I think a Grunt vrs flood objective gametype would be awesome... The grunts would be controlled by players and they would have to defend an area, or attack or something while they had to deal with AI controlled flood (set on heroic or something). It would be even better (assuming that bungie allows more then 16 player games) to see like50 grunts moving to locations to make a desperate attempt to hold off the flood... wouldn't you think it would be cool to watch as a group of 10 allied grunts gets swamped by infection and combat forms, or to see a line of carrier forms wipe out an entire Grunt turret squad? If the juggernaught is in it would be friggn awesome....
The levels of this gametype would usually be dark or dimly lit, but still have some light places. There would also be lit levels also, but confining, like in te hallways of the containment wall ect... On big maps (usually dark with nice ambient noise) like in a small holdout point of the Covenant holy city, there would be vehocles that a grunt could pilot, like 10 ghosts, and some heavy turrets turrets.
The way it would start out is that it would be a random draw on which weapon you would get (plasma rifle, plasma pistol, plasma turret, fuel rod cannon, extra grenades.)
And it would be divided like this: 40% likely to get a plasma pistol, 10% to get a needler, 10% to get a plasma rifle, 30% to get extra grenades(4 instead of 2) and a weaker weapon such as a PP or a needler, 5% to get a fuel rod gun, and 5% to get a portable turret.
I'm not sure if the terms of victory should be a time limit, or if the Grunt team accomplishes all its objectives... The losing terms would be total eradication of the grunt team or the loss of all the objectives (defending variant) I'm stuck on weather or not each player should get lives, because it would be pretty boring having spent all your lives and waiting out the rest of the game.... I think this would be really fun, please pm me if you have any additions or modifications to this gametype..
