PM me any Coup questions you have.

Aside from all the great graphics and multiplayer options there will be in Reach, I think Bungie should also raise the bar on the little details.

My current example of what I had in mind was with the equipment (assuming equipment will be in Reach). It just seems a bit weird that any equipment that you throw, the Spartan does the same gesture. Just tossing it. In Reach I think they could make the throw for each equipment more unique.

The only real idea I have is for the Bubble Shield. When I saw this trailer, man was I excited!!! A bubble thing!! (that's what I first called it, lol) Although I could care less about how the bubble shield was thrown at the time, I think that since Bungie is moving on to try to make a better game, I think they should do this.

Basically, make the Spartan thrust the Bubble Shield into the ground, thus activating it. Although most of you would think one little detail could do absolutely nothing, what about tons of little details adding up, making for an even greater game? It's something new that we've never seen. That's my idea.

If you have any other little details, regardless if it's with equipment or not, please share.

Good point, but pointless thread. Trip mine you shood crouch down and flip a switch to set it, flares shood be smaller so you can use an overhand throw, but i cant think of anything else for the other equitment.

Well it doesn't necessarily have to be for equipment, just any detail in general.

Maybe like the crouching in Halo Reach should be exactly like in ODST. If you noticed you're kinda bouncing when crouch-walking whereas in Halo 3 you didn't.

A proper climbing animation. Truly, Bungie's tech can now handle that :D

Hey, and what about grabbing? Why can't we grab other Spartans, maybe use bodies as shields like in this Halo Wars Cutscene at 2:47.
