NOW i know this is somewhat long but please read you might enjoy !

i know these idea probably wont happen but there small little details. Im not askingf or like 15 new guns or new vehicles or changes in the multiplayer.

everything youre about to read is somewhat astetic design only. They have nothing really to do with the main character.

1. something like a survival rate. Say a marines get shot he has a 5-10% chance of being incapacitated but still alive. So you see another marine run to his body pick him up throw him over his shoulder and carry him to the back of the battle where a medic could be waiting. Just think it woul be cool to see the marines helping eachother out. while hes caryying him you hear them talking like "what hit me ?" stuff like that.

2.Maybe see the grunts beg. Say all the eliets jackals what not are dead in the area. only like 2 grunts are left and their surrounded. i think it would be pretty funny for a grunt to walk up to you go on his knees and beg. "please dont kill me, me love you long time"

3. Maybe some more motion. Like a plasma goes off beside a bunch of marines but just far enough to not kill them. The marine could be knocked onto all fours and you see him swaying as he slowly starts to stand back up while hes cursing. Maybe for like 2 min or so that marine could walk with a limp. or he has a slight sway to his walk lik hes dizzy.

4. If a marine is dead i think it would be neat for marines to gather around his body and just stare and talk about him a bit. This wont happen a lot but from time to time.

5. Would be nice to see some decon grunts. If you dont know what they are read the books. While in battle you hear the Deacon speaking helping to boost moral of the troops.

6. This is probably my lamest idea but i would like to see some wild life. Say youre fighting the covenant and all you see is a wild boar impale one of youre own men from behind.

7. Some control over marines. Not alot but just enough so i can tell them not to talk infront of the 3 grunts with fuel rod cannons. Im tired of my marines just doing kamikazie rushes.

8. If reach is free roam like ODST then it would be cool if you can find battles. What im trying to say is remember youre on a planet filled with millions of humans and covenant a like. So it would be nice to see other battles that youre not involved in. Say youre just exploring the map and you hear faint gunfire. You follow the sound and find a battle raging between like 40 marines and 60 covenant. You could choose to help or sit back and watch.

9. Radio option ? This is relative to #8 say you can turn on a radio. You could start hearing transmissions from other marine squads within 3 km radius. So if you have a map like in ODST and you hear a marine squad call for a bomb drop from a long sword if you can get to the area on time you can see the long sword fly over your head and drop his load. maybe a 25% chance it gets shot down by Covenant cruiser. Which could lead to a rescue. if the pilot survives and he transmitts it on the radio you could go save him if you wanted.


Now i know most of these things are probably not gonna happen or the 360 cant handle it but its just my ideas.


Please leave comments but dont flame me. But i would like some critisicm.

I liked most of what I read. the boar thing is a bit far fetched and would be better if they impaled an elite.

Its not that far fetched. Remember its a war. God things cant only happen to the UNSC otherwise thats would be biased and racist to the Covenan. They deserve love to :(


Keep posting ppl dont let my thread die. It has feeling to lol.
