>>
>>154741925
>Why did people hate this remake?
1. It uses the Gearbox port, which has some shoddy aiming and hit detection as well as some graphical bugs.
2. The anniversary graphics are, outside of the snowy levels, pretty bad. It looks like chunky cheese halo. The original art design looks better.
3. Models are ripped straight out of Reach because laziness
4. This applies only to the Xbox 360 version, but the multiplayer is just modified Reach on 6 maps.
>>
>>154742221
5. The anniversary graphics do not line up with the actual level terrain. In some cases it's a pretty big difference

Personally, i thought they could have done a bit more with it. Like include some of the cut stuff from the original or add a new mission or something.

Instead we got Halo CE on 360 with reach graphics.

They also ruined the soundtrack.
While the original was a bit too synthesized in a lot of tracks, they put minimal effort into recreating the tracks and as a result they are atmospheric ally less pleasing for the most part.

Halo 2 Anniversary has the opposite problem. They upped the intensity of the tracks way too much in intensity and as a result most of them sound way too "loud". What was once nice oohing and ahing at times is almost screaming now.
They also didn't do a great job replacing the Breaking Benjamin/Incubus/Hoobstank tracks.

It worked much better with the original sneaking feel of the level. The whole thing was dark.
The outside area for the same reason makes no sense. It makes no reason for me to be able to sneak past covies because everything is bright as fuck.

>aliens prefer exact same light levels as humans

Nobody in this thread has said that but nice projecting I guess.

Also 343 didn't do the anniversary graphics but I guess I can't expect an appologist to do much research.

>>154743815
>being this triggered by complaints about 343
Given their track record, I don't know why you people even exist if you're not shills.
Or, I guess, you just generally enjoy the new games? If that's the case then ok, you're entitled to your opinion, but don't call people out for having a different one, especially when they far and away outnumber you.

Be that as it may, all other games inside covie ships have it being super dark anyway.
High Charity, the Corvette from Reach, even the shadow of intent.

When Saber went ahead and made the T&R bright as the sun, they clearly had not been properly informed by 343.

These people really don't enjoy the 343 games that much. What it is is that they're so obsessed with being contrary an hipsters that have a high opinion that they will always lash out against popular opinion.

THE /HG/TAGE: BUNGIE EDITION is currently accepting clips from now until September 30th. If anyone has a capture card and wants to help other anons get their Halo 3 clips in then post in the thread or send me a message on waypoint so we can set it up. My capture card is working but my laptop is having issues during the recording. The clips that are submitted must be from the following games.

>Halo: Combat Evolved/Anniversary/SPV3
>Halo 2/Anniversary/Vista
>Halo 3
>Halo 3: ODST/Firefight
>Halo Wars
>Halo: Reach
>Halo: The Master Chief Collection (excluding Halo 4/Spartan Ops)
Use the past community’tages as a reference on what to submit. I’ll be looking for casual and competitive clips in the multiplayer and campaign. Glitches and lag clips are acceptable as well, the more humorous, the better. To submit a clip, either post the xboxdvr/thehostyouuse link in the thread or send it as a message to "Sweaty Towels" on Halo waypoint.

Granted, you will probably only live until you are 30, since you are a fat weeb that does nothing but try too hard to be funny on a japanese anime imageboard. I can't stand scum like you. I just wish gook moot would just make it easier to ban kids that are trying to hard like yourself. Hell, you probably are just projecting and are underage yourself. I will tell ya what. I will forget you said that, and we can move on. But remember, you talk shit about millennials, yet they will be the ones who take care of you.

Do you seriously not accumulate massive amounts of just about everything simply by playing and buying with the points you get?

I mean, even in Firefight you can generally get by with nothing bigger than a Ghost until the final round, depending on what the last boss is. Hell, I've placed at least in the top 3 a few times even when the REQ system was on the fritz and I was stuck with AR and Pistol stars.

Then, I have enough REQs from everyday playthrough that I would have to spam and waste REQs like a moron before I go wanting.

