also make it possible to switch to another spartan team member before the mission and use loadout req pack weapons.

Am surprised there is no progression system in this game at all when it was one of the best parts about Reach. The Credit system was addictive and rewarding; anything you did gave you cR and that let you buy a slew of things, from armor and attachments to dumb stuff like effects and firefight voices. There were also the daily and weekly challenges which - while not without their own problems like forcing specific playstyles - gave players a reason to go through diferent aspects of the game each day. I looked forward to Firefight Thursdays, and I know many people who ran full parties just to chase after Inheritor. And that lasted over 2 years
Halo 4's "SR" system barely lasted a few months and now they've done away with it entirely. So now there's little incentive to go through the Campaign again, and with the way the lobbies are laid out currently, not much reason to play Arena for a skill rank either. Warzone is the only mode with a tangible payoff by way of using and unlocking REQs, but I find the progression tied to that is way less satisfying than what we had before.
For all the efforts to modernize Halo, they didn't make much progress in their investment systems.

This too. Also, campaign theater please.
Frankie - I will pay real monies to buy REQ packs if you guys put in campaign theater.
they said this is not possible because of some sequences or something like that.
oh and give us voice packs for MP. I would love a nathan fillion voice in mp to tell me "last man standing". make it 2,99€ or something like that.
Grifball on dedies might actually make that mode worthwhile.
Eh, oddly enough I don't really care getting thrown into a match where my team is getting steamrolled in Warzone. I just don't use any reqs and collect my req points at the end of the match.

So since I'm doomed to junior till next year I can't make a thread but I'll ask here.
I love love love the multiplayer of Halo 5, gives me that adrenaline rush every time I play and very few games can do that for me. So my plan is to invest a lot of time in this game.
But, Call of Duty Black Ops 3 came out today, the impressions on the multiplayer side are positive throughout gafers and reviews alike and I've got this itchy feeling to go and buy the damn thing.
Later this month Battlefront comes out, I wanna play that too, the beta left a very positive vibe for me.
Long story short, I'm 35 yo, have very limited time for my gaming addiction and have NO FUCKING clue how to cope with all these multiplayer games. The quality of each is undeniable and wanna play them all(Halo being at the top of the list though). How do I do it? Take turns? One day for Halo, one for Cod and so on? Any advice would be welcome, I'm kinda loosing it lol.
Also, would the 3 very different game types have a negative impact on my skill/gameplay? I would think so with all the switching between games.

I bought COD and played the first mission. what an explosion fest. lol
besides that..yes take turns. for example monday is halo night, tuesday cod, and so on.
or you play what you feel like. halo and COD are so different that you will have days on which you don't want to play halo but COD and vice versa.

So, how likely do you think this community is to survive Black Ops 3?

Lost a Warzone match by one point. Feels bad man.
At least I finally unlocked a new visor, too bad it's green.

I'm here to stay..if they fix the other problems soon. like pre-orders not showing and other little stuff like oddball/social playlists/objective only arena.

I'm sure it will be fine. I'll be over there the majority of the time now until we get a serious playlist map/mode infusion. H5 needs more maps and modes in Arena. Give me Oddball, Griffball, Juggernaut, Infection and assault... with more maps that arent just night/day/effect re-skins and fix the map rotation so they all play and are playable in each playlist...
i'd play a lot more Arena.

Kinda interested to see what this new Forge can do. Only really got into Forging during the Reach days and even then I only really finished two maps, of which I can say only one was anywhere near decent. Think it was called Cascade, not sure.
Never even tried the Halo 4 Forge.

It'll be fine. This is the best Halo has been in ages.
The cod kids were never going to stay anyway.

there might be an initial dip, but if halo keeps updating long after people have dipped their toes in COD i think itll maintain

Seeing a pro player on twitch pick up the plasma caster and NOT charge it, it's like someone putting their shoes on the wrong feet.

You can charge that thing?
Holy shit. No wonder I always felt like it was just a useless weapon. What does charging it do?

It becomes a sticky with cluster explosion, uses 1 ammo.
what really? I need to try this.

Funny when he realized he was never going to get in range and you basically had him. He never even fired a shot lol.
the misinformation saying to just go for silver while ignoring the basics of bronze is amazing. it happens a lot in this thread. oh well. some will learn and some will continue on with the nonsense. it's to be expected i guess.

I don't understand the hate for Orion in anything besides SWAT where the spawns seriously negatively impact the game. I just got done finishing the last three games of FFA I needed to be ranked and all three were on Pegasus, which is objectively a far worse map and is remaining in rotation. It being FFA didn't help, with spawns literally able to be camped while people are staring at you as you spawn. Then the fact that it spawns new players in your previous spawn point after you walk ten feet away only to be trapped between a newly spawned enemy you didn't expect to be there and the guy with power weapons camping in front of where you spawned.
Take this steaming pile of shit out or rotation entirely and leave Orion in for everything but SWAT imo.

Its a bit counter intuitive

Wouldn't the fact that you can break the map and get out of its boundaries be the reason they took it out?

I wasn't aware of this. How could you do it and would it be exploitable in matches?
Yeah, they definitely needed to prep people for the way they worked. It was hard to figure it out but once I did, man I'm rolling in stuff now. Good pwer weapons and just selling the rest.

Didn't even know, all i knew was take over railgun base and defend it and you would win 80% of the time.
Started doing this yesterday
yeah it was amazing. I had like 76 needlers piled up and while I like it in Arena matches, find it somewhat worthless in Warzone. Once I relaized all of that stuff was just sitting in there made sense to let it all go. Of course, they need a bulk sell button, but I guess we'll see that soon enough.

Saw a video of a guy using ground pound to get past the killbarrier and into the map itself.
