It sounds awfully like horde like in GOW2 which was so much fun to play! Halo would be more fun than GOW2 in this type of mode though since you are more mibile and in a FPS. Anyone else think so?

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

One could compare it to Horde, yes. Of course, it is a Halo game meaning it will be 100 times better.

I hope it is more like -blam!- zombies rather than horde. The only reason I want this is because you buy new weapons once you gain enough money.

Watch one month after Halo3 ODST comes out people are going to complain about how they can't get a lvl 50 in it lol.

It's more like the endurance mode seen from Marathon 2: Durandal to me.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

I believe so. It's gonna be awesome! I am also hoping that there will be multiple maps you can choose to play Firefight on. Not just one.
If not at release, they can add some for a Map Pack or something.

There won't be any difference in multiplayer in ODST, so I kind of doubt it... unless Bungie somehow decided to update matchmaking at the same time.

Also, it will have vehicles!

This will be the pwnz!

I think it will be more like -blam!- Zombies. You can see in one of the pictures, that 3/4 people in the picture are holding pistol. This just could be because of personal preference, but it seems more likely you start with a pistol, and you find new weapons, or buy them from the points you collect from kills.

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

So, constant waves of increasing difficulty of enemies.

Excuse my excitement but I'm just so happy!

Yes it will be badass, and everyone says Bungie doesn't listen to us.

Name a few other things, please.

I hope it's a Horde mode, that will be great!

This is the most exciting thing to come out for Halo I think!

  • 06.01.2009 7:31 PM PDT

"Undoubtedly this is the heretic's doing!"

Well Bungie didn't let me down. I'm so glad they finally included a co-op survival-style mode that can rival Horde and N Zombies. I look forward to hearing more details and footage on it. :D

  • 06.01.2009 7:40 PM PDT

YES INDEED! this is Bungie 's greatest game so far!

  • 06.01.2009 8:11 PM PDT

IT sounds like a halo-fied horde mode. Only its gonna be better because its halo, and we get vehicles!

VEHICLES FTW

BEWARE THE CAT!!!-

One of my best Halo 2 games
My Killamanjaro is from Ranked Infection, so it's not legit.

* Searches for homemade Bancannon... *

You people do remember that there was a poll going around for a long time in the H3 Forum, about putting a "Survival Mode" in H3, that sounds alot like the firefight thing.

And this was BEFORE the Horde mode GoW appeared.

Yes! The countless times of my wanting a horde mode have been answered!

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Horde
-blam!- Zombies
Mercenaries
Endurance

anything like these and I will be happy. Stat tracking is a must though.
