In Call of Duty: World at War they made the Zombie Mode. To compete should they make a Flood mode?

The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

I would like Firefight to return, though everyone would have their own lives (shared pool is stupid). Some maps would have only Flood, some only Covenant, some only Insurrectionists, some only Sentinels... and some would have mixtures.

Maybe this Firefight could be customizable; for example, you could scale up/down the number of enemies, set what types of enemies to fight, change spawn weapons, run speed, etc. -- if you play default, your stats are tracked and you can be on the leaderboards, but if you customize anything it only counts as a custom game does in Halo 3. (it doesnt count toward any ranking or standing)

Firefight should just return with multiple enemy sets you can choose from. Each level would support certain enemy sets and some maps would support more than one enemy set at a time.

Some set examples include:
Covenant(led by Elites)(would be Elites, Hunters and Grunts in Covy vs Covy vs Human)
Covenant(led by Brutes)(would be Brutes, Jackals and Drones in Covy vs Covy vs Human)
Flood(all variants)
Sentinels(Sentinel Minor/Major and Enforcers)
Heretics(Grunts, Sentinels and Elites)

That might be cool, but I just really want to be able to have giant battles with AI on both my side and the enemies and with anyone else who wants to join in.

Heretics(Grunts, Sentinels and Elites)

So you are sorta trying to say that it should be organized like the way Halo Wars does with its maps?
ex: a deserted desert would contain flood, a covenant base/cruiser would contain covies (obviously), and a forerunner planet/ring would contain sentinels.

I actually kinda like that idea.

Pretty much. I'd love to see High Charity in Firefight with Brutes vs Elites vs UNSC, like in Halo 2.

I want unranked to be completely customizable. Juggernauts, Hunters and Sentinel Enforcers all the way.

Or maybe suicide grunts. Or Jackals with sniper rifles. Or Gold Brutes with all hammers.

Laggen' ain't easy

I agree with everyone who says that we should be able to interchange enemies and have different maps with different enemy types. And on top of all of that I want to see a firefight play list. I do not want to have to try to wrangle up a bunch of friends to play Firefight to its fullest.

No not at all. I would much rather have some sort of variation of firefight return. As that will definitely be superior to fighting the same flood over and over again. They don't even have combat dialogue !

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Yes, a Flood Firefight would be cool, but not really for this game (the Flood arent supposed to be on Reach)
