I REALLY hope this isn't COD with a Halo skin. The leaked vids and then this preview don't instill me with much confidence.

They better release that H5 MP reveal quick.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

This guy shouldn't be anywhere near Halo, he is tired of shooters

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

So, yeah, that preview was horrible. If you're gonna break an embargo, at least have a decent writeup. :lol

Those screens don't look all that great visually (Spartan Models and visors specifically), though I really like the concept and art style of that map.

 

[Unstable]

Well, at least we have MCC guys.

 

[B.O.O.M]

why don't they add killstreaks while they at it?

To redeem themselves



Anywho might be a better idea to wait for more previews/footage to properly judge at this point. Not a long wait anyways

 

[RoKKeR]

Somebody forgot the difference between AM and PM.

 

[Computer]

Why are Halo reviews done by people that have no clue what Halo is?

 

[Riozaki]

Wow you must be blind. Because its quite clear that isn't CGi.

I think he is trying to say the graphics look so good

 

[Raist]

Wait. This isn't CGI? No way this is ingame.

It really doesn't look all that impressive.
If it's CGI is the crappiest and jaggiest CGI in history.
It's oversampled as fuck.

 

[Lovely Salsa]

Yeah mirrors my impression... Doesnt look such a leap from Halo 4...

Maybe it'll look better in motion...and the gameplay impressions making it seem similar to COD doesnt make me happy either. Have to wait till I get my hands on...or a good video to judge it more easily..

its because its 60 fps and 1080p(?) ...and on xbox one

I'd be surprised if it looked much better than Halo 4

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

Well, sounds like i do not need a x1 cheers 343i..

 

[tbm24]

I REALLY hope this isn't COD with a Halo skin. The leaked vids and then this preview don't instill me with much confidence.

Not sure what you saw in those leaked vids that looks anything like COD.

 

[link1201]

a new boost ability adding to the player’s options for escape in a difficult situation.

I can't say I am a fan of this. I would prefer you pay for putting yourself in a bad position.

 

[Computer]

The map looks like its a paint ball game.

 

[danwarb]

I like the clean look of that map, and those reflections.

This preview is weird. Game seems less like CoD.

 

[E92 M3]

.

I do not like how sterile it looks, but hopefully that's just one map. I've never been a fan of the virtual reality look.

 

[kittens]

That preview does a terrible job of explaining how the mechanics even work. Doesn't talk about sprint being rebalanced, doesn't talk about the ground pound, doesn't say how often the thruster pack can be used, etc.

This guy shouldn't be anywhere near Halo, he is tired of shooters

Massive time sink? He docked points for too much content? Holy shit.

 

[Crossing Eden]

Character models look great, and the year is still a year away.

 

[Poodlestrike]

SMH at all the people going "welp, that's it for Halo 5." Dude can't tell the difference between the thruster pack and a jet pack. The article reads like it was machine translated! Maybe wait at least until the actual reveal tonight

 

[NH Apache]

Somebody forgot the difference between AM and PM.

This. I wonder what the fine will be.

 

[Raide]

Hopefully those images mean we get colouring options for Forge.

 

[egg mcmuffin with lettuce]

Beautifully written article.

 

[Nokterian]

Halo Advanced Warfare because 343 says fuck you to fans!

 

[TRD Mr Blonde]

That maps looks pretty cool.

 

[Azlan]

I am optimistic. Looking forward to trying out the Beta myself in December. That said I am happy to hear there is unlimited sprint and won't knock the ADS until I try it myself. They have to make some changes, otherwise all you have is a prettier version of Halo (again).

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

I should start a website right now if I can write like that and get review copies

 

[RoKKeR]

This is a very poorly written article, I wonder why...

This guy shouldn't be anywhere near Halo, he is tired of shooters

...oh. That's why.

 

[E92 M3]

I love that guy's review - we had a good laugh making poems in the review thread.

Btw, I am so tired of posting on GAF; sucks there aren't more topics though.

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

This will be interesting.

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Considering how badly things are written and described, I am waiting for the official reveal gameplay later on.

 

[Vire]

Call of Duty referenced twice in the span of three paragraphs.

Great.

 

[Sydle]

It's not well written and it doesn't explain anything. I guess they're just going for clicks by releasing something/anything first.

I'll wait to see it tonight before thinking any more on it.

EDIT: Annnnddddd it's gone.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Preview is so bad I think GamerGate might be right

 

[sam777]

Massive time sink? He docked points for too much content? Holy shit.

While at the same time docked points for no Reach or ODST lol

 

[Ghazi]

Taken down

 

[Marvel]

Call of Duty referenced twice in the span of three paragraphs.

Great.

lol, yeah.

 

[Twin Tails]

Well, sounds like i do not need a x1 cheers 343i..

yeah it's not like the game could change with a public testing or anything. rip halo 5

 

[plasmawave]

Wait. This isn't CGI? No way this is ingame.

Why? It doesn't look that impressive.

 

[DATABASE DATABASE]

Well that's not a very helpful preview. I can't believe he broke embargo for that.

On the bright side, I like the look of that map. I hope it plays well.

 

[chugen]

That preview does a terrible job of explaining how the mechanics even work. Doesn't talk about sprint being rebalanced, doesn't talk about the ground pound, doesn't say how often the thruster pack can be used, etc.


Massive time sink? He docked points for too much content? Holy shit.

too much content and not enough because no reach and odst

 

[VeeP]

I can't say I am a fan of this. I would prefer you pay for putting yourself in a bad position.

Imagine thrust and evade from previous Halo games. I welcome it. It's a new form of mobility that should make fire fights more interesting if used properly.

 

[Pop]

I'll wait to judge fully when I see the reveal tonight. But right now, I'm not liking it.

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Some very nice new screen shots, but a poorly written article.

 

[RoKKeR]

Well at least it looks nice.

Although I hate that the dumb blue visors are back.

 

[Papercuts]

Massive time sink? He docked points for too much content? Holy shit.

While docking for no Reach/ODST.

The logic.

 

[Poodlestrike]

yeah it's not like the game could change with a public testing or anything. rip halo 5

Yeah. With such an incredibly in-depth, knowledgeable, and clearly expressed preview, I guess we're done. Shut it all down, people.

 

[jem0208]

Well, sounds like i do not need a x1 cheers 343i..

You're basing your opinions off of quite possibly the worst written game preview I have ever read?


We have less than 12 hours till we see actual gameplay, give it a bit...

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

I like the map. Flat surfaces good. Less stuff to get stuck on.

 

[Computer]

I would not take anything this incoherent review says seriously. He called the Energy Sword a Beam Sword. Also dose not know what Midship is.
