An Idea...

[b]So.[/b] This is something that's been on my mind for a while, an idea I had that could wind up creating an amazing game for the Xbox Arcade. Obviously, I would have to go to Microsoft to get this released legally. First, though, I'd like to request the blessing of Bungie, Halo's creators, for my endeavors. Now, what is my idea? Well, it's an idea I had. What if we could get a team of people together who could build the ultimate Firefight experience? That's right, a Firefight 3.0. Theoretically, this would include a few maps the size of Forge World, the ability to Forge Firefight maps(something I always wanted), and some character customization, though not nearly as in-depth as Reach or Halo 4. Also, and I may be getting ahead of myself, but permanent Squads of players and maybe an annual Bungie vs. 343 Firefight competition during Bungie Week/343 Week? Now, #Gaming, I'm asking your help with this endeavor. I need this to somehow reach the ears of Bungie themselves. So, I beg of you, [b][i]help a brother out.[/i][/b] So what do you think? Hopeless? Possible? Good idea? Terrible idea? Let me know! I need some feedback!

  • Would be fun, but seems unlikely for an arcade title: too much work for that little payoff, but not enough content for a full game. Also, that last bit about the competitions, at this point, is like saying "and then 2K and EPIC Games could have competitions on the game." Also, having AI move around maps that can be forged on is unimaginably hard to make.

      Not a bad idea, but dealing with AI would most likely be too complicated to be done on a console.

      • Rh I'll give you the bump but Im not much of a firefight fan. If I want to go shoot an AI I'll Play Campaign for the off chance I might find something I didnt see before hand.

      • Good idea but ultimately hopeless. For one, Bungie doesn't even own any rights to Halo any more and good luck getting 343i to listen to anyone. Not to mention you would need the code from 343i to make halo and to get that you'd have to WORK for 343i and if you worked for 343i anyways you would be focused on maintaining the multiplayer or creating Halo 5. Great idea. But hopeless.
