Halo Wars 2
Hear me out, guys! This is still related to Reach, read on:
So, I liked Halo Wars. I found it to be addicting and I still play it quite a bit. I hoped that the people who were once Ensemble made a sequel, but with Halo: Reach being announced and all, I thought... Wouldn't it be cool if two of these games were released on the same date, following the Battle of Reach?
Reach would be FPS, HW2 would be an RTS, but both would follow the same conflict, just on a slightly different storyline (with a crossover between games?). I personally think that would be awesome. I don't think there will be, or if there will it won't be out on time, Halo Wars 2, though. I just thought that it would be a pretty good idea. What do you think?
-
While its a good idea, the original Halo Wars takes place 20-25 years [i]before[/i] Halo: Reach and Halo: CE. Unless it doesnt follow the same set of characters, I doubt it'll happen.
-
Please, no Halo Wars 2. It just doesn't look and feel like Halo. If Halo didn't exist, and they made Halo Wars, it would just be some other random RTS that would get dumped really quick.

Good idea! Too bad Ensemble died
-
No. Just no.
-
What would be extremely awesome would be if the two games were linked in multiplayer. If the Wars players could move most of the units around while the people playing reach played in 1st person as super kickass hero units.

Uh sir, you might wanna run for the hills... Halo Wars was good, but once I beat campaign... Lulz, I've had this game since the second it was released and I still have yet to play ONE online multiplayer game. I don't think it was a waste of 60 dollars, I'll get back on it eventually, I'm just not in the mood for it now... Lulz, and I have (and am getting) all the DLC for the game too, yet I haven't used it once lol!

well halo wars had a good run and its time for them to lay to rest R.I.P. halo wars

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Steelix1993 i hated halo wars.. i aint even finished it the only decent thing about it was the cinematics and they were a fleeting reward.[/quote]Thats because your mind is tactically inferior to others. Loved Halo Wars, best console RTS ive played. But if I had the choice i would choose the FPS version everytime, just because i feel as though thats how Halo should be played. But Halo Wars did a lot right and not many things wrong.

@ Peter99Dineen I cant argue there, AoE 2 is still one of my favorit rts games, but it went downhill from there, the third game was awfully boring. And Halo Wars could just as well have been Stargåte, it didnt feel Halo at all, and the cutscenes werent even made by Ensemble, they were made by Blur studios. And the gameplay.. dont get me started there, click for explosions yay! No tactics whatsoever. [Edited on 07.18.2009 6:44 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I RossH I I love the idea of the two being related, but I would need a month between them. It was hard enough choosing between Halo Wars or the Mythic Maps, I think my mind would overload choosing between a Halo (Pre)Sequel and a Halo Wars Sequel...[/quote] What do you mean with "or the Mythic maps"? I got the Mythic maps when I bought Halo Wars.
-
[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] the real Janaka Both Halo Wars and Ensemble Studios equals fail. If someone were to make Halo Wars 2, it should be Massive Entertainment. But why two games about Reach?[/quote]Ensemble Studios have made sone of the most enjoyable games I have ever played, Halo Wars was a dissapointment imo but Age of Empires was still a great series.

that would be a classic nintendo strategy. releasing the same game but in different colors (red and blue) with a few different pokemon to maximize profitz. wildly successful. that could work the same way with halo reach and halo wars 2.
-
They provided the story? Well. I guess you learn something new every day.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] zombieboss71 YEAH!!!! BUNGIE DID AN AWESOME JOB WITH #1!!!![/quote] they didnt make halo wars but they did provide the story so it is legit.
-
would like halo wars 2. but not the same day. to much to buy and play at once. i like it spread out so i dont get board at times and other times there i too much at once. thats why i hope halo reach beta launches 1-2 weeks after odst.

Plot twist, whatever. You could escape or something at the end and take revenge by putting fireworks in Tartarus' toilet.
-
well i dont think that everyone would want to buy the game twice, but a cool version would be both games together for 100 bucks. it would be called halo reach still. but 2 games in 1.
-
So you want two games where you have to lose? instead of just one.
