i would like to play as a covenant grunt. love those guys

Signatures are for squares.

Actually a side story following Silvas ODST's would be phenomenal. I'd love to see that in the game, I feel like it'd be a great change of pace, and that Marine side story was the best part of The Flood.

Also, if they DO add any new weapons, I'd prefer it to be stuff like the Carbine, SMG, Beam Rifle, and that's it. No Spartan Laser, no Plasma Launcher.

Perhaps they can add in Engineers on the Truth and Reconciliation? They were supposed to be there originally, and it'd fit with the canon since they were there in the novels. But no Brutes, and no Drones. Brutes weren't part of Thel's fleet, and Thel wouldn't have drones if he had Engineers.

No new games, catching up with the world, and filling it with the name of SpazDragon, the dragon with a spas-12.

One thing I might ask though is, why didn't the Covenant call in support from the other fleets?

I understand that brutes and Elites hate each other, but does that not mean extra help could have been called in for the Covenant?

"An organic life contact-purpose humanoid interface created by the Data Interface Thought Entity which supervises this galaxy, that would be me."

I'm Chinese, but I'm not born in China, I'm Singaporean. Which would explain my relative fluency in both English and Mandarin.

That'll be awesome. It could be Halo 2 Arbiter-style, or a separate campaign altogether, perhaps unlocked after completing the Chief campaign first?

I don't see how they'll be able to make it very good with a third the development time of a Bungie-made Halo game, though. Surprise me, 343 Industries.

Dark Neptune, a young amateur astronomer whose gaming life is no different from other teenagers of his age, though he controls it more strictly then others.

Read one of the Adjunct stories from the newly-revised 2010 novel version of "Halo: The Flood". It says it all. The Fleet Master at that time (before he became the H2 and H3 Arbiter) was locked in a dilenma as they predicted TPOA was about to enter in the system where Threshold and Alpha Halo were based in.

We don't know, the remake could have been in development for over a year already. Besides; they have a game to remake, not one to make from the ground up.

As for the Silva campaign (believe that came from my previous post on the last page, in which I also stupidly said there were no ODST's on Halo...) I would say make it a separate mini campaign, about half the length of the real campaign and having us to unlock it by beating the game on Legendary.

Add to that, I truely believe Zazamee and Yayap should be more visible in the campaign. Maybe Cortana at some point noticing how they encounter the same Elite over and over again.

I just want to see master cheifs face! you know how legit that would be!?

Silence fills the empty grave, now that I have gone
But my mind is not at rest, for questions linger on

Some kind of Covenant sidestory. Remember that the discovery of the Halo ring was kind of a huge deal for them.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or later, the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

Nothing changed. Pixel perfect remake in HD, down to the last snow flake. I swear, 343 will have to stick to the original formula, or receive hate. Sorry guys, but this isn't something fir you to change in order to "make your mark." Sure, add customs, matchmaking, Forge, whatever - but LEAVE THE GODDAMN CAMPAIGN ALONE. Because if they change it, they will screw it up.

  • 02.07.2011 8:16 AM PDT

I think they should leave campaign totally alone accept for graphics redo and possibly vehicle physics. Multiplayer will obviously keep all the original maps including those on pc, maybe even include some created with custom edition.

unfortunately I don't think the original weapons in Multiplayer will be enough for a modern FPS. The following are the original weapons (brackets=PC version):
pistol, AR, shotgun, rockets, sniper, plasma pistol, plasma rifle, needler, (fuel rod), (flamethrower)
I suggest we add BR, laser, brute shot and possible some sort of tracking explosive (missile pod?). Discuss carbine aswell. sword is already in CE just not usable by humans so lets make it usable. Turrets may be useful aswell but this raises the issue if they are portable and if they are does the flamethrower come under this catergory like in halo 3 or is it a normal weapon like in halo PC? What could also work is the SMG from halo 3 ODST...discuss.

The original vehicles in MM are warthog, (rocket hog), ghost, (banshee) and Tank. I think we should add wraith, gauss hog, mongoose, hornet and maybe falcon. discuss sceptre aswell.

I personally don't want amour abilities. If equipment like in Halo 3 can be successfully integrated then I wouldn't mind that, otherwise I also don't mind. please discuss armour abilities and equipment though.

I think 343 could make some new maps aswell but here's what I suggest. They can make a huge forgable map with different land scapes and many items of different design e.g. forerunner ruin, forerunner structure, human, covenant, natural. within that 343 can make a few of their own forged maps that count as the new ones.

