How do you think HALO 2 will use stealth? wouldn't it be pretty sweet to instead of melee attackin someone in the back, u can do a variety of neck snappin bone crushing techniques to terminate ur enemy? Also wouldn't it be awsome to be able to move into 3rd person perspective in certain moments, like if u wanted to climb up a ledge? Or how bout hand to hand combat(maybe kool)? It wud maybe be a little like the chronicles of Riddick, which i'e only been hearing good things about. Ummm...well post any replies about my ideas and feel free to post ur own.

Well.... i want HALO 2, not the chronicles of riddick. And stealth isnt in Halo's catagory. Halo is a FPS, not an RPG.

no there is a shadow meter to show how visible you are int he dark, but the covies will have flashlights so they can find you....sometimes stealth will make sense, yes to melee or to throw a grenade right in the middle of a group. yes but not all that greusome stuff like bone snapping it isnt halo, boy. Yu cant ask in a forum to have halo 2 try to be like some other game....its the other way around...all other games try to be like halo 2! weee hee hee hee

Draerden creeps out of the darkness and slams the unsuspecting Spanky 551 in the back of the head with the butt of his shotgun. "No Stealth in Halo my arse," he whispers as he dissappears as quietly as he approached, never once appearing on radar.

Halo2 isn't Splinter Cell (though Splinter Cell is good mind you) bottem line: Dont tamper with tried and tested material

I agree. It should not be Splinter Cell. I do like the stealth features they are including so far. I love the idea of "Peeking" but other then the ability to go prone and crawl I don't need anything else.

I don't need a stealth bar, nor do I need a button to hold my breath when people are nearby so they don't hear me.

Good Old Fashioned Halo1 stealth is good enough for me.

Spanky551 wait to respawn. When he does he returns to his orginal position. He waits till Draerdan comes up behind him and turns around imediatly to face him. "Stealth this". He throws a plasma grenade on and sticks right to his face. Draerdan runs around in circles for a couple of seconds then explodes in a mist of blue.

ok ok...ic how it is, everyone gain up on me. lol, but ea i kno what u guys are sayin, but i want at least SOME sort of more stealth. it wud be cool to choose to be a stealthy person or a guy who goes crazy all the time, maybe a little of both...but uhh about ot bein like sam fisher, just because he can snap a neck doesnt mean hes sam. i mean common thats the thing(proabably the only thing) that bugs me in halo, a hit to the back and they die. isnt a bullet from a gun made that far in the future supposed to make more damage than a punch or a smack? also the bone snappin thing...that wud be kool since hittin someone in the ribs can brake their ribs, a cybernetic guy lik MC should do more damage(everytime u hit a dead enemy that noise came up too). ok well i think that about covers it.
