We need a game changer for the final update

Now what I’m talking about is something to help Halo 5 just a little, I’m talking something that could potentially bring back a lot of casual players, to help increase the population, even if it is short lived. We need custom game settings that would put Reach to shame, right now custom game settings aren’t all too grand. Secondly, we need something to stabilize the servers, this is a must! Next off how about actual trait zones that AREN’T linked to Forge mini-games, y’know like they were done in Reach, Halo 4, and H2A. Finally we need more chaotic/classic modes maybe not for Arena or Warzone, but definitely for customs, we need something to remove the “frustration factor” from Halo 5 as this game s quite rage inducing, even in Custom lobbies. All I’m saying is 343 should consider making the game less frustrating for everyone, even if it means there has to be some level of unbalance.

I want my chopper and brute shot… Is that too much to ask??

Oh I forgot… Regicide…

Nvm I also forgot… Headhunter…

You have no idea how much I want the Brute Shot back. SPNKR Prime on Brute Shot = my best friend. The weapon glitch would be amazing with the brute shot, so many cool weapons to put on it. You could even make the Meta’s Brute Shot simply by fusing it with Prophet’s Bane, this weapon has so much potential!

I agree, we definitely need a major update for Halo 5 to go out on a bang… here’s what I’d love to see (and hope for, since it has been a while since their last update, which has me crossing my fingers that the last one will be huge…):

  1. Return to Campaign: I continue to try and pitch this idea. Fix some of the issues people had with the campaign by giving us campaign DLC. Advertise it as “The Chief is back,” and do three missions or so that function as a prequel to Halo 5, fixing some of the issues people had with it by making it all Blue Team centric. When Fred said “This many missions back to back isn’t good…” or whatever at the start of Halo 5, give us that. The team reuniting for the first time in years as well.

  2. New Maps: Even more than gametypes or weapons, I think two or three new maps added to the equation would go a long way towards people wanting to jump back into the multiplayer. And for many people, once they see how good it has become, they’d probably stay around for a while, if the population count was high enough! I know people want BTB to be a priority here - but I don’t think that makes much sense. Only one playlist utilizes those maps, so focus on maybe a couple of Arena maps, and maybe one for WZ.

  3. New REQs: The last thing I’d suggest them adding would be a wealth of new REQs to collect. This would be super easy for people just accumulating RP, but if you added maybe a couple of new weapons from past Halo games, maybe the Wasp, plus another sheet of REQs to collect and play with, I think people would be stoked about that, and I imagine it’d be the easiest thing to implement of the three I’ve mentioned here.

I honestly think we need more gametypes than maps, 343 has proven that their “dev maps” are nothing compared to previous titles. Every map in Halo 5 is a minature factory setting in one way or another, far too cramped for actual Halo gameplay. We do NOT need more maps like this, I’d much rather have Riccochet, Headhunter, Classic Firefight, and Dominion back than more low res maps.

I think a good game changer would be 1 Flag CTF and Oddball…

I don’t want new REQs b/c I can’t get Phaetons as it is, and they would water it down even more. Would love some new maps.

I would like to see a brute based update where they bring back all the brute weapons such as the brute shot spiker and the mauler (personal favorite brute weapon) and the 2 vehicles the chopper and prowler I don’t even care if there aren’t any variations of the weapons but I at least want them back. I would also like to see a Classic playlist where it’s halo ce, 2, 3, and reach maps remade and they each have their own game mode such as the reach one having Sprint but no other Spartan abilities and halo 2 maps only having a smg or br at spawn

just give me a pony with lazer eyes 343 and we are all good (in real life the pony would be cool to ride around town).
and maybe a classic playlist but definitely the pony.

The next update would have to be mind-blowingly amazing to get me to renew my currently inactive Xbox Live subscription to play it. But I highly doubt that we’ll get anything close to that.

i for one would love to a new version of grifball go live dodge ball!!! players spawn in and can either have one guy throwing them super fast or a crapton of them come from lifts etc to dodge also the infection energy sword req to warzone would be good id also like to see a few more warzone maps being used and a voting system added in games

I want my halo reach assault rifle :frowning:

Button mapping would be an amazing game changer. Also a balanced warzone and saved loadouts.

I wonder how a Campaign released in three or four chapters at one month intervals would be received and how it would influence sales / population. I’m sure some people would hate it, much like some hate the monthly rank resets. It would definitely spike conversation in the community if no one knew the ending until the game had been out for two or three months.

Revamped aiming system not just sliders! PLEASE!

I would just like a few new arena maps to play swat on, a few developer made btb maps since the Forge ones look like crap and some sort of reward for players that have supported the game from day 1 like a special little Mark next to the players gamertag or symbols for ranks or names like in HW2.

I feel like the Campaign DLC and something to reduce the rage factor would both be incredible additions. I already have made a post on the DLC, so if anyone would like to check my ideas out, just click on my tag jaygreen7.

My bad. The excitement got to me.
