)))))))- Customizable guns.....just like there is a red and a blue base...the guns should have decals on them corresponding to what base they originated from. It would be neat to come running back to your team and say hey, i got red sniper. It would jsut add a lil more spice to the whole red v blue thing which makes halo mp pretty cool. As for the weapons u start with they should be covered in the colors and decals that u assign in settings with your characters armor.
)))))))- Jetpacks......just like when u couldnt touch the sword in h ce you couldnt use the jetpacks in h2....in h3 jetpacks could be implemented simply into mp and make the combat more fun. Jetpacks would be used just like a long, high jump and u can orient urself and "lean" just like u can during a normal 8ft jump, except now its a 500ft jump with a little more gliding. [double tap A and hold the second tap down until u reach desired altitude or until u max out the charge, then its like a controlled slow free fall.] Jetting up and boarding a pelican or a banshee would be pretty excting not to mention the ability to get to hit up places for positioning and such.
)))))))- Shields.......a lot of people made comments about having the jackal shield in mp or campaign and i love the idea. But i dont like the idea of 117 marcing around with a pansy-a$$ yellow umbrella looking type shield....id much rather jsut have an overshield....In the halo graphic novel there are a few panels in "Last voyage" that show half jaw using an "elite sized" energy shield.....this would make for some interesting gameplay with blocking fire for a short period of time.....dual wierlding shield and gun....but its claim to fame would easily be the SWORDS gametype - shields and swords only- with respective blocking and slashing with the L and R triggers (shield and sword should both have limited energy) - would be a futuristic version of medieval combat in halo form....definitely the chance for some epic battle scenarios. And no, a combat knife would not be a good halo weapon. Masybe if u want to go rob a candy store or carjack an old lady with ur 12 inches of steel it would be a logical choice; but if your looking to cut down hordes of elites with advanced armor and energy shielding in the year 2552 i think youll be better off with something a little more "sharp".
)))))))- stop talking about the halo ce pistol and start thinging about what type of magic is going to come with those new mits on 117's hands - its a little more realistic.

-------) just a thought....his old gloves and shoes had panels that looked like dice and they had 5 dots on each....now there are 4 dots on each foot and 3 on his hands.....lucky number 7.

Nothing personal...

* First Idea: Meh, I guess more customization options are okay.

* Second Idea: No, it just doesn't seem very Halo-like to me. Plus I see that being pretty broken in MP and Campaign alike.

* Third Idea: People will talk about whatever they want, too bad eh?
