So before I start this rant, I’m just glad that they have a beta, and hope the I am wrong.
Anyways, from what I’ve seen of H5, I am not impressed.
Minor Issues:
-SMG looks too similar to the P90 than the classic Halo SMG. It even reloads the same way.
-Gun sounds are horrible, especially the AR. But then agian it’s just a beta.
-Friendly fire should be off.
-DMR needs to have the ammo counter on the gun and just not when you ADS. Also, they should put the ammo count back to 15.
Also, power weapons shouldn’t be told where and when its going to appear, and the control scheme is very bad. I hope they add a custom control scheme. I just want this type of control layout.
RT: Shoot
LT: Grenade
RB: Thrusters
LB: Sprint
RS: Smart Scope/Zoom
LS: Crouch/Ground Pound
A: Jump
B: Melee/Charge
X: Reload
Y: Switch Weapons
Right/Left D-Pad: Switch Grenades
Down D-Pad: Lower Weapon
Up D-Pad: Flash Light. (Could be very helpful for infection on very dark maps.)
DMR has a bit of a different scope, but it’s still the same zoom. As for BR, it’s basically the old zoom with the gun in the middle of the screen. As for the controls, for all I know about SS it will be on RS every control scheme except for the default scheme.
I’m going to assume your taking this off the readyuplive footage.
-the target only pops up because greenskull keeps hitting crouch when he jumps.
-charge is only a one hit kill from behind. its just a regular melee but with more nock-back. the tradeoff being you have to hit full speed to use it.
-SMG is only that strong because in the gamemode Breakout (the one where you start with the SMG) everyone in on half shields.

> -Sprint. I do not think just adding no shield recharge wouldn’t help much because people can still run away. To make matters worse, they have unlimited sprint. They should re add the feature from H4 were if you get shot you slow down.
> -Thrusters. It seems a little too spamy. Instead of 4 sec recharge rate, it should be 6-8 sec.
> -Ground Pound/Charge. I don’t really like the idea of killable abilities. As long as it’s quite hard to use then I’m ok with it. The red reticle of the ground pound needs to stop popping in whenever you jump. I just hope charge isn’t a shield breaker or a one hit kill thing.
> -Clamber. I don’t like the idea of clamber, since it takes away jump trick like jump crouching. I also think you can’t jump crouch because of ground pound. If you don’t know what I mean, to do ground pound, you need to be in the air then press the crouch button.
> -Smart Scope/ADS. Smart Scope in a way is and isn’t ADS. On the AR it’s SS. BR, DMR, etc is ADS and SS. You clearly ADSing with those guns. But getting to the point, I just want it to be the good old zoom. Other weapons, such as the AR can keep SS.
> -SMG. That gun is too strong. You can kill 2 people with one mag.
> -Announcer, Medals, Talking Spartans. Announcer needs to go back to its less autotuned voice and needs to stop calling out almost all of the medals. There are too many medals in H5. I’m fine with talking spartans, but please have the option to turn it off.

Well damn
Am I the only that hates the armor in Halo 4 and 5? I can’t be the only one that prefers reach armor.
I also hate how power weapons show up to everyone. 343 everyone you take a step forward, you take another step back.

Why is it a bad thing that power weapons show to everyone?

I think this is a good thing. It keeps the action going with everyone fighting over the power weapons more often.

I haven’t seen much H5 footage yet but when I first bought H4 my very first thought was “-Yoink- THOSE ARMORS ARE FUGLY!”
I get that 343 is appealing to the younger crowd with those godawful designs cause kids have not developed good taste yet but damn, every time I’m trying to customize my armor I keep browsing the different parts back and forth looking for a less suck-y combination but it’s near impossible, they’re all terrible-looking.

It wasn’t Breakout. It was Slayer on the Skyline looking map with the Sniper Rifle.

Glad someone agrees with me

Well because they already anounce when the weapons r spawning, do we also need to be shown? 343 is basically holding every ones hands.

It removes skill that originally was in the Halo games. It makes the skill gap way smaller. The goal of the game isn’t to fight over power weapons, its to kill the other team, and only the smart players will go for the power weapons.

I agree with Grimlock, I can’t stand what 343 is doing to make the game easier. Probably on of the few complaints I have.

Thank you for agreeing, glad to see that I’m not alone here.
Oh no! A game I have yet to play has some things I do not agree with! RAAAAAAAGE

Well they screwed up Halo 4 and MCC was unfinished so they owe it to us. Most games I play, the makers care about “those small things” that people have problems with because they want to make the perfect game

Subjective. I throughly enjoyed Halo 4. And personally think it told some of the best story out of all the Halo games. I also loved the Multiplayer.
Also MCC networking issues =/= to an unfinished game but I wont get into that.
And small things? Your complaining, sorry, taking issue, with a lot of the new features they are adding in. Which I can take to mean that you just don’t agree with change.
I’ll use this one. Clamber. It takes out jump trick? For all you know it will just suffice to server as a new jump crouch. Now all you need to do is use one button instead of two.
