Halo 2 has more realistic weapons....but what about characters?

I think it is cool that vehicles take damage in different areas now. (i.e. as shown in the 2004 E3 trailer, the ghost and the warthog can take damage on lets say the wing, or the hubcaps can be shot off) I hope that the Master Chief and other characters in the game are able to take damage in the same way.....I dont mean to have people shoot people arms off so they can't hold any weapons, but, when i shoot a covanent with a rocket launcher, I want it to explode, with their blue dust-like blood everywhere....I dont want to see just the same old body I saw in the first place, all perfectly intact, and looking good as new....Same thing with the MC's....I would like to see burns on the suit if a grenade goes off near him, or dents in the armor if the MC falls from a height, or skimmed by a vehicle or something....I guess what i am trying to say is, I would like to see more realistic effects on the characters in the game.

Anyone else have any comments/suggestions?

Lol, have you ever whacked the tyres of a warthog on Halo 1? It makes a rubber sounding sound. Strange.

lol...a broken visor, and it makes it harder to see and aim, and maybe a little bit blurry for you during gameplay...

I really that if a soldier got shot in the leg he would limp.

I also think if they get shot and cant carry on they crawl on the ground, that would be crazy.

yeah, the marines would maybe take a brake and put down their gun....hehe, we could then go and take the marines gun and throw down another one, so he picks up and helps you kill enemies with a different gun....this could be useful...you could plan your attack more, choose which weapons you want to take into the next battle, after you are weakened.....or maybe just have the option to take a gun out of you marines hands, and give him another one.

lol,it would also be cool if a wounded marine was on a battle field a brave marine would have the guts to go out were all of the gun fire is and save the wounded marine and other marines are giving him cover fire and covenant try to kill them both.

Hell yeah! this is getting good....maybe have some medic marines....or marines that would give cover like you said....this will probably be in the game, bungie said that the AI will be greatly improved.

If you get shot in the arm, you should hold your arm and shoot with one hand with bad aim.
