Nothing says the future quite like a jet pack. Which is why when they where added to Halo: Reach I convulsed with glee. But, they are currently used so sparingly as to take all the fun away. Every Spartan should have an automatic built in jetpack function during story missions. Maybe not in multiplayer, but I’m not really worried about that. Jetpacks are the single coolest futuristic invention to every be conceived by a person that isn’t me. Jetpacks should be like sprint, a given.
Unless flying around, strafing enemies doesn’t sound fun to you. I can’t imagine a single situation jetpacks wouldn’t improve in real life or in the game. Maybe not the jungle patrols I went in Nam because of the trees. Anyway in gameplay, sniping, sword fighting, hammer whacking, would all be more fun. If all three Spartans are all in a warthog together they should be able to activate their jetpacks and lift the vehicle off the ground. Then you have a flying warthog. According to science this is possible. Also the stupid limit on how much you should use your jetpack should be lengthened. In fact, take the limit to jetpack usage off altogether.
If I am ever in office I will devote the taxpayer dollars to the further development of jetpack technology.
