HAIL HALO!

Id like to see new powerups such as higher damage, faster movement, higher jumps, ability to move without being on the radar, and quicker or stronger melee. Anyone else like these ideas?

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

That is easy in Halo 3. Forge a map with a custom power up. Then make a custom game variant and make the custom power up do whatever you want.

If this counts, I would enjoy it if Bungie included the Active Camouflage and Overshield in the Campaign as the same old small pyramid and cube that were seen in Halo 1 and 2.

If Bungie wants it in Match making, they would make thier own maps with the custom power-up variant, and a custom game variant.

Do you not see what is wrong with what you just said to me? If Bungie hasn't done it yet, which they could have, do you really think they will do it for a new game?

What is the point of having a powerup that lets you jump higher? Easily get out of a map? Easily get to somewhere where you aren't spose to be? What is the point of a damage modifier?

The Custom power up can do that. It can increase your speed. It can make you invincible for however long. It can make you jump higher. It can make you stronger. It can make you instant kill. It can do pretty much anything.

If Bungie wanted specific power ups like that in the game, they would have already put it in. They have the power to do that with the custom power-up.

But they haven't done it yet, because it just doesn't make sense too. They have 2 good power ups already. Invisibility, and extra-health.

How about an agility power-up like the custom, just make it its own. Another idea is make a new setting that is reaction time, like how long it takes to beat down and reload. And them make a power up that increase the reaction time?

Reaction time already exsist though. It is called you pull the trigger first and faster.

Agility power up is the custom power up, why would you make it its own though?

You cant just keep hitting the trigger as fast as you can, theirs limits.

Im suggesting making the custom different from the agility

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

They never should have changed that.
