X post for one of my 2-8 player maps based on the Genesis Campaign level. It's still messy please understand

You can really tell the campaign mission inspiration, nicely done.

Is it wrong I want you to add those campaign animated, appearing and disappearing teleporter platforms?

Maybe on another map I can do that, not sure how it'd fit here though.

One detail i want to snag are these Terminal things. Need to find the right pieces.

I'm actually trying to work this entire area into the map somehow to replace one of the boring hallways.

I just saw your video Zoba, nice work your map looks pretty good

It's my least favorite WZ map (looks nice though). Too much revolves around monument, whatever team has that pretty much will win the game and it's incredibly hard to take back unless the other team is completely brain dead. It also doesn't help that most of the AI bosses spawn around monument. All Noctus turns into is br/dmr spam until people get snipers too.

Shit tier design.

Even Halo 1 had better designed maps than this, and that was the first game in the series.

It's like people who played Call of Duty designed these maps. Just add in those rewards for UAVs and what not, and you probably couldn't differentiate.

My bad, I was thinking of the cutscenes where Osiris and Blue teams race through the teleporters, way earlier in the game.

I like the top image aesthetic from your screenshots. Maybe a forerunner enclosed room with an automatic door?

 

[Twilight Gap]

Messy ha, that's one of the nicer looking Forge maps I've seen in H5. Great job so far. Only thing that looks bad really is the ground textures but Forge gonna Forge nothing to be done about that, especially when building a natural map.

Thanks, yea it looks nice because terrain actually has textures, but then it's difficult to make it smooth. Don't want to worry about that yet though until the pathing is complete.

 

[Mix]

on the topic of customization options, has 343 discussed at all why they refuse to make Chief's current armor an option for multiplayer? It's easily my favorite suite in the whole game and it's also the only one of all the characters in the game that you can't wear in multi...

 

[ZeezbruhTV]

I think I'm in the #2 spartan company, can't wait for dat achillies helmet. I don't think we will make it at launch (lv 3 assassinations etc).

Also hcs rostermania, has me like wat.jpg.

 

[Nutter]

Only thing I would change about the AR/Automatics is getting rid of the bonus headshot damage.

Yes, lets take out something that rewards aim from an auto weapon.

They should add the Chief armor on one of the monthly updates but the armor was also missing on Halo 4 so maybe they won't do it , in the meantime I would also like to see the return of the sage color

 

[Trup1aya]

PR will spin anything to make it sound good.

Even with the drop off in popularity, on a moderately selling console, halo5 is the best selling exclusive.

Exclusives in general aren't the big sellers they once were. Other 1st parties would love to have a game do H5 numbers...

I keep hearing this, but I have never found it to be true. Noctus is actually my favorite Warzone map because all bases are easily accessible from either home-base.

I've won matches where my team didn't try to capture monument at all, we just held on to both garages, which gave us easy access to nearly every boss and keep the enemy all spawning like fish in a barrel.

 

[im_dany]

Playing forge remakes reminded me that we need Halo CE maps on BTB.
If I could play some Death Island, Danger Canyon and Sidewinder in an Halo 5 playlist that would be great. Halo CE had the best maps for big teams action.

Yes, let's take out something that is more dumb luck than actually aiming a spray weapon.

 

[BraXzy]

I still can't believe how much drama has gone down recently in the pro scene, and there's probably still loads more yet to come.

I barely followed any of it until recently, boy did I pick a time to sign up.

Roster locks needed to be a thing before the HCS even started. These pro's are way too accustomed to the old MLG/AGL mentality that you can switch willy-nilly.

Honestly, the drama probably helps the scene... It creates story lines and fosters discussion.


Anyway, is it me, or did they already increase the garbage collection time in Warzone...

I died, and casually ran back to my X and found my whiplash still sitting there.

 

[jizzlobber]

I suck so much, and watching these pros on twitch is the perfect illustration.

Watching commonly's stream just now, someone comes sliding in to get the touch on a flag, he no scopes him somehow as he slides in... amazing play, it was no accident but that has to be a bit of a fluke.

For me it seems random. Since sometimes my weapon is still there, so every time I'll run back, just in case. Most cases it's gone though.

You're right... I spawned a norfang, died immediately, and it was gone when I got back. My body and grenades were still there though, so maybe someone picked it up.

