I already downloaded digital copy because

A) I'm going to keep this and play it for eternity

B) I don't want to have to take in and out the disk when I switch games

C) Not worried about bonuses. everything is possible through use in this game.

Seriously getting to pre download the 9GB Day 1 update is reason enough to go digital

Yes, but not as much as any of the others. I've enjoyed it on MCC, though.

There is definitely a motion tracker, and if there are H2 like button glitches, I haven't discovered them.

Multiplayer motion tracker was only introduced in H1 MLG playlists on PC.

And, how do you call yourself a Halo purist if you don't know what backpack reloading, double punching, and instacamo are?

Sorry m8, Halo 2 doesn't equal Halo purism.

Just looked up some of the H:CE giltches. Pretty cool. Wish I had done that sooner.

Guess I should have said "since Halo 2." I gambled, and I stand corrected.

My point still stands, though. The absence of button glitches doesn't make a more H2A-like game inferior than what we are getting, It certainly doesn't make it less H2-like than H5. For all we know, button glitches will be absent from H5, as well. (I think?? )

I doubt there will be button glitches, but the fact that you can grenade yourself power weapons and power ups will add a competitive dimension to the game that hasn't been there since H1.

The only punishments in H4 were, you can't shoot while you sprint. H5 punishments are way harsher than that.

The hitboxes and bullet magnetism won't be anything like H4.

Don't get me wrong I am not a fan of armor abilities, but H5 is the first in the Halo series that actually dishes out punishment for using them.

H5 is going to be competitive and the industry knows it. (Hints: the first $1 Million HCS tournament.)

So..... It was on every Halo game. Is it not on Campaign, also?

I'll get over it.

I'll still take my brand of "Halo purism" over that of people claiming this is "Halo going back to its roots"

But hey, they've alienated enough people already, to the point that they won't even be giving the game a shot. At least I plan on doing that.

Also, Warzone has the potential to be the first FPS-MOBA mix game. Which could get HUGE for microsoft if they pursue it in that way.

Personally, I think they should alter and offer Warzone as a f2p FPS MOBA game on the marketplace by itself. That is where I see the potential of that playlist.

I hope it's a major success, with tons of people bitching about the same crap I am, and in H6, we get the super-sexy looking Halo 2 I so desire.

Actually..... First and foremost, I hope it works (which I think it will).

The franchise wouldn't survive another MCC like disaster.

I am excluding campaign from this conversation because the only thing competitive about campaign is speedrunnning, in which a motion tracker is not helpful.

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena

Do you know what DotA, League of Legends, Smite, etc. is?

(LoL is the biggest game in the world. DotA isn't far behind.)

I speedrun H2, and have quite a few top 10 levels without the use of skulls. (Runs with skulls are disqualified by GDQ and HaloRuns.com)

Motion trackers are completely useless when speedrunning, because I already know what happens during my line.

I've possibly heard of League of Legends??

But no, I know nothing about any of those.
