award winning campaign

So! As all I see is negativity on this site, id like to make an attempt at creating a decent thread for decent ideas.

the campaign is where id like to focus. As much as I loved halo 4’s campaign, it lacked a lot of WOW moments, I didn’t get that sense of awe.

I would love to see current ideas expanded on, for example in some halos we have stealth/sniper levels. Except it always turns in to a shootout (which isn’t a problem) but with the right execution it could be changed for the better. Give people a real chance to use stealth, knives, silenced sniper rifles etc. It would change the gameplay and give more variety.

another example would be boss battles, if done right of course. Maybe a sword duel with arby as Locke? (if they fall out) where in the background Spartans and elites chant for their leader to cut the other down. (obviously just an idea dont hate)

story dlc!
I think this needs to happen, 3 years without an idea in to what our hero will do next…or even what our new “hero, anti hero” will be doing. Perhaps after the main game we can play as chief recalling his first set of missions…or meeting Cortana for the first time and learning to use her. (would fit in with losing Cortana in 4) and maybe have it play out like star wars rogue leader (or something like that) choosing where to send your guys etc.

what do you think! Sorry about any poorly made paragraphs, the phone I’m using makes it all look odd…

DLC… Ew.

agree no DLC for campaing.Anyway it would be good to fight a boss but I played all halos and 4 wasn’t that interesting i played halo ce the original and the game was really good i think they should make the game a little bit hard and better missions

I could see spin-offs or episodic content games about the back stories of the characters, but sticking it in DLC is big noooooooooooooo,

Story content that is essential to understanding the plot should never be a DLC (I’m looking at you, Mass Effect)

It’s the reason 343 decided against Spartan Ops Season 2 (They said it would have to be charged, and they didn’t want that) and I doubt they will do it now.

Personally, the campaign should be going into the 20-ish hour length, rather than thr 4-5 hour length we’ve been getting used to. A campaign the length of HAlo 2 or more would be ideal, especially considering the split campaign between John and Locke. As a great man once said, “Any game should be able to stand on it’s single player alone.”

Well, Zero Punctuation said that, anyway.

Start of by making the length of the Campaign longer than that of Halo 2 and having plenty of WOW moments in them, and they will be good to go. I mean I liked Halo 4’s campaign so I have no doubt that the actual story will be amazing.

The real question is, would Yahtzee call himself a “great man?”

No. He’d go on a little micro-tangent about how that term is overused and how he sees himself as nothing but a blubbering wart on the back of western society, the pinnacle of entitlement in the nanny state culture programmed into the universe, hiding behind the flimsiest facade of bad journalism the way a pyromaniac hides from the police on “national gasoline day,” so snobbish and overbearing that the sheer levels of smug erupting from his greasy nostrils will cause the stars themselves to cave in under the utter pretentiousness of he whole ordeal…

…and then he’d say, “Actually, that sounds pretty great, doesn’t it?”

Think Destiny needs to be in that category as well.
