When you want Halo 5 now because they started remaking your favorite classic maps, but at the same time, you don't want to support the future of Halo and a scumbag company like 343i.
Help me out, /v/. What do I do?
Just get halo 5 you faggot it's fucking good.
If the game is good why the fuck don't you want to support the company?
You toss that piece of shit xbone in the trash anon.
I shilled the first Xbox and the 360. But the xbone? NO its shit. Trade it for literally any other console
>>323977707
>Halo 5
>good
mutually exclusive m8
>>323977458
>those textures
New Sandtrap looks ugly
Bet it doesn't even have the elephants
>>323977707
The problem is it's not good. it's hands down the worst Halo in the series. Their shitty mobile games have more heart and soul than Halo 5.
>>323977707
>it's fucking good
This is like saying Mass Effect 3 is good.
Sequels that do every single thing worse than games that came before are not fucking good
Just play Halo 3 maybe?
>>323977707
>Just get halo 5 you faggot it's fucking good.
Too obvious m8.
I miss Halo 3 multiplayer so much
Why did the Xbone have to be so bad? Why does the Halo franchise have to be locked to a console? Why couldn't they have put in a little more effort and ported the Master Chief collection to PC while they were making it? Do they hate money and success?
>>323977959
Hi mobileposter.
>>323977458
Buy it used so you can scratch the itch of your ASSBURGERS while also not feeling quite so guilty about it.
>>323977959
implying that graphics make a game
>>323978183
The single player is shit, sure but Halo 5's multiplayer is probably the most balanced multiplayer of the entire series.
>>323978368
Go start a petition then, PClard. :^)
>>323978546
Nice shitpost nigger
they are horrible nobody said anything about the game
>>323977858
>>323978115
>>323978331
What's bad about it then?
The music is as good as you can get without having marty, there's a huge focus on verticality and mobility which is implemented well and adds to the skill ceiling, it actually has good weapon balance unlike all the other halo games, warzone is actually fun, it has the best forge by far, the MP and SP maps have tons of neat routes and skilljumps, it has fucking fantastic ambient dialog that has the best writing since 2, etc
The game's only problem is that the game's story feels like it's just half of a bigger plotline that 6 will finish (if you thought 2's cliffhanger was bad then boy oh boy) and it's lacking a ton of game modes that should have been there on launch; but once it gets them there's legitimately no excuse to not to get the game.
>>323978183
>that do every single thing worse than games that came before are not fucking good
That's just a blatant lie.
It does weapon balance, mobility, vertacality and forge better then every previous halo game, and this is coming from a guy who has played halo and read the books since 2001.
>>323978667
I didn't think so. The missions themselves were fun and well designed, it didn't butcher character's personalities and make them act out of character for the sake of shoehorning in a plot-line that shouldn't happen like 4 did, etc. It's just the missions are a bit short and as I said, the story itself is sorta uneventful and feels like it's just building up to h6.
>>323977959
>>323978809
Because it was made in forge, which is a map maker/editor that uses preset blocks.
>>323978809
What the fuck are you even talking about.
>>323979083
Spotted a Halofag. Look at how eager you are to defend such a pathetic piece of shit.
>>323979203
What the fuck are you even doing in this thread if you don't like halo?
>>323979203
Why the fuck are you in a Halo thread then?Thatpoststatus:disregarded.
>>323979410
I like everything Bungie had to do with Halo. 343i's attempts to expand on the series are beyoond cringe. Halo is dead.
>>323977458
>scumbag company like 343i
That explains why you hate Halo 4 and Halo 5. Because you hate the company.
Ignore this guy he has no opinion.
>>323979721
Do you jerk yourself off to 343?
Take it from someone who loved Halo. 5 is complete garbage, absolutely nothing good about it. Halo is dead. Don't waste your money like I did on this worthless trash and the god awful Xbone.
>>323979852
>Do you jerk yourself off to 343?
What's to jerk to? There's nothing there that turns me on.
Maybe you should rethink your comment and try again.
>>323977458
Take it from me, some of the forge remakes look better than the originals. THere's a Chiron TL34 remake called Complex, it looks better than the rest of the game itself.
Halo 5 is golden, besides story. Give 343 a brake.
>>323977458
The reason why halo 3's maps were so great was because of physics, elephants and the vehicles didn't look like shit and were fun to drive.
>>323977458

