In it for the Campaign

i’ve been playing Halo since CE & the story just interests me. I honestly don’t care if Halo goes back to classic gameplay or not. I just want to kill covenant & see Arby again and see where the campaign leads to. Who else?

YYYYEEEESSSS!!!YYYYEEEESSSS!!!YYYYEEEESSSS!!!YYYYEEEESSSS!!!YYYYEEEESSSS!!!

In it for the campaign as well really interested to see whats going on with the Arbiter himself and the alliance with the UNSC, all i see here is topics about game play which is fine because its important but its all i see topic after topic , there is hardly any discussion/speculation about the campaign, about what characters people want to see , just gameplay discussion. now i know that’s all we can talk about at the moment but a topic about campaign/characters wouldn’t hurt anyone.

Me as well. Come for the campaign, stay for the multiplayer.

Yup. I’m in this one for the story.

Also, excellent choice of profile pic.

The only reason i ever played Halo, for years, was for the story. Believe it or not, i only got into MM during Reach’s last months, and still found it very enjoyable. Indeed, the game had some frustrating gameplay design choices, but again, i was mostly a campaign person, so they really weren’t that detrimental to my experience.

Story is always first priority for me. Campaing first then i jump into multiplayer

Halo games are a full package of greatness. Both single and mutiplayer.

I am ALWAYS in it for the campaign.

I’ve always bought Halo for the story and with 343 introducing even more new characters (one which includes a new Spartan) makes me even more excited to see where the story goes. The Multiplayer is just icing on the cake.

I’ll be the voice of dissent here. I love the campaigns, don’t get me wrong. But I can only play a level 2 or 3 times before I grow tired of it. The levels are just too linear; I need significant time between play-throughs to keep them interesting. Skulls,etc never really appealed to me, but maybe that will change with the MCC’s new UI.

In all honesty, aside from a handful of favorite levels, I enjoy the cutscenes far, far more than playing the campaign.

Matchmaking has been the reason why I keep coming back since the days of CE on the college LAN. The interactions, the challenges, the highs, the lows, the strategies… they’re infinitely more engaging to me.

Regardless, I have high hopes for the Guardians campaign!

Agreed, the campaign is the real deal for me in any game. Multiplayer is just a fun bonus.

Campaign person here as well!! Believe it or not, Halo 4 was my FIRST Halo to play multiplayer on. I never had an Xbox Live and was having too much fun with the campaign alone. The story is good, the characters are well developed, the soundtracks are amazing, the graphics look stunning… But overall the universe itself is just very intriguing.

The campaign on Legendary takes a ton of skill compared to other shooters out there (FPS or TPS).

-Not everyone dies in 1 headshot… Some take up to 8 to 10. Even that’s a pain because enemies hide under cover.
-Not everyone dies in 1 explosion… From grenade, rocket launcher/fuel rod, or even a tank/wraith.
-Not everyone has a fixed health that doesn’t recharge.
-Not everyone has the head as their weakness. Hunters and Floods
-Certain weapons are good against certain enemies.
-If you repeat the process “shoot, cover, shoot, cover,” then you will run out of ammo. And will end up killing 0 strong enemies (unless you have a rocket launcher at close range… But that doesn’t happen a lot)… because their health will recharge. The enemies will dodge out of fire. You have to do more than “shoot, cover, shoot, cover.”

What I love about Halo is it’s not your typical generic shooter game. And I hope Halo 5 takes a step forward in terms of difficulty compared to Halo 2.

I do want Halo 5 campaign to be the longest… Even longer than Halo 2. I also hope 343i doesn’t spend too much time on multiplayer that they had to downgrade the campaign in any form or fashion.

I am in it for the campaign AND the multiplayer. I think both are going to be an absolute blast. I am excited for the story to continue. I am excited for the new mechanics. I am just excited in general for anything new in the universe of Halo.

I too hope that the campaign is the longest one to date (I’m talking 10-12 hours long ideally) as long as the story moves forward in bold ways and the monotony of Halo 2’s campaign isn’t mimicked :slight_smile:

Just watch it on Youtube if you are in it just for the story.

Or, we could play the game, just as we’re supposed to. Hence why there is GAMEPAY, in the campaign.
