maybe the game could keep your past rank for the 10 placement matches in the new season then work out a balance for your new refreshed rank from those.

It doesn't have co-op though, right? Because that was legitimately a tense and really fun experience with SA.
IIRC in SCII it was mostly used to give you the change to place up higher earlier, because by the end of the season you usually calcified and were unable to get enough points to rank up out of your division. I never worried about getting stomped in next season placement matches. I have no idea what's the plan for H5 though.
Honestly rank resets always just dissuade me from playing ranked though, because usually there's a major function of grinding to get enough matches, and that doesn't interest me.
Quite possibly my finest round of Breakout, do y'all agree?
Because a completely clean slate would throw off the matchmaking system, which relies on persistent data.
Now if people just wanted to be able to erase their Spartan rank, which is just an XP tracker, that would be fine...
Very well played
much hype. very delivered.
As mentioned earlier, 343 can keep the back-end stats for MM and reset the front-end.

As long as it's harmless for the rest of the community I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I can't really see the point either. My K/D has pretty much been bang on 1.0 since I finished my placement matches thanks to the matchmaking. I imagine you'd be back at 1.0 very quickly after resetting your stats for the same reason.
I'm not advocating for myself, just think more options properly implemented never hurt anyone.
I really like how your spartan glows red when you equip a legendary weapon.
If there any reset going on, this should be done, keep the true-skill intact (which I think it works differently than front end ranks) and reset the Placement ranks.

can Speedy Blue Dude teach me how to boogie down the pro blvd of halo 5? I mean.. DAyum, in all of them?!
gratz man.
gratz man.
Isnt it because it is also equipping a damage boost? Either way, it does look bad ass.

Wow, I didn't even think of combining a legendary or even rare weapon for that matter with damage boost.
I'M DONE. I'M FINALLY DONE. ;~;
i champion my halos like i champion my grillfriend, 69 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Damn dude that's impressive.
I've not really tinkered with damage boosts, the first tier didn't feel like it did anything. But remember you'd need to have enough energy to get it after calling in a high level weapon. So you'd either need to camp with it or go pro and stay alive.

I voted for rumble rockets because CTF is never going to win unless all three voting options are CTF and even then it still might lose.

I don't recall them ending this early though. I may have forgotten though.
That's essentially what they already do. Like I said resetting the Spartan Rank and commendation systems might be something folks are interested in, like the prestige systems in COD. But I don't see the value in erasing game history altogether.
They are made in forge, which doesn't allow for detailed textures atm.

Why are the maps so ugly in BTB?
Because they were created with the Forge tool.

BTB maps are all forge maps, a giant empty map with lots of custom parts to design the layout.

I tried to play with speedy but my connection was too bad to find a game. Played him in a friendly 1 v1 I can't say how good or bad he is cause I think a blind man could beat me with my terrible ping.. But he is a nice guy. Put me in America and I think I'd beat him on a 1 v1 lol.
Actually, I suck at 1 v 1s so not sure. I haven't played the game on a good connection unfortunately.
Hope my connection will be better next time speedy. Hope you can play good with me. I'll be able to call put really good when I get use to the call outs.

I'd say slim, on the other hand it wouldn't be too difficult to work them into the REQ system... I don't think I've ever seen a player-controlled Phaeton in WZ so it would be nice to have some more flying vehicles.
I miss the flying vehicles of old
I would still love to see some of the stuff from Halo Wars slip into the mainline series, but I suppose they're trying to keep a short and concise list of vehicles in the sandbox.
