I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU FALSE HALO FANS

Before reading, know this is a quite large wall of text Smh...Hate no matter what I swear! For long time fans of this game, I'm truly surprised by the stubbornness you all show. The close minded, "Everything is Call of Duty", stagnant mindset is ridiculous. Could y'all make a better game? Think about this before you go spazzing. What makes halo the awesome game that it is comes from the beautiful story behind it. The multiplayer was one of the first to truly test skill. Nobody entered the game more equipped or ahead of someone else. It all came down to knowledge of the map, teamwork, and the gunfights came down to who had the better marksmanship. The maps forced competition and were unique. SPRINTING. Because call of duty was so lucky to be blessed with the privilege of owning sprinting. If anything, ANY and ALL first person shooters should have a prerequisite of sprinting. How are you a future soldier, but can't sprint? I guess spartans should just be walking, shooting, elbowing characters forever then. In halo cutscenes and movies, spartans act just like real soldiers; climbing, hiding, sprinting, stabbing and all. But you never talk trash about the cutscenes. Why aren't those "Call of duty" rip offs? But they decide to bring those elements in game, and now it's an issue. HALO 5 IS JUST ADVANCED WARFARE????? So for as long as super soldier games have been out, call of duty 's modern soldier as**s finally decided to make titanfall exosuit future type game, and now everything is copying AW? But then you all have the nerve to say HALO 5 is JUST AW!! When HALO PAVED THE WAY FOR SO MANY EXOSUIT FPS GAMES!!! If anything, other games, that have futuristic soldiers, looked at Halo and said "hmm, that's cool, but lets make it better by making them actually ACT LIKE SUPER SOLDIERS". 343i is trying to let us feel what it's like to be the spartans that were described in the books. What's the problem with that?! You all look at halo and say "what makes halo is not sprinting, cuz that's cod. Not ADS like that, cuz that's cod". As advanced and realistic as these games are, I appreciate 343i trying to make me feel like I'm actually a spartan, and doing true soldier-like, spartan things. Thank you 343. Please know everything you're doing is fantastic, and the real Halo fans that want to see the games evolve will continue to support you.

  • So you start this thread by stating that Halo's greatness cones from the story, but then you never touch that and instead focus entirely on new-Halo being improved by adding sprint. Frankly, I think you're making the same mistakes 343 and focusing too much on how Halo can modernize to match current fps games rather than creating truly epic stories, which they failed at, IMO, with the new story arch. A series of the calibre of Halo should revolutionize, not duplicate.

        • Here is my question to these "false halo fans": What were you expecting? You all ask that halo 5 be the same as halo 2, nothing changed. But if it were like that, we would have the same game every 3 years with just enhanced graphics. Halo is changing, and for the better. It has new features borrowed from other fps's (sprint and smart scope) but in a more balanced form. For example, smart scope may have the same animation as ads, but it still functions the same way as the classic halo zoom with a constant accuracy. It also has new original abilities like clamber and ground pound, all of which are balanced. Before, halo had 3 aspects that made up combat: guns, melee and grenades. Now it has a fourth aspect that continues to preserve the balance of halo; spartan abilities.

            • I had fun on halo 4. But the memories I had in halo 3 playing custom games are unmatched by any gaming experience I have ever had. Reach custom games were alright. All I really want in a good halo game is good times with friends. I have always considered halo to be one of the more social games, rather than competitive.

            • Here's my thoughts on Sprint..I've replied it to a few guy's so sorry to spam it here but let's discuss it. I've seen a common argument over Sprint that's always not thought through. Remove Sprint, increase base moment speed to accomplish a similar effect. TERRIBLE idea. Here's 2 scenarios. With Sprint in halo 5 You're engaged in a br 1v1 in a hallway. You get your opponent to 1 shot an he initiates Sprint to run away. You chase him down at the same speed, while the opponent does not recharge shield. Inadvertly, should he chose to walk away from the fight so he charges as he moves, you HAVE Sprint to stop that from happening. you'll close the gap in time. Halo 5 without Sprint You're engaged in a br 1v1 in a hallway. You get your opponent to 1 shot an he starts to walk away from the fight. You chase him down at the same speed, while the opponent recharges shield as he moves Tell me what sounds better as you turn the sharp corner a you attempt to kill that one shot? Let's assume your team mates are busy here, or that you're not playing with a Mic...we all know team communication is great to get that 1 shot trying to hide but it doesn't always happen. Seeing the guy who JUST stopped sprinting and is still 1 shot? Or bumping into a fully charged opponent who now is advantageous compared to you. You've been baited, and he may get a few shots ahead of you from the get go..or....you guys DRAG the fight out longer. same shit happens. Make sense or am I way off? I feel like that's what would happen.

