What is your opinion about Halo Wars 2?

In my opinion, I love this game. Its a nice switch up from the first person genre but still a Halo game. I love seeing the characters again from the original Halo Wars and new characters too, I hope to see this game link up with Halo 6.

What is everyone else’s opinion on Halo Wars 2?Would love to hear some.

Probably one of my favorite games of 2017, was definitely the most played.

I think its underrated by a lot of people.

It’s an rts game, a lot of people don’t know how fun rts games can be. This game is very fun and with some more adjusting can become the best game in the world.

I think it’s a fairly good game overall, but definitely has it’s issues. Unfortunately RTS games aren’t very popular on console and a Windows Store release doomed the PC version, at least there’s crossplay now.

The amount of maps and the lack of variety in them is disappointing and the balancing at times has definitely been a big issue. 1 leader a month was too frequent in my opinion.

I agree with GeneralGarric69, while I love the game to death it’s had it’s issues. If they could just magically find a balance to all the leaders and units then the game would be PERFECT(Good luck with that though). A few new maps would be appreciated but getting that perfect balance is already hard enough. But as long as they don’t completely break the game this would rank my top 5 fun games I’ve played of all time.

This IS a great game but it’s support takes far too long to make the game enjoyable. I played against Colony as Atriox and pretended I could not finish him off because I did not want to risk playing Forge. I lost that game in the end after two hours but it was worth it. This is a great RTS I hope to recommend one day, not now as the game does not look good as it should.

Yeah balancing all heros would be really hard lol.

If they release the damn thing on steam the game will blow up and become huge on PC, maybe even permanently cementing a spot on the top played list.

that would be great for everybody, and also hopefully it will be reasonable balanced

Love it only thing that hold this game success is window store exclusive despire the game release at time when people ask for simple fun RTS like this…

Favorite game of 2017.

But the only game I’ve played that was released in 2017.

In reality, it’s a terribly mediocre game. I’ve said before that I’d give it a 6/10, and I stand by that.

I absolutely won’t argue. But it’s only bad because or the balence.

Before AtN dropped, the game was easily an 8.

Then Pavium and Voridus were born.

Its good

Gameplay is pretty good, unfortunately the story was terrible

What was wrong with the story.

Not as good as the first game. Controls are a real limit on the console skill ceiling (controls that worked fine in hw1). Game is way too heavily influenced by leader powers with few to no options for counter play. Turrets are overwhelmingly powerful and units don’t do very much building damage which encourages an all units warrior play style. 6/10

It’s out of touch with reality.
One ship can’t defeat a bunch of guys whom the Covenant couldn’t Stop.
That’s my main issue
And the story never ended, it was supposed to be completed by DLC that was never made.
Also they never explain how the Spirit of Fire or the Banished got to the ark
