I don’t know what the Halo community thinks about the updates for Halo 5, but as far as I know, most of the people like 6/8 of the updates, and this is the reason.
- Shadow and Light: It brought back BTB which is one of Halo’s most famous gamemode.
- Cartographer’s gift: All I have to say is that the update included Forge.
- Infinity’s armory: There were no new gamemodes, but we got the BR from Halo 2 and Mark IV/4 from Halo Wars.
- Hammer storm: Grifball and gravity hammers made a return to Halo 5, even if the weapon should have been in Halo 5 like the other things I’ve mentioned. But why 2 other versions for Helioskrill?!..
- Ghosts of Meridian: This update wasn’t good at all. A new scorpion and a mantis to the collection, now we have 7 of each. A second re-skin for Mark V/5 and IV/4.
- Memories of Reach: Yeah, I don’t need to explain why this update was amazing. But I still miss the falcon…
- Hog wild: What is this? A needler warthog?! I bought this game at Xbox store not Toys"R"us.
- Warzone Firefight: I loved firefight in ODST and Reach! But Halo 5’s version is so much more difficult and challenging.
Summary: The good ones regarding the Halo community are 1,2,3,4,6,8. If you want to know why, then here is your answer. These were the updates that brought back stuff from older Halo games such as Infection, grifball, BTB, old armors, weapons and more.
Note: If I missed anything just let me know so I and others can see. Thank you so much for reading!
