By AllIsOneIsNone Go To PostDid they post a bunch of stuff immediately when the embargo ended on the campaign stuff? I didn't see it until the morning. I'm kinda in the same boat…arena just excites me too much, and I'm east coast. I'm being shitty to my future self right now.
Hoping at least someone releases something right at 3 am (est) Greenskull seems to be doing that. Might have to wait for big sites like Destructoid and IGN though

I guess I am just old and don't understand the kids.
One has to laugh how violent head exploding GIFs are completely allowed but some mild language text leads to a ban.
Cool, may as well wait it out. Let's bet on what site plays the worst. Gamespot would be the easy call, but they may have wised up after the whole internet (aka HaloGAF) was laughing at them for that Fathom gameplay. I'm still going with gamespot.

Anyone have experience pre-ordering digital games on New Egg? Halo 5 is up for $49.99 (via promo code GUARDIAN5) but it's not worth it if I can't get it right at midnight on the 27th.

Never personally used them, but Newegg has always been on the up and up.
Hey guys remember when Neogaf didn't suck and we would juck about swamp huts and butts?
Welcome to the place where you won't get banned for hurting someone's feelings. Be gentle.
Now if we are talking about symbolism like with the Christian biblical junk floatin all over the place, yeah. That shit meant dick that Miyazaki himself confirmed to be put in the show because it "looked cool" lol
I would especially recommend checking out the Evangelion movies and Gurren Lagann.

By Fahzgoolin Go To PostEvangelion-the show confirmed to be random and meaningless by the creator, yet everyone thinks it's genius, deep, symbolic, and profoundly philosophical.The show itself held meaning. It was a massive deconstruction of many tropes from anime and the mecha genre in general.
Lol

Overnight, on September 25th, players who have pre-ordered Halo 5: Guardians through the Xbox One will have noticed their game size jump from roughly 100MB to 46.19GB
By Sikamikanico Go To PostWhat if…Warzone was really good fun?are you saying you know something mate? ;)
Unrelated, but I sent you another DM on GAF.
just confirmed with EBGames Australia is not getting the collectors edition on the 20th wtf is this fucking bullshit man

By kittens Go To PostArena on The Rig : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOj0M5naC_gThat looks like a pretty solid map. Lots of great ground pound plays.
Graphics don't seem to be a huge jump from the Beta. Looks a bit sharper for sure, but I wouldn't call this game a looker multiplayer wise. Performance more than makes up for it and I'm sure I'll forget as soon as I start playing, though. Gameplay looks great as usual too.

It does say "play on the 27th" but how that is accomplished is not stated. Also, negative 50 points to the customer asking on NEWEGG if Halo 5 comes on the 360...face palm.
By belushy Go To PostNew Breakout map Altitude. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qp5bZt7H0QSo now breakout is also single flag ctf as an alternate way to win?
I think primary and secondary color changing is confirmed now, pretty much. (for forge)
And if halo 5 forge is capable of making only maps that look like this and the beta breakout maps I'd still be happy. They look great.
Breakout looks kinda boring to me tbh. I'd rather play SWAT or normal CTF. The only time it seems really exciting is when one team is down to a single player.

If we had the Brute Shot, the "Troy" game variant could be re-created from Halo 2. And why couldn't we see the game from the Blue team's vantage point? I wanted to see what colors were used and how for the opposite side of the map.
By kittens Go To PostBreakout looks kinda boring to me tbh. I'd rather play SWAT or normal CTF. The only time it seems really exciting is when one team is down to a single player.
It's kinda boring to watch, but so long as it's not both team just pot shooting each other across the map, playing it is a lot of fun.
Wowwowowowoowoww. THE BREAKOUT MAP LOOKS AMAZING I HOPE WE CAN PLAY IT IN STANDARD ARENA TOO SORRY FOR THE CAPS.
Also Rig is pretty rad too. Wish he used those secret paths we saw in the B-Roll footage.. But still. Fantastic vids all around....which unfortunately means as much as I fought against the idea, I ended up preordering, because these vids + newegg deal = hype explosion. I need this game now.
I still don't get what the Pulse/Promethean Grenades do though, but they look much more powerful than they did in Halo 4.
The consistency and reasoning regarding bans on gaf have become a joke; any "controversial" topic will be a graveyard despite what is actually being said in the posts. They will find a reason to ban users, even if its one seemingly inconsequential use of a phrase that's a reference to a movie and used post ironically. I really don't want to apply Occam's Razor here, but it just feels like some mods are on a power trip, especially within the past year.

Absolutely adore the gameplay I'm seeing...but...boy do the graphics look rough. Those bad textures are distracting with shadow pop-in, bad aliasing, and the occasional LOD problems. It's so disappointing the graphics are scaled back that much just to maintain 60fps. However, ultimately it looks so much fun that I know it's worth it.

Really love that return flag to score and that the flagnum are back and I must say, spotting the flag carrier seems to be a great addition (time will tell).

In dark areas of some Forge canvases like the indoor space on Halo 4's Erosion and Halo Reach's Coliseum, players could hide in the shadows. It looks like you can spot players clearly across the length of the Breakout Arena.

Game looks so rad
EDIT:
LOL at the massive derp taking the enemies flag back to their base on RUL's video. *FACEPALM*
Remember Crossfire from the beta? It got a little touch up since we last saw her: https://youtu.be/E9d6AHiVoHk?t=504

It looks like (I might be wrong) those flood lights play a huge part in making the arena bright. And they look like forge pieces, seeing as they're located in different areas on different breakout maps, which gives me a lot of excitement for forge.
By Fahzgoolin Go To PostFlagnum actually looks awesome now. Gawwwd this game looks hot.
Wait until you guys get used flag boost juggling
Feels and looks amazing

EDIT:
I wonder if Breakout would fair better with 5v5 like CSGO. Really digging Breakout now and the new maps look great.
From the looks of things.... ;) The Promethean grenades form a barrier, and it's damned effective, stay in it too long, and you will disintegrate. At least that's how it..er...looks.
Said it before and will say it again, this will be the greatest Halo to date in terms of competitiveness+excitement. It will be a hit compared to all of the other halos in terms of Esports viewership. Strangely, since the beta, Halo 5 has reminded me of fighting games somehow..
Why u gotta do this to us tho :(

Oh man, Altitude is gonna be such a shitshow. BRs and a damn Hydra? In breakout?
Oy vey
Oooh, I like the look of that Buccaneer helmet. Simple, but nice.

I saw the Security helmet in the customization video. Looks like a combination of the Halo 3 and Halo Reach versions. Got the same bottom part of the helmet like Reach but with a considerably larger bug eye visor than Reach did.
Good.
