My point is stop stating the most ridiculous ideas ever. Honestly, do you want to hear about a 5 year old saying he wants the brute shot to shoot out broots, or that the needler should shoot stickies, or that you want duel wielding swords. All I ask is that you think before posting your idea. Think about what game your playing.


some of these ideas have no logic, and for people that believe human=forerunner its pure rumor and speculation

I love the thread starter. He has a brain. Unlike 95% of this forum's population.

The game dosen't have to be realistic. remember that its halo and not a every weapon kills people in one shot game. its not a stealth game either

Air strikes would take all stratagy out of the game. bungie would never do it. unless its automatic in campaign, thats it.

Is anyone else sick of these terrible ideas for halo 3? I know I am. I don't want to see knives, this isn't Far Cry. I don't want artillery or air strikes, this isn't Battlefield. This is Halo. Run and Gun. Not Ratchet and Clank with gravity guns, or Metal Arms where guns let you control enemies. Some ideas are good, but they are not for Halo 3 so think before you post your ideas that do not fit in Halo AT ALL.


I agree that there are some bull-blam!-, unoriginaly rediculous ideas out there. But, you have to understand, Halo 3 isn't going to be Halo 2 with a different engine and missions. There will also be different gametypes, features, and I'm pretty sure more larger battles. It won't be as good if we dont change anything and just say "well, if it ain't broke dont fix it"

Edit: Sorry Ganon2, but your ideas are the most stupid crap I've ever heard of in my life, for any game, and would totaly ruin Halo and everything, unless you're being sarcastic...

Thank you! People love to say that Halo needs. . . "Portable turrets", 49837564895 different types of snipers, more then 2 grenades, ect.. ect... It is crazy. Sure they are good on other games because the mechanics are different from Halo's. BUT think about this... What is the #1 game on the Xbox... hrmmm... HALO! Why is that? Because it is completely different from other games.

Sadly... I have seen screenshots of Halo (straight from Bungie) in a magazine that had a Spartan holding TWO energy swords in what looked like the bottom of a base on Coagulation. I personally don't like the idea, but I trust in Bungie to make it work.

There is a fine line between stupid, ok ideas and fair ideas. Stuff like nifes i don't think it would work...but I thought that about the energy sword so i'm open minded. Air strike i like in game but in halo your usualy fighing somwhere besides earth, and in this one when your on earth everything is destroyed...so air stickes wouldn't work. Think before you post but don't hesitate to post ideas is what I think, every idea if done properly is a good idea.

I believe a dual wielding sword would be nice, but you really wouldnt be able to do anything differently than you would with one, you already swing super fast, and lunges kill in one hit...

maybe a double lunge?

true but most theories shared in these times just get flamed or put down immediately. This just adds to the fact of the matter that you better have some info to back up your theory, do some pre-thinking, and prepare to be flamed if necessary.

Umm dude: Theory-A set of statements or principles devised to explain something.
If a theory didnt make sence then its either called random crap or its fufilling it definition. Plus this guys talking about stupid ideas not theorys theres a difference. People will make theorys about the story given what information the are provided with, most of these ive seen to make good sence and do not really clog up the forum. However I have to agree with him that people making threads asking for gravity guns, duel swords, scoped pistol, airstrikes and the such are mostly crap. Airstrikes may fit in with realism but think about it, have you ever seen a guy running around an alien ring world killing aliens? If you have please direct me to it. The whole reason halo is so fun is because of A. Its massive fan base, B. Its well balanced wepons, and C. Its amazingly fitting scenarios abilitys and weapons. Duel swords would make MC look retarded to anyone looking at him, the pistol would majorly overbalance multiplayer, a gravity gun would destroy the halo feel as would airstrikes, play battlefield for a bit against airstrike whores. Really Really not fun. As for a jetpack, how would you control it? Like a floating modder? or with the l and r triggers so that it would be awkward to impossible to aim / shoot. Elites have the jetpacks to make them a bit of a challenge and theyre only put in that mission due to one important factor.... they suck.

Basicly what Im saying is this guys is 100% correct, This game got such a large fanbase for a reason and does have a certain feel to it. I for one feel that a PDZ no autoaim game would blow just as PDZ does online. But the autoaim should not be as stupidly obvious as H2. The weapons non futuristic looks make the game seem so much more imaginiable and makes you connect with the chief that much more. As fun as running around blowing the hell outa people with a 10 round rocket launcher with heat seeking in some games is. Its just not Halo.

They should just keep Halo 3 very simular to Halo CE and Halo 2, but upgrade it and add new and improved things with a cool campaign and multi-player. Simple as that.
