Form teams and ideas for a REAL mod here.

Everyone here is talking about modding and such, but they are talking about a map. I think that a "mod" is reserved for that which is a total moddification of the game it self. Like Counter-Strike is to Half-Life.
I understand that the resources to mod are not available at this time, but all the more time to create and pound out ideas and teams. I would like this thread to be a place where people can form teams and pass around ideas for a full mod. Let us use this time wisely...respectfully.

Do you mean like to plan and jump the SDK when it comes out?
Or try to do this crap now? 'Cause if you say the second one, I'm gonna have to call you an idiot.
But from the post I can see you're saying the first one, so what I want is a BF-type mod(classes, all the vehicles, etc) but there's a Halo mod for BF coming out(uh it's exactly what I want) so if you can get new ideas off of that, it's
here. It's going to come out in like, a couple of days.
New conflict-type thing with MC( like a single player mod, you know?) would be real cool too, 'cause I really like the story of Halo as well. Matter O' fact, I made a fan-fic at the forums of the site I just gave you. Try the Fanfiction/Theories section(

). Anyway, try this kinda stuff out.

yes...I meant the first one

.
I have ideas just not the know how. So I figured that once a lot of people posted ideas and team needs I would pitch in...or if you are really interested drop me an e-mail. I have a feeling it could be an awsome mod, but I guess everyone says that. I would love to form a team that could help me lay everything out (code, models, features) everyone would have a say...everything.
I would kinda be the team leader, not to be concieted or anything, I just don't know how to do most of the stuff...but they could teach me....I love to learn that kind of stuff. By team leader I would just try to choreograph everyone and keep them on task and interested, not be a "boss" I am no better than them or anyhing....just so people know they don't have to answer to me or that I get the say all be all

I can't wait to get started making my mod. Once Bungie/M$ releases the SDK, a few of my friends and I are going to create a mod with some RPG characteristics (classes, NPCs, leveling, inventory(maybe)), more team-based strategy, and of course phat azz new vehicles and weapons to go with the change in gameplay. We haven't really worked out the details too well as of yet, but it looks promising.

You mean a whole mod of just that? Or are you just talking about a map? If you made it it's own mod/game, not a map, then there could be any kind of vehicles and...well that could end up very cool if it is done right actually.

This has prob been mentioned before but, a huge human vs covenant war would be cool. With different classes for each side. That would be cool.

thats actually quite easy, and in fact i believe bungie meant for multiplayer to do it as u notice there is a biped, adn a biped multi, it would be easy to put a covie over the regular biped, and make one team spwn as the biped, and other as biped_mp... and then u could do it like that.. just a thought tho

Counter-strike like sounds the best to me. Or we could stay in the Halo world and just expand upon the multiplayer that there already is and make it more team-like. Perhaps add the pelican for big team drops into enemy territory. Maybe add the soldier AI into the multiplayer and make a sort of Brute Force game out of Halo, I dono. If anybody really got some good ideas and talked about a worth playing mod I could lend my skills as a 3d modeler.
