Hey all, I made a quick mock-up of my ideal Halo 5 control scheme. If you like it, please RT it. I really want to push for this.

Looks like a more modern take on the classic Halo multiplayer, I can't wait for the Beta.

As someone new to Halo this looks fucking amazing but I can also understand how the Halo faithful could be pissed off by the new direction.
Bring on the beta!!!

Awesome finish!I recorded the vast majority of the full MP match from the Halo Fest Twitch stream, and even left in a minute or two of the salty chat

Wow! I just watched the Vidoc and the beta footage and I am really excited for it. I think they have done just enough to make it feel new but also keeping it halo. The thrusters is the only thing that I am a bit worried about, might be too quick, but the 60fps makes it look quicker too. Not regenerating health when sprinting is a good idea and the "ADS" isn't really anything new, just cosmetically different.

Hopefully just a beta fill in . That double keelll is annoying, but i suck so much i wont be hearing it too much.

Wow, surely that can't be for real? It's super exaggerated and needs to go. Gameplay looks ridiculously fun, though.

Eh, I actually like it.
It's got a more sarcastic, cocky tone to it, especially "Cluster Luck." I hope they keep it.

Yeah, I honestly like the new take on it.
Sounds like a 9 year old giving his little brother shit.

I'm pretty hyped for Halo 5 after seeing that footage. Making all the 'abilities' usable for everyone and making everyone start with the same weapons (no loadouts) is a welcome change as that was one of my biggest problems with Reach and 4. Its also cool they balanced sprint by making shields not recharge when using it. Its also kind of annoying seeing so many people complain about ADS when its not really affecting the gameplay at all outside of being a cosmetic change.

Imagine if halo had killstreaks. 10 kills streak - Scarab drops onto the map. GAF Would have a meltdown.
I am glad they are pairing back some of the things that didnt work in 4 (orbital drops), but still having that fast paced movement. That running animation reminds me of titanfall.
Good to see map control is still important.

25 kills- Activate the nearest Halo ring
3 weeks. 7 maps. 3 game modes. we'll have plenty of time and depth with the game SOON =)

I know it's a joke and all, but a Battlefield sized Halo would be interesting to see.
In terms of Guardians it looks cool, and 343 is doing something different with the series which is cool. Doing the same thing as Halo 2 or 3 doesn't sound like the most satisfying thing ever, so them taking it in a new direction is great, especially now that every fanbase can play Halo the way they want with MCC.
holly fucking shit!!
this looks bonkers!!!
H5 along with MCC, I expect many HALO overloads

So 'Spartan Abilities' equals exo-suit...?

How so?
I saw double jump.
I saw side-dash.
I saw sprint.
Aren't these the things you do in your exo-suit?
A fair comparison, and CoD: AW is the first title to bring all of those together as standard movement options for all players at once, but you have to consider:
A) Halo 5 does not actually have double jumping
B) Thruster pack in all directions and sprint have existed in some capacity in previous Halo games
It's unfortunately timed, but not an egregious copy of AW

From that B-roll footage it looks like almost everyone is using ADS, and it's providing an advantage. Hard to tell for now though.
I was worried most about time to kill shield/health etc. but that aspect definitely looks better than what Halo 4 had.

Looking good. Proof is in the pudding, of course, but that's what the beta is for.

That was really awesome. Also glad they want to hear about any issues people have with the game and stuff. Bungie should take note.
