Subject: Firefight: Better with 4 or 6 People?

Considering the Rookie's squad consists of 6 people, wouldn't it make more sense to allow up to six people for Firefight?

You don't have to have 6 people to play, but it would be nice to have 6 slots instead of 4.

This is mainly an issue for me because having a maximum of only 4 players means, that some of my friends will have to sit out. :(

Six isn't too much, and all the game play mechanics will still be the same (ie. dying loses one life).

Just as a reminder, this poll doesn't ask what WILL happen, but what you would like to happen.

What do you think?

It's going to be four, but six would be fun.

I'm more concerned about the two player per Xbox limit. It's gonna be a pain in the arse to lan if everytime we need to bring another 32" tv and Xbox.

We still have to remember, that at least there IS some sort of split screen.

four.

six would be too much to keep track of.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

I would think that 4 would be good, its enough people to survive and the more people put in, the more enemies need to be put in or else it is weak....

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

Four. It is my belief that anything more than that might be too easy. You could just make a wall-o-bullets at anything that comes near you.

Four is the perfect number, as it forces you to utilize teamwork, allows for large area control, yet also grants the possibility of spreading your team too thin thus resulting in being overrun and ultimately back to the pregame lobby (if that's where you end up once you are out of lives in Firefight).

Six, to top Gears of War 2's Horde mode.

But then again, even with just four players it'll top it. I voted six though, the more the better I guess.

Four, anymore would be hard to work with as weapons would be low on supply for all and connections would be as good.

i like acypolipsis idea for 7
but i think 6 would be more fun, i would probably end playing with 4-5 so the extra leeway would be nice. and for the wall of bullets, that would last for about 3 waves tops, then ammo would run out and you would probably die soon after, so you would still need to work together.

i would like to play with the skulls off and just go for as long as possible and just have more enemy's being dropped off in each of the following waves.

The flood was here! Muhahaha!
Finland is awesome.

5. Johnson too + the 4 ODST.

  • 06.04.2009 8:01 PM PDT

I hope it's at least 6, would put GoW Horde mode to shame. Plus it's rare to only have 4 friends online playing Halo with me since it's our main game.

Regret is the domain of those who have earned the right to look back on the past. All I have is shame.

4 pwns all (except 7).
If you don't like the fact that there are 4 people, blame stosh.

  • 06.04.2009 8:06 PM PDT

It would be nice to have 6 or even more people playing FF but sadly you only have the 4 characters so i can't see who would fill the extra spots on the team.

I'm thinking IF IT WAS 6, then there would be more enemies.

Basically, the more players there are, then there will be more enemies that spawn.

Discounting the impossiblity of 6 man coop, and simply put....

4's a party, 6 is a crowd.

There should be a player limit cap. If you want four ODST shootin' it out, set the cap to four. If you want a six man squad, set to six.
