I think Giantbomb will have their stream available on Youtube

What time?

 

[Xzilerate1690]

I don't want to know what the actual spoilers are, but I do want to know if the spoilers so far are awesome.

They are. The gameplay is incredible. The Spartan abilities are awesome. The squad mechanic doesn't make things too easy. And the cutscenes are beautiful.

 

[Flipyap]

Those civilian workers' googly-eyed masks are adorable.

Wish these guys would stop talking...

But then how would you know what's sick and what's tight? (Spoiler: everything is tight)

 

[jbug617]

What time?

in 30 minutes (4:30pm EST)

 

[Saucycarpdog]

Midnight 26th

The review embargo won't be lifted till midnight 26th? Damn that's some ubisoft levels of shadiness right there. Still looking forward though.

I think you can see on the stream how much better the feedback is when engaging forerunner guys. Especially once you figure out the weak points.

Fixed in bold.

That's not an unusual embargo, lets them play MP for a good while before reviewing and if we were nervous (beyond normal stage nerves) and shady then presumably the embargo would be AFTER the game came out...

 

[Random17]

Prometheans driving warthogs not scripted

Good AI trait

They can teleport into them too

 

[TheOddOne]

Oh, hey.. what is going on here.

I'm out.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Knights look like beasts now!!

"Tight!"

He's wrong, it's midnight of the 25th

 

[op_ivy]

an honest to goodness warthog level! this aint no halo 4 crap either

 

[draughn101]

Seems to happen on quick, contrasty blacks. SPOILERS but they dealt with those Hunters very cautiously. I'm too dumb to not go downstairs and engage.


DON'T TUNE IN NOW SPOILER MADNESS

I was just starting to get weak. Great save

 

[SamastahSukhino]

Fuck it. Purchased wifi on my flight. Surprisingly it's pretty fast and am watching gamespots stream in 720p. Can't miss watching my boy. #teamlocke

 

[Lakitu]

What mission is this?

 

[rrc1594]

So Sunday? That enough time to bail out if you don't like reviews. This game can get 6s it's still day 1

 

[Stinkles]

tank time

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Spoiler

MINING TANK!

tank time

Sweet baby Jesus.

 

[Random17]

I'm apparently 5 minutes ahead of you guys?

 

[draughn101]

He's wrong, it's midnight of the 25th

My bad. I got that from an earlier post

Review embargo up on the 26th, 12AM PT/3AM ET.

25th it is!!!

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Okay...now I see why the cut scene before the intro was not released yet.

Spoiler

Kill us Both just took a whole new mearing

God Damn!

 

[matthieuC]

What a cool mission. Looks great.

Holy shit did you see Tanaka

 

[Sikamikanico]

I've not watched any streams - going in fresh tomorrow. Really looking forward to this. Squeeeeeeee is the only appropriate expression I can think of really.

 

[Welfare]

Vale and Tanaka were pretty stupid right there. Why would they go in separate warthogs?

 

[Lakitu]

What missions did Gamespot play?

 

[Flipyap]

Do Prom Knights occupy a different role in the enemy sandbox this time? The steam made them seem closer to a Hunter equivalent, requiring much more work than your typical Elite stand-in.

 

[shinobi602]

Aghh, fuck...you...all.

 

[EroticSushi]

Is there going to be any other streams besides Gamestop?

What missions did Gamespot play?

[jbug617]

IGN and Giantbomb should start soon

 

[draughn101]

all threads are getting spoilers now. Abandon ship!!!

....but first save Dumb and Dumber gif...

Yeah, they've all changed - some a little, and some a lot. And when the Warden shows up...

The GameSpot stream won't work and me

Suppressor's ADS look is dope.

I am 100% sure that gadget was intentional trolling. Will it be a req card though?

I thought he squad-ordered vale. I might have mis-seen. If you tell them to get in diff. vehicles, they will. Will also happen (like in real life) when one of them sees or misconstrues another player's intent.

Aghh, fuck...you...all.

Exactly. Fuck.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Let's get some non spoilery impressions from you bold individuals.

Everything looks solid and good.

Story seems on point.

Graphics look good, considering it was a live stream with some Gamespot weirdness going on.

Controls seem good.

Overall it's very "tight".

 

[EroticSushi]

Thumbs up to IGN for actually not talking during the cutscenes.

 

[Pattycakes]

I'm really tempted to watch these streams, but I don't want to watch them and then remove all the magic from Halo 5.
