So does anyone have any idea when 343i will give us any more data on Halo 5/ Halo xbox one? thoughts, theaories? i was checking the web for any major game conventions i might not have been aware of. im just getting antsy to know ANYTHING more about the next in halo in the series.
-
So I was thinking about this pretty strongly... should 343i include a free, community made map pack? It would be filled with maps for each game mode, and some extra aesthetically pleasing details. The maps might be made by THFE, or they could be by unassociated map makers. I think this would improve community morale, bring players back to Halo, and be lots of fun. Also, they could add these maps to the official multiplayer playlists or even have one of its own. Obviously it would take place on the four forge maps in Halo 4, and they would be equally varied and distributed. I think this addition would be promising. I know that they do already have community maps in War Games, but I'm asking for a full fledged map pack that is treated as so and even includes achievements. Anyways, guys, your opinions?

i have recently started playing halo again and am sad to say its still glitchy and unbalanced as hell. I remember when i first started playing halo 4 i loved it even though it glitchy i played through since it was new and my first multiplayer experience. But then people started playing exile a lot and it was unbalanced. The tank was basically lets face it owned by the red team since it was a sprint a way from their spawn. While the blue team had the Gauss cannon which could destroy the tank in 2 hits and since it had unlimited range this was not hard. People by luck got on the blue team and were thankful. Now lets get to ricochet about 1 year has passed since exile was like it was. Then a patch came around and fixed that up and now its more balanced. The first map i played ricochet on was haven and it was balanced. But then the next map adrift i found out that the blue team had a slight advantage and by slight i mean HUGE advantage. They could run across there hallway, get on a man cannon, and fly straight into your goal. I took them 2 minutes to finish a 15 minute match. I was outraged at the unfairness of the game. With these finding i discover that the blue team always seems to have the advantage over the red team. Is there somebody at 343i thats colorblind and hates red?

Beat Hazard Platform: Xbox 360, The Director's Rating: 9/10 This game let's you play asteroids. On your X-Box. To your own music that's on your X-Box harddrive. That in and of itself is pretty awesome, but get this. The music powers your weapon! That's right! Your weapon is powered by how loud and wild your music is! But wait, that's not all! This game also has an amazing visualization effect on the background. If you've ever imagined playing a retro game with a new spin on it while you were simultaneously watching a music visualization effect (trippy stuff), then this is definitely the game for you. Combat: The only combat in this game is firing at asteroids and spaceships. It's exactly like the arcade game Asteroids. You spin and shoot. You also have power ups that you can collect by defeating enemies that do various things such as power up your weapon. Not only that, but it's two player co-op splitscreen, which is epic. Your weapons and damage are based on the pickups you've collected and the music that's playing. If you decide to listen to a slow-dance song and play this game, you're gonna have a hard time. Rounds: Each round is exactly one song long. How long is that? Depends on the song YOU pick. If it will fit on your harddrive, then you can play it. Each round gets increasingly difficult, and the enemies are for the most parts random. There are asteroids, enemy ships of varying degree of difficulty to kill, and even bosses here and there. Splitscreen puts more enemies per round. Synopsis: This game is a brilliant indie game that's available on XBL Arcade. It plays any music that you have on your harddrive and will have a different visualization every time you play a song. Sometimes the visualizations are distracting while you are trying to get a higher score, but this game is mainly for fun rather than competition. There is a "brag to a friend" option, if you ARE competitive. The Director's Recommendation: I recommend playing it when you get tired of other games. It allows you to take a much needed break from normal games while still keeping you entertained. It's available on XBL Arcade under indie games. My final recommendation is to get some dubstep/techno/electronica onto your HDD and prepare to have your mind blown. If you are photosensitive, then that's literal. If you have a recommendation for a game that I should review, then let me know in the comments (I follow all of my threads ;D). Remember though, if it's a hyped up game then I won't do it. "Lesser Known" is in the title after all. Hope you enjoy your time in the world of games. Wanna see the others?

This forum is for Halo players that appreciate all the time and effort 343i put ingo the Halo Franchise. I personally think that Halo 4 can stand together with all the other Halo Games as great. It delivered a great multiplayer experience, alongside an cinematic campaign and spartan ops. (Although I do miss firefight oh so dearly.) For all you gamers who under estimated 343i abilities, Halo 4 should be a big slap in your slap in your ungrateful face. And for those who still continue to troll 343i, stop the hate, spread the love for Halo 4. No game is perfect, and I think even Bungie knew that.

