she got control again
>>148682352
I want a backwash forge map
>>148682401
I hope she's not a one off, stole the last part of the campaign and it was a pleasant surprise seeing another monitor
>>148682790
it's 343.
They'll find a way to make her suck
>>148682790
She was the least shit part of the campaign.
She's not good still
>>148682906
I love her
>>148682352
Are there any other spooky maps besides backwash and abandon

Pure degeneracy
Has the hot fix actually made much of a difference then? Have they fixed the wardens on apex?
i'm endorsing the other thread to end the thread wars
pic related for proof.
Go here.
Yes this one was first.
Yes it doesn't have /tv/ memes in the OP.
Doesn't matter, the other guy is spazzing out like crazy. That's not what we're here for.
So yeah, go here

Gentlemen, how do we fix Halo for Halo 6?
>>148685253
Remove Spartan abilities but increase base movement speed
>>148685253
Fire the art team
>>148685341
The game would still suck though
>>148685341
That would fix nothing about the game
>>148685253
>Keep gameplay as is
>Re introduce the Brute shot
>Get better armor designers
>Learn how to make actual open vehicle maps
For campaign their fucked no matter what though
I Iike the idea of having an OP that changes to be about the new ibfo, but this is a bit filled.
What can we simplify it down to and agree on so the next OP knows what to use?
>>148685714
Huh, Ark looks a lot smaller than Apex there. Strange considering they're actually roughly the same size
The Arbiter?
We thought he was dead!
>>148685456
It would fix the ugly designs for everything
>>148685341
This.
It amazes me the people constantly criticize 4's art design then turn around and say 5's is an improvement.
So 343 keep teasing us that the updates aren't over, we know that we're getting an in game file brower but what else do you guys think we will get?
Maybe theyl actually add in race at some point and maybe 3 anniversary will be an actual big expansion to 5
>>148686136
Hunters have come to our aid, arbiter!
Except they will leave our aid because Bungie doesn't give a shit about lore consistency
>>148685862
Well the giant circle on ark is unplayable so i guess it is smaller
>>148686301
This
>>148686275Spartan Ops 2
>>148679547
Nth for too small
>>148686483
Pls no
>>148686278
Lore wise there were hunters and grunts and jackals fighting alongside the humans against the covenant in Halo 3
They just didn't put them in for gameplay because they thought it would be too confusing for players. I know I've accidentally shot a grunt or 2 as arbiter before
>>148686275
Im assuming just more forge updates, i doubt anything substantial, the most we'll get is a firefight mini update
>>148686553
That's pretty shit reasoning.
>>148686496
What's different about the H2BR?
>>148686275
Part of me has a feeling they're going to release a forge world canvas, not sure if its already been mentioned on streams or whatever but tons are asking for it and look what happened with the wasp after the reach update
>>148686719
This was the last free update that will include new maps
>>148686719
There will be more updates, such as assault (which sucks btw) but no more maps.
>>148686719
They would never do that
>>148686806
That's not true. The only confirmation we have is that more updates are coming. We don't know if they'll be free or cost money.
>>148687061
Free maps are over.
This has been confirmed
>>148686553
>thought it would be too confusing for players
> I've accidentally shot a grunt or 2 as arbiter before
You wot, are you blind AND dumb? Theres an entire cutscene AND mission showing you fight with grunts and even the enemy ones are distinctly different.
>>148687157
Pls don't bully
>>148686719
A forge world canvas would be nice to look at but I think we are covered when it comes to canvases, would rather they keep adding more gametypes like and give oddball its own proper gametype
>>148687092
Show me the source the
>>148687419
Google.com
>>148687373
We don't have a single canvas that compares to forge world
>>148687157
Not during the final arbiter missions. Only the heretic grunts actually look different
Unto the breach we go
>>148687475
Good job faggot but the meme you're spewing isn't true
Nothing has been confirmed other than "more updates are coming"
>>148687726

