Split Screen has always been a big part of halo. I never really was that good at Halo so any time I played online I would get recked so hard. However split screen allowed me to play with friends and family more on my skill level allowing me to learn the maps and game mechanics. That way latter I could go and play online and suck just that much less. It also allowed me to play game modes online with friends and family to coordinate attacks and over all have more fun playing online. Halo has been a big part in bringing my family together in one room to play a single game together. When I heard Halo 5 would not support split screen it didn’t make since to me why 343 would cut such a big part of halo out of the game. After doing some research I found that the real reason split screen was not supported was because the Xbox One just is not powerful enough to handle split screen and make it look as good as it does. I honestly would be OK with playing split screen at the cost of tuning the graphics down even if we could not play online and limit it to offline and local custom games. 343 really should try and do a little more to bring back split screen. #Bring Split-Screen Back
It was a big risk doing this, but it’s been turned in their favor. It’s not that the Xbox can’t handle it, it is that they tried to decrease the load times, increase the game time and make the game play more fun for a current market that favors quality gaming vs split screen anything.
Their choice wasn’t wrong, but it certainly kicked some people to the curb. I’m actually happy with their choice, I’d rather play with people online and play Nintendo Games with people I live with.
I miss it as well. Thankfully my girlfriend doesn’t mind watching and we take turns…but its not the same.
I missed split screen as well. When you and your wife play this game, it basicly denied you of those moment. It means you have to buy another HD tv, xbox one, and another game, all so they can decrease loading time? or graphic?
I was looking forward to spli-screen the most, me and my bro have played every halo on co-op legendary };
I would take split screen over graphics any day
