Here is my idea fro the HUD...

On the right side, you would have a list of teammates and their current status.

Red - Taking damage
Green - A okay
Yellow - Firing weapon
Black - Dead


Here is how the D-pad could work...

Up - Move to location of crosshair
Down - Regroup
Left - Assault / Defend
Right - ACE phase (swap ammo, swap med-packs, etc)

**Note: All arrows could be customizable (diff. layouts)



I was thinking that this mode could be OPTIONAL. That way, everyone who wanted to play Halo the original way, could feel free to run and gun. But everyone who wants to play a more strategic mode could. I really don't think that this would ruin the All-too-familiar Halo feel, and I think it would be possible for Bungie to do. I really don't want flaming, its not necessary. If you wanna bash me for my ideas, send it in a PM please.

Thats kinda what I wanted H3ODST for, but that didn't happen. I'm a big fan of the books, that why I thought of this.

ya know what it would have made perfect sense to add this to odst because it would have given it a more squad feel

Yea and if they did it correctly it could be really cool...I liked how the Squad commands worked in Republic Commando because they were easy to use and looked so cool
