[@MicahIsBatman2]

Partly. A combination of the systems would be better, I prefer the versatility of Coatings, but the coating system with custom colors for each coating would be way better than any of the other systems. If you completely ignore the fact that you pay for coatings, they are a better system.

@@MicahIsBatman2 Well, yes, if you take out the scamminess of Infinite’s system, coatings are way better. But that’s not really the comparison, because Infinite has coatings AND the color wheel.

Halo 5 over all is more stable, hyper competitive in fun ways, broken abilities that’s under utilize from my experience, “assassinations”, you can earn reck packs instead of paying over priced charges for free stuff the other 5 games have, more maps, game modes that didn’t take years to add in social playlists, more weapon customization upgrades, challenges and challenge rewards, more active and stable servers, and monetization.

NGL I miss some things from Halo 5 so bad and Im gonna write this down before I watch the video. The game had (at least for me) such a good responsive gameplay with the hitmarkers and I never experienced Desync. The Weapon Sandbox was INSANE for 2015. There was like a few Hundred weapons and it felt like that even without the many variants. Forge was GROUNDBREAKING and carried the Party games for a long time and most of all it had the best version of Firefight! It felt always super intense when 8 people had to get a Mantis or a Scorpion to deal with the endboss! The only things I didnt like were the Artstyle, the bloat of spartan abilities, the Campaign story (the missions itself were not that bad actually) and the toxic spawntrapping of vehicles in Warzone 12v12 were people could just immediately steal your legendary vehicles.

Being able to get into an aircraft or a vehicle with someone else, and having one person drive/pilot whilst the others use heavy weapons is just amazing. Driving a tank with four or five marines, flying a hornet, driving a troop transport warthog, or getting into the passenger seat in Halo CE and realizing it's first person, whilst going through the Maw--is unbeatable, and it's EXTREMELY frustrating that the Covenant and Forerunners don't have anything close--even though the Spirit and the Shadow indicates they SHOULD. I preferred the jetpack and armour lock to the grappling hook and ground pound, honestly--both of them felt real--although let's face it, there was a reason invincibility was campaign-only in Halo 3.I really like Forge mode and the multiplayer bots in Infinite, which almost brings Halo up to the quality of the early PC games with map editors and campaign editors and multiplayer bots, but I really miss Warzone Firefight. I'm getting too old for Halo.

[@buddyimevil5775]

Hot take: I wouldn’t had mind if they kept the thrusters in the gameplay (in Halo Infinite) but remove the ground pound and shoulder charge

[@CarbyGuuGuu]

Yeah, that was overkill and was one the reasons why the skill gap was so high in H5. Infinite’s skill gap felt more balanced… as long as the broken matchmaking didn’t get in the way.

[@common_curtisy247]

Sprinting, sliding, and thrusting are just such movement mechanics.

[@CommanderTiaph]

Wild take, but I think I prefer Halo 5 overall. I actually thought Halo 5's campaign level design was a lot more fun to play through minus all the Warden fights and the "levels" that had you just walk and talk. All Halo Infinites open world design did for me is solidify that I dont want it in a Halo game. Story and art direction is easily better in Infinite though. In general I think I liked Halo 5s multiplayer more. I really dont like shock weapons in Infinite and the variety of different weapons in 5 is fantastic. I especially love how they brought back classic versions of guns like the Magnum and Battle Rifle. The movement is a ton of fun too even if its not really Halo. But even just looking at Infinite visually the effects don't give me the kind of feedback that they should. Vehicle destruction feels very buggy and quickly despawns off the map after destruction, shock effects in general dont look right. Explosions in general are of lower quality. I'm also *really* not a fan of weapon spawns changing every time I play a map. Sliding and movement also just doesn't feel very crispy. I don't know, it just doesn't feel as "stable" as any other Halo game in the past. I still enjoy Infinite and love the forge but it just doesn't feel as good to play as other games imo.

I would also say for Infinite that for the best bang for your buck customization wise, I would consider it a $10 -$20 game so you get all the content from the seasons depending on how you progress it. Otherwise, it feels like Infinite was designed to look and feel like how the community expects a Halo game to look and feel. Whereas Halo 5 was seemingly designed with the intent to reestablish HCS after Reach and 4 kind of put it on Life Support for a bit.

