What features do you guys want to see in Halo 5 Guardians Multiplayer/Forge/Custom Games/etc…? If you could ask for anything, what main feature(s) would you want to see in the next Halo game? I really want to hear your guys’ opinions, so leave your wishlists below and discuss why you think it’s an important feature.
Personally, since Halo 5 will be taking advantage of the Xbox One, I’d like to see bigger BTB lobbies. Instead of the usual 8v8 player lobbies, using the power of the Xbox One, I’m sure it could support something like 12v12, or even 16v16 player lobbies. That would enable 343i to utilize bigger sized maps, or possibly bigger vehicles…
Of course I could be wrong, and the Xbox One might not be able to support those massive lobby sizes, but leave your opinions and lists below so we can create a full wishlist that 343i may possible see in the future to consider!
16v16 matches would be the most badass playlist,nothing but chaos and vehicles everywhere you turn
Custom map playlist. It would work similar to Warcraft 3’s custom maps if you’ve ever played that.
Individuals would host games, on regular maps, or their forge maps with their custom settings.
Others would join a search lobby where they can type in a name, or search for a game type. Then a list of games would come available from others who are hosting those games.
Then you can choose which game to join and then wait for the host to start the game.
If a game or gametype/map becomes really popular 343 should create a server to always have that game hosting and it will start automatically.
This would eliminate the need of getting all your friends online to play a custom game because the community could join a game you’re hosting. It would be an amazing addition to this game!!
I thought up a list of things I want to see in the next games’s Multiplayer mode. It’s not much and a lot of things will probably be too far-fetched for 343i to actually achieve. But, just off the top of my head, the main things I really want to see in Halo 5 is;
Forge:
-
New Vehicles ( Pelican, Broadsword, Seraph, Phantom )- The ability to customize the size of building blocks- AI, so you can place enemies (or allies) in your maps, possibly even AI controlled vehicles- Terrain editor, the ability to raise and lower the terrain of a Forge Map- The ability to make your own Firefight match
Matchmaking:
-
Larger player lobbies for BTB (12 vs 12, 16 vs 16)- Space battles (Broadswords vs. Seraphs), similar to Star Wars BF2- Bring back the Invasion gametype Firefight:
-
Bring back Firefight!!!
