Will we see something like this in Halo 5? It really did look cool, it must be said…
I watched this yesterday lol!
I wouldn’t mind something like this for multiplayer, kind of like a much more advanced Invasion 2.0 or Big(er) team battle?
This is awesome.
Woow…Hunter assassination!!
Thats cool.
that would be hard since hunters are basically a lot worms yuck.
yeah have the invasion mode! but make the background and so on feel like you are in a giant battle and that the areas span kilometers and air vehicle would be essential for transport!
Imagine giant battles with drivable scarabs o.o

This is what they did with Halo Reach. The problem I see with the battles being so “close” is how shake that camera was. It looks really cool, but for gaming purposes, it wouldn’t be a wise decision. I think this is why most of the large-scale battles were in the background for Halo Reach: such up close action is higly impractical, even by current standards.
anybody played bf4 and remember the screen shaking? yeah it was horrible. but having battles taking close to you doesn’t haven’t to be impractical if implemented right. look at titanfall! yes its not a giant battle but it still makes the game feel more immersive. just have 343 build upon what respawn did!
What were those big giant menacing marshmellow things that appear around 1:45? Giant brutes?

i don’t know myself haha, the cool thing was that chief boarded him and beat the crap out of him just like he did with the prophet in h2

Beyond screwing around with morphing stuff I’m not sure what the point was either. It DOES remind of the giant brute in halo 4’s intro though.

No, it’s what they wanted to do but couldn’t pull off, like Halo 2’s E3 demo level.
On, and the shaky cam is obviously a deliberate mechanic that could be easily removed. It’s silly in the extreme to write off the entire concept because of it.
If it were done right and planned appropriately then I think it could be a pretty amazing thing to have. Imagine an Earth city getting completely hammered by Forerunner machines like London did in Mass Effect 3.
Now that would be cool.
It would be nice to see more Space combat and the sea vehicle.

remember the space mission in reach? what if they would have put that in multiplayer! a team has to battle banshees then destroy a carrier shields and then infiltrate it and destroy it. and suddenly jorge comes and picks you up and throw you off. TEH EDN

I don’t think we should completely rule out grand battles as epic as these, because of shaky cam. It can easily be minimized so that it wouldn’t be as annoying. Things like a Scarab landing nearby is understandable. The bigger picture is the scale and immersion of fighting in a war, and it shouldn’t be overlooked that easily. It can be done right

“EHHH EEEEEEEE EHHHHHHH EEEEEEEEEEEE AAAAAAAHHHHH;
EHHHHHHH EEEEEEEE EHHHHHHH EEEEEEEEE EHhhhh”
Then turn down the shaking…
Battlefront style invasion with lodouts and ordnance and stuff… space and ground and big maps… image that.
> Battlefront style invasion
Yes!
> lodouts and ordnance and stuff…
NO!
