Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

I love the idea of free roaming, but it just wouldn't make sense for a game like this. Maybe they could add a little bit of everything, changing perspectives, free roam capable, and maybe some linear campaign.

Like for instance, you would have your perspective from a Spartan or something, you would then travel (however you wanted) to this destination to do something, like let us say, plant a bomb, you can take whatever path you want, but you still arrive at the same location, making the game somewhat linear.

Then after you are done your objective, it switches to a different perspective, or something.

Ya nice topic man.
I think that it should Switch perspectives throughout the game because there are different groups of spartans each with its own leader. It should switch between the different leaders.

storyline heavy games like halo are best served cold, with hot fries and some shakes.

multi-perspective gameplay provides better insight into a story arc than a single perspective, thats what i like most about H2's campaign. i think bungie made a mistake by going back to singular in H3

n00b hunter since 1996

it should be about master chief, or jon, janding on an unknown planet that has dangerous animals and monsters, and he has to find a radio to communicate with the unsc, only to relise its 2581 and the covenent return (not with ellites).

I completely agree.

Something unique. I like how theyr'e really doing something pretty much completely new in ODST, not only for halo, but for the most part, FPSes in general.

Same for reach. I'm not saying reach should be setup like odst though, but just unique.

waz up

Switch perspectives with a grunt FTW!

“Strange,” mused the Director, as they turned away, “strange to think that even in Our Ford’s day most games were played without more apparatus than a ball or two and a few sticks and perhaps a bit of netting. imagine the folly of allowing people to play elaborate games which do nothing whatever to increase consumption.”

It should be free roaming.

Wir sind die Elite

I liked the Halo 2 style with switching perspectives...so I hope it will be like this

  • 06.29.2009 8:24 AM PDT

I think that switching between protagonists (like in Halo 2) would be interesting.
Also, I would love to see some more non linear levels. As said above, being able to choses different paths to your objective would be interesting and fun.
One path could require you to take a Hornet over a body of water (like in The Covenant), another could take you underground, and another could be a chase scene in a 'Hog. That's my two cents.

I completely agree.

Me too. I liked how the perspective always changed at a cliffhanger moment too. Halo 3 could have had a longer and more detailed Campaign if we were to play as the Arbiter and take the Elites in top secret missions and even rendezvous with the Chief and help him out occasionally (an example would be taking the Elites to deactivate Tower 2 in The Covenant befere meeting up with the Chief to help clear the bottom of Tower 3 and then helping in the Citadel).

I'm not really sure how Reach could pull off a multi perspective Campaign, unless we were to go the route of ODST and play as different squadmates (in this case Spartans) for different parts of the game.

I think...

Switching perspectives because it could make the campaign longer.

matclan, the best way i think they could swap round in reach is with the covenant and the spartans, maybe be as covenant in space, fighting the chief while trying to recover a data core from an orbital, or bordig and disabling a mac station, while on the groud you could be a spartan fighting to defend places on reach, or simply not die.

*edit* and yes, if they did a switch round campaign, they could make it longer. altho, a better way to do that would be, unluck a second full campaign by completing the first. on legendary obviously.

But they are telling the story of the spartans not the covenant think about it.
