That is exactly what I mean.

Switch from Spartans to Marines or ODST's. Maybe even play as Keyes durring his "Loop".

If you want to see the MC die, play Legendary. If you want to see MC finish the fight, play Halo 3. If you want to see MC finish the fight by dieing, why did you waste six years when you could have done it yourself right now?

Isn't it obvious that the game is GOING to have some sort of forerunner landscape exploration? It's called Halo, not Marines getting pwnt taking their last stand. I mean cmon. All over on this forum people thought Halo 2 was going to take place entirely on Earth. And then Halo 3. And now you think it's going to take place entirely on Reach? I'm noticing a pattern here.

Also, there will probably be flood, unfortunately.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Quality first. Then quantity.

well we are not really sure if this will be about the battle of reach or what but it will hopefully be as long as halo 2 was, I hope we switch from humans to elites like in halo 2 also.


if u think about it, h2 was as long as h1 and h3 if u play just as the mc.

The main battle of Reach wasn't the only fighting that took place. The covenant didn't glass the entire planet so Spartans and groups of marines kept up the resistance even after the orbital defenses fell.

The battle of Reach will most likely be split up into a bunch of different missions since so much happened in that one day.

Blackness Confirmed. You've got soul.


The Ultimate Opinion.

1. No, because elites are the bad guys again,

2. Playing as an elite in halo 2 bombed. bad.

I am against the idea of split campaign with Elites, I have to do this.

1.So?

2. Opinion, I really enjoyed the last 2 levels in arbiters campaign.

  • 08.05.2009 7:21 PM PDT

It would be awesome if theres like 2-3 differend campaigns.
1. Trough the eyes of an Spartan
2. Trough the eyes of an Elite
3. Trough the eyes of an ODST/ Marine

It could be taking place with the most important events of Master Chief's life, the training missions he went through could be the tutorials, then you'd have missions like fighting the Rebels, his first battle with the Covenant when they lost Sam, and all the other important battles from The Fall of Reach.

We could always be exploring the parts of the buried Forerunner structure not explored by Halsey and her Spartans... in GoO she notes that they only saw a small portion of it.

So, we all know that Bungie has been working on Reach for about 2 years. But how is this possible?

The battle of Reach was not even a day. So how will the campaign be long as hell?

I am starting to feel like there will be multiple campaign missions. Like in Halo 2 where you play as MC and the Arbiter.

Possibly space battles, marines/ODST's you know?

Thoughts?


Interesting topic. I never really thought of how the short the game might be. Now that you mention it, they probably will let you play as both sides, and there will be a combination of ground and space battles. So that should add some longevity to the game...but I still don't think it's enough.

I'm hoping Reach is a bit of an improvement on H3's campaign, I remember CoD4's campaign slaughtered it. Good thing the multiplayer rocks :D


am i the only one that things that cod 4 campaign sucked

That would certainly be interesting; to play from the POV of both sides of the same war.

Well, in Halo 2 You DID play as the Arbiter, but you never got to kill humans.

I think it'd be interesting to play as some sort of Spec Ops Elite and always have the underlying fear of running into a squad of Spartans.

This. Half Jaw was so cool in H2, though we can't have elites killing humans now can we :(

ugh I hated CoD4's campaign, such terrible AI and the enemies just spawn over and over and the story is basically chase the nuke.

That's the flawed impression a lot of people here seem to think. We only saw the Reach battle on the ground from one perspective in a book. That's why this game exists. Its to expand the battle from different perspectives.

  • 08.06.2009 5:43 AM PDT

In Halo: First Stike, the Spartans remember missions they did before they had their armour. So maybe you play through the past missions, like a practice battle with Tango Company, Infliltrating a rebel base, etc.

My guess is that it will start a bit before Reach in other battles along the war. Take Halo 2 for example: we didn't land on Delta Halo until the sixth level of the game, and we even left it to fight somewhere else shortly after!

I think Reach will be similar to that.

Exactly what I was thinking.

There hasn't been one 'Halo' title that hasn't had the Flood introduced at one point. It is a large part of the series.

So in other words, you think it would be okay for bungie/ensemble/343 to spit out 20 Halo games in 3 years, and the games would have all the generic shooter stuff and a poor story?

GRAVITY CAT NOT AMUSED
Process initiated : Attempting to give a damn

Process stopping : Unable to give a damn, stopping

Process failed : Damn not given

I think the game starts when the Spartans get their Mark IV armor, Dr. Halsey made Chief do some visual tests with the armor before everyone else.

  • 08.06.2009 6:43 AM PDT

I hate to have to be the one to say it, but I am predicting some Reach battle rewriting that is going to override the books, just saying its possible and would allow them to craft it into what they want it to be. And I think I would be ok with it, as long as it made sense and was good

  • 08.06.2009 6:44 AM PDT

And my army of brothers went over the hilltops, drenched in blood we may be.... but fighting is all left to me....together with my army of brothers...down we fall....darkness in all..through hell...

The show 24 is only one day yet I spent weeks watching all the episodes.
