They obviously they need a huge update to gain some more momentum. These updates are nice but when its put into perspective, all the shine and gliter glam is removed. Some could argue the playlist updates shouldn't be a main tagline as the update when it should have been there day 1, like previous halo games. . . .
Like we have a house of 15 doors. We bought it and found out only 2 doors unlocked. Every month we get a key to unlock 1 door. Whatever is in that room is now available back to us to use.
Anyway, i want halo 5 to still grow and sustaion well into the end of 2017 until 6 comes for the transition. Which ill buy too.

Thanks for the free maps
I'm just glad the Xbox doesn't have a spent counter like Steam does, I checked my Dota 2 spending recently and... it was beyond insane. I'd hate to know the actual figure I've spent on H5 xD

I bought the Limited Edition, Digital standard, Arena REQ bundle and the $30 gold pack bundle more than a few times. I paid for lots of map packs. 
Wait what? Frankie told me I had to buy the packs. D:

My guess for wild hog -
Majority of reqs for new vehicle varients/skins.
1 wz map
Assault version of darkstar (lmao)
..... That's all i got.

Hog Wild must contain Race, the all new gametype.
These updates have all been mildly the same content wise. So why some of you hype yourselves up for something way more each month is confusing.
You know you're going to get 1-2 maps, skins, armor, emblems, and weapon variants. How could you be so dissapointed with this update? It has everything the past ones have, lol. They haven't even uncovered 2 of the main REQs, at least wait for that, sheesh.

It's more so that they are going to fail to hit the 15+ maps by June as previously stated. I wasn't that disappointed in Memories of Reach, A Warzone Spire map would have been cool though.
I think it's pretty apparent those BTB maps were being counted in that number. The complete silence on the matter speaks volumes.

Unacceptable to count forged maps towards that number, as it goes against expectations.

Well they did count them at launch; They counted orion, pegasus and the breakout maps right?
Lol wonder if they counted the forge btb maps as part of the count....
Edit:
I counted 13 mentioned maps. Whether they are dev, assault or btb forge.
So were getting 1 with memories. All they have to do is have 2-3 for hog wild to avoid legal shit i guess.

But the BTB maps were designed by cartographers. It's different.

Im just going by the amount of maps mentioned in their content updates. Not a standard of how maps differentiate. They all have said they go in these btb maps to fix art/spawning/whatever else adjustments to make sure it works lol.
The people have standards and so does their legal team.
lets be real.
I don't even mind that they count forge maps. the problem is that they are garbage, look terrible, and lazy. orion and pegasus should have never even been thought up of. and then you see some of the maps forgers are making that look decent and shit on those two, you gotta wonder why a huge company is looking dumb by some dude in his mom's basement.

Where are you guys seeing pictures of Stasis?
I'm not arguing that they're acceptable. BTB would be on the cutting room floor completely in my perfect world. ;p
^ They're seeing a thumbnail and the preview footage and coming to the conclusion it sucks.

Exactly. We had 4k now we have <480p.

We are not saying it sucks. We are saying it's stupid to have a remake on such a recent map.
I'm tempted to start an avatar bet that the map sucks.

I think the remix was in the same development pipeline. Hense the quick turn around time. Thats my guesss

This. They need to bury that disappointment next to the the ET cartridges in the desert. Hopefully they won't do a .5, and will release something substantial in 2017. 4 year gen like the OG

It almost crushes me. (almost because they have removed the region lock ). Halo 5 BTB is on another level and was the ultimate reason as to why I stuck with that underpowered fucking piece of shit xbone. That plus halo on dedicated servers.
Yet BTB is like the smelly cousin that everyone is embarrassed about and what no one wants anything to do with .
Sorry, my last two posts read like the bitter jilted ex wrote them.. Lol
Remind me, did they ever show screenshots/gameplay snippets? Or just the art? Maybe it got axed

Rig remix and assault darkstar in hog wild - bet.

I mean a snowy map is pretty cool I guess, hope it's better than Torque. I'm surprised they didn't remake a Reach map (
but make one of them actually good

Would it even be possible to modify a reach map into something halfway decent?

I'd like to see a Countdown re-work, not a 1-1 scale remake, but tweaked for Halo 5's sandbox. Reach's other 4v4 maps don't even reach "decent" in their quality, Anchor 9 and Condemned are okay, but not worth remaking.
I'd much rather see Haven, Skyline or Monolith from Halo 4 than anything in Reach.

That actually looks awesome, would have preferred that over a new Torque. Reminds me of Doom.Remind me, did they ever show screenshots/gameplay snippets? Or just the art? Maybe it got axed

how is the game population wise? i forget about this game but might just pick it up now if it isnt dead

I thought they showed a WIP in one of the sprints, maybe I'm wrong...
That artwork is actually much more visually interesting than Rig
Your experience will depend on where you live. Population is fine here in the US

Lol even countdown should be condemned to an eternity of exclusion. Those three halo 4 maps that you mention I like also. I would love to see them comeback. I honestly liked most of halo 4s BTB maps as well, and would be over the fucking moon to have some of those back.

They don't show population numbers, but you find matches in seconds.
As Fata said, you get matches in seconds. In the age of multi platform games, I think Halo 5 is a pretty darn healthy exclusive, still going strong.

Yeah I get matches in like 5 seconds. (US)
