Hey guys,
I know Halo 5 is being gracious with free DLC maps but I still haven’t heard anything in terms of paid for DLC if there were to be any. Any thoughts on what people would like as a paid DLC? I don’t care what is said as an idea even if it is considered impossible or improbable at the moment.
For example; I would like a story type DLC.
- Maybe a mini campaign by playing as the arbiter and 3 other elites (for the whole Coop play style of halo 5)
- Spartan ops season 2
- Maybe even a follow up to ODST to explain how Buck became a Spartan.
Just a few imaginative ideas. Like I said doesn’t need to be possible. Just fun thoughts of what would be amazing paid DLC should they ever do it. I’m sure there are plenty more ideas whether it is story driven, multiplayer whatever, anyway share your thoughts!
If you want to know how Buck became a Spartan, there is Halo: New Blood. Otherwise, I’d love some campaign DLC to bridge Halo 5 with Halo 6 or a spin-off.
Any story related campaign and/or firefight support.
Flood DLC
-1 flood themed arena map
-1 warzone map with flood bosses
-story missions
-flood themed forge items
Would be cool to see the same done for the brutes as well, maybe incorporate their weapons and vehicles into warzone

Flood commando that works directly under the Gravemind and this story dlc would be you as the commando with rebuilding the flood and fighting plenty of UNSC and Elite forces. Lol I wish… getting a whole different perspective on the flood but its unlikely to have any flood related things other than infection.

I’ll give it a read, but gameplay wise I think it would be a cool tale. I suppose Spartan Ops for halo 4 did that for halo 5, acting as a bit of a bridge. It would be a nice change to have extended story dlc.

Anything is welcomed. You never know, if 343 see some unique idea’s they may be tempted to do such a thing, even if it means for the next instalment.
Story missions will be cool if you had the gravemind as a final boss.
It would be awesome if they somehow gave the ability to players to build firefight games, or warzone, in forge.
Some short, standalone DLC Campaigns with around 4 missions (each following a new squad of 4) would be amazing. The Halo Universe is just as vast as it is deep, and this could be a great way to explore it. Some ideas:
- The most obvious one is the Arbiter and a squad of Elites in Sanghelios. It also makes soooo much sense considering the game explores it from an external perspective and since Elite fans who didn’t get what they want in Multiplayer would love it.
- a Flood story from the Halo 3 era. Perhaps you play a squad of ODSTs (so no Spartan traits) in an overrun colony. It could have some serious horror elements.
- a sequel to the main game to set the stage for Halo 6 (but not something you HAVE to play).
Other than DLC Campaigns, I’d love to see a dedicated co-op mode. Maybe like ODST’s Firefight, where you can pick which character you want to play (ie Linda, John, Locke, and DLC characters for people who buy Campaign DLC).
paid DLC no thanks, the whole reason for free DLC is to not divide the community into “have’s and have nots”
as for more DLC i’d like to see, Spartan ops (you know because war games are “training” sims I’d like to actually put that training to use in missions) its a good way to bridge campaigns for people who don’t like/care about the EU fiction. maybe add fire fight to war games as DLC
The Truth might make you Regret it, but I’m not going to show any Mercy with the way I say it.
LolNo paid campaign or arena dlc thanks. If they have paid dlc, keep it for stuff like Warzone or cosmetic. I hate it when maps (IK they are free in H5) or guns are locked off as dlc only.

I don’t like paid stuff when it is for cosmetic items. Because your paying real world money for little items that are usually unlocked in game.
What I mean is decent size DLC though, I doubt they’d give an entire extended story campaign for free. I wish games would go in the direction like the witcher or skyrim. Huge fulfilling games then they release big DLC for fans.

That’s why I said story driven paid DLC so it doesn’t divide the community.
That’s why Spartan ops, firefight, or something like it like you said would be good as a paid for DLC.
i want the new forge to be 100% editable. like changing the time of day, type of ground and maybe be able to create your own little missions with AI and objectives
and if they added that then u could download textures for landscape and AI’s

I’d hope that to be with the base game as opposed to DLC. But I’d certainly want exactly all that, I mean most of us expect forge to offer at least some of that, but we won’t know till we get details.
Okay, hear me out here. I would love campaign DLC and totally pay for it. I love the idea of a small campaign with the Arbiter and a squad of Elites. However, how amazing would it be if we got an anniversary of Halo 3 with updated graphics and the co-op/squad system of Halo 5? I would love that sort of gameplay with MC, Arbiter, Usze, and N’tho, especially after having just read Hunters in the Dark. I know its a far-fetched, not-going-to-happen idea, but I think that would be amazing. I’d also love a Spartan Ops Season 2, a unique campaign where you were Crimson again with your friends, or maybe a campaign where you played as Fireteam Majestic. Lead by Thorne, with Rey, etc.
spartan sandbox? like spartan ops but open world. In other words what Destiny should have been from the beginning but done by 343 minus the mindless grind?
if not that a tactical spin off ala crysis where you can complete objective through stealth or brute force
if not a TPS survival horror spin off

I love the sound of all of that. Spartan ops season 2 implementing the squad mechanics sounds like a good idea. But yeah I like all those ideas 
For paid DLC I would think they would or have to at least put a lot more effort into them as in like map features and design maybe resembling more to one of the more fan favorite Halo map from previous games.
My final thoughts on paid DLC are pretty simple really, it`s got to have that worth for your hard earned money or parent earned money ;D

My thoughts exactly, I love that the 15 dlc maps are free to avoid a divide in fanbase. But if there were any paid DLC I’d assume it would be worth the money and extensive
