In H3 what way do you want marines to act? More realistic but with the same old marine spirit? Or do you want it like a marine that knows he will die and earth may lose? Do you want them smarter and more capable on their own? This is what my thread is about.
The marines in the halo games have not changed for the most part since 2001, but I think the marines are lacking something. THey have the right spirit, but seem odd or out of place at times. I think its the way they fight and carry out missions. They cant seem to help much and may get in the way. And they seem to not utilize cover or many other common rules. Also, they die so fast!!
How do you want them to be?
I personally want their spirit to stay, that is what makes them halo marines. But I want them to utilize their environment more like real soldiers. They need to be able to stay alive longer and actually make a few kills on something besides grunts.
One example of amazing marine behavior and skill is Quake 4. The marines can clear a room quickly even with little help, you still have to make sure some kinds of enemies dont attack a marines, but they fight surprisingly well. They take cover. Also they can live for one room and still live after fighting the next room. Though they have a different non-halo spirit, they showcase the kind of military behavior and skill that may be good for ODSTs and marines in halo.
Also, I want their behavior to be tweaked slightly. They should interact and talk twice as much, keep their fun and joking behavior. The fun behavior is not doubled, but add seriousness to the other half of the behavior. So they are just as fun as H2 and H1, but the other half of the doubled interaction is serious. Half fun and half serious.
They need to fight smarter too. Using grenades on heavy targets, fighting from cover to cover, ect. Any of the moves you can think of.
What do you think? What do you want instead of my idea if you dont like it? Throw your thoughts.