All credit goes to this guy; give him a like on Facebook!: https://www.facebook.com/LetsFinishTheFight?hc_location=stream War sphinx ( Big looking bird in Halo 5 Teaser Trailer) War sphinxes were midsize Forerunner fighting suits used by the Prometheans. They were powerful war machines that were generally dropped from high orbit, and were capable of sweeping continents and decimating entire cities. The Ur-Didact's twelve war sphinxes, used by his warriors during the Human-Forerunner War, were left on Erde-Tyrene to guard his Cryptum. By the time Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting visited the planet in approximately 100,000 BCE, these suits were considered antiquated and outdated.More advanced versions of the war sphinx continued to be in use during the Forerunner-Flood war,[3] alongside the more streamlined and less ornate Seekers used by Builder Security. Description: The war sphinxes were described as being ten meters high and twenty meters long, with an elongated tail that provided lift and power. From the "tail" rose a large rounded torso with a command cabin perched on top. As was common with Promethean combat constructs, the command cabin was designed to resemble a Forerunner face, with features arranged in an angry or stern expression and two viewports serving as "eyes". They also had limbs, with joints of hard light. Much like Onyx Sentinels, two sphinxes could also merge to create a larger unit, which still retained a similar "face" at the forward surface. War sphinxes were programmed to contain samples of their wearer's mental patterns and personalities before they were killed in battle. These preserved personalities were less complete than Durances, but could still be studied by a commander to gain useful information. The Didact kept the final impressions of his children, who were killed in battle, within their war sphinxes. Crew: Driver (1) Durance: A Durance was a type of Forerunner memory storage device. Upon the the death of a Forerunner, the individual's last memories and mental patterns were stored inside a Durance. The Durance and a bit of plasma from the immolation of the body were then presented to the closest family members of the deceased.

I am sure that with the soon to be coming release of Halo 5, there will be many questions about the forge and what it will contain as to special features. Sure, The dynamic lighting was nice, But I think that the forge could be expanded. So, what are your wishes for Halo 5 Forge? Please, do tell me! As for the forge, I have a few ideas. *Keep Dynamic Lighting *Choose music to play with the map. *Weather Effects *More pieces *Change Time of Day *Add AI to Maps *Create Custom Campaign Missions * Cooler Maps So these are my basic ideas, what are yours?

A new halo project "Halo Bootcamp" was listed on the Korean Game Rating Board and it will be a new Halo game. Nothing much is known about the game other than it will be a third person shooter and it is a PC exclusive, it will not be coming to the 360 or One. This article from gamefront goes into more detail about this new Halo game A listing for “Bootcamp” surfaced on the Korean Game Rating Board today, which is apparently some sort of Halo game. Odd things in that description: Halo 3 is mentioned. Huh? Is this potentially the rumored Halo 3 PC port? Also, this is listed as a PC/online game, not an Xbox One title. Wah? We reached out to Microsoft for some clarity, and a spokesperson provided Game Front with the following statement: “What’s Bootcamp? It is not related to our Xbox One efforts, or the Reclaimer Saga, but rather a project we’re very enthusiastic about and will have more to say about in the near future.” So, it’s not an Xbox One game. Nor is it a part of the “Reclaimer Saga” (which is a fancy title referring to the new Halo trilogy, starting with Halo 4). So what the hell is this thing? It’s clearly a spinoff of some kind. Note that “Bootcamp” could in some way refer to the similarly titled Reed Ruiz novel Halo: Fall of Reach: Boot Camp. And what’s that book about? Here’s the Amazon description: The legend of Master Chief begins! The United Nations Space Command is engaged in a brutal battle against a growing tide of insurrection. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and under the threat of a prolonged war the UNSC initiates the SPARTAN-II Project, a military program seeking to create a squad of super-soldiers. And so a great adventure begins: Once, he was a 6-year-old boy named John. But his superior speed, intelligence and adaptability to the SPARTAN-II training allow him to rise above the rest, starting his journey to become the most legendary warrior the galaxy has ever known! Halo: Fall of Reach – Bootcamp begins the adaptation of Eric Nylund’s novel Halo: The Fall of Reach, based on the international videogame sensation Halo! Your guess is as good as ours at this point, but we’ve at least confirmed A). That Korean Game Rating Board page wasn’t ‘shopped, this is actually a thing, and . it’s not for Xbox One, and C). it’s not a part of the new Halo trilogy. UPDATE: PC gamers hoping Halo Bootcamp is the rumored PC port of Halo 3 may be in for a bit of disappointment. In the NeoGAF thread where this news originally surfaced, Google Translate was used to translate the Korean to English, which appeared to include a clear reference to Halo 3. However, running the mysterious game’s description text through other translation services reveals a different picture. Here’s what Bing Translator has to say: “‘Halo’ as a third-person point of view based on the worldview of the mission is going to be executing an action game of water Minor violence representation (expressed as mere weaponry, attacks and a third-person point-of-blood description) Thus, article 21 of the law on the promotion of the game industry and the provisions of article 9, paragraph 3, classified according to the classification as a ‘ 15 ‘ decision.” There’s obviously a lot of murky English in there, but one thing is pretty clear. The description isn’t referring to Halo 3. Rather, it’s referring to a a third-person Halo game.

