Subject: Would you like this new game mode

I believe the game mode would be an interesting game type, but I don't believe that it should be its own category in the main menu. It would be much simpler if it was just another game type or playlist, like invasion. The problem if it were its own category is that because, being primarily competetive multiplayer game mode, it would distract people from playing actual multiplayer. So while the majority of people would be playing the new game mode, multiplayer would be emptied out. Either that or everyone ignores the new game mode and mainly focuses on multiplayer. In order to better organize the population of players, it would be simpler to just combine the two categories into one.

Proud Spartan II, COG soldier, Hero of time, and crowbar wielding scientist.

I actually played the section 8 demo, and even though it lacked as a game, it was really unique.

i love it but what about this idea. instead of a bomb you can call in an airstrike on the enemy cruiser like with the target designator in reach and it will send out longswords with highpowered missiles instead.

and i know this isnt the best idea what about more people like 50v50 it would be hard but fun... or too crowded

Yeah I Probably would like this game mode the vehicle drop seems like a awesome idea. Also the bomb stuff is pretty cool.
overall this seems like a great idea for a game type.

Finally somebody agrees with me! Big map + Big Game = EPIC

i liked it until i got to the part about the shop. I think that each ship should have an armory and have only basic weapons, such as assault rifles and DMRs.

This would be the perfect game mode for me. Huge battles on huge maps. My only worry would be if the 360 could handle 20 v 20. If this game mode was actually made it would be like Big Team Battle version 20.0 :D

It might have to be shipped on a sepperte disc because of the maps haveing to be so big and have every weapon and vehicle on it.

V: I can assure you I mean you no harm.
Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Alas, so many quotes, so little room in the signature box.

Am I the only one seeing some resemblance? Soooo, Infinity Ward, you reading Bungie Forums for ideas or something?

Remember Reach

This has been said before but I agree once again.

another much simpler but in similar vein thing i heard from somebody talking in game the other day was a map with like 100 people max instead of 16. just slayer but a lot bigger.
big battlefield lots of space, lots of guns, lots of vehicles and maybe a couple bases. could take up whole forge world

Well I agree it should be given it's own section. But the fact that this idea is literally the most badass gametype I have ever heard it, I have a feeling this would ruin normal gameplay. I think to fix that they should just make it so you don't earn credits, or the credits are separate from actual matchmaking.

Also, I think the squad idea is good, and another suggestion to my first point is maybe you can only go in with teams of 4 or something. Then the chain linked fences or whatever can be squad exclusive.

Last, I think there should be different types of this gametype. Maybe your slayer+assault idea, maybe something like CTF/slayer... Headhunter/King of the Hill... Etc. Really nice idea, it's a shame it hasn't been implemented. Seems too difficult :(

I'm pretty sure that's REALLY hard to achieve even if possible. It's gonna be hard to include so many players on one map, no matter the size, especially with Reach's engine.

No. 1 CHINESE ZOMBIE/HUMAN
No. 1 CHINESE TRASHTALKER (Loldon'tmakemerage)
Top 10. CHINESE PLAYERS

And Reach is my first Xbox 360 Game. ROFL.

Its kinda cool having small cod tastes in Reach, but there will be massive lag. Also, what if it had different twists, perhaps you could make some invasion aspects, or CTF, or something like that. Also, it could be 1 side of the map is Covenant, while the other side is UNSC.

How does a Phantom/Pelican bring in Banshees/Tanks/Wraiths/Falcons?? That would be very weird, perhaps for bigger vehicles you could either 1. be lowered with the Hangar coming down(UNSC) or 2. Take a gravity lift while in the vehicle (Covenant). The Points should be cR.

The moment I read Battle Rifle I loved your idea.

Constantly awesome (60% of the time)

This would work on on a map like Extinction from Halo custom edition

If there is lag, it would be localized due to dedicated servers. Like if you've played the GOW 3 Beta or Burnout Paradise online, they were on servers, thus no lag.

That sound pretty cool but make it like an invasion gametype by that I mean UNSC vs. Covenant so there would be 2 cruisers one frigate and one corvette and veicle drop by pelicans and spirits. No weapon shop too Call of Duty. Will there also be bases below the cruisers or is it just an open area on forge world also why did you put Halo 3 weapons in this is Reach?Plus what gametype would be under if it was made.