Basically >>154762338

The only thing I really have to watch out for are Wasps. They run out right quick and it generally takes a while to replenish.
>>
>>154762338
So you only use common/uncommon reqs and maybe a rare one every so often?
It's literally impossible to replenish any of higher rarity reqs if you use them at all frequently.
I've seen like <10 whispering truths the entire time I've played the game. Hannibal shit is like 1 every 50 gold packs. Wasps you have to be stingy with as well.

>>154762541
You only see it as a "waste" because they're so rare. If they were common it wouldn't be a waste.
>>
>>154762541
I usually hover around 10 or so wasps, but there's no point to using more than one a match since you get to banshees relatively quickly. The only map I've seen them be really good on is that snow map in WZ.
>>
>>154762705
>it's literally impossible
I have around 1,300,000 REQ points. I can buy whatever I need whenever, and every gold gives me back 6k.
>>
>>154762717

Yeah, I generally see them on that or that one Assault map (Prospect, I think? The really gray, industrial-looking one).

Mostly I just use it for FF, though. I find it too fragile for PvP Warzone.

>>154762705

>It's literally impossible to replenish any of higher rarity reqs if you use them at all frequently.

I think the point is that you *don't* use them frequently. And anyway Legendary stuff can be fun to use but there are alot of common, uncommon, or just rare stuff that gets the job done just as well.
>>
>>154763089
It's nice to throw them out if you get to the REQ level first, since they can't really do anything about a swarm of Wasps above their spawn.
>>
>>154762907
So 2-3 Hannibel vehicles? Maybe a 1-3 whispering truth's?
How many do you have of those and how many have you used?
>>154763089
>I think the point is that you *don't* use them frequently.
That's kind of shit since it's a significant chunk of the content and they would be neat to play with assuming it wasn't once a month. Why should I be excited about some new legendary vehicle if I'll only get to use a couple times and half the time some fag will board me while I exit the garage? At least they're finally in forge.
>>

Well I can't disagree. I just wish Fiesta was permanent; I hardly left that playlist.
>>
>>154762907
How did it take to save up that much and why save it?
Wouldn't you want to buy packs and use the rarer stuff more?
>>
>>154763305
I don't know about you, but I got a bunch of whispered Truths from the free REQ packs they give out. Plus, you can usually only use 1-2 Hannibals a game, since they have such a high REQ level.

The rarer stuff costs more REQ energy, you actually CAN'T use them as often as lower REQs. The reason I have so much is because I finished the grind.and it took a long time for me to run out of the stuff I already had, so now I'm just in a loop of "buy REQ pack > get points back > buy REQ pack > get points back > play a few matches" and then rinse and repeat.

The frequency of being able to use them far outweighs the frequency you earn. Wza is a bit closer but still not even.

10 gold packs is around 17 games of wza, using 1-2 per match so the 10 gold packs have to replenish 17-34 higher rarity reqs. Not possible.

I have 1mil points, and each pack gives back 6k, plus if you finish your REQ grind your points build up very quickly.
>>
>>154765960
>I have 1mil points
I know, but you had to have stopped buying packs at some point to save those up.
Your req nest egg has no bearing on sustainability of using the high rarity reqs every game.
If you actually used 1-2 of the higher rarity reqs every single game you'd run out eventually.

>>
>>154766141
Except I didn't. The packs give you back more than half the cost, so you can build up points a lot easier while still buying packs. I never sold my REQs to finish the grind faster, so I built up a lot from just playing the gam.
>>
>>154766363
>Except I didn't. The packs give you back more than half the cost, so you can build up points a lot easier while still buying packs.
The net cost of a gold pack is negative, you can't build up points while buying packs.
How can you deny that you saved up reqs when you have one million you could be using to buy packs right now?
You literally cannot use the higher rarity reqs every game without eventually running out of them. I assume you exaggerated how often you use them?
>>
>>154766363

No they don't. Selling every item in a gold back only gives around 1500-2000 points

Yeah, typically in Firefight it goes something like:

>Use standard weapons the first round or two
>Buy a Ghost or something on the second or third round
>Use that to coast through the next few rounds
>Preferably last until the last round or two before it's too damaged or I die

Also, at least one Endgame a match since it fucks cores. Sometimes a Pool of Radiance for the same reason. Plus Grinder and Binary since they're fun as fuck to use.

