I want this post to be one full of ideas and full with all the little things we think make Halo one of our favorite games. Please state what you want to see return either in a future update for Halo 5 or in the next Halo FPS game (presumably Halo 6, but who knows, maybe spin-offs would be cool to). It can be whatever you like, but it must have been in a previous Halo title. This time, I’m not focusing on gametypes, but you guys might as well say what you like, no restrictions there (only that it was already featured in a previous Halo title).
- Popping Jackal Shields - So many times I’ve tried to pop a Jackals shield to no avail, the only time I’ve been able to do it is with a charged Plasma Pistol shot, but not with normal bullets from UNSC weapons. I may be wrong, I may be right, but I don’t remember ever seeing in Halo 5 a Jackals shield change color until it popped out. Sometimes when I kill a Jackal, I keep shooting at it because I think it’s still alive 'cause even after their death, the shield still lingers on (is the shield now a new enemy?) - Halo CE Elite behavior - I have thought about this since Halo 4. I think that with every installment of Halo, Elite behavior has become less challenging. Sure, I don’t want them to be OP (Example: Hunters were easier to kill before than now, from my experience, which is good, they are supposed to be feared), but I think now they just stand still to receive your shower of bullets, and just jump a little bit to the sides, which is easy to follow. Halo CE and Halo Reach Elites were, in my opinion, the best Elites I ever fought against, they did the barrel roll, clambered on top of stuff, had flying jet packs (Halo 2), and were more diverse. - Crawling Crawlers - Man, the name states it, they are CRAWLERS, why can’t they CRAWL on the walls anymore? I’m not a good player that wants everything to be more challenging (all of my suggestions come from the Campaign or from Firefight, I’m not that good in PVP), but now everything is too easy (except Hunters and Knights, they are a force to be reckoned with). I loved having to look EVERYWHERE when a Crawler started shooting at me, I love diversity in AI behavior, but as I said before, with every installment I see some stuff being dumbed down.
Pretty sure you were never able to stop a Jackal’s Shield with UNSC weapons beyond explosions. That’s kinda the reason why you use Covenant weapons.
Elites don’t have jetpacks now, but they are capable of jumping high distances (just not with a clamber animation).

You could, at least with a BR or DMR you could, the shield would slowly change colors until it popped (all the time I was trying to shoot their head through the gap, but, well, were it so easy). I’m not saying you could with one mag, but you could. Now they don’t even change color, they are just… there.
Oddball was my favorite game mode but i don’t think it would work very well in halo 5 since there is sprint, so i would like to have a classic map return, a competitive classic map that is actually good unlike most of halo 5s competitive maps. (Not all of them are, bad just some)
Extraction. Solo Q playlist
I would like classic firefight to return.
also
black undersuits
I know this has been said many times, but I think the revenant would fit really well at req level 4 between the ghost at level 3 and the wraith at level 5. It would also be cool in btb, but it might have to be removed in ctf because it could carry a flag carrier and boost which would lead to easy captures.
I want that sticky detonator thing from Halo 4 brought back. The one that launched little globs of remote detonated plastic explosives. It’s about the only thing I miss from H4.

Yes. My friends and I had such good times messing around with it in custom games. Also I wonder how it would work with the weapon combo glitch.

I would like all previous weapons and vehicles from other Halo games, but that’s wishful thinking, that’s why I didn’t include it in my post.
