I agree.
A lot of them would have actually played pretty well as normal multiplayer maps desu.
Beachhead I think would have been good for Big Team. Corvette would have been a good 2v2 map.
And yeah Overlook we already know works as a 1-Flag map because in the beta it was actually used for 3v3 generator defense.

Could have made for a neat Invasion map. Phase 1 is you're in space with the saber fighters and you have to dissable the corvette's engines. Phase 2 you go inside the corvette and advance through the firefight map area. Phase 3 you try to take the bridge.

I just got wet thinking about this while I read it.
Like holy shit, I'm glad they had that space section in the campaign, but I feel like not utilizing it in multiplayer AT ALL is a huge missed opportunity.

>Could have made for a neat Invasion map. Phase 1 is you're in space with the saber fighters and you have to dissable the corvette's engines. Phase 2 you go inside the corvette and advance through the firefight map area. Phase 3 you try to take the bridge.
Phase 3 would be downright impossible, as you'd be struggling uphill against the enemy spawn or some shit. Unless the Sabre teams could circle around and shoot out the window, that is...
>>183849609
Reminder that Halo 5 Guardians had none of this, outside of Wasps, Banshees, and Phaetons on that one space-themed multiplayer board.

>>183849609
Destiny was planned to have ship combat in space as well (both VS AI and players) but ultimately it was scrapped and the ships turned into glorified loading screens

>>183850167
destiny was also planned to not be a terrible game and we all know how that went

>>183849942
They could aleays just modify the inside of the ship to add an extra path to the bridge or two. They do that with with all the other invasion maps as well anyway. In Tip of the Spear, I'm pretty sure there's only one path up to the spire as opposed to the map where you can literally just gravlift or fly up there.

>>183850819
>aleays

>>183850819
Well you say easily, but because of how Covenant stuff is always curved, it's very hard to just add in new places. It's not nearly as modular as a UNSC ship.

>Tip of the Spear, I'm pretty sure there's only one path up to the spire as opposed to the map where you can literally just gravlift or fly up there.

You will get nothing on its own before the winter.
There is a VERY SMALL CHANCE that the ending of Awakening the Nightmare will HINT at something Halo 6-related much in the same way the ending of the main campaign did, but don't bet on it.
I would expect that in early 2017 we will get some details. We are promissed a multiplayer beta for all post-H4 games, so I'd expect that to be in the spring or summer of next year. I think a super bowl ad is a likely spot where you first get a Halo 6 teaser, so that would happen in early February.

Anon probably is under the impression that the Spirit of Fire had the shit they have in Halo Wars 2 back during the events of Halo Wars 1. Anders was nowhere near as skilled with Forerunner tech as she was in HW2 - in HW1 it was literal 'I wonder what would happen if I touch this' and the interface reacting to her presence in kind.

>>183857091
She's cute, so if that's your thing then I get it, but personally 2 is too snarky and 4 is too sexy for me to not give them the top 2 spots.

>>183857217
True.
I mean Anders was also Asian in Halo Wars 1 so as far as I'm concerned the forerunner knowlege difference is a relatively minor detail.

I come back to H5 about once every 6 months or so and I usually stop playing about 5 minutes into the first game out of pure disgust.

Radar doesn't tell you where somebody is until they're close enough to beat you down.

The starting weapon, the magnum, is better than any gun in the game.

Doubles is completely ruined with overshield and/or invis in every single map.

Spawn times are so bad that if you sprint from spawn, you can kill the guy that just killed you before his shield can recover from the shots you put on him before he killed you.

The instant kill button for some reason throws a grenade out of your spartan's hands.

Vehicles serve no purpose except for exploding when accidentally running over an speck of dust.

Will Halo 6 be good, or are the devs just gonna keep pandering to nobody?

/HG/ I NEED YOUR HELP
I'm looking for a youtube video that covers the development and differences between the various rereleases of Halo CE. It was over 15 minutes long, possibly 25 minutes or more, and a good chunk of it was analysis of the framerates for each version. I've been searching for it for days with no luck, anyone know the one I'm talking about?

>>183868234
on this point alone he's almost right. sprint means that someone can reach you very quickly after entering your radar range. it's not impossible to catch them before getting spartan charged or some shit, I'm a shitter and I do it fairly regularly, but it is one of the bigger issues with sprint imo.

Just completed the new DLC, it was nice overall, pretty much what i expected from such as small campaign expansion but it was too damn short, it needed at least 1 more mission, i'd have paid more for just an extra mission.

Pros:
>ODSTs are cool as always
>Hero unit is fun to use
>Fun but short
>Levels are longer and more difficult than most of the main campaign missions
>Colony is canon

Cons:
>Ended too fast
>5 man squad but only 2 of them talk
>No Major Vaughan leader for multiplayer
>No achievements? (Or maybe they are not working right now)

>>183868475
It's not bait. My main issue is that I'm way above average at every other Halo, but this one I can't manage to go positive more than once every 10 games.