Specious, I'm pretty sure Lt. Wasp has bought reqs before and he would likely mop the floor with you.

So you agree that req weapons provide an advantage but it's fine because you can theoretically kill him and take the superior weapon for yourself?

But it's objectively true.
Take two duplicate teams and match them against each other for one thousand games.
Allow one team to buy reqs while the other has to earn them, the buy team will have more wins. How can you deny this?

The only way somebody WON'T have the REQs to beat somebody who bought them is if they literally just started playing the game. You can't just say "oh this duplicate team would totally win if they BOUGHT the REQs!" because there's no proof that that's how it would go. Hell, the earn team would just get better with the loadout weapons and would start sniping them with BRs. There's also no guarantee the buy team would get good REQs.
>>
>>154776546
How can you know the result of an hypothetical scenario? At the end of the day any decently skilled and organized team will beat any team using REQs. Also you make it sound like one team can keep cashing in high tier REQs every time they spawn when in reality, it only happens around 2 times in a full match.

Because the teams are identical except one has access to more reqs more often.
Plenty of reqs are objectively superior to their base versions. Taking these together I conclude the buy team will win more on average.

It's literally impossible for the non-buy team to have the advantage since their reqs are subset of buy team's.

Both teams start the same. They will have an inherently different experience as they continue to match. One team gets better with stock weapons, the others have to rely on getting good with weapons they have no guarantee of ever seeing again. They earn team also gets these REQs too, and don't have to RELY on them. Your entire scenario falls apart the longer it goes on.

In this imaginary scenario i can see the non-buyer team spawning 2-3 as many times with lower level REQs than the rich team spawning with high tier REQs only. That's a way bigger advantage if you consider high tier REQs have very limited ammo and high cooldown.

If that was an advantage the buy team would do it.
It's like identical chess players playing each other except one has more moves. The buy team has a large move-space if an optimal strategy is available to the non-buying team the buy team can copy it.
>>
>>154777585

They can't be equally skilled unless they do the EXACT same thing against each other. The skill level changes as it goes on, since they can't possibly have the same experience if one supposedly gets access to, and uses, REQs more.

It wasn't possible to finish the grind at 80 even at launch when the pool was smaller. Which means you paid money.

Anon, you might be retarded. They don't magically significantly improve with AR use if they suddenly are stuck with it for one match. They're just as good as the other team, who has silenced ARs with extended mag magnums.
>>
>>154777680

And yet we still have people in the 130s who don't have many points and are still buying stuff.

>>154777869
That's half a year after launch, and is only 20 unlocks from the 10 gold packs, assuming you even got all 10. So no, nobody completed their grind at 80 without paying.

Sure if the optimal strategy doesn't require reqs or only common reqs.
This is ludicrous though given how many req items are flat stat boosts and how strong the really rare ones are.

No I was explaining to anon how the non-buy team literally cannot have an advantage by definition of the scenario.

Many people who don't buy in /hg/ don't have the H2BR yet. Assuming we're going even lower so that they only really have common REQs, they wouldn't even have more than a few of the crappier ARs and maybe the regular BR. No extended mags or anything. And this is assuming that anon's scenario isn't just "paid REQs vs no REQs at all."

No, because they're equal skill. How can they be equal skill if one of them is better with loadout weapons than the other?

They CAN'T stay the same. They have to be different, because one team can use their super-duper REQs, the other team can't. That guarantees one team would be different. But you can't admit they can be different, because then your rock-solid delusion of an argument falls apart.