[@xcfjdyrkdtulkgfilhu]

I hope they just make the next one a paid game again. I'm sure it will have MTX too, but if the base game is paid rather than F2P, the MTX wouldn't have to be as obtrusive. eg more unlockables, and the for sale items sold individually rather than mostly bundled.

[@stickyfing3rs534]

@xcfjdyrkdtulkgfilhu Hopefully so, I thought the perfect Halo shop, because there will be one, would just be custom emblems, coatings, and effects That way, people could still create their own emblem and pick a primary, secondary, and tertiary armor color like in the past, but then they could sell like a Digital Camo coating or specific weapon models.

[@giovanni9986]

Ones bad the others worse, but I’d definitely say a game mirrored after 5 because sure I’ll have to pay 60-70 bucks for it on launch but with all the bps and micro transaction bs I delt with it’s still far more cheaper. Especially since I did preorder halo infinite on a steel box. Honestly both had issues but with 5 yeah customization wise it’s worse but at least I can just earn and unlock what I want even if it’s digital roulette because the cash is free and I never had a problem earning it in game.

[@Baconator984]

Moving forward, if they're going to monetize armor customisation, give us the basic matte color choices like in previous games, then sell different patterns and finishes. For every armor permutation in the store, give us an equal amount unlockable through gameplay, or just make EVERYTHING unlockable through gameplay & let players pay to outright unlock most of them if they really can't wait, but have the ones tied to major milestones, like max rank, exclusively play to earn.

I completely agree with you Mint. It is important to see the positives and negatives of each game. I truly want Infinite’s equipment and simple base gameplay to stay and bring the positives from Halo 5. In the end, a playlist can be made in Infinite’s system in which players have unlimited thruster equipment and it would closely resemble a Halo 5 game. On another note: I really miss the Halo 5 weapon variants and the concept of Warzone (I hate the pay to win tho). Lastly: the monetization part is complicated, but hear me out. With the traditional model (paid game for $60) you end up paying for some stuff you never use (some colors and armor pieces). I am honestly OK with the free to play model as long as it has a healthy store, and by that I mean TONS of colors and armor at a fair price

[@Samuel_Loegan]

I don't know, I think both

[@clams377]

I’m taking halo 5 mp and infinite campaign. Solely for the fact that infinite is still janky and doesn’t fee triple A. Halo 5 also has way better firefight.

[@alliedbrandon1355]

Halo 5 is better and it’s not even close.

[@theballingboi5360]

I liked the req system because i daily played the game, so I would always choose the initial price game over the free to play. Tastes also change, so I would rather be able to chamge my armor and colors whenever as opposed to having to pay to do it every time i want to

[@Dragonfangize]

Halo 5 multiplayer and halo Infinite's redesigned Campaign would make a good game in my reference. Both make Halo and man i want warzone back in halo infinite. I think overall both games have their goods and bads, i don't like putting all the credit in one game, but i go for halo 5 for multiplayer. Ever since halo infinites campaign ended things haven't been going well for halo. I haven't tried halo infinites new multiplayer yet but for now that's my answer.

[@arbo-u2b]

I enjoy Halo Infinites campaign a lot more, and I feel like Infinites multiplayer is better from a gameplay standpoint, but Halo 5s multiplayer did a lot of things better in the live service part of the game. So many guns were added post launch and the sandbox especially when playing fiesta and warzone were awesome. Also I liked that you could unlock almost everything in the game through gameplay even if it was very grindy and unlikely to get everything you wanted, in Infinite half of the cosmetics are in the shop and it takes away the feel of progression.

[@justinscotty1450]

I think it would suit the next halo better to have a bit of both. I think the game should be offered for free, so you keep a wide range of players. But also allow fans to buy for a fixed price to get full online and customization content (like unlockables etc). I think this way free players can convert to paid players but fans can have their full experience from the get-go. Also I don't really mind the micro transaction bit as long as it's also obtainable through the game. I like how Call of Duty does this with so many in-game rewards. But also that you gain more points by completing a battle pass so you can save up points for the store if you like to. So in that case you could buy a battle pass only once and save coins for certain customizations later in the game. Or if you can't resist, buy them straight ahead.

