Hello, I'm just doing some research for a fun project I might have coming up. For the purposes of this poll, I would like for you to evaluate the missions strictly from a gameplay perspective, it's not that I don't think things like Story or Aesthetics or all that stuff isn't important, it's just not the kind of information I'm looking for with regards to my project. Any anecdotes for why you like a particular mission over the others or extended lists of preferences is also appreciated :)

  • It's always been a though choice for me between The Ark and The Covenant. Both offer a fairly varied set of encounters. But evaluating more objectively, my vote goes for The Covenant. To be perfectly frank, this feels kind of unfair for the other missions that just weren't designed to be centered as much around vehicles. But it just happens to be The Covenant is a great display of the variety of the sandbox of Halo, and what it's capable of. The Covenant has outdoors gameplay, indoors encounters, an aerial battle, a short tank section, the Scarab battle, Flood, and so on and so forth. The level was really designed to show of the diversity of gameplay that you can have in Halo. If I really wanted to show someone all the things that are possible in Halo, I would undoubtedly do it with The Covenant because it just has a little bit of everything. There are undoubtedly levels in the Halo 3 campaign that do specific things a lot better than The Covenant. But The Covenant brings that all together in a way where the blame is more on the length of the sections rather than their particular designs. It mostly only suffers from problems which have more to do with the gameplay design and limitations of Halo 3, rather than the particular level.