>one team can do things the other can't
They can only be the same if they do the SAME things. The buy team then has to use the SAME REQs as the earn team to be the same. Plus, the original argument was "one team can buy the other has to earn" hence the BUY and EARN teams.

Your argument is that over the course of the 1k games the non-buying team will become experienced with their loadouts and common reqs etc and that will allow them to win correct?
Why are you accounting for this skill gain in the non-buying team but not the buying team?
By the same token the buying team will become very good at using all the req weapons and vehicles. Why does the non-buying team gain more skill?

Just having the control group doesn't make an experiment. If we want to make it an experiment, have the buy team and the earn team. Then have the buy team not allowed to use REQs and match them against the earn team. Then have both allowed to use the same amount and kind of REQs.

It's not my fault you're too retarded to understand basic game theory.
The strategies available to the non-buying team is a strict subset of those available to the buying-team. Assuming optimal play the non-buying team literally cannot have an advantage, it is I M P O S S I B L E.

Nobody claimed the buying and non-buying teams were identical in every respect, they clearly aren't because one has more reqs. It would also be pointless hypothetical because perfectly identical teams would win and lose equally by definition.

The point of the thought experiment is that holding all things equal with the exception of req supply the team with the higher req supply will have an advantage.
The only way they couldn't is if neither had an advantage.
Are you honestly claiming that higher req supply does not confer an advantage holding all else equal?

Kilo-5 is... well I'd skip the rest.

Forerunner Saga is pretty good, I've heard the guy who wrote it is a very prominent sci-fi writer and it shows. Some people don't like the additions to lore but I figure then you could read it as just its own thing, which is just as well.

Don't get triggered, m8, I'm just making an observation.

It's fine to not like something but it just seems the people who have lots of bones to pick are more prone to retarded statements and logical fallacies. I mean, nobody was defending the REQ system; I don't think anyone ever has. The debate is always whether it's pay2win, and I'm fairly certain all but a very very select few don't want a better system. But the automatic go-to is "People are defending REQs omg" in a transparent attempt to discredit or end the argument in ones favor.

Similar inanities arise when a positive opinion of anything related to the 343 games is voiced, or when a negative opinion of Bungie games are voiced.

What is the difference between fun and good? Aside from the obvious quality thing, I want to measure this as a subjective experience from you. The casualization made it less challenging overall, true, but it also allowed for players to execute tactics that would, in a highly competitive multiplayer game like Halo 2 or 3, would be shot down immediately. The problem with a multiplayer game with a very competitive scene is that there will always be a select few strategies used because they are simply the best strategies to assure victory. A more causalized game like Reach allows for players to be creative in how they play multiplayer because they have a lot more leeway in which to experiment and dick around in, which (at least to me) is more enjoyable with a rigid doctrine of techniques like in the older multiplayers.

Jetpack fucked with map balance, so it wasn't "good" but it was "fun." It's also not inherently a bad thing, but the maps weren't designed for it so it can't be considered a "good" thing to have. When I play a game I want it to be balanced.

The Japanese market isn't very helpful, considering there would be a market for real child pornography if it was legal. The court acknowledged real cp markets in their justification of ruling cp unprotected speech.
>Also it's not western in origin, so it's in the interest of international law.
This is just silly. Real cp was legal in japan not too long ago, doesn't mean I could have Japanese cp in my American home.

I mean 1v1 is going to be fairly different than playing a team match. Especially if one player is a fag and starts camping or crouch walking everywhere.
It would be a good enough measure of gun skill though, especially if you played enough matches.
I don't think one would be enough, since most of the "good" /hg/ anons are relatively close skill wise.
>>
>>154799842
1st, let me say that he should definitely accept the 1v1 and stop making excuses.

That being said, just because someone is better at 1v1 doesn't mean they're a better overall player.

>>154830417

That was more a handwave to explain why he didn't have indefinite Active Camo. The idea that the Covenant was able to retrieve the armor and inter the bodies of every Arbiter created in their history is more than a little implausible.

