  2. The flood tearing down repairable doors and making their crazy noises. Use your points to buy a shotgun off the wall because you ran out of ammo in your magnum and melee wont cut it. Lol it'd be sick.

  4. Give this game a BR mode, there isn't a game in existence that is more perfect for BR than Halo, it just makes sense especially when we consider it's free to play. Even as a hardcore halo fan who has been playing since Halo 1, going for level 50 in H3 ranked etc etc, I can imagine myself loving Halo BR. I've put in many days worth of gameplay in my first BR in Cod Warzone and that's after not playing Cod since BLOPs1, BR is here to stay and I have to admit it is really fun when playing with a group of mates.

    We know that Halo needs to bring in new players to get it back towards the top of the genre in terms of concurrent online players for years to come and having an unbelievable competitive MP as well as best in class BR will do this. Halo 5 warzone and Reach Invasion modes were fun but nowhere near the games potential and that large PvP mode will imo only come from BR.

  5. A good invasion Idea: the gamenode from Star Wars Battlefield (Walker assault) would be dope af. Except imagine if it was 50v50. And everyone was forced to stay in medium sized map for the moment until the map expanded. The objective for the elites would be defending a Scarab while the Spartans try to destroy it before it blows down a whole city. There would be spawnable vehicles and all other sorts which could even be taken from the idea of Halo 5 war zone. So it would basically be a mashup of Invasion, Walker assualy from SW, and War zone. Opinions?

  8. Boiled down, have 4 defined play modes (Forge & Theater making 6 total)

    Competitive
    Purely player vs player. Has always existed, will always exist.

    War
    Both Big Team Battle & Invasion, but bigger teams. Personally, I feel keeping the H5 Warzone aspect of enemy npcs would be a good idea, but spin it more like it was done in Titanfall where each team has actual ally npcs that move and fight rather than the nuisance Marines and neutral score blocks of H5 Warzone.

    Extraction
    Halo's Battle Royale. The unspoken but implied precedent for Halo here wasn't just how Halo naturally plays but also the worldbuilding. Reach's final mission saw the covenant army closing in with glassing beams raining down, CE's mission Keyes had covenant and flood fighting over the Truth & Reconciliation and 3 had the Flood spreading through New Mombasa while also having organic maps with non-timed kill zones in Sandtrap, Sandbox and the like, while finally Halo 5 established the Forerunner artifices as a force overrunning and wrecking worlds, all on top of various factions from innies to ONI, old Covenant, the Banished, Sangheilos and more. Halo wouldn't even need a closing kill zone for a Battle Royale because we have other in narrative tools available. Flood forms preceding a cloud of infection spores, the Banished vanguard ahead of glassing beams, sentinal swarms zeroing in and vaporizing everything organic in their wake, all that not only will definitely kill you if you don't keep moving but will also tax ammo if you don't stay ahead of it through fighting for survival.

    Firefight
    Go one step further and emulate the gradually increasing difficulty of HW2 Firefight as an option with perhaps influences from Cold War Zombies for an extraction round of extreme difficulty, on top of classic Firefight. Add the Flood, obviously.

    So in the end, it boils down to PvP, PvPe, PvEp, and PvE. Forge for all would be nice, but balancing and maintaining divisions between modes would be dicey so not something to be demanded.

  12. I do agree that Halo is well suited for a Battle Royale mode,hell even go as far to say that it’s inevitable 😅. I’m with you that Halo should do it’s own zombies mode like COD and have crazy Easter eggs that tie to the lore 🔥🔥🔥 the potential is infinite

  14. Bruh, Warzone was a lot more accepted than Invasion, successful and fun. Additionally Warzone will always he a "Halo" term C.O.D. is only going to amplify the love of it. Please for the love of God don't constantly talk crap out stuff that hasn't come out yet, just because we have a dry spell.

