Bam, said the lady.

Buck has a heart with a V for Veronica Dare engraved in his armour next to his knife.

Hmm...
Does anyone else get the feeling that Microsoft dumped a boatload of money into the free mappacks to make it a main selling point of the XBO, since the Halo series has always been the Xbox flagship game?

Probably also to sell Halo (even though it'd sell anyway) after Halo 4 and the MCC

That's also true. I know that I was let down at the Halo 5 beta and the MCC shit all over my XBO when I got it, so maybe this game won't be so bad with all that free stuff.

I liked the beta a lot, but it seems as though 343 is handling the campaign well too. Now for customs and forge...

All the weapons were way too powerful faster than they ought to. Map control was broken down a bit with clambering. Infinite sprint. AI callouts automatically.

It just felt very fast, and more of a run-and-gun than Halo 4 was. I'd even say it's more similar to CoD now than it was in 4, even with the removal of loadouts.

The weapons are actually useful now. Especially the AR and SMG. The sandbox is getting some tweaking from beta feedback too.
Sprinting has consequences.
AI callouts can be turned off.

It's feels fast because of movement speed combined with abilities. The kill times are nearly as long as Halo 2's, so it certainly isn't run and gun.

Halo 4 is literally the most similar to CoD than Halo 5 is by a longshot.

That's good, an even start across the board is what I want again, loadouts dont work with Halo.

It doesn't come out for another 4 months so you got time, and even then you don't have to get it right at launch.

I was more talking of DMR and BR. The SMG was fine IMO and I can't remember using the AR. I'm glad the weapons are getting tweaked after feedback, though. That's good news.

And my complaints about the AI callouts are more to do with unaware players getting an awareness boost, as well as the system being potentially exploitable, since it's essentially pinging all the enemy players and letting you know where certain ones are.

Sure, sprinting has consequences and the no-health-recharge-while-sprinting thing is good, but IIRC it's still unlimited sprint. If bullets slowed down sprint speed and there was a limit on duration, I'd be fine with it being in.

And yeah, it does feel fast because of movement and abilities, but IMO sprint + thruster pack is more than enough. Clambering is overkill and it is way too forgiving on the distance you can grab.
