A huge bunch of MP ideas

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Hey 343 (and anyone who is reading this, i’m not leaving you guys out either!) I remember my days of Halo 4 and as the rest of the fans, I am pulling some (hopefully to you guys, amazing) ideas for the Multiplayer. Go ahead and read if you think some of this seems not amazing and such, comment below state why and such.

Cinematicy like-maps, Imagine, your spartan (or elite) falls down from a cliff and you think “Ohh -Yoink-, suicide!” Well you guys should give the player a chance and let him/her guide the control stick and have them slide and maybe jump back to safety or use the jetpack to fly back up and get into the action, this would make a great surprise attack to the enemies, also your character should be able to let obstacles fall and such, make things feel like were in a war or whatever.

Elites- I am VERY sure we heard, “most of you guys were apart of bungie.” When I got onto Halo 4, I was so freaking prepped to change my character to an elite and imagine my surprise when I saw no elites, “What the heck?” Bring them back! Seriously, a bunch of fans went super :frowning: after seeing them gone!

More customizing Options- I was very VERY disapointed at the lack of customizeable like armor, like Hayabusa, so were other fans of the Halo franchise, bring those back and maybe add assassination also, bring back Hayabusa and then if the spartan is preparing an assassination, the guy/girl should pull out the katana and stab em

Bring back the Hornet!- The hornet in my opinion was the best flying vehicle to ever come into the Halo series, make it come back except better than ever, like have it more agile and faster (add this to the Banshee to!)

More forge like maps- We need more of these, when forge came back in Halo 4, it was upgraded and I and many other fans LOVED it! But there were not that many forge like maps, bring Sandtrap back? Add another great forge map? And no type of “free” DLC maps this time, Forge Island I think was an excellent idea and its good to know that it was free, but I don’t wan’t to download another map like Forge Island due to the fact it should have come with Halo 4. No, i’m not trying to say “NUH FREE MAPS!” I’m just saying that maps like Forge Island should come with the game.

Dual Wielding-SOOOO many fans wan’t dual wielding to return, add it on load outs and upgrade it to where melee and switching can be in, that would be amazing!

Elite armor- The elite armor should be like Spartan Armor, you get it by ranking up. But though here is my opinion of what the ranks should be. It should be the same as Halo:Reach’s elite armor ranking, but though add four more after Field Marshall. Officer, Councilor (the ones off of Halo:2), Surpreme Commander, and finally The Arbiter armor, I remember seeing so many people ask for The Arbiters armor as DLC and have it return in Halo:Reach.

Thats all, hope everyone agrees with at least some of it. Kthxbai

> bring back Hayabusa

Extremely likely that it won’t be done. Hayabusa armor was only in Halo 3 because Bungie made an agreement with the studio that makes DoA, and DoA had a Spartan character, and Halo 3 had Hayabusa armor. Your best bet is to hope 343i makes an armor set that looks Samurai-inspired.

> Bring back the Hornet!- The hornet in my opinion was the best flying vehicle to ever come into the Halo series, make it come back except better than ever, like have it more agile and faster (add this to the Banshee to!)

Hornet was OP in regular MP, the version with no missiles was better, but could still single-handedly spawn trap an entire team. Making it agile and fast would also defeat the purpose of the vehicle to be opposite of the Banshee, by being slow, bulky, but having a lot of firepower.

> Dual Wielding-SOOOO many fans want dual wielding to return, add it on load outs and upgrade it to where melee and switching can be in, that would be amazing!

Allowing dual wield sets in loadouts would be bad, and as for why continuing custom loadouts is bad too, that’s been explained at least a thousand times on this forum. Letting someone melee or keep both dual wield weapons when switching to another weapon would defeat the purpose of dual wielding. Also, many fans are actually unsure about whether they want dual wielding back, and many also don’t want to see it return. I’ve explained that its purpose and inclusion makes sense, but what can you do.

Now then, I read your reply and some of the things you said are true. I did a bit of re-thinking (more of like using the hornet against friends on H3) And you are right, The Hornet is overpowered and should be less agile and such. The Hayabusa, I let that get to me, I liked the armor and I really would love to see it return but your also right, and also, no samurai like armor, NINJA like armor. Now then, you said that most of the fans don’t know about dual wielding. I object, most of the Halo Xbox One videos I have seen of bring backs, was dual wielding and I agreed with them, now then I do understand though that my ideas for Dual wielding would be to OPed and I also disagree with your opinion that custom classes should be gone. I don’t want to stroll around the map possibly almost getting killed for a BR or whatever, I already have to do enough of that for any needed OPed weapon, plus it seems good to know of some sort of good combination (and no combination like the noob combo)

Some things I disagree with-

  1. Halo 4 had the greatest range of customization options available ever in a Halo game. Being “disappointed” over a supposed lack of options makes no sense. Heck, I’m pretty sure Halo 4 has more visor colors than Halo 3 has actual armor sets.

  2. The Hornet was OP. Like a Mantis that could fly and carry people in place of shields. There should be some sort of human air vehicle though.

  3. Dual wielding has yet to be done right in a Halo game. It’s really hard to balance. (On a side note, isn’t it interesting how some people would remove “unbalanced gimmicks” like loadouts and yet also add dual wielding simply for the cool factor?)

By customization I mean something like the cloak MC wears or the Hayabusa Katana. 2, I agree with. Now then, you are right about Dual Wielding as it is a pain in the -Yoink-, but maybe 343 will find a way to work things out and such. By the way, the most OPed flying vehicle would be the scarab that could fly, its invincible, it can fire its weird beam, plasma, MG turrets, Gauss Turrets, Rocket Turrets, and Flamethrowers that can reach the entire map are fired all at once. P.S the attack is insta kill.

1.) No.
2.) Yes.
3.) No.
4.) Yes, although I’d prefer the Falcon.
5.) Yes and no. Halo 4 had a disappointing, broken Forge mode compared to Reach, but more Forge World/Island maps would be great.
6.) Yes and no. Loadouts need to go, but duel wielding is something that I wouldn’t mind seeing back if done properly.
7.) Yes.
