Light a log on fire and a man will be warm for the rest of the day. Light a man on fire, and that man will be warm for the rest of his life.

How well do you think 'classes' would work in Reach multiplayer?

For example:

Spartan: Fastest moving, smallest hitbox, 3 shots with br to strip down shields.

Elite: Medium, medium hitbox, 4 shots with br to strip down shields (Exact same is the spartan and Elite in normal Halo 3 multiplayer)

Brute: Slowest, large hitbox, 5 shots with br to strip down shields

^^The above are just a random example. Imagine some sort of variation of the above:

Would it work? Would it be good?

I really don't want classes in multiplayer. That's just my opinion.

Not very well. If Bungie wants to make a class based shooter, it makes a whole lot more sense for them to use a new intellectual property than attempting to slap the Halo logo on it to sell games.

I can go into detail if you wish tomorrow, but it is quite late for me now and I'm certain that since this is the first Class Based thread in a little while that it will instantly become a hot topic thanks in part to flaming from both sides of the issue, so I can take my time and sleep for now.

Try not to get it locked though guys, seriously. "This isn't COD" or "This isn't Battlefield" isn't good enough, go into detail, explain what you mean with reason and logic, the answers are there.

well i would like that if the Majority of matchmaking was with Spartans with some Brute play list, elite play list, and Free style

but i would actually like to see all races playable in custom games without balancing. EX; a grunt should no be balanced with a spartan

Actually this.

Seems like a way better idea, 90% of Halo for me was goofing around, and this is it.

Yeah, because we all know that weird guys on youtube always speak the truth.

Posting on bungie.net should require that the user has had to have read a chapter book all the way through.

No offence but save that for Call of Duty.

There should just be Spartans, all equal.

Halo 1 days.
