[Jam Cliché]

Just saw this on Waypoint forums. I'll need to do some more reading, but hey, check it out!

[Nicholas Sapien]

Seriously though, looks interesting. At least I can spam ODSTs! :D

[Spattan177]

Just let us know when it comes out and if you need any help we have different kinds of people here that might specialize in something you are looking for.

Will do - I advise you keep an eye on the site or follow on twitter as there is a big update each week, and in addition, there are minor updates occasionally! Be sure to comment on posts if you ever have specific questions.

I am glad there are some people here excited for it; development is chugging along and we are slowly approaching the finish line of Phase 1 :)

You can update it, but I'll be visiting your site every once and a while

ship to ship warfare
Fleet vs Fleet warfare
Ground warfare
elements combining all 3 of the above to provide bonuses for each other
I know its UNSC, but I wouldn't mind fighting other people, maybe I don't mind cause its different in our lore?
I had an idea to combine all that with a 1st person shooter and people could have chosen sides like UNSC or Covenant. They could have chosen their path like ground or naval warfare and rank up their guys(ex. Soldier<Marine<ODST<Spartan IV<Spartan III< Spartan II)(for naval ex. frigate, destroyer, cruiser, carrier, etc build fleets) then they would have to fight and take over each other's planets til they capture the enemy capital, then the process repeats and the war is reset(before anyone else says "hey isn't that like what we do in FC?" it is, but I came up with the idea in middle school, so :p )
I planned all that to be on 2 different discs, one for naval and one for ground

I like halo

I admire your passion for the game!

To begin with it's going to be ground based for us and when I set out I chose for the game to strictly (as much as possible) follow HALO's lore and stay within canon. We do have the ships to upgrade. A ship provides a player with 'X' amount of space for units and much more.
Unit updgrades are available but are currently limited to equipment, not theoretical evolutions.

I love this idea for your game, NOW DO IT MY WAY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Fix't.

[Glitch100]

Fix't.

Aha :D - Thank you for finding the site by the way dude.

[VerbotenDonkey]

I saw your post on Waypoint awhile ago, and I don't know 100% about the game, but I thought it would be interesting for a small customization for your units, similarly to how LOTR: BFME2 did. Eventually if the units survive long enough you can name them, give them their own emblems, etc. Maybe some small customization so you can get attached to them? I think it would be neat. Keep it up, I always love people outside of Microsoft who do HALO-related content. :)

Due to the potential scope of the game, for now, small customisation is what it is - they will be named on generation currently, however we have considered allowing players to rename. Gives for more personalisation to players. And thanks!

Finally had a chance to look into it. Sounds kickass :)

Thanks for all the feedback guys..

There has been another update - and possibly the last one if you guys hadn't seen it yet.

This one talks about Xbox One development - and if you are interested, the date for testing!

New Weekly update just dropped for those that are interested, talking about 3D Modelling, dev progress and a battle between a Spartan IV and an ODST :)

Booo. ODST for life! :P

Can't wait to see some of this game in action! It sounds exciting!

So unit leveling seems very advanced for a strategy game. This is an exciting prospect, as it's always seemed like something often missing from the genre. The original "veterancy" concept description got my hopes up, but you previously only described it as a limited set of upgrades. I'm glad to see that there's a more progressive leveling system involved.

[Glitch100]

Well currently when a player has a unit they can purchase upgrades (new weapons to start with) For that unit type. So whenever they buy that unit again they have those upgrades unlocked. You have to equip them onto each unit individually, however this is in the air still...In addition Units gain experience and level up [Veterancy] this in turn affects their stats during battles.

May implement a more advanced system as time goes on but for Phase 1 testing - this is all that is needed.

I love it. A way to upgrade base attributes of new units as well as level up units already deployed. You've got a good thing going there.

Small updates are out on the site if anyone wants to read up. F2P and more...Expect a weekly on wed/thurs of this week:

This.

I respect if a game ever goes from F2P to a P2P expansion, but micro transactions are shit, and nearly every game that tries that model only survives with a minimal population of addicts.

Microtransactions could be fine if done properly, they just never are.

Wow! It's really nice to see that you guys are taking your time in the development phase. This way I'm sure your product will be something you can be very proud of, and tear I'm sure we will all enjoy using! I just hope you enjoy Christmas a little with all the work you're doing. Haha

Aha thanks savage :) Yea I will try. I really hope it's a success - as if it gets enough coverage, traffic users etc, it will keep it self alive, and then I can move onto a big project that I can make into a living.. Gotta make something for everyone first though :)
