I haven't been a big fan of Halo since 3. To me this doesn't really look like my era of Halo and it feels like it's a notch or two away from that Fortnite style humor but damn if this doesn't look fun. I hope I can keep up because casually playing MCC these days I get smoked fairly regularly and I played those games religously back in high school!

Looks like traditional Halo with some additions like grapple-hook. If you're not tired of the classic formula then this will be a great package but I will pass on what has been shown so far (this E3 and last year). Battlefield looks to be on a completely different level.
Surprised you're not into it.

The map with the purple flying (I want to say banshee but that isn't right) thing looked like a classic map but I don't know which one.

And skill upgrades? Some sort of rpg element or skill tree? The grappling hook seems like a nice addition too

Seems like there is no garbage ADS this time.

Let's hope customization won't fuck up the visuals, but excited otherwise

I'm convinced MO and SP are launching separately now.

Both trailers were great though. I am so pumped.

Is anyone else surprised that this was all that was revealed? This was supposed to be the big re-reveal for Microsoft's biggest first party game in years, and it feels like nothing was revealed.

The single player segment was mostly cinematic and didn't show us any real prolonged gameplay like last year.

The multiplayer montage had so many quick cuts that it was impossible to tell how the game actually plays and feels.

I was expecting a lot more.

Art from what we saw reminded me of Halo Wars 2 in a good way.

Wonder if it will be F2P on xCloud, for anyone to play. That would be a big push for MS.

IMO, their 120FPS push is actually all about xCloud... as pushing games to 120FPS lowers input lag, even if you are only streaming at 1080p/4k60FPS.

The maps though. Actually looking great. Loving the banished covenant vehicles too.

Ehh. It's because I'm not tired of the classic formula that the gameplay of this entry with sprint and grappling hooks isn't appealing to me.

Funny you say that though cause while I was watching the trailer I wondered "is this different enough for people not already into Halo?". Halo feels like it's in a weird place where the ways in which 343 want to please both old fans and attract new ones aren't different enough to many who aren't very familiar with Halo yet at the same time too different for many people who are.
Lots of weird skins and cosmetics. I just hate the in your face "lul so random" thing a lot of multiplayer games go for these days.
Oh, I get that.

BTB is 24 players now.

The maps look incredible and diverse. A massive step up from Halo 5.

It looks fun just judging by this trailer.

That said, the "armor ability"-esque moves looked a bit worrying/possibly annoying depending on how they actually implement them within the game. Though I am optimistic with 343 and how they handle these things after Halo 5, even if H4 sucked in this kind of area.

Obviously sprint is still in and a core aspect of the game's identity. But the game looks a lot slower than Halo 5, which is either a good thing or bad thing depending on your opinion of it. Me personally, I think slowing Halo down from 5 might be a good idea on the whole and for most people/the game more generally, but I also think it's kind of a bit disappointing for me game pace-wise, just from looking at this trailer. I'm someone who actually quite liked the pace and movement options of H5 and how you really had to chain them all together and be fast to really be good at it. I liked thrusters, hovers, and ground pounds and all that stuff definitely looks to be out of the game.

The guns look good and fun, which is important.

Can't wait to actually get my hands on it for myself to see how I really feel, but I'm excited and hopeful.

They really don't look that out of the world considering Halo 3 had a lot of the same or stuff in the same vein (Hayabusa). It looks patently Halo.

This makes so much sense and also my guess. Though it's a bit concerning they didn't feel comfortable enough to announce that date.

yah, I go back to what Jason Schreier said, that no 2021 date is safe until you got the game in your hands.

I'd rather them wait and make sure it's ready now. It looks so fucking good, just gotta bring it home.
