oh man
OH MAN
They confirmed this about a month ago. Maybe longer.
By YourExWife Go To PostUgh. Seriously. I have the HD60. I have the equipment to do this with literally any other console or my PC. I'm not going to buy a special piece of (imo overpriced) equipment just to accomplish something that I had no problems with on MS's previous console for almost a decade.
Just add it to the fucking list of features that Microsoft felt like removing entirely from the 360 to the "new and improved" One. Can't mute system sounds, can't stream music without snapping, can't output chat without third party equipment, etc. Dammit, Cliq, you had my hopes up almost for a second there.
Hey, Salient, any option to output chat audio specifically with H5 by chance?
Well I was looking for a new headset anyway and I thought why not go for one that gives me a little more flexibility.
Guys I'm really sorry but I'm going to cancel the Throwdown. We didn't have enough people and I'm having technical issues on my end with the stream that my ADD won't let me get away from.

By Wesleyshark Go To PostThey confirmed this about a month ago. Maybe longer.Are we thinking this is the Spartan Companies/Clans? I really hope so!
By nillapuddin Go To Posti feel like if you quit (disconnect) out of a match, you should only be allowed to either
A. Join back into that match (if disconnect was accidental)
B. Not play again til that game is over
what did you guys think about that, because accidental disconnects are a real thing, and especially when playing with a group, it would suck if I got time banned and missed out on more games because of a fluke.
By NutterB Go To PostOh hi folks!supppp
I spotted you a few times while playing last Saturday! See you again tomorrow, maybe.
New article discussing MP merits.

"Triple Double
Get double digit Kills, Assist, and Headshots in a game"
Cool :)

When does an accidental disconnect become an actual disconnect? Games are relatively short in Arena so what's the grace period for coming back in?
so hey, only have two more Halo 3 levels to complete on co-op legendary. Anyone want to help? I'd be eternally grateful.
I think if you leave a match, you should only be allowed to either rejoin it, or wait until its over to play
By Wesleyshark Go To PostSo stoked about commendationsYeah, I'm glad they're coming back. I didn't pay close attention to them back in Reach, but it's fun to check my progress from time to time.

CSGO has a nice feature where you can either re-connect or abandon the match. If you abandon you get a 30 minute cooldown or more depending on the amount of infractions you have incurred.
By Rokklaggio Go To PostYeah so no campaign theater.
QTEs confirmed
By Wahrer Go To PostQTEs confirmed
We already kinda saw QTE-ish stuff in the E3 2015 campaign footage...I wonder how this works in coop? The cutscene only happens for the Locke player? Would it be like that for the entire game then? Just Locke constantly sliding down slopes, getting knocked over by Prometheans, sticking grenades in the Didact...
By Fahzgoolin Go To PostCSGO has a nice feature where you can either re-connect or abandon the match. If you abandon you get a 30 minute cooldown or more depending on the amount of infractions you have incurred.
That works fine in CS because the matches are upwards of 90 minutes long. Not sure how it would work with a 5-10 minute match when it could take you two minutes to get back in.
By Cliq Go To PostThat works fine in CS because the matches are upwards of 90 minutes long. Not sure how it would work with a 5-10 minute match when it could take you two minutes to get back in.
I'm trying to follow what you are saying here. Even if the matches are shorter, how would it be a disadvantage for a dropped player to come back--even if it was only for a couple more minutes?

It's not, but the game may already be lost at that point. I mean it's all good in my book. I just feel if you are gone for any period of time in a Halo match, it usually means you are going to be pretty far behind.

This is true. Seems like that in Halo 5 especially.
They should replace quitters with the marines from Warzone. Those guys are beasts from what I've seen.
Played a lot of CE tonight and it felt gooood. Disappointing how it took this long to get that 4v4 playlist.. I hope it sticks around.
Josh pls, if you read this stahp the nonsense. You must fully embrace the luv that is Halo 1, which includes allowing the CE Pistol in Custom Games. Do the right thing, you are what this community deserves, and what it needs right now. Think of the kids! Think of nice people like Cliq dropping F-BOMBS because the disappointment is too much to bear! Think of the ExWives who have an encyclopedia of gifs, waiting to be unleashed! Think of the zoojoos who were once pure, but now changed after the great cleansing! Think of all of us, for we think about you all the time. That's right, Josh.. we're thinking about you right now, as I type this, as you read this. We're watching you, Josh. Always watching.
Do the right thing.

