2017 Update Predictions/Wishlist

Now, I know we just got this amazing update, and 343 is getting a lot of positive feedback for it. I’m sure they want to keep the ball rolling, and we the community can help with that. So down below, please feel free to leave any predictions or wishes for Halo 5 updates next year!

Early 2017 (January?) - We receive all of those beautiful Reach-styled helmets that were recently teased, and perhaps maybe a few other Reach-related items, maps, or gamemodes.

February - A Halo Wars 2-themed update, complete with Banished vehicles, and maybe even some new UNSC ones. Perhaps they would be on par with “Ultra” variant vehicles, and do increased ramming damage.
Maybe it could also come with new weapons, such as the Brute Shot, the Chainbreaker (Atriox 's hammer), and perhaps a few other Brute weapons.

Well, those all my thoughts. What about yours? Please leave your thoughts, predictions, and wishes down below!

More Arena maps with a emphasis on more creative design/layouts… for the most part, the best maps in the game are still the ones that came in the disk.

Vary up the map sizes a bit… they’re basically all cubes/circles of equal sizes, with Stasis, Torque, and Eden only being slightly more elongated. There’s a seeming lack of character in the designs from one map to the other. Lots of flat sections with ramps and right angles… It’s not a huge, glaring issue, but it would be nice to see some more creative designs going forward with unique environmental features and spaces to fight.

My predictions:

  1. Release date: mabey February if they want to do something for the release of Halo Wars 2 or, the more likely release date, it will be released on March judging by the new schedule being (apparently) every 3 months.

  2. Content: the helmets (you know with them being teased, variants for the sentinel beam, the orange grenade launcher, more mp maps, and mabey the plasma launcher.

  3. Fixes: Theater mode (wishing for too much but you never know), removing the respawn timer in WZFF, and whatever else that needs fixing and/or changing.

  1. Gift gold packs using REQ points (if not i understand, its a bit risky. Maybe only able to gift silvers with points)
  2. Halo 2 Spectre
  3. Make it more worth it to play harder difficulty Warzone. Heroic basically gives you the same REQ points/minute (at least it seams that way to me) as Mythic

I’ll add more if I think of anything

I wish for… bayonet assassinations! :relaxed:

343 plz

élite come back playable :heart::+1:

The helmets are a definate for the next update so here’s my wishlist:

  • Body piece counterparts to the 2017 helmets

  • Brute Shot

  • Final Grenade Launcher (Noob Tube I’d assume is the title)

  • Incinerary Grenades

  • The ability to toggle on and off sniper glare in custom games

  • A weapon rarity slider for Super Fiesta custom game settings

  • Some more ocean themed pieces for Forge since we now have Depths

I agree there needs to be more maps that are up to par with the originals for team arena. Environmental hazards would be cool, but they would have to be relatively manageable. The way arena is in halo 5, having the tendency to snowball due to power weapons, you don’t really want any parts of the map to be a death trap because the losing team is already at large disadvantage in those instances.
