Halo MOD?

Halo MOD?

Ok so I am just throwing this idea out there because I am a Halo fanatic and I think that this game could easily incorporate the Halo universe into it. I am not a very good designer but I can provide support and more ideas. There are already two races that could easily be changed into the Humans and the Covenant( TEC and Advent). All we would have to do would be to change ships some and add  gauss guns to most TEC Cap ships. I know this might take a long time but if it means that we will finally have a Halo space combat game then it will be well worth it.

It looks like you'll need to just put it in img tags. So, make a moderately sized screen shot and then just put it in [img][/*img] but without the *.

Please do not get the frigate mixed up with the CCS-battlecruiser. Most people thought that the ship flying over them in the game was a frigate. Its not. That is a CCS-battlecruiser.

My first thought was it is a frigate or destroyer too, but I looked a little closer and . . . ya

Canada man Im very impressed with you and your team. I cant till you release it. I really cant.

this just popped up in my head: why didn't the UNSC ever use biological weapons against the Covenant?
Reply #488 Top
Likely because most of the time the Covenant would just glass the planet, leaving the humans incapable of defense against the aliens themselves.

I have it posted All_Under_Heaven.

I couldnt see the MAC gun cause it was so dark, but i can only imagine. And considering the Frigate wasnt skinned, it still looked awsome. Nice job.  :CONGRAT:

ARGHE!!!! NO EDIT!!!!


Ascendent Justice is a Covanant Assult Carrier and a flag ship, so it will look the same as Shadow of Intent.

Mod looks awesome, like said before. And will play like I said before. Hell, it keeps looking better, and I can't wait till the release.

I found a pic of a SMAC Defence platform.




WWW Link

If you looked at it, you will see it has to be bigger than 3 or 4 frigates combined. Maybe we can have the SMAC platform a repair station AND a defence platform. It also has Hangers, so perhaps the SMAC platform can be like the Novalith cannon or the Deliverence engine. It has 3 things, defence platform, dock, and 3 small hangers. For the lowest def platform, we could have a regular MAC cannon, instead of SMAC.

imchicken thats a good idea, i think it can be done, never tested it if those can have fighter bays,but it should work
canandaman np, im here to help, i just want to see the mod ready because id love to play a Halo space strategy

I like Imchicken's idea too. It wouldn't be that difficult either. And it can be done.

The only issue i see for Imchicken1's idea is, what is the limit per planet. One? If its more than the tactical slots required for the construction will have to be greatly reduced from the novaliths usual eight-teen

! And in the novels when it depicts close to if not more than a dozen SMAC's protecting earth/reach it really puts into question on not only resources required to build them, but how do you balance out the UNSC when the SMAC's are able to destroy multiple ships in one shot!!!

Oops, Just remembered that the UNSC ships have no shields lol. But maybe having a research ability for limited shield capabilities could be an option to make up for that tactical disadvantage!

P.S. Imchicken1, love the idea of hanger defense,repair platform, and defense platform all neatly rapped together in a convenient package lol. I was always under the impression the the SMAC's were just defense platforms only! Thanks the education.

The SMACs don't have to take up massive slots just massive resourses. As stated earlier the SMAC is around the size of 4-5 frigates so it should be expensive. And you were right the tactical disadvantage of not having shields does balance it out.

Also Imchicken's idea saves time because we won't have to bicker about hangers and repair platforms. Way to go :CONGRAT:

DAMN NO EDIT BUTTON AGAIN X-(

Also I do believe one or two plasma torpedoes can destroy one; evens it out even more. Hull restore rates should be bad so you will have to cluster them leaving weak spots where the enemy can attack.
