What do you guys think of a Halo without a campaign?
Campaigns don’t have that much replayability, almost none in Halo 5. So why waste time and money on a campaign when you can move it towards a multiplayer experience and flashy graphics (which I don’t care about, but 343 does). Just like what Star Wars Battlefront did. They can put more stuff into the launch of the game and put actual new stuff in DLCs and have less bugs, more content. Why is a campaign so important that it is worth sacrificing all that?
But that leads me to wonder, what will happen to the speed running community in Halo?
Let me just clarify that this could be sold just as the game without the campaign because a lot of people don’t even play the campaign. Sort of like how if you buy Halo 3 ODST, you get the Halo 3 Multiplayer disk.
Man, I didn’t even bother to finish the campaign. You don’t get to see the cool armor you unlocked while you play, You don’t even get cool armor to show off for it. Frak that.
To be honest, I bought this game for the multiplayer.
I have replayed every Halo campaign time and time again, except for Halo 4 and 5. Now that being said I still think that if a Halo game had no campaign I would swallow my own head.
NOOOOO, why do you even say it
I really like the campaigns especially 5. Of course we need the campaign for when we want to battle the covenant and promethians alone!

Why do you like the Halo 5 campaign? I don’t like it because they don’t build deeper into the characters and the story is hard to understand, unlike the Bungie campaigns.

Please don’t give 343 any more really bad ideas. The campaign is a selling point for a lot of us. It’s what brought us here in the first place. Halo 5 story/campaign was quite lackluster, but that means that they need to improve on it. Not remove it. You don’t chop off on arm, because you’ve broken a couple fingers.

This is true.
That being said, H5G is no Reach, nor is it close to HCE - H3. It needs a LOT of improvement, maybe take an extra six months (To a year) if needed to finish the game, add all the gameplay modes, & polish whatever’s left over.

What I mean is that you can sell like a multiplayer only disk, like when you buy Halo 3 ODST you get the Halo 3 multiplayer disk. just for those who don’t want the campaign because I’ve seen a lot of people who haven’t completed the Halo 5 campaign and I personally think that the multiplayer in Halo 5 is pretty good.

Simply because I love to play it. I replay the levels.
That is a truly terrible idea. Maybe because people want to see how the story continues and some people without Xbox Live buy it just for campaign? Perhaps you don’t like to replay the campaign for some reason, but most people do. I actually think Halo 5 is very replayable by the way. I’d also like to remind you that Halo 1 was almost entirely campaign based, having had no online multiplayer. It became a bestseller that pretty much made the first Xbox’s popularity. So what were you saying about a waste of time and money?

Looking at how Halo 5s campaign went, it didn’t go so well. A lot of people dislike the Halo 5 campaign. So maybe we could just have a multiplayer only version for the people that don’t like the campaign. I understand that a lot of people might like the campaign, and those people can then purchase the whole thing. If the campaign is bad, I know I would then purchase the multiplayer only disk without a campaign. I guess they could still put the money in to make a campaign after all. But the whole thing might be bad because MS gives 343 time constraints. Maybe MS should give them more time to work on both the multiplayer and the campaign.

Or you can just not play the campaign. Partitioning a game into sections to be sold will not help the development of either part, because it would still take the same amount of time to develop both. Can’t release one earlier than the other because that would anger the fans eager for the other. Also, you seem to be under the impression that multiplayer is a far bigger part of the game, when in reality they are both equally important halves.
Every Halo had tons of replayability for me. The only two that didn’t were Halos 4 and 5.
