Early Predictions on Halo 5.

Speculation has been swirling around Halo 5 since a February 2011 news segment displayed an “Inside Halo 5″ placeholder graphic long before Halo 4 was even announced. Though, it was no secret that development would continue on one of the biggest franchises in gaming history. Now just 9 months after the release of Halo 4, the gaming world is abuzz with Halo 5 rumors and gossip. With the recent unveiling of the Xbox One, gamers can soon expect big announcements from 343 Industries on their next entry in the Halo series. There are still a lot of things that the general public does not know about Halo 5, but here are the things that are likely about the game so far:

• • Halo 5 is an Xbox One exclusive and is set for a late 2014 release.
  • Per the Xbox One’s increased symbiosis with Kinect 2.0 it’s expected that Halo 5 will integrate Kinect functionality in some way.
  • The team of 343 Industries wants to be more “adventurous” than halo 4 while respecting the “pillars and …principles” at the heart of series. This likely means core gameplay will remain largely familiar to Halo veterans while new gameplay elements, environments and interactions (Kinect?) should be expected.

Official information on Halo 5 is lacking, but Gaming Illustrated has rounded up the bits and pieces trickled out over the years. Here is what’s known for sure:

• Halo 5 is official and confirmed as the second entry in the Reclaimer Trilogy.
•  
• The game is currently under development. Frank O’Connor, Franchise Development Director at 343, says, “We’ve done as much prototyping and storytelling and the future arc of the universe as we have on technology.”
•  
• The development team recognizes some mistakes and missteps made with Halo 4 and plans to make up for it with Halo 5.
•  
• Halo 5 is about a lost and lonely Spartan 117 who is trying to piece his life back together.

The internet is rife with much rumour and speculation as to the nature of the next major entry in the Halo franchise. Any information that hasn’t come from official sources should be met with reasonable skepticism. Considering the unveiling of the Steven Spielberg-produced Halo TV series and lack of Halo 5 news that came out of the Xbox One announcement, execs at Microsoft and 343 are expected to remain mostly mum on the game until this year’s E3. Until then, fan will have to glean what they can from the limited data available to them online, or just be patient.

A new Halo game for Xbox One is inevitable. In fact, it’s a wonder that a Halo title did not launch alongside the Xbox One in November. The new Halo technically has not been announced so it will not likely release for several months.With the hype already starting, there’s a pretty good chance this won’t be another Halo: Spartan Assault. Although the title has not been revealed, the safe money is on Halo 5.The big question is, what would you like or not like to see happen in Halo 5?

 

 

 

I hope we do see Spartan Ops in Halo 5, also I hope we go to kill bosses in Campaign and also unlock Armor and other special Skins for Weapons.

Also I wonder if Grifball or Swat will be in Halo 5. One last thing I wonder if they will add MLG to it.

What I'm hoping for is:

 

- No more monthly gametypes (I'm tired of playing an awesome gametype then it's all of a sudden gone the next month).

- Bring back the Arbiter (He was amazing and a VERY important Character and I MISS HIM! Lol).

- More flood/flood customization in custom games (I hated that the flood/infection gametype didn't have much customization in it as Halo: Reach and Halo 3, to the point where people had to Mod to make Infection gametypes. Plus I would love to see the flood back in one way or another, I personally would like to see a Flood wave mode and/or them in the Campaign)

- Forge 3.0 (Halo Reach's Forge was SO much more advanced than Halo 3's Forge but sadly Halo 4's Forge didn't have much to offer, especially since they hyped it up before launch, except for some lighting changes and magnets which got old fast)

- Knowledge of Cortana (I personally would like for them to give us a hint if she will or will not be able to come back in Halo 6)

I agree, but I hope flood no longer affects overall kill:death and win:loss in matchmaking.

1: Go get 'em, Frankie.

 

2: Oh man I hope this means what I think it does. If Halo 4 returns to the MLG spotlight I'm going to cry sweet tears of insolvent joy.

 

3: Should make for some epic storytelling. Halo 4 probably had my favorite story of them all so far, it felt very human.

 

 

 

"Also I wonder if Grifball or Swat will be in Halo 5. One last thing I wonder if they will add MLG to it."

 

You can count on Grifball and Swat. They're fan favorites.

MLG? We can only hope.

Also if they add MLG I hope there aren't any campers like before, and I hope they fix the booting option to three betrayls you get kicked out instead of one betrayl like Halo 4.

Also I'd like to be able to kill other humans in infection;

 

1) There was soo many times people were finding cheat spots that was unfair to everybody (during Halo Reach and I've seen it in Halo 4) and I used to kill them and stop them from being a nooby cheater. (It just really bugged me).

 

2) I had a strategy that (with a friend) we used to kill one another if we ran out of ammo (although half the time we got killed trying to rendezvous) Lol.
