Halo 5: Guardians |OT| The Trials of Osiris

Holy crap, because of the livestream showing Locke's voice actor i JUST realised that Colter, the guy portraying Locke in Nightfall and whos Likeness is used in the game, doesn't actually voice him in the final game. He DID voice him in the Halo 2 Anniversary cinematics.

Did that ever happen? I know that studios regularly use two different people for mo-cap and face recognition, but then the guy who das face recognition is normally also the guy who does the voice. Is there any explanation out there for that change?

Mike Colter's schedule is likely taken up by the Jessica Jones Netflix show.
 
Hurray! Going to the midnight release even though I'm not buying it.. Yet.

I'll be able to get a taste for the game, so I may as well check it out.

I'm waiting until black Friday to buy an Xbox One.

This game is going to be amazing.

The Microsoft store has done some awesome midnight releases in the past.
 
Frankie said it best about the new Locke voice:

Just played for about 2 hours and 30 minutes. 2 of those in the campaign and 30 min of multiplayer. Campaign is definitely better then 4 not even a question about that in my mind. I only finished 2 missions so far though on the Heroic difficulty. What I will say though is in game they don't really provide any context for your team or anything like that. And something that I am sure many others will echo, Locke fucking sucks, he's such a boring monotone character. The Blue Team mission was so much better then what I played of the first Osiris mission. I hope I change my view on Locke, but so far he's giving nothing to validate why he is even in this game.
 
Best Buy is opening at 11pm but won't give the game until 12pm local time, what the fuck?

Fun times. My console powered down while downloading the update, which paused the update. Time to go to bed without having played Halo ...
 
File size is 54.8 gigs, no update prompt here. Store page says "install" instead of "update" though, but I doubt it means anything.
 
Curious about this as well - seeing a different voice actor threw me for a loop too.

When he got the Luke Cage roll, his schedule got taken so 343 ended up switching the voice actor.
 
So...

On my manage game file it says its 54.8 gigs.

I downloaded it in October but my bandwith usage for this month is only 31.37 gigs. Does that mean I have to redownload?
 
Ready to party like its September 25, 2007

Needs more Gamefuel.
 
This game might have the ugliest subtitles I have ever seen.

Yellow and so big they take up half the screen. I'm not blind 343.
 
Ok I'm platin in Showdown with randoms, I really liked that, super tense games.

Will love to play more. Tomorrow I will try to dethrone Braxxy from his champion spot
 
Thanks for the clarifications regarding Colter, makes a lot of sense. Was not aware of his other acting work. It just completely threw me off because I played through the game twice just figuring I'm hearing the guy's voice.

Now after comparing it to Colter's performance in Halo 2: Anniversary I'd love to hear his take on the role. Seems like it had a little more personality, while the current actor is a lot more "gruffy military man". Not that that's a bad thing necessarily, I just think Locke could have used every bit of personality they could have given him, because he certainly doesn't get a lot from the written dialogue...

That's exactly my point but my best buy said they still won't give out until 12.
 
I don't know why I even get excited anymore. Just got home, put my Halo 5 disc in and it'll probably finish installing/downloading only by the end of November.

God damn it, I want to play! ;-;
 
Played the first 7 missions non stop, so far I'd say this is an 8/10 campaing. Started on normal and after 10 minutes restarted on heroic. I'd say heroic on this game is like normal on Halo 4.

Graphics are ok, some sceneries are certainly better than others, Im not a graphic whore at all so going for 60 fps was wise.

I crave for an Halo RPG at 30fps and 20-30+ hours of campaing.

Reposting this.

Need advice on this ASAP. Uninstall and reinstall right now? Or wait and see what happens at midnight?
