From Sundown:
Follow HaloCommunity as we celebrate the release of Halo 4 with our next site tournament! Join us for an awesome and fun tournament in the Flood game type on November 24th at 1:00 PM EST! That’s right, we’re taking the Flood experience to Custom games for an epic, double-elimination free-for-all! Work together with other Spartans to stay alive, or rack up points as a lone wolf! But be careful not to turn your back for too long, for those you will be cooperating with one minute may be coming to infect you the next!
For those of you who may not be familiar with the new Halo 4 game type, Halo 4’s Flood mode is a round-based, ten-player game. It is a truly asymmetrical experience with the added twist of dynamic teams, making every game a different experience… especially during the incredibly action-packed and intense final seconds.
At the beginning of each round, two players spawn in Flood form, and eight players spawn as Survivors. Survivors are standard Spartans equipped with shotguns and magnums, while Flood move very quickly and can only use a melee attack. When a Survivor gets killed by the Flood, the Survivor will convert and re-spawn as a Flood. The round ends if a Survivor makes it to 3:00 or if all players are converted to Flood, and a new round with new teams will commence.
We will be allowing the first 160 players that sign to compete in the tournament, so mark your calendars for November 24th, and keep an eye on HaloCommunity.com for signups to open soon! Here is an example bracket for the tournament: http://bit.ly/FloodFFA. Maps and game variant downloads will be available when signups open!
It wouldn’t be a HaloCommunity tournament if there weren’t some awesome prizes, would it? Our champion will take home a Rocketfish Wireless Headset, Second place will win a Season Pass for Halo 4 War Games, Third Place will score a set of Halo 4 FPS Freek Infinity Controller Add-Ons, and the runners up will receive in-game armor codes. Various avatar codes will also be given out to participants for inter-tournament accomplishments.
