NO SPLITSCREEN MULTIPLAYER?

After finding out there will be no split-screen multiplayer I am extremely disappointed to say the least. Gone are the days of couch-coop playing goldeneye or h2 with friends online. Xbox itself already lacks a tremendous amount of games that should be two to even four players coop or online coop/multiplayer. I have watched the decline of them since the original xbox, year after year less and less games allowing you to play with friends. Some say this is a cash grab forcing you to buy other consoles, others say they want to LAN instead. Either way we face a serious issue as we become more isolated as a society already this has been one of the last things holding in person friendships together, HALO being a staple for it! With this news, I will personally not be picking up a copy of the new halo, instead spending the money on an n64 or more original xbox games but I would love to see everyone elses opinion. I know the focus is to be more on the competitive aspect which I understand but I feel it’s a feature that cannot be compromised.

Should halo be multiplayer couch coop?

Should xbox one have more of these types of games?

Am I just a sad loser fan?

All of the above?

Let me know in the comments and poll!!!

All splitscreen conversation needs to take place here, please.

It keeps the forum tidy and uncluttered.
Waypointers, please report and move on without bumping :smiley:

OP, don’t take offense at this, it happens all the time, but try to search for your topic before creating your own topic :smiley:
Happy Haloing!

Ya it sucks

It is a disgusting precedent for Halo. Without splitscreen and without LAN capability, Halo 5 will be the first entry in the series where there is no multiplayer outside of Xbox Live. That means you have to pay a subscription to Microsoft for Halo 5 multiplayer. Period. There is no alternative.

There is a split-scrren thread already.
