Yeah sorry man. FWIW we did win the match. Kappa

Do you usually have issues that often?

I never have these issues. I think it was a server problem ( related to the game). Or maybe my connection was fucked up and I didn't know.

Id play but im in a parking lot at a safeway.

You lucked out this time sir dany.

What, you selling drugs? There has to be a better way to word it.

 

[GringoSuave89]

Ah thanks will do when I'm next to a computer, waypoint keeps crashing for me on mobile.

Yup, as said, just shoot off a request and I'll add you when there is an opening.

Ah shit, double post. Thought I hit edit.

Why don't teams just concentrate on keeping 2 bases in Strongholds? I know your score goes up by 2 points instead of 1 but seems like it would be easier to defend 2.

is that how the Company got the Achilles body?

I wish more would watch. Been a long time since I've seen great competitive Halo.

Hey Frank if you read this. Why is the old UNSC logo back in Halo Wars 2? Not that I am complaining. You guys shouldn't have changed it in first place but makes no sense that it switches between games like H2A which has old UNSC logo and then Halo 5 which has new and then back to old logo in Halo Wars 2, just like Chief armor change.

Alright thanks. So I'm finally able to play is anyone down to play or is it going to be lonely warzone assault session for me?

Yeah, it's kinda sad how the streams barely break 5K every time.

why change what isnt broken?

 

[Madness]

I think it is solely due to Xbox One. Dead console. I think the pivot to PC will pick it up again. Just too limited of audience for Halo 5. But I do like that 343 isn't shying away. Dedicated casters and consistent pro league etc. Tashi started the new podcast. Another world championship next year. But it is just hard with how few own an Xbox One let alone play it. Even Halo fans barely watching.

Share a similar sentiment.

Hey this is a bit off topic but if anyone has 2 spare PAX West passes could you PM me please!
I'm interested in purchasing some.
I want to take my girlfriend but I missed the sale

Thanks a lot

Considering my Xbone is a dedicated Halo 5 machine I don't disagree. More people would watch if more people played the game which is why I was hoping for a PC port.

drugs, gringo.

Is "gringo" supposed to be associated with drugs?
I'm confused too.

Same. Literally bought this console for MCC. Now just a Halo 5 box and twitch to watch Halo streams box.

It makes sense for HW2 to have the old logo since Spirit of Fire has just been floating for decades with all that old 2530s gear. The real problem is that the game inexplicably uses the 2557 Warthog. Like... what?

its obviously a subspecies of warthog. thats the reason for the design differences.
shite reason but a reason none the less

How rude! Maybe i was waiting in the car for my wife to return with some flowers!!!

The other teams have caught upto CLG and routinely challenge them now. CLG is dropping games to OpTic, NV they barely won, E6 is up right now 2-1 etc. Their aggressive playstyle is now being emulated.

 

[blue_phazon]

Unlike you nerds I don't play PC games, so I actually have a big backlog on Xbone.

Spoiler

But it's mostly because I'm usually just playing Halo lol

 

[link1201]

Very excited to think maybe we'll finally get some great forge maps especially remakes in mm.

Wanted to say something SO BAD when you posted this...

CLASSIC REMAKES - MAP SUBMISSION THREAD

GRIFBALL - MAP SUBMISSION THREAD

TEAM ARENA - MAP SUBMISSION THREAD

+ more

The golden state warri...I mean CLG has just lost.

[tootsi666]

I don't think PC port would help with viewing numbers that much assuming PC version doesn't blow up. If console Halo fans aren't watching, why would PC players?

Everyone loses eventually. Even CLG

 

[Welfare]

Uhhhhhh

So we have to play on Urban for WZ Firefight, and not Noctus? Please be a mistake.

 

[link1201]

Given that the Mech is tuned around Warzone Firefight, it has to stand up to combined fire from 8 players with power weapons and vehicles, giving a satisfying challenge and not dying early enough for it to be anticlimactic. This means that tackling it one-on-one is likely to end poorly – a future campaign-tuned variant would be a lot of fun though (maybe too much fun?).
One note: a Grunt is shorter but wider than a Spartan, they actually require around the same amount of space (not relevant right now, but at some point, maybe?).
#gruntthetruth

what does it all mean?? lol
forgeable?

 

[Valhalla Rapids]

what does it all mean?? lol
forgeable?

means that they obviously are planning it to be pilot-able, but wont outright say it, because they suck at communication

and campaign-tuned, could mean showing up in Halo 6 or whatever supplemental game they work on. DLC is more than likely out of the question.

Nice CU. It was a good read.

Yeah that sucks.... I don't know why they don't want to use the Monument anymore... It would have been a cool location for fighting the a.i bosses.

Oh dear god Optic Prison in Team Doubles what the fuck!

Yup. To quote NOKYARD:

Game Mode Details
Halo: CE Remakes
- Halo CE Pistol, AR Secondary
Halo 2 Remakes
- Halo 2 BR Starts, AR Secondary

Not sure about the games after H2. Maybe later, i hope.

I know where I'll be spending most of my time lol

It's literally the only WZA map in the bunch... gotta be an error, right?

 

[blue_phazon]

Nah.

We even saw WZFF screens from Urban

 

[sir_dany12]

It's not that big of a deal.

 

[Deputy Moonman]

Anyone else ever notice how if you use an rp boost the game actually grants you less req points than normal for the regular part of the game? Did a wz assault game and it went all 3 rounds. Defended the core. 1100 points. Fuck that. You get more than that for losing when the game goes for only 6 minutes.

 

[jfoul]

This update looks great. It'll be interesting to see if we get a commitment, or road map for content following Warzone Firefight.

 

[GringoSuave89]

GG tonight all. Hoping for a good Warzone Saturday tomorrow
