Hi BS Angel & 343, today I got some great ideas that will keep Halo a great game.
I would love to hear & see the original Halo theme song back & here’s the twist that will make it perfect, don’t ever take it out of an Halo game ever again because it is a Franchise Theme song that define not only the Game but the whole new genre when it first came out, of course it may have a little difference or flavour to it with added instruments or melodies but the theme song should always stay the same as it always has been, a Gregorian, Epic & Ancient Halo theme song with the gregorian choir singing (Ohh oh oooh oh ohh oh ohhh ooohhh… you get the idea here, Periode). Please don’t make the same mistake as Marthy did even though I greatly Respect Marthy’s work & Masterpiece Halo theme song, but I think he should not have taken out the original theme song of an Halo game, Please 343, don’t make that same mistake ever again. Also I would loooooove to see multiple dedicated Halo songs in Halo 4 specially in the Campaign (with different music style like rap, r&b, soul, blues & jazz, pop, rock etc…) just like in halo 2 with the song ‘‘Blow Me Away!’’
I would love to be able to create Forge pieces from scratch and put it in my greatly augmented file share and even be able to search in the Halo game new & popular community Forge pieces for my own maps & piece of art. I would love to see halowaypoint included in Halo 4 where I can navigate throught all of halowaypoint features, stats about my profile, my friends profile & others and even be able to watch videos, read & post in the forums and even download & rate maps from the community & even leave that map my comments on how they can improve their map or creations, I would like also that you guys at 343 have a guide line on different maps size, like what should be in the map and what shoudn’t, which vehicle should I put in or weapons, grenades, equipments, AAs, etc… and also what you guys would want strickly for matchmaking in any playlist and even have a weekly challenge where the community could send you their best maps so you could select the best 25 out of them so you could put them in a special playlist like Maption Sac where each week the is new content with the top 5 of last week so that players may have the chance to download them and even have a chance to have their maps featured in MM with a classic Halo 3 slayer on that playlist, 7 on 7!
I would like to have multiple grenade type in my HUD not just Frag & Stickies like in Reach, and that why Reach in my opinion it was not as great as Halo 3 because Reach did not have as much varieties as Halo 3, so I would love to see all the grenades types of Halo 3 with much more grenades, like at least three types of grenade per race, please! I would love to see the needle have the same tracking system as in Halo 3 but here’s the twist that will make it perfect, it should have the same amount of amno as in Reach, please in the Campaign of Halo 4 bring back Chief & Cortana duo & put Arbiter & his Elites seperate for this Campaign & perhaps bring them back together at the end, also I can’t stress that enough on how I would like to be able to switch AAs with fallen comrades or ennemies, and I belive that was why Reach sucked, it would have been so much fun to be able to switch AAs with fallen comrades.
And I can’t stress that enough also, how much I want customisable guns, weapons, AAs, equipments, vehicles, grenades, etc… and customise colors for each one of them, that would be a game changer a whole lot like C.O.D. MW3 where the player could switch between scopes on one gun for different scenarios or even sicker be able to customise the inner part of the gun just like in the E3 2011 presentation trailer of Ghost Recon Future Soldier, I would love to have all those options in all the above, vehicles, guns, grenades, AAs, etc… Also I would like to see grunts be able to hold a gun with two hands for more accurracy in their shots and be able use the plasma riffle like old times and even, and thats for all A.I. characters be able to grab better weapons that rest on the floor for combat and instantly have better intelligence when they pick that leading weapon. I would like also to see A.I. characters be able to dual weild weapons and have great combination of weapons and even be able to get better combinations of weapons depending on the situation they are at.
I would love to see all plasma weapons & grenade have a whole lot more electricity to them where the more you shoot them the more there is a long trail of electricity that last more & more longer in the front of the gun like 7 to 8 inches in front just like human weapons have a trail of smoke coming out the front of the gun when firing.
Also I had this great idea for the forums, I would like the see the ranking system as a mix of Reach & Halo 3 applied to the forums where the more experience point you get the more you could rank up but at every game changer or an idea which defines & innovate the genre you rank up if you have enough exp. point just like in Halo 3, where not all replies in the forums will give you an experience point, here’s the twist that will make it awesome, please make a good idea worth 1 exp. point, a great idea worth 3 exp. point, an innovation to the game is 5 exp. points, a game changer is worth 7 exp. point plus a rank up bonus and an idea which define & innovate the genre is worth 15 exp. points plus a rank up bonus plus a jackpot of 500 points, that would push people to give you guys some super awesome ideas where the ranks would start from recruit to Inheritor at 25 000 points just like in Reach.
Thanks BS Angel & 343 for listening to me and don’t forget to read all my previous entries in this thread, and keep up the good work & Long Live Halo! X-)
