Does anybody know if the players will spawn on a ship and then drop pod into the firefight map, or if they just spawn? I don't mind either way, but dropping in might add a nice litte planning time and maybe a nice little machinima tool, even if it's just a short little cutscene or whatever. Thanks!

ODST drop FTW! We will most likely just reapwn, but it would be cool if we dropped from a drop pod.

That is actually a good idea for a re-spawn. You have a re-spawn timer but you are in a drop pod and can kind of control where you land. Doubt it would happen but would be GREAT and really fun.

Two makes there more than speakers.

It would be great to have but it might cause tremendous lag.

Welcome to bungie, you have no rights. play nice!
CLICK!

Imagine... all the pods... Could be good but...

On a side note, I dreamed of ODST. It was firefight and there were hordes of enemies.

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

Probably just a spawn. Dropping in would be cool though.

Would be cool to drop from a pod but still, why? even though u can pick were to land

Section 8 right?

On topic, dropping out of drop pods would be great for the respawn, but what if you hit a phantom?

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Nope, just spawn.

obviously it would only be the first spawn and the next spawns would be on the ground. heck, maybe if we keep this thread alive long enough and enough people respond to it, Bungie will notice and possible implement it

That would be cool, but it is probably too late to integrate.

It would be cool. Pick you gear and grenades, then step on in. And once everybody hits the ground, the fight begins.

that would be EFFING AWESOME!

too late? Bungie still has another 3 months before it's released, I don't think it would be too hard to intergrate, they already have a cutscene in the start of campagin of dropping in so they could just alter it a bit (granted this is still alot of work from the limited knowledge of video game desgin I know)

in the new transformers game you respawn as a meteor and crash back into the arena

I LOVE this idea. If Bungie really does put this into the game I would forever love them... more than I already do.

Look who's talking...

Two people, I dropped in the southren part of the map. It was a small d shaped piece of land, on the shore of the island. There was a forest a bit to the north. On the map it showed the Estern and northren area as city area. The North Western was some kind of rocky place, the map also showed the South western place as a red spot, like lava or something burning, very big area.

So there were hordes of enemies when I advanced into the forest. I was swimming my way to avoid the enemies. Then I reached the middle west part. North was the rockies and south was the red area.
Then I woke up.

Heh, that'd be really cool. Make for some great machinima intros too.

Dude, TOO LATE TO INTEGRATE? The game is released in late November. It's not too late to implement anything.
