Oh My God Halo

[Anarchy]

Stuff just announved at gamescon makes me wana cry:

MCC has 1-50 ranking

Sanctuary remade on H2A

Halo 5 has no loadouts
Halo 5 beta features midship/heretic

Both Halo games have dedicated servers

MCC had what /appears/ to be some sort of broadcaster mode



Yup.

Is this good cry or bad cry. To me it seems like good cry

[Anarchy]

Good cry.

The Beta runs from December 29th-January 18th and will only feature 4v4 Gameplay.

All the remastered maps have "dynamic elements" too. Sanctuary, for example, has a shootable button that can bring down a waterfall temporarily to block sightlines from red and blue objective.

More info on the Twitter feed on the homepage.

The wait for November just got a lot more difficult.

Ahhh the wonders that is Archer

Only 4v4 now? Now I'm worried, I hope 8c8 are in the actually game. It just seems strange not to add at least one to the beta, maybe they feel they have it down and don't need the feedback. Wow this news sucks

I'm kinda with Zeta, I'da at least had a 6v6 :/ But me having the beta is doubtful so if 4v4s make you guys happy then gg.

Hmmm by watching this video, 343i do indeed seem to emphasise a lot on '4v4 Arena Gameplay' for Halo 5.

[Mythonian]

Yep.

Also I was watching the videos they put on Waypoint (Link) and it looks like Skyline might also be making a return in Halo 5:

Another Skyline-esque angle: http://i.imgur.com/9hMSiiO.png

The second image doesn't really look like Skyline to me. If you go back a few seconds: http://puu.sh/aPPsV/198376ae0b.jpg

It looks more like Condemned from Reach to me, because of that vent-like area on the left, and it's way too spacious for Skyline, unless they maybe enlarged the map to 6v6 size.

And Myth I won't be surprised if we hear nothing about Forge until next year's E3. Hopefully sooner, but I think any info will definitely come after the H5 beta. Also H4 didn't have a public beta.

I had thought they said they were gonna give some basic details during GamesCon or something, but I guess I heard wrong. Oh well. :/
