Large scale stationary weapons!
I think that Halo could be expanded by adding large scale weapons like artillery, radio tower that broadcasts educational television on all enemy HUDs (obviously an instant kill), missile launchers, and any thing else you can think of (that's bigger than the chain gun turret.) With forge you could customize their placement on your maps, amount of starting ammo, range, and other aspects. Long reload/cool down times and possibly limited ammo could make them balanced. I was thinking along the lines of the halo 3 vehicles but stationary (press rb to get in.)
Also, Bungie has obious incentives to do this because:
1. Reach is a human strong hold rather than some random ring that you crash on. There are probably military bases everywhere, and what do military bases have? Thats right.
Big guns and doughnuts.
2. This would help greatly expand the amount of vehicles that halo has. Why try to make different similarly sized vehicles/weapons when you could build bigger ones?
3. Who doesn't like big guns? It would give more of an incentive to buy the game. Remember the hype (there was some!) about the elephant? There would a lot more hype with this added feature.
4. Maybe mega vehicles/ships could be added as well to counter these new super weapons (pelicans, phantoms, and all those other cool toys.) This would make Halo Reach a MUST BUY (at least for me.) It would make it the most epic multiplay FPS ever.
5. Bungie could finally include their infamous world domination catapult. If an enemy gets in range, you can aim your robot arm, gently grab them by the neck, mount them in the catapult, and promptly launch them into the sun (or what ever star is near planet reach.)
The possibilities are endless, and I want your ideas. Make it cool and balanced.
Don't forget to vote.
