if the assault rifle has ads then i wonder if there is weapon customization now

They said it was arena gameplay so everybody starts with same weapon so I think it destroys the motive of weapon customization

What do you know, I found something else to complain about in that 7 seconds of footage, lol. That BR seems to only have 1.5x zoom instead of the 2x zoom of the BR Halo 2, 3, and 4. That suggests to me that BR will continue it's role as a shorter ranged precision weapon from Halo 4, while DMR will take the role of medium range precision weapon. If DMR's still win mid range encounters against BR's like they did in Halo 4 I'm going to be pretty annoyed. BR used to be the go to weapon in Halo 2 and 3, and it was a mistake by Bungie to replace the BR with the DMR in Halo Reach. Going to be so annoyed if DMR is still the all-around best weapon in Halo 5 like it was in Halo 4. The true king, BR, needs to return to it's rightful place.

After the weapon tuning update DMR was shit mid range. Only ever used to cross map.

Yes so that as soon as they release beta we can start complaining and get it right before launch

Id prefer waiting to see how it works.  Looks like the aiming works the same to me with an option to aim down your sites as you have been able to do in every halo game.  Maybe works a little different and with more weapons but aiming down the hips looks exactly the same.  Even while he is zoomed in it has the same reticule as he had when aiming from the hips.  Think BR, Sniper, etc Not red dot

Shinobi also said Locke is the primary character and then replied saying this....

Think more along the lines of MGS2.

 

 

I've never played MGS2...What does that mean? xD

Other way around.

 

Locke is Raiden, who is Raiden! xD why can't he compare it to a game i've played =/

 

 

So apparently you play as Snake for one chapter in MGS2 and then Raiden for the rest of the game....and Locke is compared to Raiden....Great


Basically MC won't be the primary playable character. He'll be more in the "shadows". Best way i can explain it.

Just have to play a round of Counter Strike now to have some nice AK-47 action without ADS^^ which is btw pretty funny that Shinobi said it's to push the competitive scene when Counter Strike, known for competitive gaming like no other shooter is famous for usage of weapons without ADS...

Ads will make the game better. Imo.

No it won't. It will just be another COD clone at that point. Halo needs to stay Halo. Why change the core mechanics that made Halo great just so you can stay in the "Trend"
