We NEED a swords only game mode.

With the influx of new emotes, and six different swords, there really isn't a reason not to have a Swords only crucible match. No supers, grenades or melees. All guns are barred, unlimited sword energy. I mean, think about it, you see a guy 50 feet away, you both bow, and then commence an epic duel. Sword logic. Not only would this be a nice change from the tedium and repetition of the same game modes with smaller teams or flags, but it would give you the chance to test your skills in sword combat. Come on, try to tell me it wouldn't be cool to do the "bring it on" emote and then enter combat with another guardian. We need a different type of game mode, and this one would be fun and refreshing. [spoiler]And I'm not the first to think of this. I just want to stress the point that WE NEED THIS IN OUR LIVES. Thank you for your time.[/spoiler] [b]Edit:[/b] [b][i][u]Gameplay, and rules[/u][/i][/b] -Players spawn with swords -No other weapons would be available. -No grenades or special melees. Class perks would be granted. -All swords would be permitted -Blocking on swords would be buffed so that it could stop anything. -If hit with enough force while blocking the player will stagger -Swords have unlimited ammo -Players health is buffed so they can take two hits from a sword. -When a player has their super, they may activate their exotic swords ability. After the use, the sword will not be able to use the ability again until their super has recharged -Super energy is obtained quicker -Legendary swords can ground pound as their super(small fist of havoc strike) -Killing an enemy will recharge your health, as to set you on equal grounds with your next foe [i]Contributions from: Dude of Valor[/i] [i]Any suggestions?

  • The concept: [spoiler]The first time you play a match, and win, lord Shaxx will give you a bounty, telling you to do the things you've labeled as exotic. Once you complete them a cutscene will play as you enter the tower, of three legendary sword masters. One is an exo, dressed completely in black, face completely white, named reaper-00. The second is a awoken, face of jade, and samurai styled gear. The last is a man styled as a barbarian, or a raider, mohawk and armour. From each you'd get a different weapon:[/spoiler] #1: (Reaper-00) [spoiler]weapon name: Death's Raiper. [i]the reason we know the grim reaper is because of bad translation. It originally referred to a sword, wielded be the devil himself.[/i] Fast slices, low damage, poor block. Exotic perk: Pierces enemy over-shields and blocks.[/spoiler] #2: (Kansu vorosu) [spoiler]weapon: Dragons bane.[/spoiler] WIP

  • Players already stagger when a sword hits a blocking sword it surprised me that it did that.

  • Hmm.... How would it determine the Sword used by the player? Would it require the player to have a sword equipped in order to start the queue for it? If so, many casuals will be displeased. How would it prevent the players from switching off of their swords? I foresee changing the weapon while "flying to the location" being the first glitch done with that. Only thing I could see making this work, is a Kinetic Sword with no Right Trigger ability, and infinite Energy. Possibly enable a Super to be able to be done with it, probably forcing the Right Trigger ability associated with the player's Subclass Element as the ability. (Eg. Sunsinger, Sunbreaker, or Gunslinger using the Super would cause a Phoenix Uppercut). Set this Sword up as a Crucible Relic, sort of like the Spark. Force equip players, and make it impossible to drop it. I've done it! I've figured out the logistics to make a Swords only Crucible Game Type work!

    • Combine Rift into a 4v4 swords only game mode. This would be the equivalent to Grifball.

        • Meh, although you made it sound really good and have some nice ideas, let's be honest, people are just gonna be running up and spamming R3, rarely blocking or using actual "tactics".

              • It'd have to be returned to be more like Swords in Halo. Two people hitting each other simultaneously doesn't kill one another. First one to go down is the one who whiffs.
