It would be like a battle front type thing like the idea bout the ships but the way halo works you dont buy weapons

  • 05.15.2011 11:32 AM PDT

the vehicle drop system should be like the one in invasion slayer.

  • 05.16.2011 3:36 PM PDT

I think that if there's every single vehicle everyone would be in one and there were no ground battles.

Or you could have a 45 second time limit to leave the cruiser. Other wise you die, loose all your points from that round and it adds 5 seconds to your respawn time each time you do it. So next time you die you'll have about 8 seconds. And if you stay in the cruiser too long again, you'll be up at 13 seconds, and it builds from there on. Something like that so one team doesn't get tons of points and then hide in the cruiser until time runs out.

But the chain link fence thing is a good idea, except do you mean it would open it up for everybody, just your team, or just you. I don't see how it could only let you and a couple others in without letting your whole team in or even the other team.


I think the combonation of the entire team's points will unlock an unlimited amount of these certain weapons (e.g. spawning with FULL AS and DMR), so you're team isn't hogging all the weapons before you can get to them. And each kill can be 10 points (or something like that) in addition to the other bonus medals.

100 = AS, DMR
200 = Plasma Pistol, Magnum
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1000 = Bottomless Clip AS and DMR
2000 = Bottomless Clip Rocket Launcher

Just some ideas for point spending :)

This game sounds awesome! i would definitly play it! All we need to do is encourage bungie to do so. But i belive that if enough people like it then bungie are bound to notice and get working. Did you hear that bungie? hop to it! haha=)


but this idea does sound simliar to section 8. I would love to see a halo version of it though so I say full-steam ahead and bring this idea to bungies attention

"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

minus tanks, sounds like your talking about headlong ;)

and pilotable bases like the scarab would make the gametype even better.

If this gametype was ever to be made, Bungie would likely not make it. Halo has been handed over from Bungie to 343 Industries, so 343 Industries would likely make it instead of Bungie if it was made

When I have time I am gonna make a gametype that is like this as much as the options can make it. So, it's probably just gonna be a Slayer Gametype

  • 05.24.2011 11:53 AM PDT

Bungie, if you make this you could just be better than MW3

  • 05.24.2011 12:30 PM PDT

MLG got nothin' on me

sounds awesome but will never happen

  • 05.24.2011 1:57 PM PDT

this would be an awsome map but lets say that the humans get a frigate and the covente get a frigate (the one in halo reach). both teams spawn in their ships hangers( the rest of the ship is energy shielded off untill the assalt part when you can defend it from the bomb. but both teams start in the hanger/barracks. humans start a marines and the covenet start as grunts or jackles. Humans as Marines take falcons down. and covenet take spirt down. Now each team has bases that the other team can conqure for a new spawn point. or weapons can be purchesed here or just droped off. now when somw one gets a lot of points they could upgrade their person to a odst a then the get to use the drop pod. the covent would get elits it think. then the odsts could be upgraded to spartens.(which have shields a important factor).

now the game has been going for some time and people have been buying guns well how does those guns get to you from droppods or mabey they could be flown in on pelicans and people could cetch a ride on the pelicans/phantoms

I would like to see a new map that allowed several 8v8 matches simultaneously, but in different areas of the same map. Then based upon the outcome of one match, it would allow the winning team to interfere with and interact with another ongoing match "over the hill".

That would be interesting...

Or how about a team of 6 on two falcons flying in to aid another team on the ground of 8 when called on? The air wing can work in a way that they provide air support for more than one BTB match.

I thought of a similar idea way back in Battlefield 1942, but I just said "Nah, it's not gonna happen" and tossed it out. So yeah, even 8 years later, it's still not gonna happen.

perfect idea i love it come on bungie lest do this -blam!-
Posted by:
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.
