hi

i was thinking of a idea for halo:reach. well since there warships in obirt fighting above. do you think it would be awesome if we could call in a orbital strike?

i dont want this to seem like call of duty kill system i was think of something differnt. will since how every one is talking about a large scale battle. it probaly mostly be capture the flag and assult. but of cousrse this well requre a entire new gametype i call it uhhh i dont have name let just call it war for now

well in war this mode well be like assult but to call in orbital stike weapon drops and vicheals drops. you would have to capture some sort of building like a fuel depot for vicheals, weapon depot for weapon drops, and some sort of commsat to call in orbital strikes. but of course it would requre cooldown etc


what are orbital strikes?
well in most sci-fi game it is where a space warship fire some sort of weapon to the ground it will destory it

unsc

1st form missle slavo strike

2nd form mac shot

covie

1st plasma barrage

2nd form glass a certian area

balanceing
1st form every 5 mins or more
2nd form every 15 mins
and more than half of the team has to agree for one person to lead
certian areas CANNOT be attack with this

weapon drop

tired of your team running out of ammo ?
well the leader can make a rv point and a pelcain drop a ammo box (aslo reapiear vicheals to a degree) and every up to 6 peopel can take ammo from it then it diss appears

balanceing
only one can be called in every 5 mins

vicheal drop
1 heavy vicheals every 5 mins
3 light vicheals ever 5 mins
4 non-combat vicheals every 5 mins

note** i know my grammar is bad

well aslo to help with this idea i figured to have each team to vote who should become the commander for there team each team will have 1 minutes to come up with it

and the commander has to stay in there base and use somesort of comm center to call in these

now you may debate

Sorry to be negative, but how can u asume ideas if you have no idea of how the game will play or if it even fits into the spectrum of the game?

I don't like the idea too much.

I understand where you're coming from, but I don't like it for regular Halo. There is a pretty big thread on here about a possible 20v20 gametype idea for Bungie which I believe would incorporate your idea well. In fact, they even suggested a vehicle drop. It should pop up here and there, so if you see a large thread about a new gametype, check it out. But like I said, for regular Halo as we know it, I don't like the randomness so much of getting glassed by an unseen ship. With larger numbers of plaers and non-slayer gametypes you can be more free, however. It all depends on what Reach has.

And don't worry about your spelling. Some people don't realize that 1) not all people on this forum are first language learners and 2) not all people have the same opportunities or are the same age as them.

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

Im pretty sure that all the ships in orbit were busy with a huge covenant fleet that was attacking. Dont get me wrong, i loved when Forward Unto Dawn came and dropped the 3 Scorpions in "The Ark" but seems a bit out of place here.

Or instead of a little tiny bomb blowing up a huge base it could be like a beacon that calls a orbital strike for assault games. Only on outdoor maps though.

musicians usually make great spellers, because they listen to how words are said. Vehicle is spelled like that, not viceal or whatever. Simple words that 6th graders spell--If even you are new to english.
On the idea--it would be good for Halo Wars--it's probably in that game. But no i do not want to add any sort of strike or drop in a Halo game--could you imagine that in Halo 3's Tsavo Highway? I would have ordered a scorpion tank and blasted my way through those brutes in no time. I like the spontanity of changing your strategy and using what you have available.

you pretty much described a game called section 8.

Oh no, its the grammar police. Don't be a smartass, you know what he meant and not everyone dominates the english language like maybe you do.

It has been like that for many years. It was necessary for when I made my XBL account.

Edit: Lol at 1337 speak name.

yes we all know when the dawn drops off the tank it awesome. but yes but you would think there would be a support ship in the air or mid-orbit dropping off supplies

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.”

I would like that in the form of an equipment piece, that you plant.

After you plant it, it starts flashing, getting more intense as it gets closer to detonation.

Give it a timer around 30 seconds or so, and a power level like the H3 Beta trip mine.
