@stylest: enjoy your potatoes

@gottago42: You must be confused... my Black Ops 3 runs at 3840x2160 and 100fps+ at maximum settings with dips down to about 75... Halo 5 runs at potato resolution with Playstation 2 texture and shadow quality... Black Ops 3 FTW

can't wait to play this game for free and get back the $60 they robbed me of with the turdblossom that was ME3

@obsidian_born: "Its on one platform for one and Halo is not for everyone..."

WRONG... Halo 2 and 3 held CoD's numbers and were even MORE skill based than Halo 5.

"Halo takes serious skill and know how. It is not a twitch shooter like ... CS:GO"

CS:GO has the highest skill gap of ANY first person shooter. Halo cannot compete with it.

@wallacom: You missed my point. My point is only comparing Halo games to other Halo games. Popularity isn't an indicator of quality for apples vs oranges. But it is for apples vs apples.

Also, I doubt that CoD has CS:GO's numbers

@RSM-HQ: 8 is a generous score for the worst Halo game yet

@GarGx1: The 100K number is significant because it used to be the floor for Halo daily population YEARS after release. Halo 3 held populations of several hundred thousand. Then Halo 4 happened and dropped the population to 20K in less than a year. Halo 5 will almost certainly be the same.

So calling this the best Halo multiplayer ever is ridiculous.

@kyelo: When the series used to have the numbers (Halo 2, Halo 3, Reach), and the previous game drove away 90%+ of those numbers (Halo 4), then yeah, numbers can be used to represent quality of one installment of the series vs another.

" This is the best shape Halo multiplayer has ever taken."

No, that would be either Halo 2 or 3. When Halo 5 holds a 100k+ daily playerbase over a year out from release, then *maybe* you can make this statement.

For anyone on PC not in the alpha for this, check out the new Unreal Tournament Alpha. It's already a ton of fun if you like arena shooters on PC.
