there are some who reckon, Im one of them, that there will be a survival like game where a group of you have to defend a base or just stay alive as long as you can against a never ending wave of combined flood and covenant. Ever played mech assualt, that has a great example. I believe this will be a brilliant idea, adding a really great last stand idea. I haven't read the books, but in one of them I reckon it says a number of spartans defended an ouytpost so that the marines could get off the world. Can anyone help with this because I'm not sure.

But if I'm right, that would give a very similar idea, that you are some of the last spartans left.

Im with Comrad on this one, I think it will be a "last stand" style game where you defend an outpost (like the Zanzibar base or BG if you dont know what Zanzibar looks like) against wave after wave of Covenant troops, each player has a set amount of lives and once they are all gone thats it, you dead!

It will lead to the last guy that every one is routing on. OOooh imagine if it is a 1 on 1 at the end. Elite vs heavily wounded friend?! How cool would that be?

I just had another thought. the two last opponents, elite and friend are both going to hit each other, and at the same time they both die. A Draw out of an hours or so work. I would LMAO.

i think the game you are talking about is grinder and i think that would work really well you and a few marines mabey (or your friends) are in an outpost like BG and all of the sudden you see a huge wave of enemies coming twords you after killing countless flood, grunts, jackels and elits you think you have won when you see the one thing you don't want to see several hunters and a few brutes funning right at you(squish) just to see how long you would last me and my friend did something like that during when you are on a covie ship(after flood apear) and you have to jump to win the level and the flood never stops spawning at the end of the hallway we lasted for a good 3 min but one killed me with a pistol and my friend jumped
