I've seen alot of threads about a possible 'halo 4' and although there are some reasons to it I don't think 343 industries will take the franchise in that direction, so here is my suggestion for the next stage in the Halo seris.
The basic premise would be simple, instead of a continuous campaign, each mission would be it's own story (kinda like Halo Legends.) This would make sense to me because there are alot of stories to be told in Halo that don't work in books or full campaigns. Also this would leave an endless supply of possible DLC's or sequels.
Another good argument is that each mission would be a different character so players could be saprtans, MC, Elites, ODSTs or anything else. Plus these missions could be wildly diversified to be sniper missions, driving/flying missions, or outright bloody combat.
However there are some storys that just wouldn't be good in a game, so it is also a possibility to add really good quality, (Halo Wars style) cut-scenes that have no accompanied gameplay. These short videos could also be unlocked through playing missions or unlocking achievments.
Ideas For Possible Missions
1.The flood invasion of High Charity.
2.Covenant or flood invasions of any major city (New alexandria or a city on Harvest for example)
3.How sgt. Johnson and his team escaped Halo.
4.Play as the OLD noble 6 on the mission he/she was killed (fighting innies.)
5.Play as a Jackle sniper in any scenario.
6.Play as an old arbitor during the grunt rebelion.
7.The flood invasion of Alpha Base on the first Halo.
8.Control the frigate during the iconic mission that Miranda Keyes was named a suicidal pilot.(A little far-fetched but...)
9.Any others you can think of.
Possible short film ideas.
1.A civilion making his/her way to an evacuation point during a covenant/flood invasion.
2.A short story on the Spartan II's training.
3.Either of the missions which wiped out the other spartan classes.
4.Sgt. Bucks escape from reach (also could be playable.)
5.The back story to how Truth,Mercy, and Regret came to be prophets (i know it's in the books but still...)
6.A story during the Forerunner-flood war (I understand the contrivoursy in showing forerunners but it could be done.)
7.Any other you can think of.
Please comment and leave suggestions, thanks for reading :)
*note: Although I suggested 6 short films that does not mean i am proposing they make six, it's mearly the number of topics I could think of.
