Subject: Halo Footaball?

Would this be a fun game type: Football? I'm talking about American Football, not European Football (Soccer) just to be clear. It would be similar to Griffball. There would be four to maybe 6 rounds. The kicker has the bomb kicked via Man Cannon. Then luck of the draw determines who catches it first. Then, the bomb carrier would have no shields but would be faster while everyone else has a Gravity Hammer and Sword with shields. Tackles would be kills. Wherever the bomb lands would be where the opposition starts again. If they make it into the end zone, they score a point. Extra point would be another touch down. So, after each round, team with the most points wins.

In terms of Loadouts, 343 would probably have to make some modifications. There would have to be a couple more that actually determine what role you play, and would turn gray if that position is taken.

The reason I think that this would be cool is that Halo offers much variety in gameplay and that Reach should be kept popular by adding new gametypes. Also, Hockey also somewhat suffices for Soccer (European Football), but not for Football.

So, what is your opinion?

Bad insults are bad.

OT: I can't really see how that would all work out. Best just leave in Hockey, and carry on with the gam.e

Not quite sure. I guess 343 could mod grenades so the bomb can be thrown I guess?

Or I could just play Madden.

Actually... you could make a Plasma Grenade the ball and remove the explosion, then when someone gets "tackled" (melee'd... I'd remove weapons) the Plasma Grenade becomes a pickup where the player died.

No point to it, when you think about it.

Football is idiotic enough where it currently stands. Let's not ruin what safe zones there are.
