I just got and read the Halo Graphic Novel, and it gave me 2 ideas about some multiplayer (and i guess one will work in SP) additions.
First: Dual weilding swords (i know this is NOT new...but my take on it may be)
To balance the fact that u got 2 uber swords, the mechanics of DWing 2 swords should be bery different than using one. (if u know your star wars, jedi who use 2 sabers are not necessarily more powerful than a jedi with one) When DWing, your melee atk spd is doubled (pressing B), but you do like 60% dmg of a single melee hit with each swing. Also, Instead of a longer range lunge, dual weilders do a scissor swipe that does more side to side dmg (possibly killing multiple ppl who are in front of u), but u do not move forward like you do with 1 sword in hand.
Second: Adding Avery Johnson as a playable char in MP
Instead of having sheilds, Johnson would have a life bar that regenerates like the sheilds do. Since it has been established in the novels that he regenerates similarly to wolverine, it would be possible to throw him in MP with a mechanic similar to that of the Spartans/Elites.
Neither of these are NEW ideas, but they are takes on them that I have not seen before...*Puts on flameproof vest and waits for the fire to start*
