Check out the Slender Man group!

BLARG! HONK!

No reason to get mad, it's a great idea.

EDIT

Just thought of a map idea. It's a city or small town, but it's near a rural area, so there would be open spaces as well. Streets would be wide enough for vehicle use and sniping, and would also offer tight spaces such as alleys and buildings for shotguns and other close-range weapons. Just an idea.

So I read through pretty well this entire thread. I loved pretty well everything I read, Bungie, you need something to set your game apart from other games. anyways, basically I agree with a lot of the stuff said here, the game type sounds like it would be GREAT. I was thinking about it for awhile. And I thought, why not expand upon what is already there? This might sound stupid to some of you, but I was thinking ODST downloadable content. You spawn in a ship. Get some weapons using the points system people here have already developed. You can't stay in the ship for over 30 seconds, or else you lose some of your points, and the next time you spawn, you would have to leave even quicker. You hope into a drop pod, and BAM shoot down hurling at the map. You can steer and slightly manipulate where your pod is going, and when you land, the door opens (making you invincible for 2 seconds) and go charging into battle. Keep in mind that this is all using the same mechanics and everything said in the post's before mine. For example, calling in vehicles and that kind of thing. BUT with an ODST twist, and the gametype as DLC. Just my idea, go ahead, shoot it down, tear it apart, OR build off it.

A lot of this is simply a rip off of the new Section 8 game coming out... if someone hasn't already said this....

Girr Ayffs is my name

i would without a doubt play that...sounds almost as epic as halo ce big team

Like i said before, some ppl should get together to make a mastercopy of this gametype and give to ujjval16 so he can repost it in page 1 by editing. Theres already bin a 1000 votes and tons of ideas and everything.. haha but no freakin name. The idea should be condensed into something that is not too unrealistic for bungie to make, that is still possible with the xbox 360 engine, and includes as many ideas from this forum as possible, that make sense... that make it feel like halo. i.e. dont go reachin out the box hopin for COD classes and marine and brute characters with sophisticated AI resembling gears of war bots, etc.... the core of this gametype is not so much as battlefield or section 8 or w.e... the idea might be similar but in no way is it a rip off - if u check the date, section 8 was released months after this idea was first put up on bungie.net. So many ppl have already pointed out but so many ppl still accuse. Thats not nice.

Neways, Make this gametype simple, fun, unique but Do-able. And watd i tell u guys wayy back on like page 5.. someday this would reach the hot topic forums and many ppl will notice it. and so it has, hopefully bungie will notice it too. But they won't take it seriously unless the idea is summarized and has a name.. i mean they wont sift thru 23 pages worth of random ideas unless u take those random ideas, make em work together and put it on page one. This is my 2 cents. actually 6 cuz ive said this already twice b4.

Dude wheres my warthog?

An option for splitting the whole 20 man team into smaller 4 man squads based on secondary color and Nav color? such as Red company Gold team with gold over there head and blue team has blue over there heads?

  • 10.01.2009 10:29 PM PDT

Very nice. I believe this will be a positive change and refresh halo players interest in the game.

  • 10.01.2009 11:42 PM PDT

Agreed
I'm a MLG guy and I like this alot
gives me more fun things to do when I'm not playing the playlist

  • 10.02.2009 12:54 AM PDT

of i've thought of a few names but don't go all crazy if some of them sound stupid just think of something better :)

Warzone
Fight for Reach
Invasion( for this one i thought that if you hade covenant and human teams the humans start on the ground and the covenants start in there ships so there invading sorta thing)
Assault
and well that's about all i can come up with for now there pretty bad but it's a start i think to make it a sharp catchy awesome name it needs to be at the most two words. But i think one would be better

Like firefight short sweet straight to the point.

RIGHT GUYS I HAVE PUT THIS LIST UP WITH IDEAS FROM VARIOUS PAGES! - IF YOU THINK OF IDEAS THAT NOT HERE COPY THIS COMMENT AND PUT YOUR IDEAS UNDERNEITH THE FOLLOWING!


(ALL IDEAS FROM PAGE 1 - 12 UP TOO NOW!)
To ALL people that are intrested! - please read


I love this idea, oh and ujjval16 your amazing you should name it after you! - i just realised WE NEED A NAME think of some and put in the space below!

TITLE/NAME...





1. I would change, as you anticipated, the part where we go and buy weapons with our points. Inside the Cruiser, there are numerous weapon stashes locked in chain-linked fences that become available every time you get a certain number of kills or you find skulls in the world/enviroment that unlocks them but they change position each new game to stop people from memorizing them.

