Game Informer July cover story: Halo 5 [Up: Character Shots]

I like the way buck looks, but not a fan of the way Locke looks...maybe because I used to seeing how he really looks in live action from Nightfall, and his beard in the picture just looks really fake.

Anyways, I love how the music in the video is sounding, and hope we get some BTB preview at E3.

I'm all the way in. That Halo 5 beta was so good. Day 1. I'm still waiting to pick up the MCC, but I have to before 5 comes out. I gotta get back up to par.
 
Now here's a game finally that makes me want to buy and Xbox 1. Looks and sounds fantastic. Can't wait for more gameplay at E3. And I hope vehicles are still in for multuplayer. They have to be right?

Nice. Will keep up with the tibits on GI.

Character models are OK. I expected more but I am not sure those shots are final. I expect more tho...(I mean the faces).

It would be neat if you could collaborate in Forge on dedicated servers.

Like Minecraft where everyone builds a community map? Could be interesting if the tools are solid. Babies First Map Maker worked in the early games but we need something a little more advanced now.

Yeah, definitely. Needs more than a upgrade, a rethink.

Bloody hell, this looks awesome! I just hope 343 will actually explain the story ingame this time, and not only through the terminals. They HAVE to explain the characters to non-book readers.
 
Don't know man, just can't trust 343 after Halo 4. The shit with Chief being hunted and a traitor sounds so bad. That said i will buy the game but i think i probably won't like this new Halo that 343 is creating

You kidding me. Start listening to huntthetruth this instant dude. Get caught up!

huntthetruth.com It's incredible!

There has never been a main halo game that didn't have a vehicle in it's MP. So I think your're good.

Good deal, hyped for Buck.

All of MC's mates coming back is interesting, hopefully their scenes are well done.

GI screens aren't really impressive but the closing paragraph does sound like a big Battlefield style mode. Can't wait for e3


Edit: all maps free? Hallelujah

Map DLC being free is huge. DLC maps splitting up the player base has been a problem since Halo 2, and got worse with 3 / Reach / 4.

Ive been gaming for well over 30 years and Halo is one of the last remaining gaming franchises that I still get excited for. With Blue team front and center (finally!) this is looking like a dream come true for the series.

Having 20 maps and an additional 15 last is really good news. H5 would seem light if they stuck with the regular 15 in comparison to the massive variety of the Master Chief Collection. Nixing the paid DLC is great because map packs simply never showing up in matchmaking has always been a problem of this series.

Bring on 5.
 
Looks like the Flagnum returns. I think it's for the best seeing as players have more mobility options AND unlimited sprint. I just hope we can drop the flag.

Map DLC being free is huge. Like really huge. Wonder what's inside those 250$ boxes now.

What is consider canon: Fall of Reach (book) or Halo Reach (game)?

Everything (besides Halo Legends Spartan 1337) that is officially Halo related is probably canon.
