Wow that's messed up. My spartan company just got the Achilles armor a few hours. Way to go Filthy Animals!

don't worry guys. the achilles armor/helm is going to be abailable in another "skin" come June. They did it with the helioskrill for all of those legendary solo MCC players.
This is just a carrot on the stick for people to play the game more. Its working.

Definitely nice. Even better is that it's coming to 360 as well and they've merged a lot of the activity stuff. Making the last-gem platform feel like it belongs, and GwG will be available on XB1 to "buy" finally.
I don't Really care about what store a game is sold in. I just want the game to take full advantage of my PCs capabilities...
UWA's are currently limited compared to .exe's. If they fix that, I'd be all over any game that comes to the Win10 store. I don't see how people complain about being "locked in" to a store, but then are only opens to using one store anyway...

It's actually kind of fun for me, I can play badly and like an idiot and still do well.
What's this 149MB update about?
Definitely needs to be viewable in-game. I wouldn't even mind quick access to some kind of Halo Channel integration For Spartan Companies, so long as it wasn't cumbersome.

147 silver packs remaining for me.
I've still got a looooooong way to go...
27 commons left. 65 uncommons left. 203 rares left.
who are the admins of that company? Saucey and Cyren?, because that totally sounds like a thing these 2 would do

So I went to grab the sniper on Eden and this happened
Like wtf why would you go that way! Needless to say I was laughing, but he didnt take it too kindly.

It sounds like it was Moa (had beef with the kicked user(s)) or Infinity (decided to do a late purge of inactives right before they got Achilles, but denies booting the actually active user in question).
They claim it was unintentional, but the active guy who got booted brought it to Moa's attention over an hour before Achilles was reached and was told he'd look into it, and nothing was apparently done about it. So even IF it was a mistake, it was handled poorly...
Cyren seems like a decent dude to me, idk. I don't think he'd have time to micromanage the SC anyway.

The only way to get it is to be part of a Spartan Company who's commendations are about to be completed to unlock them.
Your contributions matter Spartan.

A good amount of those rare emblems are only unlockable via commendations, so it's probably a bit lower.

I'd like that in generic wz but I'm not sure I'd like it in assault.

I think they can't handle 16v16 with rock solid 60fps. Nop.

Im just looking at all the stuff that is happening to spartan companies. Players being booted for not being active enough. Players leaving their original companies to join larger companies. Small spartan companies between friends dying because it's the only way they have a chance at getting special armor. I don't mind having stuff that makes being in a spartan company more meaningful but an armor with the requirements for Achilles is not the way imo.
I mean it's a set of armor for hardcore players to chase. If those people don't want booted, they'd play more often. They more than likely don't care, and that's fine too!
It's perfectly fine for games to have stuff that not everyone can obtain.

I kind of wish there was a way to start out at bronze 1. Getting into gold would be easy enough and a lot of fun in the process.
This is true, but at the same time the impact it's having on smaller spartan companies is kind of sad. Probably not what 343 intended.

So I haven't played in a while, was going through the settings and noticed the look acceleration. but mostly the dead zone settings. Are there optimal choices for these settings? I can't tell a huge difference when changing them.
Also, I forgot how hard it is to aim on Halo 5 compared to the others. I find myself overcompensating a lot and completely missing.

I wish it was set up kind of like GTAO's crews, i.e. where you can be a member of multiple Spartan Companies at once but only "rep" one at a time.
Like, make your stats appear for all of your Companies' Service Records, but you can only pick 1 Company to direct your commendation participation towards.

Diamond 2 is an actual placement for me. Welcome to the bad at the game club, enjoy your stay.
What is it doing to them? SCs were worthless before the addition of Achilles, lol.
I am IN on playing some Stelly comp.
Add inner deadzone if you stick is broken and drifts, otherwise there's no need imo. Outer deadzone if you want to hit turn accelaration quicker.

yea man. I just played a game where two of my teammates had a combined 130 damage. ofc zero kills. super fun losing like that.

Well there is nothing you can do about your teammates (unless you play in a group). So there's really no point in worrying about it.

We've probably all graduated to Warzone tbh
i'm not worried about it. it's just not fun playing with people like that.
Full time Warzone and Social warriors.
We lose so many Arena games but we still eventually end up around 1650 Onyx by the time the season ends.

I have no idea how to do this, do you have to do it through some website or something ?

How much force were you applying to the controller to get that dude to fly like that LOL

Here is a website that details on how they work -

I think they have a neat video too. You can sign in the website with your Microsoft Account, so no need to worry about creating an account, kinda.

A little off-topic with some reeling in. Phil Spencer on upgrading hardware with backward/forward compat.
How would you guys feel if Halo always released on a new xbox console with a 3-4 year cycle? the main headliner to move to the next xbox?
Since we have REQ in place to always have support post launch, i dont think there would be much splitting in the community, if communication is handled right of course.
What do you guys think?
