An enemy type that looks like the Navi from Avatar please.
Mechs, dropships, etc that looks like their counterparts from Avatar.
Turn Halo visually on next gen Xbox into Avatar on consoles, they would sell so many consoles and copies of the game.
Pay all previewers to include this tagline:
"This looks like Avatar running in real time."

I would like some sort of accounting software I could use in-game for my armory purchases. Something I could use to budget out my expenses with my net profit over the course of certain time periods. For instance, if I want to purchase that sweet GUNGNIR helmet and it costs 250,000 cR, I would like to be able to place that into a budget and calculate how long it will take me to earn the credits if I also plan on buying the sweet Mark V rt shoulder pad for 80,000 cR assuming I am at my current rank earning an average cR of "x" per game. I would also like to be able to create spreadsheets and detailed cost benefit analysis reports on all of these expenditures to compare how other players react to my sweet purchases and determine whether the cost justifies the fear it strikes into my enemies.
Bungie really dropped the ball on this feature and I feel like it is owed to me.

So you don't want Halo to look like avatar in real time?
They'll sell so many copies of the game and so many next gen xboxes. It shouldn't impact the gameplay at all.
Following back on what I posted earlier in the thread about dropping AAs:
I've given it much thought and felt that dropping AAs in favor of secondary fire on weapons it the way to go.
The problem with AAs is that you can't be too creative with them or else balance is ruined. There isn't a heavy visual identifier to both the user and others what AA are you using.
Putting secondary fires on guns is great because:
It makes weapons feel more fun to use,
People can tell by what weapon you have, the ability you have. Vice versa, people can tell what weapon you have by the ability you're using.

Halo can be that game.

Just remake Halo2 and I'll be happy.
I want Halo 4 to be a major departure they have the opportunity to do something completely new, and I hope they take it. Completely new enemies, completely new story, new weapons, vehicles, technology. We don't have to have Warthogs and Covenant just because that's what Bungie's games had, it should be its own thing.
I'm afraid that they're going to be forced to stick to old Halo staples to prove that they can do what Bungie does, and I don't know if I want another ten years of that.

I'd like an option to prioritize weapons. An example of this is when you're online and see a rocket and a few other weapons lying next to each other. You go to pick up the rocket hoping to get one shot off before getting killed and you accidentally pick up the needler instead. You die.
If there was an option to say weapon 1 > weapon 2 > weapon 3 etc in your profile so when there is chaos in small quarters you get the right weapon.

I love how you were completely shut down and totally ignored everyone. <3Mzo said:
Just to have a fun campaign and more Chief/Cortana talkin'.
I had an idea for a departure though that would have been neat. It would have been cool if Halo had taken kind of a Metroid Prime exploration route while still keeping it's famous gunplay intact.
It's my favorite series and somehow I want change while still keeping stuff the same. Ha, fans are difficult.

Better forge world where I can make maps that aren't just iron in palette.
Better ranking system. Focus more on wins, not personal points.
Removal of K/D stats for users to see UNTIL they reach an upper tier rank in a game type.
Example of above: Say there are 10 ranks from newbie to MLG pro status. I'd like to see it only in the top 3 rankings you start to see K/D stats. This way people focus on winning, which should be the bigger factor for setting your rank. At a certain point, say rank 5, it then starts to account your own personal stats as well as still the focus on winning. Keep winning, and do your part for the team, and you start clawing up more. The more fine tuned the better.

This is pretty much my wishes for Halo 4, but I don't quite agree that they don't need to put something like the Warthog in there.
It's not so much that they want to be like Bungie as it is they just want to leave some of the iconic and staple vehicles, weapons, and so on in the game because they help define Halo at its core.
You wouldn't want a Call of Duty without an M16, a Gears of War without a Lancer, etc.

-I want atleast a 2nd variation of some the available weapons. The differences don't have to be major, I think it will allow more customization and preferances. Now we can have both an upgraded DMR and the BR.
-Leveling Up for assassinations. The more you pull off the faster your assassinations can become. Then we can have true ninjas.

Sometimes crazy new things don't really work with what has been established in a franchise or with fan expectations. If he wanted to make it a stealth-action game or something, that wouldn't be Halo.
Fans want new awesome stories and cool new mechanics, but fans usually don't want a complete reversal of what they've loved in the past; they just want it to evolve, not transform.

3-shot pistol or I don't care. Haven't cared about Halo since the original game because of this.

I want it to be just like Reach. "The definitive FPS experience." I think though that I want more bloom. It really adds skill to the game the way you have to pace your shots. I really cant see how I enjoyed Halo 1 2 and 3 without it!
I also love the more tactical slower movement, maybe slow that down a little. Its a lot more realistic without people able to jump around.
I also really like how anyone can use the sniper rifle now, leads to a lot more epic headshots. Whatever they did the make the Sniper idiot proof in Reach needs to be expanded upon on the Assualt Rifle aswell though, that gun is the iconic Halo weapon and just doesnt get enough love.
Armor Abilities also need to come back, imagine armour lock but with the ability to actually move around while armour locked! I also think it would be sweet to have a tactical nuke AA, get a 25 kill streak and your AA turns into a CoD style nuke symbol which when used wins the game. The ability to use AA's whilst using vehicles needs to happen aswell. Imagine splattering people in a invisible warthog or using armour lock while in a tank. Would be SO fun!
There are SO many more ideas, Reach has really got a lot of stuff that needs to be expanded upon.
EDIT: While we are at it, I love assassinations so much I want them turned into a QTE Event, I also think beatdowns from the front should invoke this assassination qte event.
As long as the gameplay doesnt devolve into the tactless gameplay that existed before bloom and aa's existed I will be happy!

No matter how will Halo evolve in the upcoming years, it will become outdated. Next generation should be when they start taking risks with the main Halo entries so that there is enough freedom in the mechanics to continuously add new gameplay experiences with every entry. AA was a step in the right direction, but AA ultimately was more of a shoe horn than a legitimate addition. They should also continously flesh out the universe so that spin offs, books, and comics have more lore to work with.

Better graphics, 60 fps
I don't mind weapon bloom and armor abilities. Maybe an option to play without them? But for the base game they are fine.

larger battles. One of the best things in CE was how much larger the battles felt, and how many of the battles were already in progress before you even got there.

An actually ranking system. I need my carrot back. I want to see my 50 again. I haven't even tried to be competitive in Reach because of this. I want it to go back to Halo 3 style man.
