so what exactly about pic related is better than 3? or 2?
>inferior ranking system that matches unbalanced teams with 10 level differences
>60fps at the sacrifice of resolution and split screen
>3 chief missions, is this even a halo game?
Nobody anywhere has ever said it was better than 3 or 2. But that doesn't make it fucking bad, jesus christ.
>>329164748
you haven't heard the "best since h2" meme?
also its not necessarily bad but its not very good either. mediocre at best since it doesn't really separate itself from other fps anymore
>>329164931
>"best since h2" meme?
They're talking about MP 100% of the time, at least after the game came out
>>329165592
>They're talking about MP 100% of the time
h5 doesn't even come close to 2
3 is closer and 5 is a lot more like 4 gameplay wise
>>329165874
Halo 5 is Halo 4 but good
Also Halo 2 MP along with Halo 3, were only fun because you were young/the community
Halo 5 is a lot of fun, but the community isn't what it used to be
>>329166197
>young
I was 20 years old when h3 came out

Nothing about this shit is better than 3 or 2
>>329167112
Story Wise the game is better, which is saying something since literally nothing happened in this game
>>329167197
Halo 5's story was so disappointing
Not only did it make the promos and shit pointless, but had Locke and Chief done nothing, the outcome would have been the same.
I wouldn't say its shit, but something needs to be accomplished
>>329164337
Halo 5 is shit.
Halo 4 is shit.
343i is shit.
Halo has been shit for 5 years.
Its community has been shit for 6 years
LET THE FUCKING THING DIE.
>>329164337
level differences mean nothing. They're based on XP and the main thing that determines that is amount you've played.
Skill is ranked by tier (Onyx, Diamond, Platinum, Gold, etc).
0/10 made me reply.
>>329167197
What? The story in 5 was awful
>>329167685
And so was Halo 3's. I didn't think so until last time I played it, but it just wasn't that good.. At all.

We could argue that at least Halo 4 had a good campaign and it wasn't full-blown CoD, including the engine.
>>329167906
Halo 4 had a good-ish story, but awful MP
Halo 5 had a bad story, but awesome MP
So Halo 6 should be great... R-Right?
>>329167903
>trying to imply halo 5 had a good story when chief is turned to a sidecharacter
343 fanboys are such fucking cancer.
>>329167991
Halo 4's multiplayer still had some semblance of Halo though, 5 is literally CoD with some Halo assets.
>>329168109
I never said it was good you ass-hat, I just said it was better than 3's
>>329168140
Please play the game before you speak out your ass
Halo 5 is actually pretty fun, disregarding the single player that is. It's the only Halo I've enjoyed since 3.
Also,Halo 5 Grifball is the best version by far.
>>329167657
>theres only 30 levels but it'll match you against people out of your division
awful
Gameplay is great, forge fucking rules.
Weapon sandbox is actually balanced to the point where pretty much every weapon is fairly useful, unlike 2 and 3 where about a third of the weapons were beyond garbage.
Movement in general still feels very Halo, but they introduced stuff that expanded movement options and made firefights interesting.
New shit like Breakout and Warzone are surprisingly fun as changes from the core game modes.
>>329169990
>Gameplay is great
how? with sprint? lol
>>329169176
>mfw even the rank icons are over-designed
jeez
>>329169990
the weapon balance has actually gotten worse throughout the series
I could jump out of the way of rockets in h2 even when the guy had leverage
in reach the guy could kill me with rockets even by shooting the wall under me when I have leverage, it was like a nuke
>>329170431
Base movement speed is increased, sprinting prevents shields from recharging, so you can't use it to run away from a fight or else you're just giving the dude a free kill.
>>329171552
it shouldn't even b in the game to begin with. maps are too big now. truth is a perfect example. in fact I think truth is the only team slayer map that can be played competitively
>>329171552
sprint with the fast as fuck kill times really slow the game down
>>329168140
This, it's just sad at this point
>>329172226
5 is really really slow paced because of the kill times I think that's what he means
they've also fucked up the aiming with dead zones
>>329171939
Rig is actually an excellent map and usually the go to pro choice
>>329172121
The kill times are about equal to 2's you 3 baby. CE had even faster kill times.
Fucking 3 and reach babies need to stop talking about Halo
>>329172359
but terrible for slayer right? you totally ignored that I said slayer
>>329172452
>comparing 3 and reach
how dare you. 3 and reach are nothing alike
5 has more in common with 4 than reach and 3
>>329172121
you understand that sprint with slow kill times would slow the game down more, right?
>>329171420
Halo 2's balance was ass. If you weren't using a BR or power weapon you were fucked. Same for 3's balance, but even worse since they buffed power weapons and nerfed everything else to make it casual friendly
halo 1 or bust desu
>>329172340
Gotta be honest, personally I just hate the direction the series it was going. I got the H4 console because I was excited for more Halo after how great the series had been up to that point, and it wasn't anything like I expected. I hated 4 for feeling like CoD, and I didn't like the story for the single player, and Halo 5 just went further along both routes in my opinion.
If other people like it, that's cool, but I personally can't stand it, I beat the single player in a day and gave my friend his copy back, and everyone I know with a few exceptions has sold their copies out of disappointment.
>>329172657
>constantly caught out in the open due to map stretching because of sprint
>nowhere to run just dead because times to kill
>>329172690
>or power weapon
man, I would destroy you with duel smgs or smg and pistol
you were probably too stupid to get close to someone and get bxr'd
>>329172561
Rig is fine for slayer. Also, 3, reach, and 4 all have in common their horrible competitive mp. 3 and reach for being slow and floaty with horrible balance, 4 for retarded shit like flinch and load outs
>>329172869
>3 and reach for being slow and floaty with horrible balance
you literally have no idea what you're talking about you're just parroting what other people say LOL
3 and reach are completely different fucking games
>>329172832
Your grammar is fucking awful and nothing you say makes any logical sense.
>you were probably too stupid to get close to someone and get bxr'd
So it's good to get bxr'd? Faggot.
>>329172832
If you're using dual smgs you're a dumbass. BR + power weapon was the only way to play without fucking yourself over at some range. The balance is horrible. Dual smgs gets you 1 kill at best, then you're stuck reloading for 5 seconds
>>329173024
Yea, they're both shit. Reach had fucking rng bloom on its weapons until 343 fixed Bungie's attempt at casualizing the series further. Halo 3 had slow as fuck kill times and slow as fuck movement speed
>>329168140
Holy fuck no. 4 was the most CoD Halo ever got.
>Killstreaks
>Custom classes
>introduced sprint
>FUCKING KILLSTREAKS
5 at least brought back even starts and power weapons.
>>329173170
you're probably just bad at h3, usually people who complain about halo being floaty or bullety spongy are bad at it. halo 5 also has a gimped jump height unlike halo 1-3.
>>329173170
>complaining about slow movement when h5 has even slower movement without sprint
its literally a game breaking mechanic and you're retarded for defending it
I don't know why Halo 2 is seen as the best Halo
>less exploration from CE
>game feels overall less magical (dat open world snow level in CE)
>butchered the Warthog handling
>changed the Ghost handling
>less banshee flights
>shorter campaign
Though the soundtrack on H2 was pretty based

