yeah but i think instead of all of the time slowly retreating, you and your squad consistantly move foreward, slowly through the waves, as if your trying to get to an objective or something like that. when a you're faced with a big challenge, be it wraiths, hunters, chieftains, or chuck norris, you might loose some ground and fall back a bit, but once thats dealt with and your cleaning up grunts, i'd like to think i'm moving forewards, gaining terretory and moving to complete an ultamate goal. eh?
From the look of some of these maps, there isn't much to be gained by moving forward. Remember, ammo and health is usually where you started, so you'd just be going back and forth.
when i was thinking about my idea of a basic firefight map and it turned out kinda like...
you and your squad are in a room, courtyard, whatever. a sealed off area. there's obsticles and different altitudes, higher grounds turretts, all that good stuff. and then you defend the rock for one wave (actually until the game stops to give you health and ammo, but i dont remember how many waves that is so i'm just gonna say one wave) and then you reload, heal up, and everything.
and you have as much time as you need for this and the covenant doesnt come at you.
you go to them. *gasp* haha
you open a door, open a gate, pass a one way barrier, idk whatever the guys at bungie get paid to come up with. and the covenant are there, waiting for you, and its a new environment. similar, but fresh. the turretts are new, not ripped off. the walls aren't broken (at least i think those things that were breakable covers in the trailer were walls.) and all around its similar, but its not totally new. it'll still be dark, or raining, city or forest. same basic environment, just further on. and then you repeat.
anyone catch my drift? i think this could add some great story and feeling into firefight, say you start out in the jungle and you need to fight your way into the city and once there, you defend from that point, or you start at the end of a bridge, and then once you fight your way to the end you defend a larger building that the covenant previously had.
so its like your taking from them.
