Spartan-104 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 I think spartan ops could have been alot better. Not the story, but the gameplay itself. It was kind of repetitive, as things got reused, you were told clear this out, and press this button, and so on. I overall found it much less awesome than the campaign. Anyway I'd like to see what everone else thinks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGodfatherS117 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I agree. This is why I stopped playing Spartan ops a long time ago. I was disappointed by the repetition of the same objectives in all missions. I would like to see some changes about Spartan ops in the future.

Cooliest Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 It just felt like an extension to the campaign so I never found it fun. Peole at first were only using it to boost, but now I never see anyone playing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DracoAvian Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 I actually had quite a blast for the first few and last few episodes. There were some in the middle there that didn't do much of anything for me... I had an absolute blast from the battle on infinity to the resolution of season 1. There was plenty of things I feel could have been done better. 1. Not all buttons are created equal. Some had animations, some just clicked or beeped, and some took a progress bar to complete. It bothered me more than it should have... But I think they had a chance to remove some 'video gamey' elements by actually seeing your spartan unlock doors, press buttons, type commands, punch detonators, or yada-yada. More stuff with hands! Also, that first person assassination in the prison break mission was sick. 2. Some enemies had supernaturally powerful guns. Chiefly among them were Elite Generals with Fuel Rods in the middle missions. Those things didn't add difficulty or challenge worth playing against multiple times. I got by a few sections by throwing my unlimited bodies on top of them and eventually crushing them under the combined under the combined weight of my corpses. 3. Unlimited lives removed any challenge at all. I would have liked to see some sort of system to support 'staying alive.' An easy fix would have been to allow players to set skulls. An Iron run through the first mission would have been a blast. Promote teamwork, yo! There were plenty of great things though. 1. I loved the story progression. Some people say meh, but I really enjoyed exploring the lives of other spartans and other characters. Seeing Halsey in a leading role was enough to get me fan-boying and rereading the books again. 2. I loved getting to pit "My Spartan" against Covenant and Promethians. I think Reach was my favorite game simply because I got to play a superhuman version of myself in every mode. 3. Some of those missions were quite cinematic in the action. I particularly loved taking the Scorpion up the hill, fighting beneath the Covenant ship as another Spartan team boarded and destroyed it, and fleeing the excavation site while gravity was super wonky. /rant All said and done, I'd absolutely love to see a Season 2 in Halo 5. It was splendid. And I really want to hear more backstory from Majestic. Grant intrigues me. I'd love to see more from the scottish spitfire.

Mothy Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 They should make it a small little continuation of the campaign. Like a side mission but it also ties in with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
