I've seen topics about "Make Halo Class-Based" and "keep halo the way it is" and "Remove the BR!"
Well, i want Halo:Reach to be made for Casual AND competive Players. i personally like the MLG gametypes. i dont want any discussion about "OMG MLG IS 4 Pros" and "MLG suck" in this theard.

ok now lets start talking about my idea:
My idea was removing all equipment because we could use the X button for IN-Game weapon equipment. My idea was being able to unlock equipment for your weapons for example a Scope for the Sniper which can look through walls. So before you start a game you have 4 spots for equipment you start with.
Example:
Slayer on the Pit
My chosen Equipment: Silencer, Night Vision Scope for Snipe, Combat Knife (about that later) and a 2x Scope for Dual Weapons.
Right after the Game starts i go and grab the Sniper Rifle
and press X to remove the current Scope and replace it with my Custom Scope but because my teammate thinks he's better @ Sniping he betrays me and picks up my sniper and see's my nobby scope on The Sniper and press X and puts his super dooper awesome mirrow scope on the Sniper. i respawn pick up a SMG and put my 2x scope for DUal Weapons and the Silencer on it. "ODST style" because of my silencer i dont show up on the Radar and my SMG has a improved range because of the 2x scope.
i go into the Sword room and an enemy atacks me with an AR and Melees me but because i pressed X at the exact right moment my Spartan avoids the melee and kills him with the Combat Knife right after that.

These were just some examples about how this would work. Because of this addon you could be able to change the weapons how you want (like in COD) while keeping the Halo Style.

My Ideas of Equipment:
Mirrow Scope 4 Snipe and BR:
While unscoped you can watch what's happening behind you when you look @ the scope.

Unnamed Scope 4 snipe only:
looks like the scope of the Snipe in Halo 3 but while looking at it you can see people behind walls in green. and when scoped you can press a button to point out people in Green behind walls.

Combat Knife:
Makes you able to Counter Melee atacks when pressing the X button in the right moment.

Silencer 4 full-Auto Weapons:
You dont show up on the Radar unless you're jumping or Throwing nades.

2x Scope 4 Dual weps:
Dual weapons becomes un-dualwieldable and range increases.

any other ideas?



Yea that was my Idea, please excuse my English its not my mother language.

I like the idea but how about you can only have one type of weapon equipment per life.

....

You know what, these Ideas are pretty good they do seem to go the way of CoD a little but I can totally see how a counter melee system would work.

nice piece my friend.

Sounds good, but remove the combat knife, it makes every1 in that case using it at all times making "melee" worthless.

Well, i want Halo:Reach to be made for Casual AND competive Players.

And turning Halo into COD accomplishes this how?

If you want Reach to be made for casual and competitive players, then in other words you want Bungie to do what they have always done. Bungie makes games that they like, and then load in a huge ammount of customization via forge and custom games so that people like MLG can have their own way of playing while someone who wants to race mongooses on a track in the skybox can do that as well.

Its arguably the reason why Halo is still super popular years after it's release.

Signatures are for squares.

Combat knife = OVERUSED/OVERPOWERED.
