| '''Fireteam''' is a gameplay mechanic found in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''. With it, the player can recruit up to five [[UNSC Army]], [[Colonial Militia|Militia]], [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]], [[UNSC Air Force|Air Force]] pilots, and [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] troopers found through the [[campaign]]. These troopers will then follow the player throughout the level, and their status is shown in the player's [[Heads-up display|HUD]] next to the [[motion tracker]]. Each friendly combatant has a randomly assigned name and rank, which are based on [[Bungie]] staff and notable community members and are not tied to their in-game models.<ref>'''''[[Halo: Reach]]'''''</ref> | | '''Fireteam''' is a gameplay mechanic found in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.

| ==Production notes==
| |
| During the [[Development of Halo: Reach|development]] of ''Halo: Reach'', [[Bungie]] at one point considered extending the fireteam system to apply to playing as the [[Covenant]] (likely intended for Elite players in [[Firefight]]).{{Ref/Twitter|zeddikins|1385070962014658563|zeddikins|Quote=What did Bungie know?|D=13|M=02|Y=2022}}

| |
| Fireteam names have been datamined for all of the species in the game: [[Unggoy|Grunts]], [[Sangheili|Elites]], [[Kig-Yar|Jackals]], [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]], [[Yanme'e|Drones]], [[Huragok|Engineers]] and [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]].{{Ref/File|HREK|tags\ui\global_strings}} Some of the names from these lists have since been used to name characters in ''Halo'' canon; these include the Elite warrior [[Ciar 'Yaham]], [[Arbiter]]s [[Heki 'Gibadee]] and [[Vema 'Togad]], the Brutes [[Bassus]] and [[Cethegus]]. The name 'Ahtulai was also used to name several aspects of later fiction including the ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'' [[Warzone]] boss [['Ahtulai]], the [['Ahtulai Workshop]] and [[Vero 'Ahtulai]].
