Thoughts on AAs (esp. Bubble Shield and Hologram)
Posted By: Duncan <ncsuduncan@gmail.com>Date: 7/12/10 2:53 p.m.


This is mostly just me thinking aloud and letting my imagination get the best of me.

- CTF infiltrator team: 2 people use Active Camo, 2 people use Hologram. The defenders camping at the flag spawn suddenly have jammed radars and can't tell that the enemies walking in are just holograms. This confusion lets the Active Camo users sneak in and take advantage of reloading defenders.

- I can't wait to Sprint into a teammate's Bubble Shield and those wonderful healing vapors.

- If you and your teammates all pick the same Armory options and look identical the Hologram might be even more effective. How will your Blue enemies pick a target in 4v4 Team Slayer when there are 8 identical Red guys running toward them?

- The Bubble Shield is going to be great in CTF for both offense and defense. Since it recharges and (from what I can tell) deploys faster, it seems like your teammates might be more likely to protect the flag runner (or flag returner).

- I'm looking forward to having my opponents forgetting they have Bubble Shield equipped instead of Armor Lock, especially when I'm boosting towards them in a Ghost.

- If the Hologram ability is allowed in Big Team Battle, does that mean there could be 32 Spartans running around at once?

- If there's an option to use the Jetpack while holding the flag, does that mean you could use Hologram to send defenders chasing after a holo-flag?

- At least once I'll probably bail out of a Falcon, watching my passengers plummet into an abyss while I jetpack to safety.

- Zombies variant: Ghosts. The humans are going to go crazy shooting at enemies that aren't even real. Save the Last Bullet is going to be much harder.
