I could see this happening. I'm expecting we'll see another 4 man squad, but only one you play as through the whole game. Maybe Chief, Locke, Arbie, and Palmer. Unless arbiter has graduated to a character too badass to be playable.
He was the real BAMF of Halo 5.
WAY too badass.
Still needs to happen, tho. Roster of... let's see, Fred, Linda, Kelly, Locke, Buck, Vale, Tanaka, Arby, Palmer. Pick 3. Would be AMAZING.
Yeah it'll be interesting to see what sticks from 5. Going forward it's hard to imagine ever playing as 4 Chiefs again (nothing wrong with that, but now there's something else in place)
Also I really hope the turn around for 6 is quicker, now they've built the engine up. Wonder if we'll see visual improvements like Halo 3 to Reach or 4. But yeah, already hungry for more.
I kind of doubt 6 will look all that much better. Splitscreen is basically guaranteed, after the shitstorm this time around, but that's going to require significant engine work (probably) so I wouldn't expect a quicker-than-usual turnaround.
We might get another spinoff first, actually.
I really like the idea of Halo 6 keeping the 4 man squad, but letting us pick our teammates. Chief + 3 others. Expand on the perk system (for campaign only, pls) to differentiate them further. Maybe include loadout options.
Yes! I'd love to have the ability to customize the weapons too.
Customizable weapons would be pretty baller. Again, only for campaign. Keep the current system in place for Arena and Warzone.
Do you guys think we'll get a second Cortana to replace the one that went batshit crazy?
Doubt it. They're cut off from most of the infrastructure that Halsey would need to produce another Cortana model. Unless she's already got one in the wings, Roland is most likely going to be the primary AI moving forward. Or BB if they can find him.
