All players are defenseless. The opponent can run, climb, jump, thrust, charge, and even skydive. Your radar is a tiny, useless defense. The small maps just catalyze this effect. Along with the incredibly accurate weapons, this game plays way too fast. One player’s skill is no match for another’s speed and luck.Getting killed from behind without a chance to retaliate is not Halo. Halo has always given you the chance to defend yourself.
Does anyone else agree?

Can all be used defensively what are you talking about? The game is all about skill if you are getting killed because people are using their abilities against you then you just lack awareness and skill sorry OP.
Yeah they need to patch the radar
Every single thing you mentioned can be used defensively, and the radar is just shorter in this game, making sure players have legit tactical awareness instead of artificial awareness. So…
But you can’t have 360 degree tactical awareness unless you have a functioning team. And yes, it can be used defensively, but that doesn’t keep it from making gameplay so fast that skill takes a backseat.

Exactly, You just need to learn to use the new mechanics to fit your playstyle
The fact of the matter is, they made a Call of Duty/Halo hybrid. It has pros and cons (ex: pros: its fun for people who want a change of pace from COD. cons: Halo is now partly a twitch shooter.). They honestly tried to cater to all people and in a way they made a great attempt since Black Ops is doing God knows what with these classes which are sort of cool but ehh, but to me, this isn’t the Halo that I’ve seen before. This is different, from the controls to the actual visuals on armor. This is a faster paced competitive play game now. I cringe at the thought of these future MLG videos.

I agree 100%.
Skill can only do so much. All of these added abilities add unpredictability and a sort of randomness. There is a lot of luck that you cannot combat. This is why I say that Halo 5 will not last; it lacks the depth of the old Halos.
Agree 100% that the motion mechanics make 4v4 game play fast enough that it’s way outside my comfort zone. That said, I gave up team slayer along time ago, and in warzone these mechanics can be a little less of a factor depending on your play style. Motion tracker definitely feels off.

I agree with this guy, if you don’t know how to properly use the abilities or how to defend yourself against other people that use them against go the then you really are not aware of what’s happening.
A lot of my friends don’t like playing CE with me because of the “randomness” and “luck” that comes with mini-nukes and 3sk from across the map with the magnum.
So … I don’t know. I agree a little bit. The radar is starting to get annoying.
I thought it was just me with that radar. I started believing that I was just blind when people just showed up right behind me. I look into the radar quite a lot.
But I have to disagree on the “Too fast” part. Today I played a game and realized how enjoyable the pace is. Might sound crazy, but it kinda felt like Halo 3 to me.
I agree.

You mean everything you can do as well?
What are you even talking about? It has the same ttk as previous halos. The only thing different is that other weapons are finally useful
*doublepost
They just need to improve the radar

Exactly it’s like you’re able to pick up anything and get kills now. Idk why ppl think one weapon being the boss is fun…
Halo 5 is way too fast. I love the game. BUT everything that made halo 3,2,CE so much more skilled based and fun are not present in this Halo 5. This is almost like COD, a run and gun shooter with very little time to think, react, etc. Arena team slayer gets very annoying and furiously frustrating when your a rank Diamond, with the constant losses. Smg’s, grenades,pistols, and other weapons that were once almost useless, required more smart tactics and skill to get a kill with now is just wayyyyy to OP. People spam Grenades left and right and it’s just a mess. SMG’s melt people shields so quickly, and pistols can kill someone who has a Carbine or BR in certain circumstances. It’s stupid frustrating. And what happen to spawning power weapons to both sides like back in Halo 3. Getting a power weapon in this game is unbearably annoying. When you try to get Sniper you 95 percent of the time die and don’t even get a small chance to use it. You either pick it up and die immediately, pick it up and try to run away and the whole team is after you, and lastly your the only one trying to get it. More than sometimes I find myself unable to get the sniper cause my teammates don’t back me up or there are not there to pick it up for themselves to avoid enemy getting the sniper. The variety of maps is seriously lacking in this game as well. Also shotgun and swords are not considered powered weapons anymore so they don’t show on the field like the others, so if somebody on the other team knows where that weapon is they could seriously give their team and edge to victory. Radar is to close in this game. By the time I see who is behind me they would have killed me by melee or assassination. There is no reaction time in this game. The only mode that I truly enjoy just to have fun in is Warzone. Arena is filled with TOOO much competition. It’s not even fun. You can’t sit back and enjoy slayer cause if you do you will get punished left and right. Halo 5 is wayyyyy to fast, too much run and gun, no more thinking tactical or having more skill than other players, all guns have been amped up to help noob players. HALO 3 ALL THE WAYYY!!!
