Subject: Halo: Worlds (MMOFPS)

About a year ago, I thought of the idea of somebody making a Halo MMOFPS. My ideas made it seem so cool. Being able to choose Human or Covenant, then choosing a "class" like Marines or Grunts, or even Hunters. Anyway, I told all my friends. They all liked the idea, so I came up with some more stuff to add to it, then posted it on the Bungie.net forums. Half of the people who read it, liked it. A fourth of them hated it, then the last fourth said that it was interesting, but impossible. After I heard that is was impossible, I decided to give up. I mean, there's no point in trying to do something that will never happen. So, it went on and on. I started to forget about it. Then one day, I was thinking about Halo. A new game. A game that nobody has played before. After thinking about it for a while, I thought to myself, Halo MMOFPS. Then I realized that it wasn't impossible. If I was able to actually develop the game, and for the most part, create the gameplay, story, combat, etc., then all I'd have to do is send the data to 343 Industries and try to get it approved. Considering that Ensemble Studios started the production of a Halo MMO, and pretty much gave up after 6 million dollars were spent on it, then started to produce Halo Wars. I'm nearly positive that Ensemble didn't delete all of those valuable files, and there is a possiblity of 343i being able to use, or buy, those from Ensemble. They'd have to fix a lot of stuff, as it wasn't intended to be an FPS, but it would definitely give them a starting point. Now, I decided to start the development of the Halo: Worlds Project. The name will probably be changed by the end of it's development, but we need something to call it for the time being. This game will have lots to do, including the creation of Alliances (huge clans/guilds), the piloting of Starships, Space Combat, as well as the traditional Ground Combat that you're all used to. There will also be tons of classes to choose from, and each class will be customizable, so that you can make your character how YOU want it, and it would be entirely different from anybody else. We would have all of the weapons and vehicles from the Halo Universe, including some new ones. You will be able to more or less own a planet, and work with other players for Galactic Domination.

If you are interested in helping make this a reality, Please register at the newly established forums: www.southofparadise.com.
We are needing people to do all sorts of things. Developing a story, developing classes, ground combat, space combat, skill trees(VERY IMPORTANT), and several other things. At this moment, the forum is brand new, and the person who has created it for me, is still trying to give me all permissions so that I can create new forums. At this moment in time, you can only Register, then Introduce yourself. But in the next few days, I will making many more Forums and Topics. You can ask to help out, or you can just come and give us some input, get to know everyone, or just read more about it. You will NOT be given access to all of the data until we get to know you, and if you are interested in helping, we will ONLY give you access to your Department(Combat, Story, Skill Trees, etc.), until we know we can trust you. This is only to protect our information from other people who might want it for use in their own ideas. If you are interested, you simply need to Register and introduce yourself. In your introduction, please post that you are interested in helping. Make sure that you post exactly what you want to help with. Good luck, and thank you for your time.

Let's be honest, it could be a lot worse.

The Halo MMORPG was canceled. For good reason though Halo just needs to stay a shooter, exept for Halo wars.

What if I told you...

*scoots in closer*

I hate you

Sounds awesome, MMOFPS is possible (Planetside for example).

I will support your campaign brother when i get a chance

It will be a shooter. FPS=First Person SHOOTER. It would just be that you were playing with many more people. And you would actually have clans that would be able to help eachother. Plus many other things.

I could have EASILY made my own forums. I was just not planning on it yet, and she decided to do it for me for whatever reason. I do not want profit. I want a game. And you can't tell me what is and isn't possible. I've been told that too many things are impossible, and I've proved them wrong to many times, so you can shut it. Thank you.

We aren't CREATING The game, OR publshing it, or whatever. We are simply developing the basis to the gameplay. The main ideas. The leveling up. Classes. How it would all work, and how the combat would work. Bonus, and all that stuff. Then we'd send our ideas to 343 and hope that they like them enought to actually turn it into a game.

It won't be just a bunch of teenagers. we are expecting a good 40 people or more to help with it. It will be more like 40-50 pages. Maybe they can work with eachother. I won't even say anything about rights. I will simply send the files to them, with our Forum url. If they like it, they like it. If they don't, they don't. It's just an attempt. I didn't think anything would happen, I'm just trying to have fun. I can do as I please. I don't expect a million dollars out of it. Or even to become famous. I just want a new game, and this is the best way to get one made. Just try my hardest to make the best possible example.

I understand what you're getting at. It's probably not going to happen. I realize this, but I'm going to try my hardest. I am determined. Even if it doesn't work, I can still say that I worked with a bunch of people on a project for a year or so. And even though nothing came of it, I'd still be happy that I tried to do something about it.

We're basing it off the WHOLE Halo Canon from all games and all books. It will take place a hundred or so years in the future.

If you really want to make a difference, take graphics classes in College and start your own gaming company. Until then don't expect to get far and prepare you and your friends for failure.


You obviously don't understand what he means, hes NOT saying " Hey lets get together and make a Halo Game!" Hes simply stating that he wants people to come up with ideas.

TL;DR.

Try paragraphs, bro.

Thank you. Finally.

:P

I'll start on writing the story and creating a class hierarchy.

  • 01.26.2011 6:42 PM PDT

:P

Hopefully this will turn out just like the game Portal: Prelude (search google if you don't know what it is)! Basically, these guys decided to make a prelude to the video game, Portal, but at the same time, Valve was creating the same thing. Once Valve learned about these guys, they met with them and decided to sponsor this creation. Hopefully, 343 will decide to do the same thing to this if you start to make it.

  • 01.26.2011 6:47 PM PDT

We do have somebody in charge of the story, but we DEFINITELY need people to help him out. Just join the forums, then post in the Introductions that you are Sol the Elite from Bungie.net, so I can get you setup. Okay?

And I have to say that it would be amazing if 343 would do that.

  • 01.26.2011 9:10 PM PDT

I'll join too. Just to post my idea of how a MMO FPS in the Halo universe should be, wether its in line with what you think or not :P

Posting it here is pretty much pointless anywas ;)
