Well a few hours Der Flatulator6 made a topic showing a Bungie.net Image linked to stats that VIP was planned for Reach.
After a bit of URL manipulation, I found out that there were in fact a TON of Gametypes cut from Reach or they were planned and made it into Stats but not used.
I made a quick list in Notepad so here they are.
VIP
Action Sack logo - Not used for ANY Action Sack games.
Soccer Logo - Not used in HaloBall
Crosshairs
Tire with General wings around it - Possible cut Race Gametype
Unknown #1
Plus Sign
Castle - Possible defend the base?
Directional Arrow
3D Shapes - Possible OLD Forge logo or CUT Forge Gamemode?
Loading circle from Halo 3
8-Ball
Noble Logo
In-game Invasion Logo as gametype #1
In-game Invasion Logo as gametype #2
In-game Invasion logo as gametype #3
Ordnance from Firefight and Invasion as a gametype
Unknown #2
Unknown #3
Unknown #4
Firefight Ammo pick-up as gametype?
That is all the one’s I could find from gametype/1.png to gametype/36.png.
As you can see, that is a LOT of Gametypes that were planned for Reach.
Some of these gametypes source could still be in the game, but unfinished, similar to Chess, but was eventually released after work done with Megalo, could ANY of these gametypes be brought to us eventually 343?
