After this update, how would you rate the game as a whole?
For me, I personally thought Halo 5 on release was still a good game. Definitely not great, but better than Halo 4 for sure.
With what we have now though, I would say Halo 5 is definitely a great game. 7 or 8 out of 10 for sure.
The only problems I have with the game now is the Campaign (story, level design, ai, everything pretty much) fact that team-based vehicles are rather discouraging to use which causes less player interaction, and that standard arena maps are too repetitive, small, and enclosed.
Overall though, I am actually really glad to own the game now lol
I would rate the game a 6 still. Even with everything we have were still missing soooo much that we should have had at launch. Plus with halo comes the expectation for more since every halo had more stuff than the previous one until 4 came out .
So…2 added in online play.
3 added in Forge.
ODST I guess added firefight.
Reach didn’t really add anything.
4 didn’t take any of that away unless you count Spartan Ops as being super not firefight.
5 came with Warzone. Which I guess doesn’t count as adding anything at all.
Still missing way too many gametypes and the playlist structure is still a mess. It’s getting there but it’s not 'OMG sooo much better!!11!1"
A 6 at launch. Right now would probably be an 8.

Reach added elite specific game modes as well as new party modes, most of the things we have in halo 4 forge, and the thing that cause the halo communities great scism.
4 took away elites, unsc air vehicle, firefight, the entire halo multiplayer formula, most classic sounds.
5 took away almost every game type we came to know and love. Until we complained for them to come back.
Its been a 8 since launch for me. The only way it’ll get a higher rating is if they release a truly amazing piece of story DLC.
Launch - 6/10
Current Version - 8.5/10
It’s better now, I’ll give it that, however it still has the worst and first bad campaign which really hurts it. Multiplayer was already the best since h3 when it launched and now it’s only improved. Still lacks variety in playlists tho which holds it back. Get those playlists in and I may even say this is the best multiplayer experience I’ve ever had in halo. The addition of firefight is a huge win because it’s the first firefight I actually like besides gears version. I’d give it an 7 if I had to score. The campaign, bad UI, downgrade in file share, mixed feelings on ranks and lack of gametypes/playlists still hurts it to much to give it an 8 or higher. H6 has great potential if they use h5s setup but improve upon it while making the next campaign more relevant. Scrap the abilities, ensure gametypes/playlists, improve the downgraded features, continue the dedicated servers, ect ect and I’ll be in heaven with h6.
Thing is that my main gripes with the game was the god awful campaign and unfortunately I can’t see them retconning that.
1/10 for delaying the game
It’s a lot better for me I only had 3 playlist I liked playing BTB WZ WZA so FF is a 33% improvement to my playability of the game and not get board as quickly.
Only announance i feel like warzone assault always come last in getting updated and it was my favorate option early on when the game came out I play 90% WZA, 5% WZ, and 5% BTB. Now I don’t play WZA cause it not like it gets updated as often as the rest.
5/10 release day
7/10 currently FF update ftw
9/10 more and better playlist options
11/10 if we got some armour ability back that could be stored with grenades and have a ranked btb as it is and a social btb with load outs. More armour abilities could be treated like power weapons that have a limited amount of charge and can be picked up on death.
I wouldn’t rate it below a 5 but I wouldn’t rate it above a 7 either, even if the game was complete at launch.
So many things wrong with the game despite just lack of content.
8/10 Considering I’m playing for the campaign, and it still a big disappointment. The multiplayer is near perfect and It is my favorite Halo game so far.
