This could end up being one of the greatest Halo games ever. Never thought I'd say that about a 343 Halo after Halo 4!

When that grunt get's disintegrated in that hallway it seems that gun being used is just a human shotgun. But it looks like theres this orange glowing part on the end. Don't know if this has been pointed out yet. Seems to have a forerunner attachment.
Looks like a legendary weapon maybe.
It definitely is. We've seen that designed shotgun before but not the promethean aspect to it.

Could be the Scattershot, though the design seems different and the way it shoots seems a bit different.

I imagine that, despite being trained for countless hours to shoot center mass, many modern day soldiers are reminded to aim for center mass right before entering into combat. Or at least I feel like I've seen that in movies.

Coincidentally, my Clan Tag in The Master Chief Collection is also "Nooice" from Key and Peele

Can't wait to see how the relationship between Master Chief and has M8s evolves.
On a side note, I couldn't help by laugh when two (Kelly and Fred?) got downed by the last Hunter. They cleaned up the second one very well and then just ran up behind, hoping I assume, that Chief would continue to hold it's attention.
Didn't work out like that LOL

Still no footage of the Raid on Apex 7 map?

I really hope there's an option to keep the ground pound first person, it's my only real issue with this game's presentation, it just looks goofy to snap between third and first person for literally one second.
They don't want to spoil the story by showing every setting?

I had a feeling we might get a snippet of some Blue Team campaign gameplay today after they released some new screens yesterday. Everything looks and sounds great so far - it's so good to finally hear their voices!
Also does anybody know if there's going to be some kind of additional briefing about this, or is it just the b-roll footage today?

Wish it was footage of a larger scale mission but at least it's blue team this time around. Screw Locke!

I have been through the ringer with my favorite series in gaming since the MCC... er, well, Halo 4 actually.
But you know what? I've gone back, open minded, played another 10 hours of Halo 4 to add to the already existing 200+, and fuck it, I love it.
Halo 5 looks to have taken everything that 343 got right with Halo 4, brought back core elements, tuned up everything to a T and I think this has the potential to be one of the best Halo games.

I'm saving this post just in case I'm proven wrong and this goes horribly awry.

I hope this is the case. I really want Halo 5 to go well. I loved the beta, just hope it doesn't get mucked up somehow.

I love it so far. It looks really great for a closed interior level.
Very impressed.
Very impressed.
I felt like halo 4 was pretty great, despite halo 3 still being my favorite gameplay-wise and halo 2 to be my favorite from a story standpoint.
5 looks like it's taking all the best parts of every halo game and slamming them together in the best way possible. I'm more than excited for this! Warzone is literally the multiplayer gametype I've always wanted too, so I'm losing it.

I have been waiting to see what it looks like as well since it was teased. The map sounds very interesting.

I recall hearing that both the Scattershot and the human shotgun have a flashlight on the front now, That doesn't explain the grunt being vaporized though.

So show the most boring one?
Ha, that is the first thing that came to mind too.

I thought it showed even smaller areas are much larger scale than H4.
I don't know. This footage didn't wow me like I expected it would. The art style and textures looked rather plain. I found H4 to be more visually appealing, but hey, this is NeoGaf where differing opinions aren't allowed, so what do I know? I'll give credit where it's due though - the framerate was rock solid and that's nice to see. I suppose something had to be sacrificed for that to happen.

I wouldn't worry too much, they've shown screenshots that show a variety of terrain and styles. The game is still 3 months away, maybe they just want the reveal to be slow and sweet without giving away surprises. I'm pretty confident 5 will top Halo 4 in most every way now that they're a little more experienced with the franchise.

IM SO MAD A BUNGLE
To be fair, Halo 1, 2, 4 and now 5 ALL begin on a ship. Though I think there actually might be 1 Locke mission before this mission in Halo 5. So it may not hold true.
That, and/or it might be a prologue "mission" that's more of a cutscene than anything. Been kind of the trend since Halo 2.
Fuck that's smooth. Not even a particularly big Halo fan (because I'm shit at it) but I'm going to have to pick this up.
Only to get constantly out shot and run back to COD.
Yep. Gonna make it very hard to even imagine playing Halo at sub 60 after I pick this up.

I'm starting to feel excited for this despite not loving Clamber in the MP (which for me makes it feel more like a Halo inspired game).
Visually it's not bad, just not great imo. I was expecting a bit more. My biggest issue is how each level seems to have a muddy color filter (green hue, orange hue, brown, etc.) limiting the range of colors, especially with lights and skyboxes. Maybe this is more of a issue with the MP though.
Personally I would love to see a Halo game take a next gen approach to the art style of ODST with some Reach mixed in.
Legendary weapons just became even more interesting. Seems to be a UNSC shotgun with Forerunner augmentation. Interesting and hype.

Thing is it continues to glow and the grunt disintegrates.
