If you want to be a part of one of the greatest and most active communities in the seventh column, come here. You will thank me later.

I don't know about you guys, but I would personally prefer to be occupied with this game for fifteen hours at least on normal. Bungie needs to make this one longer, that was a big problem with halo 2.

I also think that they should make the normal difficulty a bit more challenging this time around.

If Team Swat became ranked, would there still be no shields?


Amazing!

They do. It's called Heroic.

I want a game that leaves me satisfied, that leaves me with the feeling "That was worth the 50 dollars I spent.". If it does that, in any way, I like the game, whether it's 1 level or 100.

Yes i beat Halo 2 in like 12 hours, cuz i skipped school and then after i got home the next day I immediately beat it. Bungie should do this, because now all the FPS games are beaten to easily.

I completely agree, I think they should put the game on two disc, one for single player, one for multiplayer... if they cram it all on one disc it wont be very long... all those beautiful graphics are going to take up alot of disc space... I wish Microsoft would have used Blu Ray discs... or at least HD-DVD....

I do think they should make it longer cause i feel it's a long way for this to be over.

HD-DVD is coming sometime.

If you want blu-ray, go to PS3 and pay $600.

If your bashing halo 2 with CE, um halo ce only had ten levels, Halo 2 had 15.

Well i think this game is easily going to be the longest one because it is probably the last one of the series. There needs a lot to be explained. How big of a role do the flood play in this? What is the Arbiter doing? What are going to happen to the prophets? If the ark is on earth how are we going to stop it without blowing up the planet? This game is even worth just watching the cut scenes! Its gonna be sweet. I probably would guess that it will be around 17 to 20-25 levels long. Well, probably not 25, but 20 Maybe.

If the Campaign is anything like Halo CE's, I'll love it. That campaign is classic, IMO.

The game should be at least 200 hours of gameplay, with occasional pong mini-games as well as the classic "shoot the chicken" mini-game. MC should also be super powerful in the beginning and then lose all his good stuff immediately after you start playing. Then you can slowly rebuild his arsenal up until the end of the game. It would also be nice if they added a stealth meter and some kind of proximity/remote mines, so we can take a break from the shoot-em-up action time to time. An option to move to a 3rd person "bird eye view" would be cool as well, allowing us to navigate MC and the marines, through the treacherour terrain, acquiring keycards to allow us to proceed to the next area.

And they should lastly change its name to "MetroPandConquer"

This should greatly increase the number of people interested in the game as well as the gameplay length significantly, while only breaking several copyrights.

"On the seventh day, god did not rest, but rather he created 64 player multiplayer!"

lol 3rd person view will never happen. That destroys the art of online FPS - for example: behing able to turn the camera to the side so you can see around corners, over hills/rocks/vehicles, etc....). Bungie could not choose to have a first-person and a third-person view changer option available because then it makes it unfair to those who play first-person since they're not able to see around those corners and whatever...

Leave it first-person in my opinion...the series started as first-person and it's gonna end first-person damnit, lol

I would like to see about fifteen missions. Each of them roughly as long as a single level for Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter.

i think that bungie should not make their own campaign, they should just take the campaign from splinter cell and put the master cheif in it.
(/sarcasm)


no, i think bungie can work their magic on this game just like they have the last two.

you cannot satisfy the general public, it's just not possible, but bungie does a damn good job with people like me. people who appreciate a game, not for what it looks like or who made it or how long it is, but the story that drives the game.

I have played through several games and i find myself revisiting the ones that i grew attached through the story.

example: I find myself revisiting the campaign of Republic Commando over and over, the multiplayer has absolutely nothing to do with the game itself other than the character models.

Halo, i play through all aspects of it all the time, LAN parties bringing all of my best buddies under one roof for a night of fragging, and when some of them fall asleep, the "survivors" of the action race eachother through campaign levels...

-Fast.
