Differences between Battle Royale and Hunger Games:
1. Battle Royale is a Random backpack each, with food, water and a 'weapon' (which can include chopsticks, rolled up newspaper, garbage lid, etc)
1. Hunger games is 'cornucopia', central area with heaps of weapons and food. Exact center of cornucopia is the best weapons and food, outskirts is less useful stuff. However is a massive open area.
And I can't really remember that many other differences...
Battle Royale had collars that detonated if you were within certain areas when a time period elapsed, and these areas changed every so often to incite combat between the combatants. Hunger Games used environmental hazards to force the combatants closer together. Battle Royale dropped the students in essentially unprepared, Hunger Games had a lot of pre-game coaching.
All the more proof that Battle Royale is better.
They'll just leave an item for your skill, you might not end up getting it.
The point being it doesn't matter whether or not you get it; there is now a tank in the meta-game.
Quite simply, they're not going to put a fucking tank into the game. It wouldn't entertain the bloodthirsty, wouldn't cause enough suffering. They'll just pretend something else is your skill. I don't think they even have tanks that anyone could use before the Games, at least outside the military.
I guess you could make a deal with the other people that at the start of the game you would just not fight them and wait for them to sort their shit out, so who ever survives the initial fray can kill you quickly and painlessly with a beheading rather than leaving you to bleed out and suffer.
Realistically I imagine most people would gladly accept such an offer, and it is a kind of win.
Isn't this what's achieved by not running toward the cornucopia at the start?
