Halo 5: Guardians |OT| The Trials of Osiris

People quiting in mp is a serious issue :(

Hopefully the ban hammer starts coming down sooner now.


Is there skill based match making on Warzone or not? Like every match I lose, more than 3/4th of my team are like 2-16, 1-12, 4-20, 3-12, 4,-12, 1-10, 4-9, 3-12. While no one on the enemy team hits negative KDA.
 
343 needs to allow us to quit games with no punishment when we are the last person on our team. I got banned for quitting last night and the only times I've ever left a match have been when I was the last person on my team. Now I just sit afk until the match ends letting my Spartan die 30 times. That's no fun. Not for me, not for the enemy team. It also doesn't help my stats, and I know some people will say "who cares about your stats" but at the end of the day I shouldn't have I suffer through this when its not my fault my other three teammates quit. 343 needs to look into this.

I would rather they boost the survivors shields by 2-3x to encourage that person staying.
 
Took me 9 hrs on normal to beat the campaign. That was without looking for skulls or exploring. Had a blast and will be diving in deep during heroic.
 
Frankie, if you see this, could you please make a request to change the colour of your Fireteam's service tags in Warzone, and also make them permanently viewable regardless of where they are on the map.

It's so hard to find your Fireteam at times. Especially when you don't have a mic. Surely it's possible? It would promote teamwork.

Yeah, the whole thing where teammate indicators disappear at a certain distance is really offputting.
 
I finally completed the campaign on heroic. It picked up well enough after the first couple of missions and I found myself having a lot of fun. I'm glad they didn't leave me confused and feeling left out of the loop. I'll do a legendary run soon enough. Anyway, very good game. The folks at 343, I feel, have hit their stride.

Right. I have a tough time keeping situational awareness. I and my buddies often have to ask each other where we are in the map. It doesn't have to be that way.
 
Fireteams in Warzone need waypoint markers, different color on the radar, and the ability to tag things so everyone else in the fireteam can see it (smaller bosses far away that don't show up at a waypoint or enemy team tanks, etc).
 
Any Warzone players that opened a pack and got a dmr yet? I've yet to get one. Do you have to be a certain rank to unlock it?

I have yet to see a dmr in the mode, nor a phaeton. They seem very rare lol.

Also they need to move the spawn points closer to the bases in warzone assault. way too much sprinting
 
I know a lot of the talk has moved to the MP, but for someone that has not finished the game yet, just starting Mission 12, I am loving the SP portion thus far. Mission 7 & 8 were the two most impressive Halo levels and I have played all the previous games. The game looks and plays really great and I really love some of the big open environments. Just a fantastic game thus far....can't wait to jump into MP when I have more time.
 
I just fucking love these Grunts man.

The one that was singing, so freaking hilarious. With pain in my heart i kicked him off the mountain...well...not pain, but you know. :)

Or their comments: ''Just stay right there and let me shoot you'' and sooooo much more. I definitely am going to restart the campaign after i finish it and really pay attention to the Grunts more, haha.
There's some good lines in there.

Vale: "Hold on, I've got to give this Sangheili a noble death."

I was like, yeah, ok.
 
Ugh I cannot get my game on tonight. Finishing up my FFA match placements and I haven't got higher than third yet. Still getting put in Onyx match ups so I guess its trying to make me Diamond even though I'm struggling :/
 
I had to force quit halo 5 because it was stuck searching for a fireteam but the menus broke and I could not do anything, gave it a few minutes but nothing.
 
Tomorrow in the evening we're planning on playing some online MP. I have a question about that.

Basically it will be me and four friends. This is already too much for Team Slayer. I know there's Warzone and Warzone assault, but is there a way for all of us join other modes as well? Otherwise it'll only be Warzone for us and that's a shame.
 
it was the first map I played online
and I was like "geezus we sacrificed alot to hit 60 huh"
then I heard it was a forge map

I think it does an okayish job visually, at least in terms of individual parts. Some of the pieces (like the blue wall) and the rocky area are pretty good looking, makes me feel good about Forged BTB maps. As a whole, though, it is pretty dull. Think it might be the light choice in part.
