Please 343 reverse bungies shitty fov decisions (h1 was 90 and it went downhill from there, h3 was 70 or 75).

I agree that they should finally get around to boosting the FoV, but your numbers are wrong.

Halo 1 was 70 horizontal, in 4:3 mode. For CEA's 16:9 they horizontally expanded the view while holding vertical constant, which made it 86 degrees horizontal.

Halo 3 was 70 horizontal in 16:9 mode, although 55 in 4:3 mode.

Since Reach, all mainline releases have been 78 in 16:9 mode.

Please 343 make console aiming like pc with controller thanks.

Halo is real guys.

 

[SmartWaffles]

All the big FPS titles are starting to have FOV slider on consoles, it'll be crime if Halo 6 does not add it.

Well knowing their engine, a change in FOV may break the whole game

It doesn't seem to break anything in Halo 5. Nor does unlocking the framerate so far

Halo 3 has mediocre 4v4 maps besides Narrows, the Pit and Citadel. Snowbound, Isolation, Construct , Orbital and Epitah are all pretty bad. Halo 2 fares much better.

Narrows is a terrible map as the spawn system is easily manipulated in the map. The problem with Halo 5's maps are that they are too small for Halo 5's sprint and thruster abilities and in alot of aspects they either have too much cover or not enough cover.

 

[blue_phazon]

Does anyone else's heart rate increase while playing this game? Dunno if that's a bad thing or not

Please 343 make console aiming like pc with controller thanks.

Wait if you play on PC using a controller, it feels different? Is there less magnetism or something? It's way too generous on console.

 

[BizzyBum]

Damn, is it really that much better?

*beats onxy level guys in my last three placement matches but gets placed in platinum 6*

are you kidding me lol

happens to me a lot if a game is real close though it's not exclusive to just halo but also fighting games.

 

[SmartWaffles]

I suspect the difference in controls between PC and Xbox is due to some input lag issues on Xbox.

 

[orichalcos]

Dafuq?

 

[jizzlobber]

That's what I'm thinking, I'm using the same controller for both Xbox and PC halo 5 and it does feel better on PC... Wired on PC however as opposed to wireless on xb1.

That would explain a tiny amount of latency.

Nice!
That would've felt good

I have a bit of a funny clip
Thought I came up with a sick play, boost slide to steal the flag as the opponent was about to score, then I perfect shot him.
Watched the clip back, you can see both flags are away with their guy hiding, someone on my team kills him with hydra then you hear him being assassinated himself, flag is picked up again but the idiot doesn't realise his flag is back and he hides with the flag... Finally he tries to score but a rocket stops him short, a team mate tried to pick up the flag to finish the cap only to pick up a DMR instead.
That's when I arrive to make my play, it's worth a watch!

I played on wired for both, but on PC it is indeed a little bit more responsive, it is pretty apparent when doing skill jumps.

 

[The British Hick]

Anyone have the names of any discord/custom groups that are popular on PC?

 

[Akai__]

The Custom Game Browser better show stuff like: Map, Gametype, Starting Weapons and other settings.

Because if it doesn't you will be stuck playing Shotty/Swords on the empty Breakout Arena, like I am currently. -.-

It's not nice to talk about Akai like that.

Did I do something to piss you off? Because I'm certainly not the type of guy who crouches his way into a victory. We played some very weird FFA maps, so I played a little defensive. Especially on that one map that only consisted of hallways and one color.

Spoiler

Maybe it was my comment about you crouching immediately after engaging in a 1vs1? If so, I didn't mean that as an insult, so I'm sorry if it came across as one.

The HaloGAF Discord group is here: https://t.co/9DmSp5BQ93

It got shared on several sites/videos so we have over 1500 members now. Very easy to find players.

No problem. Have fun.

If you actually made me mad we would've played Torque customs.

Titanfall is getting a card game. Inb4 Halo: Cards Evolved.

Actucally a Halo card game could work. There is enough lore and EU to make it interesting.

Yeah that could work tbh. Id play it, in fact I'm kind of surprised there isn't one already (physical or digital)

My kids actually wanted me to print a deck of req cards, so we could do Halo snap

 

[Papasmurf531]

Haha yeah! But I did really bad. I missed so many shots

I started to decline rapidly several games later... Got put in Diamond though, so I'm not too mad!

A warhammer style game works better for Halo. Or something like Heroclix (I remember when they did Heroclix for Halo 3 lol)

But yeah Halo could easily fit into the baordgame universe.

Ideally I would LOVE something like Betrayal. A co-op boardgame where you build randomly generated levels and go through scenarios leading up to a big Event where you have to complete a mission that is randomly selected depending on how you explored the map. That or Zombicide but instead just replace the zombies with Covenant

NICE! I always get put into Plat 4, and then i have to work my way up to diamond lol.

So you'll be an Onyx in no time!!

Well, funny story, that's already a thing.

Atleast you got into Onyx. Until next month where they place you Plat 6 after your first 10 matches lol.

Fully torqued right now

But I still think a Halo spin on both Betrayal and Zombicide would be God tier too

 

[Forerunner]

I haven't placed Plat in a long time, I gerenally start in Diamond. I won two placement matches before and still got Diamond. lol

When I get a chance ill try and through some up. I'll look for some links too. There are some good YouTube vids of it.

You must have a list of all the games' vert & hor FOV somewhere (I've been trying to find it from years past) + split-screen.

Was H2A FOV changed?

Would be nice if hypothetical H3A boosted the FOV. Also... split-screen on 16:9 window instead of the black bars pls. :[

 

[Samurai G0SU]

aaah, i thought i seen a post where they placed you in plat for some reason. my apologies!

And you would see me rage-quit left and right then. lol

If you want to easily change the FoV/FPS someone made a nice .exe for that

Don't mean to double post, but apparently you can go above to 16 player cap in customs by simply inviting people after the game starts. Someone said they just started an 18 player BTB game and had another say they had a 21 player infection game last night.

 

[Karl2177]

It'd be nice if there was theater in the Win10 Forge.

 

[NOKYARD]

What I would love to see return if we get a Brute Firefight expansion


Brute Shot

Chopper

My Avalanche remake craves Brute variants.

I would even say they should reach out to the Community Cartographers again and have them do updates for all of the BTB maps using the new textures and assets etc. Really shows how limited launch forge was.

Funny you should post this on the very day the CCs sent the BTB candidates upstream to 343i.

Don't patch it, 343i! New BTB™

Spoiler

With AR/Pistol starts

 

[Strakt]

I really hope they patch in the uncapped FPS very soon. Its really unplayable for me , even on a 980 TI esp on a 1440p / 144hz monitor. I know theres a cheat engine floating around, but I would rather not use that.