Next halo game needs to be paid, not free to play.

[@deandreawilkins431]

Next halo game needs og weopons from h3 and reach 😊😊😊

[@FireSurge]

Disagree, I like the F2P model surprisingly. I have doubts a paid game would deliver much more in terms of quality.

[@mix7893]

@@FireSurge If it means we can have armor be an unlock reward again, I will pay.

[@Anska5126]

What halo would I play between the two? I'd rather the MCC Reach and 3 were the golden Age of Halo. I was around to see it's rise and then it's death at the hands of Halo 4 and later Halo 5 I'm not going to choose between 5 and 6. I played the campaigns of both, I played the multiplayer of both and I never returned to either one out of boredom and disappointment I want to see Halo return to how it was and succeed. I am glad some people like you enjoy the games today and keep the community alive even if microsoft has given up but I'm not on that train. I started on Halo 2 in 2005. And I'm still there living out the ashes of the golden age

[@koolerpure]

I think I’ve only played halo 5 story twice, there was so much missing that that it didn’t feel like halo

[@brickyrobot8932]

I definitely prefer to buy my games and unlock the rest by playing. Not a fan of req packs however because I want to know what I'm paying for before I buy it.

[@andykazoo]

Watching this made me realize how cracked you would be at Splitgate

[@BigBladeFan]

Oh halo 5 was very obvious the content was cut we all saw the concept art and the ideas that it had. Also let’s not forget that they had hunt the truth as well which was not translated to the game at all. Infinite may have had cut content but it is still way better and fun imo.

[@MintBlitz]

Fun fact about hunt the truth. The marketing didn’t even consult 343 and made up all of hunt the truth stuff, then said yeah this is happening, release it. Hilarious there was no consultation, saw David Ellis, ex 343 dev explain it on Twitter.

[@isaacediger4742]

Anybody else notice that ground pound at 3:57

[@matthewredenbaugh1110]

Halo infinite multiplayer would be perfect without the pay for cosmetics and a few other tweaks like player collision. If they were a more player friendly company they would just allow players to customize their own armor colors like we used to be able to do but with the more advanced individual armor coloring.

[@Gamer-dl6cz]

I'd rather pay $80 and have a full story campaign plus everything being unlockable by playing and no time exclusive content. and also what I really want from the next halo game is to have achievement/challenge tied customization, what I mean is that you get a unique armor piece/effect for completing LASO for example.

[@iNemesisTV2]

Halo 5 miles ahead above infinite awesome vid & a question on the gears vid never played one i can play 5 but is it worth it

[@dixon137]

Personally I just prefer halo 5s gameplay and weapon balance Also the art style tho I hate how they implemented it I really enjoyed the halo 5 beta Infinte is boring to me

[@hurricanehaydo3811]

I'll just say it out right, halo 5 will always be my top game regardless of what happens in infinte. The firelight actually felt fun and challenging when it came out. The weapon variety on halo 5 made it more fun to play even if it's the same gun over all they would react differently which made that part really fun. I miss breakout so much and have tried over and over again to recreate it in infinte, but I just don't have the friends that would play it. The movement and aiming style in halo 5 felt better to play, sure infinte is definitely smoother however I do love that yes you can sprint but do I stay and fight and hopefully get the last shot with no shield, do I run and risk running into someone else or do I have enough amo to pull this off, not being able to reload and sprint, no shield gen while sprinting changed the games pace to something I really enjoyed. The maps yes as some would feel like a copy and paste, it made it easy for new and veterans to learn the maps, similar in look but honestly played out very differently. The story for halo 5 was pretty meh however gameplay wise either solo or with friends was very very fun tho at times repetitive was still a blast to do. Idk if you'll read this at all but I've been in your kids for a while now saying what I think and this video as good as it is felt it missed a little bit hopefully this may help. P.s this is not a dig at you at all
