Who thinks a Halo themed RTS would be good? I'd like to see it...

I've been saying that for a while, like maybe a fall of reach game. That'd be cool. Lots of spartans at your command.......hehehe.

that was the origional plan dontcha know... but I don't quite see how that would work out in the current universe... the humans are both outmanned and outgunned, and the flood don't have structures. its a good idea, but the halo universe is not one well suited to RTS at this time... now a myth-based RPG would be fantastic!

Buildings are unnecessary in an RTT.

but tactics are required for RTT... and the flood dont really have tactics... and he said RTS anyway... but a RTT halo game would work well methinks. very well. i didnt even think of that.

I think Halo is a good game for an RTS. It was many different elements that can be used. And many things can be added to make it even more fun.

I, personally, would really like a Halo RTS, and I think there could be 2 types. One would be ground based, but you could construct Pelicans and call in ODST drops and such, And another one that takes place in outer space, but at a time when human technology is roughly equivalent to the covenants. It might even work to combine the to. Also, what does RTT stand for? I think I know what it is (limited troop resources, focuses on tactics, right?), but I don't know what it stands for.

Real Time Tactical. It focuses on tactics instead of "I can build 10 farms faster than you."

some RTS isnt like that tho. but in general RTS focuses on base building and large-scale tactics (taking and holding large areas of territory) while RTT focuses more on unit-to-unit warfare and small-scale micromanaged battles. i generally prefer RTS because you can have large-scale stuff.

RTT owns RTS oldschool.

yes, yes it does. I was thinking of starcraft, which is a rare RTS where the focus is actually partially tactical and where base-builting has an element of strategy to it. oh and I had a bad experience with my first RTT. and sometimes a bad game can turn you off a genre for life ya know?

Myth was the first RTT.

I said my first RTT not the first RTT. my first RTT was some low-budget discount game from walmart... absoloute crap... never liked RTT since.

This is why warcraft became annoying when you play online.

I've been playing myth 1 coop for the last few hours - so fun!

It's true real time stategy

You can have it like, you drop in with x number of troops, like 20 spartans, they can make it like, well let's see. Has anyone played starcraft online, the custom game type games where you have heros and a bunch of weak people come after you.. that isnt really a good strategy game, but a nice mod for a halo strategy game. Hmm..
