Havent played multiplayer but on campaign alone I will say 343 succeeded on the things bungie failed. So far there have been no lull points in the campaing where the action is halted.
The pacing is incredible. The areas that you explore are beautiful (Is this a next gen game disguised as a 360 game). The only comparison that I can give: It feels like when you played Mario 64 for the first time when you were little. Almost surreal
<mark>Every weapon is a joy to have in my hands</mark> This is very important. Ive never felt this way in a shooter ever. This includes all past halos, call of duty, anything. Every single weapon in this game has a purpose, an intended range, and beautiful sounds.
The A.I.: Marines are great at fighting from cover. Finally they fight how marines should fight. They flank enemies pop out from cover do some damage and go back into cover. The dive away from grenades consistently. The enemies are out of this world smart, especially the Prometheans.
The Story: Its a great personal story that puts the chief as the center piece. This time around he has something to say and he says it well. Its how we know the chief and they haven’t messed with his personality at all regardless of the amount of lines he has.
Best Halo campaign ever created. Went back to Halo Ce formula by focusing on the chief. Any thoughts?
i think theyve paced it quite well tbf and the marines are actually useful! they havent ran me over or blew me up yet :’)
