Unease Peanut

Aside from flaming heads to show off you're loyalty, the AA effects were pretty distracting. Also the plopping and children cheers, although funny the first few times, quickly got annoying and took away some of the immersion.

Have a good one. Come back ASAP though

Let me ruin all of your days! I'm pretty much available every evening, though I have a very irregular schedule. I'll make it work with whoever I get paired up with through PM's. Is that OK?

I think you can drop the question mark. There is no other option.

Well it's been nice knowing you all... 'cuz we gon' die!

That wasn't downloading, that was installing. If you have the disk you can install it without an internet connection.

Master Chief dies in a quick time event in the opening cutscene of the game.

Like Caboose said we can't help you with any of that. What I can do is give you a tip to make the waiting time a bit easier on you. Go to your system options and select the stand-by option so games and updates can download even when you've turned your Xbox off (this will cause your Xbox to make noise while being off due to the cooling system still running). This will allow the download to continue while you sleep.

The Xbox Wire posts states that it wasn't an available option in the initial set-up outside of Europe.

When Bravo told us they'd be releasing more info following up to the release he wasn't kidding. Grimbrother One on Waypoint, who does the weekly Cannon Fodders, revealed to us the description of the new map Ramnant. The looks of the map are described as follows: "A secluded island, hidden along the coastal regions of Delta Halo, Remnant features a towering and iconic Forerunner megalith, weathered by untold millennia. Resembling other artifacts on Delta Halo, this enigmatic megalith became the site of comprehensive research by Lisbon pioneer groups. Local inscriptions catalogued by the Lisbon pioneer groups indicate that this towering megalith was constructed to pay tribute to Warrior-Servants who perished during the final siege of Forerunner colonies by ancient human invaders. After the Flood had overwhelmed key human strongholds, their incursions into Forerunner territory became violent as they attempted to contain the parasite through preemptive firebreak measures such as planetary immolation. The Forerunners struck back with devastating force, and many lives were lost on both sides." It's cool that the map gets tied in with some lore this way. On the way we'll be playing this map we get this description: "As a War Games map environment, the site’s asymmetric layout and the artifact’s elevated, yet embedded position make it ideal for offense/defense engagements, including 1-Flag and Assault simulation objectives. Natural rock formations, outlying elements of the artifact, and a localized teleportation device offer an array of combat scenarios and infiltration methods that have been embraced by Spartans since Relic—the original version of this map—was introduced years ago." Looks like we'll be doing some more bomb assaults and 1 sided CTF like the good ol' days. Makes me wonder what the interactive feature on this map will be besides the teleporter. Unless it is the teleporter ofcourse... Are you excited to play on this map once again? And what do you think would be a cool interactive feature on this map? Let us know down below!

For a moment you got me thinking you were actually about to kill off all characters that easily. Glad you didn't though... Don't play with our emotions like that!

We riot!

How long have you tried waiting? Sometimes the installation progress bar doesn't correctly represent the download status. One time my MCC kept getting stuck at 12% but after waiting an hour or so (length depends on your download speed) it shot up to 80% If that isn't the problem you could try to cancel and restart the download. Not pausing it, not interrupting the download by turning off your Xbox again and again and not doing anyhting with your Xbox in general will help the download along as well.

They're slowly releasing bits and pieces of the game to create hype. Telling us all about what Halo 5 will be all about now will spoil just about everything and drop sales dramaticly. If you want to know what there's is to know at this time just Google it. There's already a ton of info on the game out there.

The community index. From there I can go to Halo & Gaming News for work, the new content tab to see what's new, the latest posts and topics to make sure I didn't miss anything and the shoutbox for fun. I don't tend to stick to a certain part of the forum.

Why don't we just Google all this?

A new update is now available for the Master Chief Collection! This update adds Team objective for the rotational playlist this month. And through extensive feedback (and alot of whining) the SWAT playlist is now permanent and Halo CE will now give us the option to vote for Slayer more often. Voting slots 1 and 2 in the Halo CE playlist will now ONLY give Slayer options. 343i is also aware of the issue that Halo CE now has the motion tracker enabled, they're already looking into resolving this. Additionally some more maps have been added to certain playlists and updates have been made to gametypes and maps. Here they are: Burial Mounds has been added to Halo 2 classic and Team Objective Exile and Harvest CTF have been added to Halo 4 Longest has been added to Halo 4 Team Slayer The occurence of Warlord BRs in Halo 2 Anniversary has been reduced The Halo Chapionship Series playlist has been updated to the latest tournament settings Map variants Pit Stop, Sand Tarp, Epilogue and Boundless have been added to Halo 3 We'll also get some ranked playlists that have not yet been released, but will be as soon as possible. The playlists you can look out for are: Halo CE Halo 2 Classic Halo 3 Halo 4 Team Hardcore The remaining featured playlists will not get ranking but will be making use of skill matchmaking. Team Slayer will become unranked somewhere around June as all featured Halo titles will get individual ranking. "While the appeal of a who’s-the-best-all-around-Halo-Slayer ranked playlist is a particularly interesting one, we also see great value in a social slay-‘em-all experience, and we wanted to provide a head’s up in case you’re on the grind." ~Bravo 343i knows that some people want other playlists ranked or even not ranked, but they state they cannot accomodate to each individual player. Instead they'll read as much feedback as possible and will adjust likewise. Team Doubles, Halo 3 Hardcore and 8v8 BTB are on the way but require some additional updates before they can be implemented. Team doubles will even return as a permanent playlist and will feature more variety in maps. Halo: ODST and the Relic remake are also on the way this month and 343i has released the official name of the remake. Which will be: More details on this will be released following up to the release. Is there anything you would like to see added/removed? Let us know down below! Thank you for reading! Source: Halowaypoint View full article

Put it in this sub-forum and I'm sure some people will give it a read. I know I will