Ouch that hurts a lot.

 

[Trup1aya]

I prepared my mind for it before I spawned. I may have even willed it to happen.

 

[RedSparrows]

I'd assume someone picked it up.

Noctus works really well in my experience: it's open, but it gives you far more options for getting around than a map like ARC (the weakest Warzone map for me, needs more routes), where three bases capped = death sentence, except in extremely rare cases.

Also don't really get the COD comparisons, given that series's penchant for ultra-CQC maze maps.

This caught my eye.

Halo with unreal engine.

Second one is cool and stylised. First one, the Youtube compression is so bad it's really hard to judge. Doesn't seem to look any better then what we have in 5.

 

[rakkadakka]

Wait, there's no option to wear H5 Master Chief armor in MP?

Fucking lol

Just realized that I'm pretty much going to be stranded in the office , alone, for the next day and a half... But didn't bring my xbox with me.

They did offer a reason why it was campaign-only in Halo 4. The same reasoning might apply to 5. Can't find the article though (think it was a Halowaypoint update...)

 

[ToyMachine228]

I hope 343 adds a new map for Breakout every now in then during the monthly updates. Best part about Halo 5 in my opinion.

Ive had the mc armor avail since i beat the game and jumped into mp.

Both scarred and one thats not scarred. Idk what u ppl r talking about.

Totally agree, I only play Breakout and Arena.

I hate Arena Breakout though

 

[SmartWaffles]

I'm wondering what breakout variant they are going to shovel down our throat next time.

Yes not matter whatever variant, breakout should not be in the main playlist.

 

[gAg CruSh3r]

Why is that? Can someone explain?

Open your eyes and look at the armor from campaign.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Agreed. 100% Breakout and small Arena map gametypes feel so damn good. Everything else is a snooze fest.

 

[Fuchsdh]

I go through my armor so much; I change it every time I play. I just can’t find what I’m looking for. Every time I try to mix helms and armor it just looks funny. Either the helm is too small or it just looks out of place, so I end up just using the matching helm/armor set. I decided just to do something basic and simple, recruit, but the Charred version because the skulls and flame are neat. It reminds me of Emile, which would be a pretty cool set. I mean we have Noble, so why can’t we have this!







That's actually looking really good so far.

The skull and red colors also make the armor really reminiscent of Dutch from ODST.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Open your eyes and look at the armor from campaign.

dont make jokes about my eyes because im Asian, how rude.

This is what i have:

WAIT i stand corrected. I unlocked this by playing the MCC. heh... Ice always correcting me, geez

HOW TO UNLOCK: Earn the “Cairo Stations” Achievement in MCC (Unlocks Helmet & Armor)

Halo 5 campaign:

Well i now stand with the people who want the campaign armor avail from the get-go. LET US HAVE ITT!!! .. reviewing the unlockables.. the armor is nowhere to be found. Wow...

 

[Rand0m TAG]

whoever makes those short halo clips needs a promotion lol
those are great

Definitely.

That sense of humor needs to extend out to the social playlist whenever it comes.

Yeah the real campaign armor is not included, there is even another Mark 6 under the Ultra Rares... it is again not the campaign armor

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Ah man, this totally was something i expected to be in the game. Just beacuse the other armors were included you know? haha, wow im a bit shocked right now!

Was this discussed when the game first came out?

 

[Fotos]

They should make it the reward for hitting max level. Reach had that cool haunted armor and Halo 4 had nothing for hitting max.

I want some REQ Packs item so bad that I actually started playing warzone, I'm looking for some nice stances, The Halo Wars armor and the Classic RL, I'm hopping for the RNG to be kind with me.

 

[Leyasu]

I'm rocking the deadeye helmet and a new armor that I unlocked yesterday but can't remember the name of.. Lol

Deadeye helmet is the best in the game imo

If you're hopping for the RNG's kindness, then you'll be disappointed. It only accepts blood sacrifices :3

 

[Feel the Swift]

Hopefully when they show off the new maps they split the pro team between red and blue so it's actually a decent match.

 

[SmartWaffles]

I started to hate Battle of Noctus the more I play it. Too many BR/DMR spam and the focus on the monument is just boring.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

NAH MAN - This one is ...

I like the white accents that always show regardless if im on blue or red team.
