Yeah I'm willing to say I overreacted. Breakout is still the least fun I've had with Halo 5. They'll probably shuffle maps around in each playlist at a frequent rate.
Still is dumb that there's no mythic variants in custom games, though I suppose that makes somewhat sense given that forge doesn't exist yet.
I just need the game in my hands, now.

By FUNKNØWN iXi Go To PostFirst poll needs a "None" option, and I voted Fathom for the second, but I like all the maps we've seen.
So you're just not going to spend your points at all? You're just going to use Recruit forever and never spend the points you earn on REQ packs? Whatever floats your boat I guess.
By J-Twelve Go To PostI just caught up on last night's episode of SHIELD. Mack and Daisy were playing Halo 5 co-op together on the same Xbox.They were playing on an Asgardian Xbox One Thousand.
It's terrifying to think that once this week is over, it's an 8 day wait. 3 years of waiting, down to 8 days...

The worst is the Monday prior... I gotta be up at 530am for work... The debate over jumping into some Warzone at midnight or go to bed is going to be difficult lol

Whatever floats your boat I guess.Oops, thought you were asking what you would spend money on, not "points" (just came from a Destiny microtransactions thread lol)
In that case, it needs an "All of the above" option ;]
I'll definitely be purchasing some gold packs right out of the gate to support the cause. And to hopefully get Venator or Wetwork lol.
I'm having a personal dilemma: keep buying Silver packs with my points until I get the Noble set, or just focus on Gold packs to get Wetwork, Venator, C.I.O., EVA, Helljumper...
Hopefully they show the rarity of some more armors so I know which packs to go for. Props to 343 for (seemingly) reducing how protruded the top of EVA is and making it more round like it should be.

I'll be leaving for work just before it unlocks.. But I'll finish at midday. The problem for me is being in Europe and downloading from the states, I will have this two to three days before my mates. I wanna do the campaign, but I wanna do co-op.
I want Deadeye as my main helmet, and am prepared to chuck down some cash launch day. Plus I would like to find some nice weapon skins to.
Wow this is some nice music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxQfWWJH1g4
By Kentish Pikey Go To PostThey have a couple of weeks to really snare people before cod and battlefront arrive, yet they are not making it easy..
First impressions and all that. My thoughts on the matter
I got to wonder at this, at least speaking for myself and Halo. I'm not going to go CoD or Battlefront because they suck in comparison to Halo MP, imo, so even dodgy playlists aren't going to make me jump ship. Then there's those who don't give a toss and would jump whatever.
I dunno, I just don't quite get the view that these relatively (and changeable) minor issues are going to ruin the game for anyone who loves Halo more than the competition, unless, to be quite frank, they're incredibly precious. Complain? Absolutely. Jump ship and never play it again? Not so sure.
Maybe I'm just too blase about it.
The reason games like Halo 3 were able to go toe to toe with Call of Duty (aside from us living in different times back then) is because they offered a lot you couldn't do in CoD. Custom games with buddies, Forge, Infection, Grifball, stuff like that.

EVA is less shit than the Halo 4 version, but I like the Hermes helmet a bit more.
By Mdot Go To PostWhen do the new Sprint episodes drop?
October 26th for Episodes 3 & 4, about halfway through November for the final 2 episodes.
@ RedSparrows. I didn't want to quote you because the posts become massive. I've not bought a cod since mw2, and have no intentions of changing this year. Battlefront wont be getting bought either. But I do think that some variety, sans needless padding will help keep people hooked. We'll see soon enough I suppose.
im glad theirs no bad mm achievements but remember those came with dlc not the base game in the past, so we'll see...
as for the campaign ones they dont look too bad although theirs a TON of co-op ones which might be a pain just cuz you gotta find ppl.

By FUNKNØWN iXi Go To PostAs for the Legendary/Mythic weapons, we should definitely keep pursuing it.fight for her. fight for the M6D

This is such a great video:

It makes me kind of miss the days of physical-only releases, but I suppose that was back when you didn't have to wait hours for the game to install after you put the disc in.

Sorry late to the conversation. But here is my two cents on the whole Legendary weapons in forge.
While im not Mad per say, im a little sad I thought it would be cool for customs/Machinema to be able to add all the different variants of weapons/Vehicles I really do think there is a large possibility to have these thing in Forge once it is released and i really hope they do decide to add them

if i try to get the no smart scope achievement i feel like whoever i do it with will screw up out of muscle memory, or i will and we'll have to keep restarting. im assuming if you press it at all you fail.
It's simple, everyone changes their control scheme to something that has Smart-Scope set to a button they never use with their regular control scheme, and so if they muscle memory the regular button, it will just melee or throw a grenade or something.
I don't think our disappointment is unreasonable though. They are making some pretty obtuse decisions that seem to do nothing but cause confusion or frustrate long time fans.
I'm still super excited though. After Hunt the Truth my lore sense is tingling lol.

accidentally left the preview program and it wiped my entire fucking console
Lol how do you accidentally do that?

just download halo 5 again and forget about everything else
By Fahzgoolin Go To PostLol how do you accidentally do that?because the NXOE was crashing last night, so I clicked into the "Exit Preview" thinner to see what the steps would be. Then hit Confirm instead of Cancel on accident
THANKS A LOT MICROSOFT UX
do you really want your xbox to be crashing while you're playing halo 5 because you're using the buggy preview OS?
I'm hoping they're responsive to demand on the "legendary weapons in customs" thing. Doesn't have to be all of 'em, but stuff like the SPNKR and CE pistol are no-brainers.
By derpface123 Go To Postdo you really want your xbox to be crashing while you're playing halo 5 because you're using the buggy preview OS?
I'm about to opt out myself. Especially when I get my external hard drive on payday.

By Poodlestrike Go To PostI'm hoping they're responsive to demand on the "legendary weapons in customs" thing. Doesn't have to be all of 'em, but stuff like the SPNKR and CE pistol are no-brainers.One reason why I really wish i could get my hands on Halo Online Is all the different variants of weapons. And as i have said before on other boards H/O if a different "genre" of game Just like Spartan assault is different, and while its very similar to the standard Halo its just different that said. I WANT HALO ONLINE so bad. I love all the different version of weapons with different stats. Hell And i know i will get flack for it but i wish we have customizable weapons, Have a gunsmith mode with in Universe option for all the weapons. The MA5 is meant to be a very flexible weapon with loads of option in universe ive wanted to see that in a halo game(not a mainline halo game) Same with armors and such as well. Imagine what Machinema Could do with all those options. Custom games would rock, i think it would be awesome. IMO

I was really hoping that there would be an achievement called "The Trials of Osiris" involving an Osiris mission and doing it with all skulls on or some nonsense. Just as an excuse to make the Destiny reference. 343 has failed me...

There is a track called The Trials.
I think by the time the game is out, the dash will be a lot more stable. Should only be a week or two from release at that point.
