I Start saying I love playing halo since the start and loved the campaign. But with this halo matchmaking is the reason i'm here now.
I have a few problems with the way the matchmaking is now and ill try my best to explain it. So here is my long thought out info after having 3 days of time played in matchmaking according to my Severus record.
There a few aspects that I feel take away from the way this game was played and now how it wants to favor the less skilled. One of them is the way how there load outs and it not that u have them it the fact that halo was starting weapons and you fight for control of the weapons and the control of the map area. But now it seems you get a OP boltshot and can camp with invisibility. Loadouts is not a something that should be in halo.
Weapons on map is a joke in this halo. There is nothing that says on the map you kill someone the weapons they had disappear within seconds of them touching the ground you have to use a "perk" to pick up grenades from a dead person. The maps are empty to weapons the only way u get ammo is death. Death of you or someone close, because if the person you killed is across map the gun probably gone by the time you get there.
With the way maps, gun, and abilities are set-up there is no reason to leave spawn in a slayer based game. You have a main weapon to get kills no need to go out getting a better one when u have a DMR and BR off the start. As you sit back and get kills you get your ordinances that comes 2 steps away from you. so why move around on the map now.
The Lack a re-spawn timer. Here a fun one. I get shot in this game I have to wait for my shield to regenerate so I have little to no shields after a battle and where does this guy spawn about 20 feet from me instantly and my shields still down not going up from the fight I just had with him. I still feel like im trapped I have gotten spawned into bullets a few times already when my team has no control. The fact that this is in objective game types also this ridiculous, playing flag, KotH, and Oddball there nothing tactical about playin now a death weighs no consequence.
Im still scoped in? This just makes the gun overpowered in the right hands like the sniper. this also just makes it a camp game if u can sit backed scoped in with a DMR. shooting across map has never been easier.
These are a few things on my mind I just feel Halo matchmaking has died and being morphed into COD. I feel halo 5 you don't have shields and u get red jelly on ur screen when your hurt right?
Basically if nothing changes soon... there no way I can buy another 343 halo game which is sad cause I enjoy the campaign but not enough 2 spend $60 on it
