heres was my ORIGnaL IDEA. Their were two modes Marines or ODSTs, (this idea was made for a map like relic but bigger like it would take you 3 minutes to walk across the map).

the Game itself is One Hour it can go up to two if in costom games. this gamtype goes up to 8 guys on human team.

The Marines: They crash landind a Pelican and each players postion gives them a chance to survive the landing. First and for most the piolts alway die so their NPCs.

the guys in the seat next to the piolt have a good chance of dieing, but have a pretty good chance of breaking bones(yes you can crawl and drag yourslef to fight even if you had no legs or one arm, you just cant move fast or fire guns accerlety)(Sp)

everyone else on the pelican has a good chance of living .

The pelican itself is well equipped it has a small armory (5 brs two ARMs)(ARs modified) (and enough ammo to last 30 minutes) . It also has stretchers and some bandages(yes you can blead to death).

Now if your an unlucky one you have an easy job. otherwise your going to have to defend their wounded if they took them to your base(where ever it may be).

heres where the fun is, you kill thousands of those little Covenant bastards. Theirs 60 waves, each wave adds 25 grunts and 10 jackels to it and 5 elites of each knid as it get harder and eventually burtes(so at wave 20 you get more than two kinds of elites, and each wave adds 5 elites to the majors and minors)

now even i am not a mean savage so you get ammo drops at the, 10 minute marker, 40 minute marker and the 59th minute maker.

The ODSTs: Thsi is for advanced players olny(or you will die) the ODSTs all have a little chance of surviving even if you land safely. Alright lets say you land safely, but you land in the coveant controlled base you will hopefully be experined enough to fight your way out(but you wont). best case senerio is when if you were to land in with 3 other guys near a good fortress. Worst case senerio is you land by yourseld in a coveant patrols path you legs are broken your ammo is in jumbles you guns is jammed and you cant reach your pistol.
or
if you survive with 3 other guys and the radio guy is down(yes their is a radio guy ODSTs and marines olny have proxemity talk) the coveys are closing in fast...

and on that note you have to have or find the radio to call for evac then the timer starts, however, the covenant are always clsoing in even if the time hasnt started and you dont get ammo supply inless the times starts.

this was the orignal idea

Interesting enough for me to respond. But in Halo, no. Maybe on the Live arcade or something, as a peripheral download maybe? idk. Just not in the game.

Halo CE......(sigh) the good ol' days......

“Go, stranger, and to Lacedaemon tell that here, obeying her behests, we fell.”

i think it sounds like a good idea, but holy crap does it sound hard, you're gonna add 25 grunts and what was it five elites every round??, my god man.
