Hi

Totally new guy, haven't even lurked much. Anyway...

I saw the article a few weeks back about how Halo evolved from what was originally an RTS game. It looked like a really cool game, but just imagine it now with the current Halo universe! I know, I know, Bungie doesn't accept unsolicited suggestions for games, but this isn't technically a new idea from myself, right?

Show of hands...how many of you would like to see such a game?

Halo for an RTS? Hmmm... It sounds like it would be crap. it's like EA Making an RTS for LOTR. Crap! Crap I tell you! Halo should remain a FPS. if they do make an RTS i'll try it, but I doubt it would be any good

It could be fun, if done right. But, it wouldn't really feel like Halo. I don't really think Halo would make a good Real Time Strategy game. Then again, I'm not a big fan of Real Time Strategy games, the only one I've played and liked is Star Craft.

I think that they should leave Halo as a First Person Shooter. If Bungie wants to make a Halo game thats Real Time Strategy, then thats great. They would be the only ones that could probably do it right. My hat is off...

Heh

I figured it might get this response. I agree that the actual Halo game wouldn't be very good in RTS, but howzabout simply setting it in the Halo universe?

Surprisingly enough, my friends and my brother love the idea because they're big fans of Warcraft as well as Halo. I showed 'em the pics from that story and they were all bummed like, "Why didn't they finish it?" I think that game had serious potential, and now even more so when it's related to two huge-selling games.

The main thing I'd like to see is an RTS where the soldiers don't just stand there while they shoot. It would be basically like zooming out from a Halo mission or something. And having that varied terrain to take cover behind...oooh, the tactical possibilities.
