I love the radar change, so I'm interested in the internal design discussion that led to it.

Do a search for the skip all 3 Wardens on youtube. Unless you want to throw your controller at the tv. Lol
I'm currently at the very last battle in the game in my solo legendary run. Frustrating only due to the amount of enemies and the idiotic ai companions. Lol

Adding some people in here right now. I primarily play that digital crack Arena. I'm normally soloing, so any chance at forming a group is welcome. I've still yet to get a feel for Warzone though.

Four games in a row - not a coincidence. This means I can't play enough games to earn a rank. Cool.

You mean the twenty posts that were most likely in the same conversation about the same topic outside of my complaints about the story? I've talked about plenty of positives about the game, including the Models, multiplayer, frame rate being rock solid (and I applaud 343 making graphical compromises to reach this as it is multiple times more important than pretty graphics), and some of the game modes (Breakout is particularly fun), but I guess I've learned my lesson, better be 100 percent positive all the time or shut my mouth.
Where did I ever compare the game to the PC in any way? Unless you're assuming that talking about KB+M controls is "comparing to the PC" as if there have never been any console games that allow you to use a KB+M. Either way this argument is pointless as it's essentially just complaining about opinions from both sides.
On topic though, has there been any news about how we will vote for the weekend playlists? Will it be through Waypoint/Halo channel or handled in game as well?

"Friendly fire! How exhilarating!"
"Careful, humans - Warden will notice that flag's absence."
"I see what the Warden means about your penchant for spray-and-pray as a first solution."
I'm almost finished with the campaign... I really don't understand the hatred for it..
Yeah the story is a bit campy... But that's pretty much how all the campaigns have been, except for Reach and ODST.
But the gameplay was top notch... I really enjoyed the level design. Sure it was lacking it true open arenas, but the linear sections (let's face it, most halo levels are linear) were very open to explorations and experimentation; more so than in any Halo campaign before it. And there was no backtracking! That's gotta count for something..
But yeah, fuck the last boss fight. I cheesed my way through the one prior, but skipped the last altogether... Didn't even try.
I will say this , the visuals on Sunaion are strange... They aren't nearly as impressive as the rest of the game. I was hoping for an improvement over the E3 build, but it just looks shoddy. I don't know if it's due to the variable resolution, but I found it really off putting... The gunfights were fantastic in it though...

This metal earth Guardian is ridiculous. I was expecting it to be like simple legos. Boy was I wrong.
I'll probably never assemble this thing >:/

My main complaint with the campaign so far is its boring. Not much at all is happening. But again I have only finished mission 5 so I'm still pretty early and I hear the 2nd half is way better. If that true I just think 343 should have paced the game a lot better because mission 1 was fun but the next 4 almost nothing has happened

Anyone down for some Slayer? No mic but decent. GT Collateral Cat.
Yeah, when I saw how many pieces it was I decided that it would be staying in sheet form forever.

You can check your Service Record on Halo Waypoint and you'll see your progress as a Ring around your Rank.

You're in for a world of hurt.
Look for better weapons around his areas and out teammates in safe spots.
In my experience, 3-6 depending what ranked opponents you face

The people telling you the second half is better are definitely right in my opinions. The Osiris missions are drastically better especially when it comes to environments.
If you time it correctly with the incineration cannon you can actually get them stuck in an animation loop where they keep chaining from damage animation to damage animation. It's especially useful in the last fight as it can basically cut down 2/3s of them at once.

Disconnect your Xbox from the Internet when installing games from disc, otherwise it downloads the patch at the same time and takes a lot longer.

Does the Rocket Launcher just have no splash damage at all now?

I know, and I did. It's horribly slow regardless, and currently stuck at 99%.
Aaaand it's done. Game time!
This is good
I'm really getting sick of the ranking system. Why do I get punished when I do really well but the rest of my team was awful, dropped, or was a afk? It's my rank, not a team rank.
I know it's stupid to get irked by this, I'm not some great Halo player but seeing that red down arrow when I had 20 kills or the most flag caps or whatever is grating.

Yup
oh shittt.
Not sure if this has already been answered, but yes, bases absolutely 100% give you one point every few seconds for each one held.

Ranking is based on whether your team won or not. If it was based on kills or some other individual measure people wouldn't play to win, they'd play to boost their stats on whatever way measures an "individual" win.
Ranked FFA is there if you want to be judged only on individual performance (although there are still a few issues with that game type skill definitely shines through).
Not all MP. Warzone is like that, arena is 4v4 with equal starts and weapon pickups on the map.

There is still Arena multiplayer and normal Big Team Battle is coming by the end of the year.

Seriously 343, either add join in progress or ban these little quitting bitches for long periods of time. Getting sick of this now.

Isn't it set so if you're in the top 2 or 3 on the losing team you still advance,or am I thinking of a different game? If it's not in H5 it would be a great fix to this problem.

About to start leaving quitters bad feedback that way if enough people do it they get blacklisted/banned on live.
It's a team game, the win is all that matters.
Yeah, if someone quits they need to be banned from queuing again for 30 minutes and if they do it again in the same day then an hour.
Something significantly more severe since people are still quiting just as much as they were in past Halo games, which is a fuck ton.
You really think they'd release a teaser in 2013 for a game that's coming out in 2017/8 at the soonest?
It was for Halo 5, by the way.

The studio that made it uploaded that version to their website.
It's less. worse though is how crazy long it takes to switch to it.
Well your in a Team playlist, so it's judging your effectiveness in a team... Your individual stats mean nothing if you aren't helping your team do better. It's like a wide receiver who catches a lot of passes, but won't run block.
