Juggernaut
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Juggernaut is a multiplayer game type available in both Halo 2 and Halo 3.
Basic Setup
- There are two teams, the Juggernaut alone, and the players hunting him.
- The only person who can earn points is the Juggernaut (hence the title).
Juggernaut is a somewhat perverse and twisted form of tag. While it resembles Slayer in that one must amass so many points to win, there are two major differences.
The goal is to kill as many people as you can if you are the juggernaut, and to kill the Juggernaut if you are not. To counteract the angry mob of Spartans and Elites out to spill his blood, the Juggernaut is sometimes blessed with greater shielding power after assuming his title, plus a variety of other customizeable things, such as Active Camo, running faster, increased damage, damage resistance and infinite ammo (this doesn't mean he does not reload it just means he always has the same amount of ammo in reserve). This is one game variant where alliances can quickly go sour.
Popular Gametype(s)
Hide 'N Seek
The objective of this game is to not get killed by the juggernaut, hence the name. The juggernaut has an overshield, and the players have active camouflage. The juggernaut radar is turned off, but player radar is turned on. Map Default or Pistols for map weapons, and the sword and pistol for the juggernaut & players. A suggested level for this is a small level (eg. Lockout)
Trivia
- Juggernaut was originally planned to be in the first Halo, under the name "OGRE".
- As of February 2008, the only Halo 3 playlist including Juggernauts is Rumble Pit.
- It is wise not to throw a grenade when you are about to be Juggernaut as you could betray your team mates.
