I personally think ordnance should be completely removed from halo 5 they are like kill streaks from cod and should not be in halo because of its randomness and plus we already got power weapons on the map we don’t need more.
Could balance them by making them require more points and only drop ammo, grenades, or semi power weapons as many people have said in other threads. This would keep the feature that works well in custom games (can be altered to get better ordnance in custom game options)
No don’t remove it but make it ammo or something
Completely remove Ordinance. Im tried of Saws and overshields being piled to players.
Agreed. They totally take away the purpose of map control and Halo no longer becomes an arena shooter. If they do keep them (please don’t) they should be much harder to obtain. They come so easily that everyone can get a power weapon and at that point why not just start everyone off with power weapons?

Same 343 remove it completely or make it drop like plasma grenades or ammo or needlers or like how team throwdown does armor abilitys.
No.
Take the current version in multiplayer and use it for SpOps/Firefight.
Turn multiplayer version into ammo, grenade supply, and a new loadout weapon.
Ordinance is good to me, but for those who have issues maybe 343 should only allow one “power item” at a time so no one can have a Saw simultaneously with overshields, but weaker combos like speed boost and needlers would still be allowable.
Remove it! It can be used for custom games, but in matchmaking it is terrible as it is now. If it just refilled ammo, grenades, and AA’s(provided you don’t spawn with AA’s) it wouldn’t be so bad.
While I don’t want Ordnance to go straight to the Chopping Block, it does Require’s Adjustment, and it is not Lighter Than Some.
(lol Huragok names)
It should only award players ammo resupplies, armor abilities, grenades, and maybe a loadout weapon. But NEVER should it hand Rocket Launchers to people like candy.

They are ok, they just need refinement and not be handed to you every two minutes, make it ammo or make it tiered
I think they should remove it, and as I posted in another thread, having weapons upgradable like in Defiance or KOTOR would be good, where you can add and remove mods, but at a cost to XP, money, time and having to lose the mod or weapon.
It could work well.

To all who said this yes
If you removed ordnance, I can guarantee 90% of the playerbase wouldn’t care.
When you have ordnance used against you, it’s irritating.
When you use it, it’s not that fulfilling.
It doesn’t seem to be an issue people really care about, unlike sprint.
> Make it give players ammo.
Then it’s just pointless button and HUD clutter. You already get plenty of ammo from on-map weapons and from dropped player weapons.
I’m tired of pointless clutter. If something has significance, add it to the game. If something is just a gimmick for the sake of “why not?”, leave it out.
We should not ask “why not?”, we should ask “why?”. Doing so prioritizes quality over quantity, and leads to a better product.
