My first play through is always solo legendary and I don't look for skulls of any collectables/easter eggs.

then I play on Normal and spend way too much time looking for stuff. so far all ive done was the first mission. I found all the intel and the skull and there is also two special weapons, only found those because the new glow weapon thing and Lockes little hack thing will highlight intel if you are close enough

I've got the first two skulls. There is one when you are evacuating where you need to destroy the street cones. For some reason I can't even find one of them.

I've basically played through it twice already on Heroic because of co-op playthrough. I'll probably do a easy/normal playthrough next to grab all the intel and skulls. Then my friend and I will probably try to do all of the achievements.

Then I will move on to solo and co-op legendary

The campaign is pretty easy on solo legendary. The two worst parts are your team never reviving you when you and the fricking Warden Eternals

Co-op Legendary isn't that hard imo. I'm finding these "super hard" settings aren't what they used to be. 1999 for BioShock Infinite was a breeze.

I found getting high gave me an advantage. Stick and move after that. Even better if you can grab a rail gun and get someone to distract him.

Easiest way to beat them is to go face to face. Have him charge at you about to slash you. Then thrust to the side right before he hits you. He will swing but miss you and you can turn around and shoot him in the ball on his back where he's the weakest. I had a shotgun and it worked pretty good on legendary.

Well at least I can say I gave Halo 5 a chance. Just can't stomach seeing such a once great multiplayer be reduced to this.

The MP has been pretty good


I'm not happy that it looks like shotty-snipes is going to be the next game type to drop instead of CTF, but oh well.

you can play CTF in Team Arena, which is my guess as to why everyone voted for Shotty Snipes.

Yea, but I have to wade through a bunch of crap to get to it. I just want a CTF game type set up. That use to be a staple.

a few remade maps there. I'll be getting back into Halo in a bit. New CoD is out and I am enjoying my time a bit with it.

The MP isn't Halo. It's a sick twisted ADHD version of Halo. I understand games have to change but 343 took everything that made Halo great and threw it out the window. Strafing in Halo has always been a staple. Not in this game bc you have the ultimate built in non skilled based strafe in thruster. Hey classic Halo aiming and zoom works great and everybody loves it so let's do ADS!!!! Crouch jumps that took skill to do quickly move throughout levels is replaced by clamber that anybody that can press "A" can do. The movement is clunky bc it's just a bunch of button pressing instead of actually knowing how to move around properly. I could go on forever but it just makes me too pissed off.

Wat?


You still have to strafe and yeah the thrust is there but it's up to you to use it at the right time and chose to implement it into your strafe.

The ads isn't that big of a deal at all. They added back the descope when you get shot.

Crouch jumping is still in the game and yeah clamber is there but there are jumps you can crouch jump into and not have to go into the animation which can give you an advantage. And there are some jumps that you have to crouch jump at in order to get high enough to clamber.


and all the new abilities create new ways to get around the maps. Sorry you don't know how to use them to your advantage
