I just wanted to see how many of you played Halo Soccer. I seem to remember a long time ago reading something on Bungie.net talking about Halo Soccer in an article, so I was under the impression that the guys at Bungie knew about it. Do any of you see this potentially being a Multiplayer gametype?

For those of you who don't know what Halo Soccer is...

We would play on Blood Gulch, for example. Two teams (play as an untimed CTF game so kills don't matter). Play only Rockets, with shields and health boosted to the max. Turn on vehicles as well.

Each base in Blood Gulch is the "Goal." A Warthog is the "Ball." Put one Warthog in the middle, and put the other one away, hidden in that cave or behind a base. The goal is to blast the Warthog across the map, and when it touches the opposing team's base, you score 1 goal. You can use the Scorpion, Rocket Launchers, Grenades...hell, you can even get in the Warthog and try and drive it to the other base if you think it helps.

The goal of the game isn't to kill, but to score. So while killing opposing teammates is ok, it's not the point.

Got it?

i like your idea, excpet for one minor flaw. getting into the warthog would kinda be like carrying the ball, wouldn't it?

nah, driving it would be like dribbling the ball. whereas shooting it with rockets, etc. would be like heading or kicking it.
