There have been a million posts and threads about new characters besides Spartans and Elites in multiplayer. I have thought of a way that would make jackals, ODSTs, brutes, etc able to be in the game. The multiplayer would be structured similarly to Team Fortress Classic or B1942, with specialized classes. There could be the Commando class (Spartans/Elites) Heavy Gunners (Brutes/Rocket Launcher ODSTs) Scouts (Marines/Jackals) etc. It wont be in Halo 2, but its an interesting thought nonetheless.

I already posted something like this yesterday. But ya i would like to have more of a variety in MP. My post was about giving certian people advantages and disadvantages. Flood can jump, marines can roll, etc.

Bad idea. It would completely change Halo's multiplayer (in my opinion) for the worse. Bungie doesn't want to change the old formula because it was unique- while the caste system is in about every other FPS. I say keep the teams even, that way they're not overpowered classes and underpowered ones as well.

if team fortres is so much better han halo, then what the hell are you doing here?

and why would you want to play as anything other than a MC or elite...
