Subject: So...Grunts Again??

OMG it's Chriss... anyway a new species would be sweet but it wouldn't fit in chronologically so it probably won't happen.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

I don't think there will be any new Covenant species, hopefully new vehicles and factions for them though. Also, as you said, I'm hoping for some wildlife and neutral creatures that will attack you or your enemy.

I suppose if Reach is a FPS, it's gonna be somewhat similar to Halo.

Also the name, Halo Reach, gives us some way of thinking ts going to be somewhat like Halo.

I love fighting Grunts, especially with a certain silvery skull on.


Hell yeah

Cave Johnson here, we're done!

PS: If you are reading this comment while imagining my voice, don't panic. That's just a side effect of the testing.

I think what they should do is stay true to the storyline. Swarms of grunts (hundreds), packs of jackals, pairs of hunters, and either elite leading grunt troop, or a team of elites.

I think it would be interesting to bring the ferocity to the grunts by showing hundreds of them swarming at you. It would really show the intense power of the covenant. Rather than the penguin waddling, joke cracking, oompa loompa's that the grunts have become.

Uh I'm a bit of a noob, what's an "Achronos"?

Nintenman7: Apply yourself... Seggi31: HHHHNNNNNNGGGGG

I want to see some Engineers... And I want to see lots and lots and lots more hunters and drones, since they were hardly in the series. Elites should definitely be in the game again, I've been waiting forever to fight those dudes instead of fight with them... I expect to see just a little forerunner though. I've been dying for more forerunner. They are so interesting, the Sentinels and Monitors, I wish some of the original Forerunners would come back somehow, too, although they are, of course, that backing mystery to the game, and they aren't mentioned too much in the book. Oh well. I guess, like you, I'm sick of fighting brutes and grunts, it'll be good to see some elites again =D


I also want more Jackals!

Well wouldnt it most likely be jackles that would be most common considering they were the first covenant that were encountered?

  • 06.12.2009 8:43 PM PDT

Some unused creatures (not saying I want them all)

Huragok (Engineers)
Drinol
Stalker
Keelbug
Special purpose sniper
Alien Trooper

We should be fighting, primarily, Elites and Grunts and Jackals, with specklings of Hunters. In the timeline, those are the four that should be fought.

Drones are a possibility, and so are Brutes. However, both are rarer than they are in Halo 2 and Halo 3 simply because of the shift in the hierarchy at the time.


If they make the A.I. good enough, we can fight them again. If we have elites yelling "wort wort wort!" that also know to tumble to your cover, throw a grenade over and backpedal to cover, awesomeness will ensue.

If they can both acknowledge and implement what was great in the past as well as respectfully augment it with what is great about modern technology, that is how we get enemies that feel new yet familiar.

I know this might be a little too radical, but what if you were to play as the covenant? Be the attacking force instead of the defending force.

Engineers?

Noo...


I agree.
Why would we ever need to fight those?

All of them were cut and that's why I would like to see them.

If you already live in heaven, Where do you go when you die?

they need to bring the kick-ass dinosaurs from the Halo: CE beta vid to Reach... It would be like Turok... but better!

Wort wort wort!

Here is a thing I made: Linkage

Here is a Leet I made: Link BLARGH

I R SAY TEH HIS ASWELL

I think it would be cool if there were natural animals that the Covenant had used and trained. Maybe just fight them a little, maybe even once.

Or small things like Keelbugs. Just some small creatures meant to do small jobs that aren't even a main part of the firghting.

All our dreams come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
The friend in my adversity I shall always cherish most. I can better trust those who helped to relieve the gloom of my dark hours than those who are so ready to enjoy with me the sunshine of my prosperity.
