take one of the best mp game out there (cod 4).
mix it with the most played game on the xbl (halo).

will the result A) blow or B) rock?

It would really depend on how said "perk" system works. It could just be a campaign only thing. If it was for multiplayer, than Bungie better do a very good job balancing it and all the "perks" better be availible to all players when the game first turns on.

Also, when could said "perks" be switched around? Before the start of the game, condemning you to that perk for the rest of the game? Or can you change in the middle of the game? If so, how?

And we better be able to turn off "perks" for custom games if they are in the main game.

it wont be halo if they add perks.
here is a idea we will add aliens into cod.
besides most noobs would be using the same perks as mlg players then that stuff is getting over used and irritating , so i say stick to halo.

what's halo exactly?
is halo halo because of of MC? no... HW and odst.
is halo halo because of the halo rings? no... H3 and odst and HW.

back in H2's time, if you had said "hey guys, let's add equipments. there would be like, a cover, a regenarator and a shield drainer. wha do you think?" people would have said the same thing. "omg itz not halo!!11!". and today it IS halo.

fresh things = good.
I don't want to play halo 3.5...

first of all h3 did had a halo ring but you probably never madit to the last level.
second equipment was NEW not something that a other game had.
the only thing i would aprove would be race extras.
like spartans can jump higher and elites can go faster or the other way around witch sounds more reasonable when talking about a heavy cyborg jumping in the air

this idea has been brought up before and i agree. if call of duty and halo combine their ideas they can make the greatest game ever(not to mention the MOST MONEY EVER!!)

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

Perk isn't the right word, it attracts CoD anti-fans.

Portable power-ups maybe?

I think it's a great way to expand the equipment system. You can carry around a bubble shield or something that allows you to sprint for instance, but not both.

and not from the start of the game you have to pick it up.
maybe they should make the power ups like equipment.you can carry it and activate it at a chosen time.

I believe that's how they were described by the infamous "You Know What". Something that you could carry around and activate at will, like the Active Camo and Invincibility equipment from Halo 3 campaign. He also said that they recharged.

maturity level = a bit below 0.3/100, captain.
equipment isn't new. guess what other game had something similar to equipment? deux ex. team fortress one. even perfect dark n64 had something similar to equipments, that was 2 generations of console earlier.

recharging equipment?surely after 5 minutes or so

The rechargeable equipment, of some sort. Personally, I think its a good idea. Its like the Arbiter's camo in Halo 2, but expanded.
I wonder how it might carry in to MM? Will there be customizable perks?

i agrre with you and i never played call of duty

I'm waiting for you to actually come with a counter argument, or just admit I AM right and you ARE wrong.

it looks like the later is true.

It's not like that, it's more like the sandvich from Team Fortress 2. Balanced, yet keeps the gameplay interesting.

They're supposed to be some kind of... "usable power ups"? Then it's alright. But about the sprint thing? Unless you can sprint without any "perk" (just enabling you to sprint for a longer time), I wouldn't make it a power up. It would just feel wrong, if there has to be sprinting, well you should be able to sprint, not "learn" how to sprint because you took some power up.

Worst idea ever...http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=8664824

They work great in Call of Duty, but they have no place in Halo.

Bungie and Infinity Wards fusion...forming Bungie Wards...or Binity Wards...or...Infinite Bungie.....I don't know. These two companies are very successful in delivering great games. If they were to merge, the government might step in and consider them a monopoly cause that's how good they'd become.
