Deleted content from previous Halo games that should be added to Halo 4

Below is a link to a video that shows deleted content that could’ve been in Halo 3 and Reach’s multiplayer.

The following is a list of things that were deleted
-Space Combat
-Watercraft Prototype
-Character Boarding
-Giants
-Global Battle (The most epic deleted content out of all)

You can blame Microsoft for rushing the release of Halo 3 instead of blaming Bungie.

I really want the global battle to be in Halo 4 matchmaking in a separate playlist.
Share your thoughts on Bungie’s decision to remove these contents.

I was about to post this.
I give you +1 internetz sir.

Wait
there was assassinations for hunters
WHO THOUGHT THAT NEEDED TO BE TAKEN OUT who ever it was has no brain.

REACH WAS A GLOBAL BATTLE why was’nt it added.

And Ridable animals were also a epic deleted thing.

ALso were elites going to be a bad guy in halo 3. because those were elites next to that giant brute right

This is what I have always wanted in a Halo Game… 343 PLEASE PLEASEPLEASE PLEEEASSEE Do this!

I want to see the BR from the Halo 2 E3 Demo, the one that was semi when zoomed, and burst unzoomed, That’s the only way I’d be happy to see the BR come back into a Halo game.

I can see the back of my head in this video! w00tz.

That video is a year old, how were you just about to post this :stuck_out_tongue:

i have never seen that before…wow Halo 3 would have been so much better if they left all of that (cept giants).

Correct me if im wrong, but isnt that a beta of reach on the h3 engine?

This footage is from an in-progress Reach, before they made all the engine updates. They were just playing around with concepts.

Dued, that watercraft made me sh*t bricks. I remember when I first saw this video, I died a little inside… How could Bungie just cut these awesome features? The giants were meh, and character boarding = assassinations, but beyond that, MultiPlayer space battles was a MUST, and yet they didn’t do it.

Sea combat seemed so GOOD. There was obviously some texturing left to do, but it seemed so fun, just riding the waves. Now, if only that thing had a turret and enemy banshees were flying around… It would be perfect. This seemed like the first game concept that captured the essense and power of the sea with the giant waves and all that.

Global battles for MM are also a good idea. Imagine a battle of 30 vs. 30 (UNSC vs. Covenant) players on line in that huge desert map where you get points similar to FireFight, exept you spend these points on one time vehicle/weapon purchases, and ALL the vehicles are available but the motherships (frigate, cruiser and all that). Sure, its unbalanced, but this is A SEPERATE GAME MODE, just for the fun… Just for fealing awesome… Of course there is skill-matching or it will suck. That would be extremely fun, and purely awesome. Imagine a battle where there is the flood aswell, and after being infected you go to the floods’ side and start infecting humans and covenant aliens. It will be like a 60 player version of slayer combined with infection… And then they could add forerunners! You could play as monitors and sentinals and your main objective is to defect the flood. As you proceed the extra long match you could get multiple objectives such as stealing an enemy data core, or planting a bomb, or destroying their generators and such. It would be the best unbalanced game mode EVER! Just for the fun…

Its never gonna happen though… :frowning:

343, take your time, take your money and don’t cut awesome features like this.

It’s funny they couldn’t do these concepts because the Reach engine is better than the 3 engine. They ain’t the same engine because while they didn’t start from scratch, no code was left untouched.

So that makes me think global battle was even more possible…with time. But Microsoft. BLARGH.

The Space battle is reminding me of Battlefront 3 :frowning: , I have said this on another thread but it would be great if on the Anniversary disc they had a bonus content section that allowed you 2 play the Halo 2 e3 Demo. That Global Battle would be great in Halo 4 Multiplayer it would be awesome! and i Highly Doubt they would release it with Anniversary

343 has a lot of Pandemic employees
They have a great experience

The Space battle:)

Thorn Beasts, Blind Wolves. The sense of exploration in Halo CE would’ve been bigger with more wildlife.

Also, E3 demo of Halo 2 New Mombasa.

Man, I hate it when people bring up this stuff. It makes me sad how epic Reach could’ve been with more “Global Battles”.

But I also would’ve loved character boarding, that would’ve been sweet!

I didn’t like that boat, it didn’t seem right for some reason. If they improved it and made the boat more of the future looking boat maybe.

Space Combat would have been so awesome…so awesome.

Um, “Character boarding” is still kind of there in reach, it’s just limited and it better known has the assassination move, it’s kind of like Warthog or ghost boarding, you jump on, you kill the guy, then you end the boarding.

altho I would love to see something like it for Hunters, but instead of punching, using your weapon to fire at the unprotected soft parts of the hunter.

Your wrong, all halo games run the same game engine with just upgrades added in each game (graphics, tags, ect…) =P
