I haven't seen this posted yet, interested to know how people feel about these changes. Keep in mind the game is a year away from release. [video=youtube;TX-jzL2bLKE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TX-jzL2bLKE[/video] [video=youtube; 8NVtOhoHe4A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NVtOhoHe4A[/video] I never played Halo 4 but understand the kill streak like ordnance drops ruined the idea of map control so its good to know that is gone. I figure a lot of people will not like what they see but to be fair they can't keep remaking the Halo 2 style of gameplay. I find the esports focus interesting with the idea of characters calling out and the round/life based game mode they are introducing. The announcer is a bit over the top!
First video is Advanced Warfare lmao
Man both of these was painful to watch.
looks really cool i really like those bleeps as hitsounds too beep boop
Halo: Advanced Warfare? Looks shite if you ask me
That ground pound is exactly like that jetpack slam thing from 40k Space Marine
[QUOTE] "Halo 5 will debut with new features, like kill-streaks and mid air dashing!"[/QUOTE] I said that as a joke earlier.
Ironsights is an interesting feature to me. As long as its for the Battle Rifle and the Pistol, I wouldn't worry much about it breaking the flow of Halo.

It looks alright to me, not a big fan of the charge and ground pound but side dodging and clambering seem like a decent addition. I'm kind of glad they added sprinting as well, whenever I played Halo 2/3 with friends we would always up the movement speed because the default is a snail's pace.
343 are just clueless on how to make a halo game
The iron sighs look like they behave like 2013 Shadow Warrior. No movement penalty, and no hipfire penalty. It just slows your aim. It works like the "sniper" button on those super 1337 g8mer mouses. If this was a PC title, you wouldn't even need it. I'm ok with all of these changes to be honest. If this was the game they revealed when people were waiting for Halo 3, no one would have batted an eye.
I called this when halo 4 came out. Halo and call of duty are gradually turning into each other. I think the ones to come out after this/advanced warfare will be so similar that they'll give up and combine the franchise.

720p
Iron sights? No thank you Been dead since 4 Edit: What's wrong with the energy sword WHAT HAVE THEY DONE
I really don't like the new looks of the spartans, I loved the bulky spartans plated as fuck with armor
720p60? At least the first video is most definitely not 60fps. Why bother rendering it like it was? Second video on the other hand is very clearly 1080p60.
How on earth did they manage to make the Halo announcer sound so.. [B]CAMP[/B]. It was literally perfect, why did they even think about changing it.
Unfortunately it will not come to PC or Xbox 360, and no, I wouldn't spend >100$ just for 1 game
The announcer sounds like a very bad tryhard imitation of the original

The energy sword looks awful and I'm really hoping that the announcer won't actually sound like that on release. Also why are the spartans talking?
They added iron sights to every weapon. It literally is no longer an arena shooter. One of the core, THE CORE MECHANIC that defines an arena shooter, they homogenized.
This is depressing...
Looks much, much better than Halo 4. The gameplay still has a halo feel even with the new additions. That energy sword is absolute shit, the announcer is terrible, but otherwise it looks pretty fun.
How to make a good Halo game #1: Less is more.
Someone dub this over with "the sound of silence" please so I can watch it and be more depressed.
i like how the smg made a return. thats about it, the announcer needs to go refill his xanex prescription
