Here's what I want. No. Need. If I don't get it, my life won't be complete.
I want, in multiplayer, or anything like that, I don't want any of this -blam!- red do -blam!- on your target. What it should be, is, you can see them, but not their name above their head, it should sort of, aquire the target, before you get the red dot. This would bring a new aspect to the game. Steath. If you were having a breather before your armour cooled down after combat, you could hide in the shadows. Then someone would come running down the hallway, and they wouldn't be able to tell you were there because they didn't have a huge red dot to point them to you. They actually need to think your there, and have a look before they can see you.
Secondly. I want realistic weapon damage. If you cut a grunt open with a plasma lung, he's not going to fall over backwards, he's gonna open up like a heart surgery patient. If you shoot someone, you should see their shields fade, then their armour get holes an it, it could come off, or blood could ooze out the holes. Headshot, should be just that, their helmet cracks open revealing blood spatters inside it, or a crisp bullet mark through the helmet where they were shot.
Thirdly, you should be able to order round the marines, because your bloody higher rank than them!
You should be able to fight along side the other remaining Spartans, because they are the only ones who can brave this sort of situation. You should be able to use the Assault rifle, because weapons don't just up and dissappear. If I shoot a Warthog right through the tire, its not gonna keep driving dead straight is it? If I chuck a grenade careful enough it should be able to get lodged in the cab and blow those enemy's upper halves off.
If I blast someone apart with a clip on my Assault rifle, I want chunks of flesh to come out of him! I want to be able to shoot rounds into my dead opponents until their brains flow onto the ground.
You should be able to trade from driver to gunner or vice versa, even without a secondary driver. Because you could do it in real life. A missle lock jammer on the warthog agaist missle locks.
Huge maps, were we can fly teams of hundreds, through dedicated servers, onto our enemy's soil, trying to drop the bomb that would save humanity. I want to be out of ammo on some desolate shoping mall in the middle of new mombasa, and hear noises up ahead, wonder what they are, hide behind a tree, peak out and see two grunts walking left onto the street, so i pull them back into the shadows and do an array of punches to them, kicking them into the walls etc. I want to be able to call squads of reinenforcements if I need too, and they are avaliable. You know why? Because I'm a bloody Spartan, I'm not stupid, I have a bloody computer in my suit, I'll call reinforcements if I want them.
I want to feel the struggle John goes through in order to make that killing blow to the Zealot, Not fire this, throw that, change that, press that. I want to pull out thousands of different manouvers.
I want to beable to dealve off with my mates from around the world on some secret mission to the depths of the covenant frontline.
I also probably want way too much.
