One of the main things i would like to see in halo 3 is Civilians, I mean dont you think it would be cool if when you were on the game you were walking through a street and then suddenly a small family (mum and 2 kids) run around the corner ahead of you and the squad that your with gets in a battle stance ready for a fight, then the family notices your sqad and start to run behind you but 1 of the kids falls over and the mum races back to get the kid and as she bends down to pick him up BAM!!! shes shot in the head and the kid gets up and leans over his/her mum and starts to cry mum, mum get up mum,plz im scared and then an elite picks up the kid and holds it hostage but your squad and you do the noob combo that in that video you get with the map pack and save the kid.

Also having Civilians in the game could add to the rpg aspects of the game (E.G)"master chief ya came just in time we've got a little problem in the next street,its a large group of covie bastards who decided to pik a fire fight with us, me and half my sqaud managed to escape, the rest sir ther...ther gone *holds his head down* as we left they started to set up a transmiter to call dropships they will be here within 10 minintes (realtime 10 minintes) if we dont stop them".Another low ranking marine comes to speak to the mc he says "Sir there a building being attacked its got a large group of CIVILIANS in it i think it will take about 10 MININTES to get them out.

So there you have it you have ot choose between saving the civilians or killing the covie squad before the dropships come.

Having civilians could also add to the replayabilty of the game.And be a good way to implament gamer points.

Of corse you dont have to save the civilians if you dont want to so if your a fastpaced kinda player who wants to do the game fast you dont have to save the civilians if you dont want to.

And remember that bungie could always upgrade missions when u go on live so there is always somthin new to do.

In any areas where there are Covenant, there wouldn't be any left. Covenant ground troops aren't like human occupying armies of today; they kill everything in the city. Something like 12 civilians survived at Cote' De Azur, and that was only because they found a very good hiding spot. If any cicilans would be alive, they'd be hiding similarly well.

they should hide civilians, and you have to kill them, and then hit x and rip out their skulls for secret skulls

and then grunts should come and make love to their corpses

The covenant do not take prisoners, and they do not leave survivors. if there are civilians in game they would be mutilated corpses sactered across the ruins of earth.

As if some of the more sadistic gamers wouldn't kill children. The only thing that gamers wouldn't kill on a consistent basis is puppies and cute dogs. If you were in position to protect Golden Retriever puppies, I guarantee you would see a new form of rage come out of players in the campaign mode. How pissed would you be if a Brute started firing plasma rounds at a mother Golden Retriever while she tried to nurse her puppies. Oh. It'd be on like Donkey Kong!

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

In order to truely grasp the enormity of the panick and confusion in this sort of time of crisis, you would need insanely large ammounts of proccessing power, much more than the 360 or any console could ever hope to generate...each civilian needs AI code...very hard to do. But if they could somehow pull it off, it would be amazing. To be defending a refugee camp of over 1,00 with only ah andful of marines and pelicans as a Covenant Army approaches...yeah, that would be awesome.

I think you should burn your halo disc for wanting something this skill free, host dependent, repetative, stupid, and overall bad. I hope you burn in the hottest fires of hell for presenting such a terrible idea. In conclusion, jesus died for everyone but you.

Ninja Academy

idk.... i hate games where civilians come running out of hiding to you, i usually shoot them in the head without even thinking what they are. If u come running at me you'll be "Shot first, asked questions later."

the game needs civilians.....i mean earth is the final place....right where the hell are they going to evac to???? but they shouldn't be the kind of civilians that run in front of you while your shooting.....there should be a few unarmed civilians running around but some should hold like elephant shotguns.....and hunting rifles....seriously this war has been known about for 25 years and now suddenly they land on your home planet....most people will be pissed....so pissed that they'll buy guns and ammo and start shooting any inhuman son of a -blam!- to stand on their property
