343 Industries has recently released photos of Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta on its official website. They have also included some of the changes that gamers would want to once the full game is officially released to the public.
In 343's official website, the three-week beta test had about a million players and had around 20 million matches. Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta has also recorded more than 180 million Spartan frags, 6 million of which are by sniper rifle that is said to be the players' weapon of choice.
Because of the figures drawn from the test, along with the gamers' feedbacks from the Halo community, 343 Industries were able to come up with a set of enhancements to be included in the game. For instance, Spartans get faster base movement, faster sidesteps, Lower sprint speed, as well as modified controls.
For the weapons, sniper rifles have improved scope performance, automatic weapons have lower bonuses in Smart-Link and with headshots, grenade detonation in mi-air has been removed, and the SPNKr Rocket Launcher has been restored.
Executive producer Josh Holmes wrote about further bug fixes as well as additional improvements reported by the Halo team.
He said, "Everything from weapon placements on maps, to lighting improvements, to rule tweaks in game modes and modifications to the motion tracker to encourage more movement at higher levels of play."
Halo 5: Guardians is scheduled for a fall 2015 release. Until then, players who still can't access the Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta, they can enjoy by trying to get the rarest achievement in the game, which is the Killpocalypse.
While it's still on its beta stage, Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta is still undergoing major changes, especially when it comes to the multiplayer experience and balance. Thanks to some recent leaks, it looks like fans may be getting their hands on the game as early as August of this year.
