I’m not sure if I worded the title correctly but that’s besides the point.
In Halo 4 there’s lots of armor that requires you to complete some sort of commendation in order to use it. And I find that doing commendations are boring, tedious and repetitive. Some of them are absolutely ridiculous. Like really I need 500 kills with a plasma pistol to get Covenant loadout mastery? Is 343i out of their friggin mind?
For Halo 5 armor should be unlocked like how it used to be. By ranking up and doing fun but challenging achivements(vid masters)or by finding hidden skulls in campaign.
If you find any grammer mistakes don’t mind them, Im typing through an Iphone.
I think it’s fine, as long as the commendations aren’t impossible or tedious like they were in Halo 4.
Commendation unlocks are fine
> Commendation unlocks are fine
I wouldn’t mind having commendation unlocks in Halo 5 but they could at least make them less tedious and absurd.
Why not both?
I’m fine with Commendation armor.
I actually welcome it.
I would like a ‘all of the above’ vote on the poll. Anyways, I agree some of the armor that’s unlocked with commendations is just insane. I don’t think I could stand trying to get all those plasma pistol kills, it’s just not worth it for me. I’m still going for the UNSC Weapons Mastery however, I want that Breach Stance.
I’m all for adding more armor/skins/stances, either it be from commendations, skulls, achievements and such. But come on, some of them need to be realistic.
It should be Commendations, Achievements, Skulls, and Ranks. Basically all the above.
I loved it when in Halo 3, you actually had do challenges to earn the Armor by getting an Achievement, or by ranking up.
Then in Reach, it was so stupid that you just had to rank up to earn all the Armor. None of them required any challenge, which was so stupid, boring, and easy.
In Halo 4, 343i took both concepts, and made it near perfect. Some require rank up while some require Commendations. Some were easy to get just by playing, while others need to be earned through challenges.
In Halo 5, 343i needs to take their Halo 4 concept of unlocking Armor, and bump it up a notch. Bring back where some Armor require ranking up, while others require completing Commendations. And then make some Armor that require finding all the Skulls to unlock, while some require unlocking an Achievement. Then it’d be perfect.