So I was playing matchmaking recently on Longbow and I was up against a Warthog and its gunner. So I was like well why don't I try and outrun them right? I try and get into a building, little did I know that the plan was never going to work, so at the very last second when I was about to die, I activated my hologram ability and out of now where my hologram was white, crouched and glided for a few yards, stopped and stood up. I hope 343 checks out this strange glitch that happened to me, not sure if it was a one time thing or anything but I was really bizarre.

As you all know, the Sangheili species are not (yet) playable on Halo 4. 343i and lots of people use the argument "The Multiplayer (War Games) is now canonical to the Campaign", but here are the stuff the are wierd about this: ->The MM is actually a simulator aboard the Infinity ->The simulation is to train Spartan IV's ->The Flood is destroyed (at least not present on Campaign nor SpOps) So. You see what I mean? The humanity has not encountered the Flood at all after the events of Halo 3, and yet we have a Flood-specific gametype. I know that it's for the fun, but think: ->S IV's are probably not going to face Flood ->The Flood is not present at all ->The War Games are supposed to simulate an actual battle ->You get to control the Flood ->S IV's probably don't even know what the Flood are You see where this is going? 343i didn't include playable Sangheili for canonical reasons. If it is supposed to tie up to both SpOps and Campaign, why are the Flood in the WG simulator but Sangheili aren't? S IV's are going to face the Storm faction, a Covenant remain thing. So why not to put Invasion too? You Spartan fans are going to say: "Oh, simple, why would a Spartan, the mighty powerful Spartan with cool armor, would want to see the war as a dinosaur?" And here's my answer: "Why would a Spartan want to see the war as a Flood?" It makes no sense. UNSC would be then training a demonic, inter-galactic parasite to defeat their ranks? Because if an infection happens, the infected spartans would know how to take out other Spartans, so yeah. No sense. It would make way more sense to include Sangheili. Why? ->There actually are Separatist Sangheili that are allied with the humans ->There is no alliance between Humans and the Parasite ->Seeing the war from your enemy's point of view is a good strategy You may say "But there are no Sangheili aboard the Infinity". The humans have the tech to create a frigging huge ship! I think they are more than capable of creating an "A.I" that the players would control. 343i needs to think of a better excuse of such a stupid move. What would you think?

IMO, Complex is the WORST map I have ever played n any Halo game. Does anyone even like this map? First off, lets start with the map balance. Clearly, Complex is a non-symmetrical map. One side of the map is an abandoned mess of useless buildings with no role in the map. The other side is a DMR Sniper resort. The building has 2 floors which are both extremely camp-able On the top, you have an open roof that overlooks the entire map! Great for DMRs right? Oh, and did I mention that there is little to no cover in this map? Ghosts: This map has too Ghosts on it. With the cover that isn't in this map, the people in the Ghost can easily mow people down as they run along, over and over and over. Spawns: The spawns on this map are horrid. Once again, with no cover on the map, you are constantly spawning in the open. I remember I got spawn-killed four times from the roof. When you finally get the relief of spawning elsewhere, The enemy's Ghost will be happy to clean you up. This map has no role in competitive gameplay, tell me your opinion on the map.