You can't have a good warthog run like in Halo 3 or even Reach, they aren't really that useable.
>>323980438
There's only so much you can do with Forge.
>>323980426
can you spot the Halofag
>>323979679
So then why did you bitch at me for liking halo rather then for liking 343 stuff?
Anyways, Halo 4 had a lot of problems, but it wasn't terrble or even bad, just sup par. It's a good halo game that just fell into the toliet and it's covered in a few layers of shit, but under those layers there's still good stuff.
5 is a fucking fantastic halo game that right now is just lacking some content, but it still has way more content then CE, 2, or ODST had.
Basically:
4:
+ Amazing graphics, almost looks like an xbone game textures aside
+ Point system rewards team play, not just kills, without affecting match outcome
+ Team Mascots
+ Regicide
+ Midnight
+ A ton of other misc stuff it does that's neat
+ Storm rifle
* Spartan ops is meh
* Music isn't bad but it's not marty
- Loadouts as the default
- Mandatory sprint
- Ordinance is pure shit, at least loadouts can be fun for shits and giggles
- No SP theater
- No FF
- Retarded story with chief and cortana's personalities changing
5:
+ Mobility options well done, sprint isn't bad anymore
+ Weapon balance is fantastic
+ tons of vertacility
+ Great core gamplay
+ Warzone and breakout are suprsingly fun
+ Exuberant Witness is cute! CUTE!
+ Music is as close to marty as you can get without marty
+ Blue team, team mechanics are neat
* forge is elder god tier but we only got it 2 months late
- locke is bland
- Story feels like half a game
- Lacking tons of game modes and has only a few maps
- No split screen
You should clarify why you dislike 343's stuff rather then just say it's shit.
>>323979909
You too, explain fucking why
>>323980319
Both CE and 2's maps are better then 3's. IMO, map wise:
2 > CE > 5 > 3 = 4 >>>>>>> Reach
The thing is, while what 5 has map wise is better then 3, it has way less maps then 3 did.
>>323980438
It's a fan made forge map.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ngKY4yhu-U
>>323977458
Get better tastes.
>>323980547
Oh I thought it was official....so they released the sandtrap ground map but not the structures?
>>323977458
its just a map who gives a fuck its not halo anymore
>>323980743All the terrain was forged. It started off as a blank space canvas.
>>323980968
Oh thats cool. I skipped halo 5 so I know nothing about the new forge. Wasn't even sure if it had forge
>>323980662
I don't have to justify a damn thing to you, shill. Get the fuck out.
>>323980662
they've literally added stuff that doesn't need to be in the game
sprint is not improving the game at all and in fact slows it down more because of map stretching
> Bungie halo
> Machinimas
> 16 player custom game weekends
> Great community maps and screen shots
> No robot announcer
> 343 Halo
> None of this shit happens. For some reason
And you people wonder why 343i is not like Bungie
>>323980662
You actually make me sick to my stomach. I can't believe I'm sitting here arguing with you on why every Halo past Reach is garbage. It should be fucking obvious. The fanbase is dwindling at this point. The only reason people stayed is because they bought an Xbone and have nothing else to play. I want to guess you're like 12 years old and your first Halo was 4. You should re-evaluate your life if yoou actually think the trash they push out is good.
>Those shitty building block textures
>Textures on the map in general
Fucking Christ, and this is a game released in 2015 for fucks sake
>>323981097
The new forge is incredible and blows every other version out of the water, but it was released 2 months after the game's launch.
>>323980460
>Micro transactions
You get enough in game points to buy a pack after a single fucking MP match and you can only use those packs in a special bullshit mode anyways, and what you get in a pack is randomized, and you can't use super powerful cards in that special bullshit mode till late into matches anyways.
Buying packs with real money doesn't give you any advantage, it just makes the process faster.
>ADS
It preforms exactly like scope did in previous games, except now automatics have it too and it makes them less shit, which improves the weapon balance, and it gives alternate modes of fire to some guns.
It's literally a good thing.
>Garbage Stories in Halo 4 & 5
Not gonna defend 4's story, as it's complete shit, but 5's is alright, it just ends too early.
>Lying to with false ads that completely misrepresent the game
You mean like how 2 was advertised wth saving earth and ilovebees, and how 3 was with believe and IRIS, and how all of those misrepresented the game?
The ARGS and marketing campaigns for halo have never been accurate, but I bet you aren't even old enough to know about how 2 or 3 was marketed.
>>323981130
>shill
>points out a ton of problems in both 4 and 5
Okay bud.
>>323981494
>I can't refute his arguments so i'm just gonna call him a 4baby and not actually say anything!
>>323981790
everyone knows halo's population peaked with 3 and dropped after reach came out
since then they haven't gone back to the 1-3 formula
since then it's been dying/dead for 5 years now, move on
>>323981636
That was intentional. Fans kept asking 343 for little to no textures on forge blocks so they could create more varieties of maps instead of just Forerunner/UNSC themed.
That's what that map uses for the most part. There is still plenty of blocks with textures on them to use in forge.
>>323981636
Yeah, more than half the official maps look like that too, which indicates they were made in forge. The laziness is astounding. But the rest of the game is shit too so that's practically the least of its problems.
>>323981790
You don't even deserve to be fucking acknowledged if you seriously think Halo 5 has better maps than Halo 3. You and your cancer community stay far away from everyone. Enjoy your soulless empty shell of a game.
>Halo 5 sold so poorly that they're still shilling desperately here 4 months after release
>>323981969
Nobody is talking about population.
Halo's population is so low now because COD took over halo's spot as top dog since 2007, and on top of that, 4 and MCC have killed people's faith in the franchise, an the xbone has a ton of bad rep too.
>>323982274
Again, nice job actually not offering any arguments and just goiing "nah your opinions are shit". 3's maps aren't bad, but they are a huge step down from CE and 2's maps. 5's maps return to the design phiolophies CE and 2 had.
Also, 3 had the two worst halo MP maps ever, snowbound and isolation.
I'm betting you got into the series with 3.
It sucks that 343 killed Halo and bungie's Destiny isn't going anywhere. I want a fucking space shooter I can play with friends.

