I've always wanted a kind of horde mode. Where its in a multiplayer level, and you have to face off against an endless onslought of covie forces, and whoever survives the longest wins, or something to that tune. Just battling it off in an endless 'last stand' kind of massive onslought would blow me away, like perhaps covie forces get dropped off by dropships periodically, or are warped down or something. And at the end of each round there would be stats, like shots fired, enemies killed, grunts killed, elites killed, etc.

Just the idea of strapping onto a turret and blasting away endlessly starship troopers style would be phenomenal. But I dont think Halo would be taking that direction with multiplay, Im not bothered though, since I dont expect them to do it, just a nice thought.

That would be kind of cool... it reminds me of the challenge modes in TimeSplitters 2.

Take any opposing base and use it as your spawn point for the horde. That way you could do it on any map.

I'd also like to choose different mixes too. Fighting off the newly redesigned Flood would be awesome too.

If Bungie did it it would certainly make them stand out, because while UT2004 has a mode similar to what im describing, its not nearly as cool as if you were facing off against endless covenant forces. I can just imagine huge survival marathons with my mates. Turrets would really be fun to use also. Like I can see the first wave being just grunts, then it slowly gets harder, and more diverse in enemies. And yeah a flood mode would be rad to.

Especially with the inclusion of vehicles. The horde could have access to them. You'd have to decide whether to ride out to meet them and beat them down... or let them use the vehicles to assault your base making it much easier for their infantry to break through your defenses.
