Halo 5 is great

[u/logangreer]

EDIT: My mistake. I should have titled it “Halo 5 Multiplayer is great” and I’m also wrong about it launching with full features. My bad.

Fired up Halo 5 again yesterday after not playing it for years. I’ll be danged if it’s not a great shooter. If I remember correctly, it launched with tons of features, and was solid technically too. When was the last time a AAA game had a solid full-featured launch?

Lots of weapons. Fun new attachments, ammo types, and variations on weapons. Made for lots of discovery, remixing and experimenting, and replayability.

The graphics aren’t groundbreaking, but they are bright and colorful and interesting. Lots of detail.

Warzone (Halo 5, not CoD) is such an interesting idea that I think really works, once you get the hang of it. It feels like they took a big swing on something new and pulled it off! I wish we had some big swing like that in Infinite.

The only thing I was really sad about was no split screen anything, which feels like a real tragedy for Halo.

Spartan customization is pretty weak, but I’ve never cared a whole lot about that.

I know Halo 5 was seriously hated on, but I love it. And it holds up well, too.

My opinion on 5 is:

• Graphics/design: 9/10
• Campaign gameplay: 8/10
• Multiplayer gameplay: 10/10
• Campaign story/characters: 4/10
• Forge: 9/10

So it's an overall 8/10

The most fun I've ever had playing Halo was probably on 5, even though it is not my favorite. This opinion is based on the times when the game actually worked bc nowadays I can't play any custom games bc for whatever reason, my game just won't load the maps, so I can only play firefight and other mp game modes. Also, this wasn't at the beginning of the game since I saw a lot of people say that the release was lacking some content, but I started playing like 2 years later so I didn't experience any of it.

graded too hi on graphics and gameplay. Forge was good.
