Ok I have tryed and tryed but I just can not like this game at all and judging by my friends list (thats rather big) i’m not the only one.
For me this just doesn’t feel like Halo I can’t place my finger on it but something just doesn’t sit right and its ruining the game for me, having spoken to a number of people they have all had pretty much the same to say “It doesn’t feel right but I don’t know why”.
Don’t get me wrong I love Halo the stories are awesome and the gameplay has always been just fantastic, I’m the sort of fan that has bought every single limited edition Halo game/console/accessory there is but for 5 I have actually for the first time in 10 years cancel the pre-order for Legendary edition of the game and will just buy the bog standard Digital game now
Are my friends and me the only ones that feel this?
I’m not really hold much hope the the story this time round not after the Joke that was Nightfall!! Could it be that Halo as actually run its course now?
Or is it every Dev that makes FPS games got the “CoD” effect going on?
Please no bashing I am like my friends hoping its just the Beta thats not sitting right with us and the final game will be fantastic fun, but I do wonder how many people out there feel theres something not quite right?
I’ve found the beta boring since week one ended. Br starts just show how slow paced this game is. There is also little variety in weapons to pick up on the map. 343i have created a decent game but have failed to create weapon pick ups that will speed up the game.
Every weapon in the arena not given as a starting weapon should kill faster. Lightrifle should have a charge shot that one shot kills. Dmr should 3 shot and because the maps are so large more power weapons are needed.
I do like the new direction but it is just slow and boring. I don’t want to play this version of halo if the weapons I spawn with are at my heel nearly the whole time. the maps are huge enough to add more deadly weapons. It’s not like people don’t have the movement to dodge these weapons.

Don’t blame BR starts, there are not the cause, they just make the terrible game mechanics and map design more apparent.
I’m not blaming br, I said br starts just show how slow the game is. Ar makes you run, hence sprint needs to be pressed nearly all the time to make the game pace fast. Instead of having maps filled with useful pick ups to increase kill times you get stuck with starting weapons nearly the whole game. The arena for halo 5 needs to have more then this one gun focus or it will fail to entertain after a few months.
Pick up weapons on the map need to be better then your starting weapons or br starts will just always feel stail.

That’s your opinion, I disagree but I respect it.
My point was that the whole “BR starts drastically slow the game” feel is not related to the BR at spawn in itself, but rather to the fact that it reveals how the maps are badly designed and how the triple combo sprint+thruster+clamber are detrimental to the overall gameplay, even if it is unconscious. You may not like BR starts in general or just in Halo 5, but having a precision weapon at spawn has never slowed down the game like that in previous titles. This feel is IMO related to greater issues than just spawning with a BR.
