I’m really going to miss Bubble Shields, and equipment in general if it’s not in H4. The Bubble Shield was epic in and of itself, and changing it in Reach was kind of annoying, because it was never in MP. I loved the fact that I could look up and throw the Bubble Shield a distance. Same thing with the Power Drain. It was awesome in Halo 3 when you could go off a lift on Narrows, throw a blue ball onto the middle part, and drain a bunch of enemies’ shields so that your team can clean it up. Anyone else agree here?
Equipment was a nice touch in Halo. You don’t spawn with it and everyone has the chance to get it but it throws a new level of gameplay in there.
It’s perfect in my opinion. It keeps the game unique, yet it also doesn’t effect the core gameplay of Halo. Plus, if they want to keep things changing in Halo, they can just make new equipment pieces.
