Welcome to the official thread for HT Hardcore Season 6. The first season race will start Sunday, August 21st and the season will consist of 15 races. There will be 1-2 pre-season tournaments. Racers can sign up for tournaments under the events tab on the HaloTracks Discord. This season will feature 24 new/old tracks that have not been raced on in previous seasons. All existing maps have also been fixed/updated. HT Discord: HaloTracks Discord HT Hardcore Season 6 Spreadsheet: HT Hardcore Season 6 All tracks can be found on the HTHardcore profile fileshare or via this link: HT Hardcore Files INDEX: Schedule Criteria Format Rules Penalties Oddities Tracks Hosts Schedule: Season tournaments will be held regularly every: Sunday @ 7:00 PM EST on Halo MCC Impromptu squad tournaments may be hosted at any time by discretion as long as: An official HT Hardcore host is present. There are at least 6 participants. Season 6 will consist of 15 weekly races not including impromptu tourneys. Criteria: All racers are welcome! Participants can sign up using the events tab in discord. Official scheduled and impromptu tournaments must have a minimum of 6 participants. In the event that there are 8-11 participants, priority will be given to those who signed up first. In the event that there are 12-16 potential participants. A 2nd lobby will be created or Halo reach can be played if agreed upon by the lobby. The default number of races will be 6 per tournament, unless otherwise voted on prior to the start of the first race. Maps are randomly picked before every race from the map pool using a spin wheel. Maps that have been raced on will be removed from the map pool for future tournaments and then re-added once all other maps have been raced. Impromptu tournaments may have a set tracklist or be randomly picked from the map pool. Format: HARDCORETRACKS is a variant of mayhem racing, which takes place on skytracks modified with traps and obstacles that are designed to hinder or kill the racer. Races consist of 3 rounds with racers having one life per round. Each round ends upon the completion of 5 laps or the last remaining racer. Intentional wrecking is permitted and encouraged. Demo blocking is not permitted. Rounds 1 & 2 will start on the 2nd destination moved and round 3 starts immediately on spawn. Points are scored based on lap completion. 1 lap = 1 point, death = -1 point. Racers can potentially score a maximum 15 points, or -3 points. The amount of points scored per race attributes to overall standing in a tournament. Season ranking will be based on individual total win percentage from each tournament. Racers will be required to race a minimum of 5 tournaments to be eligible for season ranking. Halo Reach: there are only 3 laps per round (maximum of 6 points) or 2 points per lap and there are no points lost for dying. If everyone dies on the first lap then 1 point is deducted from the person that went through the checkpoint first. Rules: Remain idle until official start, no false starting. Demo blocking will not be tolerated. No going backwards on the track unless it is to make a section that requires speed. In this case, stay to the side to avoid causing any wrecks until racers have passed. Cheating or detrimentally disrupting the tournament will not be tolerated. Racers who lose their mongoose from the result of a crash must not interfere with the race. They may look at the spawn to see if a new mongoose has spawned. If so, they may head back to the spawn to retrieve a new mongoose.. If there are no mongooses available then they must jump off the map as if they were dead. No excessive griefing or trolling, play nice. No killing other racers. Permitted tactics: Break checking, shield door checking, running other racers off the map, Wait checking (you may wait for a racer to come back around so that you can take them out). You still need to have progressed on the map, you cannot sit in the same spot waiting for them. Penalties: An intentional false start will result in a -1 from your total points and will be called by the discretion of the host. Automatic disqualification from the tournament, victim compensation and possible ban from future events. Race interference will result in a -1 from your total points and will be called by the discretion of the host. The racer will receive firm penalties deemed suitable by the host or tournament dismissal, if necessary. Oddities: In the event a racer scores a 'double point', they're expected to stop at the destination and then rejoin the race where they were theoretically positioned before receiving their double point. Double points act as by-laps. In the event the lobby experiences significant connection issues, the host will restart the round. In the event a racer disconnects after 3 laps of the race being completed, their score will freeze for the round. Participants who start and quit for any reason, forfeit and receive last overall for the tournament, with their scoring counting towards the leaderboard. Any participant who believes a fellow racer is legitimately cheating is expected to notify the host immediately. In the event there is a tie at the end of a tournament, the tournament will continue until one participant becomes the winner.

Hey guys, Now that we can have 16 mongeese on Halo 3 I have been messing around with making a halo 3 racing gametype that will work with 16 players. I believe that I have found a successfully way to make it work. I’ve made a new H3 racetracks gametype using the crazy king variant that can be found on my share. All you have to do is make a hill with 4.5 length and put 2 gravity lifts (on weapon holders) near the entrance to the hill and two near the exit of the hill. Using this method all players each get one point for going through the hill and the gravity lifts will push players through making sure they can’t sit in the hill. The 4.5 length of the hill is enough that the racer will only get one point. You can also put teleporters on the grav lifts exiting the hill so that players won't be able to get points on foot. The only downside I’ve noticed so far for this variant is that most of the OG Halo 3 racetracks are budget glitched and won’t let you put down the spawn points, mongeese, and other objects needed for 16 player racing. This new variant would be ideal for 16 player racing on new maps and old non-budget glitched maps. Here’s an example below on my new avalanche map, Meliora: Racetracks (KoTH) example Let me know what you think!

Map Name: MelioraGamertag(s): xDangles25x This map is mostly terrain with some big jumps and two short skytrack sections. I used both sides of the map and some unique parts of the terrain. Best fit for DRL racing.

Shift, I will send you $10 if you actually forge a track this time. It would need to also get at least one vote.

I’m down. I wonder what type of tracks will come out of this... lots of different options.

My map is done and posted: Mt. Lelsuvius. Thanks for testing it out last night guys that was a ton of fun!

Awesome I really hope we can get some great new tracks out of this. I am currently finishing up a new track but have a great idea for a new one I’ll start this weekend for the contest.

Hey TJ! I've been well, just working a lot. Trying to get back into Halo. Hbu?

Hey guys, It's been a while since i've been on here. Still missing the old halo 3 days though. How is Halo 5? If it is worth it I would definitely buy an xbox one to be able to take part in tournaments/ racing again. Thanks, Dangles/Tay25

Back in the halo 3 days my best friend and I made two silver accounts: Danglesinurpant And Dangleinurpants. We played multi-team daily and would leave the headset by the laptop speaker while its playing porn. Was pretty immature but also hilarious. Also in Modern Warfare 2 my friends and I would follow team mates around trying to trap them in corners with riot shields.
