You dont need to change the gameplay, see if you do that then you would upset many Halo vets who like the origional gameplay, thats what built Halo to be what it is. BUT! there could be different game modes that have different game play.
*About disk space.. why not have a campaign disk and a multiplayer disk?? Thats what they did for L.A. Noire, except it was 3 disks for campaign lol
I have a bunch of ideas for what they could do.
Assassinations:
There should be manny and you could control or block them
Vehicles:
Dont make just in-campaign vehicles, bring it to the multiplayer! ex. Halo 3 transport warthog (itd be awesome for CTF or just messin around.) and the Falcon with the cannon on it or those dunebuggy things. In-campaign both can carry passengers but threy dont let the players use them. Give us some freedom brohski!!!!
Weapons:
Multiple pistols, not just one(odst/halo 2 pistol rocked). Bring back some amped smgs or even dual wield whilst ur at it. Needler Grenade!! Grenades need to be more powerful. Make more weapons, that a real spartan would use or elite would use. Makbe install attatchments or perks on a special muliplaer mode, keep the Halo magic. Make the weapons really feel like they are in the books by Eric Nylund (Ghosts of Onyx and Fall of Reach) the plasma weapons are ******* awesome in them, in game theyre like angry paintball guns lol.
Forge:
Add bots that u can select and place, ex. marines, odsts, 1st gen spartans, Spartans, and covenant; you can set difficulty and teams for them/ objectives. Annd you wont get too lonely forging by yourself on thse late monday nights. BAD ASS!! Allow terrain to be pt down, trees, grass, water etc.. Have a mde where can mess with vehicles and customise them, only for forge variants. And itd be cool to mark up the terrain some too, make foxholes/ craters, so ur not puttin object after object down to make a good trench warefare map.
Gameplay:
Spartans have sprint like in COD, then they can have armor abilities too. Semi destructive environment; im talkin a mixture of Gears of war + Battlefield bad company 2 + Red Faction. Nd apply that to vehicles, it gets lame when meleeing a warthog has the same effect as a Rocket. Semi destructive people; If Halo is gona be M rated (which none of them really need to be) why not add a little BLAP to your guns? Make the sniper look like it did on that Brute in the live action Landfall video, make it look like it has some kick, not a richochet and a small splatter of blood... I wanna see seared metal and a blood cloud (puff) come out of that *******. Then comes gting hit, make it look cool, different weapons have different looking kills. Direct rocket hit? big cloud and bits, or they go fly lol. Headshot-drop, plasma burns-painful grasp and fall, shotgun to the leg, drop to their knee and die.
Armor:
Endless possibilities!! LOOK AT ALL OF THE BOOKS! generation 3 spartans SPI armor helmet was awesome! Use all of those concept art thins out there, not just for spartains but elites too, and have their own kind of attatchments that the covenant would use. And again go to the books, Ship Master Voro from Ghosts of Onyx sounded like one sexy "demon" hater lol. Let Players make ajustments to their armor, ex. remove plates or visor tops etc. Make your spartain, or elite, YOU! Then finally have a game mode where you can play as any covenant or UNSC member, idk, call it Nemesis mode or War mode.. Wanna be a hunter? go for it! wanna be an elite honorguard with dual wielding swords? go for it! Wanna be a hell jumper (odst) and drop into combat 1st person in a drop pod? **** yeah I do! it could be like Halo Wars exceot you can play 1st person with Reach+ graphics.
All of these could be put in and really attract a huuge croud too, just separate game modes so you can make that fair balance for the COD and Halo vets to choose their gameplay. I could go on forever about this lmao but Halo Universe is as good as it gets, the live acion films, books, tv series, vast universe for games, and HOPEFULLY a movie. Halo is like the new star wars, itll be around forever and still be great (But halo is a million times better). Why not go the extra mile to make the halo expirience what is potential amounts up to be? 343 industries will take good care of halo for sure. GOOD LUCK WITH HALO 4!!!!
