After seeing this picture of a Taken Guardian on DeviantArt I had an idea.
Yes Griffball and Bungieball have legacy status in the company and is the product of the community's brainchild but Rift is lackluster.
Zombies in CoD and Flood in Halo saved the multiplayer experience for these games.
Destiny needs a gametype that mimics that using the Taken lore/mechanics.
12 man rumble free for all
1 starts off as a Taken Guardian only capable of using Modified Taken Nades/Melee/Super and attempts to infect the rest of the players.
Nade = Axiom bolt similar to Taken Centurion or the Area Denial Fire bombs that the Knights throw
Melee = Phalanx (lulz)
Super = Captain blinding bubble of bullshit
Thoughts on this gametype?
EDIT1: wow this is more popular than i thought
here is poll thread https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/156319354

The only real problem I see with this is fitting it into the Lore. A quick and easy way to do it would probably be to say "it's non-canonical" and boom, done.
-
We need an infection game mode.
-
I'm surprised there isn't a Taken guardian somewhere in the PVE content. Unless there is, and I haven't gotten to it yet. It would be a fun twist.
-
No. Rumble free for all is the dumbest game type ever. Keep rift and just add just add a warzone type game. Zombies are so beaten to death, no pun intended. That's the whole reason I refuse to buy another cod game because all they do is make the same shit game and just add zombies. It was fun the first time they did it. Now it's just boring and annoying.
-
I already said we needed a NO GUNS, Sword ONLY . . . JOUST MODE ! No heavy needed, no guns, Lots of blocking, tactics and fencing ! Just try and best "Inigo Montoya" I dare you !
-
This is a horrible idea. Why bring an infection style gametype to destiny? we don't need it.
-
Yes. Bungie. Do it.
-
That would be so much fun to play w/ friends, possibly drinking This & private matches please
-
Flood was a shitty game type in Halo 4. Infection was what saved Halo's multiplayer.
-
Fresh i would play it
-
It worked when they put in Zombies when they were running Halo. This seems like a great idea
-
Yes but instead, there are multiple classes to choose from(like Halo) and its between different Taken enemies and their respective abilities
-
-
I'm sorry Zombies and Flood did what now? Both of those games' standard multiplayer a were extremely successful before and after the launch of those modes. You might want a similar mode but pretending like they are the reason those games were successful and/or were played like crazy is foolish at best. There is no reason to try and knock standard competitive multiplayer game modes just because you like the party games.

Destiny Custom Games, pls

Edited by Astro4545: 9/25/2015 12:57:09 PMYes! Even if it doesn't fit the lore, yes!

Rift is the most garbage game mode I have ever played. It's like one flag CTF, but a camp fest with choke points.

This will be so fun with a group of friends

-
Great concept I would play
-
I like Rift but I do think that this game mode could be added and be very fun.
