Steven

I havnt read the books but this reminds me of the opening scene in SW: Revenge of the Sith. In anycase, its cool.

If done right that could be very cool.

I play for keeps.

I'd be so overjoyed with something like that. Like just one level where you command a fleet or even a single ship. Something like the Homeworld games.

There was a mod for C&C Generals:Zero Hour that used that engine and made a pretty cool battle. You could command human or covenant ships. That is kinda illegal though, look up Halogen, its kinda like that.

I can almost guarantee there won't be any of these RTS type space battles you guys seemed to be talking about. However, they may, at some point in the game, stick you behind a MAC gun and have you defend Reach from attacking ships. That's definitely more plausible.

Because aliens.

To xXLastHylianXx:

He meant more like the space battles from the Star Wars: Battlefront-series, where you fly around if battle instead fo commanding the fleets.

maybe not in gameplay but i can see them put some awesome cut scenes in it with space battles.

Dont know maybe we can as Spartans invade that ship where sam dies. Because in the article bungie published they talk about lighting in space.

this is a confirmed fps, and i dont think spartans can fly capital ships. gameplay, no. cutscenes, hopefully

you got a link, cos i need that info for cod bashing
:)

(i like cod, but i need to argue with my friends about something)

a little SW: Battlefront 2, but thats OK becaause their space battles were awesome. But this should only be a campaign mission, not a matchmaking multiplayer bonanza thing, but should also be a map (thats not used in match making) so you can forge and custom game it

  • 11.03.2009 12:04 PM PDT

Look out.... -boom- (headshot)
I told you to look out, but know, you got in my way, was going to shoot that splaser....

Oh yes imagine, a level were you are sapose to lose, that would be fun. -rolls eyes-

You say goodbye, and I say good riddance.

What im thinking about is the Halo book series. In Halo Fall of Reach (the first one). They meet the covenant and have spectacular space battles. I think it would be cool if we could have space battles in HReach. It would be like you were captain Keyes commanding a fleet or a singular ship down to thrust port/starboard. Main guns, MAC gun. Main thrusters and so on. I think this would be intense. Share your ideas.

If the ships took dynamic, area specific damage, this idea could be fun for multiplayer.

Imagine fighting through a ship that is litterly being ripped apart by another.

Someone clearly doesn't have an open mind...

Can you believe it?

No, space battles would be boring. It sounds like something they would put in a lame spin-off game.

They can't. Hell, they can't even order Marines around.

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

Instead of flying the giant spaceship, why not instead fly long/shortswords in space (forgot the covenant equivalents).

I know its an FPS but then why when your in any vehicle are you in 3rd person. It would kind of in my idea act like that

I doubt the Navy would trust whoever you play as. Also, if you play as a Spartan, you can't command a ship.

Anyways, it takes a whole crew to drive even a simple frigate.

RAWRRR you dont have to be a -blam- spartan!!!!!!! You could be Capt. Keyes no one knows! (sorry for that rant.)

If that's so, then the game wouldn't be very long. Keyes left Reach during the beginning of the initial assault.
