I was bored yesterday and needed something to do, so I was messing around in Halo and had then it hit me :idea: I made a new multiplayer mode that I call... Bumper Hogs!

I've only tried this in Halo 2, but it should work in the other games. I set everybody to have no shields, damage resistance, and start with a pistol. There are no weapons on the map and the only vehicles are warthogs. I'm still working out the details and I want it to give points for whoever is the last one standing rather than who gets a kill. It's really fun though. You just smash into each other until your hog blows up. I played it earlier today with my dad and sister. Coagulation/Blood Gulch seems to work really well, and Zanzibar was OK.

Any body want to try this at home and see what they think of it? I can give more detailed instructions for making the mode.

Very interesting! I love to get the information to make one of these games.

I love the hog, when playing co-operative with Katala, I always offer her the tank so I can grab the hog. :thumbsup:

Okay, we got everything fixed so now I can give the instructions. We even have a 'last man standing' point system! Start with Slayer then set everything as follows:

Match Options
-first to 3
-unlimited
-none
-on
-on

Player Options
-16
-1
-5 seconds
-5 seconds
-no shields
-on
-off
-off
-off

Team Options
-off
-sum
-on
-on
-none
-10 seconds
-off

Slayer Options
-off
-off
-off

Vehicle Options
-no respawn
-warthog
-warthog
-none
-off
-none
-none

Equipment Options
-magnum
-none
-off
-none
-map default
-off
-off
-off

Some of these probably aren't necessary, like the Team Options section. The stuff about one life only, resolve ties, three rounds, etc. are the 'last man standing' stuff, so you might not want to change those. I haven't tested it, but you might try a team version where every driver also has a passenger with an SMG or something. Just experiment with it to make it however you like. The only thing I would recommend that you never do is turn the shields on. Kills will be very, very rare if shields are on.
