Its gonna be way before H3 because its gonna take place on the planet Reach where the humans were overrun by the covenant and in my opinion your gonna be playin as a spartan because if you listen to the trailer a spartan begins talking and i believe theyre trying to contact another, and the master chief was there.We should be fighting elites in ODST not brutes btw.

Damn you beat me to it :P But yes Bungie has confirmed it will NOT be an MMO and it is in fact an FPS. So there you have it, should this thread really be continued? It may be possible that they will make another game based on MMO, even ODST may be, however Reach is definitely not. Have a nice day :D

Yep, but so is Battlefield however there are still classes. There are definitely different classes in ODST and it can be played like an FPS, but it may have classes. Despite this I don't think it will be.

Not impossible but highly unlikely. That's without a doubt Blue Team. But a Halo MMO would most likely take place after the events of H3.

no stop!

A MMORPG can still be a FPS you know

That would be called an MMOFPS.


No in fact it would be called a MMORPGFPS.



... No.

The genre of MMO doesn't automatically warrant the tag of "RPG", its just the most common. MAG is a good example of an MMOFPS.

Why So Serious?

In their most recent weekly update, Bungie confirmed that Halo Reach is an FPS.

  • 06.06.2009 11:11 PM PDT

Nope.

NEWS FLASH PEOPLE! A game could be an MMO and still be an FPS at the same time! Look at MAG. Bungie just said that "Halo: Reach will be a First Person Shooter. You will shoot stuff from a first person perspective", and I'm pretty sure that's the basic gist of what would happen in an MMOFPS.

I'm not saying Reach will be an MMOFPS (even though that would be awesome), but it is a possibility. You people need to stop being so close-minded.
finally someone other than spartan delboy who gets it!

It's a first person shooter, said so in the update.

A Halo MMO would be bad, end of story.

at this point dude i dont really care what it is the main subject of all my posts has not been that it will it has been that even though it is unlikely it is still possible because things change. the other main topic for my posts has been that a mmo can be a fps and vice versa. also did anyone read the idea for ultiplayer at the beginning of page 2 it was a really good idea except for the weird objectives.

Here we are again bro... Just you and me. Same kind of moon same kind of jungle. Real number 10 remember... Whole platoon, 32 men chopped into meat... We walk out just you and me, nobody else. Right on top huh? Not a scratch... Not a f**kin' scratch. You know who ever got you. They'll come back again. And when he does I'm gonna cut your name right into him... I'M GONNA CUT YOUR NAME RIGHT INTO HIM!

Keep up the good fight AnthraxRipple. When Bungie does release this game from a first person perspective and they then maybe decide to add in MMO or RPG elements you'll be able to tell alot of close minded people 'I told you so'. Either way I think it'll be s small victory. Frig Bungie may descide to scrap the whole FPS idea two weeks from release and make it like Duck Hunt where you shoot purple floating engineers! :D

It's an FPS


And FPS games can also be MMO's.

Can't believe people dont know this....
It comes down to this: you got a lot of genres, racing, fps, rts, rpg, sports etc etc etc.
Those are genres, MMO is not a genre, its a name to point out a subgenre of another genre.
For instance, at the moment most MMO games are RPGs, but they don't have to be.
MMO just stand for: Massively Multiplayer Online.
It doesn't say RPG exclusively or whatever.
Huxley for instance is an MMO-Shooter.....

Halo: Reach will be an FPS but that doesn't mean it isn't an MMO-FPS. If we can play this game with hundreds/thousands of players this is an MMO just as much as WoW is an MMO.

Honestly I think it might be more likely its a class based fps. Like Team Fortress 2. Or at least its multiplayer might be. I mean looking at the picture its like a heavy weapons guy, a sniper, a soldier, an assassin, and some guy/girl with a weird arm.

To start off - Nice theory, I am sure it has been suggested but I'm always glad to see interesting threads such as this.

I would think that the Halo: Reach campaign may be a large scale environment not split up into different environments, kind of like what ODST is going to be with New Mombasa, allowing freedom to explore and to use our own methods of progressing through the game.

7even is Darker

You're an idiot, get out of here.


Edit: I guess I should clarify that this is my way of congratulating you on discovering a good theory that I didn't.
