Now it's settled in. The forums are no longer plagued by constant Halo 5 hype. What are your final thoughts? In my opinion it is the new worst of the series. 4 had it's problems. Mostly the multiplayer. But the game had a good campaign and a lot of content and playlists at release. Split screen. Much better armor customization and unlocks weren't random. Halo 5 had a mediocre campaign with meh story and reused bosses, awful unlock system and microtransactions. Custom games and Forge are only just starting to be a thing after the game isn't even relevant enough to stay alive through them. I think this game is the nail in the coffin that Halo will never reach the days from when Bungie made it. But I will still buy Halo 6 just to see the series through.

Modifié par xBELTWAYx : 1/25/2016 6:53:38 AMHalo 3 was worst of the series. Halo 5 didn't have a great campaign but it was enjoyable to play through at least. I had to drag myself through the Halo 3 campaign. And don't get me started about MP. Why the -blam!- did super soldiers move like -blam!-ing snails?

Least fun campaign in the series so far. I enjoyed the multiplayer at first, but the more I played it the more I wished it was simpler. Games kept dragging on until the time ran out, people kept running away from fights, and I kept getting upset at how many buttons I have to press just to keep up. Warzone was fun the first time as a novelty gamemode, but seeing as it was the only social mode at launch, it got pretty stale very quickly. The maps aren't very unique or fun, the whole design idea behind the maps, have the same design with a few tweaks, makes it feel like I'm playing only 3-4 maps. With no veto system you play the same map in a row as well, making the already small map base even smaller.

2 commentairesWorst. Halo. Ever

2 commentairesTrash story. Severely lacking in features and content from the previous games. The movement/abilities changed map design and Time-to-Kill getting rid of the original Halo multiplayer. Art style is just as disgusting as it was in "halo" 4. Render distance is bad. Very little character customization. You "earn" almost everything via RNG instead of unlocks.

4 commentairesCampaign- 6/10 Arena-9.5/10 Warzone-7.5/10 Forge-9/10 REQ System-8/10 Overall Score *Currently* 8/10 After more free DLC + game modes/playlists + file share I would give it a 9/10. Perfect score if the campaign wasn't so ehh. Not that many other campaigns in Halo were all that good, but I thought this one had great potential and left us with a cliffhanger and a short story. Love the multiplayer and forge at the moment though!

1 commentaireWell since most of the bulk of classic halo content is still missing...Can't really give a final thought. But as of right not, The MP is great. As for the campaign...it was a good setup for halo 6. But that's about it

4 commentairesI have no final thoughts as there is more to come. Currently though really enjoying the MP as it's fantastically balanced in the Arena I love the ranked skill based system like Trueskill of Halo 3. The new movements and the Spartan abilities are great. Warzone is good with big groups of friends but can be frustrating at times when playing lone wolf against coordinated teams. Those that say it's pay to win make me laugh as everything is unlockable by normal play and it only affects Warzone. Campaign was enjoyable but those not familiar with the lore may not enjoy it as much I did, Blue Team could have featured more and their characters more developed. They featured less for a reason though. The friendly AI was useless at times worse or on par with some other Halo games. I like the squad command feature 4 player drop in system and the way you can save multiple campaigns at once. I see people constantly complaining that they felt the advertising lied to them regarding the campaign. Personally I don't think they actually understand what symbolism means and they were a little naive if they thought Locke was truly going to hunt Chief and kill him or visa versa. Forge is awesome but takes practice and the creations the community keep making since it's been available in December are pretty impressive. I have played a lot of cool customs so far and recreated maps. They do need to add more playlists, more have been announced and infection has also been confirmed for future but need others to return too. Fileshare is thankfully also rumoured to be coming. I would also like Firefight or Spartan Ops added too. Split-screen should have been included but most people do not play local anymore, not excusing its omission though. CoD always includes not comparing the two but Blops 3 included it. Sadly it seems 343 followed Bungievision's lead and cut the split-screen just like they did with destiny. At least they managed a fixed 60fps instead of 30 though, playing shooters at 30fps is so jarring now, not that I play that particular game anymore. I have no problem with req system but do feel the arena yield should be increased. I do think they should have gifted those those that completed the campaign on legendary an mythic/Legendary armour set and emblem via a req pack. Commendation based armour and skins as well as RNG req armour should be included, the Company commendation based armour is a good start. I have played every Halo since Halo CE back in 2001 and I thoroughly still enjoy Halo 5. More playlists and a few other things and this game could be epic not just great. Free content is a good bonus though. Wall of text over, people will disagree others may agree but that's my current thoughts on the game.

Why not just rent the next one on redbox?

First time ever played halo 5 Hated multiplayer (war zone) only because it practically takes an entire magazine to kill an enemy player. I don't know if this is how it usually goes with multiplayer in the halo franchise but I'm not a fan. The campaign's pretty cool, though it dragged on.
-
It's honestly really good imo. Plus new stuff in free dlc and new game types coming will make it almost perfect to me.
-
7.5-8/10
-
Quite a few steps in the right direction, but not without tripping a few times to get there. 8.5/10.
-
Mp- great with friends forge- has it"s flaws but is great. Customs- eh need more game types Campaign- didn't like it, false advertisement Also free dlc Over all solid 7/10 much much better than 4
-
Honestly wasn't sure what to think before, really wasn't sure and didn't have too much faith in it. But after playing it at a friend's house, I was sold. The game's fantastic
-
I enjoy it. Campaign was cool but definitely not the best. I love the multiplayer though. Sure it's a little different but it still feels like halo to me.
-
I quite liked it much better than halo 4 in campaign and multiplayer is awesome
-
Multiplayer is good Campaign is garbo
-
It's a super fun game with a different campaign from the others which took a different type of attention to understand and enjoy. All around a good game though.

4 commentairescampaign story is a let down, the gameplay however is one of the best mp was good at first but all its glaring issues have come through oh well hope for halo 6

Modifié par AbioticApple : 1/24/2016 11:42:19 PMCampaign is lackluster. Multiplayer surprisingly feels like halo and is one of the best multiplayers I've played. Forge is amazing once you get used to it. [spoiler]seems that 343 can only be good at multiplayer or campaign.[/spoiler]
-
Solid campaign, great multiplayer. 8.9/10. Needs content but 343 will come through
-
Extremely fun multiplayer and gameplay mechanics. Story was not that interest but the campaign levels were fun and well designed. It needs way more maps for arena. Can't keep adding only map every update. Add 2 or 3 so it's exciting again.

Best mp to date

1 commentaireSecond best halo multiplayer in the series, right behind halo 3. The campaign wasn't the greatest and everyone saying that they reuses the same boss is an idiot and didn't pay attention that Warden Eternal is one mind in a million bodies. The micro transactions do absolutely nothing to ruin the game, forge mode is there now so stop bitching about it not being there, custom games are still being played, this game is far from dead and I love it!
