Arrogant hyperbolic exclamations of woe? Seems like a normal day for Halo/Bungie.net.

Great idea. Plain and simple.

I'd like to see a huge (!) version of death island as the perfect map.
Simply cause it looks great and has all the areas needed for that "Big Battle".

"To be betrayed you have to trust."

Everything you've mentioned in this is good, ranging from the map layout to the players and servers. The only problem I have is that you must "buy" the weapons using the points you earn from medals. It'll be much easier if those points are converted into Credits for more money for the armory in my opinion. Other than that your idea is pretty polished and it'd be interesting to see in the game.

The part that saddens me is that the closest Bungie will probably ever get to implementing this is Invasion mode.

  • 07.11.2010 9:06 PM PDT

It sounds awesome! It should also be to where someone CAN drive the Pelican/Phantom, so they can drop people off at places...

  • 07.12.2010 2:41 AM PDT

Plus... The maps need to be HUGE!!! SOOOO HUGE that it couldn't even be able to be Forged!!! But it would be cool if it could be...

  • 07.12.2010 2:44 AM PDT

really...there is 100 PAGES! how is this NOT catching their attention!? This is like a really good idea!

  • 07.12.2010 2:51 AM PDT

Check out Heritage, an awesome 4v4 map that can be found in my file share.

Check out Bedrock. That's cool, too.

It sounds like invasion on roids. In an awesome way. It just seems too similar to Invasion to work out well.

This idea is great and i love it, but maybe instead of puting it in Halo: Reach, Bungie should make a Halo MMO sort of like the Combat Arms game. dont kill me its just an idea, and i think it might work. the problem with it is that console mmo's have basiclly almost all sucked over the years. post if u like it or hate it, and then y so. :)

  • 07.12.2010 11:44 AM PDT

just decided to come back to this thread after about 4 months, seeing as its a hot topic bungie have probably looked at it and considered it, probably will be super lag, but as you said dedicated servers

Ok, first of all I would like to say that this is a new game mode, not the entire multiplayer experience. It gets it's own special spot on the main menu, along with forge and theater. This game mode would have to have large teams, probably like 20 vs 20, and it would only be possible with dedicated servers, due to lag.

So this is how the game begins. I can't find the thread for it but somebody came up with the idea of spawning in a UNSC cruiser(or a Covenant one) and entering the battlefield with a HEV. I like this idea. So the game starts off with both teams in a UNSC cruiser. You have to find a HEV pod and go down to "The Perfect Map"

"The Perfect Map" is a map, imo, that utilizes everything. That means every weapon, and vehicle. That means that the map must have large open areas for snipers, vehicles ect... but, it must also have tight areas where the shotgun would be the best weapon, and everything in between. It would be a hard map to make but I believe Bungie would be able to pull it off.

When you enter the map you will start off with normal team slayer. The score will be 200. Once you're team scores 200 kills, you will be given a bomb, and you must finish up the game with a game of assault. However you will ONLY be given the bomb if you reach 200 kills. If blue team has 200, but red team only has 150, then the red team won't be given a bomb. Once red team also get 200, the get their own bomb.

Now there has to be a few twists. A big one I think would be adding Campaign scoring. so every time you kill somebody you get points, and you get more points when you get medals. Now obviously these points can be used for bragging rights, but maybe they can do more. Ok lets say you were doing really good, you just got a killing frenzy, but you died. You have a lot of points, because you got 10 kills, and not to mention the medals. So you spawn in the cruiser, but instead of going straight down, you go to a weapons shop. With those points you can buy a secondary weapon. Now I bet the thing I just said probably made 50% of the Halo Reach forum's population get mad, but just bare with me. These weapons would be expensive, so even though you got 10 kills, maybe you only have enough points for a Battle Rifle, or Carbine. In order for you to get a sniper, you would have to have way more points. However to keep it fair you can only buy 1 weapon at a time, so you can't go down with a sniper and rockets. Don't worry though, there will still be weapons on the map.

Now if you have been reading this far and aren't mad at me, you might like what's next. Ever been in the position where you need a vehicle, except you can't find one. Well I think we should be able to call in vehicle drops, from a pelican. You would obviously call in the drops using your points. So lets say I called in a pelican to drop me a mongoose. I would have to hold my position, for 30 seconds, until the pelican comes. If I die, the pelican will come anyway, and drop the vehicle, anybody would be able to take it.

So that is the basic of the mode I am thinking of. Obviously there are problems with this idea, like communicating with a team of 20 but people have said a squad system might work. So yeah, this is my idea, and tell me what you think.


PLEASE READ
Oh and if you want to see everyone's idea's, go to page 8 and go to AbruptArc's post. Also I highly recommend you guys look at Half Demon ANBU's post on page 10. I would post them, but I don't have enough room. Ok, I have gotten a lot of post saying I've copied this idea from Section 8, and I would like to say I didn't. I had no idea what Section 8 was when I made this thread. I just found out about it when someone mentioned it a couple of pages on, and I then googled it. I watched some gameplay videos and all I found similar was dropping from orbit(in Section 8, it's more like the sky). And so I am sorry if this idea isn't "New" enough for you guys. Next time I make a thread about a new idea, I'll make sure no other game has ever done it before.
BEST IDEA in a long long time.

The Taco Has Spoken!

I think it would be a good idea!

  • 07.12.2010 1:57 PM PDT

i like this idea alot along with some of the weapon shop ideas people have said but what if you had squads? i would go in with my friends and we would want to put our points together. what if we could share points and buy a pelican? that would be cool. then we could use it a few times for drop offs. or not. any way a pelican/phantom would be cool

  • 07.12.2010 2:01 PM PDT

First of i love you guys, you (meaning bungie) make awsome games. Now i think have it so you can buy or purchase a box or container of weapons depending on how many kills or points players may get. So he/she can help out there teamates. Also i think the idea for big game and map is great and would be worth the lag or make it so players have to wait longer to load. last but not least i would like it if you did make this idea to make this map a forgable map

  • 07.12.2010 2:13 PM PDT

For any one that liked this idea join the Tactical Big Team Slayer group this should be what the gametype is called.

  • 07.12.2010 2:15 PM PDT

good idea i agree sharing to be able to work as a team is good so players can work together and win the game.