Of course, it'd be fully within the Elite mindset to give an Arbiter only the most basic tech for the job for the sake of "honor" and "tradition" and such. And going by H2A's terminals the Prophets would probably fully condone it for the sake of getting rid of the Elite quicker.

I feel like the lightrifle scope is the only well thoughtout one. Its not intrusive like the others, the aesthetic just encompasses the point of view without being too annoying like DMR sights or BR sights.

Of course the best type of scope is the original trilogy and reach ones, but if they want to be more flavorful like they were in 4, this is a good design example

I have the Classic scope from Halo Online's version of the H2 BR, but I don't have Halo 5's DMR and AR. The AR is the main problem since I can't very easily cut out the slot for the scope.

Models shouldn't take too long to get out anyways, I already have all of the textures I need but we're still waiting on somebody figuring out how to properly extract the mesh data in a way that won't look like arse. As soon as I have the assets in my hands I'll have a play.

Does /hg/ just ignore h5 being 14th on the xbl most played list?

If all you did was read /hg/ you'd think h5 was doing well. Why do people here ignore the game's issues?

-Lack of a manner to play the game's base 4v4 gameplay in a social manner. Where the hell is social slayer?

-Horrendous aiming mechanics that border on indie game quality. This game's aiming feels so clunky and broken compared to other triple AAA fps games including all other past halo games (3v4i's own h4).

-Generic, uninspired gameplay. Where's the uniqueness? Where's the patented halo feel?

H5 feels like a cookie cutter shooter.

H5 does a lot of stuff well and I'm all for getting excited about free new maps by its not healthy for a community to blatantly ignore a game's faults.

You can just ignore ranks in slayer if they bothered you so much. There's tons of unranked modes anyways.

Aiming feels fine to me

I don't think it's generic, it's a better evolution of halo gameplay than reach or 4 ever was, and it still feels like halo to me. Whereas reach mostly didn't, and 4 definitely didn't.

The whole idea that it's pay2win is debunked when the exact same rewards are given out in abundance by simply playing the game and earning REQ points.

Are you denying that?

>>
>>154856013
I don't want to dredge up the pay2win debate, I disagree with your claim that nobody said "reqs don't provide an advantage".
Anons were arguing that between equally skilled teams the one with larger req pool didn't have an advantage. How is that not saying reqs don't provide advantage.

An argument about req pools being equitable in general because most people earn enough simply playing is different than simply claiming reqs provide no advantage.
>>
>>154855690
Nah how about we talk about the game's actual objective flaws instead of personal opinions like "the aiming feels bad to me and I don't like the new gameplay"

The campaign is absolutely horrible

The RNG unlock system is terrible (and armor customization is more limited than halo 3)

The lack of split-screen in a halo game is fucking inexcusable

Every BTB map being forged is fucking lazy on 343's part

Still no 2+seater flying vehicle

Microtransactions are excusable because they give no benefit to one player over another. Unless we're in a made-up hypothetical scenario where it's still launch day and nobody has anything unlocked. Sure, THEN the dude who blows his money on reqs will have an advantage.

It also means free DLC, which keeps the already low playerbase unseperated.

Exactly

So why do ranks bother you enough to want a whole new social slayer playlist

It's not even like the ranking is that great. Every match won't be a super-competitive perfect-matched team focused trial. It's the same as any other halo.
>>
>>154859407
>>154859689
Social playlists have always been more flexible in terms of the trueskill system and it feels more relaxed with players playing for fun instead of agressively focusing on winning. I just want one single "Team Social" playlist to be added, i don't see what's the big deal about it.
>>
>>154859689
I don't understand that point of view anyways. What is the point of multiplayer if not to test your skills against other players.


Do you just expect every match to be a steamroll in your favor? Want to win every time?

