My Idea:

[Tezcatlipopca]

A good idea would be a survival mode, 1P, MP, XBL whatever.

But what you do (i think a few games have done similar things) is you have a small base with unlimited ammo and maybe 1 medpack and you hold out for as long as you can from an unlimited number of covenant that just getting dropped off outside your base.

Anyway it probably wont happen but it thought i would just give share my idea.

[The Executioner]

How about this, (changing it a little.) 16 people on lve in the middle of nowhere and the winner is whoever can survive the longest *no team damage.* That would be cool, anyway that is a good idea but not something that is true to the style of Halo. I think it would be much better in a game like Half Life 2 or Doom 3.

[Hard Boiled Cop]

That sounds kinda interesting. I like how lots of covenants come rushin in and you have to keep on firing at them. Just like Ghost Recon in Defend mode.

[MikeMan91389]

i always like defend mode in GR...


-this isnt halo tho, and i hope its not in it :D

[themoosearmy]

Its not a bad idea, but with unlimited ammo I don't see how some of the better players out there could be killed at all unless the level of covenent increased dramatically and/or they are more powerful than I think.

If Bungie could work this out tho, I really don't see too much of a problem here...and just because it wasn't in Halo 1, doesn't mean its "not Halo." Lets get some new stuff in there already.

i think that'd be sweet! unlimited covenant, but maybe not unlimited ammo... but you gotta reach a checkpoint and u can stock up on ammo and the next battle is like a higher and more advanced skill play than the last one.

[blonks]

how'd you come up with that name :eek:

[SoundX]

Survival would be awsome. Could have records posted on Xbox Live too.

:hail: I think that its a great idea. There are so many different possibilities. Good thinking. Your trying to hold down a base and covie drop in from all angles and you and your team have to hold them off until u die or support arrives or something.

I had an idea, but I dont know if it would work, or how practical it would be.
Its for MP and uses a flag. Can be CTF (for a score) but it uses a flag flying high over your base/ or on a hill near your base. While its up, your team is better. You do more damage, you are more damage resistant, etc. (Both teams have a flag BTW) But if someone captures your flag or shoots it or blows it up with a RL then you lose the benefits. Until you can get another flag from your base and string it up.

What do you think? :confused: This is the condensed version.

Good thinkin Donnie_B. :cheers:

One change tho, how about just have it on a pole in your base rather than far away, that will keep camping down a bit. Also, you're lookin at this like CTF or slayer?

[mordecai]

I like the survival mode idea, especially if it was with a team on a fairly large base (quite a bit larger then BG). Sounds pretty sweet to me. One thing though, you wouldn't need unlimited ammo. If there was a large stock pile of ammo in the base, you need to conserve it, but in the end you could always just take the covenant weapons.

[Cryogenic Pyro]

I love this idea. I think it would be awesome. I think it would be cool if it were kind of like that one Mechassault mode(I think it's siege, can't remember) where the enemies just keep spawning, and you try to hold them off as long as possible. It would have to be modified, obviously, since mechassault is completely different, but it could and would work.

Thanks. I was thinking it could be for Slayer or CTF or whatever. Your team gets beefed up when your flag is flying high. Maybe you even run a bit faster.

Just an idea,

Ah I see, a flag seperate from the CTF flag. Sounds a little like a combo of oddball and CTF, but not having to carry the ball. Perhaps one ball you keep at your base but there is only one per map.
