Just wanted to start a thread to tally up the communities wish list for halo 6. Here’s mine.
Campaign:
As of now most of the community is tired of fighting the covinent. It’s gotten somewhat old. However this is not to say the covinent is boring. There just hasn’t been any real changes since halo 2 when they introduced brutes and jackle sharp shooters. Halo 3 took away the elites and all we got in return was a suicide grunt. Reach gave us a new jackle like creature but we haven’t seen that one in a while. We really need a few new aliens.
My ideas would be to not only bring back the brutes but introduce a smaller younger brute as well. If a brute is like a gorrilla than this creature should be like an ape. Riding into battle on some kind of horse like animal like in planet of the apes. Doesn’t have to be a horse but you get the idea. Halo has always promised some kind of animal the chief could ride. There are quite a few videos of some ruff stuff that was in developement. But never happened do to console limitations. Next I think the flying insects should be reintroduced. Except there should be a bigger queen like insect as well. This could be a boss battle and the little insects would be there to protect the queen.
I do like fighting the prometheins. But as they stand they don’t fit well with the halo formula. Enemy wise they’re doable but part of halo is vehicle combat and one stinking plane don’t cut it.
The flood. Well since halo is going for that teen rating I guess having life sucking zombie like creatures that fall to pieces when you shoot isn’t gonna fly. I get that. However there is something the flood offered current halos miss. The flood use unsc weaponry. And it really mixed things up when the enemy sported a br or rocket launcher. They even drove scorpions and warthogs in halo 2. If we can’t have the flood do to violence then have us go up against covies who’ve been in the field for a while. Ran out of they’re supplies and scavaged weapons off of the fallen.
Blood. Ok back to teen rating. I’m not asking for gears of war violence but the red and purple stuff from old halos was fine. Keep it teen like they did with mortal kombat on genesis and offer an optional mature download from Xbox live to unlock the mature rated version of halo.
They’re needs to be a Human equivilent to the banshee and a return of the hornet.
Multiplayer:
Move the grenade switch to the star button. And move the pause menu to either the button that is currently used for scoeboards or the dpad. Sorry but grenade switch on the dpad is killing the experience. Switching bases in the middle of a firefight is not practical with the current setup. Also make req weopons if they return in halo 6 available in forge and customs so we can have a little fun and actually learn how to use the stuff effectively without burning through our req supply. Last make it to where we can combine modes. Like ctf and territories in one game. Also we should be able to form alliances. Red and blue vs yellow and green. With combined modes it could be like red and green objective is to get 50 kills. Blue and hello need to capture flags etc. Each team can work together to help each other accomplish objective but can’t interfere. For instance red could see blues flag waypoint. But they can’t pick it up. They can guard it though and score kills. Also when you speak in headset you shouldn’t be able to hear allied team. To communicate with ally there should be a walkie talkie function on the dpad similar to halo 2
