You know what Rag, I will be right there with you and legit furious if 343 thinks Warzone is ample replacement for ALL the classic Halo fun modes.
343 better recognize the importance of Infection, Oddball, Fiesta, Snipers, Swords, Hammers... hell, EVERY fun mode we have all enjoyed at least once in our history of playing Halo.
And they better not say "go play MCC" if we ask why those gamemodes aren't in Halo 5 (if they end up not being in Halo 5).
I don't want to have to keep MCC on my hard drive for any reason.
By Mix Go To PostBam! BGE's interview with Josh Holmes is live:Nice!

I like the idea of a Weekend Social playlist.
edit: Was it known before that customs will be on dedis as well?
"Both the Mark IV and Mark V helmets will be available through the REQ system"
Well shit.
I guess it just wasn't in the build at the event! Important to note that that build appeared to be from September 10th from what I saw, so it seems totally plausible that there are a few additions since then.

By derpface123 Go To PostYou know what Rag, I will be right there with you and legit furious if 343 thinks Warzone is ample replacement for ALL the classic Halo fun modes.Don't worry, there will be a SINGLE weekend rotating playlist for all of the party gametypes. And in Some interview Josh basically told us to play custom games if we want non-arena non-warzone games.

So yeah, Sprint trailer pulls a Halo 4 with Ending spoilers lmao in the script. Unless they are fucking with us.
343 coming through big time with Halo 5. So far so good, let's hope launch goes smoothly.
CE Pistol and Mk.V baby! Mk.IV too, can't wait. 343 do what Bungdon't.

To be honest I don't really care much about playlists so long as voting is on point and there's no stupid ass achievements that render playing the game an absolute chore.

Got some bad news for ya
By ViewtifulJC Go To PostGot some bad news for ya
LOL
Halo 5 has no voting or veto system. It picks a map and that's what you'll play.
Every potential system they could choose would have its pros and cons, but in the end this is what they went with.

By db Go To PostOh no. Gimme the news…
You don't vote any more. No veto on arena. You play what you're given.
(unless, in hindsight, you mean the community voting for playlists for the weekend)
well, considering that there are 14 Arena maps at launch, there has to be more than just 3 good ones
Yesssssssss.

By Granadier Go To PostSo long as it prevents AR starts on Snowbound from happening, I'm all for votes leaving.That is something that should be fixed on their end by common sense but whatever, multiplayer modes/map implementations in Halo have always left a lot to be desired.

They've gotta be fucking with us.
i regret looking
By Mix Go To Postwell, considering that there are 14 Arena maps at launch, there has to be more than just 3 good ones
are we not including Breakout in that map loadout
8 maps in the beta, and none of them were shit.
I'd put my money on few, if any, maps being duds this time around. The in-house pro team probably helps tune them much more effectively.

I really don't think Halo 5 has preloaded yet. Someone who claims it is, delete it from your Xbox and then reinstall and see if it takes hours. We need you to do this to confirm the game has gone gold. Take one for the team, fellas!
I see the limiting of options in what you can play in Multi as just a step backward. It legit bothers me that shit I played on PC over a decade ago still has the upperhand with multiplayer options and customization.
By thornXBL Go To PostThey've gotta be fucking with us.

Hmmm. If it's in the trailer that means it'll be in one of the episodes... I'll probably need to avoid that episode or section of it anyway... Unless they are just trolling, given how they oopsied that with Halo 4 lol.

Why should/would someone want to do this? Yes let's just have someone tax their monthly bandwidth unnecessarily to appease Doubting Thomas.
By thornXBL Go To PostThey've gotta be fucking with us.how did you pull anything off of that? I can't fucking see it lol

Defs agreed. There will always be maps that are the favourites but I can't see them giving us something like SMG starts on Colossus.
Yeah Trolling seems entirely possible, or maybe they just really don't think people are viewing their Vidocs in better than potato quality :)
Yeah I think the major benefit is that it creates a high-risk, high-reward setup where the team can make themselves sitting ducks on the hill in a bid to earn back time.
By thornXBL Go To PostPersonally, and this goes for HMCC too, I wish that they used KOTH gametypes where you gained additional time for each teammate in the hill.
You extend the time-to-win accordingly so games don't end lightning quick, but it makes the games more fun IMO. Big Team KOTH would be better with it too.

If you are in a position where that is an issue, obviously don't do it. But if the game really has preloaded and they didn't just update it to show how big the game is (which news sites already reported on), then I'm sure one person here wouldn't mind doing it. I did say 'take one for the team'.
It has got to be a ruse.
We are first class passengers on the ONI ruse cruise.
They wouldn't fuck that up again after it really happened with H4, right? don't answer that
I don't think you'll be exposed to the spoiler by merely watching S3 of the Sprint. It takes pausing frames and nigh CSI-level enhancing to make it out.

We need you to do this to confirm the game has gone gold. Take one for the team, fellas!Nope, it's not pre-loaded. Just purchased it and the install took 30 seconds. It's all preliminary data.
Dashboard says 46.2GB though under "Manage Game". It's probably just code telling the Xbox how much the game will end up using.
By ViewtifulJC Go To Postthese spoilers…
time for all racists to get on-board #TeamLocke
Lolll
I've been under the assumption that Halo 5 is going to end with most if not everyone thinking MC is dead, but meanwhile he is truly AWOL/trapped on some Reclaimer business.

Thanks for the confirmation. It will definitely go gold pretty soon though, Sikamikanico will be getting dat review copy.
By GringoSuave89 Go To PostWait, the Sprint trailer pulled a Halo 4 styled spoiler? For real?
Either it did, or it's an intentional bait to misdirect us
Thanks for the kind words about the interview folks - the run up to launch is going to have us all drooling. DROOLING I tells ya!

You will regret it.

I'll probably stay off neogaf also. I generally go dark before Halo titles come out- looks like I'll need to go super dark for this one.
I'm going to give 343 the benefit of the doubt and assume they planted that there and it's not as significant as it appears to be.
If they made the same mistake twice though, fool me once....
