Do you guys remember when Bungie said New Multiplayer Experiences? Don't think I am jumping to conlcusion this is just a thought. I don't want Halo to be like COD or even GOW... This just would be something awesome to add. Don't say it isn't possible because Halo 3 is already out. Halo:ODST is a completely new disc. It very well could contain a Horde style game mode. Humans would spawn inside a base or even just a normal multiplayer map. And the flood or even maybe the Covenant, would just start appearing and going after people. Maybe even give us a forge option to make our own Horde style map. Thoughts?
New multiplayer experiences can mean anything. For all we know they could add an online game where you need to shoot pinata's. Bungie was being general addressing that. They don't want you to think anything, because most likely far fetched ideas won't be implemented. And this one, in my opinion, would fail beyond belief. Halo is not a rather fast paced FPS. It can be fast, and it can be slow. I don't see my self handling hordes of brutes pounding away at me when there is reload, and different bursts for each gun. To make it fair they would either have to give the 'horde' less shields, or progressing levels like in GoW2. Either way, its not Bungie's critique in the first place. Bungie likes to keep things simple, but creative. And I don't see Bungie being the game developer with that sort of fetish. Oh, and ODST is not a separate CD, its a game extension.
I believe ODST is going to be like (Don't get me wrong I'm assuming ALOT) the game fable...The first game was just called Fable right? but then they made an expansion? Called Fable the lost chapters...it was still all the original game but with the added story line etc. So it is possible that ODST will just be regular Halo 3 disk with added campaign etc features etc...or it just might add a new menu to pick idk who knows or it might be a completely new disk all on its own but then how would you forge with ODST? Anyways thought back on topic i HIGHLY doubt that would ever happen, so don't get your hopes up.
It actually is a good possibility that it will happen. Being that halo has had infection, and GoW and CoD came out with their own forms of 'infection'. Bungie might try to up their infection style to something as of horde.
Maybe they might implement the Flames onto our disks as well for present Recon owners or maybe for the new recognized people. Just throwing an idea out there -- besides, it's a new "disk" right? Or maybe new armor. So many theories as to what will be on it; and we have to wait a whole good 11 months from now too...
Please, link to where Bungie says there will be "new Multiplayer Experiences" because I'm quite sure the Multiplayer is not going to change at all. Also, don't, for any reason, change your text color to white. People on the Old School style can't read it.
This idea was all over Bungie forums last year, infact, i'm compelled to believe that is where Epic Games got their idea from. I'm not saying that it's a definate no, but i doubt it's going to happen.
In my opinoin ODST will have a similar screen layout to halo 3: But minus the radar and little to no shields: Also the jumping would be reduced to a human level. (to comment about the hoard thing...... Bungie shouldstick to infection)
I don't really think this would work. ODST gives you what, no shields? I don't think you could drop to many enraged brutes with no shields and a silenced SMG. Maybe they could work it in with flood if the flood didn't have guns. Maybe.
I'm pretty sure if they had said that, they where probably just referring to the maps that are packed in with ODST. And I don't think Horde would really be a good mode in Halo regardless.
