Cool aditions that would make an epic update

I’ve enjoyed every update with Halo 5 so far, but I think another 1 or 2 updates could really be great. For example, a Hannibal Wasp would be fun, adding in classic vehicles such as the Revenant from Halo: Reach or the Chopper from Halo 3 would be cool, too.
Everyone knows that the Forge team has done better than even the highest of expectations with each update, and I do see room for a couple of neat things that could really make Forge easier or expand what we can do.
For example, having an option for vehicles to spawn in damaged a certain amount. Another is a Phantom prop.(seeing as we have the Pelican…)
A blood or overgrown overlay for blocks could be cool for infection maps, a desert oriented collection of natural terrain and plant would be great, and a few more textures. I have read the news and watched the livestreams for each update I could, and I know the forge team does plan to add every req to forge and I look forward to that.
On the cosmetic side, I would love to have tertiary armor colors. On many armor variants, there is a white coloration that sometimes doesn’t look the greatest in combination with the already existing color combo people(like myself). This white coloration adds lovely detail, and I don’t want 343 to throw any of it away, I just wish I could change it from white to maybe a tan or a grey.
Further moving ahead, being able to change arms, torsos, and legs at the least would be cool. We would still receive an entire set of armor every time we got a body piece when we open a req pack, but the option to change out above things with each other would be nice for at least Halo 6, if 343 can’t in an update or two.
If anyone has any cool ideas, or any cooler way of making changes above work, feel free to post your ideas below.

I also think that a certain set or two of armor would be nice to have
EOD and GRD anyone?

  • Co-op Campaign Matchmaking - Games from previous Halo titles (Juggernaut, King of the Hill, etc.) - A Social Matchmaking section, separate from Arena and Warzone, with unranked playlists and no recorded stats - Competent, realistic AI that makes you feel as if you’re fighting another being (applied to AI allies in campaign as well) - A classic, survival-based Firefight mode - A bottle of real maple syrup

All great ideas, especially the last one.
But as far as making smarter AIs, I think they should be based off player behaviors, and maybe a bit of them trying to cover their weakspots.
An even cooler idea for AI is adding a ‘Mythic’ difficulty. It would be programmed off of all data gathered in Warzone in general, adding much more intelligence to every individual enemy enough intelligence that you might as well as be fighting against the top 100 or so Warzone players. I also feel that each AI should have enough intelligence on Mythic to pick up more powerful weapons, for example, a soldier picking up a dropped req variant of its current weapon.

Brutes, the game needs Brutes. A Brute Chieftain would make a very annoying boss, especially one with the Tarturus’ Gavel

I do miss those jerks… They were fun to pick on in Reach’s Firefight.

Well I think - -hack hack–cough Cough-wheeze… I’m sorry what was I saying? I can’t remember…

Theese ideas are really good! i would personally like it so you can be a elite and stuff in-game. even if its only in custom that will be fun.

Because 343 seems hell-bent on forgetting them.

Why would forget about hem after making armor for Elites for Halo 2A MP

A thread with a great idea as its topic: There should be other wasps. Its operated by strikerjames21
(by the way could anyone tell me how to do links… I see the option for adding one, but I’m not sure how to lead it to other forum posts or change the text of the link and have it go to the desired destination)

They did that only because it was H2A. Because if they weren’t in the game it wouldn’t be halo 2. They will only do it for the anniversary games. Other than that they want to lock them in a box and throw it into a volcano.

You can’t link until your forum rank is marine.

  • Medium,and large Studio Arena maps… - Forge maps in Arena… - BR starts maybe…Vetoable maps and gamemodes in the playlists. - Flaming helmets. - Civilian vehicles in forge. - Ricochet,Oddball,Stockpile,King of the hill,and Race game modes… - More armor… - Gamertags being moved to the right side of the screen that are highlightable GTs mutable mics viewable service record etc…corresponding colors on the scoreboard…emblems on armor placeable on different areas of the armor.

and as for flaming helmets, I do miss that from Reach. If only we had helmet effects back…

My thoughts exactly. Rhydon65, you’re the cool addition.

An update where the servers wouldn’t drop players like flies after its implementation! How about that?!

I’m not sure if everyone has heard about the Halo panel at RTX, but in case you haven’t-
343 has announced file browsers, and as far as Forge goes(for those of us who enjoy it)- Forge object groups.
So File browser is self explanatory but as for Forge object groups, lets give an example.
Let’s say you want to create a covenant watch tower, but you can’t just get it right even after so many tutorial videos. Forge object groups will allow you to copy and paste the covenant watch tower between maps, so it can be taken from Tidal to Glacier to Alpine to Parallax. Its on its way this fall so while there will be a wait, the wait is worth it.

I personally will enjoy this feature as I’ve been trying to work on certain features in a couple of maps, though they aren’t ready yet, and once they are, Forge object groups will be nice for people to use.

Anyways, as I do have an idea, here it is

A minigames playlist where certain minigames like Outbreak City are put into matchmaking and upon a certain minigame map being selected, its gametype is also used. Not too much work is needed, but this would be fun for people like myself who don’t have many friends playing Halo 5.

What I think would also make a good addition to this game
changeable HUD color
Random ordinance drops for WZFF. Seriously some rounds do not make any sense… and some weapon support would be nice.
Semi/Full armor customization
Classic weapons and vehicles for funsies. Seriously they brought the H2 beam rifle… so why not the Reach/CEA/H2A sniper rifle.
