Imagine the possibilities that could arise if they followed a hyper-advanced AI system (think Oblivion and multiply it by 500,000x) for when you or your AI companions are idle. Here are some examples:
- A Grunt attempts to pet a snake but gets bit in the hand and flails his hand in pain as another Grunt comes over and laughs at him as he scrambles for a first aid kit. While this is happening, an Elite walks over and wonders what is going on.
- Marines carry canteens of water or a futuristic ration and start drinking or eating after a long idle time, or take out a rag and clean and check over their weapon.
- Marines, fellow Spartans (if any), and the Master Chief could make hand gestures and movements based on their appropriate situation (Arbiter only, if you fight side by side).
- Hunters could kick a Jackal or Drone's body after a battle or stomp on it.
- True Emotions and Facial Expressions to portray fear, comedy, pain, and so on.
- Appropriate area limping and grunting if a person has been shot.
All in all, hopefully you understand the idea. Post your own ideas of actions that the AI could perform, be it funny, serious, or just plain interesting. These little things would make a great difference in improving the ambience of Halo 3.
