It appears the game will be Chief alone (All Chief all the time, Aaron Greenberg). I liked having Blue Team and other characters in there. I hope I am misreading things. Perhaps there will at least be side missions with Blue Team.
Think most people didn’t like it, I did at parts. It’d be good to have a mixture but I guess we’ll still have to wait and see
“Side missions” in Halo…Sure, why not? Fast travel too, and fetch quests. Any settlements that need my help? Want me to go and collect a sweet roll from a cave?
I’m still holding onto to some hope they’ll be in and after a certain point you can have them with you the whole time or at least be given an option to have that be the case.

Forget Halo, can you fetch me a sweet roll in real life?

… or simply there is only one player so there is no reason to force other 3 spartans to be doing al the work for you.

Unfortunately, I don’t own the Elder Scrolls cook book. Suppose I could look up the recipe.

I just liked them and having them around. I thought it was fun. I hope they are still alive. I know Shadows of Reach has Blue Team.
I’m pretty disappointed that there isn’t a squad system. (That we haven’t seen so far) I truly loved finally having Blue Team in the game. And it’s gonna break my heart if 343 completely scraps them from ever being in a game.
I think that with all the negative feedback about Halo 5 mostly being Locke and not enough Chief 343 got more of the idea was scrap everyone but Chief. That may have been our own faults.
Having Blue Team was probably one of the best choices in Halo 5.
Should’ve come to Halo Infinite.

I’m not against the characters but I hated how I could just send them over and over, throwing bodies until I won and revive me like it was COD, when in the other games you were the one that had to play.
The squad system would’ve worked if they implemented a working order system. (for ai, not coop). An example they could have built on it 5 was Starwars republic commando, the squad commands, archaic now, but imagine if it was updated. A missed opportunity indeed.
Glad to be solo again though, die and go back, not just endless progression
I doubt we’ll see the squads return.
Whilst it wasn’t a bad mechanic by any means I think the story execution of it was poor. Blue team just showed up, same with Osiris.
With Infinite supposedly being a Chief centres story I think it’s wise to remove Blue Team and Osiris for the time being and get back to Chief, Cortana and The Banished.
Nah, halo is you and the Chief. Only buddy system you need.
Makes me wonder if they shouldn’t have the campaign be single player only with Operations that you can perform with Blue team members as a separate thing kind of like Halo 4’s Ops, but much better.
As much as I love Blue Team as a squad and everyone of them in particular,
the squad system was very flawed at best.
Even Star Wars Republic Commando back from '05 had a better working squad system.
I’d rather have them simply “accompany me” like Arbiter did in H3.
I have to agree though that I would be also very bummed if there were no words on Blue Team whereabouts.
I would be fine if they just came along and did their own thing. I kind of liked the way you could use them though. Give Linda a beam rifle and have her on the scaffolding shooting enemies and banshees. Vale was always a great gunner for me. Plus I love the chatter.
