I Think We All Know What's Important Here...

Campaign, Nuff Said…

but on the subject of Multiplayer it is great! while maybe it doesn’t feel like Halo2/3 I think I may like it better… (Don’t kill me in my sleep because I said 343 made a better game than Halo 2, just my opinion)

Yeah campaign is, but also to justify having the new mechanics in MP they will undoubtedly be in campaign as well. So straight off campaign is kind of ruined.

oh god I never even thought about ground pounding as the Chief or Locke…

I hate Ground Pound, Slide & Shoulder Charge. Everyone does. I hope they’ll remove this crap from the final game.

What’s more worrying is that people seem to like the idea of doing it.

Whats wrong with having spartan abilities in campaign. Smart scope will make it easy to use other weapons against the covernant and prometheans. It will be so much fun using shoulder charge against grunts and jackals, usingground pound on a covernant squad will be interesting. Slide is pretty much useless.

Its possible that mc and locke might use armour abilities also

No, not everyone does. I like them. This forum is not representative, either. Don’t generalise.

OT: What’s wrong with SA’s in campaign? For all we know, Chief may not have some of them, unless he stole a suit or something. He’ll probably have slide, sprint, clamber, charge, and possibly thrust, but GP is debatable. Locke will have them, and possibly more, as Mike Coulter did say that Locke will have some “unique abilities”. I just know I want to troll Zealots with thruster, and exterminate Unngoy hordes with GP. It’s gonna be epic.

Honestly, I like the way the new abilities will change everything up. Someone brought up infection a while ago. Now, survivors will have to take the high ground, or risk getting infected by a GP. Infected players will have to be stealthier so that their lunges aren’t dodged by thrusting. Action sack will get even crazier. FFA will be madness. (The good kind.)

Yeah, I’m more of a single-player owl, so the campaign is make or break for me. As long as it’s more memorable for me than Halo 4 I’ll be good. Halo 4 was alright (I liked the emotion in it) but lacked a certain spark to it. Also none of the levels were particularly memorable to me whereas the others I have a few favorites.

As for the Spartan abilities in singleplayer, it really depends if the level design supports it. It seems that with the newfound mobility, the enemies will have to be made to be more tenacious.

Ok, I was not right.
I saw what was voted here:

Just look at the question:
Which of the following Spartan Abilities do you think should be included in Competitive/MLG Halo gametypes?

Well, it just shows how split the community is…

343i did make a better game than any Halo. At least in terms of core movement and shooting and feel they did. With tweaks to Smart Link, grenades, and some other stuff, it could very much be the best Halo. -Yoink- the Bungie fanboys.

I think this poll is really quite accurate of what people think ?

Of all my deaths in the beta, these 3 were the least scenarios I died of. I myself never used slide and shoulder charge, only ground pound every now and then. These SA’s really don’t bother me at all, they’re neat to have but not op by any means

Also what if MC has the new spartan abilities? At the end of Halo 4 he took his armor off, maybe it gets replaced with a newer gen set. We have not seen what MC looks like in any of the Halo 5 trailers only Locke. Would you be happy with this change?

^That. They’re there and sorta fun to use, but I didnt’ see them being used all the time. Honestly I never saw slide used.

What I would like to know is…

Where could I put in my own votes for the cause?
