Halo: Star Wars Battlefront Style

[Ammon Johnstun]

Hey what up everyone!? Iv'e had an idea for a long time that there should be a game made in the Halo universe using the same play style as Star Wars Battlefront. You play as either the UNSC or the Covenant from a first person shooter perspective. As humans you would mostly play as marines which would allow for a very realistic rendition of the Halo universe (quicker kills, true effects of plasma, blooming crosshairs, unstable crosshairs, lower jump, slower sprint). Not only is this a perspective I would enjoy playing, but I think it would draw a lot of CoD fans/Battlefield fans to play Halo. Obviously the really dope part would be playing the covenant from a first person perspective... or at all. Anyway, I personally have an idea in my head of how I would make it, but what does everyone else think?

When I'm on my computer, I'll give my essay. I have thought if this for a LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG time...

 

 

Related note, I have been making a SWBF inspired Gt for dominion. Test footage on my fileshare- BaconShelf

Well, SWBF is a great game, just not a great game mode;but what I really want is Star Wars Battlefront III!

Disney has canceled First Assault, 1313 AND SHUTDOWN LUCASARTS!

Lol Lucky for you guys I have had this idea also and I'm actually gonna try to build it using UDK over the summer if any of you are interested.

[Victory Element]

I would actually love to see this. The star wars battlefront games are what I grew up playing on my old ps2. I give that game credit for teaching me how to use two joysticks at the same time.

 

I actually tried making a thread once about a star wars battlefront III. I had so many ideas to modernize that game and create a very successful shooter..... But my internet crashed and I lost everything in the post

[BaconShelf]

TW, I could help with ideas of you like and some concepts? Then scan them for you to use?

 

 

What do people think of my rather large post?

[D-38 Boss]

Well, it's obviously an adaptable concept, look at LOTR: Battle For Middle Earth. It was basically a medieval Battlefront. All it really needs is:

 

Classes

Vehicles

Capture points

Differences between both sides

 

Obviously there are finer details to work out, but the basics would be enough to give it that "Battlefront" feel.

Sure baconshelf you could help with the project. It will take some time to create everything, but it can be managed
