Spartan ops is really enjoyable but after a while it is so stale they need some fresh ideas to make it better or go back to firefight. Gears of war 3 had horde mode and as everyone knows COD has zombies but i feel halo could make something better zombies and horde mode to compete with them.
Name some of your ideas you would like to see halo do?
I only want Firefight back if they bring back ODST Firefight. Limited lives, really tough maps, and long sessions. I mean… I’m sure the main reason it was changed for Reach was so that more people enjoy it, but the limited lives made it such a thrill! Not to mention the fact that MOST people automatically play smarter and more carefully.
Both?
I like the additional story of Spartan Ops,
but ever since ODST I’ve loved Firefight to death.
I wouldn’t trade one for the other, but would it be that hard to take the maps from Spartan Ops into just regular Firefight?
OMG, SO chokes FF. You have a story where you advance through a mission. AI is way better. New storys weekly or whatever there doing now. I don’t understand how it’s even comparable. If I had to have one complaint, it would be that they should’ve kept the ranks seperate between SO and MM.
I like both to be honest. Spartan Ops is fun in my opinion because of the continuation of the story… it’s like a mini-Campaign which is always good. It makes it more interesting than Firefight… but the replayability gets is questionable so hopefully they keep releasing new episodes, and further seasons, for a long time to come.
GAME MODE: your objective is to stay alive for as long as possible against the raging sword wielding grunts!
PLAYER TRAITS: your running speed is reduced by 25% and you carry a pistol with unlimited ammo, but it’ll take twice as long to reload. you will not be color coded green like in flood mode. your unique colors that you chose for your spartan will remain in-game. your secondary weapon is the gravity hammer; it’s a one time use in the entire game that can take out all enemies within a specific radius.
ENEMY BASICS 101: the enemies will be grunts wielding a sword. if you shoot them in the head, they die instantly. each time you accidentally shoot their body, they move 25% faster towards you; it’ll take 5 body shots to take one down. so this means that grunts are capable of moving up to twice their speed if you shoot their body 4 times, 5th shot kills them. also… there’s no need to hide, they will always know where you are at all times. be careful not to get slash away with the sword.
HOW MANY PLAYERS: you can play up to 10 players.
WHAT DO I DO AFTER I DIE: if you get kill by a grunt, you’ll play as a grunt and your job is to take out the remaining players. (as a grunt)if you die, you transfer to another grunt. targets will be indicated on your screen so you know where every player are. (all grunts are ai’s unless you die as a player and become one of them).
HOW WILL THE GRUNTS SPAWN: grunts will spawn from 4-8 different locations at the same time, not just from one location at a time.
OTHER VERY IMPORTANT NOTES: there will be a total of 5 rounds. before each round, you’re given 1 grenade of your choice. you can either save it and accumulate as you progress, or use it when you really need it. the grenade will be a lot stronger and the kill radius is larger( your grenade will not harm you if you’re in its’ radius). as you progress to the next round, more grunts will show up and their speed is automatically increased by 25% each round. as for the 5th/last round… last round will be unlimited grunts coming at you nonstop! by the fifth round, they will be traveling 125% faster than their original speed. not to mention that those grenades would really come in handy if you managed to save any. also, by the 5th round, you can’t out-run grunts, but you can match their speed.
