There is a certain point of tolerance that should never be reached.

This thing is still living?

Wow.

Nice job OP, simple, so they can understand it..

that is a great idea lets do it !!!

  • 08.16.2010 11:03 PM PDT

Wouldn't it be crazy it THIS was the 7th game mode?

Gamertag: regime change
Steam name should be something similar

still on the top forum chart. if its not already secretly in the game its probably going to DLC or just be some kind of update. its pretty much impossible for bungie to have not seen this

happy gas:)

C'mon. You can easily get to 100 kills in a game with 8 vs 8, so getting to 200 with 20 vs 20 shouldn't be too hard. And the server problem...well yes...that is indeed something they need to work on, it currently takes me at least 6 minutes to find one game. As for uneven teams, when one team looses a certain number of people maybe it can pull from those who are searching and bring them directly into the game. Or when a specific number is lost, it will end the game. There's a lot of things that could be changed.

see i would say use dedicated servers,also maybe if one player leaves put a bot in there place until that slot can be replaced but after 10 people have left over 3 minutes the game will end

I've thought a little.

Instead of having the Shop System or a locked area/chest/whatever, you should be able to buy certain loadouts depending on how many points you get.

You should also get the ability to change the AA of any loadout you have unlocked for an extra price. However, certain loadouts can only have certain AA.

Also, it shouldn't be available to you whole team, mainly so you don't have a stupid kid on your team wasting them on "Tanks" and "lolRocket" loadout. Getting certain loadout through medals seems like a cool idea in my head.

This is my opinion, and hopefully keeps this thread alive, for I just LOVE the idea.

EDIT: Also, you should have a limit on what loadouts you have available. You can buy extra slots for the loadouts, and the price increases the more slots you buy. You start with like 5 slots (you start with 2 or 3), and the max you can buy is 10.

Also, you can delete a current loadout you have, but you shall only receive a refund if 1/4 of the original price of said loadout.


nice idea, however, 10 loadouts is a pretty large number, but I can see it working, we need some more people like you helping with the idea.

precisely, for 20 vs. 20, to get 200 kills, each person has to get just 10 kills. So there would have to be larger numbers involved...

Servers, it would need its own server, thats for sure...

Uneven teams, good thing Bungie upgraded to an active roster huh? people can now join mid-game...provided there is a space available

lets hope, no way Bungie hasn't seen this, plus, they would've had to read through all the pages...SO SORRY, but still, that way they could get more ideas for this, to top it off, and to improve some ideas

  • 08.17.2010 1:49 PM PDT

good idea but i think its to close to release date for bungie to do this

  • 08.17.2010 4:29 PM PDT

Deaths an illusion you can always respawn

i dont think its a matter of would it be a good idea opposed to is it possible .

server capability
and
too much happening -like when trip mine piles go off games slowed down - people buying , explosions , 2 (or more) HUGE vehicles , large vehicle and much more all at the same time could slow the game although i expect it could be done with 4 players in game like in co-op it may be harder with 40

feel free to correct me

this is Halo: Reach, there aren't tripmines, there are some in forge, but those would have to be added in

for the rest, in order to prevent lag, the game mode would need its own, VERY dedicated server, it would have to be large, and possibly have morethan one server, to support all the people/games on it

I came up with my own idea for a game. This is pretty much invasion but a little bit different. Check it out.

The game mode would be a mixture of Oddball and Territories. The map would be very long and pretty narrow. A little bit longer than hemorrhage but thinner. There would be 3 gates dividing the map into 4 pieces.(The gates wouldn't be physical, they would be a shield door that you can't walk through.)

There would be 2 teams that spawn on each edge of the map.(I am thinking either 10 or 12 players per team, spartans vs spartans) In order to open each gate, you would have to capture each territory to open up the next gate. The territories wouldn't be far from the next gate.(once you open up a gate, a teleporter spawn at your base to take you to the action so you don't have to walk so much) Once you open up the gate, only your team can go through it. (unless the other team gets far enough to open that gate.) Each team would keep capturing the territories and opening the next gate. When each gate is opened your team gets a small weapon stash next to the gate such a shotgun or two.

At the middle of the map there would be a scorpion and other power weapons. (So there would also be a big rush to get to the middle) The majority of the combat will take place in the middle of the map. There would also be a mixture of offense and defense because the main objective is to get to the other oddball and pick it up but you also have to defend your oddball.

Each base would be 2 stories high. The base would be as wide as the map so you can't go behind it or on its sides, but there will be more than one entrance. Snipers and a spartan laser would spawn on the second story, so the second story would be for sniping. The first story would be where everyone spawns and a small weapon stash such as DMRs. The oddball would spawn towards the back of the room on the first floor. There wouldn't be too much cover on the first floor but enough for a little bit of defense.

As soon as anybody picks up the opponents oddball, that team instantly wins. Sprint would be the main class to choose so you can open each gate quicker.

I know that this is basically an improved version of invasion but please give some ideas and feedback please.

I just realised a flaw from my post I made around a year ago on this. It is one of the first couple posts. People could hide on the cruiser by purposely staying there and letting their spawn time go up. It shouldn't make a longer spawn time I guess. Just maybe kick you after a few times.

  • 08.18.2010 12:58 AM PDT

Spartan never die,they're just missed in action...

It's a great idea man,but i'm not agry with the 20vs20,this will be the most laggiest game of halo story.
Dropped in the battleground like ODST?Yea why not.
Armory System?I prefer the loadout,maybe you should make your 'perfect' loadout.
I think 10vs10(spartan vs elite) will be good for your (great) gametypes

That would be sweet! I had the same idea exept you would have to buy units using xp, you coild color them and upgrade them,and battle online.

Sounds a bit like Invasion. I'm not sure that Bungie would use special servers for one gametype because that would cost quite a bit of money. The gametype sounds interesting but in my mind doesn't seem 100% feasible.

um...whats an HEV...

Holy -blam!-! You are onto something great!!! This, anyone could enjoy, including just Slayer fans, or Objective fans.

This, eveyone could play, and it could even have it's own ranking system, that would be beast. Also, have you thought about implementing other Objectives into this? Like maybe, a one bomb tactic, where you have to buy a bomb with your points, and everyone gets a chance to arm the bomb, and anyone could have a bomb, but the points on a bomb would be ridiculous.

Or maybe a based is locked down, and it costs so many points to unlock the base, so that you can get their flag, once again forcing Slayer into Objective. Everyone wins.



And maybe the higher your rank, the better weapons are avalible to you?

I love the idea. But some of these ideas I've read make it seem like it'd turn into Call of Duty. But seeing as it's a separate game type and not the whole multi-player, it sounds great.

It's a bit late now, but it would be good if you could pay points to be an elite (This would serve as an advantage due to their increased shields and health, and they look cool too).
