Halo: Reach

Well, looking at this image, you can see the silhouettes of a few different characters on the bottom.

This is merely speculation, but could the games multiplayer component be class based? From the image, there appears to be a heavy weapons-like type of guy, a sniper, a regular infantry guy (assault or whatever) and two others, maybe flamethrower or something.

I just kind of thought this, because they're having the multiplayer beta when ODST comes out, and wondered why they had those characters on the bottom, other than that it looks good. We don't know much about the campaign yet, so they could have put those characters as a sort of hint.

But, this is just an Idea, maybe it is or isn't class based, but I think it would be kind of interesting to see.

I guess we'll find out sometime in the next few months, thoughts?

I dont think Bungie would change the way the game feels.

After all these games? Yes, they would. I wouldn't be surprised to find that Reach is Battlefield 2552.

So a Mass Effect rip-off like game?

TF2 4 teh lulz

Doubt the class based shooter thing... Spartans are good at everything- yes, some are better at other things than others... but to have any class (spartan) particularly bad at something would be kinda not Spartan-like.

[paladin]

Well, it could be like Halo Wars, have Spartans in the announcement trailer, then have them SUCK ingame.

Could be more like a tactical game. With squad style stuff and everything?

We don't even know what kind of game Halo: Reach is. All we know is it takes place around the time reach got nuked (glassed) and Spartans are in there. It could be an RTS, FPS, MMORPG (i would fucking kill bungie if it was) or even a third-person shooter.
