I briefly came back to halo 5 to check out the content and all the forge creations. I haven’t played since a few months after release…
content and forge are amazing.
But I quickly realized why I left the game.
It’s not halo.
The textures res are too sterile and lack that dirt and grunge, even in dirt!!!
And don’t get me started on the thrusters and sprint.
I just don’t understand. The movement speed makes radars nearly obsolete and strafing is just a little OP with the thrusters.
Ground pound is really out of place too.
Clamber isn’t the worst, but it feels like some ledges aren’t clamber friendly.
Then there’s the unwelcome changes they made to breakout…
I feel like everything I liked about halo is being washed away.
Will halo 6 be like this too?
Im scared. Please hold me and give me warm memories of halos 1-3 and some bitter-sweet tales of Halo Reach

If you want CE-Reach then go play MCC and Reach. I will not “hold you” just because you want old gameplay. This is how Halo is now, and it is not going to change, no matter how much you and a few others want it to. Faster paced gameplay is here to stay. And if you want slower gameplay… well, again, go play the Master Chief Collection. And if you don’t like the new movement mechanics… must I say it again? The old Halo formula is gone and would never work in this day and age of gaming.
Are you injured?Did a family member/close friend died?Or has something terrible happen?
This are reasons why I would hold a stranger,but not because he dont like some game mechanics.
Go to a game store and sell Halo5 if you dont like it and then buy Mcc.
Change is a good thing, imagine the following, if you will. Bungie still makes Halo games, but they’ve been running out of ideas over the years, so they just start reusing content, cliche characters, and boring multiplayer.
Back to reality, 343 doesn’t really do anything BAD, it’s just different. People need to understand that not EVERYTHING 343 touches turns to crud. In fact, 343 is BETTER than Bungie in my opinion.
If Halo stayed the same, Halo would stagnate and die off. This isn’t PC where a single title can be updated over time, consoles are defined by generations, and each generation needs new games to sell that console, hence why we get continuous, evolving releases of games on console.
As for holding you and telling you about Halo 2/3 and Halo: Reach… well for a start I don’t want to touch you. Secondly, Halo’s 2 and 3 had their fair share of problem. Also, all of the things you’re describing as “Not Halo” have their roots in Reach. Reach was the game that originally shook up the Halo forumula.

Just pointing out never is a long time bro… And what proof or evidence do you have that suggest Halo 1-3 style wouldn’t work in today’s world? I’m not saying it would or wouldn’t work, that’s not my point here… to my knowledge the best selling halo game is H3 and ever since Halo changed up it’s “formula” it has gotten worst and worst popularity and even sale wise.
Games like Overwatch use some “old” style mechanics like no sprint animation for example , save minus 1 character, and that game has done VERY well. The new Doom is a other example. Yes MP wise it didn’t do great, but that was because lack of content mainly as people had said, but the game single player and music has been praised by the majority.
A game does well (usually) when people find it fun. Clearly not as many people found Reach, H4 and H5 as fun as pass ones. The popularity and sales of those games compared to the others show this. Not to mention Halo hasn’t been the “it” thing now for a long time.
Now I don’t hate Halo 5 at all (look at my service record, I played yesterday lol) and I’m not here saying older halo is better then newer halo either. You want to like older more then newer or vice a versa go ahead. I just don’t understand how people (not directing that anyone just a general statement) can say “old style Halo wouldn’t work today” when there is literally ZERO proof of this. These kinds of statements need to stop. They make no sense, like at all!