Now for the ranking system. I suggest something similar to Halo 3 where you have Highest skill and EXP, accept there are some significant changes. Firstly true skill is calculate not only from wins and loses but also from how you played in game, that way if your team looses but you played well you don't go down (might even go up) and it also prevents boosting. Obviously wining will play a large factor since that is primarily why we play. EXP will not be like in Halo 3 but more like cR from Halo Reach. You will earn it the same way at the end of every game but probably not from campaign, only multiplayer. The ranks require true skill like in Halo 3 and cR...but with a slight twist. you need true skill between 1-50 for ranks up to general. After that you only go up in rank by earning cR. The ranks after general will go up to Inheritor (like in Reach) or something similar. you have to have a 50 to get to those ranks though. This is a good system in my opinion because it harnesses skill like it did in halo 3 but also means people will still have ranks to acquire even after reaching general.

The playlists will be ranked and social. Ranked will include:
lone wolves
team doubles
team slayer
squad battle
team swat
team objective
MLG
Team snipers (maybe)
social playlists:

same as above (not ranked though and called something different)
multiteam
living dead(maybe)

Obviously these are just what I suggest and 343 can do what they think best. maybe some sort of double EXP weekend can be remade. discuss.

I would prefer not to have Firefight but that's my opinion so please discuss this. Forge I mentioned before. Theatre should be include and it should be able to take more than 1 person in the party. Armour can be unlocked similar to Halo Reach. scoring can be activated for campaign.

A few more things are if we can put skulls/data pads in the campaign. I know I said keep everything the same but this is hardly anything since it will be hidden and you won't see it unless your looking for it. it could include an interesting side story...maybe something to do with De Sylva,McKay and the rest of the ODSTs from Halo: The Flood. discuss.

I think I have covered everything. Please discuss what you think and mention what changes you would like and why. It would be really interesting to see what others think.

Thanks

Keep everything that was in the original game but add new bits to each level like CMT did. In fact I would prefer the CMT campign just more polished.

  • 02.07.2011 10:54 AM PDT

It needs floodfight. -blam!- Zombies on Halo. (i.e. -blam!- zombies with more variety, a decent number of maps, cooler guns and more awesome sauce)

  • 02.07.2011 10:58 AM PDT

I r guy who gun to teach u lesson

NO NO NO i DONT want anopther halo because people from ps3 will be able to play it they don't deserve the awsome feeling of halo CE ahhh the memories of playing my older brothers halo CE :D

  • 02.07.2011 11:10 AM PDT

I r guy who gun to teach u lesson

this would be the most epic thing ever though, just imagine seeing this game with great graphics... i don't think i would change anything

  • 02.07.2011 11:12 AM PDT

All I want is updated graphics, maybe sound, online co-op, and maybe online custom games if it has Forge. I do not want it to have matchmaking however. Reach came out less than a year ago, we don't need the community split even more between the two games.

  • 02.07.2011 11:17 AM PDT

I agree there's already enough split mutiplayer in halo

  • 02.07.2011 11:31 AM PDT

JD

yes flood fight would be great but you need loads of players for it like 20 and when you are killed by them you join them.
there should be bots as your allies as well

  • 02.07.2011 11:40 AM PDT

meh...

On-Topic: I would like for it to have the more fleshed-out Covenant. Drones, Brutes, newer weapons and vehicles. Same goes for the UNSC Marine forces.


yes. more content, no DMR, maybe BR, more vehicles.

HUGE MULTIPLAYER!. push the 360 to its limits!


  • 02.07.2011 11:42 AM PDT

no, i do not want this to be like halo 3 in any way. the only game it should come close to in similarities is the original. i want them to try new things, not bring back all the stuff we've debated about for years.

  • 02.07.2011 12:00 PM PDT

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Marines worth keeping around
Flood mode for Firefight
Optional friendly AI in FF (if playing alone)
The original 60-round Assault Rifle
And of course the greatest line in video game history, "This cave in not a natural formation".

Don't change anything in the base game (Damage, Movement, Weaponry, Controls)

Add in Cut Content- Anything that was bad ass from the content that was cut (Blind Wolves, Machete, Shields)

Firefight- More control, probably Flood Mode, maybe play as something other than Elite/Human (Monitor w/Monitor Beam would be cool)

Covenant Campaign- Come on, I want a Covenant Campaign already!

That is all I can think of for now.

I wonder how Bungie feel about this? I can't help but feel that its unnecessary and that the remake will upset a lot of fans.
