It's strange, I have no idea why they aren't in slayer. Truth is perfect for slayer.

I really feel like BTB will have the maps most people are wanting. These arena maps were created by pros for pros to compete I think. And they do play great despite not being adventurous and fun to look at.

my only fear is how long they take to add btb
By the end of the year.

I have never played a Halo game co-op on Legendary. Going through with 2 of my friends and one AI has been both incredibly frustrating and also unbelievably rewarding. We've almost given up a dozen times but always find a way to power through.
The AI is also hilariously useless.

I wonder if they could somehow implement a "damage percentage" state or something.
We all do. It makes zero sense to change this from the old style. Especially since there are no kill cams - you can't get a good idea of your surroundings to call out guys to your team or NOT do what you did to get killed, next time. It makes the game way less call out heavy.
TBF I'm Plat and I'm dreadful.
Ooh we get these Mondays then? Makes sense I guess.
Looking forward to getting two uncommon
I placed Gold in Team Slayer, Plat in Team Arena, and at least Reach era and my K/D since then I'm basically the most average of the average player. Plat seems too high on the curve for me

This would be great if they added it in an upcoming patch: a lot of people have been asking for it too.
why clamber when the game can be designed to do this
Because there were always spots that were too high to reach, and they used to require grenade jumps which takes skill most general players don't have while taking down your shields. Clamber was created instead - this causes players to still be vulnerable to getting shot while doing it, yet making the higher jumps available to all.
I understand the annoyance but I also get why they did it.

Agreed and I like it much more than Regret (even though I'm finally coming around to the flow of that map).
I've actually found myself switching around between Warzone/Slayer/SWAT/Breakout to get some variety even though I'm normally a Slayer-only player. I think that has a lot to do with the low map count.

Finished the campaign yesterday. Overall really enjoyed it. Loved the varied levels and environments, the new Spartan abilities will make it hard to go back and play the older titles.
Starting to cut my teeth on mp now. Still haven't jumped into Warzone yet, that will probably be for tonight. I'm loving arena, though I can tell I need to work on my headshot skills.
The only thing I was disappointed by, which others have commented on is the lack of Master Chief. I liked Locke and Osiris, but for me Halo is about Master Chief. 3 playable levels with Chief out of 15, I have to wonder what 343 were thinking - this isn't a side story like Reach or ODST, this is mainline Halo. That being said, I'm excited to see what they do with Halo 6, but damn it'll be a long 3 year wait.

man you got really lucky with that last guy. if you'd been on the same plane you probably would've gotten wrecked.
The two I saw were different. One involved running around the rim of the map and jumping to a floating platform and the other took 2 ground pounds from the man cannon.
WTF Truth isn't in Slayer? That makes no sense. Where is it?
(I haven't played much Arena - been doing Warzone)
P.S. - Anyone notice the website is broken somehow - the REQ cards say to "Select a card for options" yet clicking them just makes them bigger. You can't do anything with them.
Yeah I can totally see a side game similar to ODST or Reach where you get to explore team Osiris. Halo 5 was weird with Chief taking the back seat during the campaign.

its not the lack of cheif that bothered me so much as the fact that the marketing had NOTHING to do with the story in the game. All that hunt the truth stuff, all the side plots from the actual hunt the truth storyline, completely irrelevant. all that happens here is cheif goes 'nah imma find cortana'. at least blue team missions were much longer than osiris missions. those 3 non-combat missions were a complete joke too. press x next to two characters, mission complete. fun?
Yeah I know. People are scared to use their pistol
Yeah, it's only for CTF only lol.

I understand the pro team suiciding in Breakout on stage now. It is just too rage inducing whenever it comes up in Arena.
What tournament is this from? Had no idea Halo 5 already had a live tournament.

the fact that theres a breakout playlist and a swat playlist but oddball and infection are completely missing drives me nuts

Call me bad behavior or whatever but I'll just screw around for a quick loss, not even going to try.

Has anyone else matched up in games with considerable lag/slow down? First I thought it was my connection since I had people watching netflix and stuff at home but now I've had two matches like this today and my internet isn't the issue. Unless something is wrong with my connection settings. It really sours the game for me and I hate backing out of matches.

last night, got REAL bad lag in warzone
Have the devs mentioned anything regarding a possible change to the Warzone bosses? It's absurd that my team and I can get a boss down to almost zero health and ready to finish him off and in comes an enemy Banshee with one shot to steal the kill.
Also, why in the hell is Breakout in Team Arena when it already has its own playlist?

I finished up my first run through if the campaign yesterday. I enjoyed it a lot. I've never cared much about the story in Halo games, so that didn't bother me. Only gripe would be the repetition boss battles.
The MP so far is a mixed bag for me. I'll have to play more to form a solid opinion. I do like the concept of Warzone a lot, and breakout can be fun when people don't quit.

Hey, man, don't be hating on the suppressor. GOAT ambush weapon, great for taking down Promethean mobs.
Uhhhh what. Are you sure that's not a railgun? Or a rare Sniper? Regular one acts the same way it always has.
The rag doll in this game is brutal. Plus the Sniper feels really heavy in this one.

I've done Legendary All Skulls runs for Halo 4, Reach, and 3.
How the fuck can the
be killed on Mythic difficulty?
Gonna be an absolute nightmare doing those sections.
How the fuck can the
Wardens (that can't be skipped)
Gonna be an absolute nightmare doing those sections.
it's not even throwing me really it's just my screen shakes and there is an explosion feel. As opposed to getting killed by BR/AR/Pistol/etc, where you just fall down. All old Halos you'd just see the streak through the air where the bullet went and you'd fall down.
With AI thats gonna be a living hell.
Probably be much easier with 1 or 2 coop partners to turn them
