a little bit of both. I mean I love swat, but spwans in swat are bad. really bad.
you are talking about swat, right XD?
agreed. I tire of people not on my radar shooting me in the back with no cover around because Warzone maps are so huge. I know you're probably talking about Arena though

BlopsIII was amazing fun (for me) in the Beta (played both XbO and PS4). And after hearing about all the crazy amounts of content in single player, zombies and multiplayer... it's on! Nightmare sounds amazing... and the streamers's MP gameplay today has looked stellar as well. 100% surprised i'm this excited for a CoD lol.

Completely agree 100%. It's only a problem when it is... but that's been say 1 out of 6 or so firefights for me... when it "is" a problem it's a complete wacky pull way off target WTF moment. Annoying when it occurs and I now agree (i didn't before i put in as many hours as i have) they must address this.
Ok so the final list for TS as it currently exists is:
Coliseum, Plaza, The Rig, Orion, Regret, Fathom
with Truth, Pegasus, Empire, and Eden being left off the list, correct?
Yeah we need to add some of those back to the list. Especially Empire since you can get TS in Team Arena on it already. Guessing the same is true for Trurh and Eden as well but not confirmed.

Also, Regret is in the team slayer playlist, but not team arena, for slayer, or anything else.
And Truth isn't available for Slayer in either the team arena or slater playlists. I had a lot of fun playing slayer in Truth back in the beta.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong on these though, as I could be.

Why don't they include all the maps in the slayer Playlist?
I'd like an answer on this... It makes no sense to me... Empire and truth were fantastic slayer maps in the beta and I can't understand why they are not just Included.

Well, I never liked swat, so I havent been in the playlist to taste that. One thing to know is that every Halo since Halo 2 have had a major patch, so, we shouldnt loose hope on those litle details that the game needs To be better.

This game has the same problem I had with Halo 4, where the lack of maps killed my interest in the game
Also, I think it's a bit deceiving to say that there are 6 warzone maps, when 3 of them are just smaller areas of the original maps.
It would be like DICE saying this is 3 maps, when it's actually 1

It's just the nature of the industry. DLC needs to come quicker and faster. I too am feeling the "mapathy" even more so because we played quite a few of these Arena maps in the beta as well. I feel it the most on Warzone though. That definitely needed 2-3 more maps at launch. Additionally, I think no Firefight and Spartan Ops also contribute to this issue, as does no BTB at launch. You have to play Warzone right now with AI and REQ's as the only way to get some vehicular warfare in.
I don't envy the sustain and post-launch team. They're probably in deep crunch working on BTB and Forge, getting the new REQ's ready as well.

Probably so they can release content that feels new in a slow stream. Keep players engaged longer if they see new stuff being added.
I'd wager that more maps will be added to each hopper after the release of COD to get players to come back.

Which is why they are saying they have three Warzone maps. It's even in one of the achievements, win on all three of the original Warzone maps.

For me , what makes Halo Halo is that you feel like super soldier and you live and fight longer than other FPS games.Halo 5 death times are fastest of any Halo games even faster than 4..When you face 2 AR users at the same time , it's impossible to live and beat them if they aren't morons..I miss longer TTK times.Halo 5 weapons have too much range and power..More i play it, more i realize how Bungie made really smart decisions back in the day.

6 maps for TS isn't bad. But yeah, why aren't we getting the rest of the maps if they're already in the game?
Because after Blops 3 comes out they can add them back in and it seems like the game has gotten a content boost, drawing players back to it.
A friend told me halo 5 was just like halo 4 and 3 and 2.. basically that its the same thing as ever, showed him this video.

I looked away for 30 seconds and the game put me into a breakout game, ugh.

I haven't noticed this on my end but my reasonable answer to this is that whoever is killing me over and over is likely having no problems doing it.
It's entirely possible it's your setup (your TV monitor's own lag) or network conditions as opposed to the game. Also if you're running at >60fps on your PC I can imagine it would feel less responsive.

It doesn't destroy your skill level, its just a huge annoyance.

Yeah haven't noticed it. I can put the sight over people without issue unless I'm in a panic. DMR is my favourite weapon and aiming with it feels great.

Wait...if you're supposed to be a badass super soldier, wouldn't it still make sense to die rather quickly against two other proficient super soldiers? Halo 5 standardizes Spartan abilities so everyone can equally earn longer lifetimes if they make the most of what they have. TTK seems the same as older Halo games if not longer once you get in the groove of using thrust/slide/shoulder barge/ground pound/clamber in conjunction with traditional Halo/FPS tactics and skill.
I know all I want is CTF on either Truth or Coliseum. Those games are so fun. But nope, slayer on empire 24/7.
That's halo for you. One person will tell you it hasn't change enough. The next will tell you it changed too much.
No way man. H5s TTK is pretty much on par with the rest of the series. Also Halo CE had the fastest TTK.
Bungie made some horrible decisions like dual weilding, armor abilities, bloom, player models with different sized hit boxes, turning the pistol into a nerf gun etc.
What TV are you guys using it? Im runing on a 23 inch and the response time is on time.
Bungie made a a Bloom DMR, a lead shot BR and Armor lock, trust me, Bungie wasnt any better.
Kill times are fine as far as I can tell, now because there is more balance in the weapon, people have more means to kill you, the one weapon to rule them all phylosophy that was in place since Halo 2 is gone, this is more in line to original Halo, where every weapon was useful.
And I said this before, no matter what Halo you are playing if you face yourself with two opposing team, you dont figth them, you run away, odds are you are going to get kill.

Yeah, what's with the lack of variance? I feel like I play the same map/game type combinations every 4 games. I want assault, king of the hill, infection... More maps... Eh.

Slayer needs to be taken out of Team Arena.
Played for a couple hours last night and got Slayer way too many times.
Breakout I don't mind because at least there is a flag.
Give me objective mode only list.

It has been Slayer and Stronghold all night for me. Not even a sign of CTF.
The TTK is consistent with 2 and 4, slower than CE, faster than 3, actual engagement time is the longest in the series due to mobility options.

I finished the story tonight. God, what a piece of shit. That last level was awful. Who thought the Warden was worth even one fight let alone 4?
They could have made this so good but it's just a mess.

Yeah. Coming straight from Halo 2 Ani I can safely say you almost never survive a 1 on 1 duel in that game. Weapons are super deadly and the shield recharge seems like an age. Halo 5 is so much better.

I thought that the story was stellar.
I cant wait for Halo 6, but will not make the mistake of thinking that promo material and commercials will have anything to do with the story itself.

Response time is irrelevant, im on a BenQ with ~12ms of input lag which is near the absolute best.
IMO Halo 5 should of been delayed to early December/late November. Black Ops 3, next week Fallout 4, then Battlefront. This games population is going to get slapped. I'm the biggest Halo fanboy/MLG tryhard and I'm bored as shit and tired of trying my heart out EVERY game.

Since all of the DLC is free, I wonder if they are going to stick with the traditional packs of maps, where you get 3 or 4 of them at once, or if they plan on releasing them one at a time at steady intervals? The traditional style usually had us getting a map pack every 8-10 weeks, right? So roughly ever two and a half months? But if I we got them released one at a time, we would be getting a map every two or three weeks. Which could be great.

Level 44 and still no sighting of a DMR.
Looks like I've hit the curfew again, no Halo after hours for Aussies it seems. :/

Yeah, my friends who I co-op'd through it summed it but pretty well by calling it Spartan Ops season 2. The story isn't anywhere good enough to warrant that ending.
