Its been rumored that halo reach is going to have classes such as a sniper who's only good with long range weapons or a heavy weapon class who is slow but has a powerfull weapon. Im hoping Bungie will look at this forum to see what the fans really want. what would you prefer?

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

I really hope not. What with games like Modern Warfare and Battlefield, there are plenty of class-based games.

I like Halo's multiplayer because it is the way it is. That may not make much sense, but I have more fun in Halo 3 than in CoD 4 just because Halo is more fun.

Besides, everyone spawning with a rocket launcher or a sniper would get old fast.

All you need is a well placed grenade :)

HALO came out with its unique multiplayer for a reason. There is no other game like it, and it should not become like "another game" with class's. Like the dude above said there is enough class based games, you kids have to stop wishing something so foolish. If its a class based HALO its probably not made by BUNGIE

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 wouldn't mind it in Campaign.

But overall, I trust Bungie. If they go with a class system, I have a feeling it will be fun.

I remember, while waiting for Halo 3, me and my friends went over our ideal class system. It would be interesting, at the least.

I honestly like the traditional halo Gameplay, but if you want a class based Space Marine game.

Try "Section 8" it kicks ass
