A little idea thats been stewing in my head

[Tenshi]

This can be used in multiplayer
Mission:Retreive your 2 lost crewmen
One team is the oppsoing force trying to kill the lost crew
The other is trying to find them
They finding theme are in a foehammer ship(sorry i cant remember the ship class name,but whatever that nice lady's ship was).one guy flies while the other is in the back shooting at enemies.One man/woman can jump into a atv/warthog on the back of the ship and go by land!

You could also arrange it as a single player mission.
I just like the idea because I would LOVE to fly one of them dropship/foehammer ship things.They just look so cool(anyone know if we might get a chance to fly em in halo 2?

Ow and I am new and stuff.

I like the first bit of your idea, reminds me of CounterStrike and the bomb. But I don't like the 'flying' bit.
Foehammer's ship is called Echo 419 I think. I haven't been playing Halo for ages now. Have the covenants searching for the lost crewmen and the humans go and find them. Overall both team have the same goal: search.

Welcome to the Forums!

I thought echo 419 was just its call sign.Like in the miltitary planes have call signs but there pilots also have nicks like jimmy mcgoo and razor

But all i really want to do is fly one of em!
Thanks for the welcome
Ow and while im here,does anyone know why its called halo 2?(dont say cause its a sequal,hehhe)I mean earth doesnt have a halo does it?Or is it more than earth?
I just had a dream about this last night,and the halo was actually INSIDE the moon.So cool!

Man I have been wanting to not fly one but I just want it in multiplayer. Think about the last screen shot. Think of that level with hills and a big area with nothing, basically just think of the level with diffrent sections. A dropship comes to drop enemy troops off. I have a sniper and blow half of them away. Then another dropship comes to pick them up. I (being the badass that I am, let it pick them up) Then once they high in the air I snipe their best man:p . Or of course I could drive or gun the ship down with a warthog. Btw I have been thinking of diffrent game modes. Maybe one will be like rainbow six 3 where you only have 1 life, maybe they will have one that you will have infinite lives but once the game starts, the game is locked. Maybe they wil also have one like RTCW, where you just jopin and kill.

i dont want halo 2 to be anything like CS, or games like thjat

Thats a great idea, but not for a game like Halo, I enjoy just killing each other and CTF seems to present a lot of interesting strategy. Last night on XBC, my 2 friends and I were getting owned at TS against another 3, but every time we played CTF we would win 5-0,3-0, or 15-0 depending on the game, its all about inventing your own strategies and I think outlining objectives in multiplayer takes that away from the game.

wow, u get owned? i thought u were good ;)


i agree with moose, CTF is strategy enough, and TS is fun & strategy too... I dont like ghost recon tactics in my halo games, they mines well change the MC to camoflauge colored pants then.... just my 2 cents

Ow well,i thought it would have made a nice mission.Bungie could have done something really good with a single player mission like that.:(

I like knowing that people are as hyped about halo 2 as me. Sometimes I just call my brother and we talk about it for a while.

I had my own idea a while back and made a thread about it. It was a level idea. It was that level where master chief finds out that that robot thing isn't really on his side and it wants to destroy everything. Well when you start off there is that hologram map of halo and you have to destroy those robots that shoot the lazers at you. If you realy look around at the begging the place is huge and there is a pit in the middle. You go out the door and there is a big hallway, you go out the hallway and out that door and it is snowy. Once you walk out you are on like a temple or shrine. There are slopes for you to walk down or you could just jump down the thing. Once you get all the way down it is a big open area. It would be soo perfect. Everything I just mentioned would be the entire level. You could play a siege type game, ts, or ffa. It would be kinda hard to play ts though but if bungie could come up with a good spawn point for both teams it would be soo perfect. Siege would be where you have to completly capture the other teams base. You could choose to have any amount of lives. But if you choose one then all you basically have to do is just kill everyone on the other team other than capturing their spawn. For siege one team would spawn at the same spawn where you spawn at in single player (where the halo hologram is) and the other team would spawn in that open snowy place. The atacking team would not be able to move for 30 seconds. Siege would work on either spawn meaning either spawn could be the atacker or defender. In order to capture the enemy's base it would be the same as ghost recon. Except you can set the settings for it. If it is a larger number of people you could say that they would have to stay inside the base for at least 30 seconds and at least have 2, 4, 6, 8 people inside the base at a time in order to win. It would be cool because each team could have vehicles. If there are banshees or even dropships you could drop people off. An example of this would be the spawn where the halo hologram is. The vehicles would be in that massive hallway. If you have a flying vehicle you can literally go all the way down into that pit. Or you could drop off snipers and place them around the spawn. The place is huge. You could have banshees hover so when the oppsing team does break in they could launce rockets at them. The oppsing team can break in with banshees too. Sure if your on the attacking team once you open the dor and walk through you could get your head blown off but you could open the door on move out off the way. There could be a sniper waiting for the door to be fully open to snipe the defending teams snipers and vehicles. Once you can clear them out warthogs could move in. If the other spawn is the defender the attackers would have to go really far back in order to capture the spawn. There are soo many sniper spots you could get to with a banshee:D around there. Another gametype would be where it is similar to siege. Everyone has the same spawn and the attacking team would still have to wait 30 seconds to move. The diffrence is that one team and one team only has a flag. They have to defend it. If the other team gets that flag then they have to put it at their base. The way the defending team wins is if there is a life limit and everyone on the other team is dead or if the time runs out for the attacking team to get the flag.

Woulda say?:wink:

Thats all a part of context, hehe. I'm pretty good at Halo but there are still people that are more elite than me, but that will change soon.
