The fact you need to farm grenades because you miss the first 20 throws to blow up the reactor lol.

It's pretty sad how it happened. The Humans and Forerunners just never communicated and everything in the galaxy died because of it. It's also pretty cool that the Librarian imprinted humans to guide them to create Combat Skins (MJOLNIR) and Ancillas (Smart A.I.). Halsey, John, their ancestors and basically everyone that invented new things that lead to the Spartan Program we're all given "imprints" (I think it's spelt Gaesh, in the books). There's even some pretty cool logs in Halo: Reach that allude to a conglomerate of Smart A.I. called "The Assembly" that took it upon themselves to guide humanity to survive the Human-Covanent War. Some of the advances that she made were apparently given to her by these A.I. but they did it so subtlety that she thought it was her own ideas.

I wouldn't say you are "unreasonably angry", you have every reason to be angry - what they've done is a convoluted means to drag the story and characters for the purposes of squeezing as much money out of it as they can. I don't have anything against them EARNING money, but you can't just serve up tripe.

The Halo books set up the rampancy pretty well if I remember correctly. I think it is mentioned when the advanced AI's are first introduced.

@@Want300 Just to clarify myself: I didn't mind the rampancy aspect of the story, it was sad seeing it happen to a character I cared about. However, I don't like the tortuous re-editing of that path to get more mileage out of it.

@@Want300 rampancy was a good concept, what I was referring to having a problem with was some of the cringe moments that could have been done better. They turned her from a badass AI going senile into a slightly pathetic AI but redeemed it with her saving chief. Rampancy good, the delivery not so much.

This meant that the gravemind was also incredibly smart, as it would consume every thought and memory of every being consumed by the flood. It is pretty much a hive mind, a connected consciousness. That’s also why the graveminds voice is so strange and distorted, it’s voice is a combination of all the being’s voices it’s consumed. With good headphones you can actually hear several different voices when it speaks, if you listen closely. Halo lore is so detailed and interesting.

Factsss

Reality is often disappointing.

Ture

I'd be glued to the History Channel if it had Halo lore on it.

i mean...yeah.

Pretty much the same thing as natural human history

There was a bit more to it. Humanity had made an alliance with the San'Shyuum to advance their own military. They were drastically militurising their civilisation in an attempt to defend against the flood. But they also didn't want to tell the forerunners of this threat as the tension between the two most advanced factions might have led to a war. And if the forerunners found out they were weak they might have struck. During the entire flood outbreak against the ancient humans they never loved any of their mahout fleets away from the forerunner human border. With this and the fact they were churning out fleets and weapons the forerunner ecumene was getting warlike in response. And when the humans decimated some stray forerunner cargo ships and world's they dealt a critical strike. Then it was too late the war was started with blood spilled on both sides.

That is how humans be

No the forerunners didn’t know

He didn't even scratch the surface tbh.

@@shadowphoenix1696 halo 5s multiplayer is the best in the series hands down. They fixed literally every issue from previous multiplayers. They took every single aspect of multiplayer from all the games and only kept what worked and made it in a way that kept the spirit of competitive halo and made it the most competitive in the entire series. With a lower barrier to entry while still having a much much higher skill ceiling and far more skill gaps. It brought back true halo multiplayer which was destroyed in halo reach and then in halo 4. Fair starts all the way. Plus the balancing in halo 5s multiplayer is lightyears better than anything bungie has ever done in any of their titles to date. Every single weapon has it's own niche and uses and none of then are too op. Plus you have more modes than ever before AND the best forge by miles with a custom games browser with free hosting. Not to mention they have lile 20x plus the amount of stuff to unlock, although I wish you could choose the order. I'd still take halo 5s system of reach any day of the week because of free dlc in exchange for microtransactions. Reaches credit system was pure cancer although it could have been great had they not had so few armor sets and had they not made it take dozens of hours to unlock a single shoulder piece on only on one side of your body lol. Then you've got the best competitive ranking system halo has ever seen. And this is coming from someone with thousands of hours on halo 3 ranked. It truly is going to be one of those games people look back on and think, damn was that good. People HATED reach on launch. Absolutely despised itsmultiplayer. For good reason I suppose, it was literally broken. But it always happens this way, when something new comes out its considered sooo trash by the hardcore community until the next one releases and suddenly everyone adored it. Happens with halo and cod and battlefield and pretty much every series with a hardcore fanbase. Halo 5s multiplayer has not gotten a fair shake at all. Plus the campaign wasnt even CLOSE to bad. It just wasnt as good as some of the others. It's still a great campaign relative to literally any other fps in the same market. (Cod, battlefield, ect.) The story was hit or miss. Most people were just pissed about the marketing but when you take that away there was nothing wrong with it really, it just wasnt stellar and some things could have been more fleshed out. But the gameplay and level design was some of the best in the series. The open verticale levels with freedom again and secret routes were a really nice change of pace from the completely linear games since halo 1. Plus the squad mechanics worked well in co op.

Aaron Halo 5 came out 4 years ago and the community could still care less about its multiplayer and its campaign. There has been more buzz around MCC this past year than Halo 5. It’s not gonna happen so just let it go. It didn’t take people 4 years to come around on Halo Reach’s multiplayer, and at the very least the campaign was good.

@@m.j.8226 lmfao you're the one who needs to "let it go" the game may be going backwards visually, but the next halo game isnt going backwards gameplay wise. Every single rumor implies things like sprint and clamber and armor abilities and RPG elements within the campaign. You ain't getting halo 3 2.0 lmfao so quit whining about it. There has been "more buzz" for mcc becuase all those halo games are finally coming to pc. Halo 5 still has FAR more players on console and the competitive scene is alive and well. Halo as a franchise across the board isnt what it used to be. Hasnt been since reach when they lost half their hardcore fanbase and mlg dropped them for making a broken multiplayer. You're entitled to your ownopinion, but halo 5 is the closest to halo 3 since halo 3. It is what went back to its roots. Even starts, map control, emphasis on precision weapons, ect ect ect. Things were just added, but you still play the game in the same way all be it more aggressively. None of the changes fundamentally changed how you approach the game. I've played competitively since 3, even provided boosting services for dubs and mlg so I'm well aware of how multiplayer is supposed to function

Aaron Why are you telling *me* to let it go? I haven’t whined about anything and I’m not hanging on to anything by a thread lol. I never once mentioned Halo Infinite or my expectations for it so please don’t put words in my mouth. Looking at a game’s competitive scene doesn’t exactly seem like a fair assessment imo. Obviously, competitive players will be consistently invested in a game. I could ask an ESL player how CSGO is doing and from their point of view, I bet they think it’s doing excellent. But hey, if we don’t see eye to eye on multiplayer then so be it. The only thing I don’t get is any praise or defense of the campaign. Saying that it isn’t as bad when you compare it to shit campaigns isn’t really a great defense.. “Oh Suicide Squad wasn’t THAT bad compared to movies like the Amazing Bulk...” Yeah? But they’re both still shit movies lol. No one is saying it’s the worst campaign ever to grace the Earth, but it is the worst in the series - hands down. If you don’t think it’s the worst design wise, at least acknowledge its awfully written story and dialogue, shallow characters, phoned in action/set pieces, recycled boss fights, etc. (irrelevant but it is etc - et cetera - not ect). Not at all what people expected out of the series and out of 343, even if they weren’t huge fans of 4’s campaign.
