Quote from: FatherlyNick on August 01, 2015, 06:48:49 AMyeah, about that...Hopefully Halo 5 improves on other areas.
and Reach was nothing more than a demo for Destiny and a piss poor attempt to get out of Halo.

If you turn it off you get the regular follow-cam.

I've only ever played multiplayer, so I can't really say much about the campaign.So, what's the main appeal of most multiplayer shooters? Well, for me, it's the weapons. If you have good weapons that are fun to use, you're probably gonna have yourself a fun game.The weapons suck. Almost all of them. The weapon that's considered the best overall gun (the battle rifle) also happens to be the least fun to use. Why the fuck does it fire in short bursts like that? It's so awkward and unintuitive. I much prefer the SMG or the assault rifle, except they both suck--even if you hit them with every last round, if they're carrying a battle rifle, you're gonna die first.The pistol is piss-useless, except in Halo 1, where it's supremely overpowered.Shotguns are brainless. If someone has a shotgun, it's literally a matter of who pulls the trigger first. No skill whatsoever.I can't think of any of the others because they're all so unmemorable. That's the other thing--memorability. Even if the game uses cliche weapon designs, like sniper rifles, they can at least make an effort to give it a cool or unique design. Which Halo completely fails to do.The only weapon I like is the energy sword. Because it's a sword, and it kills you in one hit if you lock on with it. That's the only cool weapon in the game.The maps are all boring and unmemorable as well. Most of them use a dark, murky color palette that looks like shit. The ones that are nice and bright are maps like Blood Gulch and Valhalla, where the maps are clearly designed for very large servers with 8+ people. Playing a game that has more than eight players at once is always a clusterfuckity nightmare.Those are the two biggest things. Bad weapons, bad maps. Bad game. Awful game.And it's just a matter that I really have to strain myself to think of things that I actually enjoy about it.
I like Halo
