I am creating this thread so that we can get an early jump on what we want to see in the next halo’s multiplayer. I will need a lot of support to keep this thread up. I would appreciate if everyone gives their opinion and suggestions. And please no insulting and complaining. Just valid arguments and suggestions.
343i should implement a server for multiplayer, so I don’t have to rely on someone else’s connection. Also, they should return the Arena from reach; the Arena was amazing.
A server browser. Where I can pick servers running the maps and gametypes I actually want to play with the ping I am willing to tolerate.
Matchmaking is a horrible system, no one is ever satisfied when they are thrown into laggy games where people veto the choices they want.
Balanced loadouts. A few primaries, a few sidearms, and a few perks and abilities (preferably no perks). No power weapons. No mini-shotguns. No panic-nukes. No Camo. No abilities that make vertical maps impossible to design. Just balanced weapons and abilities.
Competitive playlist from the start.
Action Sack playlist from the start.
No Random Ordnance of any kind, whether it be personal or global. Consistency is important.
NEW MODES
BIG TEAM CHAOS Big team battle mode where there is a weapon that each team is fighting to control. like a scarab that is smaller in scale to previous ones, bigger then other vehicles and is some how mounted in place or a cannon. I can only be controlled by one person and its beams would be a little toned down to compensate for map size and balance
FIREFIGHT I know that it is not new, but i would love to see it in the next game
CHANGES TO GAMEPLAY
-
Less bullet magnetism
-
More Vehicle health
-
No random weapon spawns and NO indication of where weapons are UNLESS it is a players first time playing a match, and in that case the player will be shown where all power weapons are for 1 minute and a half and then indications will disappear. This will only be done one time for the whole multiplayer experience and will not be done again on any other map or game type.
-
Descope and no flinch
NO ROTATIONAL PLAYLIST

I would love to see these
there’s like 7 different covenant races, which home planet do you want to see?
my choice would be the sangheili homeworld
the server browser would be nice, but would only be practical for social matches…which brings me to my next point - separation of Ranked and Social playlists like in H3!
Invasion with Battle field size maps
Elites to return in MM.
1-50 (or more) true skill ranking.
Maps with interactive elements. - Like terminal, turf and backwash.
Elites with their own Ranking system.
Firefight to return with new maps and modes. (Like to play as ODST’s or spartans or even traxus workers. And Maps like the Traxus complex and New Phoenix
Also - Brute chopper, elephant, prowler, pelican, hornet, and falcon.
Playable Warrior-Servants and Elites (if canon allows for the former)
Improvements in new features like Ordinance
A couple playlists for Space-Combat with Sabres/Broadswords/Pelicans/etc., with their own unique loadout options. Playlists would include basic Slayer and Objective.
i want halo 5 to be like halo 1,2 and 3.
especially halo 3.
1.smaller hitbox like the one in halo 3 not like reach and halo 4 where the hitbox is bigger than the head meaning the hitbox should be the same size as the head so that it will widen the gaps of skill.
2.less auto-aim, aim assist, aim magnetism whatever you call it.
3.no recoil in battle rifle.
4.no load-outs.why?it may be cool to have load-outs but it really makes the game unbalanced for example a dmr vs br long range dmr will win it is not balanced i want everyone to spawn with the same weapon.and the matches i always play in.players are always using precision weapons most of the time and its getting boring.i want the match to have large variety of gameplay like players spawning with assualt rifles.
5.higher grenade damage as the grenades are weaker now.players drop grenades.
6.no more perks it makes the game unbalanced.
7.sniper rate of fire to be increased,speed of sniper bullet to increase,players thinks the halo 4 is easier to use but the fact is wrong it is easier to use because of the larger hit-box, if you compare it to halo 3 and halo 4 sniper halo 3 would win it hands down, because of the large hit-box players tends to snipe very easily or should i say snipe accidentally.halo 4 sniper bullet speed is so slow you need to track the enemy or lead your shots which makes it impossible to swipe snipe unless your talking about lead swipe snipe which is retarted.
8.halo 3 ranking system,because the rank really shows how skilled you are for example once you see a general you should now their skill whereas in halo 4 you can rank to sr 130 but that might not show that they good.and the exp system of halo 3 to return maybe with the highest rank of “5 Star Strike Commander General” sounds awesome eh?but you can ignore the highest rank part but it would be cool to have such a rank.
