It’s well known that Bungie likes making off-shooter stories for the Halo trilogy to help you understand the big picture. (Halo 3 – ODST, Halo- REACH Now, I just finished reading Halo- Contact Harvest. This book explains first contact between Covenant and Humans and mostly talks about Sergent Johnsons efforts.
Does anyone think that 343i will make a prequel game called Halo- Harvest?
Maybe you would be able to play as Johnson and have a similar health system like ODST.
Comments, ideas?
well that was what halo wars was for
…or it could have you play as Spartan I’s! Sickkkkkkkk
I have always thought this. And i think they should add a game mode for it called something like “Strike” were you hold off wave after wave like firefight but there is an objective to it such as Grabbing a flag and bringing it to the base, or capturing hills, or planting bombs, etc. So its like one-sided matchmaking with A.I.s to slow you down.
> well that was what halo wars was for
Not really, it didn’t really have the very first attack, and it was an RTS. I think it would be more fun as a FPS
> …or it could have you play as Spartan I’s! Sickkkkkkkk
…He said a spartan I.
The original trilogy was much better than the offshoots. I’d rather stick to the trilogies…
> well that was what halo wars was for
^^not at all. Sure Halo Wars took place on Harvest (for the begining) but it was during the second battle of Harvest. When Humanity took it back from the Covenant.
I always wanted this. but it isnt going to happen. 343 said earlier on that they werent making any stories that “dont go anywhere”
And are focussing on chief and the big picture.
There is no real need. We know the outcome of the Covenant War, going back to fight them all over again would be boring IMO. I’m tired of fighting the Covenant and I know some of them will be fought in Halo 4, the reason for it is unknown and they will take a backseat to a completely new enemy anyways.

We all knew the outcome of Reach, and they still made Reach. We all knew the basic outcome of Mombassa and Earth, and they still made ODST.
I don’t see any harm in making the game. Hell, I’d buy it. Make it like ODST, and include all the Halo 4 maps.
Playing as Johnson would be the best. If we do I hope it sticks to the canon, while playing as a marine we get a marine HUD and marine attributes. Or maybe there could be two modes, one that shows Johnson as a bad -Yoink- on the level of a spartan, and one that is realistic and really hard where Johnson is how he should be - a marine.

There is no “Spartan I”. The Spartans started with the ORION project which genetically modified MANY soldiers to be better at combat. not nearly to the extent of spartans. BTW Sgt Johnson is the resulting badass from the ORION project. Dr Halsey simply called the Spartans Spartan IIs as a memory of the considered failed ORION project that helped her studies for the Spartans.

Johnson is a spartan-I o.o

How the hell are the covenant getting boring? That’s like saying I’m sick of humans being the main species in all out modern FPS’s. You wouldn’t want to play as Sgt. Johnson? He’d probably have hilarious dialogue to. Maybe it could be added as DLC for Spartan Ops?

Ummmmmmm… “The program was later dubbed the SPARTAN-I program under the Colonial Military Administration reboot”

That sounds incredibly familiar… OH I JUST REMEMBERED! Mass Effect 3!

That’s an idea.

Well im sorry dude but halo wars deserves a lot more credit then your given
For one harvest was the most fought for planet
You cant just show a war in a FPS dude
Were talkin about a battle with little spec opps like attacks
almost the entire war was on big battle zones with hundreds of soldiers on both sides.
In halo we only ever did Spec op missions
No game could handle a actual warzone and stay a sandbox shooter unless its a RTS\Maybe in the future but as of now I think Halo wars should have a little more
