Anyone else want a Covenant campaign? If so, what species do you want to play as? Elites, Brutes, Hunters, Jackals, or even Grunts? And what story would you want? Another Arbiter style story or maybe life as a lowly Grunt?

Fear my Pink Mist...

Yea, that would be purty awesome.

Seperate story of an Elite (not Arbiter). Not how Halo 2 switched off roles every other mission.

What I mean is an option on the Campaign waiting lobby to choose to play Covenant Campaign and also to play UNSC Campaign.

That would be kewl.

A Covenent Campaign would be good, but we need to keep the UNSC so hav both. And I was thinking playing as a elite would be cool.

2 separate campaigns would be tight

SOOoooOOOOooOO tight my man, that would be epic

BYAHH

It would be cool if you were fighting marines for a change... I mean if the marines threw grenades that kill you (like they often do) you could switch to covenant and teabag them for it.

I will take as much content as I can get. :-)

As long as it does not seriously detract from the quality of the other content.

  • 10.06.2009 5:43 AM PDT

You just got Shakespeared!

I think it would be awesome to have a separate campaign but not like H2. I have been wanting one and was hoping for one in halo 3 or Halo wars.

Go back to being a failure kid.

Play as the Shipmaster!

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

So, I got sick of playing as the Arbiter on Halo 2, in fact I found myself rushing through his missions just so I could play as the Chief. I'd rather they focus on a really good UNSC campaign then have a Covenant.

also, playing as a grunt would fail. Notice how in ODST 1 headshot kills...yeah. Legendary would suck.

"You must be mistaken, Reclaimer. I've met your makers, and they don't even know your name..."

But it's the fall of Reach, to the Covenant. I'd rather see us on a good comp stomp across the UNSC then play as the Chief. Picture this at the end of every single level:

"Good work, Chief! But everyone else failed, so fall back before you get glassed! Your next mission is to go back and do everything right!"

Yeah. It's kinda like that -__-

Don't get mad if i just owned u because im better than u will ever be so if u want to invite me to some custom game match where u get some of ur friends to help u just know that i will -blam!- all of u.

yeah i agree two different sides of the story so u can see the story from both sides and it will help u understand it mopre clearly and it would be awesome too.

Beat the UNSC campaign and unlock the Covenant campaign.

How about a playable grunt character called Popo... You see, you'll have an interface like the Halo 3 shield system were if you lose your "braveness" the game takes control of the player and you run away, often resulting in death.

Maybe Popo could be a spec-ops grunt though, with healing powers and always begins campaign missions with a gravity hammer as a starting weapon.

As the story unfolds the player will learn more of Popo's background. It will soon become clear that Popo is part of a massive cover-up conspiracy in the covenant. The plan being to replace the Elites with the Grunts, taking the role "Protectors of the Prophets". But in the end Tartarus finds Popo's journal and decides to use the plan himself.

Popo also has bone-itus.

Most kills in the world with the Storm rifle in halo 4, the Plasma Repeater in halo reach, and the Plasma rifle in halo 3.

that would be cool to be able to kill marines without it counting as a betrayal

In all seriousness though, I think it would be cool if they introduced a covenant campaign unlockable by completing the UNSC campaign.

But here's my 3 pence... What if the last mission in the covenant campaign started you (the main playable Elite character) boarding the pillar of autumn after the covenant chased it to Installation 04. After you and your boarding paty of Spec-ops Elites infliltrates the bridge and captures Captain Keyes in the final cutscene you see (in the distance) the Master Cheif boarding the last life-pod. At which point your character says "Who was that?" and the Elite holding Captain Keyes replies "Who cares? We have their leader! The Shipmaster will be pleased... Wort wort lol" (The shipmaster being the future "Arbiter".

I think this would be an awsome Tie in.

like in some games there could be a extra level unlocked when you beat bolth campaigns one that shows the perspective of bolth the unsc and the covenant about the same last battle

  • 10.06.2009 9:32 AM PDT

Is this a legitimate question? Do you people forget a little game called Halo 2 came out around 5 years ago? In case you forgot, Bungie added covenant levels to the campaign and it was pretty unanimous amongst fans that these parts were some of the worst in the game?!

And why would you want a covenant campaign when the Fall of Reach is a very human and spartan focused story? A covenant campaign would be completely out of context.

I pray to god that Bungie doesn't listen to the community. It'll be the downfall of the franchise

The flood weren't at the battle of Reach, humans don't meet them until they get to halo in Halo CE.

I'm just a guy like you that plays halo.

But if you were covenant what would be your challenge, marines? Pathetic maries or an ODST or 2? Yawn.
