First of all I think this game should have mod support. I want as many options as I can possibly have when making custom games and if I just dont like a certain aspect of the game, the freedom to change it would be appreciated. For example, Halo 5’s constant weapon tuning updates drastically changed the weapon balancing in a way that I didnt like, so if we had an option to alter damage and accuracy tables that would be really nice.
Secondly, I would really like a stronger emphasis on making an amazing campaign. I want to have the sense of grand exploration of mysterious places and huge environments. Halo 5 didnt have this at all. It would be cool to have to make our own way to an objective instead of just following a narrow path laid out for us. The narrative itself should also be great. PLEASE give us a high quality story with good character development between blue team and all the other characters. I’ve loved blue team since the Fall of Reach came out in 2001 and I want to see them fleshed out in a game.
PLEASE give us amazing AI. I want AI that are fun to fight and arent just bullet sponges on higher difficulties. Make the AI smarter, that way we can fight them in a more realistic way. The ability to forge AI would also be appreciated.
Could we have a new ballistics system? Like where we actually have projectiles fired from weaponry instead of hit scan weapons? It’s more realistic and it adds to the skill gap. It would also be cool if during campaign for example, Shooting an enemys armor in a certain area would only weaken the armor in that one area, as opposed to making the entire suit fail (like in halo 3). It would make fighting brutes, for example, much more fun. Also, maybe give us different kinds of ammunition that we can use, that produce different effects and are more effective against certain enemy types than others.
Amazing armor customization. Not just aesthetic, but it would be cool if the armor that we equip in campaign and firefight actually gave us different stats and abilities depending on what we put on. This would add another layer of gameplay.
No microtransactions. Please. If you give the fans a good game they will pay for it
