By derpface123 Go To PostGoddamnit, people are saying how shitty Halo 5's sound effects are because IGN's video has shitty audio. Not to mention the 30fps. Poorly recorded videos like this on big channels like IGN could have a negative impact on the game's success if there are too many of them…
You're overreacting. The vast majority of Halo's playerbase will not see this video.
You're right. It just pains me to see a big channel like IGN put up a badly made video that could give people the wrong impression.
Need that Halo 5 IGN First.

Speaking of IGN... they need to announce IGN First for this month so I know whether to be hyped or massively disappointed.
Last month their IGN First was Scalebound and they announced it on August 3rd. So in a few days we should know if September's is Halo 5.
Ryan McCaffrey is tied to the IGN First coverage tightly and he is such a Halo fan he thought Halo 4 was a 9.8/10, so there's a solid chance it's Halo.

I kinda doubt it'll be September's, almost seems more likely that it'd be October's considering how far into the month it releases.
Or if it's even an IGN first at all...
EDIT: Actually, it would make sense for it to be, that way they can announce Forge like they did with IGN and the MCC last year.

We won't know until the 8th this month. Tweeted Ryan and he said they won't announce until the 8th.
Update:
Xbox Support says we need to play another MP game and not get reported for our rep to go up. Well jokes on me because the only other MP game I have is the MCC and I just tried to get into a game across a handful of playlists with no success.
So I'm completely hosed.

By belushy Go To PostWe won't know until the 8th this month. Tweeted Ryan and he said they won't announce until the 8th.They usually release the IGN first, on the first mo nay of the month. And since Monday is labor day. They're doing it on Tuesday.
I dont think gameplay really reflects the way the actual spartans fight. Especially when I think of my aim, Spartans almost never miss a shot, I do. Unless I was Ninja (who's aim probably does reflect the actual aim of a spartan), I'll be missing very simple headshots on crawlers every so often.
The actual cinematic although seemed a bit crazy, seems very plausible. Hectic 3 way battle and their entrance was a shock. People should try speed running Halo and you'll see the way they run is very similar (I assume a lot of the people they actually hit didn't necessarily die).

Yeah that is what he said.
Stinkles being quiet on this topic and the fact that Ryan knows the exact day when they are revealing IGN First is basically confirmation that Halo 5 is the September IGN First game.
Basically.

Unless I was Ninja (who's aim probably does reflect the actual aim of a spartan), I'll be missing very simple headshots on crawlers every so often.Yeah in Halo "reality" a Spartan II would mop up a covenant squad without breaking a sweat, unless they are heavily outnumbered like Six did during his/her final stand. The feat in the CG happened a couple of times in other Halo fictions, it is just for gameplay reasons in the game what we got is basically a ODST level scrub lol.

No ulterior motives there. Literally they do IGN F 1st Monday. And since 1st Monday is holiday, next available day is Tuesday. SoP for something like this.

Even Noble Six defended for up to a week in the lore before he succumbed.

I was joking, I just really hope it's Halo 5 (as we all do).
What does SoP stand for?

By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostAre we gonna keep the 20000 post tradition and start a new OT?SoP ;)
By Mix Go To PostSoP ;)Indeed.
By derpface123 Go To PostyWall of Shame is just a list of the top 10-15 posters in the thread.
Don't worry, I'll be there too.
Are there even more than 15 people who come here with any regularity? Pretty sure we'll all be here, it's just the order that will be interesting to see.
How do we see how close we are to 20,000 posts?

We can't but we know that each page is 50 posts, and we're 172 pages in so we're about 58% of the way there.
By Mix Go To PostWe can't but we know that each page is 50 posts, and we're 172 pages in so we're about 58% of the way there.Math.
We have over 8600 posts. Roughly 43% of the way to 20k. So, no i dont think we will hit 20k upon release.
By Invert Go To PostWe have over 8600 posts. Roughly 43% of the way to 20k. So, no i dont think we will hit 20k upon release.20k posts is 400 pages. So math again. A
If Ryan reviews it I bet you he'll underscore it to avoid any hate again like with Halo 4. Just to fit in and get some respect again :P
By Ragnarok Flames Go To Post20k posts is 400 pages. So math again. A
Right, 172 x 50 = 8600 8600 divided by 20,000 =.43
By Mix Go To Postyeah, I rounded up to 175/300 and tried to give that percentage instead lol
Lol it happens man.
So for a special topics / webdev graphic design course I showed my instructor ReclaimerHub. She's familiar with what Squarespace can for you and she was still impressed. Probably the quantum fuckery I'm pulling with the CSS. #weinthere
She also knows that Halo Wars 2 is now a thing, provided that's up her alley. Thanks, ReclaimerHub!

How would underscoring it help him avoid hate? If anything I'd say over scoring it would get him more hate.

i don't think you used your brain when you typed that post. it's okay, a lot of my posts are brainless. but let's be real here.
"how would underscoring it help it avoid hate? if anything i'd say over scoring it would get him more hate."
you literally just explained why underscoring it would help him avoid hate. do you disagree or agree with the statement VinFTW made? i am confused.
basically ryan mcCoffrey rated halo 4 a 9.8 out of 10 and got tons of shit for it because halo 4 was by no means that good. if he under-scores halo 5, he might get some credibility back since he didn't just blindly give the game an amazing score.
After watching it again I'm starting to feel it a bit more. Honestly the worst part of the cutscene for me now is the fairly cliché ending where they all jump in unison.
The music is fantastic though.
