Subject: A good idea I think for the next halo

To put it simply its Halo + Shadowrun
(this could also just be a new gametype in next game)

I was thinking everybody starts the match with lets say like 200 credits (or new currency if they want to implement it, but personally i've gotten used to credits) credits would of course roll over match from match

Lets say all armor abilities are 50 cR

DMR (or for the love of god im hoping the BR) and Needle rifle (or the much better Carbine) 50 cR or 100 cR (even have the possibility of balancing all 4 somehow)

Then lets say sniper/s (bring back the beam rifle) 200 cR so if someone wants to start off with snipe they can but they get nothing else, cause idk how many times i've gotten beaten to the sniper by less than a foot or gotten killed over the snipe

Rocket Launcher/s 350-400 cR so that it takes awhile for them to earn them and they earn them right before the vehicles

Now vehicles i think every map should start off with at least 3 mongooses, but all other vehicles should be boughten

Ghosts lets say 500 cR, warthogs around 600-700 cR, wraiths/tanks 800-1000 cR, Banshee 800 cR, Falcon 1000 cR

Also this could open up the chance for a Space battle gametype which I think would be awesome and I heard was talked about in Reach

This is a great group to get active in.

it's a good idea its just a little too much like Call of Duty.

Halo is unique in the way that you race for the Sniper Rifle and if everybody has one its not going to be very fun.

see i was thinking of it more like you can't setup classes before matches but you have to buy everything at the start of the match like in Shadowrun or Monday Night Combat (except weapons and armor abilities instead of skills) maybe you could set-up quick purchase options.

Like i said before also this could just be a new (in my opinion very awesome) gametype

Counterstrike used this system before Shadowrun and I loved that game. It's a great game mechanic in my opinion and I think that if it were to be used in Halo it should just be an optional game type rather than the default one. The problem is that Halo is a sandbox game

yeah counter strike was an amazing game and that got up to a having (i think still may have) a Pro circuit. I think that if the 343 team wanted to make a new approach on their first halo game (not counting Halo wars) tho this might be a good way to do it (or at least a good new gametype like i've said)
