Took over 10 years, but we're finally here. Halo 2-3 babbies are running away from this franchise.

The endless complaints will not be missed for sure.

I am greatly enjoying where Halo has gone and is continuing to be taken. From what we've seen of Halo 5 so far... It looks like it's got the potential to be the best game in the franchise.

 

[MouldyK]

Lol, Gaming Side:

I played CE on PC back in the day, but I am looking into getting into Halo now - perhaps erring towards the more competetive elements of the game, so is Halo 5 a good point to dive in (as in, is it looking like its popular with the scene) - if not, what is a good jumping in point?

Halo hasn't been good since Halo 3, sadly. Reach and 4 were progressively worse installments.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Do you heat up the fruit before or... ?

Lol, Gaming Side:

Whats "lol" worthy?

 

[Granadier]

Probably like his personality... Vicious.

Ooo, now things are getting kinky.

Guys. 343 apologized. Its all good remember.

 

[shadow rckts]

Halo 5 is going to be fun to run around in, let's stick with that. In the meantime..smite beta codes:
Your Code: 2TK6D-KT249-RH4JM-2YWW2-FVWHZ
Code for a friend: CDFKF-76QXQ-6MGCK-TKMKX-K6TRZ

The fact that the first reply was negativity towards anything after Halo 3, which seems to be the usual response.

Was very predictable, which i found amusing.

A bit of both. Sometimes I wonder if the decline in Halo's popularity is it's fans telling everyone it's terrible.

 

[Nowise10]

Couldn't 343 just like look at game history for their tests, and find the game where the Red team won with 50 -13, and then pinpoint the guy who took the screenshots of all those weapons and crap.

Don't worry. Frankie has been fired for leaking this info.

 

[RdN]

It almost verbatim the beta code. So I would basically ignore everything you're looking at.

Good to know.

I was worried for a moment.. Those graphics look really bad for a game coming out in four months.

This may the best gif response in the history of gif responses.

Media and Info dump, a leak, and this close to E3?

Somebody crossed the streams.

Spoiler: the first Big Team Beta map revealed is going to take place in a giant barn.

 

[User 73706]

Honestly, I had really liked the Beta's kill feed setup where just about every single weapon either had a unique killfeed message or a unique string for a perfect kill: X 4-shotted Y, X eviscerated Y, etc. Seemed like a fun spin on the usual TF2-esque "BLUE WEAPONED RED" setup.

This remote site on Harvest is notorious for its use in several insurrectionist propaganda films leaked over the slush. 24-32 players.

And Greenskull says he has impressions (and maybe video) from campaign that he's posting on the 12th, which is when I assume the NDA for the event the leaks came from expires.

Anyone going to SDCC and want to get me these Halo guns? lol

Hopefully they'll have extras available after the con.

This thing HAS to be a harness for the grunt over there to piggy back ride.

...or for ziplining into battle.

Same, one of my friends used to be big on the whole modded nerf scene and really wants to check these out and make them crazy lol

(he isnt touching mine if I get them though)

 

[Prinz Eugn]

I hope you can buy that magnum later separately. Some silver spray paint and a little weathering, and I'll be as cosplayed as I ever want to be.

I hope we get something that goofy in H5G as an enemy type. Even it its darkest / most serious, Bungie still took some time to throw in some hilarious quirks for the enemies, like Grunts flying around after being shot in the methane tank in Reach.

BoomCo guns are pretty well made, and the darts are far better than nerf for the sole reason that they have that special ahesive that only works on their targets

 

[Madness]

Are we allowed to post leaked screens and discuss them here

Of course. We're not under NDA, it's not GAF's responsibility to manage MS/343 leaks. I mean I feel for Josh, Frankie, D'Ellis and the rest of the team who then have to put out fires or explain things leaked without context, but as a fan, bring on the leaks. Anything we can get please. Do you have something newer than the 4chan/Beyond leaks?

 

[GringoSuave89]

Oh yeah, all the BoomCo guns will have a retail release. This bundle is just special cause it's both pistols and a collectors case.

So far, it's confirmed there will be a needler, smg, magnum, TWO types of plasma pistol (regular, which is in the two pack, and overcharge), and carbine.

 

[User 73706]

That magnum is literally an Opus. Next thing you know we'll get a stripped-out AR with a mounted rail for a sling and silver / candy red trimmings.

At this rate you won't have anyone to play against/with so I'd be more careful with my wishes.

Unless you actually believe the games are going to reel in AND retain a new community.

Nope. This was an individual breaking an NDA not a media member. They saw campaign and would never do that. Everyone saw multiplayer 6 months ago. I can't believe people think these screens are the latest. Gears all over again. Someone is getting sued

"whats up Ready Up Live with a crazy brand new video from 343, and let me tell you, if you thought I slrped hard before...just watch this. *12 minutes of slrping sounds*"

 

[-Ryn]

Well it's no barn leak but it's a leak. Seems everything is set and ready for E3.

Guys. 343 apologized. Its all good remember.

So Rags, mah bro, are you tryingn to catch up on missed salt or what's the deal here?

 

[Madness]

he's not as bad as most. his voice can get to me at times though.

He's a good guy, but he's basically a PR mouthpiece at this point. Every single thing about Halo 4 he said was solid, 343 ended up removing. He said we were all crazy then etc. Same thing for Halo 5. He knows who butters the bread. I like the person, but I don't pay any mind to these impressions by what end up being shills. Would like to see the footage though.

What kind of event was this? Did the same people who got H5 early beta access, get to do this new updated multi-player and campaign too?

 

[Slightly Live]

Nope. This was an individual breaking an NDA not a media member. They saw campaign and would never do that. Everyone saw multiplayer 6 months ago. I can't believe people think these screens are the latest. Gears all over again. Someone is getting sued

Leaks rarely come from press. It's usually friends or family of employees of the publisher. Only idiots break NDA's.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Never heard of BoomCo in my life, why do they always seem to go with the 2nd-3rd place market leader?

Dunno. I know Lego refused to work with them on account of the M rating. Not sure what's up with Nerf, tho.

This is a leak from a recent external test of the old beta code. Based on the info posted and Frankie's comment, they made some gameplay tweaks and didn't touch anything else in the code.

This is an NDA breach. Sad part is they will easily find this person. They monitor everything in these environments to see if stuff isn't working.

Mattel owns BoomCo, and Mega Bloks is also owned by Mattel. Makes sense they'd keep the license to one toy company (Nerf is Hasbro).

 

[Fahzgoolin]

Halo 2 on the MCC is still a hit reg HELL.

I just realized that through playing these old Halo MP's that the main issue I have with them was virtually gone in the Halo 5 beta: spawn kills.

I mean I can't think of a time where it was a problem.

 

[Hubble]

Is that because they're doing a pile of remakes, or are the maps good?

Remakes.
