Subject: Halo Reach - Tactical Sqaud Based Shooter?

I do not know if this rumour was proved true or false, but you may remember a while ago, Bungie had hired (the name escapes me now) the Lead designer for either GRAW or Rainbow Six. We can also see that, from the silhouettes, that each person obviously represents a different class of Spartan, ranging from Heavy Weapons (left) to Marksman (right) and so, I believe that with Halo Reach, it will be a Tactical Squad Based Shooter, similar to GRAW or rainbow six. Does anybody else agree?

There is no way to know what kind of game it is at this time.

Recent games is either 1st or 2nd place mostly.

Atleast we know it is an FPS, and this would be a very cool idea because if anyone has read the Halo books that is how Spartans were most effective and they operated extremely well as a team or squad.

Does not mean we are going to be playing Halo mixed with Ghost Recon. It just means this game could get a little more tactical.

Each SPARTAN II excelled at different things, so it can be fair to assume this will play at least a small role in Halo: Reach.

It could very well be a squad based shooter, but weather or not you can give commands to your teammates is up in the air. Personally I kind of hope you can.

Wait, why are there 6 pedals but only four directions?!

I was hoping more like Star Wars Battlefront...
A tactical squad shooter would just be Halo 3 all over again...
