I have played the Halo franchise literally since the day it was released, November 15th 2001, Ever since then I have played it with my family and friends its brought so much joy to me. It was the first multi-player game for the Xbox I had ever played and I’ve played it from then to now with no issues maybe Halo 4 was abit on the bad side but a good game non the less. However… WHAT THE -Yoink- IS THE REASON FOR REMOVING SPLIT SCREEN!!! “We see the robustness of what Xbox Live is today and where people are playing across Xbox Live–you at your house, me at our house. We know that’s the vast majority of the co-op play. With Halo 5, the team really wanted to focus on making that experience great, both visually on the screen that you’re looking at, and all the systems in place.” -Yoink- RIGHT OFF M9… ME AND MY FRIENDS HAVE ALWAYS MANAGED TO GET TO EACHOTHERS HOMES TO PLAY SOME -Yoinking!- GAMES, YOU DEVS MIGHT NOT GET OUT MUCH BUT COME ON WHATS BETTER THAN GOING OVER TO A MATES HOUSE TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES??? THE REAL REASON IS YOU WANT EVERY SINGLE HALO USER TO BUY THEIR OWN -Yoinking!- XBOX ONE ALONG WITH THEIR OWN -Yoinking!- HALO 5 YOU MONEY GRABBING -Yoink- BAGS. >:(
To anyone who bought halo before reading “singleplayer” on the box…
I feel your pain. I myself was lucky to come across the news here at waypoints beforehand, but why would anyone expect a game (that has been split screen since 2001) to go backwards in technology. So it can have a little more fancy graphics? Well those suck also…just look at the pathetic BtB/forge maps.
Although I understand 343i’s reason for removal, how come I can play split screen with Star Wars Battlefront, which has more players in a match and honestly much more going on graphically…
It angers me so :’( And yeah ive heard there will only be 3 missions with Master Chief… COME ON ONLY 3 IVE WAITED THIS LONG TO HAVE 3 MISSIONS WITH HIM xD im not even gonna buy it now… playing the game with friends was the best part about it for me without split screen it just seems like such a lonely game play with a friend over having to sit and watch you play it takes the piss THIS GAME NEEDS SPLIT SCREEN and exactly if Starwars Battle front can do it why cant Halo…
Sorry that it disappoints you I know I was disappointed first hearing about no split screen in June. As a machinima creator it is a huge blow to my production methods and it’ll be much garde to make them now without split screen
343 made Halo 5 to introduce req packs and Fireteam Osiris. It’s been repeated over and over again. They don’t care about your opinions; only your money.

It’s only in one mode for battlefront, only the PvE mode I believe, not PvP, and even then it gets reduced to 30fps for splitscreen
The campaigns only like 4 hours long as well… WITH 1 AND A HALF HOURS OF CUT SCENES ! YEAH I GET IT IT LOOKS COOL BUT COME OFF IT I WANNA PLAY SOME -Yoinking!- HALO 2PLAYER PREFERABLY BUT THEY ALREADY RIPPED THAT AWAY xD I just think its a massive shame along with the introduction of this -Yoink- micro payments system which to unlock everything would cost around £900 WHO THE -Yoink- PAYS FOR THIS -Yoink-?

campaign takes time unless you are playing on easy, like every other shooter, and you can earn every single piece of equipment without paying a single dime.