2. I would change the space ship part by making two ships - one covanant ship and one UNSC ship + make them smaller like scout ships and i would put it in low orbit with spacial effects like them fighting each other.

(not controllable nor fire wepons JUST SPECIAL EFFECTS to make it look like were under attack).

I would also change the ODST pod lurch by replaceing it with a flyable - Pelican for UNSC, and Phantom for Covanant because you could get loads of people in them e.g. 3 people can fit in the pelican cotpit and 10 seated in the back + 1 gunner at back making a total of 14 players or if you wanted 20 players on each team make it two pelicans and divide the team sepratley like e.g. team omega, or fireteam charlie. you would only need one phatom because you can fit at least 30 people in there even know that they wont be that many players (because there massive) and two gunners + the drivers turrets

also another idea for the pelican/phatom (they can hold vehicles like wraith and scorpian tank) so you could get them to drop vehicals off. also you could get them to drop off wepons in those little pod things that you see on halo 3 the level 'covanant' that also would be good because then you have to hold the point that you told the pelican/phatom to drop the goodies of from the enemies for like 30 secs. you could prossed with this idea by making the highest ranked person in the party like the covanant with there chieftans thats in charge of a bunch of other covanant why dont you add that in too this game e.g people that has got a the highest rank are promoted to the teams leader like vip in halo 3 but this time the leader has the comms to the spaceship that allows drops and stuff so if he dies you have to wait intill you can get more wepons or vehicals. but this dosent have to be just for the covanat you could have a spartan or captain incharge of the UNSC team! and i also thought that if you unlock wepons why dont you unlock armours/cloths for your character by finding hidden skulls (when i say hidden i mean very hidden!).

3. it would have to be a dedicated server due to lag of course and you would have to get bungie to look at this forum somehow and show that the fans want it to happen by gettting loads of positive votes. i think it would be a good game type - YOU HAVE MY VOTE.

4. teams - 20 on each team you get to creat a character for the covanant e.g brute, elite and one for the UNSC, e.g spartan (unlock somehow), odst, (unlock somehow), and marine. you creat one for each because you dont know what team your playing for and it would look plane stupid if your a spartan thats on the covanant team! (refer to number 2.) do you know like everyone wants loads of players to play like 20 vs 20 matches if that dosent work out due to the server then why dont you put ai's in to it like have marines that follow the squad leader (refer to other comments i made) - then you could have a good system - it will run smoothly and you can set the difficulty e.g legendary so that it is like fighting other players online.

(IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE IDEAS THAT IS NOT LISTED HERE COPY THE ABOVE AND PUT YOUR IDEAS UNDERNEITH SO WE DONT HAVE TO KEEP SORTING THEM OUT)

hmm interesting idea, i can't see bungie pulling this off, no offence but it just kind of seems to good to be true, having a map with everything would be so boring, i could just run around with any weapon i like, and would be so -blam!- that everybody else would have nearly the same weapons as me. There would be NO power weapons so its just plain old -blam!- COD

  • 10.02.2009 3:22 AM PDT

soz didnt read the whole post and dont know if anyones said this but is anyone else reading the ideas and thinking section 8 for the hevs and battlefield 2142's titans?
personally i think it would still be fun, but id also like spacebattles etc kinda star wars battlefront 2 style, that was epic
so far a good idea though

  • 10.02.2009 9:24 AM PDT

only thing I don't like is having to choose sides. Covenent or UNSC Hmmmmmmmm

But what about killing whores? They would kill teammates to get points and bigger weapons. Maybe killing a teammate -5 points?

  • 10.02.2009 2:37 PM PDT

would we be able to forge on this "perfect map"?

Peace not in our time but in the future.
Future generations will benefit from the work begun here today.
Gentlemen, I give you the Traxus Project"

Intriguing...but if a UNSC Marathon class is doable..why not a Covenant CCS class or Carrier...or a Forerunner Dreadnought doing site-to-site teleports to the surface for that matter?

Just spinning additions I feel should at least bear mention..

Personally, I would just say "All of the above".

And..idk maybe it's also already been mentioned several times by now.

Heck yea dude I would love this idea, ha I kinda thought of this idea after watching the live action Halo 3 ODST trailer, and I was just getting ready to post it but you beat me to it but it's fine you did a lot better then I could have done explaining it, great job.

  • 10.03.2009 7:13 AM PDT

Smerious!

Sort of sounds like section 8 with halo but still it would be a blast!