>>329174434
people are usually referring to the multiplayer. pros will say that halo 1 is the best 2v2 console fps and halo 2 is the best 4v4 console fps
>>329174145
>Halo 5 has even slower movement without sprint
It has higher base movement speed than 3 and 2, the fuck are you smoking?
>>329174720
it also has larger maps which makes the movement speed redundant
Halo 5 best multiplayer without question. NO QUESTION.
Halo 1 is THE ONLY single player with a story that isn't complete BS.
Campaign wise? Still think 1 is far superior to the rest.
There's just no question that 5 has the best multi.

>>329175040
you also forgot multiplayer
>we will never play blood gulch warlock lockout midship or basically any classic 4v4 map ever again
>>329174797
No it doesn't.
Base movement speed isn't just about getting from point A to point B, it's also largely about strafing and closing distance between you and your opponent.
>>329175194
if you don't think that halo 5 has bigger 4v4 maps than any of the originals you are absolutely delusional
truth is way bigger than midship because its been modernized. have you even watched any competitions? they usually talk about it
>>329175154
You will if you remake them in forge.
5's forge allows for essentially 1:1 recreations of every previous map in Halo history. There are also gameplay settings you can change in customs to make the movement speed and jump height equal to that of CE / 2 / 3 / Reach, and disable whatever spartan abilities you want to.
With the CE pistol, you can now basically recreate any Halo game.
Turning Chief into a side character triggered me.

no, im not doing that. forge will never be the same as an actual map not to mention the lag
>>329175329
I didn't say that the maps aren't bigger than most of the original 3 (CE PC however has much bigger maps). I said that it doesn't make the movement speed redundant, since movement speed factors into other elements than just map traversal.