I'm just buttblasted, but I still think my complaints are valid.

>>183868117

He is the ultimate Garry Stu. He's a terribly overdone and overly capable black male protagonist that is shoehorned in our face. He is the Force Awakens' Rey of Halo. He is a terriblly dull and noncharismatic character, to the point where they actually changed the VA invetween games and nobody noticed. That's how dull he is. Worse than Palmer, worse than H3 Miranda. The single worst character in the series. Period.

I don't hate H5's campaign as much as a lot of people do. I think it's the worst in the series, but I don't "hate" it. I enjoy some of the levels and have a decent time playing it with friends.
But that being said, everything you said is spot on. Locke is simply indefensible and irredeemably terrible. He was so bad that he has actually ruined any possibility of us getting another more interesting protag in future games because 343 has now promissed due to how bad Locke was that the Chief will return to the spotlight of main character for the future.
Fuck Locke.

Listen, fag. I don't give a fuck about your helmet drama. But I want more people to play with in the company than the same 8-10 autists who complain and yell about the same shit every single time.

You expect the randoms to talk and play with us? Or are you implying there's actually people from the thread who play frequently and aren't already in the company?

>>183905379
Nah. We need new people. People that don't play are taking up space

>>183905379
Most of the people that ask to join are not even in the thread anyway so your argument is flawed deom the start.

The company was made so /hg/ anons could find and play with eachother more easily. If there's no more /hg/ anons around these days, then so be it. I see no reason why randoms should be accepted in.

Ever since Achilles was announced, nothing but drama has come of the company. Nothing but constant bickering about how the leader is shit and needs to do more, booting people, arguing about grinding, and so on.

At the very least remove people that don't play. You don't have to immidiately replace them with "randoms" (I was a "random" and didn't post here before joining the company first so that logic is already flawed, but I digress) but at least remove people that simply don't play. I think that's a perfectly fair opinion.

Great campaign, good level design, good missions, but...
Problem one: Only two members of the squad had dialogue. You do not write up a bio like this:
>Sparks is the squad sniper, and something of a wildcard even among the Spirit of Fire’s impressively large cast of misfits and rogues. Sparks’ long list of non-judicial punishments and reprimands would have landed him a full-time billet in the ship’s brig were it not for two unique qualities: his unparalleled skill with a SRS-99 anti-materiel rifle, and supernatural ability to acquire the rarest [and tastiest] meal packs on the ship. Luckily, Helljumpers value good chow and a good shot more than adherence to UNSC regulations, which keeps this “Lance Criminal” from behind bars – so far.
>Sparks provides fire support for the command squad with his sniper rifle and assists Turpin by designating priority targets for her drone. He also contributes to the squad’s morale with his vast knowledge of terrible jokes and patently ridiculous [but completely true] “war stories” from his civilian days.
And not give him ANY dialogue. It works for the medic:
>Petty Officer Gruss is the Navy combat medic assigned to Major Vaughan’s command squad. A woman of [very] few words, the ODSTs make it their mission to interpret “Doc’s” opinion of their shenanigans by analyzing her body language, sighs, rude gestures, and grunts of disapproval.
But not for the chatterbox sniper.

And the final objective... why? It's a fully functional Forerunner fighter craft, with possibly its own independent slipspace drive... why blow it up? That was some WH40k-esque 'THE STATUS QUO MUST REMAIN' bullshit plot decision there. THE LOCATION IS SECURE ENOUGH TO PLOP DOWN A RESEARCH BASE THERE FOR FUCK'S SAKE.

HW2 still follows the classic post launch content model of multiple paid DLC with their own achivements tied to them.
Halo 5 had the new model with multiple free updates and no achievements except for 1 single big update that adds. GoW4 and Titanfall 2 have been similar in that regard.

They 343'd it

>>183914225
...You know, I was thinking the only hard part would be the timed final mission (and that fucking Colossus stomp bonus objective), but then I saw that fucking GOLD MEDAL requirement.
That means fuck-all for buff skulls (like resource increase, health increase, build time decrease etc.) and probable requirement for debuff skulls.
On the other hand, I do hope Anders will eventually get Controller Sentinels added to her unit composition, because those things were fun as fuck to fight.

>>183914225

Aye, and it's compounded with the 'do not lose a single Colossus' objective as well.
Hell, there's another bonus objective on Gatecrashers that I didn't even find. Probably because I cleared the map of enemies before capturing the control towers...
>I tried saving my game yesterday but i don't think there's saving on the DLC missions, or maybe it was just a bug.
Huh. At least for me, saving works.
>I get what you mean but by the way it's worded, it seems to require Legendary+Gold+All objetives all in the same run.
I am under the same impression. Maybe they've fucked up on the coding, but...
Hey, at least it doesn't have to have Nightmare on by default!
>Nightmare skull disables saves
...
OH WAIT THAT'S ANOTHER DISAPPOINTMENT
NO NEW FUCKING SKULLS
LIKE ONE TO DISABLE, OH I DON'T KNOW, THE FUCKING ANNOYING HUD?

