The way the boxer control feels is crappy. Other than not a whole lot of problems per se . Game runs great
Okay, I am a HUGE fan of the Halo franchise (I’ve been a devoted player since its inception.) However, I have a few issues I’d like let the Devs know about (and a lot of people agree with what I’m about to say), First, I’d like to address the problem of connectivity with friends, half of the time my friends and I will have to quit and restart the game just so we can join anyone’s fireteam. Secondly, we are all upset by the fact that you never gave the MLGers a gametype so they will leave us regular FPSers who just want to play multiplayer In a fun and inviting atmosphere alone, instead we are being bombarded with nothing but hardcore players who play with unsportsmanlike behavior and an unfair advantage. Lastly, it has to do with the whole nonsplit screen thing but I’m hoping that a lot more people other than me are complaining about that, cause every one of my friends are up in arms about that whole disprovement.
sincerly (still) a true halo fan,
Soggie.

> Without any doubt in my mind, the #1 issue with Halo 5 is how aim assist functions, and how it effects the core fundamental point-and-shoot nature of FPS game play.

> In Halo 5, Aim “assist” functions like a generic sensitivity drop once your reticle gets near a target. The problem this creates is, the effort of getting your reticle ON-TARGET actually requires MORE input from the user. Proper aim assist should help the player manage the under/over aiming space that occurs. Halo 5 does not do this whatsoever. All they do is lower the sensitivity once your reticle gets about 1 body length away from your target. Very poor system. Its like having to drag your reticle though through the mud. “Out shooting” someone in a strafe dance is more like watching your reticle remain completely still, despite your input, and hope for the best. That is not the Halo I grew up with.

> Screw opinions of sprint, abilities, maps, or weapon balance. If the fundamental FPS core is not right, and the basic process of pointing and shooing is not engaging or rewarding, then is not a successful FPS. What sucks is, this was staged to be my favorite Halo sense the BR starts of Halo 2. They built so much fantastic stuff… just on a very weak foundation. I am not sure how long this one will last.

Spot on! The aiming is horrible! Please fix this 343! There’s so much awesome stuff in this game, but it can’t even be enjoyed cause the aiming is so bad!!!
So far the only issue i have come across ( and i’d consider it a big one) is either my progress not loading or getting reset. I have been playing mostly SWAT and have played prolly 20 - 25 matches today. When i got on later I was the same level (from experience) but i needed to play 10 qualifying matches again and my career record had been wiped to all 0s. I have continued to play and while i can level up my guy still I cant visibly see me receiving anything from the games, it doesn’t count matches toward qualifying matches and It fails to load the leader boards and stats after game (it just says it cannot load my data at the moment). So far Warzone seems to be the only thing working for me right now as far as receiving req points and showing the leader board and such. However it still shows that i have 0 matches played and no stats for both warzone and arena game modes. Does anyone else have these issues?
Campaign:
- Feels like continuous grinding.
- No mystery
- Little heartfelt emotion involved and when there was it wasn’t believable
- No epic scale (imo) felt like a closed path in an uninteresting sandbox
- Ending felt like a pure set-up for 6 and it wasn’t even a good cliffhanger
- The marketing for this game made it seem like the plot would be more Locke vs Chief centric and we’d understand why Chief was a traitor but then we find out he’s just following Cortana and it’s like OKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY and then they’re just buds after they sock each other a few times and we play through a few more missions
- Master Chief should have out manuevered Locke more in the fight scene
Multiplayer:
- AR needs nerfing
- Need BR or DMR starts
- No large slayer maps unless you play Warzone and those are FAR too large for what I’m talking about (Big Team has essenitally been booted by an unfun replacement)
- REQ packs do not feel important. No accomplishment feeling when gaining them.
- Radar needs tweeking, it feels like people don’t show up quick enough
- Sprint slam melee BS is essentially Halo 5’s version of an armor lock bad idea and I personally hate it. I think it should be nerfed because it makes the bullets feel like they have 0 stopping power
- Human shotgun needs buff, Scattershot needs nerf or less bullets
- Need way more map selection in Arena Slayer especially since there’s no voting this time around
Those are my major complaints so far
The warden in the campaign is way too OP, all of his moves one hit, he’s twice as fast as chief, more health than a hunter, and you expect us to beat three of them in a close quarters map with no strategy to counter them besides hit their back. Even then nearly impossible to do so when there are the two others shooting at you while running a strategy.