Maybe you don't care and just want to play for fun. Well, good news, you can continue to do that even though there is a little symbol and number next to your name.
>>
>>154860028
>aggressively focus on winning

Well, yeah. That's the whole point of the game, idiot. Nobody plays to lose. Its been like this in every single halo game, ever.
>>

>>
>>154860260
Not aggressively focusing on winning doesn't mean your playing to lose.
Have you guys never played local, lan, or in a party where one guy is clearly more invested in winning?

I'm not the anon wanting social slayer, but casual and ranked versions of the same playlist are super common in multiplayer games. Halo just doesn't have the pop to support it.
>>
>>154861078
Again, casual and ranked in h5 are the same. Casual just makes your rank invisible.
>>
>>154861184
Which means they're different. They also would have separate hidden ranks.
I don't get why you're acting like a social version of playlists where there is no viewable rank are some crazy concept, so many games have them.

But there's literally no actual difference in gameplay. You will still be being matched against players of comparable skill level. The only difference is a little sticker next to your name being gone

Are you seriously so autistic that the little rank sticker bothers you so much that you need a whole new mode
>>
>>154861467
I believe Overwatch has it, I know league of legends did for years but I haven't played in awhile.
>>154862150
There's a difference because in social nobody is at risk of losing public rank. Nobody cares about losing hidden rank because you can never know it.
The risk/reward of loosing a match in ranked is more than losing an unranked match for most people since most people do care about their public rank.
So if I wanted to play a casual match of slayer, my only choice is ranked where even if I don't care about my rank I may let down my teammates. Now if I want to just causually play I'll just end up in BTB or warzone.
Social playlist is more like playing casual match with friends.
>Are you seriously so autistic that the little rank sticker bothers you so much that you need a whole new mode
I'm not the one asking for one, I just don't get why you guys are throwing a fit like it's some retarded idea to have a social playlist.

Sure, and much larger pops.
I'm not saying social slayer is tenable for Halo 5, just saying that social playlists are perfectly fine to have and aren't identical to ranked. Assuming Halo 5 could support one it would be nice but it's not a huge deal.

On a macro scale social slayer is more casual and ranked is more competitive. This is true in basically any game that implements a social and ranked version of a playlist.

I didn't write shit. We have 100 posters in this thread, anon, but I'm pointing out that your own post has a contradiction.

>but I'm pointing out that your own post has a contradiction
Where is the contradiction? I said that in any game that implements a social and ranked version of a playlist the playlists in general play more casually and competitively specifically.
Halo 5 has zero playlists with both a social and ranked version so why would Halo 5 somehow prove my statement false?
My claim is that if Halo 5 had a ranked BTB then it would be more competitive than social BTB.

Because you're insisting that it is true because some other game has it. This game does not, so it doesn't follow that rule you pulled out of your ass.
>>
>>154866420
>This game does not, so it doesn't follow that rule you pulled out of your ass.
I didn't pull it out of my ass, literally every game I've played that had social and ranked versions of the same mode or playlist follows this. Why would ranked version be more casual than the social version?
When you have both available the vast majority of people playing ranked do care about their rank, if they didn't they'd be in the social queue. Caring about ranks leads to more competitiveness. Full team pubstompers in social queue are the outliers not the norm and I don't see why 5 would be any different.

You think a social slayer queue would be more competitive than the ranked slayer queue if they were both implemented in Halo 5? Are you just playing devil's advocate or you sincerely believe that?
>>
>>154866794
>Why would ranked version be more casual than the social version?
Because rank only matters for those in the upper tiers. In social, every is the highest rank, but you can also gimp the system in Social Big Team, arguably making it way more competitive when you go in with 9/16 people so you have someone sabotage the other team. That's way more tryhard than any callouts. Just because something has ranks doesn't make it more tryhard. Do you actually think silver's and gold's get sweaty?
>>
>>154866996
>Do you actually think silver's and gold's get sweaty?
Yes. And a non-sweaty ones who don't care about rank would've stopped or never played rank if social was available.

