I’m an old guy. Been playing halo since day 1. Been on line since the first day of halo 2, actually before that with halo ce through tunneling. So my opinions might be different than a lot of the younger folks.
Bring back red versus blue please. The colors and outlines are confusing at best.
Seems tougher to track with the reticle. Is this just me? Not necessarily a bad thing.
Love the idea of practicing at a range and with bots. Hopefully there are more options on release.
The bot ai is much better than I expected. Wonder how they will drive.
Not a huge fan of the hit indicator. I think at the least it should be turned off in competitive games. Great for training though.
Are spartan dash and ground pound gone? I mat have just missed the press on this.
Don’t know about the ui. Might just need time to get use to it.
I was much younger when I first got my hands on Halo 2, and I bet a lot of the halo players are old fans. i agree with your points. I do miss the Red vs Blue Spartan colors. I find myself doing a lot more double takes on who is friend or foe. I’m also curious if everyone will have a red hue in FFA.
the reticule does seem to not want to lock on. I have to be pretty close to get that sweet aim assist. I would hope the hit indicator would be a toggle for game modes. Toggled off for competitive, I would say. I doubt that’s the case, though.
spartan abilities are gone. I miss having them, but many people did not enjoy them.
I enjoyed charge and pound. I didn’t think they were halo style game breaking but I’m fine without them also. I am concerned that grapple will change the game completely. I very much enjoyed some of the just cause games and others with such abilities but it’s not what I think of in halo. I hope there are competitive playlist without them.
