Yea but you both know you want to give in. You get Fall of Reach too. It's so worth it. Just give in.

Digital Deluxe, here I come.

I wonder if monday morning is some pro player footage that they have murmured about.

Perhaps strongholds, hence the "strength" comment. lol

EDIT: Lol, murmured, not murdered

 

[QuantumSquid]

I hope the supply for the skin is actually limited so it's not just the AR skin that everyone has.

It's not like it won't be unlockable from opening REQ packs either, so I see no issue with making the codes genuinely limited.

 

[Grazzt]

This was my unlock:

Nice Battle Rifle btw.

Got the same thing.

"Spartans never die. But equipment can be retired."
*Tears*

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Maybe on Monday they'll finally talk about all the gamety-HAHAHAHHA Oct 26 midnight when the playlists go live, that's when you find out half the classic gametypes didn't make the cut

Bitch, you know what I want, I wanna talk to Sampson fly me to the moon like that bitch Alice Kramden!

You're right, it's probably worth it, I was gonna pay 25 for the REQs anyway.

I just want Richochet and KotH back and I'll be happy.

 

[Bessy67]

So I'm seriously considering switching my preorder from the limited edition at Best Buy to the digital deluxe version. Are there any good deals on it? I'm only paying ~$70 at Best Buy for the physical copy because of GCU and a $10 reward certificate...

I kinda doubt alot of gametypes will be in, but damn dude, no reason to be so cynical

Spoiler

Unless you're right in which case you can call all the optimistic people dumbasses

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Probably some new stuff in here.

Just waiting for confirmation of one flag and one bomb being dropped.

 

[Outrun]

Yeah, like it could play for the NBA Forerunner team

I know you're not Proven Deadly, but we'll reveal the initial gametypes a fair old while before launch and it will be a focused set, for sure. Further gametypes will continue to roll into rotation as the weeks progress. This has nothing to do with development schedule, and everything to do with sensible sustain.

It will be impossible to make everyone happy, all of the time, obviously. But eventually most people will crack at least one wan, bitter smile.

 

[Zeta Oni]

Will there be a place to possibly find people on GAF to run through the campaign with launch night?

I've been thinking about trying something different this Halo instead of gunning through the campaign on legendary then hopping straight into the multiplayer like normal.

Is Infection still a thing in Custom Games? Or does Halo 5 have the "Flood mode" like Halo 4 did, where you don't play as green spartans with swords, but rather as Flood dudes with spike arms?

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

The green peen leads him to his target, the truth lies therein.

 

[Its Quite Toasty]

Wut

He's got jokes

That includes the helmet right?

 

[Stinkles]

And so it begins. I earned my first REQ pack and before I even get to open it I already want more. I'm addicted without even getting a taste. Dammit.

Lol did the same with astros

 

[watership]

Tried to get to that Halo 5 experience site and all my browsers just sit at 0 percent. Is this because I'm Canadian and nice?

I got it, but that's one buggy site.

 

[ryan299]

So the experience site gets you a weapon skin?


Watched all 10 and didn't get anything. Just Preorder or replay.

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Probably some new stuff in here.


http://experience-halo-5-guardians.xbox.com/experience.html

It didn't give me a code . Just says:

LAUNCH YOURSELF INTO HALO 5: GUARDIANS AND
EXPERIENCE THE ULTIMATE BATTLE OF BELIEFS.
WHO’S THE TRAITOR? WHO’S THE SAVIOR?
PLAY AND DECIDE.

And then asks me to replay.

Edit: Replayed all the videos again and never gave me a code... again.

 

[watership]

This was my unlock:

Nice Battle Rifle btw.

Now i know the site is buggy. How did you get an unlock? There is nothing after watching all the videos that I can see.

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Third time I went through the all of the videos, this time going through Locke's first then Master Chief. Still nothing...

Edit: Just tried it on the Edge browser as well, nothing. It appears that decided to have a cut-off point or something.

 

[The Sum of Zero]

Got the code when I watched all 10 videos. This was roughly 45 minutes ago, though.

Could it be possible that there were a limited number of codes?

EDIT: I used Firefox.

They have been really sneaky thus far....

 

[GreyWind]

This wait is killing me. I need it now!

I alerted them. What browser?

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

I alerted them. What browser?

Google Chrome and Edge.

 

[Stinkles]

Google Chrome and Edge.

Edge worked for me. I'll keep checking.

 

[Bsigg12]

Google Chrome and Edge.

I tried on these as well with no REQ pack given.

 

[DanteThePyro]

I alerted them. What browser?

Firefox and Chrome were both a no go for me.

 

[aHebrewMenagerie]

Edge worked for me. I'll keep checking.

Edge didn't spit out a code for me either.

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Edge worked for me. I'll keep checking.

This is all I am seeing (and I am signed into Xbox Live as well):

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Edge gave me a code.

 

[aHebrewMenagerie]

This is all I am seeing (and I am signed into Xbox Live as well):

+1

 

[Grisby]

Firefight reveal incoming.

Spoiler

plz 343

If only.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

I alerted them. What browser?

No code from Firefox either, just 'preorder' and 'replay'.

 

[draughn101]

I ran safari on IPhone and no code. Just preorder and replay. Pretty cool tho.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Digital Deluxe, here I come.

Bitch, you know what I want, I wanna talk to Sampson fly me to the moon like that bitch Alice Kramden!

You're right, it's probably worth it, I was gonna pay 25 for the REQs anyway.

Yes yes give into the dark side....errrr....I mean the Digital Deluxe edition. muahahahahahahahahahaha

0% no matter how long I wait.

No more hype! I can't take it!

 

[xxANTIMONITORxx]

0% no matter how long I wait.

Me too. If I reload the page a couple times it will play the same Locke and Chief speaking promo, but otherwise it just says 0%

 

[BraXzy]

I can't decide whether to go digital or physical for this. On the one hand I can save a few pennies getting a boxed copy. On the other, being able to say Xbox go to Halo 5 at any point would be pretty sweet.

Then again, most of my games are digital already so I could keep the disc in permanently I suppose.

If my physical copy turns up early, I wonder if you can go online or if servers won't launch till midnight of launch.
