Something I loved about the Reach beta was that it had green Spartans and purple Elites. When the full game came out, it was just red vs blue, which upset me.
I’d really like the TU or any future update to make it how it was in the beta (MJOLNIR green vs purple) or even keep it red vs blue, but don’t force team colors on your characters (so Spartans and Elites have their own colors, but are still categorized in teams of red and blue.
Another thing I want to see is a Spartans vs Elites Skirmish playlist. A 4v4 playlist with those two species duking it out.
Finally, Firefight Versus coming back would be awesome, especially with the Installation 04 map. Being an Elite and fighting off an opposition of both AI and humans would be awesome.
Even if they cannot change invasion the way we want them to, invasion will still play so much better with the TU settings and gametypes. Such as No Bloom invasion.
I agree:
-Halo Reach beta invasion felt better because of Green vs Purple. It was a change and I loved it and most others did also.
-I like the idea of getting rid of team colours for custom games but in MM it would just look awful.
-The Matchmaking Firefight would definitely be made automatically better if there were 2 Spartans vs 2 Elites as well as the covenant helping the Elites.

First - I hate red and blue.
Second - It’s a nice change and I think those colours suited each race better.
MC is green and in invasion all humans were green.
Covenant are mostly purple so put Elites purple.
It feels better if you have ever played the beta. And the only colours in MM are red and blue (Besides team doubles).

But it’s pointless, personally I love Pink vs Purple but I am not expecting them to change Red vs Blue to that.
I played the beta and I see Invasion no different to what it is now.

I don’t see why this game needs good graphics because it doesn’t help the gameplay. Who needs good graphics?
Not trying to be a jerk or anything, sorry. But you see my point I assume. Custom colors in Invasion would be just one of those extra touchs that would add some depth. I’m sure there’s a way to show red vs blue in scoring but allow custom’s in gameplay. It couldn’t be that hard to change.
