if you could have more then 16 player multiplayer, like lets say, 50-75, that would be the best. and if Bungie could find a way not to have any lag, it would be the most epic game ever. yet still remain a FPS. expansive landscapes, vehicles, and spartans with their own classes, like, medics and engineers, it would be truly impressive.

If you want to play MAG, go buy a PS3 and go play MAG. Just because Halo is awesome doesn't mean that all other games would become even more awesome if it was Halo.

I mean, come on. I know 250 players online in the same game at once sounds like such an amazing Idea and like it would be "s0o0oO0oOo0oOOO0o0oo00o0ooOO kewl", but there is already a game that has 250 players online in the same game at once. It is called MAG.

Why would Halo need to do the exact same thing? Why would they?

Anyways, I can't believe I am saying this, but if you really want to have MAG but a Halo version, just use your imagination. Buy a PS3 and MAG, go online and Pretend everyone else is a marine, and you are a Spartan. OR everyone is a marine. (But you are in the Halo universe)

That solves your problem, doesn't it?

and how!

Even with 8 people on a team there is no teamwork. It just becomes a massive free for all where occasionally you find someone you aren't supposed to shoot.

256 Player multiplayer is terrible. Trust me.

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

Have you played 256 player multiplayer before? Anyways it wouldn't be good for halo but 32-60 would be nice.

halo cant control its lag with 16 players, and u want 250+??

You say it like Bungie can magically make it happen, OP.

  • 07.25.2009 6:45 PM PDT

If Bungie ever did want to make a game like that they'd have to make it for the Ps3 just like zipper interactive is doing with M.A.G. obviously this is impossible for halo as it is owned and published by Microsoft.

As things are with p2p on the 360 you're lucky to get a 16 player game without some sort of lag, something like this could only be possible if Microsoft provided the money for dedicated servers which they don't do as a publisher.

Now, if Bungie made a new IP and had it published by a third party game company(meaning it could go multiplatform) the publisher could then either provide the money for dedicated servers or host them themselves; similar to what Midway and Epic did with UT3(that's why UT3 has DS's on 360) but even then the 360 my not be able to handle 256 players.

No offense, but the Ps3 can do things the 360 can't and that's just the way it is.

Long story short, you'll never see a 256 player Halo game on the Xbox360, that doesn't mean that it's impossible for the next xbox whatever that maybe but even then Bungie has to evaluate weather or not if it's practical to have that many players. M.A.G is a different type of game.

I went to E3, MAG was absolutly terrible! Gameplay was ok, but everyone thinking they can go rambo ruined it, it is not a good gam and would be very dissapointed if Halo decided to take its route!

Also to the idiots conplain about lag, its because Halo used P2P where as MAG uses dedicated servers, just like how Battlefield, WoW, and ect use dedicated servers

Was that the only real issue with it?

I'm just curious because I plan on picking it up when it comes out.

I wouldnt buy it untill they make improvements, the gameplay is just to bland and not really fun and all the idiots thinking, OMG I CAN GO RAMBO kind of ruins it too. Oh also all the vehicals are on rails too so dont expect to splatter anyone

Wow, lots of hate in this thread. Personally (and Im going to try and be as least hateful as I can be), I think it will be a bad idea, just because of lag. I can barely play 16 player custom games, so 256 would just make my xbox (not to mention my internet connection) explode.

Plus, if it had 256, it wouldn't feel like Halo, I like how all of your teammates can be easily tracked and you can give them valuable advice on the battlefield, with 256, it would be hectic and tons of shrieking voices would flood headsets.

I know you're not a PS3 fanboy, and I respect you're opinion (unlike some people here), I just disagree with it.