>>148687726
>I missed customs again
Customs always seem to pop up when I'm extremely fucking busy and when they're arranged for Fridays usually nothings said or they start way too late
>>148688176
Oh...yeah
>>148688339
I might do MCC tonight, but I have no idea which thread to communicate through
>>148688429
I honestly dont know at this point, are they both gonna keep going until one gets removed?
>>148688339
Nah, it was posted in the thread a couple of times and started on time.
They went for around four hours, too.
I'm not Red, so I'm punctual.
>>148688530
>I honestly dont know at this point, are they both gonna keep going until one gets removed?
The problem extends beyond that.
Links to both threads were posted seconds after hitting image bump. That means both anons had their threads made with pictures uploaded ready to hit post then quickly tag and link BEFORE the other thread hit bump limit.
We need to ban both of these people from making threads and find someone we can rely on.
>>148688917
Or look at the one that made it before we hit image limit. I'm willing to give the second guy the benefit of the doubt since his was made after we hit the limit.
>>148688917
This has everything to do with the numbering.
Ever since the first numbered thread, every thread after it has been made precisely at bump limit.
One faggot is clearly triggered so much by numbering that he is going out of his way to pre-make threads.
I'm actually pro-number, but fuck it, let the non-number autist have his way and after a while things will return to normal.
>>148688917
We should just have whoever watches the thread the most be in charge of it
>>148689390
Guy that actually went through the archives and did the numbering reporting.
This sounds like a good compromise to me. After all, you can't beat a determined autist that has nothing better to do.
What I'll do is just post in new threads to remind people of what number were on, but we can keep it out of the OP.
>>148689390
Didn't we have multiple people say they'd rather not do it and wouldn't bother with it?
>>148689481
>We should just have whoever watches the thread the most be in charge of it
That's impossible to determine, but if you need a candidate, I'll volunteer.
But if you want somebody else, that's fine.
>>148689678
No. More people were actually in favor of it.
But just because they're in favor doesn't mean they all care of its not there.
There's clearly some guy that cares A LOT if it's there.
>>148689750
I usually watch it all day since I have nothing much to do other than rebuilding a shed and vidya.
I can make more OP images too, make things interesting at least.
>>148689539
Just make threads like normal, who knows what else "won't be allowed" in the OPs. They're fucking numbers.
As long as you copy and paste the main parts of the OP and have a related image its fine by me but the generals shouldn't be ran by the same few people all of the time, which is how it will end up
>>148690081
Is the one with the bourbon meant to be a reference to kai or big red? kek
>>148689968
If I have to make a thread I'm not gonna bother with it, since it's an extra step and I think it's dumb
>>148690289
Just a reference to the looting at riots, since they always steal booze and shit like toilet paper.Although they're both raging alcoholics.
I like the changes they made to Urban, it's actually possible to win now
>compromise rules for new threads
1. Keep non-vidya memes and drama out of the OP
2. Keep the OP pic Halo related
3. Keep the OP material relevant and updated, but don't allow it to become a fucking essay in length
4. Do not make the thread early
5. Do not post the thread early
6. Number the thread, but not in the thread title. Do it in the body text.
These are perfectly middle-of the road agreements.
>>148691740
Did anyone else actually like the Halo 4 store line when you ignore the shit gameplay?
I wish they hadn't have done the stupid as shit revival in 5
>complete Master Chief Saga playlist
>Don't get the achievement
I'm fucking assblasted right now.
I hate playing through Halo CE and like 2 levels from Halo 2, the fact that the time I spent on playing through that entire playlist for no reward is rage inducing.
>>148692450
I understand what you're saying, I really do, but at the same time, you shouldn't be playing through all the levels just for an achievement.
If you enjoyed the ride, you got your worth
>>148692450
Have you check the unlocked achievements in the guide tab? I rarely get achievement notifications now but I have heard that that achievement is pretty fucked
>>148692280
The only rule should be don't make it early
>>148692595
>The only rule should be don't make it early
/hg/ drama is cancerous, not vidya, and objectively does not belong in the OP
>>148688357
who the fuck has a head shaped like that
>>148692734
That was only an issue once and we already know who did it
>>148692578
I did. Progress bar is empty and the achievement still says locked. I'm pretty rattled over this, especially because I don't want to go through the task again after dumping 10+ hours or so into beating it.
>>148692557
I do enjoy it when I can. I enjoy speed running 3 and 4 and bits of 2 that I know how to do. But there are just some levels I can't stand. Specifically the second half of CE after Guilty Spark and the later levels of 2 where you run through High Charity.

