OK, so since Bungie has ample time to develop Reach , I thought to myself: why don't Bungie include a free-roaming, fun mode? It wouldn't be some strange kids fun-fest; rather a selection of large, Blood-Gulch-sized maps where you have the ability to simply mess around.

In this game mode, you could do the following:

- Choose any Halo race you wish to play as in the "Reach Party Mode" lobby, and customize this character.
- Edit the map extensively whilst in-game using an improved Forge mode.
- Create simplistic bots for scenarios.
- Have up to 14 players.
- Create your own Scenery Items for Forge.
- Choose from the following map layouts: Blood Gulch, Slipspace Bubble, The Ark, Flood Hive, High Charity, New Mombassa Earth.

Yes? No? Yes but with a couple other things (comment)? You choose.

Just rock to the rhythm of the funky Rhyme, So i can get busy just one more time.

1 thing is that having 14 players would be a step in the wrong direction since you can already have 16 players in Halo 3

I thought this might help get a grip of the idea's workings.

Reach Party Mode's Features - Detailed

Playable Races would include:

- Spartans
- Brutes
- Elites
- Grunts
- Hunters
- Marines/ODST's
- Flood (all types, including the dreaded Juggernaut!)
- Drones
- Engineers
- Sentinels
- "Forge Monitors"
- Prophets (including Chairs if you want).

All these races would be allowed the colours allowed in Halo 3, with the inclusion of Black.

I'll be detailing the map layouts soon.

Think of the lag though. Forge only allows 8 players for lagg reasons. With this amount of options available, 14 players will be pushing the Xbox 360's limit!

Reach Party Mode - Map Layouts

- Blood Gulch - self explanatory. Open, canyon style map with two small Forerunner bases. The perfect party mode bliss on Alpha Halo.

- SlipSpace Bubble - Everybody spawns on a small piece of ready made land, which can be deleted. From here, you can build space-style scenery and constructions, such as Longsword fighters, Seraph fighters, Orbital Defense Stations or even UNSC/Covenant/Forerunner ships.

- The Ark - The Party Mode map for Forerunner fun. You can build all kinds of Forerunner madness on this streatching plain on The Ark. Items/buildings include Forerunner structures, buildings, Citadels, rooms, control panels - even Setninel Production Factories.

- Flood Hive - The home of the parasite. The entire place i a massive open space where the roof, walls, floor and most the placeable objects are composed of Flood biomass. This map also allows you to burn the environment.

- High Charity - The home of the Covenant. This would be, IMO, the best map. Literally the biggest map on Halo ever, it would streth for miles from the center (where the Forerunner Dreadnought is) to about halfway to the edges. This allows you to build a Covenant dream - buildings, architecture, vehicles, military positions throughout the area, gardens; everything.

- New Mombassa Earth - the perfect Human map. A fairly big human city area, you could remove buildings/skyscrapers for space if you want, and replace them with military buildings etc. You can also take a trip up the Orbital Elevator if you want.
