The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

I want to see something on a epic scale. Similar to the the battle for Helms Deep or the battle for the White City. Thousands of troops on each side facing off.

Yup. Something epic; that's really the best way to describe it

Something like this, and accompanied by something epic in sound from Marty; sound is just as important

BEACH LANDING!!!!!!!! i want to see a beach landing so incredible baddly that i may be willing to kill for it. it would be incredible. PLASTMA FLYING EVERYWHERE FUEL ROD EXPLOTIONS BLASTING AWAY YOUR ALLIES BEING PICKED OFF BY EXPLOTIONS AND BEACH CRAFT LANDING ON SHORE MAKING SOME KIND OF EFFORT TO TAKE OUT SOME OF THE COVANANT WHILE UP ABOVE COVANANT BANSHEE'S AND PHANTOMS DOG FIGHT WITH LONGBOW FIGHTERS AND PELICANS OR OTHER HUMAN FLYING MACHINES. IT WOULD BE INCREDIBLE. but it would require so much out of the x-box and stuff there would probobly have to be like some kind of install to handle it all.

I'd love to see some of the fleet engagment, even if just briefly. Maybe we'll get to actuallly see a MAC gun fire...or even better see some of Earth's orbital Super-MAC defenses trying to fend off the Covenant onslaught.

A battle in a small town, instead of marines your comrades are old guys with shotguns.

In the Discovery Channel video Jamie talks about the Orbital MAC that you can aim and shoot.

I would want to see a battle where there is some sort of huge alien...like a boss or somethin...where it is incredibly hard to beat. Maybe it could be the end of the game, just Master Chief versus this gigantic Covenant creature for control of the universe. Maybe they would destroy each other in the final cut-scene and all would be well in the universe...except there wouldn't be another Halo...nevermind...scratch this idea...I want...correction need more Halo

He never actually says it's the MAC he's talking about, but it probably is

Another thing he said is that they are trying to increase the overall "epicness" of the game, so that goes hand-in-hand with this thread

I'm expecting great things :)

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

One: It's called Minas Tirith.

Two: I'd like to see one involving a mass attack on a city. Litterally... like nothing but heavy Urban Combat. ODST's making an air assault landing.... with Marines and Armor all fighting against a hugly numrical superior force of Covenant..... something that invovles house to house, building to building, floor to floor, room to room fighting....

I'd love some sort of epic "last resistance" battle in it. If well implemented those kinda battles allways bring a tear to my eye, and of course they get me all pumped up with combat adrenaline.

I'd have 1 where you are flying in a pelican and land on a beach then boom boom covenant fire everywhere next your pelican is hit down you crash but you survive and so do a couple of marines next chief kicks the back guner seat and starts giving cover fire marines come running from behind rees and pieces of pelicans next your out of ammo in the backseat gun. After that about 50 covies run down marines throw grenades take out only 8. Chief starts charging boom chief gets his gun shot out of his hand by a enemy sniper unarmed then cortana says chief you've got a knife in the back of your armor pulls the knife stabs a grunt and a elite steals the elites plama sword 5 marines plus chief survive and get to the base nade out booom the door smashes open plasma shot zap zap needle 2 marines down eventually chief storms the building and kills all the covenant.

Chief calls the for back up 3 pelicans come marines get dropped and so do some new guns and ammo soldiers get inside then zooooom 6 covie ships shoot boom boom boom chief sprints and mans a machine gun (the base was human) brrrrrd brrrd brdchief downs 1 covie ship zap zap zap 2 pelicans down by banshees.Machine gun fire 5 on 5 dog fight between humans and covies chief starts firing on enemy covies still coming marines are taking positions snipers first bang bang bang bang bang shells flying covies dropping marines machine gun firing nearly deafening.Covies grenades boom boom boom marines down brrrrrrrrrrrrr covies down eventually they die 10 marines are still alive 3 wounded 15 dead chief calls a dropship for the wounded calls another for him and the 10 marines.Zzooooom pelicans take the wounded first cortana calls the next place to go 10 marines go with you.

Well of course I want epic battles like all of you, but I think you've pretty much beat the horse to a pulp (thanks :-)) for me. So, how about a commando op? Those are what the Chief is designed for now that I think about it. Imagine it - late in the game (maybe level 17 of 20) you and some ODSTs are on a Covie ship like the Unyielding Hierophant, and you've gotta be stealthy or every Covie on board will be on ya. So, to assassinate the Admiral Elite (an armor color we haven't seen yet, crystalline maybe?) you launch a grapple up and scale the wall on the dark side of the building with the Marines, being careful never to move while the motion scanner robots are circling around your side of the spire in the ship's central living environment. But, you have to make it to the top before your active camouflage runs out or suddenly 5 great big targets will appear on the largest structure of the ship. Once you're inside, the Marines change out their subsonic ammo for some HV rounds and detach their silencers. The Elite is a few rooms down, but it heavily armed and the Chief is the only one who can take him out...

I'd write more but I gotta play some Halo before my Monster energy drink wears off.

This is on xbox live i would like to see it, but i supose there could be some thing similar in the campaign.
I was hoping that there would be ermmm large battles invoving 64 (maybe more if possible) people! very similar to your big map thing, i would be cool having all the different warthogs full of people zooooming across the land scape when boom an alien defence turret smashes it and mangles it, you respawn to see a mass of warthogs scorpions (any new vehicles) moving towards the enemy, what i sight!?

I'd just like to see how the Chief is gonna get out of that situation at he end of the mombassa vid were he's surrounded by all those elites with plasma swords. That and a large tank battle. That'd do me

I would like to see a battle with all the marines retreating and dieing and then thirty or so pelicans drop in a bunch of marines and then kill everyone...but then again...wouldn't a bomb just take out the "epic" battle

Yeah a large tank battle would be great. Maybe in some open plains or grasslands. that would be great.
