What would I need for Halo: Reach to be perfect?
1. Spartan standard is back to MJOLNIR Mark V.
2. Bungie gathers some foresight and makes their armour permutations something that they can add onto in future updates and downloads. Honestly, how did they not anticipate the fans wanting more?
3. Elites, if they are in multiplayer, getting decent armour types. More spikes and fewer mandible-guards. There's a reason people pick Combat the most.
4. All the weapons in Halo 2 and 3 are brought into the game's sandbox, including Brute Plasma Rifle and Gold Sentinal Beam. Also would be nice: having every variation of gun be an option for custom maps (M6D Pistol included. Don't have to put it IN any official map layouts, but the option is nice).
5. A map editor that can also be a map maker. This is simply the same as forge, except with a choice of item skins (a small list, maybe three or four options per map) and the ability to hit the B-button to Undo the last monitor-based change you made to the map.
6. For the online multiplayer, the ability to enter it in two modes; Matchmaking and Server (like Half-Life). That way, you can join random folks who are playing their custom varients.
7. Augmentation of the model-movement as it is to become auto-reactive; if you are hit by an explosion, you go tumbling and you end up righting yourself without clicking any buttons -- but you are clearly using arms and legs and motions in-game to right yourself. Akin to Assassin's Creed and Mirror's Edge have the auto-climb movements.
8. The ability to toggle dual-wielding swords, or simply the ability to dual-wield swords (removes lunging option).
A bunch more, but you asked what would make it perfect. I don't think it'll be perfect. Pretty darn good, though.
A lot of those are good ideas!!!
Weather permutations would b nice.
But mybe we are focusingtoo much on the current Halo and this will be a different type of game
