I'd have to go with Reach. I know, no Master Chief, but it's still the most memorable and compelling Halo story. What do you think?

I can't believe this is up for debate. The Halo CE Campaign is >>>>>>>>> Halo 2-5 Campaigns combined.CE, not even close...
All this Halo campaign talk really has me hoping 343 has figured out the Bungie secret to fun factor. In Halo: CE, if the Covenant spotted you across the map, they'd come after you and sometimes flank you. In Halo 5, it was near impossible to draw them out of their post or zones. Prometheans were especially bad at staying in one spot.
Another thing I remember is in Halo 4 where they had the Covenant and Prometheans battling it out like what commonly happens in Halo 3-way battles. I waited for one of the sides to take the other out. It never happened. They shot at each other like storm troopers for multiple minutes without either side killing each other. What made it uglier is that they were close enough that one side should've charged the other at some point. They barely strafed in their small zones and waited for me to join in the battle.
In Halo:CE, everything was more dynamic. 343s AI is far more scripted. I think this is due to adding sprint since you could theoretically bait enemies to leave their zones and sprint around all of them where as you couldn't do this as easily pre-sprint. 343 has to give enemies sprint ability as well to fix the sandbox and give back the enemies back their dynamic AI.
I've seen Covenant/Promethean battles resolve themselves many times.
I love the original game, but going back after Halo 5, I really have to put myself in nostalgia mode to not be bothered by the Chief's slow pace and lack of movement options.
I didn't mind the Prometheans in 5. They actually have a bit of strategy to take down. As opposed to 4. I would like a new race to fight in 6. More open levels, non linear levels. Play as chief the entire campaign. If do they do bring back Blue Team, I want more personality and backstory to the rest of the team.I think sprint would work in campaign if the battle areas were wider with better lay-outs and Elites could run after you. That and get rid of bullet sponge Prometheans. Also bring back soldiers that have perma death. The squad AI in Halo 5 was attrocious and I hated that they kept respawning.
