Bungie should go back to thier roots with what they had going
that was great in Halo 1, especially in the areas of plot cinematics and presentaion of the story.

Halo 3 should have the same style, charm and flair that Halo 1 did when it came out.
(Campaign ) I don't know what it is but the storyline from Halo 2 felt like someone
different wrote it. If they could look at some of the big story points in Halo 1
that worked so well that FANS LIKE SO MUCH and apply these things to Halo 3,
The new game would be so much fun, especially the campaign.

Some of the plot points particulary awesome, were

1 the introduction of the ring as a weapon
2 the revealing of the flood
3 the loss of captain keyes

In Halo 1 these were some GREEAATT jaw droppers, it kept the intensity up
and the story was new, fresh, and SUSPENSEFUL.

In Halo 2 there wern't that many big things that were shockers. The civil war with
the coventant and the gravemind werer interesting, but not revolutionary.
The change to having no med kits was excellent though.

Halo 3 needs to have several big shocking surprises that will both keep fans happy
and tie in with the storyline. Hopefully Bungie will inject some of campaign
greatness from Halo 1 and carry it over.
Perhaps the revealing of the Forerunners will help ??

They are already off to a good start with bringing back the AR.

All Bungie needs to do to ensure Halo 3 is a revolutionary success is take everything that was amazing about Halo 1, and everything that was amazing about Halo 2 and put it together... Then remove the things that didn't work so well with those games. Then balance and tweak it all out and add in some new features and weapons and you have a sure hit. Halo 3 will be amazing, no doubt.

Yes there should defininitly be some limit to how far you can drop.
It shou.d not be like halo 1, but there should be a limit of about
75-125 foot cap on drop distances.

In relation to the pistol, from halo 1 being brought over to Halo 3
it should be less common on maps than the dubbed down
magnum and should take two hands to control so that its not dual wieldable
it would be like a power weapon that everybody goes after.
It would be like having a power weapon like the sniper or rocket launcher.

I agree with you. Halo: CE had a great storyline, but it was less complicated and on a smaller scale than Halo 2's. I think the people who think Halo 2 had a crappy storyline just don't fully understand it.

I don't think that halo 2 had a crappy storyline,
it was decent, compared to some other games
out there, but what big plot twists did it have.

The gravemind was in there but he was not introduced
in a fashion that would qualify as a plot twist, he was
kinda just thrown in there.
