I love HW 2, it’s an awesome fun game and the leader mechanics are really fantastic.
However we are having an overabundance of UNSC stuff. Don’t get me wrong, the HW 2 team and Halo team in general have done an amazing job of fleshing out the UNSC over the years, to the point that I have no idea where they can go next, since they have closed most of the holes in the UNSC inventory and arsenal.
The same cannot be said of the Covenant / Banished. Over the years we have had only a few additions to the Covenant / Banished arsenal, in fact HW 2 has gone the longest way towards giving us more Covenant / Banished equipment, with the introduction of 3 new Covenant Vehicles, the Marauder, the Reaver and the Blisterback.
However there are many holes in the Covenant inventory and arsenal that they haven’t addressed.
That being said, Kyntano has just been previewed as a new UNSC commander and she looks awesome, but it brings us back to the point I was making before, too much UNSC, too little Covenant / Banished.
So the question is simple.
Will we ever see a new Covenant / Banished commander? and if so, will it bring new units for the Covenant / Banished?
On a related note I would really like it if the Covenant got a proper Main Battle Tank, the Wraith is an awesome vehicle, but it is more of a siege / support vehicle than a proper MBT, same deal with a super heavy tank, like the Grizzly, the Covenant / Banished are way over due for them to have a true equivalent to the Scorpion.
