I remember making a joke about the warden being a/the firefight boss...
Welp.
Welp.

So essentially the beta is just going to be a weekly playlist?

Which 100% means it's coming in the Remembrance of Reach update!

So next week we have R&C, DkS3, Destiny update, Division update, and a Firefight beta? Am I missing anything?
Adding my first year anniversary and birthday makes it one crazy week for me! I may even know if I got a job in another state next week! Slow down world! Yer spinning too fast!

Sure, why not? Doesn't sound anything like the classic ODST iteration of Firefight I really want, but whatever...anything to use up that massive pile of Warzone items collecting dust. If I hate it, I'm sure I can always transition over to the Gears4 beta and wash away the disappointment there.

It's my birthday next week too! April 14th to be exact. The Gears beta starts on the 18th I believe.

This sounds fucking amazing. I cant wait to try it.
How so? I don't see us getting both infection and firefight at the same time. I think they will do the beta and then take another month or two to polish and release it; hopefully working with all WZ maps.

That is possible as well, but this beta means Firefight is already present in this update.

Yep. This is going to bring me back to the game in a big way, I think.

Oh, anybody can play it? Well, ok then. Hopefully it's not available only on one map, and this beta is just testing it on ARC.
Was hoping for different playlists too like 4 players only and such and also more than 5 levels (at least 10).
Hopefully Warden Eternal won't become a boring and annoying experience just like with the campaign (after a while it becomes too much).
Still it's firefight so happy to give it a go.

People, please keep buying those Req Packs.
I am delighted that Halo 5 has no 'Season Pass'. The post launch support for this game is outstanding and all 'free'.
Great work MS.

Effing Warden Eternal. I'm stoked for this thing but please just remove him from everything Halo from now till the end of time
I see no issue with him in Firefight. You are engaging with 8 Spartans, which will be all at REQ Level 9 by the time he spawns. You will take him out in no time.
So many goddamn betas.

Love me some firefight.
Any link to the OP? Is it a press release? I don't see any outlets reporting on this.

Good idea. You should just rename the character actually.
That's not even funny, man. Too far. Too far.
lol
Forgot the most obvious, sorry:

My birthday too. 12th to be exact. So great we get so many games next week on our birthday week almost makes me feel young again. Almost.
Honestly, co-op is where Warden fights shine the best.
Still such a missed opportunity.

This part intrigues me -
You and your friends will tackle a new objective for each of the five rounds, with each task growing progressively more demanding along the way.
Round 1 - Strongholds - Secure your Base (
)
Round 2 - Boss Takedown in X amount of time
Round 3 - Take their FLAG and bring it home
Round 4 - Plant a bomb to stop their reinforcements
Round 5 - Dont die when the Warden Eternal and Friends come to say hi.

Wait... Is this true? I can't jump in with 3 friends and just play on our own? Or are you just saying that's what the beta is?
