Well I usually dont jump into conclusions, but by some videos I have seen and some talk I think the possibility of a new Halo game is not too far from being real.
It was confirmed years ago that Halo 3 would be the final game in that particular story arc, meaning it will remain a trilogy. Any future games will be released as separate entities, such as ODST and Reach.
It is my belief that Master Chiefâs storyline will be continued through some other medium.

That was confirmed by Bungie, yes?
i post this to begin the acummialtive blog/chat about what âwe the playerâ want to see halo 4 to be. all are welcome to post thier wishes about what âwe the playerâ want and donât want to see.
in light of all the b.s. about what will be halo 4. with some respect to 3 odst, multiple halo 4 should be considered. what i spew is b.s. and an unreal christmas list. i say we the player speak and make clear what we want! i for one would like to see a single game from multiple veiws. the chief (should they bring him back), odst, the remaining covenant (particulally arbitur), the reach team members (the miaâs should be just that for a game or two and play thier own roles until they regroup). i have not played reach yet but i read the blogs. i have high hopes for 4. what i donât want to see is a liniar game bouncing from one charicter to another (like 2) unless the focal point is in the veiw of one of the individuals or individuals from a group (an individual from the reach team, an individual from the odst, arbitur, chief and cortona.) if a liniar (like 2) is made, i would like to see it only surround the events in the path of the selected charicter in play! i.e⌠should i choose arbitor, the course of the game should only include the charicters involved in the arbitors path and not something with someone else in the halo multiverse. keep the charicter interaction on a planetary/bi-planetary level and in such a way that every charicter must be played to get the full scope of the game storyline. not every charicter should come in contact with each other for the purpose of having to play as every charicter in order to get a multiversal scope of the games storyline.

to semi quote a bungie programmer in âthe making of halo twoâ dvd, " sega has sonic, nintendo has mario, xbox has master chief." not verifying wether or not the chief is dead only means he is mia. making reach and giving the cheif a break was a novel approach. the cheif should not be killed and should be brought back even as a mia.

sucks if itâs true but, nothing is chipped in stone in the gaming industry unless legal issues are the blockade in question. i.e⌠toby kieth canât sing or reproduce any of his music from " shouldâve been a cowboy" because of leagalities with his manager back then. if he plays any of the music from that album, his old manager gets a rediculas cut from the album and the concert regaurding that song.
Yes, as 343i is recruiting mission designers.

with the best of luck, they will study the blog/chat forums and use thier conduits to the gamers from and within waypoint. fact is waypoint is the more dedicated chunk of the halo gamer community⌠ok, more opinion than fact.

we should all spill out our thoughts of what we want from the next halo. i can say personally from a game designer point of veiw, the more we converse the more the governing design group of the game (should they research their gamers input.) has to work with. bare in mind that our discussions are soley for our own entertainment because there is no saying these blogs will be researched.
i feel as if halo needs a fresh start something to bring it back so it does not fall behind other shooters i hope 343 and microsoft have big plans for the halo series but till then ill wait for the return of the MC

certainly so olm! but definitely in halo fashion! bungie/343i has been (from my point of view) the benchmark standard for all of todays shooters. there is no game that plays like halo. a fresh start would be good for the game. what kinda game or game play are you hoping for?
i canât be the only player who doesnât say " hey! wouldnât it be cool if this could happen in the game?" or âthe next game should lead off with this evenât because the last one ended this way.â or " why in the world canât i get more ammo for this?" or " why canât i pilot that?" what are your thoughts for the next game? dream big because weâre only limited to our imaginations. i know you got something to say because we all yammer about it from time to time.
truth be told this isnât the only forum thread i visit and comment in. i heard that reach doesnât have a dual wield option. if this is true, then the dual wield should be returned in the next game. so⌠i was thinking, chief can flip a tank, a 2-5 passenger vehichle, a quad, a small alien air craft⌠why not have him throw things too? like broken vehichles, dead enemy, expended non reloadable weapons, we had a small running joke in the service about weapons that run out of ammo. the joke was when we run out of ammo throw your magazines at the enemy and when you run out of mags break down your weapon and throw the weapon pieces at them next. it was a joke but iâm sure some alien tech is quite explosive when itâs removed from the weapon and tamperd with. how cool would it be to chuck a fallen hunter at a group of enemy just to break thier fire for a moment so you can get out there and take them down as theyâre re-orentating themselves? the hunters blaster should be useable as well. ever sence hce i wanted to use that beast of a cannon! lol!

of all places i found that simular discussion is being held in the thread titled forums/campaign/without breaking story canon what could the next halo be about? iâll be here on this thread and also forums/campaign/without breaking story canon what could the next halo be about? iâm in hopes these blogs are researced because the âgamerâ knows what we want.

Actually, bungie said that Halo 3 would be the last Halo game altogether when Halo 3 was just released. Here we are 3 games later. Yeah, there is no doubt that we will get a Halo 4. 343 has been hinting at it way too much.
Halo 4 (my idea):
The game begins with chief in Cryo, remembering teh days of Halo CE (in HD), after a the silent carthograper the dream end when cotrana awakes him. Sheâs just found another UNSC ship floating over teh planet/crashed on teh planet, The Spirit of Fire. While they land they also find Jorge and Linda (both trapped in slip space and spat out there) due to teh artifacts left by the Forerunners.
Now that would be epic 
Also, they include dedicated servers and 32 player big teams

that sounds like a great way to tie all of the events together.

i was doing some daydreaming at work the other day and i thought to myself âthe following halo games should have unlockable charicters achieved from game play.â it would be cool to play as a hunter (sided with the humans), one of the covenent elite (sided with the humans), an unsung spartain (maybe from the book series), some members of the commanding element, and the odst members in supporting lead with the chief and other playable charicters in the game. it would be an incentive to play as all the charicters in the game in order to achieve the unlockable charicters.
