Right. Some people have no patience that the time to kill turns them off too. they want that cod 2-3 shot kill. or just the super quick ttk encounter.
You can have a super quick ttk in halo, if you

Yeah, the default controls are problematic and most won't change them to be better - the common public are generally very ignorant to finer settings. Don't know what kind of narrative you're trying to go with; no one was even talking about the pro team.
I am so bad for wanting Halo 5 to be loved by all that play it. I fell in love with the game once they released the controls updates and I'm sure many would as well.
I don't think controls have much to do with it... It's just that people have no clue on where to go.
I think a lot may have to do with UI... But it's mostly people generally having no idea what to do to win.
It would be neat if they had a team leader component that would reward addition XP to folks who compete objectives issued by a team leader.
I have no idea how they'd select the leader (Spartan rank, random, highest current score, w/e). But the game would really benefit from a way for experienced players to communicate with less experience players w/o mics.
Yeah, I know it's not related, but my point was that people can't even capture the bases. How does 343 expect them to adjust deadzones?
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah I see... They probably assumed that by the time the update came out people would have been somewhat accustomed to the default, and forcing a change would be jarring...
I honestly think many would be happy, or they could have made a toggle where people can switch between new and old. Nonetheless, I just want Halo to be enjoyed by everyone that buys it and not have to fight the controls.
Especially the Christmas noobs.
I was just messing with you.
Your wording made it seem like you implied them not being able to change controls is the reason they are bad at warzone.
And the proteam was only brought up because you loved to mention and blame them the first weeks after launch

Yeah, wording could have been more clear. And dude, I was bitter as fuck that the game played so bad lol. It's like the pro team took away my baby hahah. That said, couldn't be happier now with the controls and going for champion.
It's funny most of my opponents have such a high SR, while I am only 27. Crazy how far I fell behind.
Haha now imagine being me. Loving the game and especially the new controls, but not being able to play most of the games becuase the servers throw me out almost every second game
Got 2 Halo 5 bans today already because of quitting, I never once quitted in the game by intention.
Only the game disconnects Xbox Live is stable.
I wish I could grind for a rank

That sounds horrible. I thought they were addressing the server issues for Europeans?
I keep trying new settings but end up going back to h5 default because of aiming issues. Not sure its actually better settings (for me) or just a case of not being able to teach an old dog new tricks though.
To clarify I have adjusted deadzones, its acceleration which I'm leaving be.

Sadly my issue (and the one of many others if the Halowaypoint thread is any indication) is something special and even alongside the normal server issues
Could always make it DetectiveGAF for that synergyAm about to change my GT and want your opinions
What do you think of :XeQutor

It's really enjoyable when the teams are well balanced otherwise...
He said he was a big mp fan, but was clueless. Didn't know the maps, the modes or the system. He frequently runs his mouth about reviewers that don't know what they are taking about, even though he does the same thing.
We will probably get something tomorrow
Probably in a week or so.
I doubt it since tomorrow is new years day.
I have love and hate relationship with this game.
Arena is the best multiplayer experience right now on the consoles.
But being occasionally forced to play on American servers is frustrating as hell. Not being able to play within your own region is a massive issue that needs to be addressed. As far as I know, 343 has not even commented the EU dedicated server issue.
Imagine what would happen if you would tell European CS:GO/Quake 3 players that they need to play every third game on American servers with 150+ ping. Yet this is what the European Halo 5 players experience every day.

Because they weren't headshots
5 headshots would land a perfect kill. No need for a grenade bro.
But when most of the shots are head. Like 4 shots and a grenade. You can't live from that.
I die from one grenade. Sometimes not even closed to me.
Why not just upload the clips when you think it's lag/latency.
I've yet to see a clip that proves to me it's actually a big issue of EU players on US servers. Like where shots are obviously just flat out not registering... The only interesting clip I've seen was someone posting a 6 shot "perfect" kill with a pistol but I noticed that happens to me sometimes too. The game registers the shot, the enemy flinches like they take damage, but yet they don't... It's weird. But it's not a "shit I'm a disadvantaged EU player" thing.

That sounds good. Gonna think about it

Thanks
I just changed mine to StaticGAF
Throwing GAF in there gets around having your handle already taken and adds a bit of recognition as well

I forgot this was happening this weekend. I really enjoy watching Halo 5. I didn't care to watch so much in the past.

Comments are always a minefield. I read that Halo:Reach was a masterpiece in the comments of that video that was posted earlier. To each his own I guess, lol smh
There is no visible lag, which is why most of the players don't notice it. If they get steamrolled by American players on American servers they probably blame themselves for playing badly. The problem is that those American players had a ping advantage, which is not fair and it really sucks when you are trying to rank up.
You can notice the delay in your grenade throw animation, headshotting someone might require five shots instead of two, or somehow your enemy escapes what looked like a clear splinter grenade kill on your screen. Once you become aware of this, it is hard not to notice the much higher latency.
For a game that was created for competition, not being able to lock your server region (like in Titanfall) is a massive issue. Because of my PC gaming roots seeing something like this makes me want to vomit.

Mind you guys that this isn't exclusive to Australia/Oceania. South America and Asia are facing the same issues for more than 2 months now.

Lol Noctus is an awesome map. People hate it because they are strangely obsessed with the monument...
Even though the garages offer better access to the bosses... And are both fair game at mission start.
I've not played enough Noctus to really say one way or the other, but Jesus the amount of hate and trolling on Twitter for just about anything is ridiculous.
It's so odd, its not even like its anonymous unless you just have a random Twitter account. The internet will always be a crazy place.

Amazing! This dude made his dorm room in forge. Players are small-scale. Lighting and creativity is A+

I tried that map out with friends just for the hell of it, along with a McDonalds one, hilarity followed.
If only there was a way to create TTT from Gmod as a Halo 5 game type
It's amazing, I hope it's the first of many 'toy spartan' maps. Now we just need a way to play with these maps in matchmaking and it'll be clear sailing for H5 from here on out.
I think you mean many console shooters because only on consoles something like this would be acceptable. The main selling point of Xbox One, Titanfall and Halo 5 was the dedicated server support. This brings console gaming closer to the standards of PC gaming where the local dedicated servers have been a must since Quakeworld which was released in 1998.
When I am playing Halo 5 in my own region it works flawlessly, it is a very smooth experience and I have no complaints about the Halo 5 netcode.
For me the game is not unplayable or noticeably laggy when I am playing on American servers, there is probably a fair amount of lag compensation there which makes it less noticeable. But it is still unfair against the European players and the ping disadvantage is an actual issue in a higher level play. If you have two equally skilled players from two different regions, the player who gets to play on a local server will always win.
