Best Song ever: You Cant Quit Me Baby by Queens of the Stone Age

Also Guns and Roses are the biggest load of pish-posh ever

This is just a whimsy, but I wonder if Bungie will put in Filters for firefight. By this I mean you can filter out what units you're up against (say, make them all Hunters, or Brutes).

It could make a game more challenging (depending on what units you filter)

Obviously...unless they were all suicide grunts.

oh gawd

After I played Killing Floor (in which you can filter what enemies show up) I would probably like that feature.

Wouldn't you shoot them before they get to you?

You can try to. As the waves go on there may be too many to deal with.

If I could control the filters, I'd make it all Hunters, or Chieftains. Why? I know I'll fail, that's why.

7 lines isn't long enough for a signiture! =P

Na, they would never do that because people would just make it all grunts to get easy points, survival times, achievements etc

Could be fun, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to filter only grunts if thats what you want, if you find the idea boring just don't do it.

You would probably have to disable scoring though, or at least prevent the score from being uploaded to the Online Scoreboards for fairness' sake.

@recon (post above me) just make it so achievements can't be earned with filters on? Seems fair to me that way.

The filters would be reflected on the site (or by multipliers, say all grunts = a 0.75 multiplier, which would reduce your overall score)
