Subject: as epic as expected or a big dissapointment ?

as most people know reach was one of the first big battles between human and covenant races. but in halo campaigns everything happens rather slow, with like 20 enemies in one place and then a long stretch of land to walk up and then some more ........ i hope bungie really pulls out all the stocks like vulture air support, MAC artillary or even ODST bots to reinforce, i very much doubt the game will be like starwars battlefront series or left 4 dead because the characters will have an actual background except maybe in SWB. Halo Reach was seriously a huge battle with the entire planet being destroyed i hope bungie will represent this, very clear and just add a bit more enemies and more environment changes, E.G it wont hurt to add a random space ship crashing down since the UNSC lost over half thier fleet

Yes! Battles should be more epic than even halo 2 and 10X larger(maybe not that large but you get my point).

I would like there to be multiple battles going on. Say, a scarab battling two tanks in the distance while you are taking out an AA gun or something like that.

10000 grunts with plasma grenades and 100 with fuel rod guns that would be awesome

If MW2 can put over 40 guys running up a hill, Bungie SHOULD be able to handle more than the typical "1-2 Brutes/Elites and 3-6 grunts" per encounter.

Positive vibes.

I agree with everything you have said here. Also what comes to mind when you say this is the repetitive map use. They took a map from Halo 2 (Lockout), and added a few more features, and made it look better, changed the name, and brought it back in Halo 3. (Blackout) I think they should just create all new maps. No remakes.
