Halo is not dark and gritty, it is one the most colorful fps out there, it has had serious or dark subjects though yes, the story is more of like action adventure, but putting it like that really dumbs it down. It is not dark and gritty though.

Is a thread like this supposed to make me feel bad for really liking the demo and being excited for the game? Such a killjoy.

Wait, sprint is what makes halo less dark and gritty? We are talking about a super solider here, he can sprint. People need to get over this. If we were still with the same design and mechanics of Halo 3, it’d be 100 posts a day about how halo need to revolutionise itself because it’s getting boring. Just chill, and enjoy the ride, man. We are getting AN OPEN WORLD HALO GAME? I’m down man, give me the grappling hook, give me the ‘crappy’ graphics, this. Game. Looks. Hella fun.

I wonder if we could get an autograph?

Apparently this was supposed to be a last-gen game but they had the sense to hold it out until the next-gen Xbox.
This can explain why it looks last-gen.

Some of the stuff is most likely unfinished and will be polished up for the release.

How is the warthog fine. The proof is when he drives it. Tell you see dirt moving correctly . Please tell me because I don’t see it.

Yeah it’s awesome but it doesn’t belong in halo the same way Spartan charge doesn’t belong

No I wasn’t complaining about halo 4 and 5s demo. Take a look at them actually . They look better then what we saw a day ago.

Give it a chance? No. I got slapped in the face

Lol the books that came out before halo CE. There was one book before CE and it came out two weeks beforehand. Calm your beard.

Also, comparing the Slip Space engine to literally the most advanced game engine on Earth iD Tech 7 give 343 i. a break smh.

You just don’t get it. Look at the ending of halo 5. Now look at the cutscenes of halo infinite . It doesn’t connect. BLUE TEAM EXISTED BECAUSE EVERY SPARTAN WAS ON A TEAM. black team. Red team. Blue team. This is how I know you don’t know the story of halo because halo isn’t just master chief . It’s all of the Spartan program that helped save the human race. Again this isn’t an opinion. I’m pulling facts from the original source of halo which is the books and game of early halo.

Reach is actually forced. They shoved in a team that didn’t even exsist . It was also the first game to introduce loadouts and sprint. Go figure. Halo reach should’ve been about the actual story of the fall of reach.

Odst isn’t forced because it told a story of an odst. Which actually helps my argument that it’s not all about master chief

When you say something like halo should have a submarine . Thats an opinion. When you say halo should follow the source material of what halo was made out of isn’t an opinion.

This is how they get you to submit . Just take a look at the removal of the 12 month sub to gold. They want you to buy into the ecosystem and they don’t care how they do it. Even if it means releasing an unfinished game

IT’S A FRAGGING GAME!

I don’t care if the game is good or not.
I don’t care if it’s 343i or Bungie.
I don’t care if it’s Open World or Linear.

Games are supposed to be fun to who love it, and nonexistent to those who don’t like it.
If you like it, Stick around and enjoy yourself.
If you don’t like it…

SUCK IT UP, SHUT UP, LEAVE, AND NEVER COME BACK!!!

(And don’t trot out the (over/miss)used excuse of it being constructive criticism.
There is a difference between constructive criticism, (“The Warthog’s sound could’ve been better”)
and bratty b**ching. (“This demo sucks”)

Does it coming out two weeks before make it any less halo? It litterally explains how he got on the pillar of autumn and your ganna ignore the importance of that?

How is Reach forced and ODST isn’t? ODST also introduced a team that didn’t exist. And forced is such a terribly generic critique, tell me why it was forced. Noble Team was purpose built for Halo: Reach, they are essential to the game’s plot, so there’s nothing forced about them. Talk about double standards.

Blue Team, in real life reasons, exists because they were made as characters for a the EU books. Let me show you the difference. Master Chief in real life exists to be the protagonist of Halo, which is what he was made in real life for, but in the lore he was made as a part of the Spartan program. I know Halo isn’t just Master Chief, never claimed it was- the Arbiter is my favorite Halo character. So I’m not sure what you’re on about.

You’re still not addressing what I said. If Blue Team is the reason that a Halo game is a Halo game, then why did you basically just say that Halos 1-4 are not Halo games. According to you, those games do not have Blue Team= those games are not Halo games. Explain.

I say again…if you don’t like a game…then leave. True Gamers are not mindless and eat up everything under the Xbox/PS/Nintendo name…they explore, they research, they sift through the hay for the needle…and the Gaming community has too many people being extremely negative, ^case and point^, to make a conclusive decision on any game.

