Hey, these suggestions were taken from an old Bungie thread that was originally created by me for fans to suggest ideas to improve Halo: Reach, but with the highly anticipated Halo 4 coming up we should think of how we want it to turn out. This is also being put on the Bungie forums and both will be updated with new given ideas daily.
I’ll start off with the stuff I already came up with or gathered. Some of this stuff may relate to Reach because it’s from the old ‘suggest ideas to improve Halo: Reach’ thread.
FORGE
Instant clear whole map of all objects button (I’m sick and tired of spending ages clearing maps to make my own)
Copy, cut and paste multiple objects features
Undo and redo features
DON’T MAKE ALL OTHER MAPS APART FROM ONE MAP TOTALLY USELESS FOR FORGE (Complete lack of forgeable objects in the other maps, like the Forge World situation)
Group object feature (you group them together and can lock them together)
Ability to save groups of objects (For example: You made a pirate ship, grouped it and saved the group, and then found the group in another map, bought it (it costs as much as all the items in the group) and set it down in the new map. This way you don’t have to keep remaking things over and over again)
Making shade turrets weapons, rather than vehicles (Adds more flexibility in forging objects)
The ability to change the physics of all turrets (so we can put them slightly angled/in the air/built into the ground/all of these)
Trees, Bushes, Groups of trees/bushes
Civilian Vehicles (that means ALL of the ones featured in firefight and the campaign, and maybe more?)
Flamethrowers, Firebomb Grenades and Spike Grenades (just for Forge and Custom Games, because some awesome game variants on Halo 3 were completely based around fire)
Chain-link fences (or anything that lets bullets through but not people)
Snap-to-fit fences and bridges - bridges snap onto other bridges at the right angle and the same with fences, which also can snap onto the sides of bridges (able to be turned on and off)
Falcons with front-mounted burst machine guns (like in the campaign) but with seats on them that don’t have extra machine guns. Normal falcons change name to ‘transport falcons’.
Transport falcons with grenade launchers on the side (again, like in the campaign).
Pilotable Phantoms
Pilotable Pelicans
Drivable and placeable Elephants (Seriously, Bungie, why did you take them out?)
Driveable and placeable Boats
Driveable and placeable Anti-air wraiths
Useable and placable Anti-air cannons
A useable and placeable human turret to be a rival to the shade turret
Pallets on Forge World
Ability to make groups of things float
NPC placement (with the ability to change their teams)
Skins for forgeable objects
Vehicle editing (make your own vehicle out of parts and place it in Forge - sort of like Banjo-Kazooie N&B)
The ability to change the gravity in certain areas (for example, an invisible box with everything inside it floating around as it is at 25% gravity)
More scenery items to make civilian buildings
The ability to make custom firefight maps from editing the available ones.
Smoke grenades
Nail guns
One sandbox-like pallet to work with
Day/night option
Weather or fog effects
The ability to change structure items’ textures (so they can look like rubble, ice, urban metal, wood, ect.)
Add more flexibility to any objects spawn times on forge - such as allowing initial spawn times past three minutes (perhaps to 10?)
The ability to make a weapon/item spawn once and never come back after being picked up

FIREFIGHT
ODST map remakes
Add leaderboards based on rounds survived and scoring
Remove timer from matchmaking and make it about survival like in ODST
Remove roundly weapon drops and add a currency system to buy guns and ammo
The ability to buy over-shield and active camo or any other equipment for one time use by using said currency system
CAMPAIGN
Return to a sandbox feel as much as possible
Add leaderboards for both scoring and speedruns
Bring back obtainable skulls like in Halo 2, 3, and CEA or audiologs like ODST
Enemies should include Forerunner AI monitors in various forms like in Halo 2, flood, or anything new up 343i creative sleeve
More challenging ‘Legendary’ mode
THEATER
Works fully for all modes (Mp, Firefight, Campaign)
HD rendering system we pay for similar to bungie pro
Bring back party mode
DLC IDEAS:
Spin-off campaign (just like Joe’s Adventures from Mafia 2 and Undead Nightmare for Read Dead Redemption)
New missions
A mission where you pilot a pelican
A massive battle mission
