  1. Some people on here think that the return of the flood would be the best thing ever. I completely disagree. Halo 1-3 is the story of the return of the Flood and how they were defeated. It had a nice conclusion. Any return to the Flood story would be a TERRIBLE idea in my opinion. I don't want to retread that whole story. I want something new, and so far, I haven't been dissatisfied. I like the direction things are going. That said, here's what I would look forward to: 1. Very personal conflict. Someone has said, 'When a planet explodes, people don't blink an eye. But when you threaten a major character, people get emotional.' I find that very true. Look what happened when Cortana is threatened: All of a sudden it's an emotional investment for people, and things are MORE interesting. 2. Cortana does not return. I really, really like that 343 stuck to their guns and followed through with what we know to be part of the canon Halo universe: AI's have a limited lifespan. In this respect, she is just like any other AI. I also like this idea because it allows other, new characters to be introduced, and for John to evolve. This is called character progression. 3. More exploration of the Spartan program, especially with the shadow man interrogating Halsey. Is he out to create a new program? (Sweet!) Why does he villainize the Chief? What IS he after and who does he work for? Halsey implies that it's not ONI, but someone else. I find that really interesting and was really bummed there was no follow up at the end. 4. Chief developing new friends and allies amongst the (Old and New) Spartans. (Sarah Palmer seems to be cool.) 5. Politics. I really liked chief having to disobey orders to do what he thought was right. Creates good tension. What happens when Chief crosses the wrong people though and IS perceived as being imbalanced? 6. LESS covenant adversaries. We've fought the covenant to death now and made them our allies. It's never really explained in the game why they are present, except to say that they're more zealous than the rest. That being said, I am interested what happens to the Covenant. 7. Personally I wouldn't be adverse to them revealing Chief's face, but the community may be against it. Not sure. 8. Less goofy Spartan's (Spartan Ops). Spartan's are people, but they've been through a lot. I liked the Spartan's from Reach MUCH better. Thoughts?
