I thought I was over it, but I am not. I do not like the art direction at all that the series has taken post-Bungie. The vehicles all look like toss! The wraith, who the hell green lit that monstrosity? The pelican, seriously come on, you guys know the old pelican look was awesome! Also gameplay sucks, I hate the movement of this game with a passion, I do commend 343 on the story direction, that is about it because other than that, I feel like I got ripped, but that’s my opinion, what do you guys think, I would love to see some of the community’s opinions.
Ha
Thanks for your opinion! But I and many others absolutely love everything about it!
I love the way the game looks and plays. Leaps and bounds over Halo 4.
great
Your opinion has been noted and you are entitled to it.
I do not concur with your assessment. The fact that Halo 5 is NOT like Bungie era games is a POSITIVE for me.
Seeing how Bungie has bungled their latest franchise I am glad that they are no longer involved.

LOL…
**But REACH was better than H4…so where does that leave ya?**H5 looks awful compared to REACH or H4. The maps in MP are FLAT, BORING, LACKING in detail. Such a waste and so much hype.
im loving Halo 5

That’s your opinion man but I have to disagree with you.Everything about this game is amazing.
I feel like it’ll just take some time to get used to. But it certainly looks worthy of the next generation Halo label. It feels and looks like Halo, but presented differently.
I disagree with you. Halo 5 in my opinion is the best one yet. The art style is gorgeous.
I agree. The art direction (as well as the foley design) has gone downhill, and I believe it all started with 4. I don’t want to sound the “old school fanboy” but I am all for making future Halos like its predecessors. I could go on forever about why 343’s gameplay change decisions are bad for Halo, but that’s not what this thread is about, and surprisingly it isn’t even the thing I care most about. For me, art style and art design is everything to me in Halo.
I genuinely believe 343’s art team don’t know what they are doing. Halo used to have a very distinct and interesting art style that meshed so well with every asset in its arsenal. UNSC and other human vehicles and weapons shared the same gritty, steal look to their textures, while their shape was sharp and thin. Now the UNSC weapons and vehicles are super clunky and quite frankly generic. Look at all of the new versions of old Halo weapons in 4&5. They look like weapons I’d expect to see in Black Ops 3. Now hold them up to pictures of the classic weapons. They look COMPLETELY different from each other.
the vehicles have gotten progressively worse, and so have the weapons (with the AR and Magnum being the only ones who have evolved well enough, in fact I actually think Halo 5’s AR is the coolest looking one in the series), but the covenant races and Forerunners… Whoever was in charge of designing these two factions was an idiot. The elites were by far my favorite species in Halo and they have been reduced to generic alien monsters. It sickens me. And the forerunners… Basically transformers from the Michael Bay movies. It’s sad to see such an awesome and original art style die to such a generic one.

Very well said my fellow Spartan. Well said!
Art style, yes is a bit questionable but gameplay is hands-down the best the series has ever seen. If you dislike it that much, it is either you got your -Yoink- handed to you or you are just blinded by the oh so typical 343 hate.
Guys, this post is from last year. I don’t think you’re supposed to revive threads.

While Destiny failed, it didn’t fail because of its art style. In fact, the art style we see in Destiny is actually very reminiscent of the older Halos, showing immense originality and interesting designs. Destiny failed because of sleazy business practices and a confusing staff set up (people were leaving and things being rewritten last minute). What most of us veteran Halo players want is Halo to return to its roots. We don’t necessarily want Bungie back, we just want the originality and care from the older games. We want Halo to Halo again, not… What is has turned into.
