if theres gona be a second halo wars, its gota have a game type under space battle, instead of bases you have a big ship, not to big tho, same size has a base, you can do the same as you can with the ground base, upgrade it, you have side panales on the ship where you can build stuff, they will look like normal ships (most likeley a specil one, like the sprit of fire ( a battle cruser mixed in with a cargo )) you will be able to pick the same has you do on a ground base, the reactors / power depending on what team you pick, ( HUMANS) --- would look simerler to the reacter on the 14th level on halo wars ( the human one that you have to get to the top of the mountain with the eliphant ) ,and you can upgrade it to be bigger. you wont have a baracks cos infrantry cannot fly in space, and it would just look stuipid if there in space suits, but any way lets get on, you would be able to build shields, ( both unsc and covernant ), you will be able to buy a upgrade center, where you can upgrade stuff such as your army size and so on, depending on what charicter you pick, you can upgrade there special abilty there as well such as the mac, and the turrets for your base / ship. ( when i say ship i mean you cannot move it, more like a space station ill tell you why later ) you can bulild a ship docking site, simerler to the sumit and airpad, but you create smaller ships, the infriltry for your battle, youll have the option to bulld a verierty of ships such as ( HUMANS) -  the short and long sword figter class, for the small ships, they would look like, be the same size has a warth hog on this game type, to represent the size of the main ships such as the cruises you can build and your spacestation. and finnaly you can build resource pads.

 it would be the same for the covernant but diffrent sort of ships, and a diffrent looking reacter.

 

 add on your ideas here for the space battle game type:  ( need more for the covernant )

 

This space battle idea isn't Halo Wars, it's a completely different type of game.  Plus being in space makes all sorts of problems for a rts.  On flat ground the units only have to move in two dimensions (even the air units, they can "fly" but really they just hover a set height above the ground).

 If the battle was in space, yet all the space fighters were hugging an invisible battlefield, it would look rather odd.  You'd expect them to move in three dimensions, which could never work with a strategy game.

oh right just thought it would be cool to move around units such as the "sort sword fighter, and cruiser's" + thought it would be cool having your space station as your base, adding things onto it such as resource pads and shields, hangerbay even, where you can build your ships, defensive and offensive. thought of an idea to solve the map problem tho, here's what it is:  put in metorite's as part of the scenery so you have to move your units around them, you can have big one's and smaller ones, if the proggraming is better in the futre, ( which is most likeley ) you can make them move around, like a metroite belt. the smaller units such as the swort swords will fly over them as if they were the hills on the normal battle field, where as the big units such as the cruisers would fly around them, you could even put in planets on the outer edge of the map, or even in the center.  (on some off the maps on halo wars, there is pads where you can bulid an extra resource pad's or barracks, vercle factory and air pad, same for the covernant, but this time on the bigger metrorites you can bulid them there ) you would have gas clouds where you cannot move therew because they would damage your units,and debri, and so on...

theres many possible ideas you could use in this sort of map!

but most off all its just another gamtype to play on xbox live, or even the odd couple of campaign missions for halo wars 2, thats if they do a halo wars 2, who no's?

 

They should add some leader(s) and the covenant should have a command menu like a spirit transport and planetary strikes. There should also be a option to be sentinels or the flood. I thought for if there was space mode you should have almost like a space station that can make reactors and supply pads etc then you can make different types of ships like Battle ships cruisers and Dreadnoughts or A command ship like Spirit of Fire that does the job of a elephant like it can make small ships and have its own supply area. What I wished This is very unlikely it would take years maybe but like for a command ship can make ships that carry fire bases like when you make a new base in HW so there could be ships that carry bases and vehicles to the planet I have always wished that. Plus The Covenant could have all of what is said like there own Command ship.

 

SCREW SPACE BATTLES, STOP MAKING POSTS ABOUT IT

sound really cool but maybe a sortof combined ground/space rts where you control the spirit of fire's actions helping the ground forces and of course epic space battles. not that i'm any kind of expert on the matter but just contributing to your idea. the space rts thing has being done succsesfuly in the past, eg.Homeworld/Homeworld 2 which had the different height gameplay thing working well. anyway space battles would bring a new feel to the halo world which would probably work rather well.

