Complicated is right. I like the idea, it would make for interesting multiplayer. Keep 'em comin'.I had a similar fantasy about playing Halo2 online that was a lot like that now that I read it. Basically I'm hoping for very large multiplayer games over XBL (say 100 or so people in a game). The games are treated somewhat like a war and depending on your kills to deaths ratio (0-30% you get basic unit, 31-50% you move up, etc.) you have the option of starting the game as a Marine, Spartan grunt or whatever. Bots would fill in various ranks so the first few games wouldn't be all grunts vs. marines with SMGs. Anyway, you can gradually climb the ranks, get the proper recognition, weapons options and bonuses. That way, you'd really be scared if you saw a Spartan or Gold Elite because they would have to be almost unbeatable. I like the Human-Covenant war idea, but I don't know if Bungie is willing to put in the time to take it quite as far as you or I am thinking.
