Aside from wishing they fix the game as we all want them to do: broken melee, adding collision and friendly fire. I thought it would be cool to share a list of things I’d like them to add to the game. I tried keeping it to things that aren’t currently in the works.

Save armor customization options into a custom “Armor Kit” for quick equip,

Remove the store tab and simply make items purchasable from the Armor Hall. The point of this is to pick and choose exactly what you want and have it available for purchase without having to wait for these godawful weekly rotations. Past and present armors should be made available.

Add camera mounts to Theater mode. I’d like to see the option to fix the camera to then end of the gun or on the hood of the warthog or over the shoulder but facing a direction and altitude you choose. Similar to how BFV had their spectator mode.

Option to turn off Spartan ID backdrops. None of them work for me.

Option to turn off silly skins and camos like MCC. Could have a default/random Spartan. Something to make the game feel more immersive, tactical and authentic halo, without all the effects and charms and camos.

Master chief armor. The only multiplayer game out right now where you can wear the chief Halo Infinite armor is Fortnite…FORTNITE. 343 touted Halo Infinite would be a Master Chief game yet, where is he?

Assassinations are coming but the priority should be higher. They are sorely missed. The game lacks so much content in terms of things to do, weapons, vehicles and maps. It’s like they decided to strip halo all the way down to 2007. As a result we’ve seen a massive player count decline.

Some sort of PVE story or challenge.

Complete removal of the challenge system. If it must be kept, morph it into the Halo Reach Commendation system. Wins, kills, objective scoring and you know…SKILL/TEAMWORK should be the primary way to rank up. Forcing players to play FAA or get a splatter kill does not encourage fun gameplay.

Add authentic halo armor, legacy armor and concept armor. It seems like the artists have lost their way and don’t know how to make actual Spartan armor anymore. Yeah the fracture stuff is cool for some people but where is the damn Halo armors that we grew up with? I’d like to see some halo wars 1&2 armor. Armor from Halo Legends or Halo Headhunters or Forward into dawn. The current sets have become over saturated with knockoff armors from various games or movies. Which again, can be cool but when they become the majority of the content released, halo loses its authenticity.

A playlist selector like MCC. Specifically choosing maps gamemodes and player count. We want doubles!

It would pretty cool to have a fracture theme map with the fractured events. Considering they spent 6moths creating two maps I’m sure this seems far fetched but they could get community maps. I only think if 343 is going to have the community do their job for them, compensating the creators with 343 swag is appropriate.

What do you guys wish to see brought to the game or changed?

Think about the lore implications before you decide that somehow Spartans in the field can use duct tape and bubble gum to craft canon sets of armor that is on-par with freaking Mjolnir.

“Canon” armor should be added to the game in one of two categories:

1: New parts for Mark VII

2: Bringing back cores from old games, with customization options from those games.

There’s really no reason you need to make other new cores. Like at all. When you run out of Mjolnir generations you can literally just do an ODST core, or any number of cores that were part of the GEN2 series in Halo 4 and 5. Because yes, every suit of armor in those games was basically its own core, Halo 5’s full body customization in particular made that perfectly clear.

Thinking about Lore in a game inching closer toward microtransactions is pointless. All they have to do is make things look good enough that a majority of the playerbase likes it and it’s already a sealed deal. People don’t care about a lore after that.

In fact, thinking about lore for cosmetics is stupid period. It’s just cosmetics, so why does it matter if it “doesn’t function like it looks”. You don’t see people winning the argument when Bikini Armor gives more defense than platemail do you?

I couldn’t help imagine Halo bikini armor. Yes, it would look ridiculous as it sounds, but I’d wear it out of sheer boredom.

But you’re wrong, the argument is being won there lol. There are less and less bikini armors in games these days. You know…woke. Haha.

But in all seriousness I do understand where you are coming from. Within limits. In fact the backlash is what caused them to do fracture events to include the stupid or silly armors. Again, cool and fun. But not halo. The fact that it’s the majority now is my only problem with it. I would have liked them to be EARNED like halo 3 and MCC but that went out the window when they decided to make it free to play.

I just wish we could get all the actual master chief armors, or the armors from halo wars. The ones that make your Spartan look they they are from halo and not titanfall or some knockoff from another universe. We should get more halo content first. The silly stuff should come last or at least be more infrequent if it can’t be hard earned.

I don’t think this would be as good an idea as you think. I get purchasing from the Armor Hall but I think
the store rotation should have everything from the season there in a bundle that would be cheaper than buying everything individually. But the bundles leave after a season.

These have been in every halo since Reach. I don’t see what the issue is.

Eh I like them off personally, hopefully there’s an on/off switch

The challenge system is a part of this games progression, I agree that a Halo Reach commendation system alongside extra XP for challenges would be good.

Something that specific would spread the player base too thin at this playercount, maybe a select mode option in the “Game list” menu (When you open a playlist it’s where you see the maps and modes in the playlist)

We do?

Other than what I commented on I agree with these things.

And more and more Costume systems that let you slap a Bikini Glamour/Transmorg over your current armor. Games are evolving to better cater to an increasing interest in ingame fashion and style, but people are still using archiac logic to argue against cosmetics with no gameplay benefits.

Who’s losing the argument here? People gotta accept the fact that how people look doesn’t affect their personal gameplay. It’s no better than saying it’s not fair cos a woman’s chest is distracting them and making them perform poorly.

And people rather mald that Rakshasa Core “shouldn’t have Shields”. SPI in H3 MCC right now is sweating.

They’re probably using materials from Banished assets to craft their armor, which would explain why its so strong.

I would much rather only pay for the things I want as the rest of the community has requested. Leave the store for people like you who want the bundles but either way it needs to change.

Halo infinite has more active players than MCC. Don’t hear any issues there regarding spread too thin.

Assassinations have always had an on off switch. It’s called don’t hold the melee button haha. But yeah no problem for a toggle.

And really? You had cat ears, bunny ears, pineapples as grenades, neon glowing helmets and Mohawks in reach? Cool.
No, seriously just because you can turn a blind eye and it doesn’t affect you doesn’t mean it doesn’t bother the thousands of true halo fans who want that authentic

Something else I wish they could fit in the game is duel wielding, thruster as a default, and more options for custom colors/stripes or camos. Thoughts on these?

Not to that effect but there were armor effects.