Campaign starts reusing levels non stop towards the end, but MP is perfect besides vehicles not being able to explode.

>the same 8-10 autists who complain and yell about the same shit every single time

That's me!

>>183915817
>MP is perfect
I will argue that the pistol is broken to the determent of the game until the day I die.
It's silly how powerful it is, and I love it, but holy shit.

something interesting from my frantic search

Note that in Halo Wars 2, difficulty does not directly effect score (it does indirectly since there are more enemies on harder difficulties) so these are best done on easy or normal.

>>183916335
I disagree, but the game is going on 2 decades old, I don't need to white knight it at this point. Its legacy is secure. It just beat out Portal for the newest entrance into the vidya hall of fame.

>no new skulls
What new skulls would you like?

Is she broken?

>>183917616
Not really, but she's new so people will naturally not know how to counter her out of the box and will scream about how she is apparently broken, thus forcing Creative Assembly to nerf her into oblivion, making her completely useless.

So basically she's the same as all other DLC leaders.

>>183917616
No, but scrubs will say so anyways

>>183917223
My man, the issue is tha it specifically says it has to be done on Legendary.

>>183917513
Not him but there's not enough skulls that increase your score.

>>183917876
They should have a skull that removes the hud

I'll keep a close eye on the TrueAchievements page for the game to see when people start completing the tougher Spearbreaker achievements. When they do, I'll message them, asking for advice.

>>183917223
>legendary as a requirement
Um.
>>183917513
Something to disable the fucking HUD - no gamertag in the top left, no map, no fucking timer on the top center of the screen.
>
>Back In My Day: HUD is disabled. Think of the Blind skull. No health bars, no circle around units showing that they're selected (though the icons representing selected units now appear down the left side of the screen). Unit training and structure build menus still pop up when the structure/base slot is selected. Amount of resources collected is unable to be viewed, so you don't know how much res/energy you have until you try to build something. (I ain't salty about trying to get good screenshots of CERTAIN UNITS, nah, why do you think so?)

On a less important note:
>Combat Veteran: All (player) units start at maximum veterancy
this includes campaign enemies too, by the way
>Omniscient: No Fog of War (yes, I know there's an option for this in multiplayer, but this would be for campaign), cloaked units are visible at all times
>Omnipresent: Unit attack range is greatly increased for ranged units, ability cast range is also vastly increased
>Omnipotent: All units have 1HP and cannot be healed, structure health is unchanged
>Shadows: All units are permanently cloaked. Detection range is increased.
>Retro: All music and sounds are played as 8-bit SFX. Dialogue/in-game cutscenes are high-pitched and played at 1.5x speed.
>Damn The Torpedoes: All vehicle units gain the Ram special ability. This includes the Scarab.
>Wub Wub: Condor Gunship weapon fire SFX is replaced with dubstep.
The latter being a UNSC version of the Banished's Wuv Woo skull, of course.

>>183918251
I'm really doubting you need to get all the objectives and the gold at once. I'm guessing they combined the requirements under a single unlock to keep the gamescore for the DLC low.

>>183918369
>Retro: All music and sounds are played as 8-bit SFX.
Yes

Dude, it's a fucking Vidmaster achievement. Nobody remembers Annual (hard in the first section, fun as fuck once you get the Ghosts)? Or Deja Vu?
Or that fucking nonsense referred to as 'Endure'?
Vidmasters are supposed to be fucking hard you disbelieving heretical cunts.

You're doing exactly what he wants. Everything Dog does is an attempt to build a persona for himself. The thing about Kai being "the leader", sigmund being "the lier", or Red being "the drunk" is that whether they deserve the titles or not, in one way or another they earned them from other people without their own consent. Those are steriotypes about them that people know to associate with them.

The difference with Dog is that his persona is forced by his own hand. It doesn't come from outside himself, but from within. He's a man (or boy, we don't know) so incredibly insecure about his own personality that he refuses to let any part of it become identifiable, including even his voice. The whole Megumin meme is what Dog WANTS you to associate with him. That's not what he really is like as a person. That's something he has put effort into churning out in the discord, in the thread, and on Xbox at a constant rate in an attempt to make you just think that's his character trait when in reality he's probably just some neet that cares way too much about people judging him. We know this because he will from time to time randomly just say shit in the discord like "haha you will NEVER hear my voice XD" as if we even care, we never asked. But he is trying to make it a meme.

TL;DR it's all a ploy. We have no idea what Dog is actually like because he won't actually just be himself online. And that would be fine and all if he didn't insist on putting up this fake front of "i'm the guy that doesn't talk, but I bark like an animal and like this girl from this anime". He's basically the equivalent of that guy in the thread fishing for (YOU)s instead of earning them. Just ignore the whole thing.

She's dead.

>>183919249
We don't know that. What if she downloaded herself into the Domain? What if she's the Guardian that stopped Anders on the third installation 04?
