Just out of left-field here. I was thinking that maybe Master Chief could have a grappling hook that he could shoot (from his forearm?) that he could use to hook on to things and "swing" from one spot to another (Spidermasterchief?). It could have a harpoon type point that he could shoot out at Covenant or objects that he wanted to latch onto and then swing around to use as a weapon to clobber people with. I don't know where he would store all the cable he would need to shoot it, how he would retract it, and if he would be able to detach it when he needed to. Maybe they have some new technology which allows him to continuously regenerate some sort of organic cable like a spider constantly creates new webbing that he stores in some device attached to his arm that he can shoot out, attach somehow, and then disconnect when he reaches his objective. The computer program to handle this would have to be rather sophisticated, I think. But I'm sure Bungie can handle it. This way the Master Chief would never be unarmed.
And, can somebody tell my why in HALO #1 the jeeps have cable hoists on the front of them that you can't use because they're not real? I can't remember, do the jeeps in HALO #2 have those same pretend hoists underneath the front of them? What's up with that?
How about a Master Chief Bull Whip? Electrified for stunning?