>>323982274
>3's maps

>>323982834
That's true, but obviously, for later titles, a lot of people choose to go with CoD games over halo games, especially since COD has a yearly cycle while halo has a 3 year cycle
>>323977458
Buy Halo 5
You sound like those fags on reddit that bitch about 343 while at the same time sucking their dicks.
>>323982867

and is slow garbage

>>323983051
>I find it ironic you guys are talking about maps in h5 since I just watched this shit and couldn't stop laughing
>they really only have one slayer map eh?
There were 9 base maps, 3 forge canvases (bigger then sandbox but not as big as forge world), and 7 maps made on forge, and 3 warzone maps at launch. Since then, they've added a bunch of BTB forge maps, 1 new warzone map, and 1 new normal map.
there's gonna be a total of 15 maps added over time, all of them free.
>>323983501
source? would love to rub this in peoples faces
>>323982667
You may actually be retarded. You're telling me that Halo 5's middling, and not to mention, generic as fuck roster of maps are better than Guardian, Sand-trap, The Pit, Narrows, Construct, High Ground, Valhalla, and Last Resort? I've heard literally no one praise Halo 5 maps. As a matter of fact, you're the first. Not only does each map have some of the most generic aesthetics in the series, but they aren't even memorable. No one will be talking about these maps but you. Forge creators are making better maps as we speak.
>Liking Halo in the first place.
Honestly, you're already a shit-eating child.
You may as well go the whole hog and buy the latest installment of Baby First FPS series.

