New bosses in Warzone.

Don’t get me wrong I like Warzone as anyone else does. It’s just the boss fights that I don’t like as much. That’s because the reuse of bosses is just sad. On every map for war zone there is a wraith a banshee, a Covenant squad, a Promethean knight, the warden eternal, ghosts, and more. It’s just so dumb and plain there is no creativity in this there just reused. They should add more into it. It’s a simulation so they could add anything. They could have added Tartarus into war zone in the last update. They could add flood in another. Or they could even add rouge spartan squads into the boss fights. All of these things would make it much more interesting and fun for everyone.

I think that would take considerably more effort than they’re willing to put into a free update.

I’d like more variety of bosses as well, but I doubt 343 is going add in characters that weren’t in H5 (Brutes, Flood).

yeah

True but when you played flood in H4 you looked like a flood, but there weren’t flood in H4. There were also Gravity Hammers, but no Brutes

And there we’ve run into the crux of the problem, haven’t we?

I’d like to see a Tartarus sort of boss. Hell, just give an elite a metric whole bunch of shields and a gravity hammer and you’re halfway there.

You say that but they added three game modes. Two Warzone maps, and bosses specific too those two new maps, they added multiple arena maps (granted most of them are just remixes) So 343 would be able to make new bosses if they got of there lazy bums and did it.

I say add an element of randomization. That would freshen things up.

Making new models animation and AI is the issue . Takes more effort than copy and pasting an enemy I to the game with more health and a cool name

Or make the boss spawns random on every map.

Actually no it doesn’t. Firstly the can take the animation of a spartan swinging the hammer and use that for Tartarus, Then they take there model for Tartarus from H2A and use that update the look a bit and there you go a perfectly new boss. For flood you literally take any model of flood from Halo CE through 3 and use on of those, again update the look change the animations a bit and there you get Flood in Halo 5

That would be awesome because you don’t get all the same bosses on the same maps.

I think the difference is Infection and the hammer that’s now used for Grifball are game modes that been around for years so it’s natural to see them return in sequels whether they were in the current game or not.

Putting in new characters would probably cause a lot of speculation as where the Halo series was going unless 343 stated that WZ is going to feature bosses from all Halos and they were randomly selected.

I think it’d be a good idea to have a smaller, urban Warzone map based on an Insurrection invasion.

They could just reskin the Marines and the Miners from the Meridian missions and task bosses could be stolen UNSC vehicles like an ONI Scorpion or a Sniper Squad or something.

It’d be totally fresh to fight humans in Halo for once.

I like the idea of having spartan squad as a boss
Would be similar to fighting marines i guess
Just have like 4 of them or something , extended shields and power weapons such as lazers, rockets rail guns (that they can swap out for dmr or whatever, similar to current bosses like hydra soldier or elite zealot on apex 7)

maybe give them 25 points each and replace hunters?
or like 10 points each as just a solo spawn

I don’t think 343 will be adding flood into H5 because, and I may be completely wrong here, adding the gory, graphic depiction of the flood might cause the game to have to be rated M, which could cause a nightmare for 343.

I’ve heard rumors that the flood is the primary reason for Halo’s historical M rating. And to the beat of my knowledge, I know of no DLCs for a game that have required a more severe ESRB rating than the base game.

It would be a nice surprise if a scarab or the kraken dropped into the middle of the war zone :slight_smile:

Imagine if one of those dropped down in the middle and both teams could board and fight to destroy the core to get the boss kill

Gore? What are you talking about that’s only H2’s flood as for 3 and CE those were perfectly fine. And in my opinion all halo games deserved a Teen rating.

Yes I would love to see new bosses, I really get sick and tired of seeing the same bosses except Warden because thats understandable due to the fact it was explained in the disappointment of the Halo 5 campaign.
