Three Skull Ideas

I got three ideas for skulls, these ideas probably wont ever happen but I thought they were still cool/interesting enough to have a thread.

The first idea is to have two separate skulls, one that has a Left symbol in Forerunner text, and one that has a Right symbol in Forerunner text. You find the Left Skull first and chief picks it up in his left hand, leaving his weapons single handed. Then you find the Right Skull and when you pick it up chief will be dual-wielding skulls, it would unlock the Dual-Skulls which is like a 2 in 1 skull, and you will be able to dual-wield almost any weapons(perhaps even power weapons) with that skull pair on.

The second idea is also involving a dual-skull system. You must find the Dual-Skulls before finding these skulls. These skulls can be found in any order. I have not yet come up with a good name for these skulls so for now I’ll call them the Force Skulls. For lack of a better name, for now I’ll call this skull the Forceful Push skull. Using the trigger you can shout a powerful, and constant burst of force ahead of you, blowing all enemies and loose objects away. I’ll call the next skull Forceful Pull Skull, the opposite of Forceful Push Skull, it pulls everything in at you, but nothing small will hit you, small objects will go past you, if you get something big like a forklift you might kill your self. Together if you use one skull and then the other, for example Push and the Pull you’ll create a spinning push that pushes what you push through walls, and if an object or enemy touches the side of this spinning force they will get blown to the side in the air or at the ground depending on what side their on. If you press the trigger for Pull first then you can pull enemies and objects through walls toward you. The Force Skulls do not need to be dual wielded. Again that is the best name I could come up with for now. I did not get these ideas from StarWars, I got them from the leaked Halo 4 cut scene and Skyrim.

My final idea, again also involves dual-wielding. My second idea ties in to this one as well. Power Skulls. Again, you need the Dual-Wield Skulls first. Can come in pairs or on their own. The only other power skulls I could come up with are Magnet Bolt Skull, and Anti-Gravity Skull(inspired by MassEffect). The Magnet Bolt Skull shouts what looks like a lighting bolt that sucks in any objects or enemies close to the bolt. The Anti-Gravity Skull will put a glowing aura around whatever you shout, that shot object will then start to float. If these two skulls are shot at the same time it will create a mini black orb(also inspired by MassEffect) that you can move around with, the orb will sit about five meters in the air in front of you should you choose to carry it. Once you let go it will drift off. The orb will disable gravity in a 3 meter radius, and suck toward itself, until after about 10 seconds of being loose from its creator it will blow up. I’ll call this skull pair the Singularity Skulls.

These skulls are only for campaign.

I thought of these skulls based on what I thought would be cool, non canon features for a Halo game.

See if you can come up with some power skulls, or something completely different.

Thoughts??

Anyone??

Anyone at all??

:frowning: Anyone out there? I put a lot of thought in to this thread. :frowning:

I’ll toss in my 2 cents.
I actually really like the concept of the dual skulls and being able to dual wield, since multiplayer wont have dual wielding and I honestly mean it, I think it’s great.

As for the rest, I really don’t care much for, also the “force” skull idea sounds like a fus roh dah shout from skyrim haha!

Thanks for the 2 cents. :slight_smile:

This is a robbery! Put all your monies in the virtual bag and no one will be hurt!

Steals your 2 cents and runs off

Psst, you missed the actual 2 cents, you ran off with the mini-pancakes I made.

Darn! I like pancakes.

OT: Those skull ideas are great! Its definitely something creative that the 343i team should consider for future Halo games.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it’s already stated that duel wielding will not return in Halo 4.

Skulls aren’t abilities, nor do they occupy a separate button. This wont work.

They also said that skulls were scrapped sorry kid.

> Sorry to burst your bubble but it’s already stated that duel wielding will not return in Halo 4.

I already know that. The point of the Dual-Skulls is to make an exception.

> Skulls aren’t abilities, nor do they occupy a separate button. This wont work.

What you just said doesn’t really make any sense. I fully know what skulls are. In past games you could melee with skulls, if you pulled the trigger I think they fell out of your hand. Well instead of that make them do cool -Yoink-. I doubt all the buttons on the D-pad are being used so a left equip should be possible.

> They also said that skulls were scrapped sorry kid.

When the hell was this?? Can someone pleas verify this. This is just not right. Skulls are the iconic signature collectables of Halo.

I like the dual wielding idea but most of the others would make this into a FPS star wars game.

I think random hero was just joking around or being sarcastic. Probably. Maybe. I don’t know now. Someone please confirm!

The Dual-Skulls is the only one that is really like a regular campaign perk. The Power Skulls would require having the skulls in your hands to use them. I really tried to stay away from Star Wars in making these ideas. I got them from the Halo 4 leaked unfinished campaign cut scene, Skyrim, and Mass Effect and my own imagination, I tried to make them as original as possible.
