I think just playing as a regular marine would be cool. Especially if the AI was actually worth something so you could play with a bunch of other marines. Then every once in a blue moon, a spartan could show up. I think being a regular marine would make the covenant that much scarier.


I figured it would have been best if Reach was like this instead of what we got. It wouldn't have created so many plot holes and probably would have told a better story.

A Forerunner during the first outbreak of the flood.

If you cannot provide proof or simply cannot provide a rational, logical argument then don't say anything at all.

A H4 Elite. The detective story revolves around solving the mystery of where your forearm armor pieces went... Who stole them?!


This. With an ODST style story.

  • 07.28.2012 2:43 AM PDT

The Covenant races, apart from the Sanghieli and Jiralhanae.

Both the Unggoy and marines could make for interesting squad-based gameplay.

A story through the eyes of Captain Keyes would be interesting.

  • 07.28.2012 5:18 AM PDT

A naval officer, Keyes and Cole especially.

The game would be like a Halo version of Star Fox.

  • 07.28.2012 7:54 PM PDT

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

This isn't a character, but I'd like to see another RTS, but this time with space battles.

Keyes Loop anybody?


This guy knows what's up.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

An ONI agent, a human civilian, or a young Forerunner explorer.

Nah, to hell with organic beings, ONNSK, The SuperIntendent, or another A.I, could all be main characters in a game. Instead of conversational boredoms such as human beings.

Think of it, you control an entire city through an A.I, desperately trying to lead a bunch of humans to safety, relying solely on surveillance cameras, pressure pads, data systems, control over doors, etc. That could make a hell of an engaging story.

A mongoose that drives other vehicles. So John sees a Scorpion moving up to him, he decides he wants it, and a mongoose comes out and begins riding a marine.

The game should include skimishers as well.
Though it would be extremly violent, it should show people that the Halo series was not meant for children.

A brute

Imagine playing as a chieftain leading yor brute pack into battle. Or just playing as brute infantry.

Perhaps there could be an arcade sort of game type in a Halo game where you play as a brute dropping into a human city and killing as many humans as possible. There would be cool executions as well.

It is a sad world that we live in when pointless violence and acts of sadism are synonymous with maturity. Personally, I wouldn't go near such a Halo game with a ten foot barge pole.

And it's voiced by Morgan Freeman. That way it doesn't have to shoot. Everyone will just go "Okay" no matter what he says.

Dont you get annoyed when people call the Halo series cartoon games, just because the spartans and aliens have other colors than gray, drab, brown and black. It gets on my nerves really.

That would actually make a great tower defence-ish game if anyone could get the rights and allowances for the series allowing them to do so.

And it would make a great game if done right.

"Happiness is like glass, you might not always notice it but if you change your view and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light."

Playing as one of the Mona Lisa prisoners would be interesting. Also, the A.I thing is really good. Another idea would be playing as the Unsc's greatest space commanders in a rts. Keys, Cole and all the other lunatics in one strategy game. Also, Dirt would be interesting if you allowed Odsts.

Halo multiplayer sucks!

Based on campaigns

Halo 2 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo 3 > Reach/CE tied

Exactly. Halo is rated 16+, so it's time we introduced some seriousness. And if that includes some violence, let it be.

I understand that when it comes to brutes, making a deep story won't work, since many people hate them after seeing what they did to humanity on earth. I would like to see this as a secondary game type. There could be a plaza or something in New Mombasa, with lots of civilians walking around, then your phantom stops over them and you drop out and see how man you can kill. You can then explore the entire city, hunting down remaining civilians, fighting human resistance, and calling down Covenant squads to help you out.

To reach a place where you can call in a specific squad, you need to fight through humans guarding that area. Once you've unlocked all the areas you can call down hunters and chieftains. You can also ask for weapon drops with whatever covie weapon you want. But you need to unlock these by getting a specific number of kills or a specific kill style.

How about an ONI agent?

  • 07.29.2012 9:38 PM PDT

The Longrangers, a specially trained marine group with sprint and jetpacks.

This got me thinking,

Grind: Specialty vehicular combat. Your go ahead for any pilot / driver needs. Although fierce in combat he remains versed in classical american literature, and noted to enjoy mark twain.

Switch: Explosives expert. She's a bit quite, but that makes it all the more impressive when she makes noise.

Turn: Long Range heavy Artillary. Switch's husband, he's kind despite the conditions. Noneteless he's prepared to use the full amount of his arsenal at a moments call.

Break: Stealth / Close quarters combat. Need to clear a hall of baddies? Save the frag. Send in Break.

I agree with this.

A grunt...

You would be weaker than an ODST. You'd be scurrying around for your life 24/7.
