I loved every second i spent with the halo 5 beta. It was smooth, fast, action filled and fun. The weapon balance was great except they made the smg a lil too powerful. It was never like that before so tone that down a lil bit 343. But my main gripe is the energy sword. I have a very good top of the line led tv and that sword is entirely way too bright. Please tone down the brightness of it and pull it down a lil bit. It takes up the entire right side of the screen so my peripheral vision is obscured to any enemies coming at me. But most importantly its just too daggone bright.oh and allow for custom controls. I miss the old days when you could assign an action to any button i wanted. If i want to jump using the right trigger and shoot with the Y button, let me. Other than that, I’m patiently waiting for the full release of this game because i know it will take up all of my time and that’s not necessarily a bad thing lol. Just dont have the same screw up with the MP that you had at the beginning of the MCC release.
Im pretty sure they did that on purpose for balancing reasons.
I loved the brightness of the sword. I felt it would be great for balance if it had a bit more lock-on/lunge (not severly like H2).
Also, I don’t think Halo has ever had button mapping. They had different control schemes to choose from, but for balancing reasons, you could never completely customize your controls.
Yeah, I felt like I was staring at the sun when I used it.
