These is an awesome idea. But it would be much better if you could make this in a custom game lobby so everyone could make whatever they want. It would also be cool if you could toggle Health bars as a custom game setting. And everyone can join any custom game in an online custom games lobby. xD

BAsicly you want bungie to make to where you can build your own game?

I like it too, but a couple things bother me or rather inspire me. I have an idea that goes with your unsc crusier and points idea. First with the cruiser how will you get down? In a rather inspiring touchdown like the dawn in halo 3 every 45 seconds or so or like utilizing the on bourd pelicans for dropdown points on the battlefield, that a fellow teammate is driving.(same thing for covenant, but with the side open door one) My second point considers the accumulative points you get from each kill. I think that if you have enough points you should be able to gain access to the unsc mac blast or covenant super-weapon beam from the ship, and that there is a team pool of points from everyone that, if you reach the amount, can use up to 30 mac blast or a super long lasting covenant beam! There is other things as well, like if you use the pelicans for transportation to the ground you can also call in an air raid for a team-mate in trouble at the time, but you would still have to land on the ground. And if someone uses the pelicans too much then there will be a cool-down timer at the top of their screen.(same for covenant) Last but not least I personally don't think it would be fair for the covenant side of the fight, because the unsc have better equipment and armor abilities like cloak and run,whereas the elites can't run and have the same weapons as before, but you could even the fight by adding more players to the covenant side.

Hope bungie reads all of your guys' good ideas!

p.s. I completely agree with the custom games lobby ideas!

I'm not convinced. Perhaps more exclamation points are needed.

I do like your idea. The Halo multiplayer should have a massive multiplayer experience much like Killzone or Mag if the 360 is to compete with the PS3. I like the idea of a massive Team Slayer battle. 20 on 20 sounds great. Like you said, it needs dedicated servers...
I very much dislike the idea of a "weapons shop." Well, I dislike the way you decribed it. Players, once dropped on the map should be restricted to stay on the map. That means no respawns in UNSC bases or cruisers. Such respawns would take away the "feel" of the Halo Multiplayer Experience. The option to choose weapons before respawning would make the game more like Call of Duty, and to be honest, I like The Halo Multiplayer idea of finding your own weapons... Here's a thought. A player can access the shop, during gameplay, but not before respawning. (The player should first make sure there are no enemies around, as they can kill him or her while he or she accesses the shop.) 20 to 30 seconds later, a UNSC or Covenant (depending on player class 'Spartan,' or 'Elite,' or anything Bungie may want to add) weapons drop takes place on that location. But like you said, it would cost points earned from kills. I do like the idea of pelicans or phantoms dropping vehicles for players to use...
Which brings me to my next point. Before the teams can access the bomb, and make their final assault, they need to reach a total of 200 kills. Not points earned from kills...

In addition to the idea of "the perfect map" why not create a few perfect maps? Instead of one?

Ever play Gears of War? I like it's game type Warzone. This game type has rounds of elimination in one match. I would like to see something like Warzone (team elimination with rounds) in Halo multiplayer. And I like the idea of 20 vs 20.



I don't know if the 360 could handle massive online games like MAG. Maybe it could do 20v20 but I heard that PS3 beats 360 in processing power or something like that.
You don't need a ton of precessing power fora massive online game. you just need dedicated servers.

More good ideas to pile on :) but the more point based things we add on, the more problems we have.

True very true

  • 02.24.2010 7:32 PM PDT

this seems like a really great idea (might lag, it might not i dont know)
Imagine dropping down like you did in the scene in ODST but you actually get to control your pod

  • 02.24.2010 7:33 PM PDT

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

New game type!!!!!

Survive the Wall of Text

i like the idea but i dont think it would be able to put on the same disc as campaign and multiplayer since it would take up a crap ton of space by the sounds of it but i would love to have a game type like that to switch things up from the usual spawn kill spawn and then have to change games to do something like assault

A different disk opens up to more games we come up with to.

That sounds great, I just don't like the bomb idea I think it should just be slayer all the way through.

  • 02.24.2010 8:10 PM PDT

I HAVE TO SAY THAT YOU ARE ONTO SOMTHING, BUT REALISTICLY, THIS GAME TYPE WOULD NEVER SUCCEED. 40 PEOPLE IN A GAME WILL SPELL LAG. BUT IT WAS VERY INTERESTING TO READ ABOUT.

Proud member of ReadyUpLive!

you had things going so well until you mentioned purchasing weapons at the store, then I just stopped reading.

  • 02.25.2010 4:20 AM PDT

omg i got kinda the same idea as you except it is like dropped team gets to one point, defending team prevents them

Let him have his opinion, but he shouldn't have stopped reading. Please don't start an arguement.

*WARNING* bad grammar

For this gametype they should let you join the game in the middle or leave like c.o.d ( i <3333333333333 halo alot more) but since its such a big map and type that the game would last a long time you should be able to go in or out. Also imo i think we should be in a cruiser in low orbit and spawn inside a weapon debot. There we pick up some of the default weapons and then either get in a pelican (passenger or pilot if bungie allows us or a falcon) and fly down to the map. Or you could get into an odst drop pod or an elite pod from H2. Your idea= godly =]

i think i would like it. sounds kinda like call of duty but yea. i like the HEV pod drop idea.but u could also choose to spawn via pelican.one guy drives while the others hang on for dear life. imagin this, u get to a pod or pelican, click and hold RB to enter, get shot out of a carrier or cruiser, u can STEAR to the place u want, and the pod or pelican opens up and u enter the map. the other side could be in a covenant ship and spawn via gravlift or dropship.i think that would be cool but hey, bungie kicks ass so im good with anything.

  • 02.25.2010 2:50 PM PDT

I would like this game mode but seriously make it bigger like MAG. (no im not a ps3 fan boy). im just saying 20vs20 doesnt seem very big. make 100vs100 and that would be intense.

That spells major lag, 20 v 20 even spells lag I'd like to reduce it a little.

Lone Wolf assassin

Good idea Bungie should consider adding it as a DLC or something

  • 02.25.2010 9:53 PM PDT

So who likes SWAT?

I like every idea about this. How about making the 200 kills something like (not points for killing people points) points? Every kill adds one like slayer, then add capture the flag/objective during the game for extra points? Like capturing this territory adds 5 points or capturing the flag gains 10 or something along thoses lines? Bomb idea is great but make it at every 50 point intervals? If the bomb sits still for 30 seconds (depends on[if this makes it in] the beta testers average time to reach it) it dissapears until another 50 points are reached until 200 points then it just spawns again...just saying...



EDIT: just got another idea. If you quit in the middle of the game it saves your points and you can spend it on an shop on that menu to be able (when you first are at beginning of the match) to buy higher weapons instead on smg's or pistols, you get better non-power weapons such as the br (i haven't read anything about if it's in there) or the dmr or maybe even more grenades upon entering for major amount of points I'm sure. Pretty much instead of getting a weapon you hate like the pistol or AR; you get a BR for a permanent spawning weapon. No power weapons for default because everyone would choose sniper or rockets for easy kills.
