I'm neither for classes nor am I against them; however, your logically unsound reasoning has forced me to be very much a proponent for the inclusion of classes in Halo: Reach. Perhaps it will compete directly with Team Fortress 2.

Well I guess I better put some pants on.

I feel like I'm gonna break this thing!

Sniper and rocket class? Sounds awesome.

You aren't helping at all. If you actually have good reasons why classes wouldn't work, then share them. If all you are going to say is "iTz stoopid", then please, just go away.

Here are some reasons why Halo shouldn't have classes:

-Classes are overused in the FPS genre
-Classes can unbalance the game
-Classes don't stay true to how the pass Halo games have been

3 good reasons why classes shouldn't be used, not just "iTz stoopid, and bungee R smrt"

How do you figure? His post was grammatically incorrect in several instances and he really didn't say much besides Classes bad! Bungie good!

Everything will be gone long before me. When the first living thing was born, I was here, waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job is finished. I'll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and lock the universe behind me when I leave.

You're right. I'm totally convinced! Classes are stupid!

  • 08.02.2009 4:34 PM PDT

Reasons why you are ignorant:

1) You fail to grasp the concept of self-BALANCing weapons.
2) Some of the best games ever made are class based.
3) Who are you, a kid who can't even use proper grammar say what Bungie will or will not do?
4) You are obviously a fan boy who gave the idea of classes no thought whatsoever
5) Your reason #2 and #3 are biased/opinions and therefore null-and-void.

mabey the classes won't dictate your weapons but insted, the attributes of you character, ex. one person can run faster, but deel less melee damage(vice versa).

Irony makes the strongest men fall to their knees!

UGH!...enough of these threads please, both sides don't realize that this will not work right. I don't need to post what I said in the other threads here, do I? I think a new forum rule needs to come up saying no more of these threads are causing people to argue with each other on such a stupid topic.

I might as well cross my point on this one, I mean really?

*sigh*

Now I'm going to be fair and not base this on COD.

What makes Halo unique with it's system of starting with all the same weapons then finding better ones is that you never run out of ammo. I've been at points in TF2 were I have no ammo, and am hunting down an ammo crate. I had to stop and look for ammo, when in Halo I can choose to pick up an all new gun. Same thing with both Battlefront games and Battlefield games. (Even CoD but I'm not going to focus on that)

I've never had a point where I had no ammo, I mean if I could I would throw my gun at someone or just go bare knuckles and punch someone in the face, but I can't. Honestly somehow I have a feeling that if Reach had a class system that would slow down the pace of the game, and they may have to drop a lot of the weapons they have worked really hard on.

Unbalanced.
Not true to how the past Halo games.

-Classes are overused in the FPS genre
Who cares? Show me 10 other people who agree.
-Classes can unbalance the game
Actually, they make the game more balanced. (i.e. TF2, Star Wars BattleFront, etc.)
-Classes don't stay true to how the pass Halo games have been
Past... in all srs buisness, Reach is a new game. Has no number after it, and is it's own game.

In short, I really don't care now. But I wanted to counter your logic. As some of it failed.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Or maybe if Bungie had any common sense, then the Sniper class would have weaknesses which offset the range of the SR, and Rocket class would have weaknesses which offset the power of the RL, etc. etc.

Classes would not be just about what weapon you spawn with. It would be about movement speed, jump height, melee strength, shield strength, shield recharge rate, etc. and would probably be 5 classes modelled after the 5 different Spartans in the banner (Heavy, Recon, Assault, Close Range, Long Range)

You know I disagree with almost everything you post on these forums, but today I agree with you here.

Since people who don't know what they are doing fight them.

Sorry I was a little harsh. but I am just sick of people shooting down other peoples ideas just because they don't like them.

1) That is what I mean by self balancing weapons. The have equal an equal amount of pros and cons that make it so that you can just point, shoot, and kill. It takes thought, and proper aim. For example, if the rockets had less ammo (only 2 shots) they would already be less appealing because after using it, you only have a side arm.

2) I respect that opinion. The only reason why I support it is because if a team has you pinned down in your spawn, you can spawn with weapons that don't leave you helpless (IE Halo 3 AR)

3) I used to have bad grammar, I didn't mean to lash out. But I am 15. And before you ask, yes, I have had several girlfriends.

4) Again, I lashed out. Sorry. I was just tired of seeing so many negative responses that didn't seem to have any thought put into them.

5) Then you might want to state that they are jokes. Because I thought you were being serious. Which caused me to lash out at you.

But please, read through this entire OP, and then tell me what you think. I don't want to change your mind, I just want you to read this threads OP thoroughly so you can understand where I stand on this topic.

thank you for your opinion. 1.if you choose your starting weapon by classes it will unbalance the game because some one can choose a rocket launcher and own all the peoples in the game and completely unbalance the game. 2.i dont deny that some of the best games are class based i just dont think that it's for halo. 3.im sorry for my improper grammar and who are you? some adult who is a stuck up halo fan and doesn't have a job? 4. yes i am a fan of halo im not some one who makes the game my life though and yes i have given classes some thought. 5.reason 2 and 3 were jokes.
