ok so ive been thinking about this idea for ever! i tried to do it in a custom game in halo 2 but it was really unbalenced and really stupid
Main Idea
Ok so one side is human only(play as ODST spartans Marines) the other side is covenant(elite grunt brtue etc.) each side starts out at their own base if ur on the human side all u have in ur base is human weapons and human vehicles vise-versa for the covenant side it could be slayer-CTF-assualt-anything
Unbalencedments in halo 2
ok so i tried doing this in halo 2 and its really unbalenced 1.becuase theirs no human flying vehicle so it wasnt fair for the humans2 for the covenant when i made one side on coagulation have a wraith and the other the scorpian the wraith was WAY to weak to beat the scorpion3u couldnt make one team have certian weapons and u couldnt make a certian side have certian weapons
Weapons
some people complain that the humans have an equivelent for every covenant weapon and their no orignality well heres wat i think the weapon thing should

Classes
K this may sound a lot like battlefield but i think this would be cool so for humans and covenant all have classes in their armies why not in multiplayer heres the class system
Human(this is where starting weapons come in)
Infantry-Assualt Rifle pistol
heavy machine gunner-turret(has to have folded up to move with) SMG
heavy gunner-Rockets&pistol(soilders run slower with rockets)
close combat-shotgun&Knife
Sniper-Sniper Rifle&silenced pistol
Covenant
Elite-Carbine&Plasma Rifle
Grunt-Plasma rifle&plasma pistol(grunts have increased speed to make them better)
Hunter-Fuel Rod Cannon-Hunter should be extremly slow so theyed be more fair they be more for defense then offense
Brute-Brute Plasma Rifle Brute Shot
Jackel(basic)-Needler Energy shield
(HIgh ranked)Elite-Energy sword better shields
(artilary)Grunt-FuelRod
Jackel(sniper)-Beam Rifle (improved)Plasma Pistol)
Drone-Needler PLasma Pistol(can fly for short distances no wall climbing)
Vehicles
This is where things eed to be even
Banshee-?????(some kind of flying human vehicle
Warith(needs to have a better gun,use the front turrets)-Scorpian
Spectre-Warthog(both kinds)
Ghost-????(ATV)
Phantom-Pelican(yea u should be able to drive them)
PLz tell me wat u think i think it would rock and it would be pretty fair i dont think it would be in matchmaking but being able to customize to it would be sweet
EDITOk this isnt supposed to be all of the multiplayer maybe just a new gametype if it was the whole mutplaiyer it would suck i love how halo multiplayer is this would just be a great add on

just so you know Halo is a totally different style of game from battlefield

the classes would ruin the point of halo multiplayer

I like the idea , but remeber there would be two covenant teams (loyalist & sepertist)

Halo's a hell of a drug.

what if they made it so you could play ranked games, where the better you were the better the character you could pick. So everyone starts off as a marine or grunt and works their way to Spartan or Elite.

Totally optional.

I think its good, but to even it ou,t it could be, Brutes, jackels, and drones vs Elites, grunts, and hunters. Just have covenant weapons, and vehicles.

This sounds really awsome but to keep it balenced maybe rockets effect speed and some classes are faster then other
