Welcome to the squad mode.
This would be a cool new gametype where you have to control a squad of 4 marines or 4 elites. your goal is to eliminate the other squad. you play against 1 player with 4 bots in squad. you can order your teammates (sniperguy, heavy weapons guy, 2 assault guys) to set place somewhere or go to a specific location, take cover, covering fire, stick together. all these actions can be done at the D-pad.

so what do you think?

It seems obvious that you play Ghost Recon. Halo and GR are totally different games, why do you feel the need to combine them?

So NOW what?
What would happen if a BR and an SMG had kids? Halo Reach Spawn Weapon of choice, of course!

Marines in Halo are stupid and don't know how to hide behind objects to stay safe. Thats just the way it is. Let them have funny "One Liners" and live for like a 1/2 battle sequence and leave the real duties up to the Chief.

Evil bie why isnt this in HA? and thatw ould rule

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

again, by overcomplicating a great game you'll remove the element of fun. by making a squad based command option you just throw in more things to delay your engagment to the action. and let's face it, one of the strongest things halo has going for it is the hordes of enemies that come at you, and the fast paced in your face action.

What I'd like is competant AI that doesn't really need squad commands, but can do what they need to do without getting killed. Call of Duty 2 is a good example of this. Very rarely did I reach the piont where I wanted to just shoot my squadmates and save them the trouble, where that feeling is literally constant in Halo 2.

Terrible, terrible idea. Halo is a FPS not a TS (tactical shooter) I have GRAW for that.

survival mode yes, but squad mode no, it would involve to much tactics and i think the average halo gamer wouldnt use it
