Subject: what if reach is a squad based game

i was hopeing that they would brake away from the mostly solo playing as seen in the halo main trilogy i thought if they made a squad based game similer to rainbow six or even if they main charechter was not a spartan but a simple marine and it was just an all out frontline war game.

would you like to see this style or what form of first person shooter would you like to see pleese share your thoughts and opinins and leave my spelling out of this

I feel like I'm gonna break this thing!

There is an idea of a Ygidorp, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping you and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.

that would be pretty sick, controlling a squad of Spartans. Or even controlling a destroyer in the fight for Reach. 314 Covenant ships in space and thousands of troops on the ground? Sign me up.

I would hate that. If i wanted to play a game like rainbow six I would go play rainbow six.

Joe Staten already said that Reach will not have squad-based commands. I'm pretty sure he said it on GTTV during the run-up to ODST.

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.

If it turned out to be a squad game, and I had to give orders to my squad to be able to play it, then I just wouldn't play it. I hate that stuff.

Signatures are for squares.

Joe staten confirmed in an interview, that Reach has squads but without the baggage of squad based combat.

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

for the 1.375.284.378.388.745.117.835 time this is HALO not COD

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.”

Meh. D-Pad isn't used for doing much.