>>154868370
>I distinguish between public ranks and skill-based matchmaking.
So now you're just pulling even more shit out of your ass? Because MMR would be closely related to CSR. Now, it just sounds like "Well, the system works how I want it to, not how it actually does."
>>
>>154868596
I thought I had made that clear earlier.
Just because the matchmaker itself operates on the same principle doesn't mean you'll have the same types of people playing and same level of competitiveness.
In a social queue the only risk is the act of losing that specific game, which may be unenjoyable. In a ranked queue you also risk the loss of your rank. People care about their rank so they have more to loose in ranked queue and they try harder.


Imagine if there was a third queue that used the same matchmaker except the punishment for a loss was getting hit in the face. Don't you think the people who played in this queue would be different and would probably try a lot harder to win than the people in social queue? (unless they're masochists).
>>
>>154868979
>People care about their rank so they have more to loose in ranked queue and they try harder.
Only a few at the top, and this is blindly excluding how the "social" playlists are the only place to play certain modes that these same people would go tryhard in. Your stupid theory doesn't apply to 5. Get over it.
>>
>>154869284
People are going to try their hardest no matter what.
>>
>>154869421
So why would it be bound to only ranked and not social?
>>
>>154869284
My "stupid theory" is that if implemented Halo 5 social slayer or ranked BTB would not be identical to their counterpart even though they both use the same match maker behind scenes.

You or some other anon said earlier that a social slayer queue would be stupid because it would be identical to ranked slayer, all you have to do is ignore your rank. This ignores that social slayer would play different due to the different players selecting it, your personal choice to ignore your rank doesn't change the fact that the rest of the players generally will care about their rank. Same with a ranked BTB playlist which would be way more tryhard than social BTB.
In Halo 5's current setup you get casual players at lower ranks, but many of those people would self select into the social versions.
The reason a social slayer playlist is a bad idea is because Halo 5 can't sustain it not because it would be identical to ranked slayer. If Halo 5 had a million players we could have a ranked and social version of every playlist and it would be great not redundant.
>>
>>154869815
>your personal choice to ignore your rank doesn't change the fact that the rest of the players generally will care about their rank.
This line alone fucks over your entire theory. You now have to prove that the vast majority of players DON'T use this train of thought.
>>
>>154869939
That is under hypothetical of adding a social slayer queue.
If there was an unranked and ranked slayer queues were available why would the majority of ranked players not care about rank? Those people would select the unranked queue. This is how it is in basically every game that has a ranked and unranked version of a mode.
You don't see this in Halo 5 because they've forced every person who wants a slayer match into ranked queue.
>>
>>154870443
>If there was an unranked and ranked slayer queues were available why would the majority of ranked players not care about rank?

The topic was about the addition of social slayer queue. I took issue with anons who claimed a social slayer queue would be redundant because it is identical to ranked slayer if you just ignore your rank.

Of course there are people are people in the current ranked slayer queue who don't care about ranks, this is because they have to play ranked to play slayer. If there was a social queue why would they play ranked?

Hidden skill based matchmaking doesn't preclude different groups self selecting different play lists which leads to the playlists being different in terms of "casualness".
If there was a casino slayer queue where you could gamble reqs it'd be tryhard to the extreme even if it used the same hidden mmr system.
I don't understand why you think casual and rank-minded players wouldn't self-select into the two playlists if they were available. As it is now they all get thrown into one.
>That's not why it's redundant, you retard.
Why is it redundant? In other games unranked playlists are very nice because it lets you play a match of your preferred gamemode without having to go try hard. If I enjoy climbing the overwatch ranks on the weekand, it's nice to be able to come home from work and just play a couple quick matches without blowing my rank.

Because, with Halo 5's systems, there would be ZERO difference other than one showing a shiny medal and one not.
>Why is it redundant?
Because Halo 5's social playlists match you with people of the same rank you have in that playlist. There is no difference. It's not like 3 where they just shove you in with people of random ranks for a fun romp. You're a plat facing plats and maybe their onyx friend. Just because rank is invisible doesn't make it social.
