Looks like Spartan Companies will have a special helmet and armor. https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/games/halo-5-guardians/updates/Cartographers-Gift

Link also includes other info on the December update, such as an all new social playlist launching with Social BTB.

Awesome, thanks for posting.

I don't mean to be a worry wart but....


Why has the file browser not been talked about?

because there isnt one.

you can download the maps of people youre following when you look at their service record but thats it

Ooh nice to have it all in written form. I'll give the Forge info a proper read through later.

Good to see Spartan companies are getting some much needed attention. We just need in-game incorporation and jobs a good'n.

 

[Glass]

Great to hear Spartan Companies are being expanded upon.

That other social playlist... how high do we dare dream?

 

[Strider]

Damn. I need a Spartan company now. I applied to HaloGaf but I guess I am not worthy

Well at least that functionality works...


Hoping 343 has plans to get an actual filebrowser going with waypoint functionality.

Would be nice if we got a modern Halo game with feature parity from 2007.

I already quoted you once on this, but there was a leak with a File Share system in August: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=186612707&postcount=5147

I hope their plans didn't change since then, because having to follow people would be stupid and it would proof that they haven't learned anything from Halo 4 or the MCC in terms of File Browser.

Yup.

 

[IHaveIce]

Need update. 343 pls

 

[Karl2177]

I think Karl and Nokyard have shown interest. Probably working together on one, if no one else claimed it.

Yep. I have it written up and will finish the graphics tonight. Once I'm done with it, I'm sending it off to Nokyard to make sure everything is correct.

Forge info is just a rehash of what we already know.

I have something cooked up that will help HaloGAF share files with minimal work.

 

[therealminime]

Boy I sure do love when my team decides I shouldn't be in a tank. What's missing from this clip is another 30 seconds of him plasma pistoling me from far away. People suck sometimes.

[Feel the Swift]

You scumbag, you absolute scumbag.





Also added a few more people to the HG company. Have a few more spaces left.

I messaged you on there, would appreciate the add!

Looking forward to it. I can't forge myself but I am looking forward to seeing what people come up with.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Yeah, i can totally see the update dropping Wednesday.

 

[Tawpgun]

Damn. I need a Spartan company now. I applied to HaloGaf but I guess I am not worthy

I think with Spartan Companies getting stat tracking and commendations it only makes sense to purge some filth.

Elzar will be reviewing everyones service record to see if you meet the companies qualifications.

Also make me mod

or admin, heckfu doesn't even play the game.

 

[User 73706]

SPNKr Prime sounds OP as fuck. It basically turns you into CE-era Chief wielding CE-era rockets.

 

[link1201]

It's nice to have such a big update right before the holidays. I am really curious about the Spartan co. armor and helmet. Very curious indeed.

 

[Tawpgun]

CE era rockets were kinda slow.

From what I hear this basically fires tank shells.

When it comes to Warzone, I welcome anything from the CE era with open arms.

 

[Tha Robbertster]

The issue is that the Warzone REQ bundle can't be game shared. Yeah, the download for it will appear on your dashboard, but it's not associated with your account. Gotta buy your own I'm afraid

Aaah yeah that's quite logical. Although from what I saw, I can't actually download it anymore. It doesn't show up in the REQ store. Not that I was planning on buying it.

 

[Strider]

I AM WORTHY

Done

Thanks

I knew it was a bad idea to give him power.

Sorry Tawp, only allowed 4 mods at a time.

Imma watching you Over.

[backflip10019]

Every single BTB map is going to be made in Forge, isn't it.

 

[Trup1aya]

Every single BTB map is going to be made in Forge, isn't it.

It's looking that way. No comment from 343i either way, so it's just gonna assume the worst.

It would be so nice to see a BTB with the fidelity of Overgrowth

 

[Killmanjaro81]

New assassinations!

 

[Digital Limit]

Which map is that in the top assassination?

 

[Ferny]

New assassinations!

Sooooooo good

 

[Killmanjaro81]

Which map is that in the top assassination?

They're both on Overgrowth

I love the Nice Try one. Cracks me up.

HaloGAF company administration skewed too much in Europe's favor. Someone think of the poor americans. Last time we weren't represented fairly didn't end too well for yall.

Haha

Yeah, I'll deffo be changing the mods/admins and players as the we continue.

Want it to be active as possible, that includes me too.

 

[ZeezbruhTV]

So hyped for the update, plz hurry!! H5 was 6th on XBL last night WEBACK

 

[Vico]

Won't take my xbox back home for the holidays. Will only be able to play the update in january.

 

[see5harp]

Didn't get to play all that much but it was a nice surprise to see that there are finally some sort a daily reward. I understand not wanting daily challenges that mess with the competitive nature of arena but challenges that encourage nornal play would be nice.

 

[jem0208]

BTB needs join in progress.

I don't care if you occassionally join a game late and lose, the number of games I've played which have been completely ruined by quitters is ridiculous. Playing strongholds on basin at the moment and half my team has quit.

 

[Haruko]

Aaah yeah that's quite logical. Although from what I saw, I can't actually download it anymore. It doesn't show up in the REQ store. Not that I was planning on buying it.

I think there's a bug where having the bundle installed on the HDD makes the game not display it as available to purchase. I'm guessing it's to help prevent people from finding a way to buy a 2nd bundle which won't give them any packs.

I'd try uninstalling the bundle from your HDD and seeing if it appears.

It's coming. it'll be a JiP window. so don't expect someone to join at the very end. thats my understand atleast.

 

[BraXzy]

Minimum requirements for HaloGAF 3.0 K/D with 9 days playtime minimum right? It might be time for me to migrate.

 

[Feel the Swift]

343i's has to give us at least ONE original BTB map.

New assassinations!

Once I get this one I'll definitely turn assassinations back on.

Done

Thanks! Will definitely be down to work with anyone in the company towards getting group commendations if anyone else is. Also I hope the company armor+helmet is actually unique for each Company..it'd be cool if you could customize the skin with an emblem or something.

 

[VincentMatts]

Will i unlock a DMR this century?

 

[Tawpgun]

Will i unlock a DMR this century?

$2.99 or $1.99, your choice.

 

[Rand0m TAG]

how do you check REQ certification?

 

[VincentMatts]

$2.99 or $1.99, your choice.

Ive bought, i never get one.

- How do we make sure not everyone is using a DMR instead of a BR?

- Lets not give them one.

Game balanced.

 

[Diablohead]

I'm starting to believe that longshot BR is better, it's lower req and is a laser when scoped, it's a little too good when you go against someone with one and can't hit them back in warzone.

I love the DMR but man does it feel weak when I use it yet I die in a second going against one.

 

[BleedOrange]

Pegasus is even growing on me. Really disliked it at first.

Pegasus is better than The Rig and Fathom combined.

 

[Madness]

Will i unlock a DMR this century?

Yup, have like 9 different BR, 4 SMG, 5 AR, and no DMR either, the one thing I really want. I'll probably get it soon though. I can feel it.

 

[Feel the Swift]

Pegasus is better than The Rig and Fathom combined.

How? At least Fathom is symmetrical.

 

[see5harp]

I did finally unlock a DMR but I don't play Warzone, so it's a waste. All I want is a pistol skin.

EDIT: To be honest there's something about every map I really like. Pegasus can be really fun at times. Def better than that one map Orion that was in the rotation.

 

[BleedOrange]

How? At least Fathom is symmetrical.

Fathom has two huge choke points with double Promethean grenade spawns 2 feet away. It's fucking awful.

It would be slightly better if Promethean grenades weren't clearly overstrong. Or if total count on the map was halved. But, still, only slightly.
