In Response To: There's pie in that thar sky (Ducain)


1. Online co-op for campaign - a must. I've written quite a few posts about this in the past, so I'll mostly leave it alone here, but again I'll say that a quality campaign game coupled with an effective and enjoyable online co-op experience would keep Halo 3 in the cd tray of many Xbox 360s for many years to come. Here's hoping we get this great feature.

Yep.

2. Wide open levels with the ability to play them through in numerous ways (like SC). I'm pleased to hear (from the updates) that it appears we'll be getting some of this. Excellent news.

No problems with that here. I'd love to see that too.

3. Melee attack to be as identical to Halo 1 as possible. The melee in Halo 2 is just weak and useless in most cases, where Halo 1 it was a vital part of campaign combat. I'm begging Bungie to restore this to its former glory.

What? For me, melee in Halo 2 is even more fun and effective than it is in Halo....sometimes I'll just PP punch Brutes to death for the hell of it.

4. As with number 3, I'm wishing that the grenades resemble their Halo 1 counterparts as much as is possible. The grenades in Halo 1 just felt perfect. They were satisfyingly deadly and ... ya. Can we have them back please? The Halo 2 grenades seemed horrible to me. Please let them die.

Hate to say it, but I agree with you. Though not in as strong a set of terms.

5. No skulls or similar features that change the game physics.

Not just no, but hell no.

I love the fucking Skulls. They let you hit areas you literally could not access otherwise. I just don't....like having to tromp after them. Make them switchable, like you find them and it lets you enter a code or something after you find one to access a menu that lets you switch a skull's effect on and off.

6. Insta-kill areas just suck. Please loose them. Barries - sure. Insta-kill - sucks.

As long as they loosen the horrid fall damage in the first Halo. I like being able to fall a few stories and not be damaged.

7. Campaign stats - wow.

Yes please.

9. Can we have the Halo 1 physics back please?

Personally, I prefer Halo 2's physics, but that's personal preference.
