-
Blue Team are back - the legends that are Fred, Linda and Kelly are actually appearing in game and even better…
-
Blue Team are playable - OK the host has to be Chief but the others get to choose

-
New playable team too - helps that Buck is back (Nathan Fillion!!) but playing from different perspectives worked in ODST and Halo 2 to an extent but I love seeing things from different perspectives; plus Locke, Vale and Tanaka look bad -Yoink-
-
Squads at all times - nothing new for games but it’s new for Halo and my fears about squad commands and AI not working well have been alleviated and looks like it can work well in Halo
-
The story - the reason I play Halo, I thought Halo 4’s story was outstanding and with Chief going AWOL, colonies being destroyed, the domain being open, who/what is up with that Warden Eternal, is Chief causing it all?
-
Spartan abilities - new ways to deal damage, can’t wait to try them out in campaigns
-
Warzone - not a huge MP fan but Warzone genuinely looks alot of fun, very mental and could be a game type I can get into even with my mic on
-
Breakout - fast, 1 life…looks good
I’m sure I’ve missed some out but these are among the reasons why I can’t wait for October 27th
