Man o man, halo 2 was great for players that love SWAT... but how can halo 3 improve SWAT and TEAM SWAT for us? I've got a few ideas:

1. Halo 3 pistol should have a scope when single-wielding, increased power (in comparison to the halo 2 magnum... yea yea, it was suppose to be more powerful then the M6D... but that didn't work out with the increased shield strength), but decrease the amount of ammo you can carry and decrease the rounds per clip (6-8) thereby increasing the number of reloads. This will help to balance and force players to use a great variety of weapons.

2. Duel-Mode most weapons:

new AR: primary is full auto, secondary is semi-blast... etc.

3. Include a SWAT shield that is indestrucible to gun fire, but not to nades and rockets... aka, you can't shoot through the shield, but you can blast it with a rocket, ythe force of which will kill the person holding the shield.
There could be many other versions of this as well....

4. Grenade Launchers
....as a duel-mode with the SMG perhaps, or maybe even on the assult rifle
It would shoot normal frag nades and have a capacity of 4... also should have a slow load time since it'll increase the velocity of the grenade... t o keep it balanced ofcourse

5. all snipers to lay out as opposed to only crouch. in order to make an advantage like that balanced, it will take a player atleast twice as long to lay out fully and get up...so if you sneak up on a sniped lying down, they're pretty much dead... i also think you should be able to stomp them while they're laying as opposed to hitting them.

6. Commands... should be able to set up check-marks, meeting points, etc.

7. Screw smoke grenades.... we don't need em.

8. Human equivalent to the banshee.... or they should include a helicopter roughly the same size as the warthog that has one driver, one passenger and two turrets. I also think they should include a larger warthog, kind of like a greman Unimog, that has a larger carrying capacity and two turrets.

aite, lets hear some ideas people

How about we just keep SWAT how it is in Halo 2? A slayer gametype. SWAT doesn't need to be it's own thing like CTF or Juggernaut...

Just make a "realistic futuristic" game type...

Look at any realistic game today, and do that in halo :D(only for the one game type...)

guys, im talking more about improvements to Halo 3 that would benefit SWAT players, such as the inclusion of a Shield, crouching, etc. SWAT is the most popular gametype now and it deserves attention from bungie...I'm not saying, hey this defiently has to happen, I'm just asking what you like to see happen.

On a side note, I think removing the vapor trail from the sniper would greatly benefit SWAT.... don't get me wrong, i know what this means... CAMPERS... but it would make the game a hell of a lot more realistic, and force some players to improve their gameplay to keep up....

let me know what you think about that

Can someone explain to me what SWAT is, and what Team SWAT is. I've heard it used a lot, and I don't play Halo 2 multiplayer recently, so yeah, what is it?

So what else does SWAT need? Night vision, tunnel vision, drunk goggles....

I'd really like to see some more tactics put into the game itself.

As for MP, Night-vision and some levels that take place during storms so the only real light you get is from lightning would be sweet.

Another idea is to add a weather option to all outdoor levels.

.thats all i got for now..
