Some Ideas for Halo 6

Community Halo Universe

So Halo 6 is coming out eventually and while that’s on the mind I have thought of some ideas on what could be in the new game.

1: not only playable elites but also other playable factions too: see we only fight as a spartan or sometimes a elites, but I was thinking what if we could choose what faction we want to be? You could still choose to be a member of the UNSC but and the Sanghelis, but what if you wanted to say he a member of the flood? Member of the covenant, and or a member of the forerunners? Some might think this might break the game but if you think about it, it could possibly work. Like maybe making a new form of flood and forerunner that can take as much damage as a elite and spartan can. I think it would give more of a variety on the customizations.

2: a campaign about your character: one of the reasons I loved Halo Reach was the fact you were able to play as your own spartan. I loved that idea a lot and I know it kinda happened again with Spartan Ops but you know how that was, I was kinda hoping they could make a campaign based on the member of faction you choose, like if you were a spartan you would do a UNSC campaign, Elites could possibly be alittle the same since they are allies or it could be alittle different, or go on a flood campaign as a flood form and your able to go infect the other factions and such. And forerunners going to do a forerunner campaign, and this again gives more variety to the game.

3: creating your own armor or at least bringing in a lot of new or old armor to customize: it is nice to wear different types of armor, but I was thinking what about being able to create your own armor set? Maybe this could be a one time thing or something but creating your own unique set of armor would be pretty cool in my opinion. If elites and other faction members make it in the 6th game I do hope they will let you customize freely like with reach, and not only to Spartans but to other characters as well.

These are a few ideas I been thinking of for halo 6 infinite. It would be nice if 343 were able to see these ideas but you guys can say what you think about them. Let me know in the comments what you think of these ideas. :slight_smile:

Sounds good, I reckon 343 will try to go for some of these!

Creating your own armor sounds like a really good idea

I like the idea of playing as your own character in campaign, but keep in mind that was only available in Reach which was a spinoff. The mainline games have always (supposedly, in the case of 5) focused on Chief which is why we never got the chance to play with different armor sets. I don’t think these ideas would be implemented in Infinite since 343i is going to make the game as much about Chief as possible, but I’d love to see something like this in a future spinoff if they decide to make one.

I like the ideas, but have a different approach to the context.
Rather than seeing these in a main-line FPS Halo game, I’d like to see a side game that’s an open-world adventure, where you play a non-Spartan, mid-level crewman on a ship that crashes onto a malfunctioning Forerunner Shield World. You’d have much more freedom to make your character exactly how you want it to be, and on the surface of an isolated shield world with blocked communications, your decisions can affect the whole planet, without affecting anything off-world, meaning the developers don’t have to declare any decisions made by the player to be canon or non-canon, because they won’t affect any other games or novels.

Ideally I’d like to see 343 license this game out to a developer that specializes in this type of game who’d do it really well, because that would likely get us the best quality game, and would keep the most possible resources at 343 available for Halo 6 to make it the best game they can make it. We’d effectively have two full games being worked on simultaneously, but most importantly, both would have the full attention of their developers.