  15. 6 days late to the party, but what about this?
    Say we have a conquest game mode in halo infinite. I'm pretty sure its not going to be there at launch, so let's say we get it later on and it launches with 4 different maps- why not theme our Spartans and the surroundings based off of lore friendly factions?
    So we play on the map on the ark, and you're playing against the shipmaster's banished. But you're playing as the spirit of fire's UNSC instead.
    Or you have rebel factions on a reach map, and you're playing against the main faction featured in the banished chapters of shadows of reach?
    Part of a human rebellion on earth would be fantastic too, especially if we could revisit new Mombasa.
    And obviously a map on zeta halo.
    Just a couple thoughts. It would be cool to have an almost battlefront 2 style game when it comes to heroes as well too, come to think of it. Play as Jerome or one of blue team maybe. Cheers 🍻

  18. I think they should add a kind of TACSIM mode, similar to Firefight, with the UNSC, Banished, Created, and Flood all fighting at once, possibly with an AI voiceover, like that guy nobody wants to listen to after Osiris in the pre-Blue Team cutscene.

  19. Am I the only one who would LOVE a campaign addon for Infinite at some point that adds more Sabre gameplay? I'd love another Sabre Team battle over Zeta Halo, fighting whatever savage spacecraft the Banished would build to counter the agility and firepower of the Sabre.

  23. Battle Royale is the overwhelmingly dominant game mode right now, don’t y’all think? is it too obvious that they might make a Halo BR? if they pull it off right it would be insane

    but invasion is the way to go

  24. A Flood mode similar to COD: Zombies called “Infestation.” Survive each round like firefight and play similar to survival from MW where you can buy marines and weapons.

    Conquest: Invasion and Warzone mixed together. Elites vs Spartans with AI. Forunner/Banished bosses to fight, large scale battles with progression of base captures and objectives to complete.

    Firefight: ODST style with customisation like Reach.

    Battle Royale: ODST’s drop into the halo ring, grab different levels of overshield to add “armor” and find weapons and other items to be the last squad standing. Stay inside the circle, the covenant ships are glass anything outside of it(also New Mombasa for a smaller map).

  26. Battle Royale would be perfect, both UNSC, Brutes, and Elites have their own drop pods. That alone is different, once you pick your location your set. They could make it different by having the map be "infected" with the Flood. And at set and random moments in time, random Flood can come out from their spawn locs and just terrorize the map. You're in the middle of a firefight and Flood spores and other Pure Flood creatures come out and start attacking you, dead bodies of players become infected and also join in the attack. Or someone is camping/sniping and they get overrun with Flood.
    My idea anyway

  30. Invasion 100%! That’s all I used to play.
    Love the idea of playable brutes (with elites).
    WZ can go the way of the dodo. That got old quick and now it’s just clans that farm the opposing team using nothing but norfangs and prophet’s bane.

  31. Spawn by drop pod, start with knife and no armor/shields (undersuit to mjolnir) can find marine/odst armor upgrades on map and spi/mjolnir upgrades in ordnance (mjolnir could have shields and spi could mimic the colour of your immediate surroundings when not moving but only the colour, not the texture, so a mottled brownish rock would make your armor a flat brown) The weapon sand box is big enough with base guns and minor upgrades to have on map weapons (for example a br could spawn with any reflex/scope optics or a Barrel attachment like kinetic rounds) and top tier weapon variants like nornfang could be supply drop weapons. Armor abilities and pick ups like bubble shields or camouflage can also be map finds (one use only). You could also have hud upgrades as finds so you could find motion sensor models/ visr variants/ or a tactical map toggle (like the map in odst) but only one sensor upgrade allowed so no motion sensor+visr shenanigans. But dont limit the weapons/vehicles to human. Keep seat jumping so solo players can get in a warthog and not have to get out to swap to a gun. Make vehicles resistant to small arms but dont put big guns on flying vehicles unless you also have tanks. As for why the map shrinks… flood contamination.

  39. Expanded Invasion, definitely. Maybe even combine that ground war thing to it. You don't even need to go too big with Expanded Invasion – Just go 25v25.
    As for Firefight, it's not as popular as it used to be. I can honestly just see it being REPLACED by an Infection Horde thing.

    As long as Infinite has;
    Campaign, Multiplayer, Forge, Theatre – Then it's a Halo game to me.

  40. If playable Elites are not in Infinite, I'm straight up not buying the game. I'm a Sangheili whore and not afraid to say it. And they better have as much customization as the Spartans for once!
