Gameplay

What do you guys think the gameplay will be like? Will it possibly be like Halo or now that activision is in on it, Call of Duty? (I hope not COD) Then, i also saw some people saying it will possibly be like Borderlands. Just creating the topic so you guys could voice your thoughts and opinions.

  • I think it would be cool to have a variation of first person and third person. When in "non combat" areas (like the city) it would be 3rd person, but a very interactive 3rd person like Assassins Creed. In combat situations it would be your typical first person shooter.

  • From the small amounts of gameplay that were shown in the Vidoc, I found that the game looked very much like that of Halo (using the same engine, most likely?), so I'm guessing that if they are indeed using the same engine, the gameplay will reflect this as in creating somewhat similar gameplay to that of previous games (Halo). Though, it IS a new game, with new elements and technology. I'm sure the gameplay will be unique on it's own.

    • The game will be a sci-fi shooter MMO, so i would say it will be borderlands style mainly, specially how theres only 3 classes, warlock, hunter and titan, but bungie have stated that there will be a fully featured competitive multiplayer mode so im not sure how it will all work out. Ontop of all that you have to be online to play the game, theres no offline mode, plus theres no main menu, your in the game as soon as you boot up your disk, this tells me its more MMO than anything else. In my opinion, and from what ive heard, the game is just what i like.

      • I think the Gameplay will be like Halo, I think Bungie is smart enough to still cater to their old fans.

        • Warlock=mage Hunter=Range Titan=Tank MMO gameplay should be intense battles when everyone gets the hang of it

        • Based off of the few seconds of gameplay footage that we have actually seen, I would guess that it is some medium between the Halo Series and Call of Duty. I noticed what appeared to be a red-dot sight on one of the guns during the reveal, so I suspect that at least gunplay will be similar to Call of Duty. The RPG elements and Classes makes methink that bungie took a leaf out of Gearbox's book and made it a class based RPG, but that is just speculation and it may very well be speraed into missions like Dishonoured. But if that were the case, I would be somewhat disappointed.

        • Impossible to say, but there certainly will be vehicle/infantry mixed gameplay so thats something to consider.

        • I'm hopeful that it will carry mostly shooter mechanics with the added bonus of giving players a ton of customization in terms of gear, which I guess basically describes Borderlands. But I can't tell if the gear is going to be 100% cosmetic or will offer bonuses to different stats, since they haven't really described any sort of a leveling system. The idea of purely cosmetic gear is interesting, since there are very few games that will only give you a cosmetic change. I would almost prefer that since then you don't have to dig into the stats to decide if it's better or not, you can just equip it if you like how it looks.

        • I think it will be like halo with some cod things in it. I hope it's more of an MMO though. I want this game to be something I can keep playing without getting bored fast (Call of Duty).

        • Truthfully I think the gameplay will be completely different from what we have seen on consoles so far. Maybe more like some computer games like Eve online. If you do not know what that is I recommend checking it out its pretty cool. If you were asking about control scheme for the controller I think it will probably be more like Halo.

            I'd imagine a cleaner version of borderlands with enhanced graphics and better animations. Oh, and without loot coming out of enemies like confetti.

              Gameplay should be about figuring out an enemy's strenghts and weaknesses, what weapons are effective to defend yourself against them or to counter their's. It should be about problem solving basically, over and over again.■
