Bro. Bro. That would be insanely radical.

I dug the Arbiter's new armor. For all we know it's traditional Elite armor. Maybe they're trying to reestablish parts of their culture now that they're no longer with the Covenant?
Or I'm reading too much into it.

Does anyone have the two leaked vids uploaded? I just got off of work and can't find any on YouTube. Much appreciated.
Well shit, that was awesome. So pumped for the return of competitive Halo. I had totally forgotten about those MLG Foundry maps. Spent so much time playing those... damn.

I'm hoping Sunset Overdrive can last me until next thursday, but I'm starting to have my doubts. :lol

Nearly. This was all dependant on the patch, but its not here yet. Multiplayer can be streamed when they say it can, basically. I think they want us to wait for everything to go live first though.
I will be doing a Forge stream AFTER the first 2 hour multiplayer stream at 2000hrs GMT if the patch is out for me to do so.
I will pop in here and let people know when shit is about to go live. Me waiting for the patch:

Nah, you're probably right. Visually it's closer to the Arbiter armor than most elite suits, more organic.
I didn't do any of the side missions so I probably finished sooner than most. The game is very hard to put down though. My GOTY easily.

Yeah, I'm having a lot of fun. My current plan is to head into each district, get enough stuff to buy the maps, get all the sidequests done and then progress. I'm just gonna get so distracted by you guys all playing MCC a couple of days ahead of me. :'(
The music and that last oddball..mah days!

That Oddball match is such a classic moment. So good.
I fully expect this match to be about an hour (depending on how balanced teams are). That's why it's only one game. I plan to do more epic matches like this if things go well the first time around. I will do a different map and gametype every week (looking for requests).
If you would like to play in the match send me a PM with your GT and relative skill level (1-10 Scale) so I can add you to the list.
This should be a lot of fun and look forward to throwing down with everyone!
I'll keep this list updated as we go but so far here are the current signups.

- Halo 2: Anniversary: Gravemind and Prophet of Regret
- Halo 3: Sierra 117 and Floodgate

Anyone have an idea what's the music starting at around 55:00 in Remaking the Legend?
Regret is a good level to showcase next. Definitely looking forward to seeing the boss fight lol

Just watched the leak did anyone else notice
that there are 3 other spartans with Locke? One with a red visor and lights, one with pink and one with green.
Also since this scene is post Halo 4 I hope it means this is what Elites will look like in 5.

Looks like MS is being super aggressive in taking those vids down, don't blame them, but I don't remember seeing responses that quick to so many videos. I'm sure it exists on Vimeo or Dailymotion by now, though.
Seeing as they removed a ton of them, though, I'll probably just wait it out.

Yeah, I noticed that. Makes sense that
Locke would have a team.
And ditto on the
Elites thing. I've heard that the bookends are using Halo 5 assets, though I have no idea where, so we may be in luck .

So I posted a couple days ago about H2V feeling weird, but I just went to h2pc.org/update and got that and oh my god it feels great, much more responsive now and feels just like back in the day. I'm relived to find out it wasn't the fps or Xbox One controller that was making me suck so bad. That update made the framerate a lot better (it was stuttery before for me for some reason) and the H2Classic FoV mode, which please tell me will be in H2A because it's a lot better than the PC FoV. That may have been the biggest thing that made me feel back and home after I downloaded that update. Since Halo 2 Xbone is a port of Vista I'm worried it's the same FoV, which is oddly lower than on the Xbox.
Nice, not gonna be getting the MCC myself, but looking forward to poopsocking some weekends away watching MLG Tournaments again.
Get to watch Scrims on Twitch now that more players are streaming as well. I'll be a happy spectator.
downloaded that update a while back and for some reason my game doesn't have sound anymore. whhat

When are they releasing the content update for MCC? I thought I read somewhere that it was today.

Wait what? What are you talking about? I'm out of the loop.
I can't get it to work. I try to launch H2V, it asks me to login or something and I hit register then it wants to launch H2V and then the game crashes.
It's on his Twitch as well: http://www.twitch.tv/pg_aykkon/b/585260734

Halo 2 Outskirts + Extra Menus + Ascension Custom Game Walkthrough + Heretic Cinematic -Lock/Arbiter (where all the other videos got their clip from) + The Armour Mission + Heretic Cinematic + Cairo Station
All one video.
Apparently Halo 3 and 4 are missing from the Custom MP games atm. I imagine they'd be in dat 20GB patch.

I've been watching some pro CS:GO tournament streams recently and it stood out to me how much easier it is to follow matches than it ever was in Halo. So here's some thing I pretty much ripped straight out of CS:GO's spectator mode that I'd like to see incorporated into Halo Channel:
1. Outline for enemy and friendly players so you can see them when they're behind objects
2. Top-down view of either part of or the entire the map in the bottom left. (radar isn't used in competitive anyway)
3. Gamertag at the bottom middle.
4. No scoring in-game as it's already displayed in the overlay.
5. No timer in-game and move it to the overlay. (add round count if needed)
6. No event feed as it's already displayed in the overlay.
7. Colorize the names and teams in the event feed.
8. Replace "was killed by" in the event feed with weapons that were used. (not shown in the picture)
Hell, if you really wanted to you could probably put the overview of the map at the top left and move or not display the map name and gametype. Maybe put the name of the player we're currently watching below the timer or something too. That would really clear up some space on the screen in-game.

I was about to come on here and start defending complex, but then i realized i was thinking of construct from halo 3 lol. I had to look up complex to remember which map people were hating on; I support this hate.
That Cairo Station cut scene. Yesssssss
I prefer Complex to Construct any day of the week, myself.

What would you rate your skill level from 1-10? It's for team balance.

Sleep deprivation is manifesting itself in Freudian ways I guess.
XB1 arrived! The white console is a beauty. Now I get to watch it install a patch! And then, see if Kinect will scan my code! And then... watch it download a game!
Having a CSGO style spectator would be amazing. I also love their replay game system. You can go back and watch games of pros with full free roam with the same highlights. It even has a laser beam showing you were the players are aiming. It's really just the best system in any shooter by far.
