Arena had zero population when I checked it a couple of times over the past couple of months
They should know to AFK farm firefight for credits.

Lame, everyone is just sticking to the top playlists. Needs more in BTB and Anni Classic. Oh and MLG's pop is looks nice too.

Maybe people just weren't playing it. Arena had very low population before Halo 4 was out.
The counter was never broken.
Does the switch have 4 ports on the back or is there a 5th port specifically for connecting to another device? I the switch only has 4 ports on the back, you'll only be able to connect 6 Xboxes in.
All transition titles(3/Reach) had broken counters about a month before Halo 4 shipped.
I was just telling my buddy this as well! It sure would be nice not to have to wait until 2AM my time (central) if it doesn't come out until 12AM pacific time.
Nope, every other game that has allowed digital pre-loading/pre-ordering hasn't come out until 12AM Pacific making everyone else in the USA wait until well after midnight to play their game.

Shit, it's been 4 years already. I always remember the Halo 3 and ODST dates, but Reach slipped my mind. :lol
Playing Destiny, some of the music brings back memories of sitting in the lobby in Reach.
Let's get that MCC train going. I'm in the mood for some Haloez.

This is a pretty standard description for new comic solicitations. New story arc tends to be expressed as "great jumping on point". I wouldn't read too much into it.

Yeah it's so strange how that's been a thing so far.. East Coast Best Coast.

So where is your helmet spartans? RIP spartans
Palmer should die at the beginning of Halo 5, because she's not wearing her helmet. A bloody headshot.
What about a face hugger style infection form? If there's flood.

On a different note I have not seen anyone complain about sprint in Destiny in PvE or PvP. Considering how much stick Halo 4/Reach got about sprint I just found that interesting.

You can't strafe worth shit in Destiny thanks to Sprint. There. I said it.

Different games, no? I don't mind sprint in COD or Battlefield.
I wonder if 343 can have the MCC be "Halo" for voice commands. "Xbox, go to Halo" rather than "Xbox, go to Halo: The Master Chief Collection"

Amusingly, after I stopped sprinting in PvP, my K/D went waaaaay up. Sprinting people are easy to kill
Yup seems more logical to have people get it early for buying digital rather than having to wait. FH2 choosing 12est makes me believe its up to the developer so hopefully 343 chooses right!
Frankie plz!

I've only played half a dozen or so PvP matches but I used it very similar to Halo 4 sprint. I sprint to get near where I am going then just play no sprint as I approach the battle/enemy.
i do, i have enjoyed every issue so far
Or use sprint to run out of a sticky situation if you think you will die otherwise.
Also, there's probably less outcry about it because Destiny plays more similar to CoD than it does to Halo.

Sprint out of trouble, sure on occasion e.g. I realise I'm about to get stomped by 3 or 4 enemies at once on radar or I want to bait them back into a kill zone for my team mates.

Eh. Just read the plot synopsis and/or tvtropes page. You'll be about as caught up as you can be without having to deal with the art.

I've enjoyed the latter Halo comics and I have bought less than 10 comics my entire life. I think too many here actually take the snippets of bad art as if the whole comic is like that. It's not, there is some shit stuff, some average and some good. Overall worth the $3 or $4 given the story.

Yeah that Destiny Raid... Stupid hard. :'(
Actually surprised by how seemingly tough it is. Can't wait to jump in myself

We've totally got to try that raid again. I'm level 26 now, and we should probably only have 26+.

I've tried it twice with two different groups and we can't even open the door to get into the Raid. I love how challenging it is, but it can certainly be discouraging trying to open a damn door for 1 hour+ and getting nowhere fast. I'm a sucker for the high difficulty PvE stuff, so I'll keep trying. Just got to get a good group of level 26+ players with a lot of class and gear variety. I'm determined to get it done, though.
Sprint is so necessary to getting that "flow" going in Destiny that it's just wrecked my left thumbstick on my xbone controller.
Yes we should. And yes 26+ seems pretty necessary from what I've gathered
(via epic failure after epic failure)

I have this armor that gives me instant weapon switching.
Halo needs instant weapon switching. My fingers and brain want to move faster than what the controls allow me to. Speed this game up a bit in places where it'll help IMO.

Did you retire as the GOAT though?
Same here!
That would be unfair. I can just imagine shotgun combos.
We don't need that in Halo lol. Noob combos would destroy the game.
