Jumping to Hell since 96.

I'd say FPS. Thats what I want.

Check out my file share! It will be updated occasionally with my new best maps.

Is there even such a thing as a Second Person Shooter? I can't think of what it would look like.

Let's see here, of the past 3 Halo games that Bungie has made, how many of the have been first person shooters? Seriously I wonder if there is any brain activity in these forums other than mine sometimes.

The only possible way I could see that happening (based on the second-person point of view in literature) is if you played from the perspective of the people you were shooting at...now THAT would be wierd...

It's not completely finalized yet (as nobody knows), but I hope it's an FPS.

And we're supposed to know?

BTW Third person shooters are always better for squad based games.

Things I Want
limited jumping. One of the things I don't like about Halo 3 is that everyone hops like a bunny on multiplayer. I know it is a useful tactic, but having something compensate for that might make the game seem more realistic.

Sprint. If you read the books, all of the spartans could easily outrun a car without breaking a sweat. I want to see that in a game.

Slo-Mo Feature(maybe). Again, if you read the books, when the Spartans are augmented, they notice that everything seems to move slower. I don't know if they could implement this in multiplayer, but having certain battles in the campaign turn slo-mo could have a dramatic
effect.

Selectable View-point. I have always though that Halo 3 could be fun in THird Person, maybe giving you a chance to see your MM armor othr than on your corpse.

Bot Matches. This feature could possibly get more sales to people without live, and could be great practice for groups or teams,or just people without friends, without putting Rank or EXP at stake.

Campaign Armor Customization. it could be fun watching you and your friend's characters act out the cutscenes.

Armor Customization affects HUD. It wouldn't drastically change it, but changing those subtle lines that are normally around the outside of the HUD could add to the immersion of the game.


All of this is just my opinion of course, and this game may not even have online, co-op, or armor customization. It might not even use a standard controller. These are just general suggestions assuming that the game is similiar to Halo 3.

The Almighty Darklord

Definitely RPG.
'Master Chief Summons Warthog!'
'Brute casts Plasma Rain'

Oh yeah.

Jk, I hope it's FPS though.
