So basically this is a thread intended to post the things that should not return to halo in future installments and to get the ball rolling how about 343’s mutant freaks…grunts and elites are shown the bus they need to be thrown under…
Next the storm rifle should be removed as it was already redundant. While it may not be as useless as it was in Halo 4 it still has no place in Halo, given its just an analogue of an AR like all the Promethean garbage from 4 was analogues of existing weapons.
The end of the tron like Forerunners, like 'em or hate them, they are inconsistent with the established Forerunner designs. Lets put a forerunner structure from CE-3 next to one from 4/5 you would be hard pressed in some cases to see the resemblance which is most cases is also nonexistent. My key thoughts out of the way…,343i(arguably incompetent) poorly thought through burn seats bit the dust from 4, so why not their detrimentally designed hogs as well… but anyway what are your thoughts on things that should never return like FOTUS or rather Yoink head armor…
REQ’s should never again see the light of day or the perpetrator of this heretical action must be metaphorically burned for this travesty against Halo…lol… but seriously the REQ system has damaged halo more than Armour abilities or sprint ever could.
The Stormrifle has its right to stay,its devastating against shields but not against flesh,while the suppresor is devastating against flesh but poor against shields.The AR is good against shield and flesh,but not as good as the stormrifle or the suppressor against shields/flesh.
It does so much damage and harm to Halo’s gameplay and is without any doubt the largest contributor to the breakaway from the “feel” of Halo’s gameplay.
Get rid of Grunts? C’mon now, we need our comic relief.
Well I don’t feel like making a huge list so just about every ability and most of the features in H4 should sum it up. Prometheans, H2 SMG, spartan charge, armor lock, and Reach’s sword block as well.
I want Spartan abilities to go…but we all know that’s most likely not going to happen. Also the art style needs to change, hoping it’s at least going to be like Halo Wars 2’s art style! Another thing, please do not have 200+ armor in the game. That’s is just ridiculous.
-spartan Abilities
-sprint
-microtransactions
-the new art style
-rotating playlists
-map remixes (seriously how many times am I going to need to relearn weapon placements?)
-ranking system that resets my rank every few months
They all make the game feel so foreign to me. Feel free to disagree with me if you must but I’ve not been happy with the direction the series has been going for a while now.
The entire req system, and all that it entails. I have lots of reasons for saying this, such as how unfriendly it is to new players, and how it incentivizes 343 to be sloppy with designing armor and visors because they need more to fill up the req pool… I could go on.
But sadly, whether it should return is a different question than whether it will return.
Definately the art style. When i first saw the trailer of Halo 5, it felt weird. I prefer the game to look realistic like the upcoming game, Anthem than plastic, “cartoony” looking. Of course, what’s most important is making players feel like they are playing a Halo game.
I’m fine with microtransactions so long as it doesn’t give a player an upperhand.

Its utterly redundant and not as cool or flexible as the plasma rifle 343 heretically replaced.
