Not true. I love Halo, and there hasn't been a multiplayer FPS that I've enjoyed since Halo 3. Halo reinvented the genre, then proceeded to throw away nearly everything that made it unique. I played 5 at E3 and it was fun, but I don't think there's any skill involved in grinding 600 hours for the insta-kill weapon, which is how basically every FPS is nowadays. COD clones. If 5 is a return to form, I'm stoked. Count me in day one. If it's more of the same bullshit, it's just another cod clone, so why not just play cod?

Do you watch sports?
 
Neato! I want a Xbone just for this game.

No nextgen console here yet, so it could very well be the title to finally make me get one.

Don't play Warzone.
 
Fuck now that's a great live action trailer. Much better than the one they released a few days ago. Got me pumped. Solid.
 
Like how they are showing master chief can sprint now

I thought the trailer was great....until the Locke dialouge, the man uttered 2 words and I was just like "nope, this guy sounds like a tool"


Which is funny because he is ONI's tool, but not the type of tool i meant

if you're a Halo fan and not a CoD fan then you know a bad Halo game is still better than playing CoD.

This is the first Halo game I've ever gone into completely lost on the lore. Its the first one I have no idea whats going on. I know that was also a giant complaint from the broad demo on Halo 4

Stinkles if you read this are you guys going to do a good job getting everyone up to speed with this game? Not everyone wants to sit down and listen to 3+ hour audio sitcoms. Most people are going in just playing Halo 4 and then Halo 5. Not reading books, comics, and listening to an audio series
 
Better than the last trailer, but nothing that got me that excited. You guys are an easy crowd to please huh :P

There is no Halo FPS game that involves grinding to unlock power weapons in competitve multiplayer.. Halo 5 has Arena for even and competitive play. Then it has warzone for all out huge team chaos with microtransactions and stuff. There's a huge demand for both of those types of play.

You honestly are coming off as an uninformed bandwagon "Halo copies COD" angry dude.

Chief has been sprinting since the trailer of Halo 3, if not earlier lol.

I think he's referring to Hunt the Truth which is as far away from a sitcom as you can possibly get.

I have no idea what it is and neither will 90% of people who buy this game. Thats why I'm asking. I have no idea whats going on in Halo anymore and am wondering if there will be a good synopsis.

You could tell me Hunt the Truth was a XXX porno Halo parody and i would have to take your word for it

Okay, 2 things:

Firstly, HtT has not, so far as anybody can tell, introduced anything that's going to seriously influence the plot of Halo 5. At least, nothing that couldn't be explained a couple of seconds of dialogue.

Secondly, listen to Hunt the Truth. It's amazing. It won a Clio, it's getting written up in Time of all places, Mark Hamill reached out to them because he really wanted to be in season 2... it is, simply put, astonishingly good.
 
I think it's a good question as to how much HTT will play into Halo 5. It seems to be great but I too hope it isn't too heavy in it's involvement with 5. I don't really have the time or interest to listen to something like that and like Obliterator, I'm pretty much going into 5 with the knowledge from 4.

Chances are you wont have to listen to hunt the truth to understand the story in halo 5...

Like all of the other extended lore, it's a great supplement to the games, and provides back story, but is not crucial to understand the games...

Halo's 1-4 also had a tons of external media, but you seem to have been fine without out any of it... Just keep doing what you are doing...

http://bestgameever.co.uk/2015/09/29/halo-5-guardians-chatting-with-josh-holmes-from-343/

BGE: Is there any concern for fans new to the series to be overwhelmed with Halo lore? I’m happy to see Blue Team, but new players may wonder who they are, and why they should care – how do 343 alleviate that issue to ease players new to the series in gently?


Josh: One of the great strengths for Halo is the depth of our universe and lore. We want fans of the lore to feel rewarded for their knowledge, but it can’t be a requisite for understanding and enjoying the games. The campaign for Halo 5 has been designed to be enjoyable as a self-contained story. We have additional details from the extended universe available to players who wish to explore and consume all of the supporting narrative, but those shouldn’t be necessary to understand the central storyline for the game. At the same time, there can be an assumption made that just because a character or place has been explored in the novels or comics, all of that extended story needs to be surfaced in the game in order to make sense. That’s not necessarily the case. There is an economy to storytelling and we strive to provide the necessary amount of information without weighing things down. Comparing this game to Halo 4, I think we’ve done a better job in this regard but ultimately that will be up to players to decide.

I think you'll be pleased with the direction 343 has gone in with Halo 5.

The classic Arena multiplayer you loved in Halo 3 is back, and with none of the ordinance or loadouts that ruined Halo 4. Everyone starts with an Assault Rifle and a Pistol just like they did in Halo 3, with weapons such as the Battle Rifle, Sniper Rifle, Rocket Launcher, Energy Sword, and so on in set locations on the map. The biggest difference between Halo 5 and the previous Halo games are the new abilities they have introduced. Here's a basic rundown of what they are:

  • Sprint: Self-explanatory, but now in Halo 5 your shields don't recharge while sprinting and the gap between base movement speed and sprint speed has been decreased, meaning that you still move at a perfectly reasonable pace while not sprinting.
  • Thrusters: Similar to the Thruster Pack ability in Halo 4, except you stay in first-person while using it and the cooldown is shorter (but not to the point where you can spam the ability).
  • Ground Pound: Look at the ground and hold the melee button while you're mid-air and you will charge up your thrusters to launch you towards the ground dealing damage in the area where you land. It is not an instant kill and it is most commonly used to weaken the shields of an enemy player.
  • Spartan Charge: While sprinting, hold the melee button to charge a short distance forward and knock back opponents. An instant kill if performed on an enemy's back, but anywhere else and it will just weaken their shields.
  • Slide: If you hold crouch while sprinting, you will slide a short distance and when you stop, you will be crouched. Makes going under crouch-height obstacles smoother. You can shoot while sliding.
  • Clamber: If you jump up to a ledge above you but aren't quite high enough to make the jump, press the jump button again to climb onto the ledge. This introduces "clamber jumps" but this does not mean crouch jumps have been removed.

It is important to note that all players have these abilities: every single one. You don't pick one at the beginning of a match, every single player is equipped with all of them at once. It's an even playing field for everyone.

If you have heard of Halo 5's REQ system and are worried about players being able to call in special weapons and vehicles they got out of REQ packs, don't worry. In Arena, the classic Halo multiplayer segment of Halo 5, the only items from REQ packs you can use are the cosmetic ones (weapon skins, armor, helmets, special assassination animations, etc.) The weapons and vehicles from REQ packs are for a totally separate mode called Warzone which is 12 vs. 12 on maps 4 times the size of a typical Halo map. The mode is a bit complicated to explain, but fortunately there's plenty of resources available on YouTube and Halo Waypoint that can do it more eloquently and concisely than I can.

I hope you'll give the game a shot when it comes out. If classic Halo 4v4 multiplayer is what you're looking for, the game has you covered.
