I get that I sound ungrateful but I’ve had my eyes set on the Locus helmet (legendary req) from before Halo 5 launched. Every update brings more reqs that I’m having a hard time keeping up with. I have sooooo many uncommon - rare reqs to unlock that pile up faster than I think I can unlock them without buying reqs. As the chances of me obtaining the helmet decrease I get more and more discouraged from binge playing to unlock the helmet I want. I won’t walk away from Halo 5 because I love the gameplay but I think I’ll end up more discouraged than motivated to binge play this game.
I might be a bit whiny but I think it’s important for 343i to at least eight be aware that sometimes “more is less”.
I still wish the REQ system didn’t exist, I just keep unlocking stuff I don’t want. I’d so much rather grind for something I want, at least I knew in Reach what my goal was and how long it would take to get there.
Your concerns are legit but you’re looking at the wrong fix. Having less isn’t viable in my opinion because even though some of the armors and helmets are god ugly, and I mean ugly, there is someone out there that likes them. Now I think I legit complaint would be how vague it is. I dropped hundreds on the req system. I wanted all the armors and helms because I plan on getting many different types of 3D statues but the only armor I want to wear in game is hell jumpers. The hell jumper armor was like the third to last req pack I opened. This is with war zone req packs I get every week and all.

The Problem isn’t about new REQs, i myself love the new REQs but in my Opinion the should be more different REQ Packs to buy, so you can better Aim for specific things - like a REQ Back where you get Armors, and other REQ Packs like this…But generally i prefer this Systems over classic Unlocking.

well the fact that they add more armor to the 100s we have already that people dont really care about(they probably do idk) point is they could be working on new gametypes instead of armor which imo most of them look pretty bad
Too much REQ is a completely legitimate complaint. It’s basically filler incentive for those interested in what it offers. I’d argue it’s the only thing that keeps non-competitive players hooked. Not gonna lie, probably would’ve stopped by day 1 if they told us all they’re offering is a “Competitive Experience”.

Hey, Traxoline. I completely agree with you. It’s good that there are more options but I feel as if most reqs are just filler. In Halo 3 and Reach, ever piece of armor was distinct and different in their own way. But now I can’t tell what armor is what anymore. It’s like all these new armors are copy/pastes off of each other.
Don’t get me wrong, I like variety just as much as the next guy but these armors have no meaning anymore. In Halo 3, if you saw someone with the katana body piece, you knew what they went for. Or if you saw someone with the haunted helmet in Reach, you knew how much effort they put into getting that. Now it seems like the art team doesn’t even care and they’re just putting as much useless crap in as possible just to make it seem like Halo 5 if filled to the brim with content, when the reality is quite the opposite. Halo used to balance quantity and quality perfectly back in the good ol’ days but now it’s like 343 is getting extremely lazy and/or doesn’t care as much as they claim to.

Haha. I chucked when I seen this. Read from the OP. Seen the typo laughed a bit. Read this lost my -Yoink-. Lol
I would rather have 100 less helmets and a few more maps. Or at the very least separate req packs for weapons and customization items. Yes the helmets are nice, but before I settle into the months at least of unlocking them I would like to get through at least all the load out weapons. I haven’t even gotten a longshot AR or sentinel BR yet (I did finally get one DMR at least).

What comes in the packs. Like for instance I want a very specific type of armor and helmet but I can’t just get req packs for armor and helmets I have to get packs and roll the dice on what I get. I could get an emblem which I care very little about. They need packs geared for what you are trying to obtain.
