(this is a small portion of the article)
Many reviewers and fans felt the gameplay in Halo 4 was excellent. However, some felt that 343i, fearing backlash if they changed the formula too much, adhered closely to the Bungie model of gameplay. While it is hard to re-invent the FPS genre and trying new things tends to turn off huge fans of the genre (and it is a money making genre, so that is no good). What should happen in Halo 5 is keeping the smart AI enemies, varied and fun weapon selection (adding some new weapons into the mix), but making sure that they move away from the Bungie style of FPS. 343i proved that they can make a good Halo game, but now they should try some new things and experiment with the gameplay. With multiplayer, there is obviously going to be the same structure as that again is a money making model and messing around with it too much will lead to discontent.
I hope they mean they should do the exact opposite.

This is just one person’s reviews and opinions on the game. I highly doubt 343i will actually start to model Halo 5 the way this writer wants it after reading just one sole article.
P.S I don’t think this thread is in the right forum either.
