Just wondering what everyone would want to see in Halo 6 and if you guys have any constructive criticism of halo 5 that might make halo 6 better.
My opinion…
The Gameplay
-
The most fun in video games, in my opinion comes from just simply outplaying your opponent. Honestly I think Halo 5 did a great job at this but it is still lacking. In Halo 5, there is not enough time to assess a situation in a fight and plan out a strategy or escape plan as a solo player. (much more so in big team battle due to lack of cover). I thought the thrusters were a great addition to Halo and although i’m not the biggest fan of sprint, I believe the current system for it is the best way to handle it. I would love to see the TTK (time to kill) go up in Halo 6 so spartans can last just a tad longer and not feel that the entire game is just running in, getting a kill, and dying as a new player. - The radar range also effects this as it is practically useless in arena currently just because spartans have so much mobility now. I believe the radar range should definitely increase especially since its the smallest it has been in any halo game.Campaign
-
The story was okay, but the map layouts were great. As I ran around the map I would find different ways to engage enemies that would give me an advantage. The biggest critique I have of the campaign is that, there shouldn’t be 3 entire levels where you just run around and talk to people. If there was a hub world that would be okay, but not actual levels devoted to talking to Halsey.
Cosmetics -
The cosmetics were great in Halo 5 but I would love to see weapons skins with attachments usable in arena (not effecting the gameplay of course). I would love to run around in Halo 6 with a bayonet on my rifle in arena even if it has no impact on gameplay. I think a great idea for this is to make weapon attachments in warzone have their own skins and add the ability to be used in arena but without affecting the damage or anything.
Warzone -
Personally, I would love to have warzone be more like Halo 4 where you can call down your req’s as ordnance drops and set loadouts before the game starts.
Req’s -
There are a lot. I could do with less Reqs if each one felt unique and different.
Splitscreen -
This one goes without saying… The thing that made Halo should be in Halo.
Brutes -
The Brutes were some of the best enemies in Halo and they should definitely have a triumphant return. At least the brute shot and spiker should.
Ultimately I just want Halo to be the best it can possibly be, and I hope some of these things are considered for Halo 6. Let me know what you guys think.
