Why are they being so restrictive?
One of the window is in the middle of the night here in Europe. This weekend I'll only be able to play Sunday Night based on this, that's it.
Yeah, its pretty satisfying and unique when you have a good dual magnum duel, i kinda wish that was the meta when H3 launched instead of BR like in H2.
they want to stress the servers so having it only open during a set time allows for a higher concertation of people at once
Let's just hope servers can sustain so much people at once and not crash to only allow us to play the last 30 minutes of each first window.
As I'm in Europe, the second window is almost useless...
At least let the rest having Matchmaking with bots and PVP only during these windows.
I know there will be training alone VS bots but that's not the same.
Weird choices but I get it.
I'm excited to have vehicles return to 4v4 maps - hope the vehicle sandbox is good (not to dominant, not too weak). No lasers and hopefully the skewer isn't an insta kill (but definitely should flip a hog!)
Hey folks! I've been advised I can share this here (this ongoing thread was my home for many years after all!)
Myself and the folks at XboxEra are going to try and create the biggest Halo community montage EVER, and I would love it if you guys would join the party and submit your clips!

They mentioned a new game mode called Total Control. Just the name makes me think about Battlefield and having to control 3 zones to score points. I guess we'll see soon enough!
Watching the xboxera clip I remembered something I can't adress about forerunner gun desintegrations animations since Halo 4:
When a body is desintegrating, the polygonal face of the model disappearing is not there and it gives the body a "hollow" look.
It would be much better if there were a black textured (or ashed-like texture) when the models desintegrate.
I don't know if I made myself clear...

From what I understand "light" vehicles will spawn at bases and "heavy" vehicles will be air dropped in.
Anybody know if the digital copy of Halo Infinite included in the Limited Series X bundle includes any sort of preorder bonus DLC like all the retailers do for preorders of the game? Those blue armor/weapon coatings.

It sounds like at the start of a match there will only be non heavy vehicles spawning but as the map goes on heavy vehicles start to spawn.
It sounds pretty fun to me, I'm excited to give it a shot. Ramping vehicles up as the match goes on but still with equal spawns for both sides. Can't say how I feel about it until I play it but I'm interested and optimistic.
While I'll probably end up agreeing with this, H5 had no mass long term appeal. So, if we want a future with Halo, another direction had to be taken.
I meant the Mythic Arena mode, which is kind of a mix between H1 maps, H2 br and some H5 features and abilities, without sprint.
Its so fucking cool but no one is playing it nowadays.
That was my point, not many people are interested in that type of gameplay, lol.
the best H5 settings was Spartan II … kept thruster and Sprint , but BMS matched sprint. And had the Spartan Ability Radar. Jump height and gravity was adjusted to make clamber redundant.
I adored it. honestly, thinking back on it, reminds of Halo Infinite was during the test flight, but with a slightly faster move speed and thrust…

I never got an email invite to the last flight but I still got in.
If you have signed up before the 13th I wouldn't worry about it.
I too am unsure on the change, but have to admit hearing your AI announce an incoming drop, seeing the pelicans approach and land, and teams battling over position to claim them, sounds awesome.
I do believe there's some sort of 'limited bandwidth/relay' thing going on but I don't think it's based on rank, amongst our friends (all Onyx, mostly all from Europe) we know based on experience that a few will be chosen to be able to go toe to toe against South Americans (It's insane how popular this game is in South America, shout out to Halo Colombia) whilst others can't and roughly there will be about only four good connections to go around, it used to feel like there were two from each side that would get 'picked' but it can be 3 v 1 or one-sided. It's hilarious when you rematch with the same people (happens a lot with such a small player pool) that you take turns in destroying or being destroyed. We've had matches where Champions can barely kill and go -KDA or Platinums will go top of their team against and amongst Onyx. Not to mention the game has some strong interpolation/prediction so client/server calculations get thrown on top of animations that just don't match up.
eh
I hope thats fixed. That frame should 100% be able to be jumped on.
Ghost jumps are more like going from Gold 1 to 2 on Guardian. There doesnt seem to be a piece of geo there to jump on. Lockout door frames were very much clear and and obvious geo
Is that harder in MCC? I could do it np in H3 proper, but I have trouble in MCC.

Almost as if this community is wretched and don't know what they want.
Like motion tracker. I'll never forget those wonderful 2 hours, like I've never forgotten the Halo 3 Beta Carbine.
Halo devs sleeping on Better Halo™
Bots don't yet know how to handle vehicles? Isn't this game launching in a few months? That's odd.
It should be fine, like, if there's one, it will be a few hours delay, not days. it's already been played online, so I'm not so afraid for that supposed delay:

Behemoth looking good so far.
You guys saw those red marker waypoints? That's the next step for social 😜

Actually, this would solve the issue of campers with radar. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So that's a 4v4 map with at *least* a Ghost and a Warthog (might have missed other stuff) confirmed. The map looked a lot of fun, too.
