Hello! If you miss my first part, here’s a link. Read it!

PART 1 - https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/29568daf8cd14083bd1b70a810bf3581/topics/my-halo-infinite-wishlist-part-1---weapons/25c69e49-1654-4404-9579-4ccd443e78e9/posts

343 have great challenge ahead to balance the game. It is a tough challenge. And I respect that to 343. So I want to write my wish, idea, and feedback for Halo Infinite. I have played the technical preview. So I will leave some feedback. Each post is about Weapons, Equipment and Vehicles.

Why I write this? I feel that I wanted to write my kinda feedback and stuff that I want to get of my chest.

<strong>DISCLAIMER - This is my opinion, feedback, wish and some of my idea that I like to share with, please don’t take this personal. I will regularly edit this post to fix misspell. We don’t know much of Halo Infinite and haven’t seen all the weapons, equipment, enemy or vehicle that are in. Some of these stuff may already be in, or updated, and we haven’t yet seen it.</strong>
And sorry for my English, I’m still learning and working on my writing. Don’t hate me!

PART 2

EQUIPMENTS
This part is about equipments. And again, we haven’t seen all the equipment that are in Halo Infinite. Some of these stuff may already be in, or updated already. This is my Opinion, Feedback, Wish and some of my Idea that I like to share with.

The multiplayer side of Halo has always been fast momentum and the golden three things, grenade, weapon and melee. I think that Bungie wanted to experiment, and it changes Halo a lot.

Equipment have been absent in the Halo sandbox ever since Halo 3, and now they’re back in Halo Infinite.

Here are the Equipments that I wish and some idea that I like to see a return in Halo Infinite, and some Feedback for the equipments in the Technical preview.

JETPACKS:
Who does not like jetpack? I want jetpacks to return because it can be useful to get a higher vantage point, used as an escape and to attack the enemy from above. The Halo Reach Jetpack version was my favorite design. It also shows that if a player has equipped it. If the jetpack, return and as an equipment, it would have limit fuel and breaks apart when used up. Also, making it more unique, giving it the Halo 5 stabilize when ADS/Zoom.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo Reach jetpacks into the Halo Infinite. - Make the jetpack as a pickup equipment and limit fuel in Halo Infinite. When its is used up. The Jetpack will dismantle, gone or be destroyed - Add Halo 5 stabilizer when ADS/Zoom with the Jetpack in Halo Infinite - Using the stabilizer when ADS/Zoom will also take up fuel.
    THRUSTERS:
    The thruster is cool, and was great in Halo 5. And used as get out the jail card. With some people don’t like. It gave Halo 5 the fastest momentum and strafing tactic. Shywhy have talk in depth a lot of advanced movement with the thruster. My idea by making the thruster to an equipment, it would have 3 charged like grappling hook. Making you think how to use them. And if you don’t want to use thrusters to evade, then you can activate should charge when sprint when you have full speed like Halo 5. That’s my crazy idea. You will use up a charge if you use shoulder charge.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 5 Thruster into the Halo Infinite. - Make the Thruster as a pickup equipment and making it have limit charge in Halo Infinite - Add Halo 5 shoulder charge with the Thruster in Halo Infinite - Using the shoulder charge when you have full speed when sprinting will also use up a charge.
    HOLOGRAM:
    Halo Reach and Halo 4 had a hologram as armor ability, or some call them as decoy. They were fun to use. It can deceive and trick the player, also the Halo 4 Hologram -Yoink!-. I hope it’s in Halo Infinite, if it’s in then I hope it has made a big improvement. My idea would be that it send out three holograms running each direction and the hologram acts as bots. Good to use when you want to lose the enemy who chase you, or use in CTF. And use the hologram to -Yoink!- a body. To make a trap for the enemy.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 4 Hologram into Halo Infinite. - Make the Hologram as a pickup equipment and making it have limit of two charge use in Halo Infinite - Make three holograms, when the player is using the equipment. - All holograms run each direction and acts as bots. - Using the hologram will use up a charge.
    OVERSHIELD:
    It’s fun to use and good idea, making it equipment. Planing when to use it in heat of action, similar to Halo 3 Invincibility equipment. In the technical preview, it was hard to see if the bots were using the overshield

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Separate the overshield color from UI color settings. - Add the nostalgic overshield sound from Halo CE.
    DROP WALL:
    Good to lock down an area and give yourself additional cover. The shield can’t take much hit, I hope they improve it.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Buff the shield on drop wall. - Improve the speed of drop wall when deployed.