Negative? How are you not upset about this. You want to talk about any other game then yeah it’s just a game. This is halo. This is the big flagship title. The system seller
The reason to own an Xbox.
And again I am leaving but not without saying what needs to be said. Just because you don’t like the truth won’t stop me from saying it. I’m not alone either. Just take a look at the likes on the post and it’s rising. I’m insulted that you call valid criticism as mindless.

Bruh the story of Halo is based around mass genocide and yet you’re here saying only halo 2 and reach were dark, are you serious? Halo 3 had missions like floodgate and Cortana and CE had quotes like “nothing but dust and echos” and missions like Keyes. Are you even aware of the games which you talk about? Halo 5 was literally power rangers in comparison and Halo 4 was nothing more than a sob story. Now we got infinite looking like fortnite. The flood will never be back in a first person 343 game because that will upset their teen rating same as blood on the floor.

  1. I’m not upset because I’m just here to have fun playing a GAME!!!
  2. Halo is no more important than any other FPS GAME!!!
  3. It’s s system sell/flagship title because it has been put on a pedestal. there have been much better FPS/FPA games on Xbox that don’t get NEARLY as much attention.
  4. There is a difference between “truth” and “opinion”, look it up.
  5. I wouldn’t be saying this if you were alone. This wave of white noise and hate screams needs to be quelled. THEY’RE GAMES!!!
  6. Based on what I have read…I’m not surprised you’re insulted…Karen.

The entire reason chief is even there is because of the help of blue team. He didn’t do it alone. He was never alone. He had blue team at his side . People are quick to forget that the book came out first. Not the game. This is not an opinion . An opinion would be oh I don’t like Promethean designs . Fact is they are removing what makes halo, halo.

> > >
> > > That is your opinion. The fact of the matter is that Blue Team existed only to have characters in the books. Halo games have not had Blue Team for years. I don’t care if the book came out first or if it came out at all, that’s EU material that I’m not concerned with.
> > >
> > > I don’t have to look at any book summary, I know what the summary is, and once again it’s an EU book. It’s 100% your opinion that they should’ve made that book a game. I’m not sure what that has to do with the grappling hook either.

> > You just don’t get it. Look at the ending of halo 5. Now look at the cutscenes of halo infinite . It doesn’t connect. BLUE TEAM EXISTED BECAUSE EVERY SPARTAN WAS ON A TEAM. black team. Red team. Blue team. This is how I know you don’t know the story of halo because halo isn’t just master chief . It’s all of the Spartan program that helped save the human race. Again this isn’t an opinion. I’m pulling facts from the original source of halo which is the books and game of early halo.

> >
> > When you say something like halo should have a submarine . Thats an opinion. When you say halo should follow the source material of what halo was made out of isn’t an opinion.
>
> How is Reach forced and ODST isn’t? ODST also introduced a team that didn’t exist. And forced is such a terribly generic critique, tell me why it was forced. Noble Team was purpose built for Halo: Reach, they are essential to the game’s plot, so there’s nothing forced about them. Talk about double standards.
>
> Blue Team, in real life reasons, exists because they were made as characters for a the EU books. Let me show you the difference. Master Chief in real life exists to be the protagonist of Halo, which is what he was made in real life for, but in the lore he was made as a part of the Spartan program. I know Halo isn’t just Master Chief, never claimed it was- the Arbiter is my favorite Halo character. So I’m not sure what you’re on about.
>
> You’re still not addressing what I said. If Blue Team is the reason that a Halo game is a Halo game, then why did you basically just say that Halos 1-4 are not Halo games. According to you, those games do not have Blue Team= those games are not Halo games. Explain.

I’ll gladly explain

In the book halo: fall of reach noble team was not mentioned. You know what was? Blue team and master chief . That’s what halo reach should’ve been.

I’ll check the story of odst and cross reference it with the comics and books made around it and if it’s true that it was a made up team just for that game then yes odst is forced and it should be a story about an odst team that already exsisted

Blue team is interwoven between the stories of 1 -4. If you remove blue team you simply can’t explain the story of 1-4 halos. Like yeah blue team wasn’t in the game but they set the events for the games to happen and idk why your ignoring that. Without the books , how did chief get on the pillar of autumn? Youc explain it and this is fact

I don’t think you get what I mean about forced. There doesn’t need to be new characters and new timelines of stories. There is already plenty you could make a great game on. For example. BLUE TEAM.

In any of these points not once have you acknowledged the problems of this demo
Not one time.
You ignore and say “I need to be quelled”
Learn to disprove my words before you call halo “just a game”
