I'm wondering where people stand regarding this, please vote.

If you voted Yes: Tell us why you think we should play as Master Chief in this game.

If you voted No: Tell us why you are against having Master Chief as a playable character in Halo: Reach.

I'm hoping they make it like ODST where you can play as multiple characters.

There were a great many Spartans on Reach. I would love to play as a different one. :)

No, If you read the book The Fall of Reach Chief is not on Reach he is doing another mission.

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

I'm pretty sure that's the point. You'll be playing as multiple characters in the game, I'll bet.

I think in First Strike Chief heads back to Reach to rescue Dr. Halsey and the remaining Spartans there. This could be an opportunity when we could play from the Chief's point of view.

No. I'd like to play as a new character with mystery.

If any of you read the books you would know that there are about 8 or 9 Spartans that made it off reach or they were off doing other missions else where. It likely that those other Spartans would make up the new story(s). Also Master Chief is from the Spartan ll program and there is little said in any book/game about the first spartan program. There is also the other spartan programs that were going on if you read the book: The Ghost of Onxy plus there are Spartans there from the spartan ll program. Bungie has a lot of room for a different story line/game. READ THE BOOKS THEY LET YOU IN ON A LOT MORE GOING ON THEN YOU THINK. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fall_of_Reach

True but I think that takes place after Halo:CE so the battle of Reach would be over.

Everyone has been playing with the Chief throughout all the Halo games. I think its time to play through another Spartans point of view :) like Spartan-104 "Fred" for instance would be good :)

  • 06.02.2009 3:08 PM PDT

I think he should be an optional playable character but you should also be able to play as the others like linda and fred

I'm not against it...its just that we don't need so much "MASTER CHIEFYNESS SUPER AWSOMENESS" anymore.

besides not everything has to be from his view... It would be better to have it from someone else point of view

I also am hoping to play as or with Fred and Kelly, it would be nice to see how they hold up against the mental image I have of them from reading the books.

Wait, I heard somewhere that Reach was a lost fight soooooo why not play in Covenate perspective? I mean you play as a Spartan in all the other Halo games besides ODST so if the battles going to be lost why not play on the winning team just an idea.

  • 06.02.2009 3:42 PM PDT

"Nobody asks to be a hero, it just sometimes turns out that way."

HALO 4

i just hope the ending of the game you win an epic ground war and beat the covenant back. when all of a sudden the whole planet gets glassed and you just see a huge plasma beam come down and its like a nuke going off. the last words you hear would have to be pretty epic though. i can't think of anything right now maybe something like "We lost...." in a sad voice or something along those lines

  • 06.02.2009 3:55 PM PDT

I think they should make it a game where you are in a Squad, like Halo 3: ODST, except with Spartans, and on a different setting and campaign.

I got his sarcasm...one person has to implement sarcasm and then you get a pile of terrorist chipmunks crashing your party, not fun at all..

I reckon you should play Fred, the leader of red team.

KEEP IT CLEAN

Haha that would be biblical (I'm replacing epic with biblical from now on).

I'd rather play as a bunch of different Spartans. That would be biblical.

  • 06.02.2009 3:58 PM PDT

I wouldn't want to play as the Master Chief. Maybe he can make an appearance in form of a cameo, but i wouldn't want to make the story any more inconsistent than it has been made in the past day.

I have to admit I like this idea, playing from the Covenant side could prove to be exciting.
I'm stuck between wanting to play as Fred's squad of Spartans, and wanting to play as the Covenant now.

Everyone who clicked "No" is going to wish they clicked "Yes" after playing Halo 3: ODST, better yet, it would be pretty -blam- awesome to play as another... say, spartan.

  • 06.02.2009 4:16 PM PDT

I'd like a change, and Master Chief has become too much of an icon to find interesting anymore. On the other hand, it would seem unwise to change such a winning formula.
