I’m gonna get a crap load of hate for this but whatever.
I’ve played Halo since CE and spent HOURS and DAYS just living in the Story mode. Love this series. I even named my son, “Axios”.
Lets start with the good or decent but needs work:
This game is absolutely beautiful. Graphics are best in show. Music as well. I think Marty would be proud. The AR, most of the time, actually feels best in show as well as well as the Sidekick. For, what I am assuming is a 9mm pistol, its damn good. Bots are a great addition.
The Hornet felt good, powerful and useful for once.
The BR actually feels like a good Mid-Rage weapon again but also feels… slow…and the
Reticle is trash.
The VK or BAR or whatever it is, pretty good but kicks too much at times. Sometimes is like a laser others its all over the place. Also. Reticle. Sucks.
The Grapple can be a lot of fun but it feels SUPER undefined. I cant Lock on to a wall 20 ft away with it but someone can skyjack me while I’m at flight ceiling height from the ground!? Needs defined range.
Needler feels good but not enough lock-on, very scattershot.
Warthog gun feels accurate, and, thank the Guardians, doesn’t over heat anymore. Reticle_. Is. Trash._
Ghosts feels pretty good, actually useful again.
…Time to Piss off fanbois:
MP in the game feels like the Spineless, Unskilled, Bullsick Deathball from H3 taken up to 11. It. IS. NOT FRACKING FUN! I have had 1 win in BTB because I seem to always get teamed up with the window licking, glue eating, short bus kids who cant tell which end of the firearm the bullets come out of while I’m always teamed against what feel like pro deathballers.
In Games where Deathballing isnt the answer, Those special ed teams can still win. Time to time. Not in H6.
I can get the drop on someone, unload a full AR mag, in to their back from outside melee range, only to have them time and time and time again shrug it off, turn around, charge and shoot or melee me twice before I can swing once or reload or swap weapons. Just. Like. H3.
There is no skill in the MP, just Deathball like a bunch of… I don’t know whats… for the win. Every. Time.
In Bigteam and 4v4.
You have taken all the fun and tactics and strategy out of MP. Just like H3. Gunplay? Doesn’t matter. Skill? doesn’t matter. Landing shots? Doesn’t matter. By the time I know I’m getting shot, I’m already dead. I do not get to react. Every time in MP. Without fail. Just like H3.
That problem doesn’t exist in CE, H2, Reach or even H4. Only H3 and now H6. Frack that! If I want to play games where my skill and shots don’t matter and im insta dead no matter what, Ill go play COD or D2 or something.
Spawns are total bullsick. in BTB, I get spawned 100 miles away from all the action and my team mates. Flag Taken? Here, Far edge of the map for you! No chance to catch up. Ever.
Maps may be larger, but WAY too over crowded with terrain. Cant keep good sight lines for more than a second or two. Short. Long. Doesnt matter. Also, takes forever to get anywhere on foot its so crowded. Cant drive or fly with any room at all.
Sniper is WWWAAAYYY off. Does NOT feel accurate. at. all. Kicks way too much to land two back to back body shots. Much less too inaccurate to land headshots.
Radar. Is. USELESS. By time time it picks up OpFor, they are already right on top of me.
Warthog sounds like a little go-cart. Weak, empty, powerless. Gunner Reticle is trash.
Scorpion is a Brick. Does not move. Or fire accurately. At all.
'Nades are a joke. Stickies go right though people. Or not where you are throwing at all for the rest of them. No distance or bounce to them. At all. Cant Bounce them around Corners, they just hit the wall and fall flat.
Camera Position on ALL Vehicles is WAY too close. Have NO real or decent view of surroundings, much less just the friggin bumber on the Hog.
The Hog does not feel fun or good to drive. Like its engine sound, it feels weak and impotent.
Speaking of weak and impotent: What in the fracking blue blazes is up with little miss “Gold star for just trying” announcer or trainer?!
Holy crap is she just the epitome of “Get a trophy for just showing up” or what!? Why don’t we have Jun or Buck or hell, even Palmer as our announcer instead of this weak Zoomer? Someone with some actual skill, sass, history and demands respect? Instead of little miss “Heres a bandaid for your booboo” nanny. blech Hell, you have IRL Female Marine DI’s and Army DS’s who are legit scary AF!
So no. Not playing this. Will HIGHLY reccomend to all my IRL friends to stay the frack away from this flaming pile of horse sick.
I thought “They couldnt get worse after h5 MP, surely they learned!” Boy, was I effing wrong.