Oh and what about neutral (useable by everyone) vehicles in hangerbays. and airlocks to go through to places of the ship and the marines can lose people depending on how many population the vehicle costs.

no to halo space battles unless in centimatics. period. to many balancing issues, and since when can space ships only fly flat and not up and down? how do you get recourses, how would buildings work? buildingspace stations? sorry but space battles dont work

ships dont stay in the hanger they just get built there, like the job of the air pad, or vehicle depo,

 and its not a game just based on space battles, its just the odd couple of missions on the campaign, and maybey a online gametype, or theres a couple of maps set for the space battle, and you just have to come across it in a standerd or deathmatch gametype.

oh and do you now like i said the short sword figter would be about the same size as the warthog ( to reprasent the size of your base ) the space station, you can have vultras the same size aswell, because vultra is both a space craft and ground vercle, also when you call in a carpet bomb you see a short sword fly down to drop the bombs and it is about the same size as a vultra.

also when i thought of the idea i dident want the big cruisers to be in it because they would be about the same size as the space station, and that would look bad, the space station would be the same size as the base on the ground, but of course would be repasented as bigger by the size of the vultras and short sword, so we need a ship about the size of a resouce pad, 

any idea's for the covernant, plese post, heres one of mine:

they have bording pods as a unit that attaches itself to the side of your space station, ( very weak unit ) if you do not destroy them within a minitue of it bording, then they woud destroy that base but they need at least 6 attached to the base to start the count down. they would look simaler to the bording pods on halo 2, cryo station ??? ( the idea is that if they attach some covernant will borde the ship, but they need more, to attuley take over the ship)

the idea came from halo combat evolved where the piller of autem gets over runned, and on halo 2 where the crayo station nearley gets blown up, due to covernant bringing a bomb on board

any other ideas? and what do the people that disagree think we can change to make it better!

There should also be a map editor and new units vehicles and aircraft. Technically Star Wars Empire at War but with space stations, ships that can have spots like hangers and turrets and fire base carriers also big Cargo ships that can like bring units/vehicles and aircraft to the surface so you can have a 2 way battle almost. But that would take years with this and my last comment comment combined. That would be  like the Best RTS  of all Time. To also be rebels and make like those ten Grunt squads and Elite Squads plus the Grunts with Fuel Rods. Maybe you could choose if it is just a space or just a ground. for the ground you should be able to be rebels flood or sentinels but in space mode you could be UNSC Covenant or flood would have a floodified space stations and ships and it could shoot down flood bases. for covenant to send vehicles/Infantry/aircraft by teleporting and for bases they'd use that beam that makes the bases. But when they send them to the surface it can only be a certain area. I also wished that you code press a certain button that makes you the unit you selected. I still think there should be a Map editor. But for the 2 Way Mode you can go to a certian point almost like there is only one  Map you can go to. Also  the maps should be a little bigger

Well, one of my favorite 90's games was called Supremacy which had 3d strategy space battles and I still enjoy playing it.

 

The real reason a Halo space rts would not work is that it could never be enjoyable AND true to Halo cannon at the same time. Humans rarly won a space battle that they didn't have a 3:1 advantage against the covies, and even then the covies destroyed far more ships then they lost. Changing that would give it an unHalo feel, and a game where you get slaughtered even if you win would suck.

Thats a good point actulley, but theres probley a way to get past that such as the amount of units allowed, the damage of units, as it is a stratigie game, the covie has stronger units in space but not on the ground, thats why they have more units, and the unsc as less,

Stop with the space battles. I already made a similar thread about a year ago. Use the search bar before you post.

"Dear Humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret coming to Earth, and we most definetly regret that the Corp just blew up our raggedy ass fleet! HOO RAH!"

well actually they arent going to make a halo wars 2 because the company that made it went out of business like right after they released the game. when well people actually use there head and think and not ask dumb questions like seriouly grow some balls dude.