but you're trying to brag about h5 having faster movement when the larger maps pretty much make it redundant
>>329175561
I'm not going to play customs
It's not, don't let the dudebros that ended up on /v/ and shilsl tell you otherwise. They are pretty much conditioned to like anything COD like.
There hasn't been a good Halo game since 2007.
>>329175645
>I'm not going to play customs
343 already announced they're going to do a throwback playlist at some point using forged recreations.
>>329175645
>but you're trying to brag about h5 having faster movement when the larger maps pretty much make it redundant
But it doesn't.
Faster movement speed is important because it factors largely into strafing, escaping, chasing etc.
Also, the movement speed of sprint is at least 2x that of 3, and 5's average map size is not 2x that of 3.
>>329175561
When the fuck are these maps going to make it into the playlist hoppers? I'd take this shit over almost every map in BTB right now.
>>329175842
>Faster movement speed is important because it factors largely into strafing, escaping, chasing etc.
its cute watching try to act like you know what you're talking about when none of the maps have enough CQC and is all pretty much long range twitch combat
even if you tried to make halo 5 play like classic halo it would be an absolute shit show. h2a was a better halo game than 5
>>329176036
No idea.
Probably with the March update.
>>329176076
>and is all pretty much long range twitch combat
It's cute that you try to talk about how 5 plays when you've never played it.
60% of fights in 5 are at mid range. Either at the far end of pistol range, or just outside of non zoomed pistol.
30% of fights are at close range, where automatics are king.
And then 10% of fights take place over long distances.
It's stupid to fight at long distance in a game like Halo (if you don't have a power weapon), because usually someone will just go behind cover.
>>329175040
What song is that?
I'm actually having fun playing grifball
>>329176328
>I've literally never played an arena shooter or classic halo before
>>329176036
343 is looking into BTB maps currently. I think the deadline is in the second week of March or something.
>>329176328
>It's stupid to fight at long distance in a game like Halo (if you don't have a power weapon), because usually someone will just go behind cover
it's called team work my friend. dropping his shields still helps your team get leverage but h5 is too slow that guy will probably never be found
>>329176924
Same. Didn't touch the game for months, then heard Grifball is back so I tried it, and now i'm playing that mode everyday.
>>329174903
>There's just no question that 5 has the best multi.
still didn't answer what's better about it. pretty sure the only reason you like it is because its way easier
>>329164337
on par with 2 multiplayer, better than 3's multiplayer by light years.
balanced back with map control over power weapons.
5 has a better forge than all of previous halos combined.
story modes meh compared to 4.
reach was a trash game that removed skill, only good thing about reach was customization and forge.
people who said reach was a good game were probably never good at halo to begin with.
>>329179161
>balanced back with map control over power weapons.
nobody goes for them because you die too fast
so...forge is better? that's all?
>>329164337
>so what exactly about pic related is better than 3? or 2?
nothing? who's saying it is? people on waypoint or reddit don't count
>>329179530
ton of retards are saying its the best since h2 yet it has more in common with halo 4 gameplay wise
>>329179530
Desperate 343 shills and dickriders
>>329179459
>nobody goes for them because you die too fast
sounds like you don't even own the game or never played it, or you just watched videos.
you died fast in halo 2, you don't die fast in this game if you know how to maneuver, and majority of the matches are still won by taking power weapons.
on truth prophets bane and plasma caster pick ups and zone controls will win you the map.
it seems like you're looking for an argument.
Is the MCC worth getting?
I'd like to replay the first 2 and beat ODST and 4 which I never did before.
>>329168140
Holy fuck, what the hell are you even talking about?
4 is the epitome of CoD Halo, and they did away with that shit in 5.
Do you even play the game?
>>329175645
Good god look at yourself. Halo 5 is best multi. Your over here sperging out about movement speed. Nobody gives a shit about the movement speed.
>>329179949
>Putting warmed up citrus fruit on a pizza

Only Halo multiplayer worth playing was 1, I was real fucking upset when 343 fucked up the Halo 1 pistol as well, it has massive spread and is hitscan so it works nothing like the original.
who /haloonlinepc/ here
pls play
>>329180363
if it is the best why does it have a smaller population than what 3 had IN ITS THIRD YEAR? why wouldn't it have close to that plus more?
>>329175842
5's maps are not much bigger than 3's, and honestly most of the added size comes from verticality and not an increase in xy dimensions overall. gameplay honestly feels fast as fuck, and the abilities make movement more dynamic than ever.
>>329164337
>that brutal ranking system in Halo 2
Holy fuck those were the days.
I remember nearly popping a testicle when some cunt Standby-glitched to win a game at it cost me my Sun Rank Icon.
Such intense rage. Goddamn I cared far too fucking much about this game.
>>329177721
>h5
>slow
maybe in btb or warzone, in normal arena a guy getting his shields dropped results in death an overwhelming majority of the time. The only chance of escaping is creative juking an hiding. The inability to recharge shields while sprinting avoids the cut and run combat of halo 4, which was way more dmr/br centric.
>>329175381
idk i feel like they only advertised it as a mainline halo game to get buys, but it was actually just a spinoff with a chief cameo
>>329164337
>10 level differences
call me up next time you get a low gold player when you're in diamond. that shit never happens. if you're talking about spartan level, that's just time/boost related, and not directly related to your mmr.
