It’s looking like an AR/Pistol start game like H5, but I’d love to also have SLAYER BR’s mixed in as an option to play some BR starts. It’s such a different feel and immediately resonates with the 2/3 days. Think we’ll see this? Any mention?
Most of all, I hope the heavy aiming is gone. I saw it addressed in a previous blog, but some of the recent videos seemed a hair stiff. I’ll chalk it up to the player, it’s definitely something you feel more than see. Playing 343’s H4 even, aiming a BR feels fantastic. Loved H5 but heavy aiming felt so far off from every other Halo game, it’s got to go.
Kudos on everything else shown. Halo is back. Halo is relevant. I’m hyped.
I hope so. AR starts is fine for King of the Hill and Oddball but slayer needs to be BR or commando rifle starts. Map control for power weapons and equipment is good, but give players a solid utility weapon that we can use off spawn. Also ditto the aiming comment. Beyond the generous magnetism, H4’s aiming felt fantastic compared to Halo 5.
