Looks like they are gonna focus more on chief in halo 6. I just hope the squad mechanic isn’t axed and blue team removed. Sounds like they might be from the article
I hope that they don’t cut it out ultimately. If they make it in a way that Blue Team is with us in some missions, and that we’re able to command them, while we’re on our own in other missions, then I’ll be down with that.
Good read. I was fine with the introduction of Osiris and squad mechanics, but it was heavily weighted on Locke. With any good campaign, you need balance.
thank you for the link haxor73
Glad to see that 343 is focusing more in our beloved hero MasterChief
I like the focus being on Chief, but I’d still like to see Blue/Red team somewhere even if they aren’t main characters.
I imagine they won’t ditch the squad mechanic. Probably just giving Chief more screen time.

I hope so, i’ve always wanted to play as a squad of spartans to play as in campaign and have blue team in the games so i’d hate to see that disappear after finally getting it.

Same, I wouldn’t mind some more expanded universe stuff too. Kinda like Reach, where you were one of the Spartans on the team. I’m guessing we won’t see that until this series is done though and maybe not even then.

See , this is a far more interesting idea for spin off games. I would love to play a rookie spartan fresh to blue team either taking orders from Chief or Fred instead of “being the man”. Would make a lot more sense for a rail shooter than a lone wolf following his own rules.
Funny how often his chosen path is a narrow corridor.
I know CE was far more open (mostly) but after that , BUNGIE and 343 have not taken to many chances with openness in Halo campaigns.
I’m just happy that 343 is finally listening to the fans. But, I hope that they don’t push Locke off to the wayside like they did with Jul’ Mdama. I know that people didn’t like Locke in Halo 5, but I believe that he still has some potential left in him. Look at Nightfall, if we have that amount of character development for him in Halo 6, I think that he and Chief can be equals or even rivals.
