I'm a Halo fan since 2002. And as a Halo fan, I say:

Bungie, go for Class based gameplay. And knock it out of the park. Bungie Style.

Halo can support. Bungie can do it well.

Even though I started in '04, I agree.

I don't see all this bias towards a class-based system. I have played all three Halo games and loved them yet have been yearning for a class-based Halo after playing Star Wars: Battlefront. So yes, I really don't mind if it has classes.

This thread is so biased.

Just look at the poll.

You obviously have seen my thread and here my response:

Just because a game has classes does not mean it will turn out to be like Call of Duty.

BS.

Halo is a game where whoever can get the power weapons first wins.

i like games where every one is equeal it's skill that determins who wins..not what weapon you spawn with.
you want some real BS? ok at least they had to get to the weapon in cod if you play long anof you get the best to spawn with and new players are stuck with junk..

in halo you have to get to the weapon...in cod you just play long anof untill you can spawn with it.

atleast in halo it's whhas the skill to get it not who just so happens to have had the game longer.

Of course Reach shouldn't copy COD4. But one thing i'd like to see is customizable starting loadout. And overall overhaul of MP, so that Reach MP is no longer same as Halo CE/2/3 (yeah, they're different but very similar in the end) but would really feel different.

I like the map control element and everyone spawning as equals in Halo. Instead of perks or attachments to give you the edge you fight for power weapons to aid in your control of the map. In CoD all of the weapons seem useless. The assault rifles all require a similar strategy so why have more than one. The only difference was the semiauto and the auto AR's, essentially meaning we had two. There were essentially three snipers; bolt action, semiauto and the .50 cal. The second bolt action and semiauto sniper didn't have a purpose. In a class based game everything is too balanced. It creates boring gameplay in my opinion. I think anyone who wants to change Halo in a negative manner should -blam!- off, sorry if anyone is offended but thats what I think. There are so many class based games we don't need another. Halo is great because Halo is unique.


EDIT:The M16 would be like a third assault rifle.

If halo had classes you could make then you would have a lot of people only using certain weapons, like noob combo, or a shot gun and a sniper, etc, etc.... and personally i dont think Bungie is stupid enough to do something like that.

Class system doesn't automatically make a bad game.. it's hard to balance though. And there would need to be max limit per class, otherwise we got all players going around as snipers...

How bout this. Instead of changing Halo, lets change Call of Duty, Gears of War, and Battlefield. Call of Duty can have static crosshairs and energy shields. Gears of War can be first person and have dual-wielding. Battlefield can be a fast-paced, close quarters, run and gun Quake clone. How 'bout that? 'Cuz change is good right?

Prone would actually be useful for sniping. Making your self a smaller target would be much more effective fr sniping.

It would also make the gameplay slower so bad idea.

I understand why we wouldn't want a class system but seriously don't lump going prone up with Call of Duty because news flash. The prone position has been around far longer and has been used in a variety of shooters before CoD came along.. I don't see it too far fetched for Spartans using a prone position. After all they are "soldiers". I just don't know how it would work with an Elite model because I can't imagine an elite laying down on his belly. lol

For every action, there is an equal and opposite airstrike.

One thing that Reach may want to pinch from CoD is the ranking system. You get XP, you rank up, and everyone can be the highest rank wth enough grinding. No boosting, no hacking, no lolol General Walls on Standoff, everyone is equal.

No, I don't like TrueSkill. I care not for irony in my core mechanics, and Halo Wars has a similar way of doing it the CoD way too. There's TrueSkill to help match you to fair opponents, but everyone can be a General with enough playtime.

The problem with the CoD ranking system is that you can get to 65 in no time. In halo you have to beat a General to become a General. I think the Halo Xp system is far better than that of CoD. In CoD you get XP even if you lose. In Halo you have to work to rank up. In CoD it is just a matter of time.

Page 9? Does nobody care anymore? Are we just going to let my thread die? I had to bump it twice in a row. Oh well. If I get no responses after this post I'll guess I'll just have to leave it to die....
