I just want to say a couple things real quick.
First of all, Halo 5: Guardians is an amazing game & in my opinion it’s right up there on my top 3 list with Halo 2 & Halo: Reach. Not only does its have a great campaign & story, but a really entertaining multiplayer as well. And with the launch of Forge, it is even better!
Secondly, I know that not all of you agree with me or others on this & I understand. We are all entitled to our own opinions. However, some of you (None specifically.) can be quite rude to not only 343industries, but to the fans of these new Halo games as well. My point is to quit trying to shame us for liking a given game & saying that we are not “True Halo fans” & we are also the problem. Instead, maybe you should be polite & state what you like & dislike in a civil manner instead of ranting & smack talking.
That is all & thank you. 
I played halo ce on pc back in the day, and every game consecutively, read all the halo books, and have spent more time playing halo than any other game ever, and I like halo 5. Quality of life could use some improving but so far I’m really happy with what we have gotten.
I wish there was more of this type of calm discourse in the community.
It’s really nice to see people actually enjoying the game like me. xD
To me Halo 3 is my favorite game. There will never be another halo game as good as that one. Halo 3 is bungies best work and they will never produce another game of that caliber. 343i will never producer a game of that caliber. 343i doesn’t want anything to do with Bungie. They want to be different and leave their own mark.
In my opinion this isn’t good. They had a model to improve upon. They didn’t improve it. They took so many little things out that made Halo, Halo which ruined H5 for me.
My top favorite HALO games till now:
- Halo 2
- Halo 5
- Halo 3
- Halo CE
- Halo Reach
- Halo 4
- Halo 3 ODST
- Halo Wars
- Halo Spartan Strike
- Halo Spartan Assault
What was I thinking! They’re all great :,3
too bad once the servers go down you won’t be able to play it. hows that for timeless replay value for something you paid at least 60+ dollars for. When I buy something, I am looking for the long haul which I am going to question 343i next time I see them selling a product.
the fact is this some people think the game is bad and is annoying yes but is also the same with the people who extremely loves h5 that they do anything to prove you’re wrong when most of the times what they say don’t make sense, but anyway i don’t enjoy it too much but it’s fun for me at least play it 2 times at a week but for the people who already likes the game like it is i don’t see the pointing of complaining you already got what you like don’t ya? (i personally think the game could be better it’s not the best at least for me but anyway i’m not trying to offend anyone i’m just saying what i see in this forums and many others)
Reach is on XB1 today, so I decided to take a break from Halo 5 to do a massive campaign run through all the games. I just started mission 2 of Reach (still have to get through rest of Reach, CE, H2, ODST, H3, H4, and H5) and I’m already itching to get back to Halo 5. Not sure if I’ll make it. lol
I won’t go into detail, but I dislike Halo 5 for a lot ot reasons. I also like I for a lot of reasons. In short, Campaign was an insult to me (personally, I know some liked it), and I find the competitive focus to really be a kick on the balls. However, there are so many awesome gameplay and Arena stuff. Nothing is perfect, but this game was very disappointing in a lot ot ways and continues to disappoint but I don’t hate it.
Original trilogy (for me) will never be defeated, and I loved Wars. I liked ODST, and I detest Reach. Loved Halo 4, and I only like 5’s Arena, while Campaign was awful and Warzone is a letdown.
