You got it right, the gametype was Firefight Versus which was 2v2, Spartans vs Elites + Covenant AI.

Halo 5: Guardians |OT5| Is HaloGAF irrelevant now?

I did, they might still be rolling out.
I think you just have to play MCC or halo 5.
Yeah that mode suffered from similar issues as Generator Defense iirc. Only worse. Complete lagfest a good amount of the time and the Spartans had apparently been taking their vitamins because they got BUFFED.
Never understood why Elites always started with the shittiest weapons instead of the needle rifle.

PC version is great, can't wait for the server browser though, just had a game then and the host picked Eden swat... With 16 fucking players!!!! Lol!
Most were level 1 so I shat on the lot of them
Is kbam the way to go or not?
I think halo 5 suits controllers more.

Hosted games all night. Damn, it feels so good to play Halo on PC again.

Thanks Waffles, I'll give it a shot. Probably should consider getting one of those Elite controllers too lol

Got to Diamond six, let me finish getting to Onyx! Three games later I’m Diamond five! Hmm that’s not so bad I can come back. Next game we are up like 42-30 and out of nowhere I get disconnected from the server (my internet was fine, big surprise there.) Now I’m Diamond four because I “quit.” Next game I go against a premade that has a Champion 6…
Now, I'm Diamond three. This game is so disheartening. It doesn't matter how much I play and try to get better, I just constantly get shit on.
Ok, I'm Diamond five, I'll stop bitching for now.

this is so much fun. despite my qualms with Halo 5 itself, using forge on PC and customs makes me not give a crap right now.
Welp. That was a fun night. I think my biggest issue was the aim acceleration. Thanks again Waffles because setting those deadzones to 0 was great. Ended up taking everything up a notch though.
Sesitivity: 7
Aim Accel: 5
Dead Zones: 0
Can't wait to play again.

That shit free for people who bought the game on the One? I might have to give it a look.

Molten is a great map.

Molten is pretty, I'll give it that. However, it doesn't really play well and the spawns are fucked.

How do you view your win/loss percentage by map?

I used to think Rig was bad. Lol. Almost every game of Molten I've played has been a sweat fest, ranked teams huddling in two rooms watching all angles. Total shit for Slayer. Can't see it working for strongholds either.

Lol in what way? It surpasses Overgrowth and Riptide in its awfulness... That is an impressive feat.
I can't imagine it works well with any gametype... Infection maybe?...
This is my take too. It's a lot of fun to play on Strongholds, I've never played anything else on it.
Yeah, that was also terrible. Don't like it if maps are only 1 color basically. Needs more color coded areas. Mercy already has those colored details, but they should have embraced them more.
Feel like 343i is sometimes focusing on the wrong things. Maps should not only look pretty, but they should also look functional and not too busy. Trying to find that balance is key.

So Halo 5 PC is totally a secret beta for future Halo games on PC right?

Yes.
You should fully expect Halo 6 to be on PC. I hope it can #makehalogreatagain

Is there a halogaf club setup yet? I just got the update last night and didnt get to check it out at all yet.
Lol u noobs need to get more better at Molten. LOL!
I have no problem with the spawns. Doesn't feel like anyone has an advantage if they hold down a specific area.
The only map with bad spawns I've encountered is that new forge one I played yesteday. I think it's new and not White Cell.

I guess there isnt a way to see your win/loss percentage with maps ...
..."Getting good" doesn't change the fact that the map is horrible. The best players in the world also happen to agree... And for the same reasons.
It's doodoo
Only had time last night to run around mercy alone, but holy wow is it stunning! This is far and away the prettiest map, it's like 343 is finding their stride with the engine and what it's capable of. Also, love the small changes to sight lines and all the jumps. Getting around the map quickly will be really easy.
I like Molten on doubles, not so much 4v4.

There are a couple more ways to get from the bottom to mid-top now, love the layout.

Riptide is worse.
And from the top wings back to bottom lifts, or to the giant ramp and around back to top mid or open big ramp
(Apologies, I don't know the callouts)

Probably competitively, but fun wise I put overgrowth way at the bottom
See overgrowth is a bad map, but it played much better in stronghold since it brings the action to the more viable portions of the map.
But molten doesn't have any good areas at all. the wierd angles and cramped hallways just incentivize crouching in corners.
Get good is a perfectly acceptable response to LOL.
I enjoy the map and have fun playing with it. Outside poor performance, haven't had a compliant.

The entire game has awful spawns, your talking about Halo 5 right?
I said lol because I legit thought there was a chance you were joking.
I think 'different strokes for different folks' will mean that each map is liked by someone. But I never thought I'd see someone claim the Molten is "great" when it's been pretty much panned by everyone I've come in contact with.
Dear 343,
If you're going to rob me of my Diamond or Onyx by giving me shit games to start and end my ranking process (including the servers shitting out and not recording two wins and also having quitters vs full teams, leading to multiple 1v4 situations) please have the common decency to match me with Platinums afterwards instead of taunting me with Diamond and Onyx opponents.
Sincerely,
TCKaos
