So the way the image in Josh's blog detailed emblems, it seems as though they aren't on-armor at all anymore, instead only on the player's "card". Anybody have any confirmation on this?
By YourExWife Go To PostOther favorites after listening a couple times though:
Self Esteem
Sports Go Sports
The Loophole (also GOAT)
Frozen Lullaby
The BJ Song
I had heard most of these before, either on their youtube or their IFC tv show, but some of the lyrics will probably make me smile/laugh indefinitely.
It will help fill the Flight of the Conchords shaped hole in my soul.

They've been trying to do away with that feature since Reach, where it gets less and less prominent on your armor with each interation. I'd like to see a feature where you can custom place, scale and rotate an emblem anywhere on the armor.

Their previous albums are fuckin' great too if you have any laughter left.

Now that's how you introduce a new feature. Man, Microsoft is killing it with the promotion for this

By Poodlestrike Go To PostWe Hunting the Truth now, B O Y Z.Halo good times.
Fuck it seems like Halo 5 is going to have more loot than Destiny. All that stuff looks so goddamn good I'm going to be playing a ton of Warzone even if it sucks (I doubt it will).

That wraith tho
Great video haha. Really explains it in a straightforward fashion.
Also looks like the wraith has been hitting the gym!
Looking at it the Wraith doesn't seem as egregiously redesigned as we expected - it's just slimmed down the profile a bit and removed the rear "fin" things. That being said, the new design definitely seems more susceptible to overturning, as seen with Tanaka ground-pounding one at an angle to flip it over in the opening cutscene.
By AllIsOneIsNone Go To PostThey did that in Halo 4 too, and I thought most of the weapons sounded terrible. You can record sounds but know how to equalize or add effects to it properly. Halo 4's assault rifle, DMR and sniper all sound like a muted thump, just not very satisfying. Halo 5 is a huge improvement, but as a stickler for audio a couple things still bug me. I actually like the new shield bleeps sounds though, which is funny because that's what most people are complaining about in regards to H5's sound.
By AllIsOneIsNone Go To PostIf anyone is interested in a comparison:
Halo 2 Anniversary:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx1ceLUq8AA
Halo Reach vs. Halo 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLAasUgoGYk
Halo 4 vs. Halo 5 Beta (there was a separate Halo 5 Beta one but I think the quality is better here):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAERGkTjSoA
Seriously though After watching the videos How can anyone think Halo 5's sound design is bad. SMH. the only Audio that can be considered "muffled" is the Pistol Everything else has a much better "punch" to the sound as well as sounding much more realistic. Listen to them side by side and you can clearly tell this. I do agree they pistol sounds a bit "Lazer gunish" for my taste. But it does seem they have at least slightly tweaked the sound since the beta
Since MC has trashed so many of their Wraiths, they had to go back to the drawing board lol. This might be a step sideways in survivability though...
Generic tank is generic. It looks nothing like the Scorpion. (neither the original tank nor the bug)
As for the Wraith with its wings replaced by, curved arms? All I picture every time i see those new 'arms' is:

You can see a quick silhouette of the tank at the start of the Req video and it looks a bit better.

Hopefully it'll look better from another angle but I agree. That looks nothing like a scorpion. Nothing there really makes me think Halo. If I didn't know it was from 5 I would easily mistake it for some other game like Ultimate Battle Tanks: The turtling. Keep in mind I'm not saying the design is bad. Just that it doesn't look like what it's supposed to even be.
I can't unsee that.
By Rokklaggio Go To PostThey really need to make it to where we can bet on REQ cards.If they were just won in-game, then I'd think it'd be more feasible to do so, but with players being able to purchase with real-world $, it'd quickly turn from gaming fun to full-on gambling.
I think they're smart to stay away from that, at least while purchasing is permitted.
Years of lore debates over the Scorpion's design have conditioned me into liking modern battle tank designs.

By RedSparrows Go To PostLooks more like a Scorpion than a MBT to me. But what do I know.B-b-but the Scorpion IS a Main Battle Tank!

By -Ryn Go To PostThat's a debate I was never even aware of. Though I guess debating the feasibility of a sci Fi anything is par for the course.General consensus is that the Scorpion pales in comparison to an M1 Abrams in armor, shape, firepower, and mobility. Only advantage the Scorpion has is its automatic reloading system, which, if gameplay is anything to go by, a well-trained tank crew could match in speed.
Though I personally contend with the armor aspect as the Scorpion's armor has never been described or elaborated on in great detail.

I have a feeling an Abrams would probably boil into mush if it even got close to a Wraith mortar.

So is Halo 5 gonna have some major religious/social/cultural controversy like Dead Space's Unitology?
Lol I'm weirded out by this.
From GAF...
"Would be cool if you introduce forge 1.0 at launch and then release a version 2.0 a year later that has taken community feedback. Forge 2.0 and a pool of great community maps would be a nice news item!
Kind of like what Bungie has done with Destiny."
Alternatively, just make it good in the first place so no 2.0 super update is necessary.

They used the leaked 15 minutes of music from a while back in that unboxing video.
Also in the background we can see the Halo 5 main menu screen, which shows the Infinity in space with some ships flying toward it. Same background we saw in the menu leak.

By Mdot Go To PostNot sure if this has been answered already, but is there going to be a pre-load for H5?
Yep. It's the reason the CE and console bundle ship a week early; to let you plug in the digital game code before launch.

They already got us conditioned to expect and enjoy titles that launch with incomplete features so they can sell us the rest of the game later. It's fucking pathetic how quick and easy it was.
I always find myself wanting to play The Silent Cartographer in CE. I hope there are levels that really stick with you like that in Halo 5.
Edit:
Geez... Cortana sounds so much better in CE/2.

Yes. You will be able to download the digital version of Halo 5 on October 20th.
Double posting because this is actually significant (as long as your name isn't Ragnarok Flames):

So Ready Up Live will have an exclusive video showing armor customization and REQ openings on their channel in a few days. Neat.

By jem Go To PostThis tank model looks a bit… Meh.I kinda prefer it, honestly. The Scorpion has always been kinda goofy lookin'. Not to mention absolutely abysmally designed, as far as tanks go. Maybe if it was supposed to be something more mobile, but as an MBT? Nah, son. New design looks much sturdier.
It's not the Grizzly, but it'll do.
By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostHey. I didn't lose the bet ;)
The bet was only to keep it until Tuesday, so I think I'm good to change it now. Blue team es numero uno.