As much as I mildly enjoyed HW, it was what put the final nail into Ensemble's coffin
>>323977458
Please tell me that's like a pre-pre-pre alpha greybox prototype and not the actual finished map. How did they manage to make it look worse than Halo 3?
>>323984216
It's a fan made forge map.
>>323984216
Nope, that's what forge in Halo 5 looks like, shit is ugly and textureless because of the MUH ESPORTS maps that look like paintball arenas. It's an embarrassment.
>>323983539
oh so we're not talkin quality over quantity
>>323984216
its a FORGE map
>>323977458
>343i continues using forge so they can half-ass their map remakes instead of actually making them look good
Come on, now
>>323984713
343 didn't make this, it's fan made, terrain and all.
>>323977458
Gotta admit the new forge is tempting me.
>>323984713
What do you expect? They're hacks, no talent and lazy as fuck. Par for the course for this garbage game.
>>323984798
>leaves it to the fans to make half-assed map recreations instead of actually remaking the maps everybody wants back
Is that better?
The new forge is pretty fucking amazing. I do hate the new no-texture blocks, though. They look super distracting and weird.
>>323984980
This almost has that whole Halo CE feel going to it, but ingame it would look like shit wouldn't it?
>>323985003
Except that 343 has nothing to do with the making of this map at all. It's not in matchmaking or anything.
The campaign of 5 has to be the worst yet, its so fucking boring. Gameplay is good. The multiplayer is barebones as fuck, this game gives battlefront a run for its money in terms of no content
>>323977458
Let go, anon.
I know it's hard.
I know.
But you have to cherish the memories of Halo
and accept that it has died.
You have to let go.
>>323985406
Seriously, it has like what, 3 maps in the arena rotation with night and day versions?
>>323985406
It's weird because the campaign of 4 waspretty fucking good and fun.
Disagree about the multiplayer, though. Shit's cash, and it's got more content thandestiny
>>323981154
Even in campaign. It takes me forever to get up some dumb forerunner ramp because its long as fuck, and overly wide. Every room in the game is giant. It's retarded
>>323985568
personally I hated the campaign of 4
those stupid fucking knights were fucking shitheads
>>323982867
Halo 5 has some of the most boring and bland maps ever, the fact that you think 3s are bad just proves you're 343 shill
>>323984980
The scripting is what sold it for me.
The fact that some people even made a working ivory tower elevator blows my mind.
>>323985092
not necessarily. I quite like the clean aesthetic of the blocks.
while I haven't played halo 5, I have played the new unreal tournament which has many unfinished maps with place-holder textures not dissimilar to this aesthetic.
It doesn't bother me as I never find multi-player to be an 'immersive' experience anyway and I can imagine what a fully realised AAA version of the map would look like.
>>323980460
halo 1 had ads...
>>323983501
>source: my ass
>>323985679
I liked it. It was the only halo that kept me engaged enough for a few solo legendary runs.
>>323985505
And it has like 6 playlists I think? Not to mention Arena is just strongholds with an occasional Slayer game. And breakout is just Slayer in rounds
>>323982274
not even him but dear god you haven't said anything to refute any arguments yet. why the shit are you here again?
>>323981667
Do objects have physics? If not its shit.
343i built the best map maker Halo has ever seen and there's only 4 game types in the hole fucking game. Whats the point?
>Halo ODST (MCC)
>getting comfy and looking for data logs throughout the city for the last few hours
>achievement for #28 refused to unlock and now I'm unable to get #29, #30 or the achievement for all of them
I don't normally care about achievements, but... I dunno. Is there a word for 'so mad that you can feel your stomach churn like you're about to vomit'?
>>323986335
you can set them to have physics or not
also you can weld objects together and they'll act like one big physics object
>>323986761
Sounds like the only thing they got right was forge then.
>>323986335
Forge objects have had "physics" since reach, you can change something from
-fixed (stays in place)
-normal (drops to the ground and is affected by player interaction)
and
-phased (stays in place and can be moved into other objects and geometry)
But if you want an object to do something specific you can script anything to do pretty much whatever, along with being able to weld blocks together and move it like it was one block.
>Microsoft touting around free maps as if they're equivalent to the DLC maps of old
this is really what upsets me the most. I'm fine and actually happy with them porting over old maps like this but I really hate the sly marketing tactics.
>>323986378
I take that back, there are 3 game types, that work in Forge. CTF, 3-Plots, and Slayer. Its been 4 months since launch and there's still no: Juggernaut, Oddball, Assault, or, the single most popular game mode from the last 2 bungie games, Infection. Please stop shilling your failure of a game Microshit.
Its a shame. Terrible campaign, no splitscreen, no infection, pay for power weapons.
Forge is pretty sweet though i guess.
>>323987056
>pay for power weapons.
Confirmed for not playing the fucking game.
>>323987043
They aren't porting over the old maps, sandtrap is made by a player.
Whatever happened to that goddamn RU only Halo Beta?
>can spend money on packs
>packs contain power weapons, vehicles, power ups and permanent weapon upgrades
>>323987213
Eh it was a neutral point for me anyway.
The main point still stands, however. Can't really complain cause it's free, but forge maps are still ugly as fuck.
>>323987462
>confirmed for not playing the game
Sandtrap was the best level to fuck around in.
>>323987658
>the elephant will never be in forge
Why Bungie? Why 343? Why do you hate fun so much?
>>323987658
Rocket race on sandtrap. So many gratifying guardian kills.
>>323987462
Haven't played the game and even I can tell you that it literally doesn't matter; it only applies to their Warzone mode which looks like ass anyway.
>permanent weapon upgrades
wasnt aware of such a thing, guess that makes Warzone all the less fun for new players.
Is BTB in yet?
>>323987807
There is literally nothing better than giant vehicles that you can all walk around in.
>>323977458
>too lazy to make textures
>>323987857
>which looks like ass anyway.
It's surprisingly fun. I thought it would be a gimmicky "play it once every once in a while" mode but it's really good. Also you earn enough in game points after 1 match to buy a pack anyways, the only reason to ever do iit with real money is to unlock armor faster.
Don't know what permanent weapon upgrades he means, unless he's talking about how the spawn guns in warzone have unlock able variants like all the other guns, but they arent' consumable.
>Is BTB in yet?
Yes, though sadly only with forge maps.
>>323988110
it's a user made forge map.
>>323977458
Halo 5 is garbage and so is 343, bone isn't worth it either. No amount of halo 3 maps will change that
>>323979083
>Music
It feels like four all over again. At least the title screen music for 5 was good. Everything else just feels like generic action movie music.
Just fuck Four's title screen music, I hate it so goddamn much, every time I booted the game up it just pissed me off.
>>323980662
They should've just made Locke intoTHE COLE TRAIN BABY.
The game would be so much better as a result, Locke is such a boring fucking brick along with his group of racially sensitive friends, save for Buck of course.
>>323977458
Just get it, its great, its not HALO, but its a great game by itself

