Man Halo 5 is now only 2 GB behind MCC in total size.

I expect it will surpass it in the next couple months.

Those two games take up so much of my hard drive. Had to remove Destiny which was neglected.

Okay now hold on a minute here - I agree with you that the achievement example you listed is a bad achievement.

But the current multiplayer achievements in Halo 5 were pretty damn great, no? They all just consisted of playing X amount of matches in a certain game type. They encouraged participation. That's the best kind of multiplayer achievement - ones that promote participating rather than screwing over your teammates in the hopes of fortuitously running into rare circumstances for some random miscellaneous multiplayer achievement.

Would have been better if there was a CTF and Stronghold playlist though. There's achievements for it, but you have to hope they come up in Arena.

but yeah it works a lot better that way. Gets people to try out a new mode they might not have otherwise played and they might actually like it.

Ahahahaha, the day comes, and the frowns appear!

The Halo universe is on its head!

Does the dynamic resolution bother anyone playing on a large TV? I may just rent it to see, as I'm mostly interested in the single player campaign.

Wait... So it's not ranked? I mean JiP with ranks is weeeeiiiird

I'm all for JiP in BTB tho

--

My update still at 8% tho so not like I'm playing anytime soon. No idea what's up with XBL right now. Usually I get great download speeds since I have a fast internet connection.

 

[ilikesanta]

I'm ilikesanta if people want to add me to the list.

 

[barneystuta83]

My instant-on Xbox better be doing some serious background downloading.

It's still ranked despite JIP.

 

[Eric WK]

I'm down for some BTB once this is done. At 85% now.

Tag is AnX IReCoiLz.

Invited you to party. Shoreu and I are trying to get a full group going.

 

[SicSemperTyrannis]

Would love to get into a spartan company myself if there's room.

GT: Angra Mainya

Check mine out

A Spartan Company link

 

[link1201]

I'm interested to see if the aiming fix helps.

 

[Loomba]

It's still ranked despite JIP.

Are they just not able to create unranked playlists? because that's how it's coming across to me.

Do you work?! lol... I'll be on after work fuckers!

NICE!!! Both good news for BTB. Although it shouldn't be ranked

I could do without aim acceleration but that's something I can live with. The slow turn bug was driving me nuts tho so glad it's supposedly fixed

Man that sounds good. This will bring back some of my friends too. Nice one 343

 

[Strider]

Is there some kinda Xbox one bug that makes it download the entire game again? This update speed is making no sense...

I'm glad its ranked. I've really enjoyed the ranks overall.

Nokyard's Standoff bases are fucking brilliant.

HYPE for BTB! Can't wait to get home.

Yeah it would be great to see more MP achievements added as game modes are added to encourage participation, e.g. "Win X BTB games." or something like that. Simple but would give people who moved on a reason to return to the game to see the new stuff, since they left so much content out of the vanilla release they need to encourage that kind of behaviour IMO.

This also makes me happy.

 

[Broadbandito]

social playlists will be ranked without showing your stats most likely.

also, BTB gametypes: Slayer, Strongholds, CTF?

 

[Samurai G0SU]

My instant-on Xbox better be doing some serious background downloading.

I'm in the same boat. Better be downloading or else...

Spoiler

(i'll text my wife and tell her to open halo 5 with a pretty please smile attached)

The servers are likely getting hammered.

 

[Unstable]

We starting a BTB train up in here?

I'd like one ticket please.

GT is Unstable H2o

 

[BraXzy]

XBOX PLEASE SPEED UP TY

 

[Bsigg12]

I'll be on later tonight. Waiting to read your guys' impressions of the maps.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Where do you people even live? I gotta go to class and ya'll nukkas trying to squad up

It's not fair

They're just fucking jobless hippies, man. Don't let them get to you.

Who does that?

Hit me up when you're done, bruh

 

[darthbob]

Still haven't received the Teishen REQ Pack.

Actually kinda mad about this.

 

[Slightly Live]

Strongholds BTB is a mess - teams spawn all over the map on any side. Pretty terrible. You can be shooting dudes in front one second, then get shot in the back the next.

are your teammates all over the map screwing up spawns? If not, then I'm sure they will update spawns in a week or so after they gather data

Ranked and jip? Lol

Makes sense though but hopefully there are some pistols lying around the maps.
