Basically. Halo had it's own identity. The fact that there are people thatove it now because it feels similar to other shooters is a problem. Imagine if you hopped on the next COD game and it had shields + health, guns that take 4-5 trigger presses to kill a player, no sprint and no ads......it would feel as if you are playing a different franchise. It would alienate the original fan base.

Anyway...I'll be home today so i'll be playing h5...anyone from the coli can holla at me....plz don't suck.

breh, it still plays way more like Halo than CoD. In fact only thing it has in common mechanically with CoD is sprint. That's about it.

that big team battle update is funny to me...one, they should have never kept the most popular playlist from launch (they only did it to push that warzone trash) and two, the maps are all forged remakes by community members...lazy shyt. 343 couldn't make btb maps? real maps?

it's good they didnt take months to add it tho and then doubles this wknd...good shyt

and clamber and the fake ads

and clamber and the fake ads

exactly, fake ADS. it's purely cosmetic. Guns are as accurate from the hip as they are in ADS. Is it unnecessary, yes, but doesn't affect gameplay much.

Clamber is modern game mechanics period. And combined with Halo's jumping, it still feels very different from CoD.

The AR is more accurate with ADS. It was during the beta and ppl complained and then 343 lied about tweaking it for the release and it still had this issue. I think all the automatics are better when zoomed in.

Halo has never needed clamber. We are using Spartans that can jump higher than the normal man. All clamber does is make the game clunky in terms of movement. Any movement option that forces you drop your gun in an arena shooter (what halo was designed to be) is an issue. Clamber also forces 343 to make maps like PLAZA, Which is complete and utter trash with all its ledges and platforms to grab. Clamber also makes predicting Mao movement a bit complicated that it should be. Not a fan of it in halo.

True, that is fukked up. But I was thinking more the pistol, Br, SR and DMR. They need to fix that shyt.

Yea those guns perform the same with or without zoom. The game has potential it's just some stuff holding it back from being a great halo game.
