If I could describe 343i with a single word, that word would be "lazy" everything about their games H4 MCC H5, all of it just feels lazy

At best they probably leave a bare bones staff to work on fixing things after their games ship while moving everyone else onto the next cash grab

They seriously have to have some suits from microsoft making them cut corners left and right for dat dere profit margin

343 did a super job with Halo 5. Outstanding campaign, flawless co-op, and the best multiplayer experience in the history of first person shooters.

I love the changes they have made and I hope they continue to distance themselves further and further away from past iterations. Halo is safe in 343's hands and I have no doubt Halo 6 will be another masterpiece.

In denial /\

The sarcasm is strong with this one.

The entire req system is half--Yoinked!- I mean lets be honest, you don't have to be good at this game to revive anything. There is nothing you have to work for. It is all just dumb luck and I personally hate it. And there is no way you can tell if anyone is good in your game you could have a max ranked player and never even know! I want it to go back to the way it was, where you had to work to get the armpit you wanted

No going back, only forward. Halo 5 is perfection. The very thought of ever playing a prior iteration again makes me laugh. Halo 5 is superior in every way. 343 got it so very right. The game is fast now and it is a blast actually feeling like a powerful Spartan rather than a pitiful slow lumbering hip firing soldier with a shield. Nothing super soldier about it. Halo 5 is the first time you truly get to experience being a Spartan. Not a glorified marine in a shiny suit.

343 has delivered. The vocal minority has no relevance. The rest of us are busy putting tons of hours into this masterpiece of a game.

I almost......... almost, thought that was serious.

I guess perfection includes game breaking bugs.

So far most of what 343 has added that the community asked for has been very half -Yoinked!- in its implementation. Its almost as if they say "I suppose we better do SOMETHING" then put in minimum effort and release it, begrudgingly saying "there you go, happy now?".
Examples of this are the "social playlists" and the file browser. We were promised social playlists and what did we get? all that was done was moving big team and adding a temporary playlist which really is just a long term weekend playlist with 2 more people. so in the long run all we have is big team, which was already there. Half -Yoinked!-.
And instead of actually building a proper file browser like we saw in reach, 343 added a bizarre system where you have to add people as your friend in order to play their map. Half -Yoinked!-

I agree.
Halo 5 may have a good potential but its just boring playing the same modes over and over again with a ranking system thats not even working that well. Today the servers were down again and i couldnt play arena or custom games so if i wanted to play Halo 5 i just had to play Warzone which is boring to play over and over again in my opinion...

And here you are complaining about the complainers! If you love halo 5 so much then what are you doing on these forums.

I genuinely struggle to understand how some ppl can sit here and defend 343i for the half finished game they have released. This isn't some bloke working down the local market selling fruit and veg...it is a multi million pound gaming business and it is their JOB to release a product fit for purpose. This game isn't anywhere near where it should be in terms of content and quality, and asking to cut them some slack after they've already taken everyones money simply isn't good enough. The reason why there are literally hundreds of threads criticising 343i is because of their incompetence and incomplete product...these issues shouldn't be issues and wouldn't be being discussed if they'd done their job properly.

I totally agree with you. But thats a Problem in the gaming industry AS a whole. Games are not about fun and giving people the greatest time ever while playing.. Its all about money now. And thats the Problem and AS long AS this is the type of thinking that the whole gaming industry has it well get more worse.
