    (Calificación 7.2) Opinión personal un juego que al día de hoy es muy bueno en su modo multijugador. Desgraciadamente esto no aplica en su fecha de salida este juego salió incompleto y con una campaña aburrida y poco carismática. Pero su multijugador actual me párese muy divertido

    This game is just meh. The game play is decent, but the story sucks so badly and doesn't make any sense. This game is more of the same and is just repetitive. Nothing changes, it's the same go here, shoot, go here, shoot. The characters suck and Masterchief is second fiddle in this game. Not a good choice, this game is just meh. Buy it on sale, just because it's Halo, but know it's just average.

    I felt as if Halo 5's campaign was just a big lackluster. It felt as though many of the campaigns features were rushed or cut short. The characters could be really interesting if they had allowed more character development with them, but they did not. The multiplayer was a fun new addition to the Halo arena matches. The new controls made the multiplayer feel versatile and enjoyable. II felt as if Halo 5's campaign was just a big lackluster.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Halo 5 isn't a bad game, in fact, it brought a lot of new mechanics and raised the gameplay to today's standard. Also, its graphics are very good and the cutscenes look very realistic.
    Now, where does this game fail? The story. The story itself isn't as good as the original trilogy one, but the thing with Halo 5 is that you play like 75% of the game using Spartan Locke instead of Master Chief. The problem with that is that you literally only buy Halo to play as Master Chief and playing almost all the game with Locke is a little disappointing.
    Overall, not a bad game but not as good as the original Halo trilogy. 6/10    … Expand

    The campaign story was awful. Just ruined halo 4 and was plain boring. The dialog was so poorly written and it was such an insult to injury. The multiplayer was terribly barren at release but is great now. It just disappoints me to see halo decline so much. I will give 343 the benefit of the doubt as they have improved the game a fair bit, but it’s still jarring.

La idea de contar la historia mediante dos grupos de personajes no resulta tan atractiva como pudiera parecer, quizás porque la impronta del Jefe Maestro eclipsa los eventos que afectan al grupo de soldados.

The warden was very forgettable and felt like more of an obstacle than a real boss. Cortana being the main villain felt really stupid to me and i think they should have just let her rest. I think the game would have been better if it expanded off of the ending of halo 4 and focused on the chief after losing Cortana. However, i think the Arbiter was still really cool and i liked the inclusion of blue team. The multiplayer was also really good despite the amount of packs you need to spend real money on. Hopefully Halo Infinite focuses on having a simple story and a more fun campaign.… Expand

But I don’t really like it a lot either.. the positives are pretty obvious, the visuals are gorgeous still & the score is still good, Halo never slacks in that department, although it is the least audibly interesting of the series in my opinion. The gameplay changes are something I’m torn on.. I like fast paced shooters, Doom & Wolfenstein are what got me into the FPS genre after all, but Halo never was a hyper fast shooter. There was always breathing room in fights & yeah you could say it’s been on this trajectory steadily with each game but idk, seems like they went all in on this fast paced upgrade to the shooting. I played all 5 main Halo games back to back so maybe I’m just getting whiplash from that, but the controls are changed almost entirely from previous entries & despite there being an option for the Halo 4 control scheme (which was already different from the trilogy, this new scheme is similar to it but not entirely the same) It was a big adjustment to say the least. It was a very fun experience don’t get me wrong, I had more fun playing Halo 5 then I did Halo 1 & 4 but at least those had more interesting stories to go alongside the slower and “tougher” gameplay. But fast paced shooting isn’t what I come to Halo for, which is one of the most disappointing aspects of Halo 5 for me. A problem I had with Halo 4 was a feeling of genericness which PERMEATES Halo 5 to its core, it feels more like every other futuristic shooter on the market right now (& in 2015 when it came out) & that’s not a good thing. Halo is a unique IP and I wish they didn’t try to conform to the norms despite some quality of life improvements. I appreciate how they tried to integrate Halo 5 into the series at large, something Halo 4 tried too hard to stray from in my opinion. Although they definitely nostalgia pandered at times, it’s an effort nonetheless. Any additional screen time for the Arbiter is welcome in this house. The story was decent (better than what i was expecting based off internet reactions) but took too long to get into motion & I struggle to remember anybody from the main squad you play 85% of the game as. Especially Locke, what a boring hollow shell of a character. Buck was memorable only because he’s just Nathan Fillion playing himself. Can’t remember the others. Master Chief steals the show as always and a certain AI returns with admittedly “I've seen this before” motives, but it was still cool to have them back. Speaking of the Chief, which “genius” at 343 thought it would be a good idea to unfairly split the game up 85/15 for the characters? And not make the team you play as interesting? Chief had like 3 missions in the 15 chapter campaign. THREE. Somebody needs to be fired for that. Some of the chapters are barely chapters too.. on 3 instances you walk back & forth talking to people then the chapter ends when you proceed. I hate hate HATE games that do this & count them towards the chapter list to further pad the game, Halo 4 having its prologue & epilogue as their own chapters was stupid as hell too but Halo 5 shouldn’t have continued that trend. Overall, Halo 5 is a fun time if you like FPS games, but if you’re a fan of the franchise you’ll end up disappointed, a trend I’m not enjoying with the 343 Halo games so far. Hopefully Infinite ends the new trilogy on a high note.… Expand

BUT, the war zone mode is blatantly pay to win and requires you to open loot boxes in order to gain vehicles, guns, etc. Thankfully, the loot boxes can be earned through gameplay, but it takes a while. This game is the the epitome of C+ as a grade, with Lack luster customization, awful story, great core gameplay, and a amazing multiplayer.

