Subject: Halo Wars 2 and how it can help fix the gap between 2 and 3

Marine: "Got a new contact. Unknown Classification!"
Lord Hood: "If it isn't one of ours, take it out."
MC: "This is bus 117, can anyone hear me? Over."
Lord Hood: "Isolate that signal. Master Chief, you mind telling me you're doing at that school?"
MC: "Sir... picking up these kids."

Well the title practically exposes the point but let's give you something to read either way.

There is a gap between Halo 2 and 3 for Johnson, Keyes, and Thel. Master Chief's adventure home is told through the Uprising comics, and I feel the three deserve an adventure home story too, but rather than a book or comic why not use another Halo Wars to tell the tale?

Halo Wars RTS gameplay would bring so much poetintial given what's going on at the time. Here's what I see:

-Single Player allows you to build both Human and Sangheili uprising units.

-Co-op splits the two factions giving 2nd player control over Sangheili rebel units, while single player solely controls humans.

-Keyes, Thel, Rtas, and Johnson will be the heroes this time around, but that doesn't mean we can't throw in new faces. Maybe even the 3rd and 4th player Sangheili warriros from Halo 3? Shed some light on who they are.

-Revisit some of the levels on Delta Halo in RTS form.

-The Space trip home allows RTS management giving you control over bigger base units as well as the normal aerial units.

-The split at the time would allow 5 possible militias: Human, Sangheili rebels, Covenant loyalists, Flood, and Sentinels.

I don't know why we don't address the gap anymore, but it's a part of the tale and don't you think it deserves light? They could easily make a game off of this, and come on what Halo fan wouldn't buy it, what with the prestige of Halo 2?

(I appologize for this being poorly written, I'm tired. :/ )

Thoughts?

"And i will show you where the iron crosses grow..."

I wouldn't mind a Halo wars 2 the first one was amazing, however i wouldn't like it taking place in this this time frame.

8/5/08 Bungie Favorites- NoEnd
7/1/09 Bungie Favorites- RECON Devil
9/9/09 Bungie Favorites- Champion
5/22/10 HaloCharts Favs- Prey

That'd be a cool place to do a sequel. I'd like to find out what happens to the Spirit of Fire, but there is a lot of potential in this story.

No, ExcessiveFaun6 is not my real gamertag.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cortana: The message just repeats. "Regret, Regret, Regret."
Miranda: Any idea what it means?
Sgt. Johnson: Dear Humanity... we regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!
Marines: Hoo-rah!

I'm going to have to side with the rest... I wouldn't mind a second Halo Wars at all, but I'm not sure it'd be the best place for this type of backstory.

Halo Wars was terrible, but thats what happens when another game developer besides Bungie makes a Halo game. Although I have a lot of hope for 343.

  • 09.23.2011 12:11 PM PDT

Halo Wars 2 relevant to the first game: yes please
your idea: no thank you

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Halo Wars 2? Yes.
YOUR idea? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA -blam!- no.

  • 09.23.2011 4:42 PM PDT

They come now... and they take us... the tide rises.

Keyes is death, Johnson the same.
And you forgot Lord Terrence Hood >_>

I agree that halo wars is terrible and so is 343 because they made it and ruined the halo unviverse for all!!! Halo will die without bungie but it had to eventually, can't wait for the next game that will start small and create a huge god defying universe!

1. 343 didn't make Halo Wars.
2. Halo Wars wasn't terrible. But I guess I imagined all of it's great reviews and high sales and gamers saying it was how a console RTS should be.
3. Explain how it ruined the Halo universe.

Soon to be breaking news:


US Coast Guard prepares for massive rescue mission after Iranian fleet sinks off shore. Reports say a small thunderstorm caused most of the ships to simply...fall apart.

Alright, first:
343 didn't make Halo Wars. Ensemble Studios did.

Second:
How many RTS games have you played? I can understand if someone says Wars is a bad RTS if they're comparing it to something on the PC (Age of Empires, Starcraft, etc). It's the best RTS game I've played for consoles.

Edit: Wow. Are you me?

Gold Team+ODST+Sand Pirates= Fun

^ Finally, a voice of reason. Sorry I replied, my computer is effin' up and I cant post myself. Although I would love another Halo based RTS, Im afraid there is not enough story to tell between Halo 2 and 3 to make it into a full campaign mode. It wouldnt be great, but Im up for any Halo game. Halo Wars was great, minus MP rushing, so this sounds great.

Why not?

What's more to say but i live day by day. Never forgetting that my impact on the world isn't that important. Always waiting for the end of the day. Night is the most important. Welcome to my world you will find that the sun is unimportant.

Therer is no gap it starts right after 2 when cheif jumps off of the forrunner dreadnought.

There's a couple week gap between the games I think. A lot can happen in that amount of time.

That filled in the gaps between Halo: CE and Halo 2. We're talking about the gap between Halo 2 and Halo 3.

-Can't Wait For Bungie's Next Game_

It would be interesting. I would also like to see them make it on the PC if it is what they do

Why not? Because Halo Wars sucks, but if Bungie made it then I might have a second opinion but Bungie is not working on the Halo franchise anymore so I dont expect that to be happening any time soon

Explain what makes it so bad, otherwise you just come off as an ignorant Bungie fanboy.
