I'm HYPA!!!!!!!!

While looking round on reach forums I've found loads on mp. My theory is that will reach be the same as Halo 3, with only Spartan and Elite permunitions. I think Bungie should add ODST, Brute, Grunt and Standard Marines. Why? becasue halo 3 is stale when you just end up with two armour permunitions over and over again. Whereas if you add new permunitions it will be different experience seeing different classes of like brutes mixed together. I think it would work because there is enough classes to make the permunitions. Anyone else have another idea?

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

I didn't bother to read everything, but there are confirmed to be ODST permutations for Firefight mode.

Oops, yeah. Got confused :|

I'd like to see some new permutations, an Elite helmet with lots of spines would be cool.

It'd be good but what bout other armours rather than just elite and spartan.

That would utterly ruin the game and make it SO unbalanced and unfun. They will no doubtedly add in a gamemode similiar to firefight. People already complain as it is about things that don't matter. They would have to make the grunts just as strong as the spartans and that would be the dumbest and most noncanon thing EVER. I know it's multiplayer but is still has the realism that is in campaign. It's not going to happen. Nobody is going to let Bungie ruing what will be the best Halo game to date.

You don't need to add the grunts, I just said them because there was enough classes. Brutes would be the most likely to be added if they added another armour.

I think we should be able to have every character in the game available in multiplayer. Matchmaking and Custom Games could have rule restrictions against whatever character though such as grunts only. This way, multiplayer could have some balance in it.

By restrictions you mean that the jackals could/couldn't have shields? What about the hunters the only way to kill them is from behind unless you make the front shield restricted to a certain size or limit the strength of body armour.

Since when has the word ARMOR been spelt armour. Seriously has the Bungie community's IQ drop 80% in the last year.

Bungie could add the armour if they want but in cod you can pick up other weapons. plus if bungie did that no-one would play it as you could only use on weapon/

why would you want to go in multiplayer as a grunt? imagine it with a sniper rifle or driving in a warthog or on the turret

All I want are Spartans and elites. The full suits not crappy helmets and shoulder pads. All I honestly want is a full Mark V suit. As for the Brutes they are the only ones that would ever make it into multiplayer but they aren't even in the game so yeah. Well they aren't seen at all untill the spartans do operation first strike which will can easily be fit into the game. So we would see them. It's possible but unlikely.

My favorite ride at the amusement park is the cotton candy machine.
I always get arrested though.

To be a grunt they would be to give it a hit box the size of the spartan and elite roughly, odst would need to be scaled slightly bigger and brute would have to be shrunk. means a grunt would have to grow 4 feet, and jackels would have to grow a foot and stand straight up. hunter would have to shrink. all in all. it wont and cant happen. maybe new perms for people already there. but please bungie stay awy from things that will look like scout, rouge, or hyabusa

They use Armour instead of Armor in Britain, both forms are correct.

Grunts could be restricted only to certain gametypes i.e. team SWAT. then restrict the weapon uses to small weapons except SPNKr launcher and Fuel rod gun.

In all fairness, the things that are going to be done are Elites with perms... Maybe and the Spartans in customizable Mark IV. No other speicies will be present due to the fact that its all using the Halo 3 engine and that they might want to keep the multiplayer fair. Adding grunts and brutes and jackles and all then would cause unbalanced multiplayer... It wouldn't work well.

The grunts would be freakin awesome!!! They dont need to be scaled they could be the same size and it would just be awesom to do like kamakazi attack lol

  • 06.08.2009 12:22 PM PDT

The Forum Ninjas are asleep.

they put elites and spartans because they have equal sheilding, strength, speed, pretty much same breed except for appearance.

(note: i realize spartans are human "breed" is a figure of speech)