    This could’ve been one of the best, but if the story was better, and those pesky loot boxes were removed, it would be an 8-9.

    Halo 5 is a bland and repetitive game with uninteresting charaters and boring collectables.

The story of halo 5 isnt something to write home about, bland and predictable. Some positives of halo 5 is its gameplay and the multiplayer. The gameplay is fun and actually makes you feel like a spartan. Blasting throught walls and gravitiy slamming down on your enemies made you feel powerful. The multiplayer is also a great time aswell. Making me feel like im playing the old original halos. But the reward card system is crap, giving you lame rewards for your work. Also the multiplayer is very dry with only 3 gamemodes to play from. In the end halo 5 is not worth the 60 bucks it asked for at launch, but lucky theres gamepass so.… Expand

    The best gameplay the series has ever seen, coupled with the most disappointing narrative.

    The gameplay is extremely solid and the new movement options feel like a natural evolution for the series. The A.I. companions are pretty useless, but they do their job.
    The narrative is the weakest the series has ever seen. It felt all over the place and the sense of urgency and seriousness it was trying to transmit to the player fell flat on its head. The designs of some of the characters are very bad, particularly on the Elite enemies, who look extremely bulky, instead of the slick appearance they used to have, and on one of your companions throughout the story whose armor coating looks like bubble gum. The companions were all forgettable and it continues the trend of the player having to rely on outside material to fully grasp what's going on and who certain characters are. The dialogue is also tedious to sit through.

    By far, the most disappointing Halo experience that, if it weren't for its gameplay and graphics would have been a tedious drag. It feels like all the creativity from Halo 4 was somehow lost and traded for a more generic action movie plot.    … Expand

    Não ouve nenhuma melhoria do halo 4 para halo 5, a franquia parece estar totalmente esquecida, deveria ser dado na mão de empresas como nintendo, sony pois não há impacto ou novidades na série do game.

    Lo único malo a mi parecer de este juego es su guión de la historia, rompe por completo lo establecido en la franquicia y no es nada emocionante jugarla, en cambio, el multijugador y la movilidad de juego son excelentes.

    The campaign of this Halo game is very mediocre and fighting the sentinels was not really fun as there are only a few enemy types shooting the same gun. Taking out brutes gives enemies less variety. The art style is not good but I didn't hate it. The best mission is probably swords of sanghelious.

    My overall honest opinion is that Halo 5, and all of 343 halo games are extremely overhated. The story in Halo 5 was good, it was just executed poorly. But the overall gameplay experience was great. The mulitplayer was honestly amazing and I still find myself going back to it even today.

    The story is terrible, the new mechanics are just boring, and many of the new weapons and vehicles miss the mark. While the multiplayer is solid enough, 343 is simply incapable of creating a campaign close to being as good as the Bungie games.

The multiplayer was alright, but at the end of the day middle of the row for games in general, and very much made for only competitive players. Warzone Firefight had some good ideas of killing Covenant bosses, however it was basically ruinied by pay to win, because the progression system in this game was very bad. Getting a Gold Req pack took WAAAYY to long, and as a result, people were more incentivized to just buy req packs, so that they can get good stuff quicker, and some people do not have that money. Forge Mode and the addition of Custom Browser was really well done, and was the best part of this game. It really allowed for people to be very creative, and it was fantastic. And the best part was that you could search for these really cool maps and modes through custom browser. Overall, this game is extremely middle of the road. Depending on what you do, it can be either a fun time, or really boring, and feel like there was no incentive to play the game.… Expand

    Halo 5: Guardians is okay. Its campaign is rubbish, but the multiplayer is solid thanks to the foundation it’s built upon. Warzone is a really enjoyable experience, and while combat is still mostly about tossing grenades and hitting the melee button, the whole Requisition gimmick adds some much-needed flavor to proceedings.

    The latest Halo is a big deal only for hardcore Halo fans. For me the single player campaign was unbearably pompous and despite 1080p and 60 fps the visuals are not as breathtaking as they once were in Halo 4. The game builds a solid foundation for Halo 6, but it’s not one of those games you absolutely have to play. [13/2015, p.48]

    With a more accessible and engaging story and solid new designs for the Prometheans, Halo 5 is a major improvement over Halo 4. Warzone is a great addition to the multiplayer, though the mode seems to have some game balance issues. [Nov 2015]
