I thought I’d make an official Halo 6 wishlist thread so that we could all post here since there were multiple threads talking about it. So we can all talk about what we want for Halo 6 here just to keep things more orderly and hopefully 343 can get a lot of good ideas from this and make well needed changes for Halo 6. This here is my wishlist.
There are a lot of things that Halo 6 needs to be successful and put Halo back at the top of the FPS genre. If all these are in the game at launch, Halo 6 will be a huge hit. What Halo 6 needs to be a huge hit is
- Classic Artstyle(a mix of Halo 3 and Halo Reach’s artstyles. Basically how the art is in Halo Wars 2).
- Classic Gameplay(Halo 3’s where you have no sprint or abilities. You can pick up equipment and you have to try your best to control the map.)
- Dual Wielding(Only for Social Modes and Custom Games. Keep it out of Ranked since a lot of people didn’t like it for Ranked.)
- Halo Reach’s Armor Abilities and Loadouts(Only for Social Modes and Custom Games. You can make amazing unique game modes with them.)
- The 1 to 50 Ranking System from Halo 2 and 3(It was the best ranking system, it took the most skill, and it was a real accomplishment getting to Level 50).
- Halo 5’s Forge(but improved on)
- Weapon and Vehicle Variants(for example the Hannibal Scorpion and Nornfang)
- Playable Elites.
- Halo Reach’s Armor Customization.
- Halo Reach’s Firefight(with full customization and all it’s gametypes).
- Invasion.
- All gametypes Halo 3 and Halo Reach had at launch.
- Black Undersuits(or to take it a step further, customizable undersuits where you can make them any color. But they’ll be black in online multiplayer)
- A great campaign.
- Proximity Chat(It was so funny hearing your enemies talk when you were near them)
- Partying Up from Halo 3.
- The Funny Screams from Halo 3(I just love how funny they were. It’d be great if Halo 6 had some death screams so funny, you’d laugh your butt off like in Halo 3)
- Forge World(I really hope it does come back in Halo 6. To this day, the greatest Forge Canvas)
- Halo Reach’s Level of UI.
- Great maps on the level of Halos CE-3 and Halo Reach.
21: Offline Custom Games and Forge. - Custom Game Browser.
- Completely scrap Req Packs/Microtransactions. They don’t belong in Halo. I’d seriously rather have paid DLC that’s worth it like really good Map Packs.
- Vehicles from Halo Wars and Halo Wars 2. Maybe not in online multiplayer(depending on the map), but definitely for Forge and Custom Games.
- Halo Reach’s Armor Effects(Flaming Helmet, Inclement Weather, etc etc etc).
- Halo Reach’s Customizable Emblems.
- Bring back the Hornet and Falcon. They were amazing vehicles.
