Halo 5 has a lot of hype and expectations to live up to, given the fact that MCC multiplayer was broken for some time, and some weren’t quite happy with Halo 4 (I loved it), 343i has to nail it this time around in order to heal those wounds. I fully expect Halo 5 to be a great game, but that being said, there are some things I’d like to see.
- Cortana, I know that some people don’t want to see her back in halo 5’s campaign, and I don’t either. In Halo 4’s campaign, it was said that the forerunners have technology capable of digitizing humans, preserving there personalities and memories, and vice versa changing a digital being into flesh. I know they said that this had some horrifying results, but I’d like to think that’s what Chief is hunting down, this is what he went rogue for, he wants to revive her and possibly give her want she always wanted: to be human. Either way that’s my selfish wish for the revival of my favourite character, you have to admit… it makes sense;) - Ranking system similar to Halo 3, I know 343i have released some details on Halo 5’s ranking system, but I can’t quite remember what it was exactly. As long as you level up based on wins, and not experience, I’m fine with it. - Halo 5’s campaign is quite clearly built around co-op. That could be a problem for me, I don’t think that ill have 3 other friends buying halo 5 (hopefully that’ll change being that I just joined the website with the most halo fans on the internet;) ) so i’m wondering how that will play out when your riding solo. So far it looks fine based on what they’ve shown, but it’s yet to be seen how smoothly your commands for your AI controlled companions will work, and if they’ll make the campaign more annoying than anything getting in your way and such. We shall see.What do you guys wanna see in Halo 5? sound off!
The commanding system looks like that of republic commando, and I’ll tell you playing solo with such mechanics is a lot of fun. Don’t worry about that. I want to see forge and theater, forge with ai spawning.
Yeah, I feel like Forge and Theatre are no brainers, I never even thought of that. Ai spawning in forge would be incredible!
I like the idea of playing as a brute, opens the door for new gameplay mechanics.

> - Dual-wielding and equipment from Halo 3
> - Open world campaign
> - Custom game matchmaking with server browser.
> - 4 player splitscreen
> - Ability to play as Elites and Brutes
> - Infection, like from Reach, not H4
> - Destructible environments
Everything except open world campaign… That is just not for me
The biggest thing I want is a Campaign that I can constantly go back to and play, takes me on an adventure and triggers my emotions such as anger, sadness, and feeling awesome as hell.
I want to see some very strong post-launch support by 343, with a particular focus on community activities. A large Custom Games and Forge community is critical to the success and overall fun of any Halo game in my opinion.
Massive improvements to forge. Textures, real terrain editor, weather control… i won’t get into details, because i feel forge needs a lot of improvements.
Longer than an eight hour campaign
Assault
#1 Split Screen
Also,
I want Brute stuff back, and I’m very concerned that I haven’t seen Brute stuff so far and am fearing Brutes won’t be in the game. I absolutely adored the Bruteshot, Mauler, Spike Grenades, Spiker, and the amazing Chopper from Halo 3. But I didn’t like Brutes as an enemy in Halo 3 and Reach and felt they were too easy and boring. I want Brutes brought back and improved as truly brutish, unique, tough enemies.
I would absolutely love to be able to customize my control scheme like Bethesda does with Fallout and Skyrim.
There’s plenty I’d love in a perfect Halo game, and in custom games I wish they’d go all out and bring us a ton, like a Flood gametype where you actually turn into Flood forms (I hope Flood’s in campaign), duel-wielding, and Halo 3’s equipment which I loved.
Unfortunately, I think the game is too close to being complete for big gameplay additions and changes to be made, as I think most of the rest of the time will be spent wrapping up and polishing the experience so I think detailing every gameplay wish would be a waste of time now, but for Halo 6 we should hop onto the Forums early on.
What can definitely still be done that I really ask for is split screen, custom control schemes, and good, fun options in custom games.
Playable Elites,Brutes and hell even playable Prometheans. Let Spartans have their own thrust ability and let the other races have abilities of their own abilities like Cloak for Elites and teleportation* for Prometheans etc. and hell, it would be cool if Brutes get Dual Wielding as their ability
Things i wish were in H5:
-local co op campaign
-local 4p splitscreen
-theather that works both for campaign and mm
-a fully functional forge (at least at reach’s level)
-playable elites
-reachs armor customization
basicaly all the features H3 had plus reach’s improvements and some of h4s aestetic options.
I want a good amount of new Forge features, like cloning whole sections of maps, changing the skybox, changing the biome, and switching the palettes. Aside from Halo 2A’s scripting, Forge hasn’t changed much at all in five years. I’d really want a completely revolutionized Forge, or a map maker rather than an editor, but that probably won’t happen.
To go along with realism: enemies that have to reload. Also more armor customization. Otherwise I’m happy as can be.
