Did anyone else think the e3 trailer looked like..

…Star Wars: Republic Commando?

I mean, seriously. One of the squad mates gets “downed” and Locke orders another to heal them.
…like in Republic Commando.

In addition, I think I saw Locke order one of the team members to assume sniper position.
…like in Republic Commando.

I’m not trying to bash the game. Just funny, that’s all.

The top shooters steal ideas from each other all the time.

Tim Longo was the game director for Republic Commando and Halo 5’s creative director so…

And this clearly makes it 100% OK, right, and the best way to do it!

They did a great job in controlling your squad in Republic Commando. If it’s done right in Halo sure, why not?

I love Republic Commando, so underrated. And the best AI comrades I can recall to date.

True that. After all, fans have been waiting for a sequel to Republic Commando for years.

honk GET IN THE FREAKING WARTHOG YOU STUPID MARINE

Bashing the game? You sure aren’t. The chief republic commando guy is working with 343i now because their game got cancelled for star wars. It’s something I’ve dreamed of being in Halo for years and I can’t believe it’s happening. Also dreamed of a battlefield style Halo, war zone, so you can say my dreams have all come true with this game. I’m so hyped.

So true, but it’s multiplayer wasn’t great and it’s campaign rather narratively simple so that might explain it’s not becoming widely popular. But I loved the simplistic mission, military, style of the campaign.

Republic Commando is old
and I believe one of the creators of that game are also involved with Halo 5

I was hoping you would say ugly because the dynamic resolution was crummy and there were frame rate drops abound.

A far better game to rip off of then say… cod? They should take some lessons from id next.

SW Commandos was the -Yoink-. I remember, as a young teen, I would wish they made a halo that was like commandos.

My friend almost had an -Yoink!- when I told him about Tim Longo directing Halo 5.
His gamertag is Sev for a reason.

EDIT: -Yoink!-, just noticed it’s a necrothread

A month and a half necro.

Maybe, but there is soooooo much that makes Halo completely different.
