Subject: Halo Wars 2?

Hi everyone. Wats good in the world. Relating to xbox live, I do not accept friend requests from people I have not met in person. Just the way it is. I do not join clans but I do like to play with commited groups all the time. Relating to halo, one of the greatest franchises ever. Good luck in the future. One complaint though. PEOPLE PLEASE STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT BLOOM!

Will there be a halo wars 2 anyone. I really liked the first one but i understand the group who made it broke up. Just trying to see if anyones heard anything.

343i said they won't be making any more side stories like ODST or Halo Wars for the time being. I guessing thats until after the new trilogy?

God I hope not.There won't be one made by 343i in the next 10ish years anyway, they're focusing on their trilogy.

This is a RETICULE, and that is a RETICLE. I'm using the latter to aim. And what are you using?

I actually think it's a bit sad that 343i/MS will focus solely on FPS games. Experiencing the Halo universe in another type of game can be fun, which is the reason why I like Halo Wars.

I agree I hope they branch it out even more than they already have. It is such a deep and cool story

They have big plans for the next trilogy, and the novels that will flesh out the events around it. After that story arc I'm sure they'll branch Halo into new territory. I'm betting an MMO, or something similar, that would demand a great deal of attention. Sharing the trilogy with another major Halo project would most likely equal results not as good if they were developed with 343s full attention.

I'd rather halo wars 2 then a complete focus on Master Chief for future halos...

Agreed, plus HW is the best RTS I've eperienced on a console, tidy and not too cluttered control techniques which very much suited playing with a controller rather than a mouse/keyboard.

Ensemble did a great and underrated job on HW and I'd love a sequel.

Because we all know you hate Master Chief. The hero...of the entire...Halo series. No big deal, who's he again?

I don't think that they should do what Bungie did and leave MC for two games (I think that one of Bungie's mistakes was leaving their last game without MC) but I think at least a side story after Halo 5 and perhaps another after Halo 6 would be well received.

Judging how MC is already typecasted as the 'face of halo' then leaving him out of a game for too long would be unwise, but it doesn't mean 343i can't do something cool with the Halo Universe, there's still at least 10 games out there that could easily be made.

If the rumour about the 'AIM' system has any ground at all, then I think Halo 4 could be back onto the right track. Personally i have high hopes for the next Halos, they seem to be breaking new ground in FPS titles all the time.

  • 07.23.2011 10:45 AM PDT

I think the trilogy will see many strong characters being brought into the limelight. Master Chief may be the 'face of Halo', but if 343 does introduce a variety of compelling characters (which I'm very confident they will) then people will have a lot more to talk about than the 'Chief.

I suppose so, but the characters should not be human or any Covenant race. (How did they get there?) Whether the characters are forerunner, however (eg like the Didact or Bornstellar) would be cool, but I don't think a deep main character that is of a completely new race would be a good idea.

Don't forget, MC is in a completely isolated piece of space, and the only tech is what looks like forerunner, so the 'new character' would pretty much have to be forerunner, imo.

  • 07.23.2011 11:08 AM PDT

I'm thinking we'll see Forerunner, Spartans and possibly humans and Elites. The Spartans (blue team), Humans, and Elites, entering the conflict via events depicted in the Glasslands trilogy. A badass Promethean would be cool. Outside of those possibilities I have no idea, but 343 will advance the storytelling and we'll see a lot of interesting characters throughout the trilogy. It's gonna be a proper sci-fi adventure, it is.

Don't hate Chief, and he's the hero of the trilogy, not the entire halo universe.

It'll stagnate if all they do is chief this and chief that.

It's like Star Wars being 100% about Luke Skywalker.

I don't think the UNSC as a whole should be there. The UNSC would have had no chance of finding Cortana's beacon (unless 4 is set waaaaaay after 3) and don't have the propulsion technology to get there. The Covenant have better, so Elites could be a possibility, but I don't think that would be a good choice, at least for Halo 4.

Can't comment on blue team, need to refresh myself on that. I think a rebellious Forerunner like Bornstellar would be the best bet. I haven't finished Cryptum yet and I can't wait to read Glasslands.

343 will do well in this, I think.

In a sense, he is because he saved humanity from the Flood and the Covenant, sooo...

In the Halo Evolutions story, 'The Return', an Elite shipmaster came across documents regarding Forerunner artifacts at a UNSC camp. It concluded with said Elite keeping one human alive, and plotting to use him to find the artifacts. The Elite was very adamant that he would speak with his 'gods', in person. I'm guessing this will spawn a chain of events leading to a group of Elites, and humans (or at least the one marine), appearing in Halo 5, or 6. Maybe they discover some portal or whatever. Maybe they encounter Blue Team along the way, or something else happens with them.

I agree, the RTS angle was an awesome way to experience the huge scale of some of the Halo Battles. I'd like to see an RPG somehow, even maybe an FPS RPG like Boarderlands.

  • 07.23.2011 12:11 PM PDT

I hope that 343i will reunite the 'chief and Arbiter. If this new evil that will be the main antagonist of the next trilogy is as bad as we expect it to be then i don't think its to farfetched of an assumption to think that its going to take more than just the Chief to defeat it. I think we should expect to see a vast pooling of both Covenant, Human, and whatever else we may come to find to defeat this evil. Opinion of course... But yes i would love to see a halo wars 2. i never got the chance to play the first one so...

I think it was Frankie who said they had considered a Halo Wars 2 but at the moment they were not working on it

I would actually prefer Halo 4 and 5 to come out and then a short filler game like ODST that builds upon the story. Builds up tension for 6 and adds more story to the trilogy.

thats exactly what i was thinking.

if it were up to me the release of games would go like this.
Halo 5- 2015
Halo wars 2-2017
Halo 6- 2020

with maybe one or two small side story games in there.
