Game ideas: Halo Universe/Battlefront Series

From GPWiki

I woke up this moring with the idea of a large multiplayer FPS/TPS (undecided) that is based in the halo universe. Possibly with a starwars battlefront style to the game mechanics. such as spawning points in multiple areas of the map, corresponding to bases. These bases could be captured by a team and some could be destroyable and rebuilt. The use of the UNSC and the Covenant large ships could be used as base spawn points or to deploy vehicles. The idea of being flown out of a UNSC Carrier out into the orbit of a large planet e.g Reach, in the back of a pelican with a group of ODST's sounds pretty cool. Some people could be spawned via HEV (drop pod) at certain bases. There could be a variety of vehicles, for the UNSC:Scorpion, Hornet, Warthog, Pelican etc. Covenant: Wraith, Ghost, Spectre, Banshee. I think large scale maps would suit this game. Including wellknown areas from previous halo games. Although the covenat and UNSC are obvious playable teams, the flood could also be an additional team to be played as, maybe only in certain game modes. Different classes could be unlocked such as a Marine in a squad, then making your way up to squad leader, then being able to be an ODST in a squad and possibly a spartan. Their are many possibilties. The covanent could have multiple races to play as. E.g. Drones, brutes, elites, possibly grunts, Hunters. This is just what i thought up this morning and wanted to express my thoughts. It felt like a good idea.
