I mean, everybody says “Man, i friggin’ miss the Halo 3 days!” “Oh, dude the Halo reach days were golden!” Only time will tell if this will be true for Halo 5: Guardians. But I have a feeling that it will not. My reasons? Keep reading. Some of my favorite memories (of my life) Happened in video games, and Halo 3-Reach was no exception. I remember splitscreening with my two brothers on The Pit, they both jumped in the air to Melee this enemy, he was 1-shot, and out of nowhere, like RKO, I sniped that -Yoink!- down. It’s just not possible for something like this to happen in Halo 5, splitscreen is gone, the old, perfectly slow gameplay is gone (keep in mind, I still love Halo 5) I love Halo 5, but have you seen reviews such as the one by “Angry Joe”? He gave Halo 5 a FIVE OUT OF TEN, Halo is losing it’s place as one of the best/most popular FPS games, and it deserves to keep it’s crown. It’s just very apparent that people are reacting negatively to the game. I love Halo, and I just want Halo 5 to be a game that my kid’s will play, sort of like how kids nowadays say “wow, this game, Tram Crash Racing was awesome!” I want my kids to say “Man, Halo was such a great game!” Not “wow, this was excellent until (insert game here)” I just want this game to do well, the sales were poor, but the gameplay is great.
All in all, I love Halo, and if it dies soon, Halo 5 might have been the last nail in the coffin.
Anyhow, I am done with this thread, I’ve reported the trolls and jerks, so I’m done.

There will be one for me… The good ole Halo 5 days. I didn’t have a Halo Reach or Halo 4 good ole days moment because I put both of them down within 3 months. This Halo 5 won be back. The only thing I miss is Team Doubles… If that was in, the game would be so danm awesome.
I already have clips to remember on H5 and great moments.

Don’t forget about being able to visit Sanghelios and a glassed planet for the first time. Or how about running down a guardian. Or maybe the free monthly updates. Or that halo 5 is debatably the most competitive halo out there. Yes, there’s a lot wrong with halo 5, but there’s also a lot 343 did right. Even in halo 4, I have great memories.

Probably, except people don’t realize it really isn’t about the game itself. It’s everything else in your life plus the game. Years from now when you have to work 60 hours a week and the kids are screaming and you barely have time to play halo 7 at all, you’ll long for the halo 5 days when you played for hours at a time. That’s probably what the halo 3 guys miss really, being able to play with halo their friends for hours at a time.
Absolutely i will have those halo 5 moments i find this game to be so fun the only thing that i dont really like is spartan charge but they can change that but yes i am gonna have those remember those halo 5 days.

And not getting a full game at launch.
I’ll definitely have “Halo 5 days”. I will always remember playing online with some of my friends on Saturday mornings. Sure, splitscreen would have made the game better in many ways, but it is still fun without it. Keep in mind we still have a good amount of time before the next one comes out (unless I missed something).

Dude this is suppose to be a good thread if you want to throw hate towards 343 go make an oversaturated thread that been talked to death in these forums.Do you know how rare it is to find a positive thread compared to thousands of hateful threads.
Too bad sprint screen is gone, but apart from that Halo 5 multiplayer is my favorite, and yes, I have played all Halo games. So many great weapon variants and great balance. Haters gonna hate.

Honestly, there’s a lot more good in Halo 5:Guardians than there is bad. Surely there are missing features, but it doesn’t stop me from having fun. I’m sure 343 will learn from their mistakes and successes and put it to good use in Halo 6.
Yes, and everyone will look back at these days and realize that halo 5 was a good game.
Doesn’t that happen with every game? (ahem reach)
(and except cod ghosts for sure)

That. Yeah I remember now. Lol they never even gave Halo 5 a pregame lobby after all the updates. Remember how you couldn’t finish the REQ system because they kept adding more things in every month? Remember the frequent crashes and poor hit detection, and Spartan Charge consisting of all your deaths in Overgrowth?
Those were the days…
