Did bravo just stop himself from cussing lol? As soon as he got assassinated he was about to say that's real funny .... And caught himself.

Sounded like he almost said cocksucker, but idk

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Ugh barely started streaming. What did i miss??

 

[Deputy Moonman]

I dunno, watching people play grifball is kind of dull imo. Now they're gonna do a 2nd game. I wanna see the reqs.

 

[Karl2177]

I'm guessing we are also getting Avalanche in BTB now also.

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

Enemy has ya ball, told y'all.

Yeah, I just wanted to see the game end and now they're playing another one.

I'm guessing we are also getting Avalanche in BTB now also.

Hopefully. Sidewinder/Avalanche is the best lineage of BTB maps.

 

[Unfriendly TimeTraveler]

See that's what I thought. Made me crack up how he got once he got assassinated. Guess they gotta watch what they say on stream.

 

[blamite]

I took the dog out... brought him in... fed him..

and they're still playing Grifball.

Basically.

 

[GringoSuave89]

I'm guessing we are also getting Avalanche in BTB now also.

Hope so. I'd be thrilled.

 

[Chittagong]

Fuck. After hearing the accent I know why the matches today have been so off. I think they have broken the EU matchmaking again.. It's back to against US players on US servers.

 

[Fata1moose]

343, please stop putting giant UNSC logos on everything. It looks ridiculous.

 

[Pudge]

That Duck Hunt medal is pretty great.

 

[Caja 117]

Ok instant detonation.

 

[BraXzy]

When's the update dropping, today?

I'd guess that it's gonna be Friday, would make sense why they moved the stream forward.

 

[Fata1moose]

I hope Social CTF is replaced with Social Assault and they make it 4v4.

 

[NOKYARD]

I'm guessing we are also getting Avalanche in BTB now also.

No. It's just a facade. Sorry.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

I've noticed there's no thruster cooldown warning after you thrust twice while holding the ball. Is that a glitch or oversight? There's a Sword that allows for two thrusts and shows the cooldown after the second thrust, so it's strange to see it missing while holding the ball.

 

[Fata1moose]

No. It's just a facade. Sorry.

You're a mean person.

There a really good Sindewinder remake though, might see that in the community playlist. I'd like to see the author of Halvalla make an Avalanche re-make.

 

[IHaveIce]

Man watching grifball is more boring than playing... who would've thought.

 

[Fata1moose]

Assault has a very large arming zone in Halo 5. Before it as just the plate, right?

I noticed that too. Very odd. I also wonder if dropping ball and picking it up again instantly refills your thrusters. Couldn't tell if that happened to Joker cause, again, no icon.

343, please stop putting giant UNSC logos on everything. It looks ridiculous.

It's overkill but they love branding. Reminds me when Bungie went overboard in Crows Nest.

 

[JackHerer]

Torque looks much better than Overgrowth and Riptide so that's cool. Assault looks fun but yeah that zone looks pretty big.

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

I hope Social CTF is replaced with Social Assault and they make it 4v4.

Your wish has been granted (Not sure about 4v4, but it's probable)

 

[Glass]

Getting glimpses of the moving skybox on Torque, makes for a helluva back drop.

 

[Caja 117]

Yeah. But given sprint and high kill times they needed somethig to compesate, watching the game i think they need to lower the fuse time, we will see how it goes but I see games not ending, and thats has always been the problem with neutral assault.

 

[Fata1moose]

Haha, yeah that was fast.

I think the arming time is okay, just think the bomb is neutral so you should have your team defending you the entire time, whereas in CTF you're split up defending/attacking.

 

[WordsintheWater]

It seems nice from a gameplay standpoint. But damn, industrial again.

Yeah, looks like a great map, but seriously I don't understand why they rock this aesthetic almost every map. Makes shit so dull.

 

[belushy]

ASSAULT LOOKS SEXY

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Turns stream on and sees assault in action, faints. Have mercy.

 

[Magwik]

Do people like really care that much about Griffball?

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Kickstart? I missed that part

 

[GringoSuave89]

Do people like really care that much about Griffball?

There's a very dedicated following. And it's a fun, mindless gamemode. Also great for getting Hammer/Sword commendations.

 

[NOKYARD]

Do people like really care that much about Griffball?

When Halo 4 launched we had over 600 teams sign up.

 

[Caja 117]

Haha, yeah that was fast.

I understand, but with assault you have respawning closer to were the bomb is armed, making it extra difficult for the defending team to protect, but we will see, assault in halo reach mlg had a lot of games that ended because of time limit.

 

[GringoSuave89]

Kickstart? I missed that part

They do Kickstarter to get to PAX, pay for booths, etc, and offer some pretty cool rewards.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

This trailer is hype!!


Fiesta and that assassination!!!!

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

[Welfare]

[Digital Limit]
