Maybe he's why they cut splitscreen coop so friends won't murder each other over who gets to play as him.
Oh god it's like when they used that one Breaking Benjamin song in Halo 2.

Then they could just kill him in game.
Well shit anyone remember this newgrounds gem? [url]https://youtu.be/ZbQAYGgkj_I?t=184[/url]
Looks like its finally half canon haha.
That pre-order armor set is really ugly.
I can't wait to be only interested in half of the campaign
[QUOTE=Oblivion Knight;48885506]Oh god it's like when they used that one Breaking Benjamin song in Halo 2.[/QUOTE]
At least it kind of matched the theme of Halo 2. This, not at all.
I couldn't believe when that song started playing
Jesus christ that was complete dogshit.
I barely managed to beat Halo 4 because of how boring it was. The last real Halo game was Reach in my opinion.
[QUOTE=Saxon;48885780]At least it kind of matched the theme of Halo 2. This, not at all.[/QUOTE]
Most likely because, well, it was 2004 and that sort of shit was cool. This just looks tacky in comparison.
Eugh. This isn't halo at all.
ok then, please explain how doing forward flips down a snowy hill like ssx tricky with a music choice like it was made for a fan trailer reminds you of halo.
I like it
"I can't wait fight more Prometheans", said no one ever.
[QUOTE=ThePanther;48886286]"I can't wait fight more Prometheans", said no one ever.[/QUOTE]
i'm optimistic that they'll actually make them fun this time.
They added new Promethean Enemy type that seems to be in between the Knight and the Crawlers
...I feel like they're pushing to try and make this an MMO.
There's just too much fantasy looking bullshit to not say this. The Prometheans in general, eugah.
So like, what is Master Chief doing? Why has he "gone rogue"?
Pretty sure he's trying to find a way to resurrect Cortana.
i still don't fully understand why they're dragging out the master chief saga.... there's so much more lore with the books that the games haven't even touched on
[QUOTE=slayer20;48886772]So like, what is Master Chief doing? Why has he "gone rogue"?[/QUOTE]
That's point of the game. To find out what he is doing.
[QUOTE=slayer20;48886772]So like, what is Master Chief doing? Why has he "gone rogue"?[/QUOTE]
To stop the Guardians
Not playing as the Chief makes this just feel wrong. The entire trailer sidelined him and made it clear that he is not the focus, where it is very clear that he is the hero of the title. I mean, the reveal trailer was all about the Chief: traveling to distant planets in search of these Guardians and trying to figure out some new threat, or find out something about Cortana's death etc.
Now it seems like the player might switch to him every other mission and get saddled with another human who gets little sympathy from me.
Halo 2 was definitely an oddball by splitting the story between the Chief and Arby, but it had the wow factor of showing the Covenant side, and it also gave the backdrop to the most interesting conflict: the civil war.
This is just another Spartan-IV...made ONI to give him some interesting backstory.
I'd rather just play through the entire game as Nathan Fillion, if not the Chief. At least he's funny.
Why does Facepunch have a huge raging hate-boner for Halo now? Does everyone have rose tinted glasses on or something?

Its mainly that 343i's halo did A LOT of things wrong in comparison to bungie's halo.
Namely they butchered the art style, took the storyline in a direction a lot of people don't really like at all, and turned the game's MP into something... else.
I don't know about everyone else, but MY hate boner stems from the fact that they turned the armor into gundam anime armor, and completely removed most of the really fun MP stuff that Reach had.

I wish they had picked some different music for this honestly; but I'm interested to see how the Master Chief story plays out especially with blue team. I'm not sure how soon I want to get an xbox one though.

There's maybe one or two armor sets that remotely look like a Gundam.

halo 4 was literally the only problem, and even 343 are straying far from that game overall.
MP looks way better than reach's which died as quickly as it started, and the armor complaint is so hilariously invalid im not even gonna dignify it with a rebuttal
hows about people stop bitching about Halo 4 in Halo 5 threads and come up with some genuine criticism, because there definitely is flaws in 5's image but everyone seems to dodge that in order to go 'lol it looks like an anime god i wish this game was just like halo 1!!!'
[QUOTE=Makol;48887300]There's maybe one or two armor sets that remotely look like a Gundam.[/QUOTE]
I meant that in a more joking way, in general the armor looks greebled to hell and back without actually covering much of the spartan, to me they look like a mess design wise.
Comparisons:

If you take away the colors, the armor all looks exactly the same because its just a mess of greeble with no clear design philosphy other than "MAKE IT LOOK FUTURISTIC"
Looks like something you could find in elysium or some other modern sci-fi movie, it doesn't look halo to me.

Bitching about the art style is completely valid though, I don't see how it isnt.
Reach's MP didn't die as quickly as you seem to think either, considering how many hours I had poured into that game having fun with all of the community uploaded maps on forgeworld alone, and the playlists always seemed full enough for me to find matches instantly.
