By derpface123 Go To PostMaybe the map designers made them stairs specifically so that you couldn't bounce grenades off of them.
I still find this dubious. The best halo maps in the past allowed for grenades to be tossed to higher locations in order to keep the camping down or at least force an actual fight of territory. The maps where people could just camp up top without any pressure or consequences just made for a race to the top with stagnant play there after.
Stairways do just act as ramps, they use the same collision boxes.
At least that's how they always have done in the past.

By Hypertrooper Go To PostHe can be a Forerunner called Bonestellar.
*queues the funky 70s porn music intro*
"I hid seeds from the Didact..."
Calling him Bornstellar and just mentioning him as the "successor" or having been "mentored" by the Didact would be enough for the game itself, I think.
That being said, I don't see Bornstellar being wholly protagonistic like we'd expect - I have a feeling he'll be more of an existentially gray character, having been gone hundreds of thousands of years. If he encountered Blue Team I could see a scene mirroring the Didact reveal where he initially immobilizes them via constraint field, just without the force-choking and gives himself a minute to explain he's on their side.

About 10 minutes from the time of my post, we will be SUB-70 DAYS UNTIL HALO 5!
...so... 69 days...
...I guess I've got Destiny to play.
I can't believe H5 is coming out a month after I go to Uni...
I'm just not gunna have the time to play :(
That said, I got into my first choice Uni so that's fucking awesome.

By db Go To PostWho cares how maps look as long as they're functional and balanced. Ugh.
At least for the forge templates, I expect some variety in the creation aspect for enviroments. Reach, 4 had awful environment settings that ultimately just led to boring floating maps.

Not going to waste my time trying to play Halo 2 on Legendary when the game freezes at certain points for me causing loss of progress. Halo legendary is already infuriating enough without the game's brokenness getting in the way.
By jem Go To PostThat said, I got into my first choice Uni so that's fucking awesome.Where are you going for uni anyway?
By Storm Go To PostWhere are you going for uni anyway?University of Bath to study physics.
None of you American lot will have heard of it I imagine. It's fairly new but it's one of the top 5 Unis in the UK so I'm happy.
I did go to interview at Oxford but managed to fuck them up. I'm not sure I would have wanted to go anyway. Far too much work involved for me.

Physics? You'll be pulling off a consistent Hail Mary before the end of the first semester.
For those who are getting the Elite controller, Frankie kindly replied to a message asking about specific Halo stuff regarding it:
Intriguing!
Should I totally not get the Elite pad and wait for a Halo version? I'm halo nerd enough to do that.
If you can shed any light dude, it'd be appreciated.
Just presets and potentially accessories in the vein of the Forza ones. But we're not limited to aesthetics.
Intriguing!
so cobie smoulders is doing voicework for the games, too? The only takeaway I got from that Warzone footage.
nice.

By Trey Go To Postwho is doing the Halo 5 OT?Do we really need one on this site? NeoGAF is gonna have one, and I feel like we'll already be split well enough between two sites, let alone two sites and multiple threads.

I concur, just continue this halo OT.

I hope my NeoGAF account is approved before Halo 5 comes out... I've been waiting for a while now.

I understand that. But also understand that slaent itself is fully autonomous and an individual site apart from GAF, no matter how much overlap there is currently. While the community itself is all over the place and it will be annoying to keep up with multiple threads, from the perspective of slaent, it makes sense to have an OT for one of the biggest releases of the year.
If it dies, it dies, but it should be made.

Honestly I don't think the rankings are all that important. I think Bath was actually ranked lowest for physics in the offers I had.
Still, thursday was a very good day.

Is there enough interest on the rest of Slaent to really warrant it though?
This place is basically going to be 90% Halo 5 when it releases anyway.

Seems pretty much everyone interested in Halo here is hanging out in this thread. Seeing as how we started it and there wasn't anything Halo beforehand.
If it dies, it dies, but it should be made.
GAF will have one if you need your OT fix.
