This post goes out to Bungie and to all the real Halo 1 fans. We need Halo 1.5. We want Halo 1, but including the few good features from Halo 2. To start off with, all the levels from both Halo 1 and 2, except Waterworks (Master Chief doesn't like to run marathons). Vehicle jacking is very cool, because you can counter banshee and ghost tyros (n00bs). Also, no heat seeking rockets, come on, hold R and you got yourself a kill. Any skill there was with the rocket in H1 is now gone. Sudden death is inequitable. For example, Single Flag CTF Fast Lockout. As soon as the flag reaches near the courtyard, they can all die and then respawn and start the timer all over again. This happened to us in a game against a team extremely higher than us and we lost because they contested forever. Also, sadly one of what was expected to be the selling features of the game, dual wielding was an absolute let down. For example, on Ivory Tower or Ascension, when you spawn you are completely disappointed with an underpowered and poor excuse for a weapon (SMG). Then, when you start to get going somewhere, one, two, or three people come along with 2 guns each. Do the math, and your gun-to-gun ratio is about 1:3 or 1:6. You stand absolutely no chance, no matter how bad the enemy is. And there is the sword (aka Noob stick). Enough said. Fall damage and health should be back. Spartans can’t just jump off a building and walk off perfect. The game physics, i.e. jumping, running, and etc. from Halo 1 were a lot better. And instead of assault, have a game type called “Not Assault.” You find me one person who enjoys planting bombs on Halo. THAT’S WHAT COUNTER-STRIKE IS FOR! Also, why is there no optimatch? Why do people have to be on your friend’s lists to be in your party and play? Why can’t we just say that we cant CTF Zanzibar and get an unranked game going for fun? Also, splitting the screen isn’t smooth and easy like it was in Halo 1. There is just unnecessary action on the screen. Why is there a circle with an X? What good does that do? But hey Bungie, you still have some good features from Halo 2. In Halo 1.5, keep all the customizable features of multiplayer games. Also, parties a very clever idea. The party system is great how friends can move and join games as one party. Medals are awesome. How cool is it to say post game, “Hey, you see those four stars? That’s me going killtacular on you!” Every single medal is awesome. It’s just a great way to see how you played. Also, going past killtacular and running riot is very cool. Just gives you more to go for. Emblems are cool as well. You can customize your Spartan and add creativity. Headsets are critical. Only not so sweet thing about voice chat is proximity. What if white button toggles team only chat, and everybody chat or at least proximity everybody. Scores on the bottom corner are good as well. One of the most impressive features is the post game carnage report. It is so cool looking at that in such detail. Great job there Bungie. Well Bungie, hope you’ll take this into serious consideration. All in, the benefits from Halo 2 are outweighed by the drawbacks.
