I think it would be cool if once u get a certain amount of kills like a 15 killstreak that u get to call in like a mac blast or a carpet bomb or maby even a vehicle of some kind like a tank

Those who think there all that are all truly dead on the inside

That would work on big map not small maps but i would like that if we did have big maps. o get ready for some flamming and stuff just a warning

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

That would definitely be ripping an idea from Infinity Ward. I'm not sure if Bungie could possibly say "It's inspired, but different."

Besides, the airstrikes, dogs, and helicopters in Call of Duty are ridiculously cheap. If you're good, you'll just get more kills (The Dogs were horrifying). The Radar was the only one I think was fair.

I bet tonnes of people will bring this up, but this isn't Call of Halo: Futuristic Warfare... 3...

That's never going to happen. Go play Call of Duty and get off the Halo Forums.

Sorry dude but its true. There won't be any drastic changes to the multiplayer with Halo Reach. Halo 3 works, so if it aint broke, don't fix it. And Halo 3 multiplayer definitely aint broke.

Sorry if I sounded like a jerk at all, it's hard to articulate your tone and inflection through words.

I'm just saying that CoD's system of getting five kills for an airstrike and getting two more for something that obliterates the other team isn't fair gameplay. A team of new players won't have a chance to get better if they keep dying and die more once the helicopter or a swarm of dogs rushes in.

In Halo, you have shields and most maps are indoors. Having killstreak loadouts in a game where getting a Killing Spree is easy as pie isn't a good idea. CTF would be impossible if one guy camps a base with a sniper and then bombs their bomb to ribbons so his team could easily steal the flag.

In other words, it wouldn't work. It works in CoD because IW built their game to support that. In Halo, it'd take a lot of working to implement something like that. If it'd work would then be a whole different matter.

It'd be interesting but it wouldn't work on all maps and is kind of a Modern Warfare ripoff. Modern Warfare has some -blam!- awesome kill streak abilities.

I've played Halo for a long time, and recently I got Call of duty: Word at War and its ok, I play it a lot. I like the idea of being rewarded after killing like 3 people in a row and getting radar on call of duty It just makes it feel like you actually accomplish something and I kinda wish Halo had it but I doubt it'll happen because people will be like "This isn't call of duty" and complain.

Anyway, if you've played any FPS before and you suck at call of duty, you should probably consider suicide.

I agree 100%, the kill streak bonus is a bad implement, especially on the COD4 model. If you good enough getting a streak 5 will instantly lead you to a streak of 10 on most maps. Save your UAV till after your 4th kill, pop the UAV, kill 5th, drop airstrike on the red dots, call in chopper, rinse and repeat.

It is a cool idea on paper, but I would never want to see something like this come to Halo. I'd rather see classes before something like this.

im not saying u should reward people who get a 3 or 5 killstreak i was think more along the lines of 15 to 25 kind of killstreak so that way u dont have a ton of people dropping in mac blasts or carpet bombs every second like in world at war

Obvious Troll is obvious.

Seriously, This idea doesn't even work for CoD, it'd be horrible in Halo.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Not necessary. And an orbital strike wouldn't work on, lets say, Rat's nest or Midship.

To end the flaming, and that kid with Recon needs to stop letting it get to his head. This person has a serious suggestion, so calm down. In my opinion, killstreaks would not work. Unless ONLY vehicle related...then maybe... MAYBE. For instance a killing frenzy lets you spawn a Grizzly tank Forge style (without going Oracle, and yes, there will be Grizzly tanks in Halo: Reach...hopefully). But I have a feeling that would throw off the game completely. General's running around with Grizzly tanks? No thanks, I'm good with vehicles that I can get to also.

If someone is doing that well they don't need an even greater advantage against the people they are owning.
