Gaming Side doesn't seem to get the Forge feature is largely for people who own the game on Xbox One. So they're acting entitled as a result.
FTFY.

But don't say that on gaming side or they'll diagnose you with a persecution complex.
Guy on my team just got a perfection and only did 801 total damage
I still don't have a perfection in H5
I only came close to getting a perfection once and that was months ago. It was that 50- -2 team slayer match on eden. I posted a picture of once in one of the halo 5 Guardian OT's.

These level 5 SC comms are taking too long.
Hey, someone just put the Buckle Up comm. (Forgot to Pay the Toll) into tier 5. I tip my hat to you good sir.
Only 1020 more to go...
Also, looks like Road Trip might be the last one, not First Strike. Get to it people. You know what to do.

Slowly, but surely I'm plowing through my reqs. Anybody have any experience with this? Is it good or just okay? I unlocked it last night, but have yet to try it out.
Also, who was complaining about warthog reqs the other day? I kid you not, I've unlocked 5, i repeat, FIVE, legendary warthog certs... Including the fact that I've unlocked all the ultra-rare warthog certs, I only have the woodland and oni rocket hog, and the tundra gauss hog left. Bleah. All the vehicle certs I'll have left after that are the rest of the Mantis and Phaeton certs. So. Close.
Seriously though, that's me lol.

How do you get Buckle Up and Road Trip? What other medals do we need?
Sounds like my kind of player!

The main reason it was so odd too is because we won 50-13 but everyone on the other team still managed more damage than him lol
No they're not. They know exactly what they are doing. A full retail release of Halo 5 could be announced and you'd get complaining of how it isnt cross play so it sucks, its only UWP Win10, no steam, bring the older games etc.
A lot of the posts are sheer disengenuous and always have been especially in Halo or MS threads.
It's nuts that this game is already on OT4. The multiplayer community must be quite robust.
Personally, I stopped after getting the original 1000/1000 but I still loved the game. I'm really only interested in single player in the Halo universe, and I really enjoyed the Halo 5 campaign.
I'm really excited to see what 343 does next. Currently they are doing the following:
1) Working on continued Halo 5 multiplayer support on XB1
2) Working on porting Forge from Halo 5 to PC
3) Consulting on Halo Wars 2, which is being developed by Sega / Creative Assembly
Does that leave them any breathing room / time to work on Halo 6, or dare I say it, some other IP? My brother and I were discussing how successful Killer Instinct is, being a Rare property handed to a different dev. I wonder if there is ever a scenario where Perfect Dark would be handed to 343. Or if 343 would ever work on an original IP.

Buckle up is snipe someone out of a vehicle. Road trip commendation is ground vehicle kills

We specifically need Splatters as well for another commendation.

I finally unlocked the Remembrance visor and was sadly disappointed that it doesn't look bright orange. Just looks red like a couple of the other red visors. My new unobtained and desired visor now is the gold daybreak visor.
Did the rest of your team have a lot of assists? It sounds like he was finishing off a lot of kills started by other players.
I went back to what I had before the update which is 3 sensitivity and 2 acceleration and I'm still doing poorly in most games. I need halp and suggestions to improve.

I think in one of the Sprint episodes they mentioned already brainstorming ideas for Halo 6 so I'm guessing it's in development. I sorta hope it's on next gen though.

I think Forge for Windows 10 is awesome. I haven't gotten into H5 Forge but that might do it.

I believe they do.
Of course. It was just an odd scenario that's all. 801 damage is super low for 17 kills lol

Happy about having more of a time frame for Firefight than just Summer. I've been craving the mode so bad these past few days, makes it a bit easier to cope lol.

Rofl! I'm not gonna lie, even though I really wasn't and still am not that excited about more warthogs being in the game, I want that sword needler warthog. What do you think the other 3 warthogs are? 2 green and one yellow. Maybe the green ones fire plasma shots lol. Or are we getting vehicle skins?
Yeah definitely.
Zoso Achilles

I will drive all the vehicles all the time in BTB.
Why not just give us Spectres instead with normal Plasma turrets, Needler turrets and maybe Fuel Rod turrets? I mean, the idea is pretty cool, but why does it have to be Warthogs again? It's not like we have 20 of them already. The 4 things on the top are all Warthogs, as you can clearly see the outlines. They also, once again, blurred out the already revealed content, wich is the yellow Warthog with the Tiger stripes this time.
Also, why do I have the feel that the UNSC is now working with the non-radical Covenant on these vehicles and even weapons to defeat Cortana in Halo 6?
Hmmh... Could be anything, but not gonna get my hopes up for the REQ's until I see what they are. I know Forge content won't disappoint, though.
That's because damage is super broken. We tested it in a FFA, after ExWife told me about it.
1st player: Only shooting somebody 1 shot.
2nd player: Farming the 1 shot guy.
3rd player: Doing a 5 shot kill.
The 3rd player actually had 0 damage in that game, while he actually should have had the most.

I dunno why they haven't added any new vehicles. It'd definitely be more fitting.

About that Sword Needler warthog, I was gonna go back and add to my post that it should have been a covenant vehicle. Spectre would work or even a new ghost variant. Ah well.
YourExWife
Member
the 3rd had zero? Even though the person who they shot was killed (by them)? If that's the case, damage is even more useless of a stat than I thought.
We only tested with two people. We shot someone until they had no shields, then didn't kill them. Zero damage dealt. Damage dealt only showed up once the kill was cleaned up.

That wouldn't be Hog Wild bro. Spectre wild doesn't have the same ring to it
Yeah, we were super confused actually and thought it was the Forge map that's acting up. Then we did the same on Plaza and had the same result. It was all with FFA settings and I don't know if that's any different from Slayer in terms of calculation. I'm gonna try to replicate that tomorrow with some screenshots and even teams, if I have time to get online and my friends are online.

So we will be getting new Reqs before the end of the month.
But only a few and nothing more.
I can live with that. It gives me more time to farm golds, since I'm not playing too much right now.

I don't think that's the case. Going back and looking at the game the total damage done by my team adds up to be about what you'd expect from a Team slayer game going to 50 kills considering it only counts damage from enemies that die.
You most likely encountered a bug with forge or FFA or something... Definitely weird tho. Or perhaps maybe the damage from perfect kills are bugged and don't get tracked properly? There was only 2 perfect kills in the game by my team so overall the damage done by each individual would'nt have changed much.
I definitely don't think the damage stat is "super broken" though.
Edit: oh wait. Actually... Is player health 200 total (100 for shield 100 for health) or 100 total (50 shield/50 health)? lol I should know this smh. Because now I looked at the other teams damage and despite getting 13 kills they managed way more damage in comparison to my team with 50 kills actually. I'm leaning toward that it is super broken now lol
Here's the damage from the game I was talking about fwiw: http://i.imgur.com/1Xfw0Vk.png
I was thinking we should have 5k damage as a team give or take since it only counts damage from killed enemies.. And as a team they should have 1.3k damage? man i dont even know lol I might be thinking about this all wrong.

That's true. Also, the update should have been called "Hogs Gone Wild!" in my opinion.
