Z0MG I GOT A GREAT IDEA hope u guys like it :D:?

so ok ive been readin so far and i like what other ppl r saying. but to be honest im not looking at all the posts.
i was thinking that it DOESN'T hav to be a map ONLY in matchmaking. like if u dont want to 20v20 and just go in w/ idk like 5 ppl or somtin u can actually take control of cpu marines. now i know it sounds alot like Wars but hang in ther for a sec.. wen u control them (btw u need a mic for this part) and u tell them what to do u can speak into your mic and say 4 ex. cover me im reloding, follow me i need back-up, or stay here while i scout and inform me if u are atacked by enemy's, ect., ect. so now what do u think. but heres the down side to it. since its 20v20 and u are playing w/ 6 ppl (3v3 4 ex. though) you can only get 17 marines cuz the max amount of ppl is 20(well, per team). and it costs points to get marines (u can start off w/ 5 marines total).

Now heres the upside to it. there will be different types of marines u can hav. 4 ex. well of course reg. ones,odst,and spartan. and i just got another idea. if u get a sertain amount of points u can call in master cheif or mabye srgt. Johnson or mabye the odst squadmates or mabye even the reach guys. and another upside to it is that they hav x2.5 health so they are hard to beat. each one u beat u get a sertain amount of points from them.and if U summon them each kill they get the points will divide as evenly as possible to all your teamates. so its fair if they are kinda nooby and cant kill as well as you.

ok last thing i want to say. pelicans and phantoms. they are so awsome i meen who doesnt want to fly them. so i think bungie should also be able to put that in too

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

Genius idea. I really like to idea of multiple possible spawning options.

I have a question.

Would one be able to drop in an HEV pod right into enemy territory? I believe that this would be amazing - imagine more than 10 Pods crashing right into your team's territory.

I guess my question is this:

Would there be numerous designated HEV drop points? Perhaps one location can be right into a base, or right behind. Or in the mountains. Or in the center.

Any way you go, it will be an awesome way to enter the battlefield.

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)



1. do u know like everyone is saying u drop down in a drop pod from the spaceship / cruiser, this is my idea: u have an opption, u drop down in a pod or you go down in a pelican / phantom - as in 1st one there gets to fly! - depending on what you want however! in the pelican, you can carry upto 14 people, 10 in the seats, 1 in the turret, 3 in the cocpit, as seen in the halo games. the people that remain go down in the pods, it would be like the level on halo 3: the ark, cutscene 1, where the humans are flying down to the desert. the same happens for the covernant team, dont now how many you can fit in a phatom, but looks alot - 20, same thing again, u can drop on the covernant team as seen in halo 3: the flood, the elites drop down in covernant pods. THIS IS THE GOOD BIT: depending on how long you take that is, you can shoot the pelicans / phantoms down, instant killionaire.

Rawr Im a dino!

I signed in just to say yes. I love the idea and it would make Halo more intense. I would also want the option of not only going down in a HEV but maybe a Pelican. It would engage the ground when a certain number of people are in it(No one would be driving it) somewhat like Battlefield 1943.

Also for the HEVs when dropping you should land in an area far behind your base where you cannot enter it.

Would be EXTREMELY difficult to pull off, but if possible, it sound like a great idea.

  • 01.04.2010 5:38 PM PDT

dude if this gets pulled off, it should at least have em weapon drop off's,as i was saying, i would have an awsome mode to play at! IT WOULD BE T-BAGING PARADIZE!!!

  • 01.04.2010 5:56 PM PDT

oh and squad spwan points, u know like a squad spwans in one location and anthor squad would spwan in anther place, and u would hold the up buttion on the d-pad to talk to other squads. talking to ur own squad should be normal(no holding anything)

  • 01.04.2010 5:59 PM PDT

dude, that's just extar work for bungie, and the pelicans should be auto. so no one would worry about driving pelicans+ everyone would be spaming the use of using pleicans/phatoms. no one would be out in the front lines. the cpu merines i agree on, and the buying differnt squads would be good, but that cancles the other squad idea.+ i think in reach we play as the reach guys.

  • 01.04.2010 6:05 PM PDT

........ awsome idea dude

  • 01.04.2010 6:05 PM PDT

try to think every out in the front gets hit in the back n everyone dies, that would'nt work, sneaking around to the back would be a good streagie

  • 01.04.2010 6:07 PM PDT

i spelled pelicans wron didn't i?

  • 01.04.2010 6:09 PM PDT

i disagree, i think it would be alot cooler to fly a pelican, because you can drop your troops of, how cool would that be, say your in a clan, you have a pilot, your clan leader tells you where to go, drop your clan of,

i also think SPACE BATTLES should happen in the background to make it look like your in a suspensive battle.

about the pelicans, depending on how many points you have, you can buy warthogs, scorpian tank, or wepon pods to go with it.

how would you resolve the problem of timewasting winners camping in thier cruisers? I dont think killing them is very logical, they just cant...die, maybe there could be a timer to let to buy some supplies untill you spawn to a pelican.

Maybe it just auto-drops players after 10 seconds? im assuming the orbital drop itself take between 5 and 10 seconds anyway.
