By Haruko Go To PostInfinite is looking pretty slick. Can't wait for 12/8Yeet. Been waiting for the vs for a long time now.
By Adam Go To PostI just want Halo 5 on PC.
Is that too much to ask for?
I want it too. I hope they come back and add it at some point, but I fear it may be a while
Feels like we should bump this so the gaming thread isn't just Halo/Yurt's SMT discussion
Fuck strongholds. Why do people feel like you need to cap all 3 instead of just holding 2

Most noobs refuse to clear out an area and gain some control and instead just run to the ball, flag, zone with no forethought.
got some games in via xplay with pulga. Good fun. bit dumb i can't access my xbox friendlist from within the steam version of the game.
I haven't had a crash yet surprisingly.
After some more playing, 5 flag CTF does not work for the current maps. It's best for smaller fast paced maps like Midship. Trying to cap 5 flags on a map like Behemoth makes no sense.
Mangler sucks.

CTF and Stronghold big thumbs down. The ball one can be pretty lame too if your opponents know how and where to cheese it and then drop off the map with it.
By Smokey Go To PostCTF is just trash. Periodt.
By Lunatic Go To PostCTF is great but it's definitely frustrating if you don't have a good squad.super trash
i could maybe do 1 flag. but this stare at each other across the map with the opposing flag shit is lame. and overtime on top of that? no.
Yeah not being able to cap when they have the flag is some stupid game of chicken. Lemme just frag out breh.
By i can get you a toe Go To PostYeah not being able to cap when they have the flag is some stupid game of chicken. Lemme just frag out breh.That's been the rules forever, though. They're definitely not going to change it at this point.
I think it's more a thing for the pro scene, really. It does make watching those matches interesting.
By rodeoclown Go To PostThat's been the rules forever, though. They're definitely not going to change it at this point.I'd rather do 1 flag than that. Could even do it on midship or lockout or whatever but these maps are just too big.

i like that its a lot more organic than what i've seen from halo in previous years. its a really, really solid foundation this time around. i just don't know about the direction this stuff is going to go.
i was actually looking at some of my matches from yesterday and one thing that was really bothering me was the AoE/damage drop off on grenades. the difference between me walking out with an overkill or getting smacked and waiting on respawn was almost entirely on me not understanding what to expect from a grenade hit. and maybe im entirely flabby, but im struggling to really pick up on shield strength based on visuals.
that may be my biggest issue going from destiny back to halo. damage numbers. far, far too often im estimating what a tick or hit marker actually means and end up committing only to find out i guessed wrong.
Also, 3/6 of my ranked games have had my team with a man disadvantage and one of my other ranked games we had man advantage.
i knew i wasn't tripping this shit is OD and is exactly why the controller deadzones are the size of a truck out the box
I've seen less lag in BTB than ranked/4v4 so lol. So tired of Total Control and bad maps where I can't get a weapon worth having.
The seeds stuff (Stockpile I guess is the name) is just smh too.

By DY_nasty Go To PostDamn I guess I need to go back to controller

Something I truly dislike is the post-match report. It takes too many button presses to just plainly see the stats. There wasn't anything wrong with the one from H5, so I'm not sure why they made these changes.
Also, how can you not see stuff like your k/d in the game? It's bizarre.

That’s wild I thought it was actually a bit less
By Laboured Go To PostI’m really glad they are making these changes quickly - it’s quite demoralising to play a tense, long match and then get literally 0 XP at the end. I logged on yesterday for about an hour and my challenges were to play CTF.. and it didn’t come up in the hopper.
Ultimately I think it would have pushed a lot of people away.
Now change playlists and we are golden.
I honestly think demonstrating the progressions that's there would alleviate a lot of the complaints.
Playing games does reward you XP (in the end, ie playing 3 PvP games) - it just doesn't really feel it.

By heavyssandvich Go To PostGood stuff. I never get the hang of the Skewer.
Really enjoying playing this - just wanting more mates.
Are you Efe on XBL ?
It just feels like shit man.
Playing 3 games to get 100 out of 1000+ exp is poor game design - win or lose, perform well or badly. Fuck that.

Got an overkill on Oddball last night although I did have to scream at the lads to leave the last one alone as I reloaded the SPNKR. Sadly I think I got the kill more cuz they're bad rather than them letting me have it.
Skewer is so much fun though.
Behemoth is a cool map when the Banshee isn't spawned. So dumb. If the Banshee is enabled, the power weapons should be the Skewers, not the fucking sniper rifle.
By Lupercal Go To PostGood stuff. I never get the hang of the Skewer.Yeah efeman

Actually had the first decent CTF game this morning where randos were actually playing the objective and defending.
It’s rare af for that tho
