Site Poll 98: What's your favourite Halo novel/comic?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
Man there’s a lot of good stuff to choose from and so much that I own and haven’t read! Love Melody’s choice it’s up there for me. I gotta go with Halo: First Strike. The action and storytelling is all there. It’s Blue Team being Blue Team. So imagine how awesome their introduction was in Halo 5 and then imagine a whole novel written about how they handle a mission much bigger than that (awesomeness to scale). We would have been long done for had it not been for Operation First Strike -

Site Poll 97: Which Alpha-Nine member do you like most?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
My favorite used to be Mickey for his sense of humor and awesome attitude. I was so super disappointed when they made him betray Buck in Bad Blood (fantastic novella). It is too hard for me to go against Gunny on this one. Buck has transcended past being an "ordinary" human ODST undergone modifications to become a Spartan IV as we all know. His most recent star appearance in Halo 5 just solidifies this decision for me because of his witty one-liners. Twitter is coming up with some great answers for this. Another good week Spartan, nice. By the way, where is the art from? -
Site Poll 96: Who would replace John-117?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
I don't think anyone can replace John as the main protagonist of the series. I personally think Halo should take the approach of different view points each time and have their potential novel ideas be full length video games instead. However, to answer this week's great poll, I think I would have to go with Locke. That may sound cliche but being Locke felt pretty cool in Halo 5 and he has a great team to work with already on top of having a small amount of backstory to really develop. I don't think he will ever be as famous as Master Chief but Locke taking over the role of the main protagonist could be written in as Chief ages out or something. -
Site Poll 95: The future of the Reclaimer Saga?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
When it comes to discussing how many games or episodes or how long we'll be in the Reclaimer Saga, Grim had this to say: "Probably the safest thing is to not really be thinking of it in any '__ Saga' terms anymore. Just more Halo :-)" on Twitter. So it seems plans have changed and we aren't looking at different story arcs but rather one long story and universe that is Halo -
Site Poll 95: The future of the Reclaimer Saga?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
So much to cover in this poll, it's almost daunting. Firstly, the Reclaimer Saga being changed is an indicator that we will be going beyond a 6th game. Will it always be Chief? It doesn't have to be but it would be hard to appeal to the masses with anyone else. Remember when everyone thought Locke was being brought in to take over as the main character and that 343 wanted to do away with Chief? It didn't go so well even with Locke being a pretty good character. I would love to explore more locations and I'm sure we're heading in that direction since it seems Halo Infinite is giving hints that it could be open to exploration of a certain part of Zeta Halo. We can't be choosing between a good multiplayer and a good campaign anymore. Video games are difficult to make and I get that, but it's time to deliver. People are saying what they want, it's just time to make it happen. -
Site Poll 94: Which Spartan-IV do you like most?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
This is really tough because they've introduced some fantastic characters in the extended universe. It's hard not to go with one of the studs on Fireteam Osiris but my favorite Spartan IV is a clear fan favorite - Gabriel Thorne. We saw so much development of his character through Spartan Ops and Escalation it's hard to not feel stronger for him than the other Spartans. He's every characteristic of a good soldier which is a wonderful setup for him to possibly make some questionable decisions against ONI in the future (he's already questioning some of the things they've done). I'd love to see some more Fireteam Majestic in the future. -
If 343 wanted to make a good move, they'd include every weapon from previous Halo titles in multiplayer and Forge at least. If they don't make sense in the Campaign then that's totally understandable but give me back the Sticky Detonator!

Site Poll 93: Who's your favourite Captain/Shipmaster?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
THANK YOU -
Covenant armories are actually not doing terribly since most of them were on homeworlds of Covenant species which didn't get hit in the war. So I think these weapons are very much in circulation in 2560!

How Do You Feel About The Future of Halo? (Quick Poll)
Drizzy_Dan replied to Melody's topic in General Discussion
I have some faith that 343 will deliver us a fun new adventure in Halo Infinite and future titles but the track record has not been good. Especially after MCC got fixed and people are remembering how good the older Halos really were. Don't get me wrong, I like the evolved movement and Halo 5 is my second favorite multiplayer but I believe it to be in their best interest to take a step back. No one wants to go backwards when talking about growth but it's becoming more and more apparent in my opinion that this is what they should do. I don't think a complete devolution to classic Halo style is in order but something along the lines of the Halo 3 Classic playlist. Maybe leave Sprint, Thruster, and Spartan Abilities in the Campaign. -
Site Poll 93: Who's your favourite Captain/Shipmaster?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
I really liked Delpen's response honestly. However, as much as I pick on Yoshi, I have to say that his response is dead wrong. Palmer has the rank of Commander and this is specifically about naval ship captains or Shipmasters. Come on @Yoshi1176 -
Site Poll 93: Who's your favourite Captain/Shipmaster?
Drizzy_Dan replied to Ranger Intel's topic in General Discussion
My favorite ship Captain is that man you have pictured there, Captain Keyes. In the Fall of Reach you learn so much about him as a person and his tactical mind plays a huge role. As the inventor of the absolutely legendary Keyes Loop, he will always be remembered as the best to me. -
There's no telling how this game will go, who the enemies will be, etc. I want my classic weapons of course like the base UNSC set but for returning weapons I think I'd appreciate the Railgun making a return. It's strong, accurate, overall highly effective against most enemies except maybe the Flood. I'll take just a base Railgun. I actually hope they do away with the REQ variants of weapons.
