Well, he was talking about the remake being both that and an expansion to Reach. I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be able to throw additional levels with the MC before he gets aboard the PoA. It doesn't have to start immediately after N6 dies or anything, just a short alternate view of what's happening at a particular moment or two. You could even play another spartan and switch to MC afterwards. Ok, if we forget Halo CE, I think our biggest chance to see a Reach expansion would be as an event DURING the game, but with other characters. Playing the MC on Reach would only makes sense to me. And throwing this with an Halo CE remake would be neat.
1. "I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be able to throw additional levels with the MC before he gets aboard the PoA. "
What is it going to be about? The Gamma space op? I doubt 343 would do that seeing how that deals with the actual story of reach and some people like to imagen the events rather than play them out. ( I am not one of those people). Even so that deals with reach, not Halo CE.
2. "You could even play another spartan and switch to MC afterwards."
And this deals with CE how?
"Playing the MC on Reach would only makes sense to me. And throwing this with an Halo CE remake would be neat"
It seems you just want a fun "remake" that wouldn't have anything to do with the game that was suppose to be re-made. I have no issues with a remake of halo CE if it is an Actual Remake, not a new Halo 1 with new additions that people want just for fun or just to want something and then say that is canon.
A "Remake" to me is updating graphics, and adding relevant content that was cut for time reasons. I wouldn't mind co-op online but i don't support online matchmaking, and only firefight if it is more updated and better than reach's addition.
That is a Remake to me, not slaping Halo CE on the cover and having it mostly or mainly deal with reach.
I think you're misunderstanding my post. First of all, I said that the non CE part would be short, a small tidbit, expansion thingy to showcase more of the battle of Reach and/or the MC, INCLUDED with the WHOLE Halo CE. So it wouldn't be "slapping Halo CE on the cover having it mostly or mainly deal with Reach", the contrary. It would be like the Halo books represses, fancy new cover and some additional writing thrown at the back of the whole thing. It would have everything to do with Halo CE if it consists of what happens to MC before he gets aboard the PoA, before the Halo game. It would both be some sort of an extension to MC's original adventure and a small prequel. Even if it doesn't deal with the MC at some point, so what? Would you really be pissed that you get more content? Who cares if it doesn't deal with the MC or directly with Halo CE, it's still new stuff that could be cool.
Plus, I'm only expressing my thoughts on what the OP said, I'm not throwing out suggestions, but what I think could happen based on what he said. In fact, pretty much everything you have against what I said were introduced by the OP, not me, quote him instead. Again, it's about a REACH expansion being both that and a real Halo CE remake, bridging Reach and CE in a different way. If you just want a Halo CE remake, you'd STILL get it. You know, you could always ignore Firefight or matchmaking, why wouldn't you ignore other content like this which you don't want? Hell, people even ignore the campaign.
Okay, now I never said I didn't want Halo not to be a real remake, but adding extra missions BEFORE the whole thing, well where's the harm? It would be the same thing as remaking the game with only graphical enhancements and throw in Halo 2 with it. The inclusion of Halo 2 does not make the Halo CE remake not a real remake, same thing for the additional missions.
If you don't want stuff from the books, that's your problem, 343 don't have to cater to your desires. Again, we're not suggesting anything, we're only speculating. Besides, content from the books have already been made. The gamma station and the spartan training ground were made, maybe there's people who are not satisfied or irritated by this. 343 didn't care and still made them, why wouldn't they make an expansion out of it? And again, we're talking about something that deals with both Halo Reach and CE, not CE solely.
