Halo 5: Guardians |OT| The Trials of Osiris

I haven't bought an Xbox One yet lol.

Getting the MCC bundle on way home from work. So that's a negative.

Oh damn... Lol

I personally feel like Digital is the way to go, especially on a game that looks to have longevity... But in your case, I'd probably go with physical.
 
Zero issue. Honestly, each match took maybe 3-5 seconds to find everyone and load up. It was pretty fast.

I wonder where is all the people that said this was going to be a disaster just as MCC, that 343 cannot be trusted again...

Oh well, i'm still waiting for the game to be deliver, damn you amazon.
 
I can't believe 343 had the balls to ship this motion tracker, it really is borderline useless, lol.

This games MP gives no fucks about your feelings, so refreshing.
 
Tried another MP match this morning and our team lost 100-12

Had 2 teammates send me messages after that I suck. Why do people bother taking the time to do that kind of shit? Everyone is just learning the game
 
Wow Breakout is bad. I don't want to play just slayer though.....

I reeeaally like the new stats. Damage dealt is one of the most useful statistics possible IMO and they brought back accuracy. Love it.

Lmao, thats Halo! Only thing is missing is the pregame lobby trash talk!

Yeah, it makes me question why they even have it in the game at this point. It feels like it can barely tell you an enemy is even in the same room as you. I understand why they did it, but it is going to take some time to adapt.

It really is ha. It's almost better to just ignore it because by the time you see that red dot you're usually down two shots already.

I am the opposite, I really like breakout and lead to some of my most tense matches with my team. We pretty much destroyed every other gametype.
 
I'm probably on the far extreme; however, i detest maps in all multiplayer shooters. Be observant... communicate and call-out to your team members and rely on them and you're map-awareness and intel on spawn location to figure out hidden enemy position. Maps = weakness ;)
 
Friendly reminder to folks:

HaloGAF Community Launch Montage!

Perhaps somewhat foolishly, I have volunteered myself to once again create a community montage for HaloGAF. You can see my previous work, the Halo 5 Beta Montage here.

This is a pretty big undertaking, and I'm assuming the contribution of clips to myself will be of a high volume. So there are a few rules:

1) Open to anyone on NeoGAF
2) All clips must be recorded using the Xbox Game DVR application.
3) All clips must ideally be 30 seconds long at most to allow for some leeway during editing.
4) A link must be supplied from either xboxclips.com or xboxdvr.com - in order to allow me to download them, you may need to alter your privacy settings.
5) All clips MUST be emailed to halogafmontage@gmail.com with the appropriate link to the clip.
6) Your email must include your Gamertag and NeoGAF username.
7) Submission entries will close on Saturday November 7th 2015.

Whilst I can mostly guarantee this one to be Taylor Swift free, I won't make any promises. I can't promise to use EVERY clip sent in, but your chances are higher the more awesome the clip.

I hope everyone enjoys the game (I know I have!) If you have a suggestion for the name of the Montage, please feel free to drop it in your email to me with your submissions.

EDIT: Should I just make an OT?

awesome, thanks for doing this
 
One thing I can't stand about Warzone? Getting the final hit on a boss counts as the kill. We just focused fire on the Warden Eternal with a Mantis, a Scorpion, a Ghost and a Banshee and a guy on the enemy team with a magnum got the kill.

There's a reason it's not ranked. It's dumb fun. It Will be interesting to see how they adjust/balance things in the future though.
 
Sitting at my desk at work is torture right now, haha. Reminds me of the day I got an N64 for my birthday and had to wait till I got out of school for the day to play it. I sacrificed some sleep and played the first two missions last night but it wasn't enough dangit! I need some Halo.
 
@Frankie

Possible solution to the VIP bs that happens on Warzone.

When the enemy gets to 30% health then the game asks if one team has contributed 50% more damage than the other team. If so, then the team that contributed that much more damage causes the enemy to get a buff where for 10 seconds, any kill causes the points to be awarded to that team.

Because right now, the system sucks.

Forces you to manage enemies nearby and not just shoot the boss...winner takes all raises the stakes...its also just fun and not supposed to be super balanced
 
Through Mission 7... god damn 343, this is damn good.

A few small gripes here and there but the gameplay and level design are absolutely phenomenal, a huge step up from Halo 4 in every regard.

About to hop into MP for a few games and then I'm taking off for the night.

We back.

ditto
 
Well I've been playing for 9 hours now which I NEVER do, so I'm going to be napping for a few hours before I'm back at it (I took the day off of my classes for it, I'm gonna maximize my time!) so if anyone wants to get some Arena or WZ going in about two/three hours...

GT: xFEARxDARKN3SSx

Changing it soon, trust me
