I always found sitting on a turret blasting enemies in any game a complete bore. This wouldn't be a very good idea. It'd get old ... fast.

Let Bungie make the damn game the way they want to. Besides, I highly doubt bungie is taking suggestions.

I think there might be a massive battle at the end. A fight for survival, a fight to the end, or to save the galaxy from being erased that kind of thing...

yes, no matter what it takes, at least 1 giant battle, mortars, tanks, vehicles, cruisers, banshees, longswords, & hundreds of troops, more of both sides coming onto the field, human covenant, sentinel, flood, (forerunner?), all fighting for 30 minutes. unreasonable? or so reasonable your american raised mind can do nothing to defend against but digiuse it as its opposite?

I agree with the ai in multiplayer. It makes the action insane!!!. I played a custom Halo PC map where they had 50 spartans, it was insanely awsome, but nobody figured out how to make a real game out of it. The AI's aren't smart enough for objective games, and slayer type games end way too fast. Slayer games are also way too furious to apply much of a strategy?

I will admit that playing that Halo PC game with the 50 AI's was the first time I ever actually got my "slayer fix". It was the first time I ever felt "full" or "satisfied" to the point where I was just plain done playing for a while.

Plus, the battles were stale because every single different type of character was the SAME model (very stale and too-perfect looking).


What, you mean like the covenant? Save for some differentiation in colour.

A flashback to the Fall of Reach! When the Reactors for the MACs were attacked.... A battle that you don't have to win because it's just a flashback/vid.....

I just played the New Kameo Demo that had a massive battle that sorta put Halo 1 & 2 to shame when it comes to having 100+ enemies on the map at one time. I've played a couple of the massive battle customs for Halo PC which were awsome. I'm sure with some careful design, it could be done without crashing the system. Even if it were 100+ spartans fighting the arbiter with an energy sword, it would still be pretty cool.

Imagine the Master Chief crashing onto a covenant ship where an entire legion is assembeled in formation...all of the grunts and jackals run off screaming, but the 100+ elites close in?


Sounds cool but remember that Halo is not Kameo, anyway it would be a awesome experience plus imagine shooting a couple rockets into them and grenades; there would be so many dead bodies and it would likely be a level that ends up being the most played. Imagine covenant vehicles in a line charging at a line of human vehicles then all of a sudden they all shoot in unison at each other, the sound effects would sound totally awesome on the x-box360 and the explosions would likely blow us away. Simply you're idea is as good as the other twenty same posts that I have read but keep faith in you're self.

I just thought of a good visual thing. You're on the battlefield with the whole 100+ enemies at once thing going. Then behind them you see a Covenant Cruiser coming in to drop of more troops then something explodes inside the ship and it starts heading towards the earth then smashes into the ground.

And from the side or front view (whever you are when it crashes) the Cruiser keeps going and going spewinga load of dirt into the air. If you kinda get what I'm trying to say it will be a visual feast. Especially render in 3D on the X360 and on a HDTV. I'll try and make an image in Photoshop to kinda show what I'm saying.

This is kinda what I was talking about in my above post. But I expect the real one to be better. That is...if they put it in.

I think...
The last level should be some kind of survival mode thing in the Ark, you know in other games?
You have to fight off hundreds of Flood whilst Cortana is attempting to re-program the Ark to cleanse all Flood lifeform, Brute, Drone and Jackal.

Just an idea :/

It worked well enough in Two Betrayals.

That was the best set piece of Halo CE. And it was the biggest ommission from Halo 2.

yeah, but that wasn't some massive battle with hundreds of bad guys.

It was a carefully set out situation where you had to cleverly take on about 30 bad guys.
