As we know a lot of people are complaining about various features being taken out of Halo 5 such as the minimalistic armour customization, no UNSC flying vehicle (As far as we know) etc…
I believe 343 is trying to really focus on the game play of the game because realistically that’s what will keep fans for years after the years release, not whether I can customize my butt cheek armour. A work around for this issue would be add various additions and aspects of the game post release like a lot of PC games do (Such as TF2 adding it’s horde mode). We already know we will be getting free DLC which is already awesome (With the exception of REQ packs which can be earned in game anyway), here is some features and content they could apply after the game’s release.
Various Vehicle/Weapon additions
Now as we know we have the Warzone, now one aspect of the Warzone is that we can purchase Vehicles with our REQ points but once the vehicle is summoned we must wait until we get that Vehicle or Weapon’s card again through a REQ pack to use it again. One work around for the absence of UNSC flying vehicles is that they could add them as REQ cards post release or possibly add other vehicles in future forge environments post release. I honestly don’t see why the guys and gals at 343 couldn’t do something like this if the community wants it enough (343 has been very good with community feedback with Halo 5).
The Absence of Firefight, a solution
Now I personally love Warzone, it’s a perfect mix of Big Team Battle, Invasion and Firefight but one aspect that lets it down is that it’s online only (Which something the guys at 343 at Microsoft are aiming more towards after the absence of split screen in Halo 5). I would love them to add a variation of Firefight after release that is playable offline and would put the player with friendly AI that reappear after so many waves via Pelican (Just like the Firefight map 343 designed for Halo CEA), I would love this as it would give more for the player to do and because it does not use the REQ system it would allow people to play offline. It would use basic load outs and weapon drops. I don’t see why they couldn’t throw this in after release. It obviously wouldn’t be forgeable because bots wouldn’t work, the maps would be fairly small reminiscent of Halo 3 ODST.
Various Armour Added Overtime
Nuff said, I just want more armour to be added so I bump into less clones of myself in multiplayer.
These are just things I feel would be nice to add after the game’s release, it seems a bit late to suggest ideas for the game on release. Lemme know what you all think.
