Yeah. I'd like these:
Somehow, I don't get the satisfaction of driving a Warthog in Halo 2... It seems a little too fragile. It just appears mentally, to be made of plastic. The Halo 1 hog was strong, and there was just this feeling of thrill when you bounce over the dunes in Blood Gulch. You've got your Turret-man hanging out the back, cutting down some lone straggler, unloading 50 rounds, then spraying the area. You swerve to the left, and hit a rock. Two sniper rounds fly over the Warthog. You jam on the the accelerator, and the 'Hog's wheels slide for two seconds, and then you're off again. Shotgun times his jump, and perfectly lands inside the base door, mowing down a camper with his shotgun, then fragging the next. Meanwhile, you circles around the base running down late defenders. Then the blue flag streams outside, and you pull up, idle for a split second, the passenger jumps on, and then you're off again. The fragmentation grenade dust brushes against the Warthog's windshield. A sniper rifle round cuts through the air and cleanly exits through the Turret-man's shiny visor in a spray of blood. A few more bumps and swerves, but then out of no-where, a rocket flies out and totals the vehicle. You both go flying, but don't die. Your shields flicker, but there's no time to flip the hog. You both jump to it on foot. The enemy runs forward, Assault Rifles blaring. You frag two, but get instantly slain by the second rocket. The lone flag carrier doesn't make it. Cut down by a hail of bullets. You respawn and begin the vicious cycle all over again.
A solid machine gun. The SMGs don't supply a feel of security. I keep thinking it's gonna have a weapon jam for some reason.
Pretty much the same firefights of Halo 1. Those were good times.
More of the hand-to-hand option. The Spartans always practiced sparring. Why don't we get to exercise that?
How about some more Spartan support. When you play as the Arbiter, all the other Elites are basically just as strong as you. Why does the Master Chief have to suffer with weaker marines? (Actually, they are pretty strong, but they aren't the MC's equivalent) We never got to see Fred, Linda, Will.... From the First Strike!
Some actual cityscape to fight on.
Maybe some Zero-gee firefights... And the Master Chief has a rocket pack... Lol, no. Just kidding. But that would be pretty screwed up for Multiplayer.
A whole new musical score ^^ Go Marty.
I think those are the main keypoints... (And a combat knife please)
