By PsychoRaven Go To PostMan I had forgotten how good Reach is. Just got done playing it again on the Xbone and it was fun. I'm amazed at how well it runs now compared to release. Only had 1 good moment of slowdown on the defend the bunker till Halsey opens the door and then about 3 audio glitches that were very minor. Bungie really sent Halo out in grand style with that game.
OH and yea we're still here. We're just in a slow time until news on the next game comes out.
Still here, yet any time news comes out I have to resort to going to GAF because that's the only place anything is being posted...

Get the Spartan’s Armory REQ Pack, Unlock New REQs<br>
As some of you may have spotted floating around in the REQ Store last week, there’s a new REQ Pack available to check out! The Spartan’s Armory REQ Pack has a high chance of granting REQs specifically from content updates, such as Infinity’s Armory and Hammer Storm, 14 all new weapon skins and <b>the coveted 343 Industries Assault Rifle and Magnum skins</b>, previously exclusive to members of the studio! The pack is available <b>now until midnight PT this Sunday, Mar. 20, and can be purchased in-game for 80,000 RP or $9.99 on the Xbox Store</b>. Here are some of the brand new REQs you may find when opening the pack!<p></p>
<p>Blue Team Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon Skin: Emblazoned with the symbol of the legendary Blue Team. Olly olly oxen free, Spartans!
<br>
Noble Team Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon Skin: Can’t wait for the Memories of Reach content update in April? Get your nostalgic kick now with the Noble Team Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon skins.
<br>
Spirit of Fire Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon Skin: Exitus Acta Probat. Represent the crew of the Spirit of Fire with its phoenix symbol.
<br>
Fireteam Osiris Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon Skin: Navy, Army, ODST and Oni. Only the best are tasked with the most secretive of missions.
<br>
343 Industries Assault Rifle and Magnum Weapon Skin: Don the mantle of responsibility and deliver lead using the 343 Industries Assault Rifle and Magnum skins!</p>
For those of you who prefer physical discs, Amazon will also be running a special promotion starting Friday from 9 a.m. to midnight PT on Sunday: $20 off the Standard and Limited editions of Halo 5: Guardians plus three Gold REQ Packs thrown in for free. <b>They also have you covered if you’ve been eyeing the Arena REQ Bundle, available for 50% off!</b>
Also, Having skins and armor exclusive to these packs (and certain beta emblems being locked forever). and ONLY these types of packs is redundant to what Quinn said before launch about "everything being able to be earned In-game".
Warning to anyone with all REQs up until this pack: You'll only get 2 weapon skins and 3 5k RP refund cards in each pack, which is hardly worth the 9.99/80k RP cost. It should have been 5 of the weapon skins in each pack, IMO. Not sure if it's a mistake or just poorly implemented
Looks like it was a mistake; if you were affected, they are taking gamertags here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/4ats96/spartans_armory_req_pack_now_available_includes/
EDIT: confirmed to be fixed. "Yeah it's fixed now. You get five weapon skins per pack. So I got everything after opening three packs. So you need 240k req if you don't want to spend money."

Update: This issue has been fixed for future purchases.

By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostSlaent is like my own personal echo chamber. this is greatwhat can you do *shrug*
Just wanna get paid already so I can get Hitman, pretty pleased with what I played in the demo. The episodic crap is kinda dumb though

How was the Demo? I was instantly turned off because it is episodic.
It took the book from blood money while streamlining a few gameplay elements.
A vast improvement over absolution, just wish it wasn't being released in episodic bursts. I guess it'll keep me from tearing through the game and give me something to come back too after playing SFV and (being forced to play) Pokken.
KoF XIV is also on the list of things to get.

By Silky Go To PostKOFXIV is gonna have garbage netcode and you'd be dumb to think otherwiseSilky is salty and the game isn't even out yet.
Probably will spend most of my game time playing with my buds anyway via local versus. SFV is my online fighter.
50 fighter roster, no Vanessa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf-ANnjvrlA
Oh guys. If you are on preview dashboard you can play Halo Wars BC tonight. In fact if you are following the game you can even start downloading it already.
By Silky Go To PostKOFXIV is gonna have garbage netcode and you'd be dumb to think otherwiseKOF has always had bad netcode... but at least they arent fucking over anyone who plays an obscure or D+ tier character like capcapom
By JBird20022 Go To PostSilky is salty and the game isn't even out yet.. Just expecting the inevitable b.
But my Nakoruru/Geese/Angel team gonna be so lit

This isn't totally correct; there are 16 new skins, not 14. So it takes a 4th pack to get the 16th skin, and you end up with something like this
The tournament has been pretty good so far. Denial and Elevate dominating their pool, Epsi beating an NA team (even though it was C9), RNG beating EG.
I'm convinced "Unedited Footage of a Bear" and "This House Has People In It" are related, but idk how, and it's driving my paranoia insane
Firefight trailer is up. Go to GAF to see it.
8 Spartan PvE, 5 rounds, req usage. It better Give a fuckton of RP.

By JBird20022 Go To Post> Fun gametypeWhy not both?
> RP
You only get one pal
By Ricky Ricardo Go To PostWhy not both?because 343. the people who released a half finished multiplayer suite. and think that slicing maps into small chunks, makes them new maps. and that Warzone deserves more spotlight than legacy gametypes.
HOGAN. GIVING THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT!
HERE IT COMES... ATOMIC LEG DROP ON GAWKER MEDIA!
HERE'S THE COVER ONE... TWO... THREE!
cue the music
IT'S OVER, HOGAN WINS!

Same director. But if you mean lore/universe wise, idk. The security company has a website that acts as a viral ARG. More scenes are available there.
Man, what a year this has been. We're not even out of March, either. Ten bucks says NK invades SK by the end of this year.
I know the dad is the same character as the crying cop in UFOAB, so there has to be some kind of tie-in

By JBird20022 Go To PostSo, what's in it?So…that new "update"
Who am I kidding, it's literally nothing
Maybe it's just me, but I still prefer the old Guardian look.
I mean, just look at that. It's an owl, and owls are awesome. Made it seem more mysterious, ambiguous, like you couldn't tell if they were good or bad. It was like something out of a dream, imo.

They took a huge detour from concept to marketing to release.
Also another segment of "What I learned on neogaf today": Doing something that can potentially get your fired isn't wrong as long as you don't get caught or told on. https://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=199705522&postcount=2871

It's a shame really because when I first saw Halo 5 my first thought was "This has a LOT of potential to be cool."
Now we're here. :/
I saw that on /v/. Idk how to feel about it tbh. Business is business, though. That's why you gotta watch what you say on Twitter and Facebook. It's easy to destroy a reputation in seconds, especially one you've worked years to build up.

Tbh the whole campaign kinda makes me disappointed. Like I said, the potential was there, there could have been something awesome (i.e playing as Blue Team for MORE than 3 missions, seeing Locke and Chief do an actual fight and not that MGS4 Ending fight, etc.)
By JBird20022 Go To PostWe didn't even get jedi robe master chief…what gives, really wanted that.The action figure made him look like those goombas from the Mario movie.
343 not delivering on something? shocked.
they've missed dates for content updates post launch too.

They hired someone who hates Halo to redesign it.
