Edit: I heard a rather scary rumor from several people in STO chat, they say that if you post an idea like this then star trek online HAS to delete it for legal reasons, is this true? I'd delete it myself but there's no option to, if it is true then I apologize, I had no idea lol
Okay, so we need a battlezone for halloween pretty badly, there's so much potential, and we have a zone for winter with possessed snowmen tormenting possessed gingerbread men made by an evil letter of the alphabet (Q), so why not?
Here's my idea, the main area would be this giant park, and it'd be dark night time, only the stars are really REALLY bright and all of them are different vivid colors (Green, orange, blue, ect), and the moon is bigger than usual hanging in the sky, and there'd be orange leaves all over the ground that you can only see with the street lamps over head. Sometimes the street lamps would come alive and start hopping around trying to get you under their light, and if you get in their light, from other player's point of view you turn into another living street lamp, but from your own you go to this dark dimension where it's just concrete that goes on forever and a single non living street lamp as the only light, and if you get too far away from the street lamp a message appears saying "What if I don't find anything in the darkness?" and "What if I'm trapped here forever and lose the only light?" then after you get a certain distance away you die and it says "You died from fear" and you respawn, but the living street lamp in the overworld stays. Also, there'd be bulldozers from construction work going on, and if you take one and ram the street lamp he turned into far enough away from the other street lamps, the player slowly returns to normal. The goal of the game would be to kill all the evil street lamps before they take over all the players. Also you could pick up items to use as a shield to stop the lamps from being able to shine on you, such as phasering the bark off of trees, picking up trash can lids, ect, but they can hop up and jump kick the shields to damage both the shield and you.
There'd also be a haunted house where you have to explore it while fighting devidians (I think that's the name of those ghost aliens) that come out of portals. All the while there'd be giant spiders and stuff as well hanging out in webs that'd punch you with their legs and create tiny tornadoes made out of spider webs that'd apply a hold while they come attack you.
Another game would be to go into a haunted forest, and when you get so far into it, the NPC that goes with you says "I hear something behind me, something's following us", and then you notice that a bunch of the sticks have come off the ground and are walking after you while making zombie noises, and you have to fight them, and if they get to you they wrap around your character like rubber and do a hold/DOT to it. The goal of this one is to get to the end so you can kill a giant living tree.
The next one is a giant lake, and there's fire flies everywhere, and when you get near it, the fire flies fly towards you and start firing dozens of tiny yellow laser beams at you, and you have to kill all of them. (Also, the more AOE your guns/abilities are, the more damage they do to the swarms), and your goal is to get into a dark cave in the bottom of it and when you get there, a giant lightning bug that glows red instead of yellow slowly goes from completely dark to really bright and starts trying to attack you, and you have to kill it.
The basic way the battlezone would work is that you'd be able to use your guns/equipment like in PVE and episodes and stuff unlike winter event, and Q would yet again be the one to set it up because he's a psychopath lol. Also, there'd be 4 zones for different difficulties, normal, advanced, elite, and "WHUAHAHAHA!", each giving more or less rewards depending on which one you have it set to. This way people can have a challenge.
Omg is this idea awesome or what?

It would be nice to have something other than Hearts and Minds for Halloween.
Which ideas are the best and which are the worst?
though ti would be hilarious to see torpedoes look like pumpkins for the day
Hearts and Minds was once a labor of love and much appreciated, but it is really showing its age.
Personally i would like to see a Halloween version of "Bonnie Kin"
The haunted house and forest sounded interesting.
lol, the street lamp idea was my favorite one, I mean how many people can actually make a street lamp scary? xD I got the idea for it from looking at the pixar logo lamp, and thinking "You know? That thing is actually pretty weird, I bet I could make a scary idea out of that" lol
I also had an idea for that one where if someone was in that dimension for too long before someone saves them, like, for decades, so long that they couldn't believe anything else was real, they'd walk through the night like crazy people when they turned back to normal, holding flashlights or whatever light they had over their head and saying "You aren't real, you aren't real!" over and over and attacking people, and if someone was in a house the street lamp would bend over to look through their window, but it's kinda hard to imagine how that'd work as a video game mechanic since I don't want the missions to take THAT long lol
