343 has dug halo such a deep hole, many believe it may not come out of it. Fact is they have the resources, the time, and the money to make Halo 6 EASILY the best Halo ever.
By the time Bungie released their third game, they had an empire it went:
Game 1: Revolutionary shooter
Game 2: Revolutionary shooter
Game 3: Phenomenal game
Now by the time 343 released their third game, things couldn’t look different:
Game 1: Killed most of the population
Game 2: Crippled mess
Game 3: Decent (while lacking content)
Now they say you learn from your mistakes, right? While Halo 5 was a step in the right direction, and a big one, considering they brought back balanced starts. But you still feel that it is lacking so many fundamental Halo attributes. Now that they have produced 3 games, they should be held to the standard Bungie was. If I worked at 343, I think I would have some good ideas to revive and satisfy the majority of the population.
Playable Elites:
YOU COULD WIN BACK SUCH A LARGE PART OF THE OLD COMMUNITY. They always said that that wanted multiplayer to be canon. So now that the humans have allied with the Arbiter, it makes sense. You can easily throw thrusters on those bad boys because we’ve seen it done in Halo 2 and Reach, so an opportunity awaits 343.
Bring back split-screen:
Pretty self explanatory. I, myself find it more of an inconvenience, rather than a game breaking mechanic (or lack thereof), but I know how many people hold split screen Halo close to their heart, so this would be a crowd pleaser.
Customization:
343 has the opportunity to have an armour customization system 10 times better than Reach’s. Look. You could have the core pieces:
-Helmet
-Left shoulder
-Right shoulder
-Chest
-Knee
-Visor
As well as other in-depth options that would refresh the look of your guy:
-Thruster pack
-Belt
-Legs
-Undersuit colour
IF THIS WAS ALL CUSTOMIZABLE, IT WOULD BE SO AMAZING.
Vehicles:
Bring in at least one air vehicle from every race, one tank from every race, one medium size vehicle from every race, and and a small vehicle from every race. Here’s my lineup:
Air:
-Banshee
-Phaeton
-Falcon
Tank:
-Scorpion
-Wraith
-(insert cool promethian name here)
Medium
-Warthog (Gauss, Mini, Rocket)
-Prowler
-Promethian version of Brute chopper
-Revenant (The half ghost/half wraith)
Light
-Mongoose (gungoose, rocketgoose)
-Ghost
-(insert cool promethian name here)
That would be a badass total of 13 different vehicles. Also I want vehicles to be indestructible unless your shields are off.
GAME MODES:
Come Halo 6, we need LOTS of content at launch to keep pulling us back into the game.
Arena:
-Team Slayer
-Team Arena
-CTF
-Assault
-Doubles
-Breakout
-BTB (objectives & slayer)
-Team Snipers
-Rumble
-SWAT
Social:
-Action Sack
-BTB
-Heavies
-Dominion
-Infection
-SWAT
-Team Slayer
-Lone Wolves
-Grifball
-6 team doubles
Warzone:
-Warzone (with more enemies roaming to serve just as a challenge for players)
-Invasion 12v12 (with Elites!!!)
-Warzone Objective (Slayer, CTF, KOTH, Territories)
FIREFIGHT:
With a full ranking system, round system, basically similar to CoD: Zombies only more open and instead of actual rounds it goes
-Round 1 (3 waves of weak enemies)
-Round 2 (5 waves of weak enemies)
-Round 3 (7 waves of weak enemies)
-Round 4 (5 waves of slightly tougher enemies)
You get the gist. It’s turned into a more organized and fun game mode.
FORGE:
For the record, I -Yoinking!- hate the new trilogy’s storyline. Unless, Osiris is Buck, the Arbiter, Jun and half-jaw, I will be disappointed. (HOW SICK WOULD THAT FIRETEAM BE?) So I want to be able to make my own missions. Basically, I just want a general improvement on Halo 5’s forge, PLUS scriptable AI
