KSI clan still arround. LMAO
Heh
I remember seeing them often in the Halo 2 clan playlist. I don't remember them being that much of a problem, but they obviously outlasted our Penny Arcade clan so good on them.

Sorry if it has been asked but I just started the game.
When you get these reqs with reskinned weapons do they actually have different attributes or are they just cosmetic? I got a req for a battle rifle with this same skin and it just seems like a regular battle rifle
I'm fucking shocked that it's still a thing.KSI was the running joke even during Halo 2 lol.
Promethean rounds cause extra damage to vehicles I believe. No damage boost against players I think

It states as such, but I dunno, it feels 'stronger' somehow.
Yes, these weapons are variants and have special features. For instance, a battle rifle might come with kinetic bolts that cause headshots to disintegrate opponents like a Forerunner weapon would. The weapons description should tell you about it's specific features.
Anything that has a special name is a legendary weapon and has special attributes. Fires 3 shots, no recoil, no descope, no charge up, one hit kill etc. It varies. Anything that has 3 stars as a legendary weapon is a mythic weapon and super rare.
You could have just gotten a BR skin and not a legendary battle rifle. I don't think there are any battle rifles that are legendary. Just normal, sentinel and Longshot, and each has different things like silencer, bayonet, kinetic damage etc.
Now the fun begins!
I thought that as well. I hope to see one soon.It's amazing that there hasn't been a video of it yet.
Ugh, go to play my usual Warzone with the rules that if I lose three times I turn off game for the day because I get annoyed easily in loss-streaks...2 losses in a row so far.

In just 1 hour Europe's finest takes on the 343 Pro Team live on @Twitch and Halo Channel! http://Twitch.tv/Halo
Now the fun begins!
Looks like some kind of showmatch will happen in less than an hour:
EU pros against 343i pros on US Servers. Gonna be interesting...

Yeah it was pretty cool and it just catches people off guard.It's amazing that there hasn't been a video of it yet.

Any word on a Social playlist yet? I want to play Halo, but I'm not stepping foot into the arena by myself.
I think the holy grail of matchmaking is an algorithm to manage loss streaks.
Like if you lose two or three in a row it gives you a cakewalk to get your confidence up.
Also, I'm not sure if this is already done, but would love to see them prioritize randos vs randos and groups vs groups.
The reality is that organized teams demolish random groups, so it can get pretty frustrating to play for an hour and just get wrecked math after match.
If you don't care about ranks why not? I have found Halo 5's ranking has produced some of the most fun games in recent memory. They'll always be a few stinkers here and there but on the whole it's been a blast. I play 99% solo.Any word on a Social playlist yet?

question: am I the only one who is completely irritated by the size of the radar now?

Do we actually know if Forge will allow us to place some of the Legendary weapons or any of the REQ weapons at all?
I'd love to see maps where the SPNKR or the Nornfang is the power weapon on the map, but even simple things like placing a Sentinel BR on the map.
Troll?
Agreed. Last night I finally played solo and my matches were incredible close (I'm talking losing by 1 kill) two games in a row, with different teams. Ranks work, people. They balance teams out. So good job Frankie.
Ah I see. I was under the impression you held off on going into Arena entirely. You just want a social playlist. Carry on.I do care about my rank though. And I'm in at least diamond for most playlists, so I'm generally matched against good people. Also, I don't want to bring a team down in the arena when I just want to fuck around. I don't enjoy getting teammates that go 3-12 when I'm playing seriously, so I don't want to potentially ruin somebody else's experience because I'm fucking around and they are trying very hard to improve their rank.
It's perfect as it is.
IIRC, no REQ weapons in Forge.
I'm okay with that, mostly, but I would like to see any weapon that has a unique model incorporated. Prophet's Bane, SPNKR, etc.
Such a stupid oversight. Can you imagine what kind of custom games you could make with the REQ weapons and vehicles? Snow maps using tundra vehicles, gametypes where people are given the special legendary variants of weapons. Imagine their blood gulch map where everyone is starting off with the CE legendary magnum?
Apparently Karl mentioned that you can't even turn off secondary weapons in custom games? So no snipers only etc. Or magnum only starts.
Haha man, you need a better way to determine how long you play... Typically winning in Warzone has nothing to do with how you perform individually...
How about basing it on your KDA or something?

sigh, one step forward and two steps back always with forge.

Financially, it wouldn't be a good move for 343 - they need people playing Warzone.
I've never seen a team capture the spire in warzone assault...
I keep giving this game mode a chance but I always come away feeling that it's extremely unbalanced. Almost always an easy win if I defend... Almost always a loss when I'm on the assaulting team.
Really? I think that Spire is one of the tougher ones to hold. Get somebody up top, get a team around the back to cut off reinforcements, set up a few people pinging exposed peeps at range, rush. Done.

Disappointing... Just because these are REQ weapons, doesn't mean that they have to be locked away from Forge.
Speaking of the Prophets Bane. Why was it aactually removed from Truth? It was in the Beta and now it's replaced by the normal Energy Sword. Why not use the new designed weapons?
