[QUOTE=d00msdaydan;49008618]So it's a Halo game[/QUOTE] Story is pretty shit to so far

Gameplay 9/10 Story 5/10 Graphics/Environments 9/10 Multiplayer Content 6/10 And I'm really fucking sick of Linda's shit. Always dying.

They've somehow managed to top Halo 4's story

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008679]They've somehow managed to top Halo 4's story[/QUOTE] The story isn't that bad in H5 its just you can clearly spot huge plot holes where content is clearly missing. Thats what makes it so bad.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008089]Why would you replay Halo 4 It's terrible[/QUOTE] Jesus Christ give it up. [editline]29th October 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008679]They've somehow managed to top Halo 4's story[/QUOTE] No, they didn't. The story wasn't shit, but it's clearly missing a level or two with a crucial plot point. Gotta love the Halo hate squad over reacting.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008779]It's honestly awful[/QUOTE] Why do you keep buying 343's Halos if you hate everything about them?

I think 343 wasn't given enough time to work on the campaign. They were clearly very ambitious, but I think multiplayer was given more attention.

Lol, and he's complaining about the part of the story that isn't fucked up from the clearly missing content. [sp]Did you seriously expect Cortana not to be in Halo 6? There won't be a Halo that includes Chief that won't have Cortana. There weren't even any holes in that subplot, and the endgame was a good setup for Halo 6.[/sp] But okay, your opinion is fact. I wonder how much better the campaign would be whatever was cut wasn't.

Hard to take people who say the story is "absolute garbage" or "God awful" seriously, because it's not [I]that[/I] bad.

[QUOTE=Skyward;49006174]Christ worse than 4? That's a feat.[/QUOTE] I never played through 4 but if it's any consolation the campaign itself is pretty great, which I hear isn't the case with 4 Its just the plot kind of sucks, mostly because nothing happens (from what I hear) and what does happen doesn't get resolved. It's basically one big setup for Halo 6 So far there are good moments and characters and such in the campaign but it just doesn't go where it needs to go by the end I hear I mean I'm not too bothered because honestly playing through Crysis 2 was fun despite the terrible set up and plot. But obviously it is a bit more disappointing coming from Halo which has this interesting universe that Halo 5 doesn't really fully realize in the way it should EDIT: for what its worth though a lot of people seem to really dig the story. Got a few people on fb/twitter who are halo fans but not really gamers in the sense that they don't pay attention to review outlets or anything like that and they loved the campaign

[QUOTE=ShadowSocks8;49008900]you just have to face facts that this campaign was honestly just bad[/QUOTE] No actually, I don't have to accept your opinion as fact. It's your opinion, not mine. I enjoyed the campaign, there were things I didn't like, I didn't like content was cut, but that something every AAA titles experience thanks to publisher and timelines to meet. But overall I enjoyed it. What you need to accept is not everyone feels that way. And coming in here just to shit up the thread isn't cool. Which is the only thing spartan does and something you frequently do. Haha you're fucking hilarious trying to tell me I need to face facts I don't agree with. Grow up.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008953]You're forgetting Delta was payed to play Halo 4[/QUOTE] What exactly does my former occupation have to do with this? Go away.

Also, I like the REQ system for warzone but it needs tuning for sure They really need to make it so basic vehicles types can be available at all times for that req level without requring burn cards. I.E. I should be able to get a an actual tank any game without burning through a card They need to make burn cards only apply to specality weapons or items, or varients. I.E. ONI warthog or Spartan Laser Have it so there is at least one basic "rocket launcher", a basic "tank", basic "scout land unit" available at all times without burning a card would really help with balance and help make it so it doesn't feel like you are getting fucked for trying to take out a boss with a launcher later on only to get spawn killed. Kind of like how in Planetside 2, right from the start you have access to every type of basic vehicle and weaponry no matter what, but the ones you can cert into are specialized variants or doing alternate roles. Its really stupid how in Halo 5 they lock -essential- weapon types behind burn cards. It would be so much more fun if they just kept skins, special weapons, etc behind the packs. It isn't like those aren't any less exciting to unlock. I mean look at CSGO, they have packs that literally are only skins and the skin economy is massive in that game.

[QUOTE=Delta616;49008959]What exactly does my former occupation have to do with this? Go away.[/QUOTE] If you're payed to play something you're more likely to join it

That must mean I think Halo 5 is the best thing ever then.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008981]If you're payed to play something you're more likely to join it[/QUOTE] The reason I stopped QA is because I started to hate the thing I love, you don't know what you're talking about stop pretending you do.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49008981]If you're payed to play something you're more likely to join it[/QUOTE] Where the fuck are you even pulling this so called fact from?

[QUOTE=optimussentinel;49009018]Where the fuck are you even pulling this so called fact from?[/QUOTE] When did I say fact? I said more likely

I got a SMG with a bayonet. Not sure how that exactly works but ok 343.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49009033]When did I say fact? I said more likely[/QUOTE] Still, where the fuck are you getting this from?

[QUOTE=optimussentinel;49009042]Still, where the fuck are you getting this from?[/QUOTE] I'm gonna let you figure this one out :v:

[QUOTE=Delta616;49009106]What are you doing man?[/QUOTE] I may or may not have had enough sleep and I'm not liking Halo 5's story my bad

[QUOTE=Delta616;49008949]Haha you're fucking hilarious trying to tell me I need to face facts I don't agree with.[/QUOTE] you can't make this stuff up, this sounds like something a republican would say about global warming you can have your opinion and that's fine, but you're jumping all over the place you said it yourself, [B]the campaign is missing missions with major plot points,[/B] how is that not a complete failure on 343s part? please explain this to me.
