The new zoom mechanic for Halo 5 is great.

I hate to make the comparison but it does work in the same way and as well in games like CoD. You push down the left trigger to go in it and you release it to get out. So no more constantly clicking the analog stick to get in and it. It's a lot faster and easier. It also still has the dropout thing as well when you're talking damage. When you get shot you get out and it keeps you out of it until you're talking no more damage. So you can hold down the left trigger and not once get into it if I'm firing at you with the AR.

Sounds good, should give automatic weapons a fair chance now. I'm really interested to see how it looks on the Needler and other Covenant weapons. Damn, really wish I had a code...

The AR does handle very well in this. In Halo 4 the weapon wasn't so bad for medium range but now it's a lot better since you're able to see that player a little better in it. In Halo 4 the automatic weapons were around the same level as the semi weapons but now they're pretty much in the same ballpark(AR and SMG wise.).

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

The zoom in is actually a nice improvement and fits the current gameplay style.

Doesn't mean you will like the new style though

Does it at least give you a menu option to toggle whether or not you hold it to zoom, like it does for crouching?

I think it's a nice modernization, but I think the scopes themselves are a bit unnecessarily cluttered with holograms and stuff.
I saw a glimpse of the sniper zoom-in, though, and that animation looked disorienting as fuck.

What really looks disorienting to me is the light rifle zoom.
Now, I've only seen this 3 or 4 times from the trailer, but what the hell.

It looks like the scope blows up and you have to peer through a cloud of symmetrically arranged bright red and orange shrapnel.

There isn't even an animation. You're just in the scope in section. If you want to be technical, there's about 3 frames where the scope-in centers into the screen.

Auto weapons that use the Smart scope is only useful at close range.

I only have a problem with how it functions canonically. For the DMR and BR at least. It looks like the Spartan is holding the gun closer to their helmet and looking down the sight, which wouldn't make sense, hence the need for the smart scope. Yes, I know what the smart scope is and does, but from the view that you get with the DMR and BR it doesn't look like you're looking through a camera lens because you can see your peripherals. The AR on the other hand does look like you're viewing through a camera on top. Anyone get what I'm saying?

That's still an animation.  And I had the stream running in the background, but it looked like the sniper zoom-in actually sways that massive scope over your screen until the scope is positioned correctly.  Just looks like it could be awkward for quickscoping.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.

Yeah this is a big leap towards CoD. Announcer, movement, zoom-in...

What's next calling in helicopters and missile strikes?

I assume you're playing early access

Would you say it plays like Halo 4 or more like 2/3/arena feel? Basically, is it better than Halo 4 or what

Way, way, way better than Halo 4. It certainly has that arena feel, but with a much heavier emphasis on mobility.

Alright, that's great to hear. Knew it would have been better when learning Bravo became their community manager
