  1. Welcome to the site Zyrax Starfire. The servers are usually pretty whacked out. I would suggest always beginning with a hard restart of your Xbox. I used to have to do that every time I started my game. It's annoying but can prove to be beneficial.

    Set forum to self destruct

     

    Alright, so with the Cooliest Drizzy_Dan Administration wanting to make the forum great again and as we all know theres the whole issue of well us the members being a rare breed so the Staff can't do anything with no community what about increasing interaction on the forum like objectives etc that allow members to get awards and what not I believe giving us a reason to come back would be fundamental in bringing the desired activity numbers back. Halo 5 literally was a kick in the pants to the forum which is why the numbers have dropped I know it wasn't the start but it was what finished alot of people off after bleeding out.

     

    Community Events could see a return as well but once again the staff would need that interaction/member count to make it a sustainable thing to do. Maybe a site refresh of backgrounds/banners could help freshen up the forum too.

     

    I also think the news group could come back too as another way to keep a lively flow of activity so that the forum doesn't get stagnant having a constant flow of news would provide new things to talk about. (maybe revitalise the Youtube channel and post a weekly recap of news on it as well as forum machinimas and other content)

     

    Streams could also be featured maybe? to have engagement or things to watch?

     

    We're certainly on the same page.

  3. There were some good aspects to the campaign of Halo 5 but I have to disagree with you on this being the best campaign. I really think that this campaign was disappointing in gameplay and narrative. You bring up good points but the lack of character development, real danger, and the absolutely poor mishandling of Cortana has led my ultimate disdain for it. 

  4. Halo can recover if 343 goes back to the game's roots. Call of Duty just did it and I have friends who haven't touched an Xbox since MW2 was still popular telling me they might get back into it because of this game. 

     

    The community is so divided though it's a mess. A lot of people love the new evolved style of play with Sprint and Spartan Abilities and more like the classic gameplay but not by enough otherwise 343 would've done it already. They've been put in a horrible position by the community and the only way to get out is to cater to one side (which is going to hurt a lot for whichever side loses in the future).

     

    I love Halo 5 honestly but I think people would return and numbers would grow if they just took a step backward gameplay-wise and give it a great run and gun campaign.

  5. The Halo 4 file share has been down now for a month or so. Anybody know if it's ever coming back?

     

    I don't think it's ever coming back with 343's full focus being on Halo Wars 2 DLC and the next title.

     

    I think any maintenance on MCC or backwards compatible games is out of the question unfortunately

  6. They can implement Team BRs if they find it to be in high demand. Right now it's just classic slayer with AR Magnum starts and default weapons on the map.

     

    I have yet to see any crouching involved in gameplay.

     

    No public list of maps and weapons yet.

     

    Not sure what the server tick rate is.

     

    In terms of matchmaking, I'm not sure if that's a thing yet. I believe matches will be hosted at first kind of like the original Gears lobbies.

     

    No to recon but yes to girlfriends.

     

    @@Church and @@TheChunkierBean can answer these better for you.

  7. No estimated release date yet.

     

    There will be playable Elites if that counts!

     

    Campaign is possible but that is not the team's main focus.

     

    There will be no hit markers but they can do that if they wanted to.

     

    I have yet to see any powerups, just weapons so far.

  8. The UNSC would not have had a chance going up against the full force of a unified Covenant. Not only was there the Great Schism but the Covenant was also fighting the Banished during the long war. 

     

    The Infinity, big and mighty as she is, isn't even enough to destroy a former full Covenant on her own. Let's just say Master Chief's luck worked for many more than just him during the war.
