Bring back clan matches so us randos don't have to deal with the assholes.
Also btb games without plasma nades are dumb as fuck what are they thinking.

Yeah that is no fun at all just another thing that makes no sense at all.

There aren't any on map?
Ragnarok, Exile, Vortex certainly have them but they're in somewhat inconvenient locations.
Settler and Meltdown have Pulse Grenades. Also located inconveniently.
They're on the map just oftentimes poorly placed positions. See the ones on exile for example right out in the open with no cover.

I added another medal to my Sabotage player reward system.
Lobby test will be Sunday night.
Fast Break: Lock a generator 3 seconds or less after it finished cooling.
Lobby test will be Sunday night.
This looks like fun I can't wait to try it it already sounds better than than domination. By Sunday night do you mean GMT or PST? If it's the former then I'll happily test it with you.

I dunno about time zones but it'll probably happen a couple hours earlier than HaloGAF customs used to so it should be alright for you.

There are, but not in hand but on the fartest not danger zones like the fountain in ragnarok.
the second one looks like He reused some ideas from Requiem. I wonder if they follow the floating towers design.
I've almost mastered those as well.
I think we had a user post a similar problem in the Waypoint forums. Here's a video of someone who was having similar problems but was able to find a solution.

There seems to be a nice little bug where the post game stats last night and Halo Waypoint forgot I played a game on Vortex.
If it was a join in progress match it happens sometimes, I've had 3 or 4 games not show up, if I joined after the start. If it wasn't then I've got no ideas.

I can't wait for 60 fps Halo on Xbox One.
After watching my brother play Titanfall I'm still all for 30fps. 60fps makes everything feel like a 90s Quake game to me.

Are you serious?
...Yes. I vastly prefer the look and feel of 30fps as opposed to 60fps on any screen, whether it's movies or games.
I think you would feel differently if you had the same game side by side. 60fps is a must for this gen. No more horrible frame rate forge maps like in Halo 4. Or even worse, that first DLC where frame rate hits around 12 fps when looking through the center of the map.

Halo 4 isnt 60 fps...It isnt even 30fps.
After playing Halo 3/Reach/4 for the first time in 5 or so months:
-Halo 3 - is still good, a lot of cheaters now though. Still love the graphic style.
-Reach - NBNS is awesome, love the sniper still, liked the dirty medals.
-Halo 4 - Played 4 games I think, quit all of them. Proving Ground with Radar? Why? BR sounds like my dog farts.
So yea, bring on H2A/H5.

Yeah I know. Which is why 60fps would probably be even worse for someone like me.
edit: Something to do with the colors I think lol

Bad news everyone, tonight is El Clasico (Barcelona vs Real Madrid) which means I'll probably be too drunk/
to get a lobby going :/
I'll try to host the lobby sometime later this week.

Just 100% Halo 2. Now onto Spartan Assault and I'll have 100% across all Halo games.
I can finally put that Vista crap behind me and stop saying "Halo 2 achievements don't count!" ;]

Wooh, NeoGAF shit posts? I'm honored.
Well no matter the frame rate I think consistency is more important than anything else--if Halo 6 or whatever needed to be sub-1080p to maintain a solid 30 or 60 or 48 or 120 or whatever frame rate, than I would prioritize keeping that frame rate over anything else visually. It's like how Hulu drops your resolution to keep the frame rate steady. You're going to notice the choppiness more than blockiness.
I don't suffer from motion sickness in real life, but I dunno if that's my issue with 60fps stuff. It's not just first-person, because Minecraft regularly runs at 40-60fps on my PC and it doesn't bother me. Maybe it's just my background in animation and film where I spend my time staying away from stuff that makes your work look like a crappy soap opera.
I completely understand the arguments for 60fps, and I don't think Halo 5 going 60fps is going to kill my love of the franchise or whatever, but I expect I'll still vastly prefer the "more cinematic" frame rate.

I was playing TItanfall by my cousin as well and noticed how quickly it moved with the 60 fps. But I think it was more due to the sensitivity and the speed of the game itself. It'll work great for Halo since it's a little more methodically paced. Can't see it as a bad thing to run better.

This stone-age mentality can't die soon enough.
Please, explain how I'm "stone-age".

It doesn't even have textures if you scope in across some maps.

I can see halo 5 sacrificing resolution to have locked 60fps.
Any battlefield 4 players here? Got it on 360 and it's pretty fun.
Is it vastly better on x1? The higher player count and I'm assuming better graphics? The 360 version looks kinda terrible

30 FPS is stone age!
Its gonna take longer to get High Framerate in movies, if it will happen at all, but every game would benefit from having more frames.
I'm playing Dark SOuls 2 now and I'm pretty sure they unlocked the framerate there. Some areas you can get it to hit 60 like and it looks so smooth.
There was also some post Frankie made saying after he playtested the new 60fps halo he couldn't go back

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it not true that the 24p standard was chosen in the late 1920s because it used the least amount of film while maintaining proper synchronization with sound tracks? So the film standard we use in 2014 was born out of economical and technological limitations of the 1920s? And because it has been used for almost a century now people just associate a low framerate with the look of film even though it's blurry as fuck in any sort of fast-paced action scene?

RE: BF4 The Xbox One version dosnt look so hot in some places.
RE:H5 If I can have rock solid 60fps I'll take 720p no question. Metal Gear looks pretty good but the silky smooth frame rate makes all the difference.

Yeah I'd happily take 720 and locked 60fps.
Those resolution argumenta on gaming side is some of the corniest nerd shit I've ever seen.
The majority of the market don't care about it
