Many of you here are very opposed to the idea of a class-based Halo. I can see why because the same formua has been so successful for so long, but I believe there is a way to add not exactly class-based gameplay but more of a "specialization" kind of thing.
Since the weapons in Halo are not meant to be balanced or good for classes, classes could not exist where you spawn with your choice of weapon. Obviously, everyone would just pick the sniper or rocket and there would be no point in the classes. This would just destroy the game. This means that the only thing that would pertain to "classes" would be your character's preformance.
What I suggest is where you choose what your Spartan excels at. This could easily be done by going to the normal menu where you change control scheme, armor, etc. You would choose "Specialty" and a list of specialties and what they do would come up. This list would include things like:
Fighter---------------------Melee attacks do 25% more damage
Scout-----------------------Active camo lasts 50% longer
Airborne-------------------Jump height is increased by 25%
Survivor--------------------Shields are increased by 25%
Accelerator---------------Speed is increased by 25%
Heavy Weapons--------Turrets, missle pods, lasers, and rockets do 15% more damage
Pilot------------------------Vehicle speed and weapons damage are increased by 10%
Sniper---------------------Weapons with zoom can zoom in 15% more
This is just an idea of what it would be like, not actual suggestions. Bungie would be much better at balancing them out, but you get the general idea. With this system, you would have so much more customization that would only benefit your style of play and not take away from the gameplay. Please share your thoughts on this =)
P.S. If anyone has a good idea, I will add it here
NEW IDEAS:
Thanks go to Jacoby04 for this. Instead of this system being for main multiplayer, there could be just a playlist for it. That way, both the classic Halo fans will be kept happy, as well as the ones who enjoy more of a class-based multiplayer.
Just NO