9.weapon placement on maps because it is fun to fight for the weapons rather than camping with the reward thing i forgot the name.also the the weapons should not have indicator on them and alot weapons on the map to have large variety because its so boring to keep holding on to the same weapon.
10.better menu design because it looks complicated.i just want a simple menu.
11.i wonder if there is anyone out there like me who hates assassinations as it is a waste of time to do that it slows down gameplay.and i hate looking at myself getting assassinated.tap to assassinate is it?when we play games when we have fun why the hell would i want to tap the button when we can hold it down whenever we like to,i hope assasinations would be remove but i would feel bad because so many people like it so at least more options in the setting menu like turn off assasination, controller vibration etc.
12.hit box of the back too small!!! when i hit the back of the shoulders it does not count as an assassination .when i jump to hit the enemy back or head from the top of their body it does not count as well i really miss the part where i kill people by jumping and hitting the back of their heads and killing them instantly.
13.please no more armor abilities and sprint especially the jet-pack and sprint.too much height advantage and it is again not base on skill people could just see through wall rather than their own human skill like the predicting where players are.and sprint does not increase the pace of the game can run away after almost dying.also sprint cause the map makers to increase size of the map like ragnarok it doesn’t play like vahalla and vahalla is already a big map.also when players run they cant attack instantly after running also people can run up to me instantly from the back to kill me while the team mate from the front is distracting me.i used to think sprint would be a great idea now after playing i really hated it.i miss the old halo classic man it now gone.halo is gone man the halo we used to love changed.
14.less complicated maps and smaller maps.maybe some different weather and day time map or night time maps so we could use the visr mode in halo 3 odst it was really cool to have that visr mode.the promethean vision doesnt look as good and maybe things moving like trains boxes stocks cars.visr is really cool has nice blue outlines on weapons,green outlines for allies and red outlines for enemies.hope halo 5 have visr mode by holding the x button with a icon showing how long you must hold to on visr mode and also bring halo 3 equipment by tapping x button.
15.make more remake maps.
16.bring back power-ups placement on maps like overshield and camouflage with no fading effect of the power-up when moving.
17.make cars spawn slower for example 3 min because it sure spawn to fast.
18.yeah also the weapon size is so large and yeah players talk about wow a tank sniper blah blah blah even the battle rifle its like the weapons cover much of the screen size its ridiculous i really hope the weapon size would be smaller while in first person.i don’t want to look at my weapon all the time i want a bigger view of my surrounding.
19.want a change in the shotgun design as it looks too plain.
20.bring back the grenade launcher from halo reach because it looks beast it takes skill to use.
21.entirely new game modes for example gears of war judgement rather than changing the gameplay they put in new game modes like over-run where you get to be different enemies i am not saying to copy the idea but just an idea what a entirely new game mode means big changes in game modes rather than just changing the settings.
22.AI BOTS!!! PLEASE HAVE AI BOTS!!! its no fun playing with friends once i killed them like crazy they all ran away
after ganging up on me.why does halo not have ai bots when call of duty black ops have it only team death match and gears of war has bots in every game type.
23.the playlist are really boring for example when i play infinity slayer i just basically play infinity slayer whereas halo 3 social slayer or team slayer you get to play with team rockets,duals and swords not that i like those game types but at least i dont play the same thing over and over again.and the bad thing about the playlist is that they are divided into different game types like capture the flag i think they should put it in one playlist like social skirmish,different game variants in one playlist and i also hope that multi team would return with 2 player in each team of four.
24.bring back the flood in campaign.
25.add bosses in campaign like in halo 2 where we had no idea of how to kill the boss like tartarus and the covanent leaders etc.
26.bring back the arbiter.
27.no instant respawns because players will spawn immediately and will propably know your location and team will always be full strength.
28.please no more blooms from the automatic weapons and any other weapons.
29.balance the game by getting beta testers to view their opinion before making the final game.
30.no flinch and de-scope when shot.
31.vehicle with more health and will only be destroyed when players dies or will not be destroyed if players die when health of vehicle did not deplete completely.
32.dual wielding.
33.no more commendations maybe medal chest where we can show off our medals on profile by selecting few medals bring back perfection and extermination and no medals like rocket kill.
