New Custom Game options Ideas

Games Other Halo

I’ve been playing a lot of custom games lately, and I’ve been thinking of a few things I would like to add to the custom experience whilst doing so.

So, I’ve made this topic to share my ideas, and read other people’s ideas.

Ok, so here’s my wish list:

-No scope option. Basically, in the Weapons and Damage section, there will be an option called ‘Scope’. If you want the scope ability to be on, then select “Enable”; if you don’t, simply change it to “Disable”. What’s the point of this? Say you want to play a match of no scopes, with the sniper, in one of the current Halo games. You have to send a message to everyone, and hope no one cheats. Of course, this rarely ever happens. Someone will scope at some point. With the ability to disable the scope, this would no longer be an issue!

-The ability to make the party leader choose the teams. Currently, if you want to play a custom game that makes use of teams, there will always be a conflict. People changing to every colour, getting annoyed and moaning about some “noob” being on their team. To control this, the party leader should be given the option to manually select the teams for themselves if they wish to do so. The outcome: fair and equal teams, without idiots displaying every colour of the rainbow.

-The ability to stop people from shooting their weapons. Although you could simply give people no ammo, how do we stop people from shooting a vehicle’s turret? I’m sure you’ve all played the Bull Arena in Halo 3. There was always that one guy that wouldn’t listen to the rules, and simply blast everyone to oblivion. Similarly to the idea above, in the Weapons and Damage section, you could disable/enable the ability to shoot weapons and turrets in the game.

Share your ideas and opinions below!

number 1 and 2 looks like things that could actually happen but number 3 looks a little difficult

This^.

Red Vs. Blue, without red and blue!

What if you could play team games, but keep your preferred color? Maybe just have a band around your arm that is your team color, but for the most part you are the color you want to be. This would of course be optional, and for custom games only, obviously. That would be cool.

Coms for custom games that require proximity voice for communication!

Have you ever played a custom game where the only way to talk to people on the other team is to either send them a voice/text message, or go find them and risk getting killed by there ignorant team mates? What if we could just press the “back” button to bring up the score bored, scroll down or up and select the player (with the Y button) you want to talk too. It would work the same way you mute someone, only it temporarily opens a private com between you and that person. Custom game feature only. That would be very helpful, and cool.

Game-chat in FFA needs some TLC!

Have you ever played a custom FFA match with more than ten people? Chances are, you will want to team up with someone. So you say, “Hey dude! Want to team up?” and guess what happens, everyone else heard what you just said, and guess who they are all going try to kill first? that’s right, you! So, what if you could talk to people using proximity so you don’t alert the whole world of your intentions? but still be able to talk to everyone? They did it that way in Halo 2, if you talked to someone in FFA, proximity voice was the standard chat setting, but if you want to talk to someone across the map, you would simply press the little white button to talk to them… and everyone else in the game. Why not have this in future games? Or updates? (hint) That would be helpful and cool.

I would also like to add some opinions on Forge features.

Forge for part leader only!

I think the ability to choose who can forge in your game is important. I like for people to play on my maps while I forge, so they can tell me if something works or not, but there is always someone that goes into forge mode and deletes something. Not cool.

Grab multiple objects at one time!

Have you ever built something in forge, some elaborate structure, and you realize you built it in the wrong place? Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just pick up the whole thing and move it? That would be very cool.

Will add more, give my feeble mind some time to come up with more stuff to complain about. :slight_smile:
