Ok anon, you are now the main manager on the new Halo games division in activision, you got the task to prove everyone you are up to the job of saving this tarnished franchise and stick it even more to 343.What studio devs from the cod mines will you pick to help you in this almost titanic task??>Treyarch>Infinity war>SledgehammerOR some third party non related to the cod mines.And no you can't can the game or else we will fire you and call you gay or straight then send a ton of unpaid pizza to your house.
HI
>>749007123give me half of infinity war and half of treyarch, they seem like the only competent guys left in that shithole>>749007164Hi anon welcome to the stre....thread.
>>749007123The only thing that will save Halo is a true sequel to Halo 3 that is feature complete on launch. Slow movement that makes you feel like you're wearing a suit that weighs two tons. Weapons that feel futuristic and powerful. Masculine characters, laconic chief, and military sci-fi tone.Naturally I expect it will launch with literally none of this and the franchise will die.
>>749007313>slow movementyou think this is a good idea but releasing a game with halo 3 slow movement in this day and age is a death sentence.
>>749007381>filling an untapped market niche is a bad ideaYou're fucking retarded
>>749007524nigger everyone dopamine receptors is burned out in some sense, normalfags will hate the game feeling so slow, even late golden years bungie was aware of this by the time reach was in development.
>>749007123What always stands out to me about Halo in the post-shittening of Bungie leaving and Bonnie Ross Studios misplacing the series on a never-ending "Crossmedia Franchising" before any of the Halo Studios shit, is that Halo feels old.Unlike Zelda, Mario, Sonic or other stuff I grew up with, Halo just feels so fucking... boomer tiers of old. It needs to do something about Master Chief. He can't just keep being the bulky guy in a green suit saying his old quips, because so much of Halo's origins was a disgruntled post-9-11 america of nerd developers without principles thinking about the war in Iraq and taliban, while projecting them onto the Covenant and the military jingoism of the series.That inherently does not work in tandem with where we are today, so that HAS to be completely rethought from the ground up. You have to be bold. Make a Halo game where Chief's design is like going from Ninja Turtles to TMNT, and where perhaps there's something that feels like it could be either a US vs China conflict or Ukraine vs Russia, but then make one of the coutnries the new alien species, find something you hate about them from our POV, and then make the chief a caricature of the no-nonsense person going into that fight.Their mistake was treating everything as "Expanded Universe" fiction since Bonnie Ross took the helm. Bungie also started dabbling but had they stayed I don't think they would've gone much further than Reach before taking a drastic shift with the brand in some form.It needs 30 seconds of fun and there's almost nothing wrong with the gameplay except all the Call of Duty sellout mechanics they added. Remove sprinting and make it a really fun arcadey FPS again, but make the conflict feel new and interesting, make Master Chief appealing to upcoming teen generation by catering to modern sensibilities, and make the greatest anti George Soros racist game in disguise ever conceived, where you drop a giga nuke on not-israel.THAT would be Halo again.
>>749007659Masterchief being a emotionless cunt 90% of the time (because he still had its moments of looking surprise back in the og trilogy) is part of its charm, is too ingrained in its character, hell the whole Jhon (X) meme of the generic baddass marine in a shoot game was born from him, he is the OG Jhon.343 biggest sin and mistake was trying to exactly do what you say and give more unnecesary depht to a guy wich biggest strenght was being a strong silent type.
Prequel to Reach about the insurrection and first contact with the covenant. In the beginning you fight humans as a spartan and it shows you just how scary these walking tanks could be. When you start fighting the covenant they make you feel weak in comparison
>>749007832I'm not even asking for Chief to become a CW character, but I'm asking for a new translation of his stoic persona into something that's less boomer-like. Like a lone cowboy in maybe a slightly thinner suit of some kind, but he's still borderline mute, and goes no-questions-asked into some faux WW3 styled conflict against some new aliens that are threatening the galactic establishment, and the game itself isn't too critical of its militaristic jingoism either.But it's new stuff, and it's evoking some of the things we feel today, contra the post-9-11 early 2000s days.because right now Halo is as autistic as Nerd Culture shit, and it shouldn't be. It's franchized itself, into only ever referencing "The Covenant" even though we took care of that 2 decades ago. The "Flood" even though what's the point of that ever coming back again or even a Not-Flood. Stop all of that nonsense. Take a new sci-fi theme, like a space cult or a space tribe or something, and contrast it with a new space war, in which a different kind of Halo artefact is discovered. It doesn't have to be the Ring World this time. It can just be a big city somewhere that's shaped like a ring world and called "Halo" after the rings, but this one isn't being pursued by suicidal zealots and it doesn't exist to kill all life in the vicinity, and it can't even be fired, but it has some other superweapon capability, like whoever occupies the Halo City can basically conquer any species that surrounds it, as they move through space, because it's got the equivalent of all of Earth's military power combined as one, against every other species, so now Chief has to fight the enemies who want to occupy this station because they can't have it. We must have it.And then you can form all kinds of stories out of that.Halo is tired and up its own ass. It has to reinvent itself.
>>749007123I will take blur studio for cinematics and some old guys of Ensemble Studios if somehow they're still alivealso if you could get me Respawn Entertainment and a few guys from DICE it would be nice
give story writing to japan and get waifus on the main plot
>>749008627Man fuck off, in-engine cutscenes only, blur is trash for retards
maybe fortnite 3d artists?
>>749008683 take blur cinematics and build the game engine and assets around them so you play inside the cinematics
>>749007123Halo x-coom like where you go from marines>ODST>spartans (4) in terms of progression. halfway into the game you can even recruit aliens.
More sprint speed lines.
Give me Ravensoft
>>749007123>re-hire the 343 staff>execute each and every one of them in creative ways and record it>hide the recordings as easter eggs in the halo gameAlso the next halo game you play as an elite
