Arena Mode !Zombies!

[Black Hand Smith]

Note: This is a post I made back in my old forums a while back when it was still active  a few months ago. I have now brought it here and added some new minigames and skins for my new map concepts

 

Arena mode is a brand new concept for zombies. Think about it as a vs mode involving 2 teams of 4. 8 players in total can play at once and compete against each other in a series of minigames.

 

When starting a match you can customize your characters. You can create a brand new character from scratch and even chose their voice style. Choose gender, clothes, accessories, etc. The key to unlocking these new items is through the new level up system which I will go into later. The important thing right now is gameplay.

 

The setting of Arena mode takes place in a non-canon Roman style Arena in the post apocalyptic future. The person who judges the players is a little girl named samantha that sits on top of a giant teddy bear throne. The story here is that both teams are fighting for food and water. It’s survival of the fittest. The arena changes terrain whenever a mini game starts.

 

When you spawn in game you will find yourself in the center of the arena on a flat surface. There are no structures just spawning zombies. After a while the Arena will change into a map that resembles one of the previous maps such as tranzit, nach, moon, etc. Each mini game has an objective which must be completed before the other team has the chance to. Each time you complete a mini game you obtain a point. At the end of the match whomever has the most points wins and their team gets a bunch of orgone.

 

Orgone is the key to leveling up. When you first play a match you will see a glass jar. As you complete easter eggs in survival mode, Play arena matches or just kill zombies you will obtain orgone which means life energy. Your jar will fill up the same way you filled them up on moon. When you collect enough Orgone you will level up and unlock new accessories for use on Arena Mode. Prestiging happens automatically and does not affect the items you have. Each time you prestige you will unlock brand new weapons such as World at War weapons, Black ops weapons, or black ops 2 weapons. You will also be able to unlock wunder weapons from the past which you can mix and match by playing with the toybox.

 

The toybox is a special feature in arena mode and custom games. The toy box allows you to clear out the mystery box and switch out the weapons you want in rotation. Once you prestige you will have new weapons to choose from such as old classics from world at war. Each weapon is worth a certain amount of points and the box can only hold a certain amount of weapons. Toybox is good for customizing your matches in a more unique way. During Private Arena modes this can be done to add extra challenge to the mini games. The weaker the weapons in the box are the more Orgone you will receive for winning an Arena Match.

Arena minigames

( Note each match has a different set of randomized minigames and each one must be completed as stated below. Zombies will spawn during the mini games so try not to get downed by them either. You can’t truly die in Arena mode. The game only ends when the mini game set is completed for the match. You won’t always get the same minigames. The arena changes to resemble the old maps but the actual map does not make an appearance. )

I really like this. It seems like it would take a while to get into because it's so complex but it would have a great payoff. I'm not sure how I feel about character customization though. Those and unlockables seem really un zombies like.

Think of it like this, survival mode would have the story characters. And custom zombies and arena would allow you to choose a custom character if you want. That way the story has character developement and players could have fun with customization. Like soul calibur

[Stop Mocking Me0]

Character customization should just be vital for all custom games, including turned, grief, survival, and this arena mode.

I'm on the same boat as Electric.

I get the appeal of character customizations, but I really don't like it.

One of the reasons I didn't like extinction is when I first started playing it, nearly everything is locked, took a while to get as good as someone who had played it for a long time. If its a hassle to unlock stuff, plenty of people wont be bothered to.

If the guns are the first thing to unlock, then definitely, good idea.

Back to the arena idea, I do like it.

I always thought the Timesplitters zombies mode was cool, it was based in a small room, but you were only given one gun. If you stepped outside the area you had a countdown till you died (321). That would work well if people did try to get out, it could kill them, and they'd respawn next round.

Either way, an arena style zombie map would be very cool.
