Preview Halo 5: Guardians

Return to the main shooter Microsoft's Xbox One: Master with Chifom, cooperative for four people and as always epic storyline

Five years ago, the studio Bungie finally broke with Halo - TV series, which became one of the most important shooters of last generation - and started working on Destiny. Last year, Destiny finally came out and made a shooter about the same as that once Halo: changed them forever. Now she tries to imitate every second: co-op for four players will be the main mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 and, surprisingly, Halo 5: Guardians.
Yes, the fifth part of Halo, which involved 343 Industries (Halo 4 authors) is now similar to the Destiny. And this, too, can find its advantages. While Destiny, despite the scale and, uh, "meaning the genre" it was a game with a wacky plot and with only one kind of motivation - just ten exactly the same level, to open new armor red. Sooner or later, it bothers.

With Halo 5, all very different. The universe of the series is so steep that could, like "Star Wars", to continue to exist without the people who invented it. What is actually happening. But Master Chefoo not necessarily remove the helmet to the players. After all, the main character of the series unmistakable even voice. Says Chief rare, but when it does it - all others listen attentively. And judging by a short presentation on the Gamescom, 343 Industries managed to do what fans love Halo.

In Germany, the author shows the level of covenants on a spaceship (these are lizard-like aliens), where the Chief was operating with three subordinates Spartans. Can manage live players, or artificial intelligence - essentially it does not change. The important thing is that now the central characters never will be alone in the cosmos one: friends will always be there.

"Characters" - this is not a reservation. The main characters, in the second part, there will be two. Master Chefoo intercept the plot will go a Spartan named Locke, who will have their own team of assistants. At Gamescom show a small example of interaction with them: simple commands Spartans can ask posterech any door, to circumvent the enemy or take special weapons such as the shotgun.
He's here, in contrast to the previous parts of Halo, just gorgeous. Great looks and sounds great - as other things, and all the rest of the weapons. This is another slap in the side of Destiny, which at times was a useless gun caught. And if some enemy is not particularly want to die, you can overtake crushing jump with energy rocket backpack. Any battle in Halo, as always, you can replay the infinite number of times - and each time it will be completely different. Basically, it all worked perfectly in the first game, but with two or three friends to become even more fun.

Now Halo - it's not just a good story and a single long-running multiplayer. This is a game that can and should take place in co-op. Along this route are many action-packed blockbusters, but Halo is before them another advantage - a recognizable and powerful universe with different characters, weapons, and design. It is difficult to say whether it will be enough of a reason to give up and buy a Xbox One, but Halo fans have lined up.
