What's your win/loss? It's the perfect statistic to see if your strategy is paying off!

If you look at the bottom left of your screen you'll notice a radar. Follow the red dots for enemy location. Use the trigger button and unload on your enemy!

I crouch in the corner with my AR.
Well yea I mean... I do that too. That was a given tho
I'm the same way, I'm the guy that'll take on 3 people in a stronghold if it means I can contest long enough for my team to come get the reset.
I'm also more valuable dead than alive, so there's that lol
I think that stat will be skewed to folks who play with TO4's though. Not only that but bad players might find themselves with a 50% win rate because they are usually playing other bad players.
Something is up with the servers, people are having issues hosting on Halo 5 Forge right now too

Played a few matches today. Gonna take a while to get my Halo thumbs back.
Strongholds is very much monkey see monkey do after watching people play.Most games all four players will load into one strong hold. Other games some will aimlessly run into a stronghold that is the closest and die quickly.
I had a game the other day where we had a massive lead and the team lost because they fell into patterns. With a healthy enough lead all you really need to do is hang back and maintain two points, killing the enemy as they rush.
People get into to poor reactionary tendencies. Most are as simple as "OHHH, medal!" from locking down one base.

Jesus Christ, HCS/ESL. It's just a bit unprofessional when your viewers miss matches because you haven't directed players to wait for the casters to catch up.

Optic playing at there best where they can pull shit off to put people on tilt. Hopefully they can continue to play like they have been in the past couple seasons. Shame LG lost after that destruction of a ctf game. Thought it would be enough to give them the momentum to win.

That's two games I've had to quit today because of a self-sabotager on our team... like a dude just killing us [his own team] relentlessly, then someone quits, he keeps it up, so I just fucking quit too.
This seems to happen semi-regularly now that I'm in Onyx tier... it's fucking weird.

Ninja somehow making that game one score appear close. Wtf were lunch and victory doing half the time though? Pretty rough.
Edit: And then lunchbox unaware and ninja getting rekt in game 2. Hard to watch.

Not to take away from LOL though. They're playing really well this week finally.

Damn LoL good shit. Two wins in a row and a fucking 3-0 against EG.
Hopefully they can find someone to back them up now that they are playing so good. Sure it was just one week but it seems to be paying off quite well.

Should I get gears or cod4? I'm trash at gears but it seems like it'll be a solid game.

Hmm, hard to say, they are completely different for the most part. Judgment was trash, so thats why Im being so skeptical about GoW 4 and Im waiting for reviews. On the other hand you are getting both IW and CoD 4, so its pretty much two games; this is a pretty good deal.
A technicality of the delay in the spectate feature.
They do have the option of bookmarking matches so that they can view the replays in theater. I'm not sure why they don't do this whenever a match is missed...
YourExWife

I understand why it happened. Which is why it's amazing that it happened at all. In any case, I already tweeted at Tashi and he assured me it won't happen again. Measures in place for later broadcasts and whatnot.
Good point with the bookmarks too. Perhaps that's the change that Tashi and co are making.
I figured you already knew, I just wanted to bring up the bookmark subject.
I'm actually surprised that they hadn't been prepared for this... This isn't the first time they missed a game. Team Beyond and Ryanoob have been using this feature for a while to create content.
Good to hear that they've found a solution to the problem. I think I'm gonna check out the missing liquid/LG map when I get off of work.

I love when he reacts to a play and everyone spams the chat "mmmmmmmm"
Why not both? Have at least a month of solid playtime with gears.

Dat feeling when Halo 5 is 90GB
I doubt it, all other playlists are fine and after backing out a dozen times it magically finds a match, while I could leave it searching for 10 plus minutes.
