Terminals in Halo 5?

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Any word on whether or not there will be terminals in the halo 5 campaign?

Edit: If there are terminals, what content would you like for them to cover? I’d personally like to see them delve into the flood a little.

If there are, I hope they are actually on the disc. I hate being kicked out of Halo 4 and Halo 2 Anniversary to the Halo Channel, its very annoying.

I expect H5 to have them, and I REALLY expect them to be inconveniently linked with the Halo Channel. Oh, and I have no doubt they’ll be horrid Motion Comics. Guh!

Really hope they will have terminals. I love them

Yeah having them linked to the halo channel also means you can’t watch them without an internet connection.

I just hope they are real videos and not those motion comics cuz they are really annoying and don’t look good at all.

A ready up live video showed a blue team Intel data pad as a collectible, not sure if these replace terminals

There’s also a video showing a screen which lists the collectibles for a level; 8 data pads and 1 skull, no mention of a terminal

i don’t mind the motion comics but i liked the way they were in halo 3 little snippet reads of a canon events

I loved the terminals and the stories they tell, but I too hope that they are real cutscenes. Especially if they are on the halo channel. It’s such a disruptive experience to be pulled out of the game, wait for the channel to load, then watch crappy animation. Maybe I would be ok with halo channel if they are full HD CGI or live action cutscene… But if it’s crappy animation it better be watched in game.

Would love the “terminals” to NOT look like terminals, and instead be a “terminal-like device” with a design specific to that level. We all know how out-of-place the CE terminal is on POA. If the terminals were Covenant looking for Covenant levels, UNSC/ONI looking for human levels, Forerunner for Forerunner levels, and so on. It’d look a little different, but not like trying to hide a hunter-orange ship in the middle of San Fransisco and go “bet you can’t find it.”

EDIT: and have materials, since the writing is done for it already, steer us toward H6 plot line.
