2. Improve the graphics

Haze doesn't look terrible, but it certainly looks dated. Free Radical used its own game engine for the PlayStation 3 exclusive FPS, which is a brave decision but one we think probably hurt it. While the Unreal Engine 3 hasn't always produced great games, for the most part games using it look great. Haze's environments seem like a perfect fit for Epic's powerful next-gen engine and now development problems on the PS3 have been sorted out there shouldn't be any issues. Haze looks like a tarted up Xbox game and not a proper next-gen FPS and that needs to change for the sequel.

1. Next-gen AI

For a game released in 2008, a good few years after the dawn of this console generation and years after the original Halo, games with poor AI are just unacceptable. The game tells you that soldiers high on Nectar often don't look where they're going, allowing you to plant grenades in the ground as mines and watch them walk to their death, but that doesn't excuse their generally idiotic behaviour. Team-mate AI is also terrible, highlighted even more when you play with a real person cooperatively. By now games should be offering convincing AI characters, not the brainless robots we got in Haze.
