One way to add on Halo’s simple but complex sandbox is to make weapon effects more active. How do i mean?
Plasma weapons would set unshielded enemies on fire. It’s superheated gas.
Bullets fired at an unshielded target would spark off, making a killer light effect and possibly scattering ricochets away from the target.
Shields should slough off when shot at, appearing like they’re actually trying to hold together under hails of fire.
Other ideas? I’m asking YOU.
