I'm gonna condense this question down to two possible answers, to get a clear view on your opinions. Which system do you like best? The health system with a shield and then the health bars(the original Halo version), or the system with a shield, and after it is depleted, a few shots more and you're dead(the E3 2004 system)? Remember, the new system isn't set in concrete, so who knows what it'll be in the final version of the game, but I just wanted to figure out what other people like best.

How do you know there won't be any health in the second one? I saw a screen shot of the H2 and the only thing different as far as the HUD health was the health bars looked different.

I don't get it...do you not die after your shield is depleted and you're shot a couple times on the first halo? I'm not sure I see a difference here...maybe you could help me out...

I enjoy the old one better, but I can see a way the new will work. Make the shields a tad bit stronger and keep the Chief at about the same health level. Only difference is that last little bit at the end of the shield bar (you know that diamond/ square thingy that has no real significance) have it start at blue and change colors as the damage increases/decreases. That way there is no bars determining health, just color and shield bar.

The original is, in my opinion, better because you can see exactly how much health you have so you can take more precautions before running into another battle. On another note, will there be health packs in Halo2? If this has been answered already, sorry, im a noob and im to lazy to check the rest of the forum.
