Guilli: Halo Wars has this amazing interface, and perfect controls (imo) It is the best selling console rts (as an xbox exclusive, it sells more than any other console RTS ) so Halo Wars must be the big jump for console rts.
(This are not petitions but possible ideas for you robot, or anyone who still dreams, from your fanbase)
Halo Wars 2 should really be the first big shot of robot, and imo HW2 should feature this.
1-Two campaigns (anyone remembers halo 2?) But covenant campaign should NOT be the same missions only from the other perspective. (you get the idea)
2-Another faction, maybe flood (Multiplayer only) (there's another post with really good flodd-as-faction ideas.)
3-More leaders, up to 10 leaders might be good (keep reading the post and you'll see why.)
4-A massive multiplayer, (in comparisson to Halo Wars') Something like 8v8 (imagine that! just epic.)
5-If you're planing to release new modes for this one also, please include them in the disc! (or at least strategic options should be there.)
6-Halo Wars has only 15 xbox live "slots" so, you are maybe wondering, how are they going to have 8v8, if they're stuck with this modes already.
7-More units, make a more complicated game, a bigger variety of units, add the falcon! (*** it looked good) and the cougar. and other deleted stuff. (has to be accurate to halo's storyline but, you can create your own by focusing on the spirit of fire.)
8-A bigger population cap, if it's not added to 1v1, 2v2, at least on 3v3 maybe 10 units more (start with 40 as unsc-upgrade to 50, and start 50 covie-upgrade to 60. sorry, but in 3v3 you'll have to deal with 3 scarabs.) and in 8v8 add 20 more, (you know how it goes. and yes, DEAL WITH 4 SCARABS! YOU'RE 8 IN A TEAM MAN!)
Well, i think that adding a "random mode" party and non party should be in. (the random modes should be strategic options) or maybe (this is going to sound stupid) ask microsoft for 5 more slots, after all, you're one of the guys that are making those guys rich. (even more now)
Of course this game will be even more balanced than halo wars was right out of the box back in march-april? (It's going to start with the balance issues added in the halo wars TUs)
Ok so this is it, if you have any other ideas they're welcome in this post, like i said, this are not petitions but ideas.
(If anyone thinks the 8v8 is not going to work, party or non party, think twice, how many of us are not waiting for a sequel of this game? and who does not only has 2 other friends playing halo wars?)
I don't know about most of the ideas but if the massive multiplayer is added this is going to be the best rts console ever. (imo)
This has to do with the little bit at the top about Halo Wars being the best selling game. Halo Wars most likely sold because of how popular Halo 2/3 was. So many people played both of them, and surprisingly still do. Alot of people I know bought the game hoping for it to be just as good, but didn't expect it to be an RTS because they were too stupid to actually download the demo or look up information for it. Those who actually knew that the game was an RTS bought it solely for that reason. Such as myself, and I am sure almost everyone else here on the forums who are dedicated players to the game, and dedicated members of this forum are big fans of RTS games, I bet most of them started off from AOE Like I did.
