I would like to see more armor customization options, armor choices, and more objects in Forge to work with. It would also be nice to have the option for the texture on a wall, for example. Perhaps a working door with a button or just automatic. I think you understand where I’m getting at.
I would like to have the emblems and abilities that we had in Halo: 3. For example, the snake emblem and the ability to have four people in Theater Mode when watching a full film. Maybe even film clips. Also, the ability to promote someone to the party leader in-game. I don’t know why some of this stuff was taken out. When you recommend files to your friends, I would like to choose who to recommend it to, with the option of recommend to all, and have an option to make it a message (like in Halo: 3) or the option to just put it in their recommended section.
I love the Credit System idea. That should definetly be kept. Of course, with a few upgrades and touches it can even be better.
Bloom was a good idea and it worked well, but personally, I enjoy the game a lot more without it. Not to mention armor lock. In Halo: 4, we should not have armor lock IN MATCHMAKING, but in Custom Games it should be an option. I mean, why not? We should also bring back the Covenant sniper (Beam Rifle). It would be weird to have a DMR and a Battle Rifle in the same game. And I think we all know which one will be chosen for keeps… In Halo: 3 the Assault Rifle seemed a little wimpy. I thing it should be upgraded to make a meaner sound. I didn’t like the Halo: 3 Magnum. Let’s just keep Reach’s. I can actually rely on it.
One thing I really loved about Halo: Reach were the cutscenes. I loved the fact that that was me in the cutscene. Not me playing like someone else. Sure, I love playing as Master Chief, but I also love the other feeling. Seeing my own Spartan in my armor was awesome. I would just love to see a special campaign, co-op feature, or anything just for your Spartan. Like a short second campaign to the game or something like that. Maybe a DLC? I guess we’ll see.
Anyway, those are my main requests for Halo: 4. What are yours?
> 1. No AAs.
> 2. No Bloom
> 3. Bring back the Halo 2/3 style vehicle system.
> 4. Ranked and Social Playlists.
> 5. An actual ranking system.
> 6. Original, good maps.
Yes, I agree with all of this! Especially #6. That is something Reach lack, and hopefully Halo 4 will make up for it.

I agree with all those especially 3-6. To be fair to bungie reaches actual maps werent bad. its just that there were only like 6 maybe 7 of them and a bunch of terrible forge maps.

To be double fair, there were a lot of good Forge maps hidden in the sea of not-so-great ones.

i dont think any off the ones that came with the game were good. pinnacle, and hemorage were ok the rest were -Yoink-. And thats beside the point they were all like 1 map. they all have the same boring scenory and the same boring colors/structures … crap.
My request id that 343inds. does their best. They are heavily vested in the series and it’s success. I truly hope they do not fall prey to looking at other games. Just look at Halo and what has worked and what hasn’t. Be creative while keeping to the core principle of the game we love. I have faith.
My request is to take nothing from Halo: Reach except assassinations and the reload animation. Also, I request an amazing story. It’s clear that all Bungie cared about with Reach was multiplayer (which they still epically failed at). So, I’d like 343 to make the story/campaign TOP priority.
Battle Rifle (Sorry, but the DMR doesn’t feel the same)
Tweak AA’s/Equipment 4*. Allow for a second by second rewind in theater, not sure why it wasn’t in Reach
Bring back the Brute Shot and the Covenant Sniper
Ship Classic favorites with the disk (Blood Gulch, Sidewinder, Valhalla, etc.) 7*. Add a hue/texture editor into Forge, grey gets old…

11*. More Armor
12*. Tweak the color/emblem system

15*. More DLC (Gears is getting like 4 DLC’s in a year, COD had like 3 DLC’s or so with quite a few MP maps. Reach only had 2 consisting of 5 MP maps, and now they are combined into one lobby. I would rather have 3-4 maps per DLC and separate lobbies so I can play a variety of gametypes on the maps I enjoy). 16*. Greater integration with Waypoint/more unlockables.
17*. Hayabusa Armor/Unlockable armor based off doing something in the Campaign/Multiplayer (Ex. Unlock EVA Helmet by getting 100 Wheelmen, Unlock Scout helmet by getting 100 kills with the Sniper rifle/etc.)
More Kneegaurds, I am actually suprised by how quick I notice people’s knees.

27*. A few exceedingly large maps; Hemorrhage, Boneyard, Breakpoint and Highlands are awesome. Lets keep up the great work.
28*. A Firefight VERSUS playlist, that was awesome.
29*. Flood in Firfight 30*. Customizable Elite Armor/Covenant Armory
31*. When 1000/1000 Gamerscore is achieved give me something like in H3.
People who play the Ranked playlists get shown a 1-50 depending on the Ranked playlist. Ranks are not visible in Social playlists.
ODST Weapons? The silenced SMG’s were great and the Pistol was amazing.