                • The multiplayer is terrible now. I'm only in it for the story now. Prometheus pretty much summed up the multiplayer problems. Nobody wants a Halo that's like all other games, keep it how it was.

                    Halo is losing it's identity as a game. Any "real Halo fan" would see that.

                    • I know man. I agree with you. Halo must move on. Everything they've promised in the beta is balanced, even though unintelligible idiots rant on about how it's not, because they haven't even read anything about it. I believe halo is changing for the better. Those who don't can go and play their 15 year old games while we side with 343.

                    • For those of you who don't know, halo 5's "ads" isn't even ads. It may have the same animation, but it works just the same way as the classic halo zoom. You have the same amount of accuracy scoping as you do hip firing. You only zoom for range. 343 has confirmed this and so has everyone who played the beta early.

                      Idc if they can run or strafe or ground-pound in the books and lore. I just want an original game that doesn't look extremely cheesy and that doesn't feel extremely similar to other games. I want [i]Halo.[/i] I want Halo's epic [i]vehicle warfare[/i] back. I want Halo's lack of overpowering accuracy rifles. (Seriously, those things totally changed the way the game flowed. It was acceptable in Reach, but Halo 4 was overboard.) I want Halo back, not a sprinting, side-boosting, ground-pounding, weak sound effect, plastic looking game. [spoiler]on a side note, armor looks royally idiotic. They listened to everything fans said about the game and left the bad stuff in and added what we said we didn't want. And you expect the fanbase to be particularly happy?[/spoiler]

                              • I stopped at "could yall make a better game". This is just the most moronic question of all time. This proves nothing. We shouldn't have to be satisfied with a product just because we couldn't make the product better ourselves. We are not developers, so no we can't -blam!-ing make a better game. So you go to Home Depot and buy a window. The window cracks a few days later. But who cares right? I couldn't make a better window so -blam!- it. Your logic is gross pls get it out of my face.

                                • [quote]Could y'all make a better game?[/quote]Could you make a better car? Just because you can't make something doesn't mean you can't determine that it's a piece of crap. While I'm going to wait to play the beta before passing judgment on Halo 5, it's not wrong to criticize things you're certain will negatively impact the game. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people poorly portray dissenters of Sprint in Halo as mindless haters of change. Nor have I seen people debate the valid points.[quote]How are you a future soldier, but can't sprint?[/quote]Don't pull the realism argument in an industry that manufactures fantasy. Why don't you die permanently if you're kill in multiplayer? That's realistic. Are advanced soldiers immortal now? The reason why these things are is because games are engineered to be fun first. Any legacy Halo map would be effected by change in mobility. If a Spartan could pull TitanFall parkour do you think it would positively effect a map like Cold Storage or MidShip? You can plainly see the difference between the Pit in Halo 3 and it's counterpart in Halo 4. Dimensions are increased to compensate for increased movement speed or higher vertical clearance with a jet pack. If it doesn't then it breaks the map that wasn't designed for it. Besides breaking traditional Halo style maps it also has an effect on skirmishes. The personal battles between Spartans is an expression of skill. If a player is losing he can simply sprint away. To catch up a person must drop his weapon and pursue at the same speed otherwise he loses his target. Because of this you are force to hold fire and your target regains shields. It also works the other way, too. In Halo 5 your shields won't recharge while sprinting. If you must flee you will have to flee at a sprint because your attacker will pursue at that speed. If you don't you will not have a chance to regenerate shields before he is upon you and if you do sprint you will both have the same shields as before. Fleeing has always been about breaking line of sight and setting traps for your opponent. Sprinting with this new "balance" still has a double negative effect on the game.

                                  • For all we know Halo 5 has been in development longer than COD advanced warfare. It is quite plausible that COD somehow learned some of what halo 5 had in store then just pumped out a rehashed game with an exo suit and some futuristic weapons. Then at the same time some of the things in halo 5 are just better designed aspects of previous halo games.
