I HONESTLY THOUGHT I WAS ALONE IN NOT REALLY LIKING THE PARTY CHAT SYSTEM. ESPECIALLY IN RANKED GAMES.


EVERYONE SEEMS TO THINK IT'S THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD SINCE THEY KEEP IMPLEMENTING IT IN ALL GAMES ALL THE DAMN TIME.


PERSONALLY, I THINK IT'S RUINING ONLINE GAMING.

I'm not trying to hear random people at all times in online gaming tbh. It really is the next best thing to sliced bread since I can talk to my friends whilst playing different games. If I'm playing H3 Ranked I go to game chat during the game but most people don't even use a mic anyway regardless of party chat.

THEN YOU SHOULD BE RIGHT AT HOME IN COD, WHERE WINNING OR LOSING DON'T MATTER AT ALL. JUST A BUNCH OF PEOPLE PARTY CHATTING WITH THEIR FRIENDS ABOUT THEIR SISTER'S UNCLE'S COUSIN IS SO FINE

PARTY CHAT DOESN'T BELONG IN HALO RANKED GAMES. PERIOD.

You wanna talk to your friends? CALL THEM.

IF YOU COULD ONLY CHOOSE 1 THING THAT THEY IMPLEMENT IN HALO 5 IN ORDER FOR YOU TO BUY IT OR BE INTERESTED IN HALO AGAIN, WHAT WOULD THAT BE?


IF I HAD TO CHOOSE 1 IT WOULD BE:


WIN/LOSE IN GAME RANKING WITH SKILL BASED MATCHMAKING!!!



IF THEY HAD THIS AND STILL KEPT THE ARMOR ABILITIES AND LOADOUTS, I WOULDN'T BUY IT BUT I WOULD BE INTERESTED AND PROBABLY RENT IT.


IF THEY DON'T AT LEAST HAVE THIS, THEN IT'S BYE BYE HALO FOR ME. PASS ON HALO 5 AND NO LOOK PASS ON HALO 6.

If I could only choose 1 (which still wouldn't be enough) it would be no more load outs. Something so simple changes the whole game

This is bad too, but at least they can make it so when you're in a certain playlist you only can choose from one loadout. That remedies that problem.

SORRY FOR THE RANT. BUT I'M JUST SITTING HERE AT WORK BORED AND HALO POPPED INTO MY HEAD AND HOW MUCH TIME I USED TO WASTE TRYING TO GET THAT 50 RANK. THEN I REMEMBERED HOW HAPPY I WAS WHEN IT WAS FINALLY ACHIEVED. NO CHEATING AND NO BOOSTING.

TITANFALL IS A LOT OF FUN AND I THINK IT'S THE BEST GAME ON ANY NEXT GEN CONSOLE AND SHOULD BE FOR A WHILE BUT I JUST WANT THE COMPETITIVE COMMUNITY OF HALO BACK.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO DESTINY AND I HAVE HIGH HOPES FOR IT AS THAT'S WHERE IT SEEMS THE COMPETITIVE COMMUNITY FROM THE HALO 2 AND 3 DAYS ARE LEANING TOWARDS.

Reach is the first halo game I only played for the single player. The multi player is so bad I think I tried for a week and just literally threw it away.

Isn't the fact that people still play halo 3 proof it's that good???????


If they'd put halo 2 back online I wouldn't by another game again. Point blank.

Preach brother preach

Is Destiny going to be a competitve shooter? I heard it will be more of a co-op shooter along the lines of Borderlands

BUNGIE HAS STATED MULTIPLE TIMES THAT THERE WILL BE PvP IN DESTINY

I thought Destiny was something Borderlands-like too. Either way it looks fun.

I remember the day I got my first 50 and the map I was on. I didnt even do good that game

Knew my tool of destruction percentages would look like that. 6 gun game. AR starts inflating those melee kills. 80% of my kills from that top 5

But pvp isn't straight up team slayer tho. If it's just like skirmishes you can have an no real competitive element to it then it's basically like any other mmo

Do you think it'll be along the lines of Halo? I only ask because everyone talks about how much fun they had with Halo. I never played the first two Halo games and really didn't play it on 360 since Gears took all my time. If it's as fun as you all say then I wouldn't copping.

 

[blastercombo]

What they should add to the 50 ranking is some type of way to keep it and "start over" so to speak. That way you don't just quit playing that game type. Maybe a tally mark or something so you can reach it multiple times

I went positive on my 50 game thankfully, got it playing with Kirby. 

I got about 1480 exp on my TS 50 atm but I'm so horrible now I ranked down to 46 

 

 

[bamez]

damn, not buy another game for Halo 2 online?  That's a little OD.  And we dont believe you.

 

[putting in work]

A lot of what has been said so far about what they need to change with Halo I agree with... and I'll add another that I've said in this thread before.

The terrain of the maps...

They need to make the terrain (floors that you walk/run on) to be metal, concret or something that grenades can bounce off of like how the Pit and Narrows and a lot of other maps from H2 and H3 were.

In Halo 4 all the maps were the same look with grassy and brown dirt like terrain/floors so you couldn't do any grenade bounces and drop your opponents shields and finish em off quickly.

I hope they also keep it as frag and plasma grenades and they don't try to add some cluster bomb type nonsense that throws the grenade system off.

If they sold a new console named OD that only played halo 2 I'd buy it over the x1 and ps4. Baleeee dat

YES BY PvP I WAS REFERRING TO TEAM SLAYER.

The playlist EXP thing was a wonderful thing. I wasnt going to stop playing TS anyways, but that made me feel like I was playing it for a reason, to achieve something. I have over 3k playlist EXP in team slayer.

I am a shell of my former self on that game too. Not nearly as good as I used to be, it feels so bad.


Oh and Assault needs to come back, it was so much better than CTF it wasnt even funny.

I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING BUNGIE AND DESTINY FOR A GOOD WHILE NOW AND THE COMMUNITY SEEMS TO BE THERE. ALL THE VIDEOS I SEE ONLINE, I'M LIKE DAMN, BODY IS READY FOR THIS. MAKE THAT TEAM SLAYER ON POINT AND IT'S A WRAP. THEY MIGHT AS WELL START MAKING HALO A GAME FOR MOBILE PHONES ONLY

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE HALO 5 COMMUNITY BUT I'M SURE THEY ARE VOICING THE CONCERNS WE HAVE IN THIS THREAD ON THEIR FORUMS.

 

[antidope]

View media item 902804On the last day Bungie kept live stats for H3 I had that much slayer exp. It was a great way to keep me playing that Playlist even though I had a 50 that I could never lose in that Playlist.

 

[method]

YOU'RE REFERRING TO THE MAP ZANZIBAR. ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE MAPS.

That floor bounce glitch on zanzibar 

 

[blastercombo]

I need to find the H5 forums and spam the changes (or unchanges) they need to do till the game releases.

 

[blackboyfly]

Man I'm about to pop Halo 3 in right now

 

[memphissfinest]

I need to find the H5 forums and spam the changes (or unchanges) they need to do till the game releases.

I'M SURE THAT IS ALREADY WELL UNDERWAY BY MANY INDIVIDUALS ON THEIR FORUMS
