Ordnance Drop Customization

Do you think the Ordnance system should have been different? Like instead of random ordnance have custom drops so that you don’t always get a SAW, Plasma x2, and Speed boost when you could have gotten something better? Or when you want to support your team with ammo or a speed boost?

Would you like an Ordnance system that isn’t random and supports team play more? If so then perhaps in Halo 5 or a really huge -Yoink- update for Halo 4 this system or something like it could be introduced.

Tier
Support Slot
In the support slot things like team boosts such as a Team Speed Boost that increases your teams sprint by a good amount or Team Ammo where your team gets full ammo.

Power Up Slot
In the Power Up Slot things like Halo 3 style camo, a shielding boost that makes your shields recharge much faster and obviously things like Overshield, Speed, and damage boost would also be there.

Weapons Slot
The weapons slot would include power weapons and also an infinite ammo upgrade that gives you infinite ammo for non power weapons.

There are three tiers with each tier the ordnance drops get better but they also gets harder to obtain and when you die or lose an objective you loose some ordnance points.

EDR is Explosive Damage Resistance it just makes you take a little less explosive damage.
The Athletics Boost is like a speed boost but it boosts jump height also.
Team Stealth removes you and your team from the other teams radar and Promethean vision but only when you’re walking and if you sprint, shoot, or use an AA you can be seen.
The Team Shield Boost boosts your teams shielding speeds like recharge rate and recharge delay by a small amount.

But like I was saying before with the customization I think that you should be able to customize drops so that it’s not just all luck involved and when I say customize drops I mean choose a Support, Power Up, and Weapon drop for each Tier.

You can earn more drops after tier one but it’s just the same tiers over again in the same order or it could be random after the last tier OR it could be the last tier over and over but every time it just gets harder.

I might make a weapon, map, and mission idea thread for Halo 5 but I’m not sure where to put it because the last time I checked there wasn’t any Halo 5 forum.

I just now thought of this so it’s going to have some problems so please tell me what you think.

i like it a lot… changes the game up a bit.

Do you like the customizable Ordnance System that I came up with?

ya bro sounds cool.

I like it, the idea of supporting your team with the ordnance you get makes a lot of sense and it’s good for those players who don’t like being in the middle of all the action. On top of that the entire idea adds a little more zest to ordnance drops anyway it won’t be the same thing over and over you get to shake things up a bit which keeps the game fresh.

Agree whole heatedly. I like how you divided into groups. Like instead of saying to choose a rocket launcher as a drop slot, you’d get a general power weapons slot which could possibly drop the rocket.

YAR!
