Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Halo 5 disappointed at GamesCom.That say the "GamePro" magazine

The editors of "GamePro" played Halo 5. Their conclusion is a bit disappointing : ( It's not just the graphics, but the solo campaign.

The question is: Is the new "halo-team" maybe bad for the Halo 5-Game ? Here is the article from germany

"Ich hoffe inständig, dass 343 zielgenau die unspektakulärste Kampagnenmission für die Gamescom-Demo gewählt hat. Für mich bedeutet Halo beeindruckende Weltall-Panoramen, spektakulär inszenierte Gefechte und spaßige Fahrzeug-Abschnitte. Stattdessen habe ich nur ödes Dauergeballer in grauen Raumstationshallen gesehen.

Auch hinsichtlich des Koop-Fokus bin ich noch hin- und hergerissen: Einerseits gab's wirklich ein paar coole Szenen, in denen mich wirklich als Teil eines Teams gefühlt habe. Und die unterschiedlich Story- und Gameplay-Ansätze der einzelnen Charaktere könnten mich durchaus zum mehrfachen Durchspielen einzelner Missionen motivieren.

Andererseits wirkte Halo 5 zumindest beim gezeigten Einsatz mehr wie ein Multiplayer-Shooter. Sowohl beim Leveldesign als auch hinsichtlich der unzähligen Bildschirmanzeigen. Zurück bleibt die Hoffnung, dass sich die Solokampagne von Halo 5 bei der Gamescom einfach nur unter Wert verkauft hat. Ende Oktober wissen wir mehr"

What do you say to "GamePro" that finds the solo mode disappointing? And what do you say about the graphic? Is it good or "okay" ?

 Im curious about your thoughts. Please remain factual and discussed. What do you expect for ratings?

Only criticizing the solo campaign. I guess people who play it for that are in the minority.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Honestly, Halo 5 looks far, far less impressive than Halo 4 when it was making the pre-release rounds. I get the impression it's trying to be Borderlands with the co-op thing.

None of which will probably make any difference in terms of sales. Still, it's going to be interesting to watch in comparison to Halo 4.



I...do not speak German...What did they say?



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Boohoo H5's graphics are not the best on consoles...

There is a strong focus coming from the XBox brand to push online multiplayer, while we already know that Sony is the one pushing single player campaigns.

I don't even think that most XBox gamers care too much for the single player portion of the game to be honest.

Halo 5 has given the reviewer cancer.



Hmm, they must have completed the single player campaign already... Oh wait, they had a chance to play it for a while. Like most sequels in a series, you are either a fan or you find the sequels less and less interesting as they go.



It is near the end of the end....

I think a lot of Halo fans care for the single player campaign... it'S just that not every gamers puts graphics on a pedestal and spits at anything that isn't a graphical showcase.
