It's not the scopeWhy is no one making the point that this is a battle rifle. It traditionally has a scope, but in this instance it has a red dot instead, possibly different variants depending on map size where a lower zoom or more open sights would be advantageous, or perhaps they made the BR with a red dot this time and it will serve a different purpose than the precision rifle. Sprint was in Halo 4, so I'm not so surprised.
People are over blowing this like crazy. We get a beta a year in advance to give the feedback. If it doesn't feel right when you actually get to play it, then complain then. We know so little about the multiplayer even with this clip.
The most vocal Halo fans just want Halo 2 rereleased every three years with updated graphics. That said, I've never been a huge fan of ADS myself, though I'm okay with sprint. At the end of the day though, there's a hell of a lot more than those two features separating Halo and CoD, so when people talking about them "completely ruining Halo" and turning it into a "CoD clone" it's a bit ridiculous.
100% in fact i prefer melee to the other games by far, but i don't expect the new game to play like melee. Like it or not smash community is the minority, nintendo is trying to sell the game to people outside of the community as well
You don't fuck with chess because monopoly came out. nah now you buy squares and have to maintain an economy.
I was going to buy the One for MCC and H5... not anymore!
Thanks for killing Halo 343i.
Not cosmetic man, you can see its ads straight from cod.
It makes my head hurt, they can't throw this at us, pls no
Nobody's sentencing 343 to death. It's just... this is incredibly discouraging, and people are upset. It's basically been the worst nightmare of the Halo fandom coming to life, something everybody joked about but nobody thought they'd actually do. People are going to be upset. Maybe it turns out to be nothing, and that'd be great, but until then...
Stinkles says a lot of things.
I'd rather have ADS than the zoom used in other Halo games - ADS doesn't automatically make it less Halo.
Yeah it's not like he's the Franchise Development Director and probably doesn't know shit.
Huh? When was that announced?
Like the beta details to help sell more copies of MCC?
Lol. The HALO REACHing in this thread might be entering Elite status. We have been sprinting since Bungie introduced it into the series FOUR years ago. It's fun watching Frankie and the 343i crew still getting that scapegoat hyperbolic hate since H4. Gonna play the bejeezus out of MCC & the H5 beta.
I welcome the change. Halo was my primary online shooter up until I bought a PS4 this past February. Yeah I even stuck with Halo 4 up until then. Halo 5 is a new game on new hardware and as such one should expect changes. As usual the game community zeitgeist is blowing this way out of proportion. Give it a shot before you shit on it.
I would argue that ADS works fine with Destiny which plays like a faster paced Halo.
there is nothing dated about Halo 2 except for its graphics. It's mechanics are timeless.

Im a huge huge fan of Halo. I have been playing Halo 2 since the day it came out and continued on PC. I'm scared too but they will let us play the game a year before release so they can make dramatic changes.
I think the only way it might work is if they make hip-fire viable as in Destiny. Otherwise...eh..
What made more more sad is that, while MC is still playable, Locke really is the primary character. Goddamnit.

Killzone killer?
I find the idea that e-sports = ADS hilarious.
I guess FPS e-sports means COD nowadays?
No need Killzone is dead already
You mean Halo 5 doesn't play like Halo 1-3!?!?
Im out!?!?
change is good.
I'd say just temper expectations, hard to be disappointed when you don't expect much to begin with.

I'd like to see what a Halo fan's idea is for Halo 5. Like what is your wishlist? The game is dated. It has dated gameplay. Why would I want to play H2 with slicker graphics? (other than MCC)
Maybe there are things I'm not thinking of but I'd like to see one of the people who hate ADS and sprint tell me what WOULD make the game less ... 2004.
As a Halo fan, the MCC will be my main game throughout the generation and I will be playing the Beta when it drops as much as humanly possible to see if I like where they're going BUT Sprint was bad when Bungie did it and it's bad now too.
Explain to me what is dated about its gameplay? Why are people so excited to play MCC and why has it gotten such glowing reviews if it is "dated gameplay"? All gameplay that isn't CoD clone isn't necessarily "dated".
Why wait?CAN WE PLEASE WAITING UNTIL TOMORROW BEFORE WE SEND 343 DEVS TO THEIR EXECUTION?
He also reiterated that all the negative reaction might change things, Microsoft's playing it very safe and there's still 'plenty of time'.

I feel like I've walked into an alternate dimension in which Counter Strike was never created
Not sure what's inherently "2004" about an arena shooter with a high skill gap. Also not sure that "borrowing" ideas from mainstream military shooters necessarily brings the game forward to 2014.
What would be so wrong with keeping the core combat loop from classic Halo games intact and innovating in other areas instead?

As I explained in a previous post, the visual concept of ADS is often associated with the gameplay elements of reduced hip fire accuracy and limited movement when scoped. Nothing I know indicates the latter.Why?
Why wait?
