343 needs to be disbanded. Fix the MCC so I can play online. I didnt buy Halo 5 and I wont be wasting my money on whatever joke you come up with for Halo 6.

Locke sucks. Master Chief is the goat.

"Chief we tend to think of as kind of a vessel for your adventure rather than necessarily this major character in the universe. He’s really just your entry into the universe."

If this is true then he should have been a silent protagonist. Once you give a character a voice and a story and *backstory* and have him form relationships with other characters he's not a "vessel for your adventure"; he's a character, with thought and motivations and story arcs that people want to see explored. Approaching the Master Chief this was is a terrible idea, and these two sentences alone have killed my ability to believe that 343 can deliver a good Halo story. I really hope they learn more than just "put more Chief in the next game", because if they don't, they'll just end up ruining a beloved character and his series.

Loved Halo 5, don't understand where all the dislike comes from.

I actually the story of halo 5 but I didn't like the same repeated boss fights over and over. I also like Locke but he is no master chief so putting master chief back where he belongs is a good idea. I hope they show halo 6 at e3 cause I love me some halo, wish it would release this year but I doubt it.

I'm tired of Master Queef

Oddly the writer of Halo 5, Brian Reed is known for bad comics and poor character stories. He lived up to his reputation, by writing a sub-par plot for Halo 5. None of Reed's Halo related stories (books, games or comics) were well received. Had Halo 5, had a story comparable to Halo 4, the game would of gotten somewhat higher reviews. And may have even gotten been better reviews than Halo 4.

Brian Reed appears to have left or was fired from 343i. It is kind of sad, that the writer got all the blame, when Frank O'Connor was likely one of the people approving the story Reed created. Halo 5 didn't really feel like proper follow up to Halo 4. I personally think 343i, should of went with Halo 4 being the last Master Chief focused game. The other plot, I was expecting, which was being implied by expanded lore, was a story involving either ONI or Dr. Halsey as a villain. Unfortunately, I got a plot that murked the game's good level design, and tight gameplay. Hopefully, Halo 6 has a solid story, that is on-par with Halo 4's.

Hopefully and.if they ruin Master Chief its over

You should put focus on Xbox's biggest mascot. That's only common sense

Be careful. Put too much into the story and then some will call it a "movie game". Can't have that.

I don't understand their decision to do it. I thought it was understood after ODST like 8 years ago, and to a lesser extent 'Reach', but only because it was still pretty good. We play Halo for Master Cheif. We play Metroid for Samus. God of War, Witcher, fucking Mario etc...
I hated when they split it up with The Arbiter way back in Halo 2, and yet the devs keep going down the same story path where you only play the main character half the time(if not less).

Cool

i think locke should have a scene were he dies... coz he's just too boring for me...

My biggest wish for the next halo is simply a decent FoV, Im not even looking for some crazy high number, just a FoV thats similar to most other FPS games. Really low FoV and then huge gun models basically leaves barely any view left.

Halo has not been the same since bungie quit making halo games. I say give bungie a pile full of cash and artistic freedom for halo 6 and THAT game might be goty... Otherwise it will be more shit with great mp.

Just have Master Chief kill off Locke in the 1st level of the next game.

I personally always thought Master Chief was a boring character but he is a godsend compared to that abomination Locke, hopefully they get rid of Locke and his teammates (as well as Master Chief's) and focus soley on the Cortana and Master Chief dynamic

Good start, secondly please focus on graphics, GRAPHICS!!!

Holo LOL

This good to hear.
It would be kewl if Buck made it to the team. If I could ask for one thing it would be variety. Time to add a more varied enemy. I grow weary of Covenant/Forrunner AI.

the way I see it: Halo 5 Story = meh. Halo 5 Multiplayer (Arena) = Best ever. Locke= who approved the stupid design of his helmet? Master Chief = not sure who's cooler, Iron Man or Master Chief.

Drop promethians, most boring race ever. Get the banished and make atriox the Main villian = pure Gold

Yes! Happy that they listened!

hopefully they double-down on the Cortana focus as well.

The fcked up by adding Locke in Halo 5. Im gald 343 will be focusing more on the Chief from here on out as they should.

Good they finally realize that, but the problem now is that 343i already almost killed the Halo franchise hype with that Halo 5 atrocity, who knows if they release another Halo game will be as popular as the old ones, the Halo series aren't the only ones in this falling status, Gears of War series is also falling apart cause of the same reasons, last Gears game was/is freaking horrible.

Give Master Chief a love interest, or a cute sidekick, or get him to take off his helmet for the majority of the game so everyone sees his face.

Guess I'll be skipping this one

Why not make something new??

How many more re-writes can this universe handle? I am not a fan of the way 343 is handling this series at all.

Great. More Halo games confirmed.

#no one cares because everyone plays playstation?

Halo 4 had an amazing Campaign but a step backwards in the MP department. Halo 5 had a lackluster campaign but a MP experience that returned to form with new upgrades. I've been a halo fanatic since CE and I must say H5 MP is one of my favorites by far! I'm still playing it to this day. 343 You know what you must do now. Make HALO GREAT AGAIN with 6. Don't fuck this up.

Halo 5 felt empty to me, and i agree on the lack of chief in the game. Also the reason halo fell off is because bungie doesnt have their hand in it anymore. 343i cant compare to bungie. Halo 5 however multiplayer was great

I feel like series fatigue is more of the culprit here.

I love how instead of coming out with a new IP / exclusive, they would rather continue to beat a dead horse.

Ride that horse, till you have to shoot him in the face.

I have no faith in this studio being able to make a great Halo campaign. RIP Halo

Lets see if they can do better next time

With this statement, they fail to realize why Halo 5's story is factual dog ass. And it has nothing to do with a lack of Master Chief... while that was disappointing.
