It's obvious that Halo 3's Theater mode was an incredible feature included in Halo 3 but what would you like to see improved for reach if it does have it. (which I really hope for it.)


Some of my ideas

An effect mode after a Screenshot is taken - to get some effects that you ordinarily couldn't

Be able to watch Clips with friends in the party - Who has ever wanted to show a friend a clip and had to do the file share leave party watch separately then meet up again.

Watch other people's action in their First Person Point of View

Filter out colors while watching films(for fun)

A Montage mode - You could select a clip and add it to a folder and then when you have all the clips you could upload it to Bungie and send it to an editor without the hassle of capturing for those who cant. For those Bungie points of Course.

Relive a moment - ok I don't see this happening but what if they could figure this out. Imagine if you barely lost a game, or you chocked on an amazing play. If they implemented Bots then you could lets say pause a film, go to options, Relive the moment. the game counts down 3...2...1... Then instantly you are playing from your position, with the settings, the players where they should be with the equipment they have. Bots would play for the other players or maybe you could play with your friends that were watching the film with you. A little far fetched but I think it would be awesome.

Others ideas

Rewind the film normally

Faster Fast Foward

A camera tilt option: self-explanatory, you use the d-pad to put the camera onto its side and press up or down to put it back into normal view

have an option to change the brightness and video effects of a film. Like to be able to change the normal picture you have to a negative, nightvision, and night effect, Ect.

RaNK HeLP OnLY This group will offer you rank help for free. We will never ask you for anything to rank you up. ONLY FOR FREE!!

those are all great ideas. I would also like it so you could rewind normally. that relive a moment thing would be amazing, but very unlikely

add a horn that says "!%*@ BILL O' REILLY" in Austin Powers' voice, and
I like how if anyone ever says a nice thing about Bungie people think all they want is Recon, and if someone says something bad about Bungie people join with them. And then after they get done bagging on Bungie, they go play the game that Bungie made

I have found that there is a glitch with theater during heavy visual effects. For example, the gravity hammer can cause pixelation when taking screenshots. This needs to be addressed.

Also, I would like the fast forward to be faster.

That would be amazing. Far-fetched, but amazing. Nice thinking!

What I'd like: the ability to go into first-person mode for other players' bodies. I encountered a glitch in H3 where I got into someone else's view in Theater mode, and the lag isn't too bad. I don't know hard for Bungie it would be to implement into Reach, but if they did put it into the game, it would be a good feature to have.

Rewinding normally for me. Other than that it's perfect <3.

Yo the names Dane the rest doesnt need to known. I am an ODST marine fanatic my favorite one is the red sargent ODST.

I would have to say theater mode should have an option to change the brightness and video effects of a film. Like to be able to change the normal picture you have to a negative, nightvision, and night effect, Ect.

agreed but if I could have only one thing it would be faster movement through the time of the match. The worst thing ever is playing a 15min getting a crazy snipe, stick, splatter w/e and having to fast forward so slowly throught the match to get to that one good part

Being able to go through shield doors would be a nice trick. I'd also like to be able to make film clips of the campaign mode, and to be able to go back in the saved films in campaign like in Halo 3's multiplayer.

Tilting the camera using the D-pad is a good idea. Other than that, I think the camera is as good as it need be.

being able to make film clips from campaign

Another thing is i was in Campaign the other day then went in theater and i could go back....idk if it got messed up or if thts how it is, but if it is like that then its kind of dumb.
