This Agent Locke could be very good if done correctly. If done well, we will see Chief in a new light and experience what it's like to try to hunt him down. If done wrong than 343i needs help.
The thing with ODST is that we were expecting from the get-go that we WEREN'T going to be playing as Chief.
This is a numbered Halo game - playing as MC all the time is basically a requirement at this point.
At least we'll meet Jameson Locke in Nightfall before Halo 5 so we can decide how much we want to bitch at that point.

Pretty much this^

Anyone hoping SGT Johnson returns
I Also think that what 343 is doing is Insuring the survival of HALO As a franchise even if the decide to Kill
Master Chief

Well then it looks like it may be more of just an Arbiter-type thing. Thank Yehsus!

We didn't actually see his death in H1 and a book covered how he escaped. In H3 we saw him die so sad to say

This is what I was thinking - we never saw anyone say he was THE primary character. People just ran with it.
