    An update with a plethora of new features will come to the Xbox One in June. EXTERNAL STORAGE SUPPORT With this update the Xbox One will be able to support up to two external hard drives at the same time. This will update allow the user to keep as much data as he desires on his external storage device, keeping the Xbox One's storage nice and clean. There will even be a one-step option to copy entire games to the storage device. Then whenever one needs to access this data on another Xbox, they will only have to sign in to their Xbox Live account and verify that they are indeed the owners of the content. REAL NAMES FOR FRIENDS The Xbox One allows the user to have an incredibly large number of friends-1,000 to be exact. With all these friends it can be hard to remember gamertags, which is why this June users will be able to find one another without the player's gamertag. They will be able to easily find friends using only their name. Every player will have full control of who views their real name, there will be options for sharing with all Friends, only specific friends, friends of friends, or no one. It is also important to note that no one in-game will be able to see players' real names. SMARTGLASS UPDATE Smartglass will be updated to contain all the features of OneGuide and support for Universal Remote Control. This will allow users to access all of their TV listings, channels, and App channels form their Smartglass device. Smartglass will also feature new ways of comparing stats with friends and the option of getting notifications when friends sign in or begin broadcasting a game- Just like being on the console itself. TV AND ONEGUIDE OPENING IN MORE PLACES In April specific members of Xbox Live were granted access to the features of TV and OneGuide. These features will now be available to Xbox Live members in Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the UK. To take advantage of this, members will only need to have an HDMI connection between the TV and XBox One. NEW BENEFITS FOR GOLD MEMBERS AND MORE Xbox Live Gold members will have access to a new hub containing Games With Gold and Deals With Gold. For more reading on June's Games With Gold Click Here. This update will also allow members without a Gold subscription access to many gaming and entertainment apps. Automatic sign-in's will also come with this update. This update will be hitting the Xbox One in June. What do you think of this update? Are you excited about gaining access to all of these awesome features? Be sure to leave us your thoughts in the comments below. SOURCE:XBOX WIRE

    The Elites could have been implemented into multiplayer without breaking canon. It's War Games, who's to say that the 'friendly' Covenant wouldn't assist the UNSC Military? They could hire Elites to particpate in War Games simulation in preparation of running into unfriendly Elites throughout the galaxy. Gameplay and Lore can, and should walk hand in hand.

    The plasma grenades are instant kill and you get two of them. This grenade would have further distance capabilities but would only bring down a player's shields and would only have an effect on the Spartan it hits directly. (Though it'd be pretty awesome if it bounced for the possibility of two players losing their shields)

    This will happen in Spartan Ops, the Champions Bundle only works in WarGames matchmaking. If this is an issue outside of Spartan Ops, you may want to try deleting and then reinstalling your DLC. If this doesn't resolve your problem try posting your issue on Halo Waypoint's forums or sending a tweet to @BSangel Hope that helps, and good luck getting it resolved!

    I love the "I need a weapon" ratings, definitely keep! Great start to the series, I look forward to more episodes. Also, here's my loadout suggestion: Name: XLR8 Primary: Covenant Carbine Secondary: Storm Rifle Grenade: Frag Armor Ability: Thruster Pack Tactical Package: Firepower Support Upgrade: Dexterity Recommended Gametype: FFA Condition: DON'T STOP

    I think that is a matter of opinion. Weapons tend to only be memorable if you loved using them. For people that started the Halo experience with Halo 4, I'm sure weapons like the instant kill Binary Rifle with a never-ending laser and the ultimate camper tool, the Boltshot, are highly memorable. I personally really like the Binary Rifle, it's a One-Shot Wonder, but balanced because of the low ammo cartridges and the laser it emits when scoping scoping. (And let's face it, it's next to impossible to get a snapshot with) I think Halo 4 featured many memorable weapons, UNSC, Covenant, and Forerunners alike. I'm hoping Halo 5 has its share of awesome weapons as well. [Also, how is 'Grenade Launcher' a better name than 'Scattershot' or 'Boltshot?']

    There are no DLC-specific playlists at this time. That being said, most playlists have DLC maps in the rotation that will appear as voting options as long as everyone in the lobby has that DLC. As for DLC-specific playlists returning, that has yet to be determined.

    Did you know that in 2008 when 343 Industries was still forming itself, Microsoft hired Starlight Runner Entertainment to help compile a "Halo Bible?" Every aspect of the Halo universe was to be examined, cleaned up, and made coherent for better understanding. This "Halo Bible" would prove to be very important in the development of Halo 4, and the games that would follow it.

    While we're not official 343i and we personally can't ensure that Halo 5 will be offline friendly, we can promote the idea throughout the Community so that 343 Industries can see it and do something about it, like possibly add Firefight in Halo 5 or make Spartan Ops available for offline play. Also, Welcome to the Community Zjet!

    I love the idea of more movement options. I wouldn't include vault, just because I like the way Halo's jumping works the way it is now. But I would love to have Dolphin Diving ability in Halo 5. It could even be a perk, because I absolutely LOVE Dolphin Diving! I think ladders would be a fun addition to Halo, especially for forgers. Customization that doesn't leave the game unbalanced gets no complaints from me. I agree 100% with this point, not one stance has a Battle Rifle in it! I think a stance should be earned for each of the last three commendation tiers for each weapon. I wouldn't have a problem with this seeing as it would make it feel as though certain types of Spartans actually differed from one another. My only problem with this would be if it affected gameplay in anyway. Armor should have no effect on the outcome of a match.

    I'm holding off on getting an Xbox One at least until this Fall. I remember a rumor that came out back January or February saying that a White Xbox One will be launching. (This was pat of the same rumor that claimed Halo 2: Anniversary would release this Fall) I would personally love to get my hands on a white Xbox One, they look amazing! I also think about the possibility of a Star Wars: Battlefront Xbox One releasing, I'm not sure how likely that is, but it would definitely be worth the wait for me.

    I'd like a Halo 2 style campaign switching between two different characters and seeing the same story unravel form two different angles. I think it'd be awesome if Master Chief and this ONI Spartan each had different strengths and weaknesses as well. Perhaps it could work similarly to the way we have perks in multiplayer, but the player wouldn't be able to choose the perks, they'd be locked to either character.
