Ok... now we all want new stuff in halo reach

so in halo 3... there were 4 buttons that really werent used...

some of you are like... ??? what buttons
well.. the D-PAD
yes one of them was team chat.. but I dont know how many people really used that

but if all 4 of the directions would be assigned in the new halo reach what would they be

Please.. make it realistic and not something like ( when I press up.. they all die but when I press down they all die too )

lol

but I think maybe

< = night vision ( if they had dark levels )

> = for special weapons and opps cameras ( such as if the special weapon was a sticky camera you hold *>* and use the trigger to plant it and the press the > to toggle the camera on and off - Or it could be a C4 and you could plant it and then press > to detonate

V = power up user ( so when you pick up a invisibility it does not start until you press the down button ,,, goes for over shield too )

^ = stealth up against walls so you can peak around corners

tell me what you think.. and your ideas

I like that idea. I even like the suggestions you did for each direction (except stealth... halo is about grenade spamming and spraying bullets with AR as much as you can anyway).

le7s 7he shous7ing beggin!

hey! even if i do like your ideas, i think that a weapon sorting system could be great, it could allow the player to hold more than 2 weapon!
i am being honest, this is a pick from Half life2.

if you decide to go for the "pick round corner why don't you add a laying position available!! could be great for snipping!!!
anyway! you're doing a great job! carry on.... conquer the world.....

Er... haiiz?

i think it would be good if in the campaign somewhere your group of spartans would hijack a scarab, and you control it from the ligh blue wall bit under the ramp of the scarab like 3 of you operate that while the other 2 shoot off the sides or something crazy like that, would be a great part of the campaign i think :D

Idiot. Scarabs are controlled by Lekgolo; they're not driven.

wow man, that was kind of harsh, not every one know stuff like that, especially of you dont read the books, and if you play halo wars it kind of screws you over, in one mission you have a spartan hijack a scarab, which is completely and utterly impossible.

Gosh man why do u have to spoil storyline for people. Not everyone in the world can read ya know. D-Pad to call in Air-Strikes, and Bomb with Longswords....funny....I think another game is doing something like that.

Did you ever pay attention to Halo 3? When you destroy the shield protecting the core, you can clearly see the Lekgolo worms controlling the Scarab. It was confirmed by Bungie and is common knowledge.

Halo Wars screwed up quite a bit of canon.

How on earth is that a spoiler?

Actually, I'm probably one of the most sarcastic people you'll meet. It's just harder to detect in writing.

So Kiss My Bow Chicka Bow Wow!

If they try and keep some of the game play like ODST they'll be on to a winner, like have some missions or achievements that make you need sneak and avoid as many covie hunters as possible to get to objective that wipes out a whole room of hunters of something like that, and as for the D-pad agreed dude they could easily make use of that.

DO NOT mistake me for a CoD fan, but maybe you should have a Kill Cam, and "Press X to respawn" durring the kill cam so we don't wait hours upon hours to respawn.

Just saying....

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.

The Respawn timer is SUPPOSED to be there, it is a penalty for dying. A damn good penalty too. If you teamkill, Die with the flag, or die defending the flag, the penalty is LONGER because you messed up MORE.

i think it would be cool if the d-pad could be used as a squad command kinda thing (for campaign only), to control your AI.

like hold position, cover me (follow me), move out, and at ease.

"This is Sierra-315, sir. We're pinned down by enemy snipers. Do you have a visual?"
"Roger that."
"Fire when ready."
-POW! POW!-
"Targets down."
"Roger."

As much as I agree with you, I'd have to say that in games that are most likely gonna be on the MLG Pro Circuit, I'd say that it isn't a good idea. The ONLY thing I like about CoD is that kill cam and press x feature.

Actually, alot of MLG Pro players learn to take advantage of the amount of time they have while the enemy is in the respawn timer. It is a very commonly used tactic to wipe out the whole enemy team at once before going for the flag.

MLG players LOVE the respawn timer.

Having the Kill Cam to watch until you respawn is a good idea, the timer should stay though (Maybe make it so the timer and the kill cam start and end at the same time.)

personally a flashlight would be far more original than night vision, far more scary, and far more fun

Flashlights are Halo Canon too. The only time there was ever night vision, was built into Halo CE's sniper scope.