So reading through the medal list and saw this:
"Award the Clutch Kill Medal
Player gains the lead with a kill in the final seconds or kills in Sudden Death"
This is supposed to be in a Slayer match. Are they adding sudden death to Slayer now? So no more ties?

Hey everyone. Unstable from GAF here.
How long have you been a member of SLAENT? How long have you lurked?
Signed up today, but lurked HaloGAF for a very long time.
How long have you been a Halo fan? Have you played all the games?
Started November 15, 2001, and I've been with the series ever since.
What mode do you spend most of your time in?
(i.e. Multiplayer, Campaign, Forge, Firefight, Theater)
Multiplayer for sure, mostly competitive or customs.
What is your favorite playlist?
(i.e. MLG, Action Sack)
I have my fondest memories in Doubles. Team Hardcore in Halo 2 is a strong contender as well.
I've posted/lurked in a wide variety of Halo related sites. Started with Bungie.net in 2004ish, then moved to lurking competitive communities like Team Battles. HaloGAF I lurked for quite a long time (like 5 years) and HaloGAF was the reason I made my GAF account.
I've played far too much Destiny than any human should. On GAF I post and play with DestinyGAF pretty much exclusively. Love the community and I figure there's a good deal of overlap between HaloGAF and DestinyGAF.
Hope to play with all of you guys!

lmao
By Unstable Go To PostHope to play with all of you guys!Why hello there.
By tootsi666 Go To PostWas he the guy who posted a clip of him teamkilling in H2A because someone dared to touch his Sniper Rifle?Eh, to be fair it was actually him no scoping his team mate because they were shooting him for taking the sniper.
By jem Go To PostEh, to be fair it was actually him no scoping his team mate because they were shooting him for taking the sniper.My bad.
Still, he seems like an awesome guy I'd like to play with :)

Halo 5's Heroic looks comparable to Halo 3's Heroic. I'm going to run it on Legendary the first time after seeing naked eli's footage.
What are you guys going to do?

Kinda easy, though. They're chewing you up when you're on your own, but when the full team is there it's not much of a contest.
I hope it really scales up when you have some co-op buddies to play with. :) Thanks for watching, those that did.

I think it means when the score is 49-49. That's how I interrupted it.
ANNNND Halo 4 is done! On Legendary. Solo. ALL CAMPAIGNS! FUCK YEAAAAHH!!! Also ended up redoing Tsavo Highway since it didn't register for some reason.
Interestingly, my opinion on some of Halo 4's campaign has lightened upon replaying it. Long story short the gameplay was okay with an AI that leaves a bit to be desired, I still don't like the sound design, the music has a couple of cool tracks, I don't find the aesthetic to be good with a few exceptions such as the Forerunner architecture (when it manages to restrain itself), and the story was a good try that fell flat for the most part for me. More detailed thoughts in the spoilers.
The first level on FuD was pretty fun and some of the late levels have some pretty areas such as on the Mammoth level when you go into the Forerunner base/facility/library thing. So while the textures and art style have issues, it does have some areas in which it manages to pull off a nice look (mostly Forerunner stuff when they dial down the lens flare and tron lines everywhere). The soundtrack is a mixed bag with a couple memorable tracks, Not much really sticks though. The sound design can go die in a foam pit though. The warthog… ugh.
The gameplay was pretty okay. There's some bullshit like how Banshees and Ghosts are super turrets if you get inside any vehicle. The Binary enemies weren't really that much of an issue this time around; I wonder if that is because I knew when to look for them though. That aside it does a decent job with the AI leaving a little bit to be desired. Using the needler was fun and very much a part of getting through certain areas. I found myself switching up weapons a lot. I also ignored heavy weapons quite often if I had a needler lol. Oh and the Broadsword segment was kickass.
Lastly the story… I'll say that it has its moments. Chief and Cortana have a couple of nice ones, Lasky is pretty cool, and Chief telling Dorito to fuck off was great. The rest either didn't really stand out or was bad for me. Many lines from Cortana such as "Don't make a girl a promise blah blah" or when she touches Chief's nipple oh so tenderly were really… blegh. If she had I don't know… hugged him or put her hand to his helmet or arm I feel it would've been better. Maybe it's the following line of "I've always wanted to do that" that breaks it. Overall I can see what they were going for but I just don't think they managed to pull most of it off.
Here's a couple of clips
