What Halo 5 Should Have

[kevin85]

Halo 5 should have every vehicle from the past Halo games and new vehicles. Same thing with the weapons . Also you should be able to get all the maps from previous games (Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo 4, ext.) and new maps. It should also have a firefight mode like Halo 3 ODST not Reach, and it should have let you choose if you want to fight covenant or prometheans. Also it should have every game mode from previous games (except for infection, that would be flood). One last thing, it should have all armor from previous games including specializations and spartan ops should be in it along with forge (in forge you should be able to make a elephant, mammoth, short sword, long sword, pelican, and phantom). I almost forgot, it should have all assanations form other games and new ones, same with the armor abitiles, and it should have a custom assanation maker, emblem maker, and a personalize weapon maker (scopes, camo, barrel, and stock).

- duel wielding! your a spartan for Pete's sake 

 

-flame thrower and rocket pods

 

- bring back the flood

 

- let players be able to be all forces from Covenant and UNSC and Flood (grunts, jacklas, elites brutes hunters. Spartans, marines, ODST. all flood ranks.

 

-bring back a human flying vehicle

 

- add motion paths for items in forge. ( i build ship with building blocks with motion path makes it go on a track)

 

- add an ODST drop pod vehicle  

 

-have enemy spawn points in forge. 

 

- bring back smg and brute mauler 

 

-add a knife to the Armour somewhere! ( they just don't appear)

 

- add more of the old armour 

 

-massive multiplier servers 24v24, this also applies for the part below 

 

-A forge Earth ( so big that you could place a Covenant base on one side of the earth then a human base on the other side) world is your sandbox! 

 

- more vehicles for forge. scarab, elephant, hornets, falcons, seraphs, phantoms, pelicans including older vehicles

 

-ester egg for flying infinity!

 

-add ammo crates to forge

 

-when we get new ranks give us everything for that class for example wet work rank 1. let us have the armour ability and gun as soon as we unlock it. then give us 10 ranks for us to use those items.

For firefight, I really think they should bring back odst soldiers to play as, and definitely include bigger maps to be able to progress to the next section to access when an area is overrun just the game giving waypoints to blast through a wall to move on or opening a door etc. I feel that odst firefight succeeded because they were not Spartans and without armor abilities. Just stamina and health. 343 should have the odst visr mode and hud the same to keep the authenticity. The reason for the larger maps is to give the player more exploration instead of being left to their doom in a contained area for example a goal to work towards, like a pelican at the end. I may be the only one who liked the visr mode it was perfect for night maps. Please bring back night maps. 343 should recycle the fire team system in reach so you could monitor your squads health even though you're separated. No shield = utilize health packs effectively. And bring back flamethrowers

 

And possibly the option to play regular (infinite waves) or a quick game (time limit) 45mins-1hour with goal at the end. and for halo 5 multiplayer,bring back free for all.

ODSTs pls

 

And maybe also add silenced weapons or plain attachments to weapons.

 

I think the drop pod is a great idea, could be possible as a tactical insertion similar to section 8. But it would require huge, outdoor maps. It would definitely be cool on the 720 to support massive servers

[BaconShelf]

No offense, but most of these ideas are horrible.

 

They cannot put EVERY map, vehicle and weapon in the game, it cannot be done.

Reach and ODST firefight were both as boring as each other, i(personally) am glad they are gone.

Large vehicles are too overpowered, and large for maps. The maps we can have are nowhere near big enough for them, nor are they balanced

See point #1 for gametypes

Infection gametype settings, flood character models and (optional) claw

No attachments please, custom loadouts were already a bad step. The Silenced pistol/SMG were there for a specific role

SPARTAN III's and IV's cannot dual wield in lore, they cannot dual-wield in multiplayer because if this.

Specialisations are there to keep you unlocking things, there is no point levelling up if you don't get a reward

Flying a broadsword/sabre is a difficult task for a console. A full warship? Just... No.

See point #1 for armour

Forge is map EDITOR, no AI.

An Earth-size map would be impossible for a high end computer to run, let alone tech that is years old.

Playing as all species would be fun, but pointless

Brute weapons should only be in the game if the species is on as well. The hammer is there purely for grifball

24vs24 is possible, BF has it. Halo keeps 8v8 for LIVE parties

Personalising weapons, emblems and assasinations is like the CoD point I stated above, it doesn't fit halo.

 

 

There. For tech, lore or plain sense, these ideas cannot work.

[silkentofu]

I see your reasoning, we probably won't be able to do much right now since we have no idea what the specs of the 720 actually are and we won't be able to know its limitations and strengths. But, we can all dream. What are some ideas you'd like to share for halo 5. I like change but as long as they keep the halo formula going clearly, I'm fine with it evolving as long as it stays true. I liked odst. It gave a breath of fresh air whilst keeping it within the universe. Some of these ideas are a bit unrealistic I know, like trying to have scarabs and AI but it could be possible if halo 5 suddenly magically becomes a PC game which supports modding. But like I said, we can't possibly know if any of these ideas can be implemented until the 720 or whatever it is they call it comes out

 

ODST was awesome in my opinion because it was designed with coop via system link in mind, I for one actually have these Lan parties every once in a while with friends and its really fun to play when you have a full team.

