OMG

i agree there are not enough game types in match making and there is not enough optons in custom games to set them far apart from the match making there should be different options like making the wepons start with no ammo and (as in halo) unlimited granades i loved that option.

Yes, be able to beat legendary seems to be hard but with a co-op player that is advanced as you need you would be able to slaughter the covenent.

I think they need to bring back levels from the first Halo, along with levels from the second Halo. On XBOX LIVE you should be able to pick levels from the first Halo. I hate the, everyone invisible, nothing but swords. I also hate when your in the middle of a game and it goes to the loading screen. I hate friendly fire, I'll be tring to shoot the enemy and these dummies, that don't know what is going on, start shooting me dropping my shield making it easier for me to die, then they get killed so it gives your enimy two kills insted of one.

good iade fatizio that's funny, it would be slaughter,the vet would do some mad multi-kills and it would be good blooding for grunts, but the points gained for killing a vet would be disproportionate to the skill level actually achieved by the noob, they'd gain the stat ladder faster but still be -blam!-. i'm assuming you get more points for killing a higher ranker, it would screw up the match-making.

  • 02.26.2005 5:56 AM PDT

OMG

this idea of noobs killin vets is a stupid idea and the only ppl who seem to like it are the vets that get beat on the match making

I think that random weapons rules on all game types. If you add anything to the game, it should be random weapons and random vehicle slayer on a new map or on assault. There’s nothing better than having revenge on your killer by sending him a rocket to say sorry and no hard feeling’s, sucker!!!
I think if you want to give the public a real game, including the ps2 lovers, you must have some good content download. What about new weapons, vehicles and players. I would pay BIG £££ if I could get the latest colour like a jet black or a metallic blue. What about new emblems. I would love a Spartan with a new helmet or body kit. Different colour face masks maybe? Elite armour could be a wise idea?
Thank you and hope that the content goes well.

Bungie, you did it in my books. Both Halo and Halo 2 have been my favourite games ever. Waiting for the third Halo.

I think random weapons is only good on unranked games that way your not risking losing a level or anything when you play it. Random vehicles is just stupid becasue one team may dominate because they get all the good vehicles. Bungie I think it would be cool to have more character models on multiplayer. If you could add a regular marine or a jackal or maybe something else it would be cool just for more variety!!!

Ok but what do you mean "random vehicles" ? like is there going to be like diffrent vehicles? like an ATV or a plane? or like cool vehicles? sorry i have A LOT of qeastions. Well If you wanted to make your game sell more so people will like have to have add random vehicles like....Diffrent kinds of hogs, tanks, banshee well maybe not diffrents types of banshees but other flying vehicles like a helicopter like an apache. Maybe you can have diffrent maps, oh Ok I know you can have the game and like every week, month watever you can update more campaign maps and have and update like every week for a new vehicle.

Ok i can keep going but ill stop here and wait until u answer.

So what do you think talk to it with the counsil and other people in your staff.

Yeah, territories really sucks and it's way too short most of the time, I'm with Frostbite, ZOMBIE can really be an in halo live game but, it should go by rounds, four rounds, who ever stays human till last should be the zombie on the next round, at the end of four rounds whoever stay'd human the longest should get first place.

real quick: you guys who want zombie are dense. bungie already said it most likely will not come out.

random weapons are totally stupid in a ranked game. think about it: what is so skillful about me having a needle and they having a rocket launcher? i saw a post where the poster basically explained that the game progesses to RL and snipers, and swords... might as well just make it RL, PS, and SR.

i'd like to see some type of 2 vs. 2 variant; i think that'd be good.

um, GET RID OF THE STUPID RANK. it's just dumb; good in theory, but sucks in reality. it's a gimmick that is packaged for little immature kids [of all ages].

if you guys can, just bust out a grip of every kind of game and let us pick them. and if it takes time, hey, i hope what we're playing is as bad as it's going to get:)

there's my $0.02

peace out. -Wrath

I think the polls are bound to be skewed - think about it most people who come here are not just casual gamers - the group that benefit the most from fixed weapon sets - newbs and casuals always come off worse because they don't know that to win on the level they need to leg it to x, y and z.

Higher ranked players have strategies based on that knowledge and have a vested interest in the status quo. I say help balance the game add some random elements most notably random weapons on map - not only will it help break up the stranglehold of the top teams that rely on guides to get them the good stuff first rather than plain skill in getting kills.

Plus it would relieve the tedium of having to get to the grav lifts on Ascension (rocket) and Colossus (Beam Rifle) or the Ghost charge at the start of every Coagualtion match as the teams head for the Rocket to stop you just getting owned for the match.

I would however be against random starting weapons if those weapons included the Ubers (includign the brute shot - but only cos that sucks :) ).

sorry for double post edit wasn't working -

Thought I'd quickly add that I don't really want the old Halo 1 maps on Halo 2 - I did before but I don't think that Coagualation translated very well and although Battle Creek is okay I'd prefer fully fresh content made to get the best of Halo 2 rather than ill fitting maps that I've already played for years.

i think this could really fly, and it's fair.
before i start, though, i want to say this:

PROBLEM: rumble training and team training are flawed in that brand new players can be, and most often times are, for the sake of being new, which is not their fault, owned all the time because anyone/any rank can join. i'm a 13, was a 15, in team slayer, and me and a friend decided to try out some team training. well, we and everyone else got owned royally by the other team because they had 3 22's. YIKES! that was fun...

so here's a solution, and then some, to the problem of being matched up with players that are advanced, relatively speaking of course.

SOLUTION: i suggest setting up training in the same way, with the same idea, as regular matchmaking. i think you should only allow people into training game with approx. the same ranks. this way, we can really train at our level.

on top of the training BY RANK, i also suggest allowing us the oppertunity to train with, and only with, any of the higher brackets (once you go up a bracket, you can't go train with the lower bracket(s), but the catch is the lower brackets have the oppertunity to play with the higher). this will keep the less experienced players safe from ownage, and i think they will probably be more likely to stay in the game. at the same time, by allowing us to train with the higher brackets, (if we so choose) we will get better by playing better players. for me, i learn by playing better players, not players at my own level who think about the same.

chew on it, bungie. maybe even start a poll that expresses this idea.

later.

There is nothing wrong with random weapons, it takes away any preference a player might have with the original settings. It stresses the use of a variety of weapons rather than specific weapons. It has alot more positives than negatives, i wish they would make clan matches with them or just a slayer type game in general.
