The thing I most disliked about the halo 5 MP beta videos was the ADS and weapons. For one, the ADS makes it look like a whole different game, and I’m not sure if that’s a good thing. The ADS makes the weapons seem COD like to me. Obviously I can’t say it IS bad. Who knows, it might end up being my favorite one. But the only weapons I could only recognize as is the AR and the pistol and what seems to be the SMG. Although even the SMG doesn’t seem right. I only saw one other gun and that didn’t look familiar and it made me feel like that was Halo the most, and I don’t even know what that weapon is.
343, I hope you know what you’re doing.
I might also add, the maps don’t seem Halo like, nor do the sounds sound like Halo.

The map was Midship.

I only saw one map that looked like halo, and it was during the ViDoc. Also, the abilities don’t seem to good either, the only one I like is the ground pound.
Did anyone see the Rocket Launcher? I swear if that’s what it actually looks like…
Hoping it’s some other weapon, but I have a bad feeling.

I think it might be, I kinda like the way it looks.

First of all, I’d like to thank you for not joining the irrational hate train that has been fueled by the trolls and zeleots so far. But on this topic, what do you mean that it doesn’t sound like halo? On the topics of Maps, yes i do agree they will be different due to the new spartan abilities, definitely bigger. But from the pro gameplay i saw, Map control and weapon control is still top dog. so i suggest waiting for the beta to come around.

I know that ADS is a huge concern on most halo fans’ minds. it could be good or it could be bad. but lets just make one thing clear. Different doesn’t always mean bad. personally it seems to add a small amount of zoom, and thats it. i don’t know if it would be game breaking but we will see.

I thought the rockets looked cool.
I stopped watching the video halfway through. I couldn’t stand to watch anymore. The abilities seemed rediculous(the clamber, built in thruster pack, Smartscope). Smartscope=ADS, which I don’t think belongs in halo. I’m really kinda of unsure about halo guardians now, but we shall see in beta I guess.

The sounds sound to modern I guess, I can’t really put my finger on it. The way I like to think about the sounds is it being in the future, in the unknown, obviously human weapons can only sound so different from what they sound today, I guess they all sound similar, but in past Halo’s , you could easily tell the difference.
I just hope something good comes out for the antagonist part weapons and all.

The only ability you like is the one that’s shaping up to be the single most overpowered, unbalanced ability in the entire game. Riiiight.

How can you tell its op and unbalanced from the one look we got from it. Im not saying the others are bad. Just unnecessary apart from sprint and thrust.

It’s an OHK attack with an area of effect radius that means you can miss completely and still pick the kill up:
That’s enough info to make a judgement.
That “rocket launcher” looked like garbage. Im not one to complain about little things unless it removes some of halo’s look but that thing if it is to stay cant be our rockets. Id prefer the return of the rail gun over that thing.

That looks like maybe the radius of one spartan, two if you count the center.
I don’t get the ADS mechanic complaint. We’ve had ADS on precision weapons before. And it’s already been stated that you still keep full mobility. That hipfire wasn’t changed to make ADS useful. That de scoping is back. And that ADSing doesn’t effect the gun at all. It doesn’t increase the damage or make the bullets fire different.
All it’s doing is taking the built in binoculars we’ve always had since CE and slapping a dot on them. It’s practically a cosmetic change. Does it need to be in halo? no. But it doesn’t detract from the gameplay either.

It’s like saying you like Shasta and the original zoom is cola but they decide to change it to orange Shasta. Sure it’s soda but it’s two completely different flavors.
I don’t know what to think about this Halo .
I really want to test the beta .

It’s the same flavour with different packaging. No big difference.
