Worst Halo game to date?

I love halo 5 and can’t say it is the best halo yet, however all halos are good in there own way it just depends on which one I feel like playing.

I love Halo 5, I do, but I feel the amount of spawn campers and farming has gone overboard. You’re gonna go ahead and say I suck at the game and then rant and insult me because anyone with a average to bad K/D’s opinion is voided, but I do have fun and I do good at the game. My K/D in the game tanks because people in SWAT farm for kills a lot, especially in Coliseum where the spawning is bad and players can sit on the edges of the blue team side and headshot people as they spawn. Unfortunately that has taken a toll on my K/D But I have recovered a great deal and am almost positive again.
I feel if the spawning and farming side of things was minimized it would make the gameplay more fun. I’ve saw so much corruption in the forums due to people who are grinding and farming kills for Achilles in unfair ways rather problematic. It takes me back to the Halo: Reach days in Grifball when people with a really high internet connection would lag out players over that host advantage and would farm for kills. You either played the matches and hoped that you could recover from a -50 K/D and hoped to not run into that group of players in the lobby again down the road, or left the matches and never played again. I have stayed away from SWAT in Halo 5 for that reason as it throws people into bad maps with people who don’t play for the true competitive nature.
Warzone I enjoy as long as there’s not endless Scorpions and Snipers in every corner of the team base spawns trying to get Achilles. As much as I enjoy the armor and would like to get it, I feel it has caused a lot of negativity in the game as well as here on the forums. And to the players who actually play to get the Achilles and do it in a reasonably nice manner for opposing teams and Spartan companies, good for you, you don’t contribute to the negativity.

  1. Halo 3 2)Halo reach 3) Halo wars 4) Halo 2 5) CE 6) Halo 5 7) Halo 4 8) Halo ODST. I treat spartan assault and strike like the star wars prequels, they don’t exist to me.

I like this game a lot. Just wait for the other DLC`s. The one thing I really am not a fan of is the REQ system and I wish there were more levels for War Zone.

Depends who you are, for me yes it’s too competitive.

It’s hard for me being a massive halo 3 fan I loved everything about the game, team br’s MLG! The maps were fantastic, and the ranking system of 1 to 50 is a big part I miss about the old halo games :frowning:

It’s called Wallhack Vision, Pocket Shotgun, and absurd bullet magnetism.

You know what makes a game like Halo 5 (Near perfect gameplay and mediocre story by Halo standards) feel bad? The community. The community has turned into a bunch of children that cannot see others be happy with what they get. The game is facing bad player numbers because people went into it expecting it to be bad or can’t face the fact that a game can be different or good. Halo 5 isn’t a near perfect copy of Halo 2 or 3 so let’s just not play it and ignore how fun the gameplay really is. Personally I think Halo 5 only has 2 major disappointing flaws: The story and the delayed content. I can’t change the story and I can’t force 343 to push the content faster (seeing as they are still testing a lot of it) and I will not pretend to know why the content was delayed, I’ll just be happy its coming and play the game with my friends because its fun to play with friends. If you don’t like it or play it, if you gave up on Halo long ago like many of you claim to be, WHY STILL BOTHER COMPLAINING IN THE FORUMS???

No, I like halo 5 alot, it is very competitive though. All they need to do is add another social playlist or two (infection!!)

This stupid freaking ban hammer is what’s killing HALO 5!!! I’m so sick of this crap! I have quit 2-3 games total but I somehow get banned when I quit a game that others have already quit or are just d!cking around in and aren’t even trying to win! BU!!S5!T. It wouldn’t be as bad if you made it so others joined in if someone quits but you don’t! COD can do it but 343 must not have that programming capability :-/
Also, No one communicates anymore, 343 plays dictator over the game I bought and the arena maps look like crap and all the same! Bring back HALO 3 maps (which was the best HALO) and the smooth movements and controls of HALO 5 and you’ve got an amazing game! Yes, HALO 4 was by far the worst of the franchise. STOP the ban hammer or make it so others are automatically added to open slots in a game in progress!

Agreed. Can’t we talk about our favorite games or aspects throughout all of the games? Why do we have to sit around and -Yoink- about everything in all these threads?

No wtf

> Halo 3 was the worst

Lol be careful what your talking about, kid.

halo 3

Halo 5 was definitely a major departure from the normal feel of Halo. However, I feel that this departure was both necessary and still makes the game very enjoyable. In my opinion, this halo has the best multiplayer by far. As for campaign, there are definitely some shortcomings, but that mostly stems from the over marketing done by 343 and Microsoft, raising our expectations significantly

Halo 5 had the first campaign in the franchise I could say was’t good

Halo 4 is worse. It is the worst

It really isn’t that bad, in fact I thinks its the best Halo I have played. Halo 4 wasn’t really my favorite tbh but then again Reach’s armor lock gave me nightmares ( Yet the campaign was one of my favorites ).

“Too competitive?” What do you want to do in Halo…? You have to compete in every game mode in every Halo.

Halo 5 is an amazing game I think. Are there things that could be worked on, yea. But that is any game. No game is 100% perfect. Halo 5 is really competitive yea, but they had a big push towards esports with this because that is what people are wanting today. I think the game mechanics and play style are amazing in 5 and it brings a whole new style to the halo community that was needed. It is faster and just makes the game more enjoyable I think. That is my opionion though and I don’t expect anyone to share that exact opinion. If you don’t like the game then that is cool. But I wouldn’t say it is a terrible game.
