So what'd everyone who watched it think? I liked it, kinda liked Nightfall for what its shown is so far. From what I can tell the Halo 5 beta looks ok, but some things didn't seem to fit in or really go with Halo but other things I liked (yes I know its a beta) but I want to hear from you guys and what you guys think.
Highlighted stuff:
•So ADS is there, but its considered an ability so it seems to only affect the player using it (one thing though is how it affects canon)
•DMR looks....less than impressive
•Prophets Bane? Back story to that so it's not just there and people are thinking "Why is this a thing?"
•Weapon zooms: I kinda like the older Yale of zoom where when you zoom using a magnum, DMR, br, etc. you see the area of where the scope shows zoomed in and everything else around that circle/square area of zoom is shaded/blacked out. The new zoom modes (except for DMR[so far]) seem kinda weird/not fitting to Halo, and CoD'ish
•Nightfall was interesting. Can't wait to learn more about this modified element is and what the creature/species is that lies below the surface of the ring.

Loved it.

Prophet's bane is Thel's sword he killed Truth with, I'm guessing. ADS is dumb. Climbing is dumb. Spartan abilities, we'll have to wait and see I feel, but I'm certain there will be some problems. Centered crosshair is eeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhh. Why the hell is the DMR on Midship anyway? It's a freaking small map.

When I first saw the people getting infected I thought it was the flood :(

The AR ADS made me cringe. That is all.

Back in my day, ADS was around before CoD

Was that colonel guy Jun from halo reach?

Edited by Un1337ninj4: 11/11/2014 5:50:15 AMDude, ADS is just bad, it's -blam!-ing Canon! One does not just up and say "Some spartans decided having to actually aim was superior than simply thinking about it." I think I'm starting to really disagree with 343I's art direction...

First thing's first, the multiplayer announcer is trying [i]way[/i] too hard. Kinda on the fence about the gameplay, but I guess I'll get hands on with it in December anyways, so I'm keeping an open mind.

Poor 6. He's getting shunned
