How will races be balanced?
#5
Yeah Brutes won't turn up frequently. Hunters will still be around, but we'll be "creative" with our interpretation of how tanky they are and you'll probably be able to kill them with a few rockets to the face. I like the idea of Covenant being in a race against time to take out the UNSC before the UNSC can tech up, because that's basically what happened over the course of the first 4 games (when the Infinity launches the UNSC officially overtakes the Covenant IMO).

The way I'm planning to do ranking is a combination of job role and player experience with the role (self ranked). For UNSC this is pretty easy, eg pilots could get a choice of Lieutenant, Captain or Major, or the ship captain could have a rank of Lieutenant Commander, Commander or Captain. The ranks would all have effectively the same permissions and responsibilities but indicate their level of experience/seniority.

I'm on the fence about Cov players being anything other than elites. There's such a disparity in survivability that I'd only want players do it as a respawn thing (everyone starts as Elite... you die you only get to respawn as a grunt or jackal).
