Ok im not going to say if I like halo 5 or not.But I will tell you what things I noticed while playing. I will give my thoughts on some small things too.
My 1st 2 games where horrible to the point where I agree with a few people online and called the game garbage. The next day I took a different approach and man things where different I was the top player in my games.
THIS IS WHAT I NOTICED
- Sprinting has been nerfed if you sprint you die simple as that. You need to use strategy if you’re going to sprint .I only sprinted to get to the fight quicker.- clamber didn’t have a problem with it at all really you just climb on ledges.- Ground pound I never used it nor did i see it getting used so I can’t comment- hovering was good to pick off people and then drop down out of harms way- ads/smart scope let me say that I mostly hip fired and I used ads to get that last shot as they tried to sprint away.- Charge really isnt a problem for me I used it in close combat- the BR felt good just like any BR before but with a different scope fireing from the hip and then using ads was good for me.- DMR I didn’t like the ADS on it so i just fired from the hip this was my least favorite weapon.- AR is a beast kills faster in this game then any halo game before- magnum is good for cleaning up a kill when you use ads- sniper I did not like it at all .Out of any halo game I have played this one is the hardest to shoot and is so clunky the worst by far.- Frag Gernades bounced different and was harder for me to get a kill- plasma Gernades are broke in this game and basically worthless I couldnt get a kill- Prophets bane reminds me of the halo 2 sword with a twist of faster movement you are a juggernaut is you have it- truth/ midship now I know after watching sprint on the halo channel who is responsible for the new insect like covenant design **sparth im dissatisfied with you work!**my personal feelings aside it plays alot like midship but the color palette of the map is hard at times .The spartans blended into the map and is hard to see your target at times.- empire is a decent map small and once you learn where the power weapons spawn you can camp the spawns a pic off people trying to get the sniper- Spartan chatter just like in call of duty they notify you of your surroundings. I thought I would hate this but it grew on me haveing my teammate’s spartan tell me I took that guy’s head off or thanks for the assist is cool.- Jeff Steitzer’s announcing isn’t as bad as the MCC but i don’t need to know to kill to score points. BUT 343 LIKES THIS SO ITS NOT I REAPEAT NOT GOING TO CHANGE!343 went three different ways when making halo 5 forward, reverse and the same
- (Forward) they add ads,clamber,hovering and ground pound- (Reverse) they went back to halo’s roots well sort of .They didn’t take sprint out but they nerfed it. If you sprint around all the time like you did in halo 4 it gets you killed in halo 5 . It’s more competitive than halo 4- (The same) they stuck with halo 4 designs the armor and art is the same it looks like halo 4 .Thats my experience with the early access they went 3 directions when making halo 5.
