"Get him!" Ads, the topic of the next several pages?
I'm fine with how halo 5 handles it --- which is quite different then virtually every other game.
I like the look/feel of ads, but I also like to have accurate hip fire and movement to not be restricted when scoped.

Haha... I'm not the most popular person 'round these parts.
Yeah it's not traditional ADS for sure. It looks great in action, and if people still want to hip fire, that is obviously an option. Caters to both crowds.

Pretty much this. More games should do it the way Halo 5 has introduced. I'd be pissed if Halo 5 was like Destiny, inaccurate hip fire would straight up kill the flow of the game.
Not sure if sarcastic or not? Lol.
Either way... ADS is fantastic. From a FPS perspective, it just makes sense to have in a game released in 2015.
Edit: ah. Not sarcastic haha.
I.....I can't.

Except if ADS grants any sort of bonus or additional benefit. It should be a matter of visual preference. Equality and all that.

Haven't they said that it doesn't matter either way? Ads and hip fire have the same amount of accuracy, it's just a matter of preference, and following fps trends, etc.

I don't mind ADS on weapons that don't traditionally have a zoom (Needler, Plasma Pistol, etc.) but I'd prefer traditional scopes on precision weapons.
Although they said they will change it, automatic weapons had better accuracy while in ads. I think there still will be a difference at release, but to a lesser extent.
Not better accuracy, it was better precision. The automatics had less spread as you held the fire trigger longer. They had the same accuracy in and out of ADS IIRC.

Except I've been a Halo fan since Halo CE when I first was introduced to it in 2003. I've been along for the ride, through every title and I've enjoyed all of them for the most part...some more than others...but all in all, I just enjoy halo. *shrugs*

2 quick notes:
- wesley is the new worst
- Halo 3 BR's should have been dual wieldable
Simmer down there Halo 3 Kid.

The big issue I have with the ADS in H5, it wasn't needed. Seems like 343i was like, "hmm what can we add for no reason?" Let's add some ADS! I don't believe the, it makes the game more accessible argument. CSGO didn't have to add ADS (well it's on the AUG and SG, but those guns suck so whatever). Yet, CSGO is the most popular and most played CS ever.
It's here to stay now, so there's really no sense in complaining about it and it's also not traditional ADS. However, I just found its addition to be needless.

Except they don't cause automatic weapons have tighter spread, sword has better lunge, etc. I don't think ADS is some apocalyptic shit, but let's not pretend it's purely cosmetic. It is not.

ADS is not needed and the fact they tried writing it off as "weapons were designed with it mind" is bullshit. I don't need to zoom in UT to activate a Mouse 2 function, I shouldn't need to ADS to activate a secondary function on a weapon in Halo 5. It forces players to use a mechanic that is only in the game to grab "modern gamers"

Calling someone a "kid" wow... im probably just as old as you. Or older who knows.
You should simmer down there CE "kid"...
It was a joke. "Halo 3 kid" as in someone who was rooted in Halo 3.
who are you again?

Uhm i started with halo 1 and i like H1 MP too a bit. Halo 2 was great at its time, but Halo 3 is my golden Home.
And im still in the same boat as you guys who love and prefer the old trilogy games over the 343 stuff so far.

You can get your kidneys replaced with Mark V figurines and "old" "halogaf" still isn't going to accept your ideals.

2 quick notes:
- I called you a Kid, quite different from a "kid"
- In terms of gameplay, Halo 2 and Halo 3 did more harm than good to this franchise, in my opinion at least.
And I prefer the Halo 5 Beta to a majority of the trilogy.

Let's be fair for a second here. While ADS is bad. Sprint did way more damage to Halo.

Having a differing opinion is bad?
Oh man, I should reread that Karen Traviss trilogy.
I just love how they character assassinate Halsey.
last book wasn't totally amazing, and I'd rather just read all the new stuff this year

ADS is quite literally the ONLY issue I have with Halo 5. I very much enjoyed the beta but could never shake the thought in my mind that it was a completely unnecessary change.

- Dual wielding unnecessarily watered down the weapon sandbox
- Extremely generous aim assist made shootouts stale and less skillful, especially if you weren't host
- Long kill times
- Necessity to teamshoot
- Overpowered motion tracker
- Armor Abilities off spawn
- The Halo 3 BR.
- Halo 3 in general
- The list goes on..
It is KNOWN that if you take things too seriously around here you make it less FUN.

This. I can only tolerate sprint in Halo if it were just an AA. But even AAs itself posed a greater threat to the core. Like Armor Lock. I don't mind Armor Lock were it a one time use like saving yourself from being wrecked by a vehicle.

I recently reread it. The last book is serviceable. But I do need to get Hunters in the dark.
No. Bad opinions are bad.
Unnecessary? Would somebody please think of the review scores!
