only 14 more days until we find out if your idea is in the game or if were going to have to make it in forge world


I am pretty sure it wont make it to the game, it was introduced awhile ago but i think bungie was more focused on reach then these forums quite possibly. Also, DLC is quite iffy to because like someone previously mentioned, there would be only 4 people working on it.

13 DAYS TILL HALO REACH RELEASE DATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it sounds A LOT like section 8, but im not saying that its not TOTALY AWESOME!!!

  • 09.01.2010 5:12 PM PDT

The idea is great, but what if it had more of a campain fill to it. for instance each side has its own ai support players like grunts, hunters, marines, ODST, ect. Each team would have starting units but could call reinforcements by using points, similar to the weapon store or by a drop ship.
it might change the game a little to where the bomb was like a victory move, but if the timer ends before a team detonates their bomb then the team that inflicts the most casulties wins having enimies wieghted to other players might be worth 20 and marines 5 and hunters 12

I love all of the halo games, they are the only reason i got a xbox. I think cod sucks and they need to stop makeing those games. I have pre orderd the ledgendary edition of halo reach and is planning to show off my flaming armor.

yeah it would be cool to have ai in it but i think it would be to much for the server. but i have allways thought that it would be cool for it to be a real war. like there pelicans flying around and phantomes every where i think that would make it the best game ever.

I beleive the name of this game, were it to even come to exsitence, and just for the epic side of things should just be: "THE WAR",

  • 09.01.2010 7:16 PM PDT

It would also be epic if, like in VS. firefight there were stray grunts, jackals, elites, Etc. and on the UNSC side there would be Marines...
But that would require it to be Covie VS.. UNSC..unless thats what you meant.. I'm confused... :S

ok its a good idea... but it would have to be its own game... and take out that buying weapon stuff... do like in invasion gameplay you capture a territory after some time passes a couple power weapons or a vehicle drops... the player who caputred it can say which they want between vehicle or weapons but they can't choose specifically which one... 20vs20 would need an incredibly huge map... maybe 16v16 or something with 4 teams of 4 on each side that you can spawn on... each squad spawns in a lil bit different area but on the same side of your team.... and there could be 2 different bases kinda close to each other that could be bombed instead of just one cuz once the other team gets there bomb the other team will super camp there base waiting to get to 200 kills... so two bases will make it a lil more strategic... also the being flown in thing is kinda pointless dont you think? why not just spawn in the bases or something... sure being flown in is cool and all but sorta a waste of time and power.... and having different weapon loadouts and abilities would definetely be great in this game....

hmm, maybe the weapon buying was the wrong approach, of course there would have to be an option, but maybe....I'd have to put more thought into this...but there always needs to be an option....I'll add more when I'm not as tired

Thats some calcalulating! Though, when you say that, it seems so shorter than 12 days!

I would make it so one team spawns on a ship and another team spawns on another ship and to reach the battle they ride pelicans or phantoms down to the battle. As for weapons the go down to the battle with whatever they want the weapons are on infinite spawn so everyone can get the same weapons without out it running out. Thats my Idea on how the game should go.

  • 09.02.2010 9:24 PM PDT

Sounds like it would get a little crazy. But thats my type of gamemode.

  • 09.02.2010 10:40 PM PDT

Never step into a fight without a knife.

You are -blam!- Kidding me. U just described Forge World, before they even made it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know, the "Perfect Map" and all. Tight area's, relatively huge environments. And you also said something about weapons that call airstrikes orsomething? Yeah, they made the Target Locator which can call 2 or 3 orbital strikes or something. (Only in Firefight and Campaign) Holy crap!

A pint of sweat, saves a gallon of blood.
-George S. Patton

If you bump up the ammount of kills, this would be an awesome game, I'd say 500 kills.
Think about it this way:
200 kills - 20 teammates = an average of 10 kills per player, and not nearly enough to get a decent weapon.

500 kills - 20 teammates = an average of 25 kills per player, and coupled with bonuses, would make enough points for a decent weapon.

I also like the fact that only the GOOD players could get the power weapons, that way, noobs wouldn't be able to win just because they got to the sword first.

and you should be able to get armor abilities from the shop, sprint being cheaper than say, armor lock.
