Seriously, does no one care about having a great campaign experience anymore? Most of the ideas here are just for multiplayer, why don't we come up with some ideas for campaign for a change? I'll start it off.
- Cutscene like events through the eyes of the main character, like in ODST.
- More animations for things like boarding, switching weapons and idle animations.
- Better driving and tactical AI for both sides.
- Tons of weapons and vehicles from the Halo Universe.
- Longer Campaign with at least 15 + levels (NO chapters like Outskirts and Metropolis, The Storm and Floodgate)
- More ambient sounds with less soundtrack to cover them up.
- No equipment, keep VISR (feels like more of a new feature than equipment does), instead make some of the existing equipment into grenades, such as the Power Drain, Radar Jammer and Flare.
Now... how about the rest of the community's ideas to make this campaign be better than even the campaign of Halo CE?
I like some of the ideas, I could see small cutscenes through the eyes of the protaganist, but think about the scope of halo cinematics in the past, most of the videos aren't about the chief at all, they serve to update you on those involved that you aren't in contact with, to tie the story together
new animations would be cool, providing they don't take too much time, as they could have adverse effects on multiplayer if they are too lengthy
and Marty O'Donnell's music is if not the best, nearly the best thing about halo, it's amazing, I know that he doesn't like to have droning soundtracks throughout, he uses music to punctuate and highten the emotional content at the right times, halo's focus on the use of music is the best executed part of the game, and I don't want less of that
more weapons would be cool, even if they are campaign only, I would like to see something like an MA3 or other weapons from the books or different permutations of weapons for mission specific needs, like a silencer for certain missions, also some of the vehicles from halo wars, like a grizzly, once again, even if that is campaign only
I don't like the idea of combining equipment and grenades, it would be more to cycle through, the current system works great
Visr might be a nice addition, though I don't think spartan armor has VISR, so...
and obviously i want the same things most halo fans want, improved AI and a longer campaign
