The drop system was something i did like. Maybe you have a choice to spawn their every 5th death and that is a risk your willing to take. [quote]

definitely, always gotta be an option for an idea that could go more than one way....but I think the default would be just at the start

Works for me. It would have to be tested to see, if it doesn't work, change it.

Forced armour abillity; Swimmer.

to be honest this does sound good, but this still sounds like section 8 ish. of course it'll have the halo flair but i played section 8, i like what they tried to do but their were too many cons than there were pros. i do think that this could work even if it is section 8 ish.

but, i'm still tickled -blam!-less with what bungie has been doing with reach and now i am counting the slow ass days till the 14th.

Weird book and there shouldn't be a leader at the start it should be that like after 5 minutes of gameplay the game cycles the players and picks some one who is a good team player( as in a good player record along with match record.

You could also set it up where main group goes in and after you reach like 75 kills a spartan arrives( as in every body is a stronger version of swat and the spartan is standard)the spartan could be picked by who has played well both in combat and with there team.

I like the idea of the having HEVs, but that's about it

  • 08.26.2010 2:41 AM PDT

That system I personally think would be hard to make to choose people. I think it should be random and once the leader dies, after a few minutes, a new leader spawns and so on and so forth.

Question Mark?

Thank you angel, ill see you on the xbox soon! Really Bungie has no reason for that, if you want that, go on pc!

the xbox cant do that, even with dedicated servers. Only 16 or 18 people at a time.


I bet you bungie will find a way.


No, they won't, because they have no reason to do that.

My name is Micheal J. Caboose! And I. Hate. BABIESSS!!

so it would be a mix of halo, -blam!- zombies, and some Bad Company 2? sounds awesome

YESSSSSSSSSSS I have been waiting for a massive war game for a long time, it could be a world war thing. i just would like want to look at a halo wars from a 1st person perspective. but i think you should have set spawns and kits that becomes your job and areas for specific people such as snipers are on nests in hills, infantry but they get a choice of heavy weapons or a rifle, or spec ops, or engineers spawn near vehicles. Also i want to see a dog fight like that but just every one gets a choice of all vehicles that are in there species and land and ground vehicles

  • 08.26.2010 2:24 PM PDT

I Agree but it seems almost impossible to unlock those weapons unless you are a machinima elite (shout out to wingsofredemption) until the absolute end or not at all, so i think it should go down just a bit, you could do an thing like have you r own weapon drop as well as random ones if you get so many, and do you plant the bomb on the cruiser, that would be great if you turned it into a starwars BFII thing but on three platforms. Oh IF BUNGIE IS READING THIS i REALLY really want to see equal matches for each weapons on both size but more importantly the energy sword, I wanna really see a machete or the katana [special assassination (like with the elites knuckle kives) based on your Armour permutation] or some bladed weapon to combat the energy sword if you were to do a sword battle

Tell me what you think and list down any Ideas for bladed weapons that would go great against the energy sword.

  • 08.26.2010 2:40 PM PDT

this is a game mode where there's a full war going on :D

  • 08.26.2010 2:42 PM PDT

GREAT IDEA very well thought out. Maybe Bungie will put this in a DLC and dedicate to you allowing you to name the game mode and all anyways im nto creative enough to add ideas but believe me Bungie will at least look at the idea a time or two and thats something.

we can always hope!

Good idea. I have some of my own ideas for spawning though...

1) The cruiser.

2) A UNSC drop pod, like the ones in ODST. (one downside, your spawn time would have an additonal three seconds added. But load outs are the same. You can also watch as a person that looks just like you climbs into a pod and descends to the battle field, at any random place.)

3) Spawn on a 'battle bro' like in the beta. (one down side, load outs are limited, and if your 'battle bro' dies before you spawn you atomaticlay spawn in the cruiser.)

  • 08.26.2010 5:58 PM PDT

Haha, I know that naming the game type would be good for thinking of the idea, but the question is, who would get to name it? I mean, yes ujjval16 did think of the basics but there was a lot, and i mean a lot of people who did some refining to make it more playable and not just chaos. I would say have a poll put up and a few names from this thread put up on a vote and the winning name is it. I think this because Hawkeye4488 spent a lot of time on this thread and i spent some time but not too much, not like hawkeye. Along with this, their were many people, like i said, who added many ideas and thoughts that were good, and even the bad ideas helped.

The cruiser is not supposed to be always spawned on. The thought of a mobile spawn is alright but i think a stationary base spawn is best. The cruiser should have limited loadouts as well and yeah, the ODST pods would be used. Spawn time added i do like as well.

Overall, good thoughts and ideas.

It does sound like a great game type. These big team games can are definately fun after you've been busy playing the more competitive squad based ones for a while. It isn't completely practical without dedicated servers but it sounds great and i would play it along side invasion and generator defense. I would also like to know where the bomb gets placed

  • 08.26.2010 6:08 PM PDT

Ah, I see. When I read it, that is what I came up with. Thank you for enlightening me.

  • 08.26.2010 6:15 PM PDT

The bomb would be in front of this building in the main "In Map" base for each team so once it blew up, a hole would be in the wall and you could get the flag.

  • 08.26.2010 6:17 PM PDT

Any time, check page 131 for about 45 different rules for the game, i posted it. its verryy long though.

I think it would make an awesome game mode but i wonder if you can save up scores and then get bigger and better guns and vehicles. There should be a fireteam thing like in invasion like 5 squads of 4 on each team. Could it be like spartan v spartan, spartan v elite and elite v elite cuz that would be awesome. the bottom line is that it would be awesome but you could tweak a few thyings and give it and an awesome name. good thinkin buddy

Does people come down in PODS?
How random is the landing location, possible for you to lead your landing?
CAN YOU LAND ON SOMEONE?!?

  • 08.27.2010 8:03 AM PDT

I was just thinking, but maybe could the cruisers circle the map so you can spawn anywhere? because if it circled you could get different angles for different spawn locations.

People start the game come down in pods.

You land on the side your team is assigned

possible? yep

depends, but there would be an option, for multiple drops, and it would be possible to own someone with your pod lol...hope that cleared it up for you
