glad you stream lng, you're the only streamer I actually like watching live. feels less like a live stream and more like im eavesdropping on someone chat halo with their pals at a bar.
The railgun, Sticky detonator, Saw, and Halo 5 Magnum were my favorite guns of the 343 era. Not alotta positives from that era so take what I could get lol Oh! If we’re talkin Halo Reach the Needle Rifle, Focus rifle, and Plasma repeater were my favs
Oh man, Happy Birthday! It was my birthday 3 days ago. Unfortunately, I have been sick (like bad sick), so while we got a cake, I haven't touched it. I got some games, which is fantastic, and I took a day off of work. Addendum - Bad sick...I'm having gallbladder problems, and they're probably going to take it out. At first, we thought it was cancer because I lost like 30 pounds in 5 months. No worries, I will survive this.
I like the idea, but in practice, I think it might be a little much. Unless you level the weapons and drop them out in batches as the campaign progresses. I would like to see Master Chief have the weapons I exited an area with continue on the next stage.
5:15 , i will always miss those interesting zoom in animations. They worked exactly the same as scoping in previous games. They just should have had more weapons using both styles and also not applied it to every weapon. But those zoom in animations looked nice and as far as mechanically speaking they were not ADS. Just visually but they had the exact same effect as before.
I'm sorry, I am a Halo veteran who has never missed a single Halo launch, and I loved being able to look down the sites. I don't understand why LDS (Look Down Site) wasn't utilized from Halo 2 onward. Look, I know everyone says it's a COD thing, but that is not technically true. It is how everyone would be firing their weapons in reality. That makes it a realism thing. Master Chief would not be hip firing anything, and the fact that you can use the scope on the Battle Rifle and DMR makes not having LDS strange. Here's the thing, having it has no effect on anyone. You can play Halo without it, no problem. It's like having your cake and eating it too. Why complain about that?
Literally anything made by 343 is garbage. I wish I could name a single weapon that felt like it belongs in halo that was an original creation from 343. Not a single one
Conceptually alot of 343 weapons could have been cool but suffered from 3 main issues imo: 1 was the artstyle direction. Nothing made in that artstyle looked like the world of halo we all knew and loved. 2 they failed in the weapons execution, they didnt fit properly into any niches or mechanically speaking were not very interesting like railgun is basically just a weak fast charging spartan laser, saw is just a rapid fire assault rifle, sticky det was just op, etc. 3 they tried to replace iconic weapons like the plasma rifle with generic alien versions of human weapons like the storm rifle, and made all of the alien and human weapons all have these weird equivalents to eachother like oh this is the human full auto gun and then heres covenant and forerunner full auto gun and then heres each version of the sniper, its like the aliens were just copying human weapon roles entirely when they should have tried to stand out from those roles and provide new and interesting mechanics. Really the only weapon that i think was closest to being a proper halo weapon was the plasma caster. It at least tried to provide something unique with having a bouncing grenade primary fire and a sticky aoe attack for its charge attack. That thing really came in clutch for some good plays. But in general its the same story as all the other design aspects of 343/halo studio games. They are more interested in shaping halo into an easily accessible, easily digestible franchise for a broader audience that doesnt exist for halo.
I don’t know, I like a few of the Infinite ones. The skewer is a massive improvement over the Spartan Laser in both feel and balance in my opinion. I’m not crazy about the look of the weapon but if they slimmed it down a bit and gave it a distinct barrel it would be perfect. The Heatwave and Cindershot are awkward in the perfect way, they match the aesthetic and alien feel of the sentinel beam while being much more complex mechanically and playing off of the game’s sandbox more.
@@thebigyes8482 I'm all for people enjoying things, and I never want my comments to discourage those who do enjoy the weapons from chiming in, so thank you for adding your perspective. I can appreciate what some of the guns brought to the game but aesthetically, none of 343's additions fit

I hate focus rifle lol, but those other guns you said are all nice. Especially that sticky det, that thing was nasty and i miss it so much
What about the Cindershot? 🙄
I remember the needler glow-up! that really defined the fidelity of Reach

If only there was a Halo Game that had EVERY HALO WEAPON!

Should have had a special rank for the Reach Beta pistol. That thing was damn close to the glory of the Halo CE pistol.

Halo5’s aiming down the sights did not work like scoping. It provided accuracy and range buffs.
@LateNightHalo so does rrr
@LateNightHalo in every halo game scoping in increases rrr and aim assist and tightens spread
@LateNightHalo the issue with Smart Link was that it was applied to every weapon. It didnt need to be on every weapon.
@LateNightHalo not to mention when they introduced random spread on the br when scoped in on everyone hated it and they got rid of it

I think every Halo 5 Promethean weapon is worse than its Halo 4 version.
The Halo 4 Shotgun straight up looks like it's AI generated...

@ you said it perfectly

@ In your view, in what way does the heatwave deviate from the game’s artstyle?
