WHATS GREAT ABOUT HALO 5

seems to be a lot of negativity around Halo 5 so i wanted to post a thread for people to discuss the things they DO like about Halo 5. i want this to be a positive thread so if you have anything negative to say keep it to yourself or post it somewhere else.

Personally i really like Warzone, combining objectives with AI on large maps is great fun and i cant wait to see newer warzone maps come out.

im also a big fan of spartan charge and thrusters, to me this adds new dynamics and agility to MP.
believe it or not i like the req system as well, there are no certainties anymore and that adds to the enjoyment of opening RP.

Almost everything except when somebody steal your boss kill >:v

  • New Abilites; As much as everyone hates them, I’ve come to like the clambering and sprinting, it does make it a bit easier to get to one place to another, speed the game up to be a face paced shooter, and allows for bigger maps to be made without the use of vehicles - Forge; Forge is pretty good, I like the way they have set it out, takes some time getting use to but runs good and they give you a lot to work with. - And probably lastly The free Updates, Whether this is just delayed content or new release content, its nice to have something constantly different and new added every so often.

Nothing has changed since the launch of the game…We still have the same 3 types of gametypes, slayer, CTF, and strongholds. I don’t see where you are coming from when you say constantly different.

I meant this in Long Term. Understandable that nothing has been released yet but the promise of constant updates streaming in adds ‘Something different with add on’s every so often’. So this was kinda going more in future tense, not as of now.

I agree we need more positive threads around here.
Here’s some stuff I really like (that i can think of right now)

  • Graphics look amazing - Arena is awesome - Breakout is a dream come true - Warzone adds variety. It’s fun and different than arena. - Love using the pistol. Looks good and it’s powerful! - All the armor. Although most of the armor is just weird looking it’s nice to have so much variety. Never know what you’re going to get each time you open a req pack. - Free updates. No matter how big or small they add something each month and it’s FREE! Who can complain about that?I could go on and on about all the little stuff I like such as the splinter grenade (how it’s actually useful and not useless like it was in Halo 4) and how cool the Warden Eternal was (even though he was used a tad too much he was a cool guy).

There are many good things, but very little to nothing that is great.

There are too many issues that need to be weeded out for the game to reach its full potential.

i like warden eternal although the first time i countered him a slightly peed my pants.

there are so many cool things about H5 that having all the negative posts as popular threads needs to change, thanks for your input

I’ve given up on soloing banshees with my Whiplash. It feels like everytime the banshee has a sliver of health left and an enemy merely looks at it and it dies. Nothing is more infuriating.

i understood it as long term as appose to now. once they start rolling out the DLC’s it will likely be more constant going forward

They have been rolling out their DLCs, but really they are just updates and another one is coming this week. Again, these updates have not changed anything (except to bring forge to players). We still have only 3 gametypes plus Warzone. How long do you think people will wait for things that should have been in the game at launch?

It’s not negative. It’s debating. Every argument has two sides and trying to tell people to not bring one side or another into a debate is nonconstructive.

I enjoyed progressing the Halo story, albeit not in the way most would have liked. Visiting new locations and not necessarily having a Forerunner focus was nice. It will be interesting to see what kind of design the Created take on in the future.

read the post it isn’t a debate of two sides it clearly says “whats great about halo 5” so unless you like the lack of content then you have no point and your posts are nonconstructive and completely off topic…

Multiplayer is amazing—a true successor to Halo 3.
