Halo 5: Guardians |OT| The Trials of Osiris

I recommend playing SWAT to get you aim down. Might get reqt the first few games, but my buddy did that and it helped improve his shot big time.

No, I'm good at aiming, I pretty much always get a headshot on first shot. It's the next precision that I can't get a handle on.
 
Had to gif my first Promethean assasination

Also loving their design. How many people have spotted their tiny arms before? :p

 
So what's ahead for H5? Do we know when new maps are coming? When the weekend play lists start? When BTB hits? And where do we watch for this kind of news. Just Waypoint?

All we know right now is a big update is scheduled for December that includes BTB. Don't know what's happening between now and then if anything
 
Excuse my extremely noob questions but this is my first halo.

Is there meant to be any kind of marker indicating which way I should be heading?

Am I able to use weapons unlocked via req packs in the campaign?

When playing multi can I just start out with a sniper or is the only way to get the pick up that spawns throughout the match?

Thanks
 
Anyone else feel like 70% of their deaths are from behind in multiplayer?

The radar at it's current range is pretty much nonexistent. The only time it really works is when someone is right in front of you which defeats the purpose a bit. They should either buff it slightly or remove entirely.

I agree with this. It needs to have a longer range or be removed altogether so we're not tempted to look at it when it's useless.
 
I so fucking hate the Warden Eternal! I'm currently stuck trying to beat the 3 of him (solo and co-op) and I'm raging.

Go on top of those things you can climb up onto. You effectively take his sword out of the fight. Target the head consistently, that will quickly get him vulnerable. After defeating 1 or two, you will get a checkpoint.
 
So I loved the Halo 5 campaign. It was definitely my favorite Halo campaign so far and I love where the story is heading. Halo 6 should be ridiculous.

However, there are some stupid things that really hold it back from being truly great. The Warden is the biggest negative point. If we fought him once then I would be okay but fighting him 6-7 times is just ridiculous. The Prometheans in general were not fun to fight.

I also thought they could have done more to explain the lore better in the games. Thats one thing that pisses me off about Halo games is that a lot of important backstory is left to comics and other stuff. I know a little bit of the lore so I was able to hang in there for the most part but I still need to spend a lot of time in the Lore and Spoiler threads to really understand what I just finished playing. For those that dont know anything besides whats presented in the games, I can understand their frustration and why they would not have a fun time with the campaign at all.

Osiris was a cool team but I really dont care about any of them. I thought it was nice of Locke to
acknowledge the Chief as Sir. Its like hes the next generation but he knows whos top dog. I actually didnt care about anyone besides the Chief unfortunately. Even the rest of Blue Team was meh. Buck was cool but I thought Vale was the best Osiris member. I liked that she had an interest in history and she was genuinely fascinated about the things they uncovered in Sanghelios. The ending with Halsey looking at Chief while Locke is standing next to him definitely gave me chills. It was great.

Exuberant Witness was cute as well. So adorable how much she enjoyed warfare lol

Took me about 14 hours on Heroic. I played chapter 14 on Easy after
running into the Warden for the SECOND time in one level.
The rest was on Heroic. The length was satisfying though I wasnt a fan of how some levels were ridiculously short.

When "The Trials" came on during
mission 14
...fuuuuuuuuuu I was so hyped.

Time to view old terminals and listen / read all the intel from YouTube/Wiki. Great work 343!


Try fighting the Warden on Legendary. I'm about to throw my controller at my tv if I die again.
 
I just beat the game (normal) and holy shit were those last three missions bad, boring and repetitive. Not even gonna bother with other difficulty levels after that.

And the story felt like it was written by a teenager.
 
2.415 k/d
48 assists in 10 games
7 wins, 3 loses (2 of which started 3v4 BTW)
Onyx III in the beta... Ranked gold 1. Are you joking halo? 343 pls.

Oh well. Stress free donging is in my future I suppose.
 
Warzone assault is fun, but hard. They should've done it in a few rounds, have teams switch sides imo. Cause there's not a lot of time.
 
I love war zone, but you can certainly tell when a large party is on the other team, and yours are small or non existent 😃
 
I played last night for the first time. All evening in custom games with a bunch of friends. The new moves were great. We had a blast! I slammed someone off the ledge! Shotgun feels great. Loving the ADS effect. It still feels like halo!

I was never able to figure out how to start a custom game with vehicles. My favorite maps from old Halo games were large ones with vehicles like Ragnarok.

Anyone have advice on how to set up a private team death match on a Ragnarok like level with vehicles?

Pretty sure you won't be able to do that until the BTB maps launch in a few weeks.
 
I've been steamrolling people in Warzone assault for the past hour or so. Matches last like no longer than 7 minutes. It's been a quick way to earn REQ packs since they award so many points.

I really like the game mode, but I wish 343 would make it so you earn your REQ level faster in it than the standard Warzone since the game never lasts long enough to use anything over level 5.
 
What a shitty ending lol. Legendary is very doable Solo though there are several hard sequences due to your stupid teammates who deserve to be flogged.

Campaign was enjoyable even though I'm still confused about several things. Music was much better than Halo 4 but your typical forgettable Hollywood orchestra. Solid campaign.

For anyone trying to skip the Warden fight, run right to the grav lift, thrust then ground pound onto the platform. Very easy to do.

Lol, I can get on the top but they either shoot me off or I completely fail to ground pound anywhere near that platform.

Do you jump and thruster boost closer before you ground pound?
 
I really hope the free maps aren't all going to be forge made. They are soooo ugly.

Whatever solution they have for discouraging quitters right now isn't working. Almost every game I play is 3v4.

Same here, quitters are super common.