>I'm only getting molten for slayer

I've always enjoyed at least hammering the Campaign once for the plot, then again for the challenge, and then grinding Multiplayer for everything it has. The only reason I'm still even playing is to finish the easier commendations.
>>148700291
>tfw I'm done with everything
Why do I still play this
>>148700004
>I haven't gotten Molten once yet
I'll trade with you ;^)
The one good thing I can say about molten is that even though it's built out of re-used Rig assets, it doesn't play anything like the Rig or a remix of it.
For all intents and purposes, it is a new map.
Do I like it?
No. But I can at least give it more respect than Regret/Truth, Empire/Eden, or Fathom/Riptide
We got an Arbiter in Killer Instinct top 3 at EVO right now. Isn't that nice?

Sup, /hg/. Today I got an XBONE as a birthday present and a friend gifted me Master Chief Collection and Halo 5.
I haven't really paid any attention to the game.
I stopped playing at 4, anything good came out of 5?
>>148704761
REQ packs.
>>148704761
>anything good came out of 5?
I can't help but laugh at this question. The game is riddled with kusoge. Arena is fun.
>>148704761
The story was ass the gameplay is great so basically its the exact oppisite of halo 4
>>148704821
What are those?
>>148704761
>Today I got an XBONE as a birthday present and a friend gifted me Master Chief Collection and Halo

>>148704989
They're like microtransactions, but the same.
>>148704761
Campaign is shit, worst in the series. Multiplayer is god tier, best in the series if you're not a nostalgiafag.
>>148705476
It has too little content and a few balance problems for it to be the best in the series, but it's still good.
>>148705559
It has enough content now

Halo 4 is the best multiplayer in terms of game variety as long as you're not playing Infinity slayer. Promethean weapons were broke as fuck though.

>inb4 git gud
>>148706459
Just get hit by it. It has enough recovery to where you'd be able to kill them before they can shoot. You'd get killed by the teammate nearby though.
>>148706459
>inb4 git gud
Posting that doesn't give you any credit, that's exactly what you need to do to avoid getting killed like that.
>>148706553
They purposely designed it so that you can spartan charge + AR spray before someone can properly react to you. Spartan Charge is basically the Halo 2 melee, but it does even more damage.
>>148706553
This. Jut put a few rounds into them then melee or just boost at them after contact and keep meleeing.

>>148707042
He didn't know that you were behind and you managed to hit him on the back for an instant kill as punishment. Not OP.
>>148707287
It's not a glitch, it's just SC's broken tracking. If you have a red reticle when you hit the melee button, you're pretty much guaranteed to hit.

>>148707335
>literally does an automatic u-turn to hit a guy around a corner
>not OP
I don't really like spartan charge in arena desu.
>>148707042
jesus
You should be able to side boost a charge like a matador.
Am I the only one here who has almost never been killed by Spartan charge or felt it was unbalanced? I hardly even use it or even see it used. Basically only good for 1 hit kills in SWAT or breakout
it takes 2 steps to get to max speed
sprint was a mistake
>>148707483
>charge in a straight line
>hits his BACK for an instant kill
>ridiculous
Still not OP
>>148707781
2 steps to reach max speed and gain an autoaim melee that does more damage(if they get hit by a single BR burst, spartan charge is lethal).
>>148707751
I just think it's annoying.
Every arena playlist would be improved without it except maybe breakout, I don't play it enough to say.
>>148707818
And what if he hadn't been facing backward? It's not the fact he got a kill, it's the fact he was able to literally land a spartan charge from around a corner.
>>148707042
I lik this game
>>148707042
>ninety degree angle turn
>>148707983
He was already around the corner before he pressed the button.
>>148708210
And the guy was still 45 degrees from the middle of his screen.
>>148708090
>All these scrubs complaining about spartan charge
Annoying yes but OP? Absolutely not.
>>148708318
The majority of kills in last HCS match were form spartan charge.

SPartan charge is armor lock of halo 5.
>>148709227
Alright that's it, im done with you. I'm comfy watching KI finals and i'm not wasting more time with you.
>>148707042
I always hate it whenever I do this. I also hate it when the game makes me take an arbitrary curve at a guy straight ahead, I hit a piece of scenery, stop dead in my tracks while making a loud noise, and get punched and then shot.
So yeah, next game should just have melee and no charge.
>>148709450
>comfy
How can you be comfy watching Gargos throw kusoge everywhere?
>>148708265
The reticle was red which allowed him to land the hit.
>>148709450
Watch a real fighting game like Smash.
>>148709762
>he doesn't enjoy ORAORAORAORA the character
If Spartan charge were to be removed from halo 6, what sort of ability would you like to see instead? Doesn't have to involve melee or sprint
