Will Halo 3 have a cover system?

I don't know about you but after playing Gears of War and Rainbow Vegas, I find playing first person shooters without a cover system to be really old fashioned.

Does anyone know if Halo 3 will have cover?

I hope so, because if it does not I fear it may be a flop!

"Cover system doesn't work with an fps. "

False. Play Rainbow Six. Lot's of reviewers actually say it's a better cover system then gears (mainly because you dont stick to walls when you dont want to).

The point is about cover systems not first person shooters!!

Cover systems rock and ANY shooter in this generation without a cover system will be second rate.

Oh i should buy that game, the only fps cover system I have played was in this awful game I can't even remember the title to that just ruined it for me.

Halo is a fast paced game unlike Gears of War and Vegas.

Even if they could it would change the gameplay completely and that is not what they intend to do as MANY gamers would flip and cause a Riot at Bungie studios.

Rainbow Six has awesome cover, but as many other have posted, it would change halo too much. Halo is all about the run and gun.JakeArmstrong

that's good news, i just bought R6V and i'm about to pop 'er in!!!

obviously you haven't played Rainbow Six Vegas, which happened to be an FPS with a great cover system. so either you are uninformed or you disagree with everyone.

First off, in Rainbow 6 Vegas you die WAY faster, and the gameplay is much more tactical, thus the need for a cover system.

Now, in Halo, it obviously takes longer die, and the game is based on faster pace, run and gun combat; and anyway, if you really need cover, pop a bubble shield.

I'm not a fan of the cover system in R6:V. From what I played (the multi-player only that is) it was merely a campfest. However, the mechanics worked well and i'm sure it was good in SP.

As for H3 I do not expect a cover system. I think it would have been revealed early on if they went that route...

lol

theTC doesnt know wat hes talkin bout

of course gears isnt an fps

and heck no halo is noooot in a thousand years going to have cover

ever

EVER

NO, Halo 3 will NOT have a cover system!

fps cant work in a cover system except for vegas and thats it....and vegas will probly change most fps to a cover system..

but for halo no it wont have a cover system cause its run and gun...like other people said..not much tactical game play...

and if u played the beta than u know it deffently doestn have a cover system...cant wait for this game :):):)

Camping is universal in every shooter, Halo is notoriously known for this. Also, camping isn't the greatest of strategies in R6:V because all it takes is a grenade or a tactile flank to eliminate these problems.

That doesn't make any sense, a cover system can only work in one fps, maybe right now but Jesus if you believe that never ever will another fps work with a cover game then prepared to be wrong in the future. Also, I hate to say it but a select few of MasterCheif69s out there will play every game like a run and gun rather than a tactical so I say that on XBL the tactical game isn't there for the majority of matches.

FEAR didnt have a cover system, and was superior to many FPS out there, including Rainbow Six Vegas. Call of Duty 4 probably won't have a cover system either, and it will be amazing, just like CoD 2. These games do offer you a lean function, but it is hardly necessary.

Cover systems are also completely unrealistic -- since when can you see the entire field of battle in front of you with your head down behind concrete?

Sometimes you don't want to sit there in cover waiting for guys to stick their heads out. Sometimes you want you run into the thick of battle blasting and switching weapons and hopping around like a madman. And Perfect Dark Zero had a cover system, and it absolutely sucked. Also, if you think Bioshock is second rate, you are beyond help man.

No..Halo with a cover system would be lame...it would make the multiplayer slower....MasterTony
