Well voice command would mean there has to be team commands.

Anyway, smarter ai. The Halo 3 ai, a halo ai in general, is great. But I do prefer better AI than squad commands. Heck, the fact that it seems like you'll be in a squad with this one means that the AI has to be improved, at least the friendly AI.

And if they do decide to do squad commands, it better not be like Vegas's. yea, that works for that game, but to me, a spartan wouldn't obey orders so directly. They won't hold position for no reason. They'd kick ass.

I dunno, but typically, I feel like a team of spartans should be a team of, essentially power rangers, not a squad. They wouldn't say "fall in" or "go there", they'd just blast through crap.

---> Each person from the team of spartans better feel like a unique personality. If they're all like Masterchief or just fail to capture a personality, it fails.

Smarter A.I.

By the way, your choices are terrible. I was hoping for something new and exciting. This thread fails.

Actually, the sprtan squad was much more tactical. There were much larger groups of enemies, and gunning and running was definitely not the way to defeat them. By the books, I see something like Rainbow 6 Vegas working very well.

team placement, it'll be like as squad of spartans and you can have them set up sniping positions and stuff like that

We have Evolved Combat
We have gone to War
We have Finished The Fight
We have Remembered Reach

HALO, the best thing created after the sliced bread.

Smarter AI

I'd more so imagine them pulling crazy moves off. They can move tatically, but they won't be realistically tatical, more of a ninja gaiden type movement. Leaping over stuff, charging, etc.

Remember-- the books can be overwritten and changed. Staten and Frankie both said that while the story from the books is to be taken as canon, those ones aren't set in stone and they can change the books if they desire. The example he gave was Johnson's immunity to flood.

Reach MMO. Here's to hoping.

And the people that believe "the hardcore playlists would be more popular if the rules were strictly MLG" can come off it, now. If you're not willing to support something close to your own setup, there's no reason for us to believe that cloning our own lists and stripping the variety down will attract more people. -- Shishka, Bungie.net

PvP campaign...see my other thread.

Smart A.I. FTW!

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Mine has two separate levels of zoom: 'Up-close-and-personal' and 'Hello-you're-dead'.

Smarter AI.
Because sometimes the enemy is so stupid!