 

By coop I mean firefight lol

[silkentofu]

If there was something I would add to the next halo, it would be a more fluid movement system, like grabbing onto ledges and mantling through windows. This would most likely increase the pace of halo and add even more verticality. I can only dream for now, but having a decent horde mode that is within the halo universe be fun? It would definitely be better than having Spartan ops. Having 24v24 for big team battle would definitely require some battlefield esque maps.

[legend destiny]

halo 5 should have all the vehicles  you should be able to add covenant/Promeitheans and marines to the map

 

plus we should have bigger maps as at the moment I only like Ragnarok and Haven

[BaconShelf]

Read what I put in my post before. They cannot happen.

 

For bigger maps, they are the size they are so that you can traverse them quickly on foot or vehicle. BF3 maps take hours to walk across and a few minutes to get across in vehicles. If that's what you want, fine but don't complain when it takes 15 minutes to cross to the enemy base.

 

 

 

My suggestions;

I like the idea of climbing etc

 

The ability to spawn anywhere on the map (not enemy base) via SOEIV'S (ODST drop pods)(think Sectipn 8:Prejudice)

 

(For GT's like territories and dominion) to choose which base (you control) to spawn at

 

Classes which can be unlocked to spawn with.(Shotgun class requiring 10 kills to use) kinds thing. At least for customs, where SWBF gametypes can be made more easily

 

The tools used to tweak damage and bloom per weapon

 

A UNSC aircraft or Covenant VTOL

 

Transport vehicles

 

Make the Rockets lock on easier to see (like Reach and 2 version)

 

Covenant themed forge pallete

 

More Spartan Ops

 

Achievement/game mode for LASO

 

Once completed campaign once, you unlock customisable skulls (think reach firefight)

 

More urban/city combat. Of like to see Rarth and colonies, forerunner artefacts are getting a bit boring now.

 

Less crashing spaceships. PoA, IAC, FUD and Infinity. It's getting kinda boring now.

[superintendent]

why can't new/old vehicles be added you gave no explanation to as why not, they could be balanced for multiplayer  

 

contrary to popular belief i thought ODST was an excellent game worth its money, it adds more challenge to it not being a super soldier but a lowly ODST.

 

 

And offense was taken to my brainstorming. IF you want to rain on my parade ill hit you with my umbrella.

 

another valid point to my argument would be that the Xbox 720 specs have not been released to public yet thus it could be possible to add most of those features.

 

Tweaking weapons would make the game too easy almost like a black ops game.

 

 

and the war ship would be an Ester Egg not during multiplayer. 

[superintendent]

you do bring up some good points though baconshelf. 

[BaconShelf]

By all vehicles, you mean every vehicle that has been controllable in a game. I think why do we need all of them? Spectre and Prowler full the same role. Etc. and when new Xbox is out, the tech will be at least 1-2 years old already. I just don't think it's possible.

 

Oh, and I don't play CoD, so you'll have to enlighten me on that point.

[ForgeMonitor]

What I gather from this is that you don't want Halo 5 to be Halo 5. You want it to be a distorted mess, a butchered combination of the older games (the elements of which would need to be created from scratch and be redundant) and generic shooters. If you want things from the older games, then play the older games. If you want more players on each map, then play Battlefield. If you want maps that take hours to traverse, then play Planetside 2. I myself want Halo 5 to be Halo 5.

Also, this thread shouldn't exist. Clearly pinned at the top of the page is "The Official What You Do and Do Not want in Halo 5 Thread"; you have no excuse not to have seen it, although the posts probably aren't worthy enough to be there. Sometimes, people's stupidity makes me almost appreciate that 343i never looks at this forum.

[BaconShelf]

Nicely put.

 

I should add that my options are for customs mainly. I could t care less about matchmaking.

[TDM]

I was thinking of a custom visor color chooser, Featuring a primary and secondary color for the visor. Or certain color patterns.

[superintendent]

not every vehicle, i should have specified. but at least they should add a UNSC flying vehicle back!  

[Zoriah Brown]

First of all i just want to say that halo is a wonderful game on xbox.But i ask my friend if they like it on xbox alone and they said no.they want to be able to carry it around anywhere and play whenever.so i want bungie to add halo 4 and 5 to the ps4 and ps vita.because people like playstation and with and with the ps vita they can take it anywhere anytime.we can use the controls and the touch screen and the touch pad.second in halo 5 you should add the falcons which can go faster,can have options to ride in it and use the weapons sniper and spartan laser to get the enimies out in the falcon,add forge world with new bases,add armor effect like halo reach.

 

 thats all i want to say i.

 

i hope bungie dont bull$hit with this like everyother. this came from my halo heart.
