Halo 5 Guardians

Post by Κracus »

It's the tits.

The way they integrated the jump jets into the game really makes it a fast paced shooter. It's still halo but where you used to just kinda float through the air when you jumped you now have a host of options to use while in the air to create a really fast paced shooter. Map control seems to be way better in this game too and the way they handled obtaining vehicles and weapons is fucking awesome, no more fighting over who gets a ghost or tank plus the new Warzone mode is really good.

Get over yourselves. Halo was epic, and the MP was fun for a few months.

Fuck them for removing splitscreen.
Also Halo4 was boring as fuck, I have no intention on getting 5.

I'll stick to Titanfall for my jetpack shenanigans fill.

The lack of splitscreen is unfortunate. The campaign is fun but not why I bought it. The multiplayer is amazing but doesn't have a lot of maps yet. I wasn't a huge fan of 4.

Not sure, there's forge but yeah, I suspect there will be some map dlc at some point. Although there aren't a lot of maps for it, there's a lot of modes and some maps are for specific modes which makes it look like there's not a lot of maps but there kinda is.

The maps themselves though are really fun, I've been digging into the FFA Deathmatch games and I'm really starting to get that Quake 3 Arena feeling back when all I played was Q3Tourney2 and Tourney4. I played the shit out of Q3 but when it comes to maps I only played a handful that I really liked, same thing here.

Movement though is the biggest change in this halo that I like. It still has the floaty jump but there's just so much more you can do mid air that it takes away that bouncy feeling to it and makes it a fast paced shooter that sometimes takes place in the air.

The ground pound is amazing, nothing more satisfying than being on an upper floor and watching 2 or 3 players below you fighting and killing 2 of them by jumping down on top of them, it's really cool.

You can also boost (jump jets) in the air to propel you in a specific direction and extend jumps, combined with the ability to clamber on ledges you just missed really lets you parkour most of the maps.

Welp... I've been playing a while now and getting substantially better and it's a great shooter. I'm really liking it.

I'm starting to get matched up against players who are extremely good. I like re-watching videos of games where I get beat and pro gamers to see what they do. I was watching the video below when I spotted myself in the video :olo:

I dunno, I watch a lot of gaming videos on youtube and don't spot myself in those videos too often. I guess for someone like yourself browsing donkey dicks the odds of seeing yourself must be pretty high since it's a kind of niche viewership.

Forge is being released tomorrow, so as with previous iterations I'll be creating Q3DM6 in it's full glory to be played in Halo 5. If anyone wants to give it a go...
