Snipers just doesn't feel right on the arena maps.... The rig and plaza were enough to send me to the btb playlist earlier.

Any servers in the Azores or Galapagos islands? Lol
Seriously, I am interested in seeing how this shakes out.
European teams are gonna play against european teams when playing online matches, NA teams against NA teams etc.
That's how it works in every other eSport. Why would it be different in Halo?
Edit. Oh you mean international teams. My bad

I've never watched e sports before. But If so that should be pretty good. When does it all start?
No, you was right first time mate.

It is. I just played the map again, strongholds on red team and our guy spawns on their side. Looks like its everytime, so red team has a guy near blue ghost.

I kind of wondered if this was how it worked - but I still RARELY see any people stick around for subsequent games.
Whereas I pretty much roll on for at least a few matches (hoping to play with the same people :/ ).

Hey man no worries, another time.
I was pretty underwhelmed by Team Snipers in this game; lack of a beam rifle or any secondary weapon/grenades leaves the mode feeling extremely singular and stale. Speaking of which, I don't think I've even seen the the beam rifle in Arena.
I think I've gotten to the point where I'm just about ready to shelve this game for now. I'm not that great at the game and I'm somehow always paired with teammates that are considerably worse, so it's getting to be more frustrating than fun. I'm keeping it in the hopes that they'll add some new content to entice me (firefight), but that might just be a pipe dream.

I wonder if when they bring firefight its like an evolution that is so goooood we cant believe it.
Probably wont be until the june update. Like the icing on the cake and thats it except weekly/monthly playlist updates rotations.

That's what I'm saying. They were so busy trying to get close to or get angles on the Warden, that we were killing them easily. I don't think they done any damage at all. The two players on my team took him out uncontested.
They were also blowing there energy on expensive weaponry, only to never get to use it... And it didn't hurt that the bases we had captured meant they had a long trek AND we knew where they were generally coming from.
lmao
Even if there was a thread anything related to HCS I'd just post in here anyway... Maybe make a gaming side thread for the final event or something but I don't see the need to make one now.

"Guys....... we have a Mantis and a Wraith on top of our base." hahahah too funny! We were a good pair rolling together.
That clip is the humor I love in Halo.

I have experienced love, and it is the Rail Gun.
Its also has way too much ammo, lol.

Whiplash definitely feels like it has about 2x the amount of ammo it should. Regular Railgun is ok I think.
It's okay
Currently 6th behind CoD, Fallout, Destiny, GTA and I think NBA.
Games are found pretty quickly though.

While I'm really enjoying team snipers, it's a shame they don't try using the btb maps. Could understand why they don't have the beam rifle as a drop, thing was pretty op in halo 4 snipers. Though since it's not a power weapon in any maps I haven't gotten to use it all that much. Hoping they will change up the power weapon spawns at some point to keep maps seem fresh or play differently.
when you're up 2-1 in CTF, your team grabs the flag, but the guy just sits in your base not claiming it for several minutes, eventually dies, flag's reset and the other team makes a comeback. that shits disgusting.
What happened to Battlefront 3? Did it's population drop really rapidly lately or has halo 5 eclipsed it.

Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
Anyone else still have disconnect problems? Happens to me every once in a while and kills my desire to play. No other game I play has problems.
This is what happens when you drunkenly fuck with your teammates.

It has the gameplay depth of tissue paper and I like Battlefront. Halo is a much better option though, I'd imagine Battlefront is doing well on Playstation.

or even better - when you are hiding with their flag in your base, and all three of your stupid teammates are just sitting there guarding you (while your flag is away / taken).
oh, Halo.
The second death makes it even funnier.
That's what exwife gets for trying to teabag me.

I stopped playing Assault because of exploits, don't know how people enjoy ending games so quickly like that. I hate being on either side of it.

I think when they initially talked about seasons they said it would only be select playlists. So it's possible that it's new playlists or some of the existing ones.
It looks like it's doing okay, but it's up against stiff competition.

Im going to assume team arena, slayer and breakout will reset every month.

On a completely unrelated note, Warzone Assault has now turned into a game of sneaking past the enemy team and groundpounding their shield doors for six minutes
Yeah I'm assuming they're going to just keep rotating the playlists during the seasons then. But someone on waypoint forum said that it'll be an individual playlist. Guess we'll find out.
"When Seasons debut later this year, your CSR in certain playlists will be reset and you will play your placement matches again. You get a fresh start each month to try to prove yourself in select Seasonal Arena playlists."
