I was surfing through halopedia (yes, I’m into a lot of the halo canon and lore), and I found THIS.
At first I thought, ok, that’s just reach’s seraph from the space battle mission in campaign. Then I took a closer look. Am I high? Or does it look more detailed? I didn’t see any label saying its from halo 4, but I think it is!
So you are probably thinking “so what? They were in a spartan ops cutscene, why should we care?”
I have reason to believe that there may be space battles coming our way in halo 4. Not necessarily mm, and although it would be cool, Spartans in seraphs vs spartans in broadswords doesn’t really appeal to me. But I was thinking more along the lines of a space mission in spartan ops. Like, an actual space mission with dogfights, not a Death Star trench run like in campaign.
Idk, I kinda wish 343i expanded on reach’s space battle concept. It was one of the parts I actually liked from reach. I’m just wondering why else would 343i throw a picture out on the halo wiki showing off their new seraph model when they only had it appear in one fraction of a cutscene from spartan ops?
Thoughts?
Edit: I can confirm the picture is from halo 4!
No if it was they would have made it part of their ad campaign.
Halo should have space battles though.
I don’t think there will be space battles in MM. Making new vehicles, whole new game type (programming), time. I don’t it would be well recieved either because when someone buys a halo game, they aren’t think of something like Star Wars Battlefront.
Halo doesn’t need space battles.
What it needs is to refine and polish what it has already got, though it’s welcome to have space battles added if they really sort their stuff out for H5.
Hell yeah they should.
In fact, they should do it like Battlefront, where you could board the enemy ship and destroy it, or win by extermination. (Giving both objective and slayer.) Not to mention all the epic dog fights you could have.
I’d love it if there were maps in space or on platforms in space where you’d have lower gravity. Certain AA’s would be very cool in low G as well.
Halo CE had a Multi Player map is space but it was really odd with no cover.
I’d love a few space battles missions in Spartan Ops! Would definitely pay for a new season, then. I’m more of a pilot than a soldier.
They’ve already structured levels that allowed us to pilot Pelicans and Broadswords (Midnight), why not design more levels utilizing that? Would be a waste not to.
Don’t give 343i any ideas please. They already needed 4 months to start fixing the issues with multiplayer. God who knows how long that updates with take if they focused on space battles.
Reach was gonna have multiplayer space battles D:

So many good ideas for Halo: Reach never made it into the final game

Seraph vs Sabre battle like in the campaign would have been epic.

Honestly, I haven’t seen a Space Battle-game in a long time. We need a little bit less of shooters and more of space battles.
If it happens, I just know they’re going to -Yoink- up the pacing and balancing.
The Reach space fight didn’t vary much across difficulties. You even had to deal with the long pause on Legendary difficulty.
What the hell happened to the trilogy’s innovation, where things would get really fast paced on higher difficulties (like on Truth and Reconciliation)?
Lazy developers…
Unless its’ like Ace Combat (which it wont be), then I wouldn’t really care for dogfighting in Halo. The second last segment of the H4 campaign was nice, but the Reach mission was just banshees in space.
