I feel they're doing this in an attempt to prolong the Halo franchise. They probably think no one wants to play as the Chief forever, so what better way to introduce a new protagonist than having him hunt(and maybe kill) the previous one.

343 has a lot of infamy for rushing out these games.
This should be a tough wall to overcome. Halo 4 and MCC did not instill confidence in the community at all, hopefully people are wise enough to wait and see.

The beta worked fine so I have confidence in the multi-player working. And this date gives me a solid month or so before Treyarch steals the thunder.
Can't wait, can I preload now? ;p

One game is a completely different beast than 4 in 1, and I'm sure 343i & MS learned a thing or two from Halo-MCC. I'd say prepare to be shocked.
lol, he's not gonna kill him.
Locke will meet up with the chief, he will explain what he's really doing, and they will partner up.
It's the twist everyone can see coming a mile away!

Interesting release date. Curious to see what comes out around the same time frame. Bring on E3!
MCC's population went down quick due to the game's major problems. Don't think Halo 5 will face the same fate as long as it's working well at launch.

Isn't Battlefront the first game from DICE? I think EA will market that game to hell and back, particularly with the movie coming out soon it seems like a perfect storm. You are right about AC Unity though, that game was dog-shit and on top of that Watch Dogs in the UK at least outperformed the game quite easily which shows how badly Ubisoft messed up. I've never played Halo but will be getting an XB1 in the winter so hope the game holds a good population, the console will only be for exclusives so hope the likes of Halo 5 and Gears have strong SP and MP components.
LOL please stop this trolling. Halo 4 worked just fine. MCC was NOT in house.
Think just having a static character isn't a good idea for storytelling.
If it launches in October 27th, 2015, when do we think that online will work? Mid-Jan?
Dude, it's not trolling. MS and 343i played their cards with how their handled the remaster of their prestige franchise. MCC was a 343i game. They were responsible for the online and tying all the games together into a whole package. So yeah, it was in-house.

The main problem I have is not necesarrilu find matches but at it gets to the point where most of the people playing are just the very hard core fans and as someone who plays more casually it stops being as much fun
Halo 5's MP quality is very debatable.
What about 4?

The ONI PR machine is strong in the Halo universe. Chief could be billed as a traitor by ONI for trying to bring Cortana back with Halsey's help. If you remember, Halsey was in custody at the beginning of Halo 4. Chief, Halsey and Arbiter will likely be working together.
Based on Halo 4 working pretty much right away, and the Halo 5 beta working well at the end? I'd give it few day cushion, but I bet it works decent day 1. MCC was outsourced to hell and back, Halo 5 (hopefully) isn't being made by 10 studios.

weird date but it's a week or two sooner than i expected. hopefully the game works on that day (and has better writing than whatever that trailer was).
Lmao, I'm done having the same downplaying argument with you in mostly every thread about Xbox One exclusives/Halo.
For those who haven't seen it: The Halo 5 "teaser" in MCC.

When was the last time I trashed Halo 5 in HaloGAF?
Maybe you should stop worrying about what others might think about this game so much.
I already said I was hyped. If you have issues with me saying what's going to happen, then sorry.

that makes sense. i was surprised when i went back to 3 and Reach that i could hold my own. i figured only the hardest of the core would still play it but there were plenty of noobs around.

lol this whiny bitch is the guy we're supposed to care about and want to play as? Nice fan fiction, 343.
Hope this game actually works but I won't be around at launch to find out. Please keep working on MCC so I can still play real Halo.

My daughter's birthday. Nice. I'll buy "her" a copy of Halo 5. I'll just need to show her how to play it.
The shit posts about the game not working are getting shittier. Halp 4 was a technical marvel and there wasn't any problems post launch.

That was surprisingly bad. No awesome music like all other Halo live-action trailers? Terribad voice acting? The armor looked good at least.
October 27th, that's a first for Halo, isn't it? It's usually September/November if I remember correctly. That's cool, I want to see how the campaign turns out. I've yet to play H4.

So. Much. Salt.
Halo 4 was meh, and the story was a mess, but Locke seems to be a more compelling character than they made the Didact be. Also the story seems much more human and less convoluted (so far). Those are both wins in my book.
Cautiously optimistic here. Least we know the gameplay is decent since we actually got a beta this time.

Locke is pissed about MCC still being broken.

October 27th seems like a fine date to me.
I don't understand why people are assuming that Halo 5 will lose momentum by releasing that late in Oct. H4's population dropped because of how people felt about the game. What if Halo 5 ends up being a good game?

Anyways, OT:
This is probably the most hyped a Halo trailer has gotten me since:

I agree, trolls all over the place.
