This is not my personal opinion of how Halo 5 should be, but how games are going to be in the future. Although fans fell in love with the arena play style of Halo CE, Halo 2, and Halo 3 but games can not stay the same. The reason Halo 4 placed so many new concepts such as default sprint and multiple armor abilities was to expand to a larger audience… 343 is trying there hardest to give halo fans what they want but the truth of the matter is Halo can not survive off the fans alone. This is why they are expanding to a larger audience, people get mad saying that Halo is turning into a CoD but there will be similarities to appeal to another audience. 343 will do what they can to keep the Halo Community loyal but know that there will have to be exceptions if you want Halo to stay alive.

isn’t every game turning into a cod? Isn’t every game broken? Isn’t every game studio stupid? Everyone knows better, and how to “fix” the game. We are jn next Gen. Have some patience. I understand we have really bad examples such as destahknee, but take it easy brothas.
those are the top go to complaints. I can’t understand it. Have faith guys. Faith is believing … I have faith in 343i

halo 5 will be in a class of its own. Hearing a cod comparison makes me physically sick. No chance of that. Thus game will have no equal

I don’t believe this to be the case at all. Halo was running great up UNTIL Reach. We’ll see when the Beta goes live, I’m sure a lot of things will be adjusted.
I think we owe the game a fair chance through the beta, but it’s fairly silly to ask people to reserve all judgment beforehand. We’ve seen enough to justify preliminary opinions, and it’d be a small miracle if everybody’s first impressions were positive. This is a beloved series, and after some of Halo 4’s contentions, quite a few individuals are wary of 343’s shepherding. I don’t think it’d be fair to completely disregard the game before trying it, but careful analysis and criticism should be expected when an established franchise begins to deviate from the formula. As for 343 wanting to cater to a wider audience, there’s a right way and a wrong way to go about it. Halo is already successful, and making improvements to a working formula by way of sensible updates will almost certainly result in a good product that will attract many customers, both new and old. Conversely, it can be disastrous when you adopt qualities from other works just to cater to an exterior audience. If you don’t pull it off as well as your competitor, then the new players you bring in are just going to migrate to the next flavor when it drifts along. Meanwhile, long-time fans can easily become disillusioned after having a familiar product diluted with superfluous features. Halo doesn’t need to mimic other popular FPS tropes - it stands strong as an individual element.

Halo did not encounter serious competition until Halo:Reach lowered the standards… That’s what you should have said lmfao
I’m glad you have the same mind set as me. Things need to change if they are to survive in my opinion. But that’s not going to stop the nostalgia glasses that a lot of people wear. They would rather have the same multiplayer for 10 years ago over and over again. Also now we actually get to feel like a SPARTAN which is bad -Yoink-.
if halo stayed the same it would suffer fatigue, halo 4 was a step further then reach in the wrong direction (don’t get me wrong Reach had some really good redeeming features like day one playlists that were good i think i spent more time in invasion more then slayer) that was really one of halo 4’s problem they really banked on dominion being the new invasion and once people said this isn’t that great it just dropped then the many mechanic faults with balancing and ordnance kind of sealed its fate. halo 4 suffered the banjo kazooie nuts and bolts fate to many things that cluttered the gameplay while taking things away that had been welcomed in halo for half a decade. halo 5 i see they are really cutting away the bad changes my only hope is they add new things to the sandbox like more vehicles and weapons instead of taking good stuff away.

I am serious. Have you ever noticed how as halo has lost popularity, other series gained it? No, that’s not because halo got bad, its because all game franchises lose popularity after a while.

Here is a hint: Reach and 4 were the cause of people losing interest in Halo. When you meant competition, I thought you were referring to MLG. By the way, Halo 3 successfully managed to still be top dog for three years against other very popular titles. What does that tell you?

Ok well they failed horribly at expanding to a larger audience. In fact the failed so hard that halo 4 is in the 4 digit popualtion range.
Halos 1.2.3 were huge successes and had huige fanbases. There was absolutely no reason to deviate from that formula.

LOL No it actually is because Halo got bad. It is no coincidence that one year Halo 3 has hundreds of thousands of people playing it. Then add in sprint and AAs and now we have 1,000 people playing it. DERP use your head

He means that now we can actually act like Spartans in multiplayer. That’s deviating from the formula.

No… He means completely butchering the gameplay until it somewhat resembles that of a Call of Duty or Battlefield game… Adding load outs, random weapon drops, ordinances, all of that nonsense.

Are you talking about H4 or H5. Halo 5 isn’t going to have that stuff in it dude.
