You're missing the point. He's not saying put new graphics into Halo 3 and call it Halo 4, he's saying don't reinvent the game. Like, we don't need pelican support after 7 kills, like so many people are suggesting.
And if you really think Halo 3 is just Halo 2.5, you clearly never played Halo 2 on Xbox Live during its prime yearsI think you too are missing the point. He's referring to gameplay. Halo 2 and 3 were nearly identical save for a few new weapons and equipment. Obviously pelican support would be stupid, and stealing a mechanic from another game. Although who's to say bungie doesn't want to go into another direction with the Halo games. Bring in the true bar for next gen gameplay. I assure you, if there isn't anything new in future Halo games people will stop buying them. They want something new when they buy a game. Not the same old same old they saw in the previous games. Whether that's something as big as a gameplay overhaul or a simply a new feature. Just because you guys are "long time fans" doesn't mean we have to think exactly the way you do. (Authors note: I've been playing since Halo CE so don't pull that one)
If you put it in that perspective than they can't make Halo class based, because that's the same old with new generation games. You say you want something different? Play one of those games and don't make Halo the same as them. You want a different game, well Halo IS different, and it doesn't need to conform to the failness of new 'next gen' games, where every game is the same WWII setting, with the same weapons, same kind of class systems, etc. Some people play Halo because it's different from those games. I, and apparently a whole lot of other people, like the current Halo experience and would rather Bungie keep building on it the way they have in the past rather than try and make it more like other franchise games that it's not. I agree with the original post 100% and wouldn't have Halo going in any different direction, or played any other way than it is now (With the few obvious exceptions that they'll fix some things, add some new stuff, take out the bad, and revamp the series into a whole new, different yet STILL the Halo we know, experience.)
