Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

And I'll kill anyone who says "A Deployable Searchbar"


That would be sweet! You wouldn't have to rely on idiots to tell you where the enemies that are killing them are!

I think that a Cryo grenade (based on the Halo Wars Cryo Bomb) would be pretty cool. It could just be a blast instead of a chronic effect and instead of draining shields it would slow down players and maybe trap them in their stalled or slowed down vehicles.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

-Thanks to Rocket Turtle for pointing out my typing follies.

a crosshair jammer, works like a radar jammer, but a player's crosshair goes away for a short time instead.

Um, we already have that. It's called the power drainer.

"YOUR DESTRUCTION IS THE WILL OF THE GODS, AND WE ARE THEIR INSTRUMENT."

Since you were here first, I'll be courteous and post mine here as well.
Some new equipment in Reach I think would be pretty sweet.
Security Camera. When usd, you will drop a tiny security camera on the place you're standing on. It'll last for twenty seconds, and when you're in range of it (the range would be like..from the Sword room on the Pit to Camo spawn) a square screen would appear somewhere on your HUD, OR you press a button on the D-Pad to go Full Screen. The camera would have a red and green flashing light on it, and one bullet/shot from anything would destroy it.

Thermal Goggles. (Inspired by Romeo's goggles.) When used, you would have "heat vision", or thermal vision, for fifteen seconds. It would go through walls, and would show very faintly where someone is if they have Camo.

Auto-Turret. Much like the Forerunner counterpart, this Covenant equipment would, after deployment, attack anything on the opposing side it sees. It would be about as strong as most equipment (Radar Jammer, Power Drainer, etc.)health-wise, and would shoot with the speed of a Brute Plasma rifle. It would be a purplish sphere, floating with visible gravity lift technology, and would have three "wings", similar to a PLasma Rifle's. The plasma would fire from a glowing blueish claw, like the front of a Plasma Pistol. It would overheat as well.

Recon Drone. This UNSC creation would be about the size of a Grunt, and it's purpose is simple. Seek out, and find the Enemies. It flies using wings and jet propulsion technology, small but effective. It lives ifteen seconds, and in that time, it goes out and looks for all enemies. When it spots an enemy, a red or blue star (depends on what team) appears over that enemy's head, only visible to that person's team and the opposing player who activated the drone. The drone could be killed by two shots from a Sniper, four from a Battle Rifle, and a full clip from an Assault Rifle. Plasma Weapons would be more effective.

Det. Charge - Almost like a trip mine. This explosive adheres to any surface, except it would be about as strong as a frag grenade, and would send shrapnel of whatever surface it's stuck on. It automatically explodes after ten seconds. If terrain and scenery is destructible in Reach, this could also work as a precision charge to create new areas and cover.

Stabilizers - Dual blue propulsion jets. When activated, the next vehicle you get in will be upgraded until it's destroyed. The vehicle, no matter which, will be faster, and will turn and handle much better overall, but will be easier to destroy, because if the jets are shot enough, they'll explode.