> No vehichle combat Accept in pay to win game mode
Another joker who thinks its pay to win I’ve won a lot of warzone and haven’t paid a cent

There are 2 of the Promethian rocket things at the front where they first emerge and 2 jump pads that launch you back and forth from either side of the map. Grab the launchers and target one with your team and then you get a checkpoitn for every one you kill. Only way to do it on Heroic or higher IMO.
No diversity in Req packs. It seems when you get something in a req pack there is a set system that causes you to get even more of that req.
For example. At the time of posting this I opened a gold rek pack. It contained…
5 Fuel Rod Cannons
4 Ghosts
2 Overshield I
And then just a random vehicle, and a warzone RP boost.
And I am so damn sick of getting Mongooses. They are 100% useless and I get like at least 6 per pack.
Slayer maps a little to crowded. Want to choose load out in arena. My most important is I want an island map, huge with vehicles. Other than that I love the game.
I’ve enjoyed it mostly I got it at 12:00 AM when it launched and started playing and the Multiplayer servers weren’t stressed so you couldn’t find a game which I thought was awesome because most Launches don’t handle well. Cough Halo: MCC Cough Halo: MCC is still barley working but they did AMAZING work with Halo 5 Guardians in my opinion I have been playing non- stop and have not ran into any problems.
- Not being able to see who you queued up with. - Not able to choose emblem colours correctly - No forge and massive lack of gametypes. - Glitchy first person cutscenes - aliasing out the -Yoink!- - Markers for teammates disappear in warzone. - Maps all look the same - The free dlc maps we were promised are actually just forge maps - Generic trope-filled sci-fi story. - Advertising for the story was all basically flat out lies - The warden could be a disney villain - Cliffhanger ending leaving more questions than answers - Artificial mission number inflation (missions 3-6 should be one mission so should 8-11) - Story breaks lore in multiple ways - Stupid paint jobs on all the armours and no way to have a single solid colour - Microtransaction in a full priced $60 game that give you an advantage in warzone(If you get a br with a longshot scope and the forerunner muzzle thingy you can shoot at a longer range and do more damage, but I can’t get that because I haven’t bought enough packs yet, and to earn enough packs to actually have a chance at getting that I would have to play hours of warzone)
The only problem I’ve had so far is when I put my code in to get the Spartan Locke armour and battle rifle skin i didn’t get them. Besides from that the games been amazing

> The radar pretty much only shows enemies that are right next to you. Enemies are close enough to kill you with generally close range weapons like the assault rifle and SMG without ever even being a bip on your radar because they just don’t come close enough. It makes the thing nearly useless.
>
> Also, I have gone full speed in a ghost using boost and rammed an enemy player many times now and all it did was take their shields down. Yet I don’t even use boost and I just strafe to the side and gently tap a team mate, and they immediately die.
>
> Also the aiming is just horrible. It keeps trying to follow enemies I’m not trying to aim at, and the game has trouble aiming towards the corners. It just wants to focus on the Y or X axis at once.
That’s strange considering there is little to no aim assist. I also have yet to have any problems with the ghost, I’ve actually gotten a double splatter while boosting.
The only thing I can agree with you is the radar. It does seem to be a bit small, but most people will get used to it with time.

> - Lack of gametypes, we need Classic, Infection and Grifball playlists!!!
> - Aim Assist for the BR needs to be increased slightly, in any other Halo I would be slaying kids to no end with the BR, in this game it feels like my bullets do nada and I get killed alot
> - Disable spartan abilities, mainly and only really the thrusters, in SWAT!!! Also, increase the chance of getting regular SWAT as a gametype, I played SWATnums 7 games in a row on the same damn map
> - The launch maps are pretty trash. I dont mind the forge ones, but if they are going to be in MM, make them good please
> - It would be cool if the REQ guns, like the Long Shot BR, was added into Arena, maybe in a Classic playlist with no sprint/armor abilities.
> - Bring back vehicular maps!
> - Add a social playlist.
> - I would really like Fiesta to be added into Halo 5!!
- They don’t have many playlists to get a healthy population.
- Bullets do the same amount of damage with aim assist or without. You’re just missing, get better aim.
- I don’t play swat, but I can see how that’d get annoying.
- Merely personal opinion, but I’m sorry you aren’t satisfied with the maps.
- They don’t have the REQ guns so that it’s an even playing field.
- 18+ maps after post launch, there is a chance for “vehicular maps”.
- Refer to 1.
- Game types, that aren’t permanent, will be put into rotation on the weekends. If they’re popular enough, that have a chance to be permanent.

> > Team brs: Halo 5 lacks customization in team arena. They need to allow players to use what gun fits them most. For example , I personally hate assault rifles , but I like the pistol. And your entire team has the same gun which is annoying. And you have to fight to get a br , and if you don’t have one , you lose. Let us choose what we can start with , Br , DMR, carbine , SMG, AR , this will give us more variety instead of fighting with the same stuff for hours on end. And will change up he game play by everyone not charging the BR or DMR on the map. As well as letting us choose our own grenades for variety.

I thought people hated these two about h4

I’m still waiting for my Spartan rank to be fixed -.-
all’s going well for me 
my issues is that i wanna play with people who are not going to kill there own teammates. Tired of playing with kids. wanna play co-op with people who wanna play for fun but at the same time still wanna be up for a challenge.
Req system is constantly going off line and the matches I play are not getting save so i cant get ranked. Why???
One issue I have is the spawning. Already two times I got killed instantly after spawning. One was from a fuel rod gun and two was from a sniper. Seriously, a sniper. That means that I literally spawned in front of a guy taking aim. And when I mean instantaneously I LITERALLY mean instant. Like 0.4 of second right after spawn. They should fix that.
