Looks like every set of matches for a game includes 2 FFA games before it. We can probably make the teams roughly based on how people do in those.

>>339046690
S-so you were just messing around anout having me on your friends list already right?
>>339046690
Well, the reason why I suggested that is because they've been trying to garner a game night for the past week or so. (And fail almost every single time that they do)
The threads usually devolve into some other minor discussion like map designs or some shit from their discord.
I just thought it'd kill two birds.
>>339044190
>Would it be at all possible to inject Coldsnap into Halo MCC?
The problem isn't injecting the map.
The problem is that Coldsnap is built to run on custom edition which at the coding level is a much different game than standard Halo PC.

I got the first 4 with checkpoints and LASO'd ODST with some help. It wasn't too bad. Coastal Highway has a lot of RNG and can take 2 hours, but it's fun so whatever.

Anyone know if Halo Reach works on One now or does it still have a terrible framerate?
>>339055476
It always had a terrible framerate.
When does this scene take place?
Its not around reach because she's too old looking, she's not wearing her coat and the picture of miranda has her white suit so that's after halo two's first mission, its not after halo 4/spartan ops because her arm is not missing and chief had cortana on requiem/died at the end of 4...so when?
This scene has had me puzzled since this game came out.
>>339055938
343 can't into consistent canon
>>339055938
It's literally right before she gives Cortana to noble team.
Any cosmetic differences are just that.
>>339055630
Back when I tested it for backwards compatibility it ran at 5-10 fps and froze tons.
>>339055476
Ever since the 1 gb update reach has worked fine for me.
>>339056202
But Miranda keys ....
This is her face on the picture, its straight from halo 2 anniversary and there was a camera on that scene so pictures where definitely taken before the attack on the station...
>>339056570
It's just supposed to be a picture of Miranda
>>339056570
They don't really care about consistency
The CE armour was retconned in halo 4s intro cutscene and replaced with the 4 armor, yet they still explain why the normal halo 2/3 armor changed in halo 4 while MC was in stasis, despite just showing how Spartan armor has apparently always looked like that

>>339056789
I never noticed that, damn
>>339056789
The CE armor was redesigned.
It's just a newer artist's interpretation of what the armor looks like.
It hasn't actually been changed with nanobots like some people claim
>>339057042
I never played the beta, why didn't they keep br/ar starts? Looks more fun.
>>339057209
>I never played the beta, why didn't they keep br/ar starts? Looks more fun.
Big Team Battle has BR/AR starts.
For all ranked playlists except SWAT and Breakout, it's SR/Magnum starts, which is fine because unless you're fighting in a huge field, the magnum is a better weapon than the BR in Halo 5
>>339057209
It's not, trust me. The AR/magnum starts is perfect.
>>339057134
They already confirmed that prologue cutscene isn't canon.
>>339057159
Don't they say that in the game though? How come older variants even exist in multiplayer with lore connected to them? Why was his armor not changed in halo 2 anniversary? It's poorly thought out and the new design goes against the bulky military look the other games had going.
>>339057209
The BR is too easy to use. It works alright as a limited pickup, since the spawn weapons aren't weak garbage in 5.
>>339057510
fuck off faggot
>>339057418
That magnum is so fucking good in 5

Hey i got a lobby up right with a friend if you guys wanna play right now. My tag is in the name spot just send me your tags and ill invite you.
>>339057418
>the magnum is a better weapon than the BR in Halo 5
The magnum is the worst precision weapon, I don't know what you're talking about. It has the least aim assist and it's kill time is on par with the DMR and BR which have more aim assist.
>>339057503
All it says in the game is that she made modifications to his HUD while he was in cryo.
The armor hasn't changed. It just looks different the same way all the guns look different.
And while I too enjoy the original look of the MK6 better, it's not really worth complaining over cosmetic changes when there's bigger problems.
>>339057772
best bungie pistol was h1 and reach
>>339058041
It's the hardest to use but if you're good it's a better weapon than the BR and it's far more versatile for variable situations.
At high levels of play, it gets used more than the BR
>>339057418
>>339057496
>>339057603
I've always wanted to test br start in arena arena maps. Pistol might be more balanced but when you shoot with the br it feels powerful as hell.
>>339058292
>At high levels of play, it gets used more than the BR
Because the BR is a pick up on map, of course the spawn weapon is going to be used the most. If you gave one team BRs and the other pistols the BRs would win most of the time due to the ease of use. The BR only kills .03 slower than the pistol which doesn't make a difference in online play due to latency.
>>339046141
No, fuck off. We don't want to play you're shit game. And we don't want anything to do with /v/
>>339058516
>>339058538
The BR is an easier weapon to use.
It's the reverse of how it was in previous halo's, where now, pros let the noobs grab the DMR because it buffs them.

I already told OP I can't make it tonight.
I just don't like that there is a pretty successful Halo night planning thread going on here and it started going to shit as soon as none other than /hg/ showed up and started shitposting it. The irony is pretty annoying.
>>339059123
Precision weapons in general feel bad at close range but that's because of how acceleration curves work in 5
>>339060380
I was one of the first posters in this thread and an active poster in /hg/, don't blame us all for a few faggy shitposters in that general.
>>339060603
Fair enough.
/hg/ probably wouldn't seem so bad if Spartan companies could have 200 members. It's the exclusivity thing that breeds the arrogance.
>>339061125
/hg/ would have been fine if Achilles never existed. Nobody really cared about the company before then.
