I read an article in EGM magazine and they said that there might be a covenant campaign mode in halo 2. What do u think?

no way, it would take too long to make both campaigns. it would be a waste of time. I dont think it would be that fun to fight one species (the marines)

It would be too easy. You outnumber the enemy, and the marines are hopeless worthless pansies with no chance in hell of killing anything (but you by throwing a grenade at your feet)

Well, since AI is improved, they might pose more of a challenge, but it would still be way too easy.

Thats not the reason why bungie is taking soooooooooooooo long they were waiting for xbox live 3.0 we got the download when live was down that one day like a few months ago.
But it would be cool if with all that extra time they did create a covenent campaign mode.

I would be happy with possible one or two covenant spec ops missions. Like you are an elite or something and have to pentrate the HQ of an ODST base, and from there capture the map leading to generators that power the Super MAC orbital guns

are you joking me??? There is no way that woudl happen. Bungie wants to create a game that shows the view point of the underdogs (humans) And even if they did, they would have told us already. But there is no way that will happen, and i dont want it to happen. Maybe in a different series of games that is based on the cov, but not in this game... no way

yeah i have to agree it would be a waste of time since you would be playing as the amry who has millions upon millions of soldiers. unless you were a grunt then it would be very easy with no challenge at all.

No way it would ruin the concept of suvival.

I actually like the idea of Covenant Campaign mode. Maybe for a couple of you it would ruin the concept of survival. I'd rather think of it like " I'm an elite right now and I will kill a marine" and then I'd play the same level as a spartan and have the same respect for the game because now I find myself fighting what I once was...and that sorta scares me.

Either way I know Bungie is in the end making a great game, but I don't exactly see how it'd be a "disgrace" to have a Covenant Campaign. Even as an "after you beat legendary" unlockable. This is a discussion not an "attack idea" mode.

dude an elite took on like 5 marines at once and killed them all when i was playing one time. how would that even be remotely balanced. killing a marine would be as simple as killing an unarmed snail with an energy sword.

Lol why not just step on the snail instead of using an energy sword to me that's a lot easier

That's not the point, lol. I mean once you beat the game I'm sure you people will be wanting more. I just think it's a great idea, that's all. You could always fight ODSTs and there could be a limited amount of weapons for you or maybe your shield unit is broken. I could go on, but just liked the idea.

It is very possible because the bungie has continually delayed the game. So this has no reason for further requirement. Also, if it would be too easy then would not it be impossible to play the first halo? If you are just so outnumbered. If you as a human can pull through than that would provide enough of a challenege as a covenant.