Halo fags are the worst, I get halo in its prime but 5? Come on, there are so many better games on the rise right now and you fanboys still latch on to the most generic shit
>>323988597
I don't even remember this track.
Sounds alright I guess, it doesn't really pop out at me though.
>>323978115
I have never played Halo 5 but can you please explain? I find it very hard to believe that it is worst than Halo 4 and thought 343 spent the majority of their development time fixing the multiplayer.
and no putting ads and innate armor abilities does not make it inherently worst than 4

admit itttttt. its not the argument. its the arguing.
>>323989213
I really don't know what you're pointing out here, this sounds like it belongs in an Action movie.
This could've easily been playing the background of the fucking Avengers and I wouldn't notice.
halo 5 is okay but there is just something about the maps that is shitty compared to 3 and even 2.
a couple of them are too similar to each other, and there arent any real outdoor maps of any decent size, no vehicles, half of the textures are just flat solid colors
it just makes me want to go back to mcc and play halo 3, but then i remember i get absolutely fucking destroyed playing that game now and half of the team always quits

Jesus christ. What is the point
>>323977458
Halo 5's core mechanics, mainly it's controls and movement system is fantastic. Reward them for their hard work. As long as you don't touch the campaign you won't be disappointed.
>>323989946
whats sad is i actually checked to see if there was any australia related map in halo 3 before making an angry post saying fuck off cunt there isnt one
>>323989841
and even though the game runs at 60 fps, when stuff is happening the other player character animations are definitely less
>>323990537
whats that matter. 60 fps is about reaction times, not, "how pretty it looks"
>>323992836
>60 fps is about reaction times,
Not unless the tick rate is also 60
>>323993260
no, technically not. since a faster framerate means a faster reaction time, itll help you react quicker, even if a tick rate limits how effectively you use it. argue as small as you want, but a 1 tick rate 60 fps is better then a 1 tick rate 30 fps. the 60 fps could see something at about 3% faster then the 30 fps 1 tick rate sucker...
>>323977458
>which team won't quit the match first?: the map
>>323977458
If you don't like a game then you shouldn't buy it for a single map you used to like. Just get the latest Call of Duty if you need a shooter that bad, that's what Halo is slowly becoming anyway.
>>323977707
They removed local multiplayer, something that the Halo series has always had, that's enough reason to not want to support them.
>>323977458

It's so rare to play a game of 5 where someone doesn't get. I have definitely played more games where someone quits than staying full teams. Sure people quit in Bungie's halos but never anything like 4 and especially 5
