That sounds cool a kind of multiplayer survival ladder match. Although I think it would be laggy with all that AI info wizzing between all those xboxes....perhaps a system link would handle it but what do i know? Sounds cool anyway. I hear the reason there wont be an on-line co-operative (or MIGHT not be) is because of all the craziness, AI, explosions, vehicles, information that the two xboxes must transfer between could be too much. But that really doesnt belong on this thread im just trying to share some info with people who might not know. I'll shut up now.

The best thing would be something like the dropships in planetside or Breed, one guy drives, 4 guys sit in the back of the pelican or whatever the ship, and one guy mans a HUGE like 60 cal. machine gun turret to just rip up the landscape as they fly overhead, that would be awsome.

When you r in a flaming banshee going towards the ground u could aim it at the person who set the banshee on fire. At the last second y could jump out of it and the flaming banshee could fall on and kill the person who set it on fire and there wouldn't be any damage done to you.

This isn't an earth-shattering idea just a little opinion I BEG BUNGIE TO CONSIDER. They should make it so that you press "A" to bail a vehicle. Think about it, if your in a side seat and you want to reload, you simply CANNOT. "A" would suit because you are literally jumping out of the vehicle right? PLUS the "A" button is never used in the side seat. Before people start yelling at me about the wheelie in the ghost I just want to point out that you should probably use the "Y" button to solve that little problem. (Or press B to bail because thats never used in vehicles either [although it would be cool to bash people who are trying to board you])

Some sort of aerial attack with the A button would be cool too. Like you leap up to a grunts platform and give him a painful kick to the face. This would be funny but a little out of place in the halo universe...

Oh and on the jumping issue. Traingle Jumping would be cool, you could jump into a wall and when you're sliding down it, tap A to use the wall and leap in the opposite direction, You could use this move to climb between narrow buildings to get to certain objects. Oh and if the walls are electrified you have to neutralise them and then climb up to gain a special weapon. Again, this would be a little out of place and probably belongs with sonic or mario.

on multiplayer, instead of spawning at the beginning of the game.make it more like a dramatic scene when u start. make it like the beginning of the silent cartographer. on xbox live u fly in the level on a dropship and the ship drops u off. if u are an elite, u get dropped off in a covenant dropship. if spartan, u get dropped off in a pelican. an idea i have been waiting to showoff.

I've always wanted to be able to set a plasma weapon on overload and hurl it like a makeshift grenade, resulting in an explosion that makes a plasma grenade feel like a warm tropical breeze. ^_^

Ok dual grenades so you throw two in very rapid succession, dual plasma swords, also be able to use the plasma sword as a weapon when in the passenger seat of the warthog to like clothes-line people, possibly throw the plasma sword like a javelin to try and spear someone running towards you. hmmm automated defense turrets that you activate by hitting a button in a base and pop up and start shooting everywhere for like 20 seconds and can only be activated like every 5 minutes or something. Oh and be able to call in air strikes in multi-player. ;)

I think that the master chief should duel Ash Ketchum. It would be sweet, because when Ash would turn his cap, then the Chief would have a heck of a fight. What a beastmatch!

My thumbsticks will be your Doom.... sorry 'bout that.
My Stats

Any of the "in game" additions to Halo, in Halo 2, such as new weps, armor, multi-player stuff, vehicle stuff, level layout and little-detail stuff... will totally rock.

But what would really makes us pooh our pants would be a mini-game that is unlocked at the end of Legendary.

This mini-game would be a space batlle game between UNSC ships and Covenant ships. The game would be simple but fun and encorporate some celestial mechanics (asteroid belts, planets, etc.). But it would be totally addictive cause it would be multi-player! All it has to be is a little shooter-strategy game, something in between Asteroid and Star-Craft!!!

Target Painting. Basically one guy has a special laser pointer if you will. Another player will either have a special weapon that goes to the painted target or be in a flying vehicle and can fire that weapon which will seek the painted target. The person with the weapon fires it and it goes to where ever the other player is pointing.

In a similar vein there could be camera placements. When I play 4 vs. 4 CTF online with my friends and my friends and I are all on the same box it is very useful to have 1 person hide somewhere and just watch the enemy base. It would be cool if a player could either set up cameras or operate a camera that other plays could watch by watching a set in their base or by taking up a weapon spot as a small tv. If cameras could be set they could obvisouly be destroyed by enemies.

More mission based game types. Single flag CTF is great but more can be done. Assualt like games from UT would be cool where one team has to destroy specific parts of a base to win and the other defends. Actually come to think of it, this could be evolved further. Make it so each team has a base which they have to defend and they have to try and destroy the other teams base. Now make it work for 4 teams with 4 bases :) Assination would be cool too where each team has 1 player as a mark and if he dies that team loses. Would also work well with 4 teams. Game types like these would be great.

Okay thats all I got for now.

