343 will save us

I thought it would be cool if at the start of a multiplayer game, instead of just appearing out of thin air to spawn, that you would land in an ODST drop pod then get out and start the game.

And for gameplay reasons the pods could disappear during the match

It would be cool, but a little unnessessary for something like firefight.

For a game featuring open competitive multiplayer like Section 8, well coming down from orbit with every spawn does have distinct gameplay benefits, as well as just being totally awesome.

that's a pretty cool idea i would love to have that implemented into the game. and instead of it disappearing why not just have it stay and be an obstacle?

That would be cool. But I don't think it's possible to add this feature to the game anymore.

That would be cool. THey could replace the drabby respawn timer with varying drop pod sequences depending on where you were going to spawn. At 2 sec before respawn you would land. At 1 sec you would get out of the drop pod. Then your alive again.

Then again this might just be annoying. the current respawn timer is that bad at all, really.

What if you need to reuse a spawn point?
