I was just looking at the Destiny Beta information for which I have signed up for. I got to thinking, about how I loved Halo Reach so much. It was my favorite Halo of all time. It was rustic and not so lonely e.g. it wasn't about Master Chief and is soloing adventures...the color pallette was a little more muted/ colder, You had a squad and felt that there was purpose. There was eventually a hint of sorrow, as you lost various Noble Six personalities that you began to grow attached to. It just left something that resonated...in me, anyway. I then started thinking about how they could do a more rustic and gritty, non-Master Chief-centric story that is in a sort of Destiny-like MMO format that is about you as your own Spartan. Most missions and quests can be done solo(as to not single out those who do not particuarly care to engage in groups), but some bosses/ missions requiring squad-based tactics and perhaps dedicated squad regions(high level regions). I think it's time to start really putting into perspective, the size of the Halo universe. We've only been given doses of it in each title. You can start out at Reach and/ or other Spartan, newb-esque facility and open the ability to graduate the Spartan Program and go to all these stations/ planets as Chief, Sam, Kelly, Linda, Fred and the rest of his kin did. It's a good way to tell the story of the"conception of a Spartan. Imagine storming a beach with your squad, imagine exploring high level Forerunner facilities etc. ...also, imagine your squad all trying to gang up on a tough, high level hunter. This would be fun. Oh! And imagine Onyx as a high-level group/ farming zone.

It's been said 343 Industries are looking to hire people with MMO experience. Could this mean a future Halo game will be an MMO game? Read the article below for more details. Source: Gamespot Microsoft has put out a call for staffers with massively multiplayer online game development experience to join 343 Industries to work on future Halo projects. Two job listings at 343 Industries were posted yesterday, both for software development engineers who will work on "building the next generation of backend services to power Halo 4 and our new game saga." These job listings follow additional requisitions posted last week that indicated 343 Industries was staffing up for mystery "incubation projects." A Microsoft representative declined to comment. If Microsoft is building a Halo MMO, it will not be the first time the company has done so. The Microsoft-owned (and now defunct) Ensemble Studios spent three years on a Halo MMORPG codenamed Titan that reportedly held a $90 million budget before it was canceled in 2007. Microsoft shipped Halo 4 earlier this month to a warm critical reception and day-one sales of $220 million. Halo 5 and Halo 6 have been confirmed as part of the Reclaimer Trilogy, though platforms for these games have not been revealed. Job listings from July suggest 343 Industries is at work on a Halo game for a next-generation platform. Microsoft will reportedly have its next Xbox on store shelves during the back half of 2013.

I found out that there may be a halo RPG in the making, if there is I want to give 343 a little heads up about what we would want if they were making one; how it should play, what we would want out of it, and other things like that. What most people would want out of this a well made RPG that is close to an MMO. An FPS MMO RPG that plays somewhat like borderlands but alot more people