THREAT SENSOR:
The Threat Sensor, stick it to the walls, and allows you to see enemy position and locations through walls in a small radius, giving you valuable information. Stick it onto a teammate who have a grappling hook, and it’s UAV.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Make the Threat Sensor last longer when in use. - Make the sensor of threat sensor pulse, faster.
    TRIP MINES:
    There are times when trip mines, do wonderful things. And sometimes just doing nothing. I hope is back in infinite and made some new och big improvement. I like the idea if it could stick to walls or vehicle. Or even players?

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 3 Trip mines into Halo Infinite. - Make the Trip mines stick to walls, ground and players.
    POWER DRAIN:
    I do think the power drain is in, power drain weakens the shields and EMP immobilizes any nearby vehicles. We have seen shock grenades, and this is Brutes arsenal of equipment.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 3 Power drain into Halo Infinite. - Give the Power Drain a nice electric effect around the equipment and radius.

BUBBLE SHIELD:
The Bubble Shield in Halo 3 projects a translucent, protective sphere around the equipment. The shield itself is similar to a geodesic dome, made of hexagons. The shield protects against projectile and explosion. But vehicles, however, are still able to pass through it. I would add visible energy stream from the equipment when in use. So the player see where the shield is coming from and know what to destroy. A lot like Star Wars Battlefront Squad Shield. The shield will collapse, and the equipment be destroyed, after withstanding a certain amount of fire,

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 3 Bubble shield into Halo Infinite. - Change the color to blue, like Halo reach design, so it will not mistake for drop wall. - Add a visible energy stream from the equipment when in use. - Make it, so the shield will collapse, and the equipment be destroyed. After withstanding a certain amount of fire.

SMOKE SCREEN

I was thinking of Flare from Halo 3 first, but it’s just annoying and not making much impact. However, smokescreen can be very effective.
The Smoke Launcher can be used both offensively and defensively and ambush a player. It is great at breaking line-of-sight by deploying a smokescreen.
Two variant of design I think of. A ball like that roll and deploy smokescreen, or a launcher like Threat Sensor shoot and deploy smokescreen.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add equipment that deploy smokescreen. - Make the Smoke screen effective in PVE and PVP.
    REGENERATION FIELD:
    The Regeneration Field is available as an equipment and armor ability, it produces a spherical field of green energy, which rapidly restores the shield of anyone in its radius. And the field lasts for ten seconds before disappearing. The Halo 4 version had nice balance, while inside the field it makes the screen blurry.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 3 regeneration field into Halo Infinite. - Add the design and style from Halo 4 regeneration field. - Make it have a visible energy stream from the equipment when in use.

VORTEX:
Brian Jarrard and Tyson Green, revealed that there was a piece of equipment cut from Halo 3, known as The Vortex. It was said to same as a Power Drain, but would instead create a mini black hole that would suck in any object within range, It was even able to affect nearby objects such as the fusion coil and players. Yes, it’s sound fun to use,

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add the Halo 3 Vortex into Halo Infinite.ELECTRONIC JAMMER: (placeholder)
    Like the radar jammer, but it will interfere with the HUD, radar and crosshair. Make it seem like electronic interfering. It will also disable all people waypoint, outline inside the radius.

Feedback, wish and idea.

  • Add A Electronic interfering jammer into Halo Infinite.
    And that’s my list of equipments that I can think of, and my wish, feedbacks and some idea that I like to see a return to Halo Infinite.
    If you have read my previous post, I’m a big fan of Halo Reach style and design. The armor ability in Halo reach was fun when use, the Armor lock was to overpower, people hate it, some love it. And bringing it back can cause some mayhem.

Thank you for reading. I needed to write this of my chest to. (Yes, my English Grammar sucks. Don’t blame me.)
