HaloWithStyle

A good idea I thought of for Halo 5 is an armor ability that allows you to possess an enemy for a short period of time. You would aim towards the person you want to possess and hit the button then take control of them for about 10 seconds allowing you to do anything you want with them whether it be betraying their own teammates or simply making them commit suicide. Discuss.

Lol I was jk about this

I've been thinking about what abilities could be added to Halo5 that would feel new and fresh... One interesting idea I had was Horn, when acitivated it would emit a loud horn type noise that would be used to frighten and confuse the enemy. For example you could be hiding around a corner and when someone from the other team runs past without noticing you you could sound your Horn giving him a hell of a fright then while he's spinning around in all directions trying to find the source of the Horn you can sneak up and assasinate him from behind. Perhaps steam could issue from the joints in your armor while the Horn in sounding to give it extra effect? Discuss.

I agree. I loved Reach's jetpack, even the noise it made was better IMO

One of the things I like most about Halo campaigns is the epic things you can see in the background/skyboxes and the amazing scripted events etc... What can they do that would actually be new and original? not only the skyboxes but actual gameplay sequences too. They've done zero g eniroments and space battles but what news things can they come up with that will actually be mind blowing? My best moment so far was in Halo3 when the frigate comes down to drop off the tanks on The Ark then going into bttle in the tank while marines had a tank of their own... that really amazed me the first time I played it. Dropping down in the ODST pod in first person blew my mind also.

It should be the ultimate Halo game so far... with eveything you mentioned and more. One thing I missed in Reach and 4 was that "smooth feel", I mean little things like highjacking, getting in and out of vehicles, general movement just felt glitchy compared to the perfect smoothness in Halo 3. Also vehicle explosions weren't as good as in Halo 3 (Ghost and Banshee in particular). Another thing in Halo4 that felt off was when you kill covenant it didn't feel as satisfying with the way their bodies just did the same fall down animations everytime, even Reach had better ragdoll effect.

crashing into the sun and all... what would that mean for season 2? would all the new maps be on new areas? also did anyone find it funny in the very last mission when the gravity was going crazy? seeing me and all the other players getting thrown randomly around the cave was hilarious

I liked to save my first playthrough campaign videos so I was disappointed that they didn't include that. What would be the reason? Time restraints? laziness?

So how come all the human buildings etc on Requiem look like they've been there for decades when MP and Spartan Ops takes place only 6 months after the campaign? There's even rocks forming over walls like tree roots growing wild.

Yea I was disappointed by this because ever since Halo3 I've always saved my first playthroughs for campaign so I can go back and see how it was for me.

This is a very minor thing but is there a way of seeing the animation for when you pick up the promethean weapons for the first time? they only happened once for each weapon and on my second playthrough it doesn't do it again.

Does the aliens speaking english kind of ruin the illusion abit for anyone else? Like how the Diadact and Librarian both speak perfect english as if it's their native tounge. I know it's probably better than 343 making up their own language and having subtitles but still...

In Halo3 the banshee had perfect smooth, elegant handling/controls but in Reach they made it horrible. I thought 343 would understand that but they made it pretty much the same in Halo4 as it was in Reach. Does anyone else hate the banshee in Reach and now Halo4? Also the explosion of the banshee looks worse in Halo4 than it did in Halo3... same with the ghost and phantoms, their explosions are just ugly compared to how they were in Halo3.

The funniest moment for me was when Captain Del Rio was pointing at Chief's face screaming "ARREST THAT MAN!! ARREST HIM!!"... hilarious.

Prometheans...
