Before I start, yes, I know that it might not be called “Halo 6” and yes, I do know that 343 already have Halo 6 story almost done. Now, onto the idea.
Also, I’ve hidden this under a spoiler since it has some details about Halo 5’s ending.
Considering that 343 tried to make squad based combat a significant thing in Halo 5’s campaign, I was thinking that maybe the next installment in the main series could be closer to an RPG… sort of. I was thinking that instead of Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris, we could have one massive team which the player can select 3 squad mates from, kind of like what goes on in the Mass Effect series. The fact that Osiris and Blue Team are pretty much best buds now makes this even more possible.
So, I was thinking that in single player, the player would take control of John-117 and have a choice between everyone from Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris and maybe The Arbiter and Sarah Palmer. In co-op, the game would behave similarly to how it does in Halo 5 where the party leader is John-117 and everyone else picks whoever they wish. If there were to be only two players in the game, the leader would then pick the other two AI controlled team mates.
But yeah, this is just an idea. If it sucks, it sucks. If it doesn’t, then I’m happy. Either way, say what you wish about the idea.
I really like your idea, the only problem I see is the development of the history and the cutscenes… If 343 find a way to change the history and what happens depending of which characters you’re using, would create a great replay factor. They have the chance to make a great game with a great conclusion for what they’ve built in Halo 5, but my expectations are really low…

Really good idea bar where apparently Blue and Osiris are best buds. Lol, no.
