I was looking for spartan ops at end of campaign, just for story continuation at some level.
wow that sucks, all i know is i purchased one (10k req) as we started a match and it never appeared, bought a second and it gave me the achievement for first gold pack. still no first pack content.
anyone else think the textures in MP look…low rez like it did in the beta…not alot of detail compared to the halo 4 mp and halo 5 campaign
My issue is that I bought the collectors edition of Halo 5 and picked it up on the release day, over a week before the game came out. I immediately turned around and did the hard copy exchange. The process was redicilous, 3 people over chat with Microsoft and a few hours later and a bunch of unnecessary confirmations like a photo of the receipt, photo holding the collectors edition box, so on and so on! The worst part is someone can walk in on the release day or even now and play before me, for the fact that I still have not received the game in the mail yet! Anyone else experiencing this issue???
This game is just a modern day updated version of Halo CE. Other than CTF and Strongholds, every match I play its just pistol battles. No one controls the power weapons and even if they do, if you’re pistol savvy they’re done for. I love the BR and AR in this game and they aren’t even considered usable anymore since everyone just hammers you with the pistol. Halo 3 multiplayer was the best in my opinion, because of the same attributes but the pistol wasn’t a sniper in your back pocket. Even the pistol in H4 was better than H3 but not so much better that it was the most frequently used weapon. This is super frustrating to me, when as a competitive player there is no variety, don’t get me wrong the pistol is great and fun to use, but there are very few AR and BR battles in my matches anymore. And there is no Team BR’s either? what is that -Yoink-.
My only problem with Halo 5 is that I was expecting a lot out of the Arbiter since he is back! he does not get a barely any screen time and I was expecting some kind of interaction with him and Chief
“At the ending cut scene of the game, he just looks at him but I can guess he`s surprised to see him again after four years”
Only having 3 missions with Blue Team, I honestly do not care about Osiris, yes they are an interesting group and all but when it came to their missions I lost a lot of interest as I just didn’t care for them, it should have been the other way around, I just really hope Halo 6 will not be like this, I want to play as Chief like the other main games and I am worried 343 are forcing Locke onto us an trying to replace Chief with him.
Other then that I am really enjoying the game.
Where are all the gametypes?! 1 Flag, King of the HIll, Oddball, Assault, Race, Infection, even Ricochet which 343invented!

YES WHERE ARE THEY
The fact the community is constantly complaining about problems with halo 5, that is seriously my only problem with halo 5. The only one. Everything else is great about it and I love it.
I feel like the scaling for REQ packs is painful.
No one is going to buy bronze or silver packs, and to get to a gold pack takes so many matches… I feel like it’s a little unbalanced.
19min into a Warzone battle and got booted. Also during respawn says “retrieving data” which makes unable to access upgrades to equip has happened in other rounds. Playlist seems weak, need more gametypes. Loved the Spartan ops in H4. BUT I must say the game design and gameplay is fantastic. Besides these few things I’m very much enjoying another great game in the Halo series.

Seems like a easy fix, they should lowerd the damage of the pistol to make players use a verity of weapons. Curious to see if they make any changes!

I totally agree with you. Master Chief makes Halo! ODST and Reach where cool to see the prospective of others in the war. By Halo= Spartan 117

This just doesn’t seem to me like a better improvement. H4 wasn’t crazy, and the ordinances weren’t a great idea but we still had weapon variety and not OP for the most part. But here you don’t need a sniper, BR or rocket launcher, as long as you hit your shots with the pistol you’ll rack up kills. I guarantee you that the most use weapon, and most kills with a weapon in this first week of release is the pistol.
Okay, here we go:
1. No Teishin Raikou armor.
343i basically promised this armor set to everyone who played Halo 5 on launch day (up to a certain date; I forget which) and for some reason, I didn’t get mine. I’ve heard a lot of other people are having this problem as well.
2. Free-For-All is a broken mess.
There are so many problems with this playlist. Rumble Pit has always been my favorite playlist of them all, and it is terrible in Halo 5. Motion Tracker range is far too short for FFA. Maps are too small for 8-player matches. Spawns are broken as well; I constantly have people spawning right next to me, and all too often right behind me. The whole thing feels random and awkward as a result.
3. Limited Custom Game options.
343i continues to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. No Infection? No Assault, no Ricochet, no Oddball, no King of the Hill… no traditional Big Team Battle? I seriously cannot believed they omitted so many gametypes from Halo. This needs to be fixed.
4. No Firefight or Spartan Ops.
Warzone is more PvP than it is PvE; the result is we’re left without a game mode to fill that vital niche in Halo. If they can’t bring back Firefight or Spartan Ops, then we need some kind of PvE-only Warzone variant that can be played solo or cooperatively. Also, Warzone is in need of Custom Game options.
5. Armor Customization is lousy.
How did we go from the incredible amount of customization options we had in Halo 4 to the stripped-down armor customization of Halo 5: Guardians? After the beta, I’d hoped this would be fixed in the final game, but it’s not. We need to be able to mix and match different armor parts (helmet, chest, shoulders, arms, legs, visor) just as we could in Halo 4. Also, there are some classic armor types that need to be brought back; EOD, CQB, and Mark V are still missing from the mix.
Its got to be the customisation options that get to me. Only two options to change armour and your secondary colour barely changes on some pieces.

What is up with in-game lobbies too? You cannot whatsoever look at other players ranks, armor, or anything that we’ve had in all past halos. I remember that feature, being able to look at other players and their ranks in pre game lobbies was one of my favorite things. Looking at other players and their own style of customization etc.
