So yeah, this game is fucking amazing.

Small issues aside of course. Definitely needs some small tweaking. Gonna be doing a big write up after this and the big beta.

Also, just went 20-2. Unlocked an air assault chest piece hmmm (won't be switching from my helioskrill doe).

Also, go to your roster, click someone in a game and spectate them. It's amazing. Truly amazing.

I'd like to thank Tashi and Domino for the fan service when they reccomended a Topgun medal during testing

I'll bet Quinn put that in. He loves Top Gun.

 

[Reagan's BR]

Anyone have an extra code?

Newest update broke Destiny for me and MCC doesn't always work right when I try to play.

Reposting so this doesn't get buried. Destiny won't boot after last update. Would like to use this console that I paid for.

 

[Digital Limit]

What's Top Gun?

 

[User 73706]

That killcam music is going to get old quick.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

Streaming some Halo 5 with some friends. Check it.

 

[darthbob]

So, uh, Frank. Y'all got anymore of them H5G Beta Codes?

 

[DJ Gunner]

I seriously just got shit on the worse in my entire Halo career the last match

Did the Red Team BroDudes high five each other after the match for maximum dude bro brodudeness? That's my favorite part

These Spartans literally sound like OGKEGSTER22.

H5G has the best shields down / shield recharge FX in the franchise, though.

 

[KidA Seven]

Ogre 2's about to stream some beta. CLG vs EG action. Bravo and Goldenboy will spectate and commentate

yup

I don't like what the artists are doing with the maps.

There's still that 343 adored haze everywhere, everything looks muddied, hard to see stuff. Maybe the final game being upped in res will help but the lighting is still super hazy.

Halo 3 Heretic on MCC looks a lot better than Truth.

The haze exists due to the glowing lit areas throughout the map. Regret, during daytime, removes the haze giving it good variety, IMO. Same as Empire at night.

 

[Deception]

Download should be done in 10 mins if anyone wants to add me and play.

It's gonna be a long wait after the beta ends...

Yeah it is absolutely way to foggy and blurred... Nothing stands out... the maps are just way to busy.

Can't say much to the gameplay since I really only played a few matches.

 

[darthbob]

Only 8 days.

 

[Granadier]

44%

 

[Fahzgoolin]

Only 8 days.

No until the game releases lol

 

[Caja 117]

Only 8 days.

and after the second Beta ends? thats going to be the real long wait.

 

[darthbob]

No until the game releases lol

Oh. Well, yeah. That's gonna be quite the wait. :'(

So how do I become a preview member? I was really hoping this was a day one purchaser sort of thing (((

You need to be invited.

Edit: but I've watched so many "Searching" screens. Haven't I done enough to earn one?

 

[TTUVAPOR]

This is going to be moderated/toned down a bit. It's supposed to be "funny" but we heard loads of complaints already.#realbeta

I think Shadowrun had a fine balance of the player voices and callouts.

 

[User 73706]

Spartan IVs don't deploy as platoons or companies, they deploy as fraternities.

 

[Starkster]

I cleaned up, compressed and labeled the menu tracks that play in the beta. First time uploading something on Mega too. Happy listening!

 

[Fracas]

Holy shit the pistol is so fucking broken

 

[dwells]

Damn, is it too late to find out if you're on the naughty list? I'm fairly salty, but I think I do so without being a dick most of the time, so I feel like it go either way.

Obligatory code begging again, by the way.

 

[User 73706]

So far Halo 5's coming across as very... 50/50. I hate just as much about it as I love.

 

[TheOddOne]

I think parties break this Alpha. That is why I didn't join everybody's parties, so sorry about that.

AR needs nerf, man.

 

[TTUVAPOR]

Go into your twitch account and delete the association with your Xbox gamertag (http://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections), then re-associate it. Force-quit the Twitch app on your Xbone and try again.

That's fixed it for me before.

It doesn't even show its a connection in my connections.

How broken is broken?





Are we talking CE levels here?

Spoiler

 

[Tawpgun]

Holy shit the pistol is so fucking broken

Nah its fine imo. Isnt useful at long range, but can go toe to toe with AR in close. Less auto aim on it.

 

[Fuchsdh]

I feel like I'm dying incredibly too fast.

This might have to do with the weapon strengths, but I also think it has to do with the complete removal of familiar shield/health sounds. The new ones just sound like noise.

 

[AlStrong]

Will there be different personalities for the voices? Female Spartans?

Don't suppose you'd consider recording different voices for the announcer (client-side choice) as well.

 

[Fracas]

I'm telling you man, spam that shit and it beats everything in med/close range. Yeah it's not great farther out but it's absurdly good otherwise

 

[Nowise10]

I'm loving the hell out of the magnum. Feels so nice to shoot, and is incredibly accurate.

Well at least it's not a boltshot.

Sounds like the awesome Reach beta pistol... man that was awesome. The final version is damn lame.

maybe you're just bad

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Pls dont change the pistol.

 

[jem0208]

I'm getting the feeling that quite a few of the complaints I have seen is because of this.

Someone was complaining about how they were quite often the first to shoot someone but then they usually died.

It's about ethics in game journalism.

I heard female spartans calling out in PriznEugeigaosns stream

No teabag physics in Halo 5?

 

[ViewtifulJC]

there's two female spartan voices on yourexwife's stream

 

[Fracas]

[CliQ]

EDIT - Nevermind found it.
