: The SRS99 looks very much like the Denel NTW-20 sniper rifle while the MA5 is
: fairly reminiscent of the Fabrique Nationale F2000 and the Heckler &
: Koch XM29. The Vulcan cannon mounted on every Warthog looks like every
: other chain gun out there with the exception of its armor plate. The
: anti-aircraft emplacements at the Sabre base were pretty much just lifted
: out of the real world with a UNSC eagle slapped on the side.

: Pretty futuristic.

Yeah I get it, Halo has always had weapons and vehicles that were based on IRL weapons and vehicles. but with Bungie they wern't soo obnoxious with it, yeah they told us they were basing a weapon on so and so but never tried to blatantly C/P it and but a fresh cover of "future paint" over it like were getting here they had a way to make it unique looking and fit into the universe.

This reskin though? it doesn't fit Halo nor do allot of the weapon designs (sans AR) that Halo 5 is doing and while I'm tolerating most of it the Rocket Launcher is something that I can't just let go quietly.

: The thing with Halo is that it has really never ever been a generic war
: shooter despite the equipment we can use or merely see, some of which is
: actually considerably low-tech compared to technology in-use today, but
: most of which is derived very much from contemporary designs.

Your right because its always been faithful to its true setting, future technology and alien tech. and with that its made it stand out but Halo 5 is not giving me a good feeling about how much longer its going to be standing out and more fitting into the regular mold every other war shooter follows.

: Congratulations to the internet people of NeoGAF. :)
