this would be -blam!- sick if they could pull this off brilliant idea mate. i tried section 8 and the idea was pretty cool but they didnt quite pull it off but i think bungie could if they tried hard enough

Dude this is a great idea. But there would have to be more people in the game like 30 or 40. Just to get the whole effect. You have great ideas for the game, Bungie would be able to pull this off easily. And i suggest it be called "War" if it were to be done. I didnt read other posts so if someone already had the idea then give them credit.

The reclamiers

Smart idea,but the only problem we be the game would be going on for a while. I would say cut it down by at least 25/50 kills.

it s grest idea but how many points do you need to win it will be very hard or very easy to get on a killing spree. but eventually it will be hacked and glitch and then nobody wants to play it. but great idea though

  • 10.24.2010 5:50 PM PDT

This would be amazing. It would complete my life!

  • 10.24.2010 7:31 PM PDT

What in the world does the Z in ZOMG stand for????

Sounds amazing. The idea is very intricate, which could work out really well or awful. I think that if it is done right it would be LEGENDARY. But that will be bloody hard to pull off.

As fun as it sounded, I'm sorry to say that 20v20 probably won't work on such a massive and detailed map. I.. for some reason... doubt the engine could handle it. ><

  • 10.25.2010 11:02 AM PDT

This all sounds a little crazy, but ya, Bungie might, just might be able to do this. Plus, I think the teams need to be slightly bigger (maybe 24 at most) and I think that you should also have to buy better armor abilities (as in everyone starts with sprint). I would just call this mode "War".

  • 10.25.2010 2:02 PM PDT

MMM, that idea is ORGASMIC!!! But i think the bomb should be taken up to the opposing team's cruiser, activating a HUGE!! explosion! I really hope Bungie looks at this.

  • 10.25.2010 3:27 PM PDT

I think that the base is great. I have really wanted a large war type of game for somtime now. That and if bungie uses the maps people have made that would possible make that even better. Maybe come up with some new vehicle or make the scarab mobilized would make it more dramatic exciting and even more like the legendary halo franchise, and make the AI act as a important part make it more of a actual warzone make the highest ranked people the people in command. And actualy give people jobs that they have to perform. Like a driver,gunner,pilot so on and so forth. That could be like 15 of the twenty people. So make a much smaller Scarab so that about 5 people could operate it. Obviously a Driver gunners and infantry units that are basicly on board protection. Then again you just cant let somthing like that right onto the field. It will have to have like a price. Maybe you have to get 300 kills over all on your team. To get it, but there could be many diffrent ways to have it awarded. You could kinda go for a modern warfare look to it or make it uniqe like halo is. But that is completly up to the public. Another idea is that the spartans get the rail gun that was shown in the end of reach but with a limited amount of rounds.

I made a big enough map in Forge World that utilizes every playable weapon so just download "Raid" from my File Share! =)

  • 10.26.2010 11:46 AM PDT

This sounds like a great idea, but I don't like the weapons shop. Previous suggestions are great, I'd go with those.

If it was to be broken up into various squads, then it would be cooler if each squad had a various objective, which all tied into an overall story of sorts. For example:
Red Team:
Squad 1- Thin out the ranks of the opposing team.
Squad 2- Infiltrate a sub-base and disable a defence grid.
Squad 3- Eliminate an opposing VIP, and capture his intelligence
Squad 4- Search for a friendly VIP being interrogated somewhere in an enemy base.

Blue Team:
Squad 1- Counter-attack the opposing forces, push them back to their carrier.
Squad 2- Set up an ambush in the sub-base.
Squad 3- Protect the VIP and his intelligence.
Squad 4- Protect the enemy VIP's interrogation room, escort him back to his holding quarters. If rescued, eliminate the enemy VIP.

I dunno, that's just a super rough framework.

maybe not $30 but definitely $20 since this is the first thing halo would do that would be big

bungie cba to do this theyre -blam!-

  • 10.27.2010 1:48 PM PDT

id play this if it was human vs covenant

  • 10.27.2010 2:05 PM PDT

to be honest anything is possible, they probaly have taken it into consideration for future DLC or something, we cant rely on it but we can hope for it XD.

my idea- similar to GOW3, add a beast mode were you can be other stuff like jackals and stuff? but then again it would give the humans an advantage

if you have played starwars battlefont2 i think it was, they have kinda done the same thing when you spawn in a carrier and you can fly over to the other carriers

I like the idea of having 20 people in a game it sounds like a lot of fun. I think it would be nice to have some sort of objectives that you go for so the game would move along well.

  • 10.27.2010 3:00 PM PDT

No One Can Ever Change This Animal I Have Become!

Im loving the idea of the cruiser and the pods, it kinda reminds me of the spawning system off section 8. And what if when u score enough kills u could call in an ordinance pod that has a weapon (depending on which faction, UNSC or Covenant) in it that only you could use.

  • 10.27.2010 6:29 PM PDT

Gentlemen, you can't fight in here; this is the War Room!

I'm sure Bungie could at least pull of something like this in terms of level design.

Anybody ever play Wolfenstein ET?
It could also be something like Battlefield.

I don't agree with all the suggestions (buying weapons with points?) but I do think there are some good ideas such as creating a large map capable of hosting teams large enough to simulate a more 'realistic' battle (ignoring the fact that we are all super soldiers fighting in outer space)

This idea is great but it goes along with Call of Duty when Halo is nothing like Call of Duty. Lets say, in Call of Duty you can call in a care package but its the same thing in your idea but its a vehicle. I also think if you take the vehicle or kill the person calling in the vehicle you should get a certain amount of points in a way. The map would take awhile to make but I think, like you said, would be able to pull it off. I mean cmon guys were talking about BUNGIE here... I also think that the idea of 200 kills and a bomb is great! Maybe not 200 kills maybe 150 or somewhere around there if you know what I'm saying... I think its a great idea!

I think that the players should have to gain their own points for weapons, so that you dont have some idiot wasting the teams credit

YES! I think this new game mode of yours could really do some work! But the thing is that it is kind of like Call of Duty with the drop off of vehicles. It's just like a care package being dropped but in Halo Reach it's a vehicle. We, all players, of Halo REACH know we do not want Call of Duty to be like Halo Reach. This idea could really get to BUNGIE and make them start thinking. But there could be a few changes than and there like for instance, if you die when you called in a vehicle, the person who killed you and got the vehicle should get some sort of points or credits. The massive multiplayer experience could really be cool especially with the map. Therefore, the map would take a long time to make but it would all pay off in the end! Instead of buying guns with points you should buy them with kills. Let's say, if you get 10 kills than you would be able to buy a DMR or a SNIPER. It might be a good idea! This is a very creative idea and I LOVE IT!
