Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Hopefully it will feel more like Halo 1 than Halo 2 and Halo 3 (aka Halo 2.5). I would like the campaign to be squad based now, where you play as the 5 Spartans in the banner (S-259, -320, and some others?). This would make the game 5 player coop instead of 4, and the coop characters would finally have personalities. To make up for the extra help, simple add a ton more enemies into the game. Loose squad commands (4) should be available on the dpad.

Up - Move to where I'm aiming
Down - Regroun on me
Left - Assault/Stealth mode
Right - ??

Someone's been playing GRAW.
My edits to that would be.

Up - Move to target / interact with object (ex. turret or vehicle)
Right - Individual orders (select one squadmate and only order him/her)

He means he thinks it should be Halo 1.5, since you said it should be like Halo 1.

I'd personally like a Halo 2 Feel - that feeling that the war really is massive and you're just one small part of it. The environments in Halo 2 were good at achieving this IMO.

Hopefully it plays like Halo CE. With features from all three games and some new ones.

Halo CE:
-health system
-fall damage, only not so much
-player speed and movement
-Melee system with VERY slight lunge(this is a console game)
-jumping
-All Halo CE weapons, except the MA5B/M6D which would be replaced with a different MA5/M6 variant or the same only changed slightly and including the Fuel Rod Gun and Flamethrower from the PC version
-Warthog(all variants), Pelican, Scorpion, Ghost, Spirit, Banshee, Wraith(all variants)

Halo 2:
-Dual wielding, if done right
-Vehicle boarding with damage
-Mounted Turrets
-Carbine, BR, Beam Rilfe, Sword, SMG, Sentinel Beam(Mino/Major), Bruteshot, Brute Plasma Rifle
-Spectre, Shadow, Phantom, Scarab

Halo 3:
-Equipment, if done right
-Support Weapons
-Gravity Hammer, Spike Grenade, Mauler, Spartan Laser, Missile Pod
-Prowler, Brute Chopper, Mongoose, Hornet, Elephant

Completely different... I hope. There's no point in making it like the previous games, it will be the same experience, which isn't immersive, and isn't worth full price if nothing is changed.

i completely and utterly agree they should come from left field with this if they do do it in any way the same of the first three then they should combine all the games best attributes but then figure out a way to take it to the next level. if they do it too much like one of the first three then halo fans every where will get bored of it and not want to play it if they want to surpass the first three then they need to bring the big guns to the table and take everything they ve done n then take it to the next level

Ugh...

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

I'm hoping it will be unique. Halo: CE was the worse of the 3. Yes, I have played all 3.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Halo CE style, short jumps, fast movement. Good Assault Rifles and Plasma Weapons. Fantastic weapon balances (absence of BR forcing players to diversify, because the Magnum just wasn't THAT accurate at mid range).

I want elements from all 3 Halo games, but more influence from 1 than from 2 and 3 (which is just Halo 2.5)

I thought the exact same thing with Halo 3. Reason why is because there wasn't a drastic change with Halo 3 like there was with Halo 2. It would be good if it was unique though, because you know what it's like with games that try to be like a certain game in the past, but fail at it. I wouldn't want that to happen.

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

I wish it would feel like Halo CE, but Bungie is obsessing with balance, I think it will play like Halo 3, sadface. I somewhat dislike Halo 3's multiplayer for the balance.

I don't like the balance myself. Everything is just so weak. Weapons in Halo CE had a certain feel to them that just made you think "wow, this really is a weapon of the future". Halo 3's weapons are just so weak and have lost that feeling. They could just balance the weapons in multiplayer, and unleash their true power in campaign.

Let there be light, created from fire

I am all i am, i am a team player(when im not pissed), i make great strategies, i will punch you in the face after armor locking, you have to be at sniper distance to not get headshot by my DMR or pistol, wraiths beware, i am DxXOrangesXxD and i am ready to rumble!