This isn't the most amazing idea anybody's ever heard, but i'd like to be able to toggle being crouched. It was too hard to move while crouched in the original. I would try to sneak up on an elite behind something low and would accidentally stand up and get a plasma rifle in the face.

P.S. Sombreros would be great spartanking...

I don't know if anyone said this but...

I think there sould be a mission in Halo2 where the chief has to use a computer to operate a Super MAC Orbital Gun to shoot covenant battle cruisers before they reach earth.

I also think that in Halo multiplayer you should be able to use SPARTANs, Marines, ODSTs, Grunts, Jakals, Elites, Brutes, and Hunters (mmmmmmmmmm.............hunters)
The reason is because you could use a grunt to show off your mad skill or use a brute or hunter because you have no skill. Also, you could have grunt skrimishes or wage war with brutes.

P.S. Sombreros would be AWESOME!!!

I think a cool idea would be the ability to peak corner (if you can) and then crouch while peaking and then hit the "L" trigger and role a grenade. I think that would be a great add on to the single player game.

Coastal swamp hemmed in by cliff drop-offs on 2 sides&ocean drop-offs on 2 sides w/ island
Starts at pre-dawn&time passes
Snow on mountains raining in swamp dry on island
All vehicles
4 bases:
1.cliff top(north) *size* concrete 4 stories(3 above ground 1 below)+ roof *build* mostly rectangular w/ great sniping ledges *entrances* 2 trails up cliff face that converge into one 1/2 way up, doors on east&west, 2 tunnels through cliffs(w/ destructible supports to collapse tunnels) *defenses* 1chain gun on roof 1frg overlooking trails *destructibles* tunnels, all balconies, ledges and overhangs *vehicle location* warthog, north garage bay ground floor
2.caves(west) *size* earthwork 2 stories(both 1/2 in cliff) *build* inside:sidewinder
base-ish with 4 tunnels leading back to a two story cave, outside:perimeter fence made from swamp trees w/ walkways almost at top *entrances* sidewinder front doors&hole in top of cave has rock spiral stairs *defenses* 1chain gun on top of front door 1frg on roof 2shades in cave *destructibles* fence, cave ledges *vehicle location* banshee cave
3.island(south) *size* *build* robin hood prince of theives/ ewok tree fort using palms&bolders (and inside some larger bolders)on the U-shaped island(lagoon facing shore)& 1 tall snipers tree *entrances* only water to reach island, ladders on both ends of U, jump up boulders on south end *defenses* 2frg on boulders next to ladders,2 shades on roof of largest treehouse&boulderhouse *destructibles* every bridge, part of stairs to sniper tree(makes it difficult to reach, not imposible) *vehicle location* other type of flier, or if not one an ATV southside near jump up boulder
4.submerged military compound(east) *size* concrete 3 stories+ roof at water level *build* diamond, bridge from west corner, small 1story tower on east corner *entrances* door in tower, air lock on east corner ocean floor *defences* 1frg on tower 2 chain guns on bridge *destructibles* bridge, air vents on north&south corners(alt entrances) air lock doors(floods base!! anybody else ever try to take out your co-op buddy unerwater at silent cartographer?) *vehicle location* scorpion, on roof

The swamp dominates the majority of this level. Lots of ground cover to hide behind, swampy holes to hide in, and tree canopy cover to hide from cliff snipers& that also hide tree snipers. Small roads w/ destructible wooden bridges lead to the cave base, the submerged military base, a large collapsed tunnel in the east end of the north cliff, and to a large underground bay full of other vehicles. The "beach" is more like the croc hunter show where he's huntin for "salties" in a coastal mangrove swamp. In the northwest corner, there is a small river that goes over the cliff as a waterfall w/ nice little sniper ledges where you can step back into the waterfall and be almost invisible.

There are difficult(but not defended)paths up to the top of the cliffs at the southwest & northeast ends that require some crouching&jumping. these also give the avid sniper some nice looks.

well that's my idea
hope you like it

Lord Hunter
Thats a BONZA idea. Reckon BUNGIE NEEDS TO TAKE NOTE!!

I was about to write something similar. When a vechile is blasted and toasted a dropship should pick the old one up and put a new 1 at the respawn point.

At the bases there should be those automated guns and marines that can be ordered around or simiply used as connon fodder and grunts at elite bases.

Parry attacks with a plas sword if u have 1.

Boats for sure.

need to use gorila tactics. land mines prox mines det mines etc. bases that burn and cause damage. Rain puts it out slowly.
kamakazi banchees.

block entrance with rubble thats hard to pass... clear rubble with grenade etc.

Any who wick idea

Allow Master Chief to emit a powerful Electro-Magnetic Pulse(EMP) charge from a device situated on his armor that drops all shields within a certain radius and then sends out another charge to knock out nearby enemies for those sticky situations where death for you seems almost inevitable. Of course your shield would drop too(only drawback),but it would give you time to regroup instead of starting back at your last checkpoint. We all know how much that sucks!
