It does support it. Make sure both your Xbox and your Xbox app are up to date. Just forewarning, you're probably going to have 1+ second input delay if you do wired => wireless.

i turn on the xbox one and then it connects fine to the xbox app.

From Reddit, Bravo responded:
"Hey all, this was indeed the update knocking at your door. It's eager to get out. Some of you may have seen this prompt due to some backend launch preparations that are now underway from our services and game teams. We’ll give you a heads-up when we’ve got an exact release time for this week!"
I think Bravo is just being safe by saying this week, it's not even noon at the 343 offices and they're already doing prep work. I would expect it later today or tomorrow (I really hope it's today though!)

Gotta love the aim acceleration making you go from a smooth 4 to 10 in an instant, completely whacking your aim. It's so damn hard and irritating when a guy thrusters in close quarters, aim goes completely haywire.

Quinn said it was coming today, and it's pretty early in the day in 343's timezone. I would bet all of my Ultra Rare Gauss Warthogs that it will release today or tomorrow.
Bravo is just being safe by saying 'this week', he doesn't know precisely when the preparations will be complete and the update will drop.
Sounds like wishful thinking but I hope you are right.

So when can we expect the triumphant return of Rocket Race?
Anybody?

So I watched the final Sprint and saw dev Warzone footage with Buck and Locke dialogue for the Spartans.
After this, I just feel like I'm being trolled.
343 pls make voice packs a thing.

Who knows but i'd imagine it's pretty far down their list when you think of all the "normal" modes missing from launch. lol
We would first need actual gametypes.
Hope the forge update is substantial. Not sure if 343 made any comments about adding the old gametypes back and file sharing.
Would be embarrassing that we get another 343 halo game that doesn't Come even close to feature parity with halo 3 or reach

Amen.... loved the little bit of H5 i played (little over a 100 mp games) but it's little more than a glorified Beta at the moment compared to past Halo titles. Will be awesome some time in the future i know... but there's not much to do now if you're not a fan of Warzone (barf).

They can keep all the features they want (of the ones that are currently missing) if it means a game as well balanced and fun as Halo 5
Especially with the intention to bring most of it back as it would seem they have.inoperativ

I would be VERY surprised if they put this much effort into Forge without introducing a solid file sharing system.
Finally home, watching it now
Edit: There's something so damn satisfying about the little sound effect that plays when a title pops up on screen during these sprints. I want it as my message tone.

that feeling when you get two assassinations on breakout

Just did a survey from Microsoft regarding halo 5 with some interesting questions.
I urge everyone to do the same If they get it.

Matchmaking in this game is a joke. It keeps on matching full teams of 4 against a bunch of random players and then it matches players in Onyx against low level diamonds or even plats because they are in a team.
I'm not the greatest player in the game either but I can hold my own however it seems some people have got into diamond by mistake and are stuck there which now also means you get them on your team against Onyx players. This system seems seriously flawed.
I have been having fun when playing with at least one other good teammate but on my own this game is painful to play matchmaking.

I got the same. Some good questions in there.
She shitted on Osiris life in the last mission. Best moment in the game

Oh well, at least the Sprint came out today

I don't mind this at all actually, now I can play some Fallout today without feeling like I should be playing Halo.
Tomorrow is my guess.
It's not a particularly well written campaign imo.
The ideas and general ideas are cool but the story and writing don't handle them well

Heroic difficulty is piss easy compared to Legendary.
And by the same token more fun, as per the traditional run and gun style of Halo.

Yeah there does seem to be more of a gap, although honestly I dunno if it's because heroic is much easier or Legendary's much harder. After a while the difficulties of each game sort of mush into each other, and I think it becomes more about which sandbox you like most and which game you play the most (witness: the people who say CE is the hardest when I consider it the easiest behind ODST.)

I assumed
the Domain only partly healed her rampancy since she was so far gone by the time she got access to it.
Fast paced shooter aint suited.
Uncharted 3 vs Last of Us situation IMO.
They tried the banter approach with COD moments.
I ll give them that.
Considering euro team wiped out 343 pro team you should just drop out and go pro and get hired as the new pro team member

Heroic feels like Normal difficulty to me. Legendary is about the same as Reach and Halo 4.
I played a few games with a pro player yesterday and one of the games I got one kill more than him. I'm pro now. I shall join and lead the team no sweat

Because from
her perspective, she's taunting the villains.
Which is a totally above board thing to do.

1400 points, 44 kills, 3 boss takedowns. And we lose because I am the only guy at Hestro and Warden.
Damn..
Damn..
Man I simply can't play Arena with assassinations on. I always pull one off when I don't want to... But it's gotta feel rewarding to get one in breakout.
Getting two, even better.

this match has to be overseas, i'm sticking several shots into people and die before they do, one guy was shooting his AR WHILE dashing, that has to be latency
I've given up trying to figure out the logic behind how 343i communicates. It's maddening really.

Fuck. Up to the second warden fight and it's even harder than the first. How are they all meant to be done on legendary? This is worse than WaW on Veteran.
