The first Chief lvl the one where you blow through the window at the start?
Yeah, the Spartan fight was way to slow, enhanced reflexes, speed and power armour, and they're fighting as if underwater.

Yeah, that one
They dropped the ball on the Spartan fight, especially after the craziness of the intro cinematic. Certainly not Kung Fu, but some kind of roided version of Jason Bourne
I will give them credit for the moment when Locke cracks his visor, though!

The campaign had its moments for sure. Missions on Sanghelios were amazing. The final mission where Osiris finds the "zoo" of Covenant and Prometheans and where Cortana quips about each Osiris member. And especially toward the end with Chief confronting Cortana about what she'd done. Great scenes without a doubt. But the story as a whole didn't live up to the pre release hype. Chief branded as a traitor in trailera was quite a stretch compared to what he actually does, and that was disobey a command to find Cortana. Trailers made it sound like he turned on humanity.

Same here, loved that mission.
God f***ing dammit. The last skull I need is on Mission 3. Has to be on Legendary. Towards the end of the level. Have to take out a Phaeton way up in the sky for the skull to appear. After what felt like 3000 attempts, I finally got it. I moved to the next area and cleared it out. I look up where the skull is and I find out I have to backtrack to earlier in the level. Only for some stupid ass reason, when I try to go back, I can't. The game won't allow me to go back or else I'll get "Return to the Battlefield" message and die if I go too far. Now Im forced to start all over. f*** this game. All that Legendary bulls*** for nothing.
There is something wrong with breakout or the game itself. I have been noticing some crazy lag or glitches how players moving by skipping when trying to hit them.
Yeah there has been some crazy s*** going on in Breakout lately. I don't know if it's lag or people glitching, but it's like you said, some people on opposing teams are just blinking around. I've been killed a bunch by them and I've killed them a bunch too. When I get the kill their body always ends up a good distance away from the kill area.
There's going to be a Halo 3 playlist at some point this year, with all the Halo 5 s*** stripped away, on Forge remakes of Halo 3 maps.
Over 1000 hours later, the gameplay is still amazing...except for the online performance. When I get clean games, nothing on consoles is more fun. 343's netcoders and matchmaking are still not good though. The handful of people on my friends list that are from my general region experience the same thing. 343 has to figure this out by Halo 6. I think the reason I haven't run into anyone from Michigan in months despite all the randoms I play with is they all quit due to performance.
I can't remember the last time I had issues.IDK I think your the only one with these crappy online performance issues in Halo
Yeah, I've been in home renovation mode for a while, then giving the PS4 some love when I could. I actually just sold that house for nearly 40 grand profit! Imma be out til the end of this month when I can move into the new house I'm building.I can't remember the last time you played with us!
Well, I did do the reno on my last house, but I'm having the new one built, lol. I did design the whole thing myself, though (ok, the wife had SOME input
) we designed the floor plan, and I did a full 3d mock up in Blender before we started.I even modeled the light fixtures and such to see how they would look before buying. All to scale, of course. I probably go to the building site once a day to make sure they don't miss anything, lol.
Halo 5 Update Coming Today, Adds Xbox One X Support And Makes A Big BR Change
https://www.gamespot.com/articles/halo-5-update-coming-today-adds-xbox-one-x-support/1100-6454578/
Halo 5: Guardians might be more than two years old now, but Microsoft and developer 343 Industries are not finished yet supporting the Xbox Onegame. A big new update is coming out today, November 2, adding Xbox One X support, new game modes, and making significant and potentially controversial changes to weapon balance.
The update adds 4K UHD support on Xbox One X, though that won't matter much to the general population as the Xbox One X doesn't release until November 7. 343 says the game will look "better than ever" on Xbox One X thanks to the console's beefed-up horsepower. As for the new game modes, Oddball and Oddball FFA (with new medals, too) are now in the hopper. They were in the game earlier, but were later removed.
Halo 5's new update also adds new announcer audio and the Oddball skull object for use in the game's Forge mode. Also coming to Halo 5 with this update is a local server app for Windows 10 PC, which allows players to host and play "low-latency" multiplayer matches. This is a cool new feature that you might use for a local Halo party.
In terms of n ew content, the Halo 5 update adds weapon skins for Halo Championship Series teams such as Str8 Rippin, Splyce, and Luminosity, while weapon skins for HCS regions including the United States, Canada, UK, Mexico, and Australia are coming soon.
Another major area of focus for this Halo 5 update is on weapon tuning. 14 items have been updated across all modes, including mainstays like the Battle Rifle and Assault Rifle. For the Battle Rifle, 343 thought the weapon was too effective at every range, and it wanted to tweak it so that it is best at mid-range but also still useful close up when used effectively. Now, the Battle Rifle's rate of fire/rounds-per-second is cut down by around 50 percent, so that's a pretty significant change, and one that not everyone may agree with or enjoy. 343 acknowledged this in a blog post. The BR's damage level, however, was not changed at all with this update. You can see a full rundown of all the major weapon balance changes here in this ridiculously in-depth blog post.
The new Halo 5 update also tweaks the Assault mode so that there explosion damage when you score. Additionally, the ability to double thrust as a ball-carrier is removed. There are Forge changes as well, including the Relic sword being added to the weapon palette. Additionally, there are entries for the Gunfighter Flagnum now.
Go to 343's blog post here to see a full rundown of the general changes, while this post covers all the weapon balance changes.
In other Halo news, Halo Wars 2 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection are getting updates for Xbox One X.

It is crazy to think that games were 8gb or less on the Xbox 360 last gen. Sure there were a couple games on more than one disk, but the vast majority were that small. And now 100gb this gen is the norm.
Yeah, that's a lot of data. (nintendo 64 goldeneye 007 game size was 12 MB and that was a great game back then)
IDK I think your the only one with these crappy online performance issues in Halo
After collecting data and doing research online, I found it depends on a combo of isp and location. If your isp is under Time Warner (Comcast) and they have an old setup, it’s not real compatible with Halo 5’s netcode. Most people with my issue quit Halo long ago because there’s no fix outside of convincing Comcast to upgrade in my area so that I can have better Halo 5 games. Unfortunately they aren’t willing to do it. I’ve called and tried. Lol
No issues with other online games though. Titanfall 2 is silky smooth. Wish I could like it better.
Anyone here unlocked everything? I been playing this game for 2 years (120 hours wz, 30 hours arena) and im still at 80%
I’ve played over 1200 hours. Mostly Team Deathmatch. I’ve barely unlocked anything but I do have over 5 million REQ points.
