HaloFest 2014 and the launch of the Master Chief Collection is bringing tons of new announcements with Halo 5 multiplayer details and other tidbits to know about the release of 343i’s continuation of the series.

Every weapon zooms, but the devs ensure that it won’t alter the style of game too much. You won’t need to aim down the sights consistently to remain competitive.

Many fans have disagreed on whether sprinting fits into the Halo games as well, but 343i looks to balance that as well with sprinting now tied to your shields. In order for your shields to recharge you must move at the normal pace.

The devs clearly are trying to find that perfect balance to gameplay to keep such an acclaimed series on good terms with fans.

The first few episodes of nightfall will be revealed tonight and evidently Agent Locke and his story will be keyed on. Check it out on twitch.tv/halo and check out our own stream at twitch.tv/zombie_xsp

More details to come later.
