I think it would be fun to play a Halo game that takes place during the beginning of the SPARTAN-II program. It would be interesting to have a hands-on approach to it, either with our own SPARTAN (like in Reach) who would die at the end of the game, or play as John-117 in his early years. Getting to go on all of the missions depicted in The Fall of Reach as well as others would be quite fun, especially getting to try out the first armour variants that they used before the Mark-IV. Would anyone else be interested in a game like that?
Yeah that would be fun! maybe a some missions where you fight some innies too!
Idk if I would like that. The game would be like a training module.
Why when the books do that just fine? It would be boring to go from the Reclaimer trilogy and it’s ancient evil to fighting rebels…

My thoughts exactly.
343 are trying to take Halo to new and exciting places. Having a game set during the insurection would be a step backwards.
Its like when people say the next Mass Effect should be about the First Contact War.
‘So you want to go from missive galaxy-wide Reaper extermination bonnanza to a few small ship to ship battles between Humans and Turians, that lasted a few days?’
A game set in the Spartan’s training days, eh?
It would just be six levels of ‘Please look at these lights.’
No thank you.
If there’s going to be another prequel game, it better well be Halo Wars 2…
I was thinking that it would be a short game, maybe shorter than ODST. It could be a preorder bonus or a legendary/limited edition exclusive for Halo 5 or 6.
Why would you have to be a Spartan?
What about Johnson, or Mendez, or even a brand new character?
I know! You could have an adventure game where you play as Halsey, studying genome traits and psychological histories to find the perfect Spartan candidates and kidnap them without being caught by the police! (just kidding)
I say we need a game were we play as Lieutenant Hood. The object of the game would be to shuffle papers around.
Yeah! And there would dialogue challenges where you have to choose the correct responses in order to maintain Hood’s gentlemanly yet authoritative appearance.
If there were a prequel, I would prefer it to be long before the Spartans, the UNSC, the Insurrection, etc.
Back during the Human-Forerunner wars, before the Humans were ‘reset’ and practically imprisoned on Earth under the Forerunner’s jurisdiction. That would be a great game. Of course they’d have to finish the Reclaimer Saga to answer questions about the Forerunners before diving into the past

This please 343i do this.
I would enjoy another prequel. One that takes place during the 1st covenant incursion. I haven’t read the books but it would be cool to see how master chief became the last of his kind. Sort of build upon the legend. I wouldn’t even mind not playing as master chief.

I’d prefer you play as a forerunner in the human-forerunner war then moves onto the forerunner-flood war

I would want to see something like this
I want a Halo prequel campaign taking place during the Human-Forerunner conflict in which you are offered two campaigns: One being the human side of the conflict, and the second being the forerunner side.
Basically two games in one. Multiplayer as a side dish, consisting of only Forerunner/Ancient Human weapons.
