/hg/ - Halo General

>played 2 matches total
you forgot that fact

>mfw firefight is still too easy

thanks for the reqles goy

>But how many reqs did you spend in those matches?
Not nearly as many as in a normal warzone match.
The payout for what I put in compared to normal warzone and especially assault is much better.
By the time I'm in a wraith/scorp/mantis, I'm good for the match usually.
Literally all you need is good team work. This shit is not hard.

FIRST FOR SIGMUND THE CRYBABY

Was I the only one expecting a Firefight like in Reach in ODST? This is hardly similar.

I agree. The damage you do to the mobs vs the damage they do to you is way disproportionate

>Was I the only one expecting a Firefight like in Reach in ODST? This is hardly similar.
You clearly didn't play the beta.

And even if you didnt, it was always labeled as Warzone Firefight. Nobody expected this to be like the original.

It's Firefight just in name, it's a unique mode on it's own, not better, not worse, different.

That's a good job, hectorlo

>Not nearly as many as in a normal warzone match.
How much do you use in a normal match?
>Literally all you need is good team work.
I'd like to see you finish three wardens in base wave with just good team work and no reqs.

They added it to req system with hammer of storm I think.

Thanks to whoever made the thread and included /hg/ island stuff, hopefully we'll be able to make a group one of these days to finish the details, buildings and other stuff.
Here's the map link if you want to check it out:

You can thank Wizards0nly for that, he did most of the job.

lose round because too many enemies and not enough time or damage output to kill them

I definitely see your point

9 out of 10 times what I always do is use only the magnum and AR for round 1. If somehow I'm not at level 3 by round 2, I quickly kill off one of the bosses with nades to get there. Once I'm at level 3, I spawn an ONI Warthog and stay with that until death. Seriously, the ONI hog is a level 6 req given to you at the price of level 3. It's a steal.
By the time I die (if I die) I'm always at least at Req level 6 or higher and spawn whatever scorp/mantis/Banshee I have and just stay in that for the rest of the match.
It works pretty much every time. I almost never have to use any weapon reqs in warzone firefight.
Again however, communication is key. With a good team of 8 it's never a problem.
>I'd like to see you finish three wardens in base wave with just good team work and no reqs.
The only time where 3 wardens is a problem is March on Storm Break round 5 IF they spawn the wardens in the core base, because you can't overwhelm them with vehicles in there, but even there we win roughly half the time.

My advice to you is to stop wasting your high level weapon reqs on WZF. Stick with hogs and tanks and you'll be fine.

...

>kill off bosses with nades

What bosses can you down with a couple of grenades? That sounds a bit extreme

Use a ghost

>use a ghost
>on enemies in a building with limited mobility

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

Thanks for the link. If I don't make the next thread, make sure whoever does makes mention of this or uses this link.

The reason I didn't include Wizards is only because it was on your youtube. I'm aware he's one of the lead atchitects on the map.

There's no level 2 boss that can't be harmed a lot by splinter nades, especially if they're knights. Maybe they won't die from it, but you'll get the assist which will push you over to level 3 if you're not there already.

I was just suggesting a strat that works. If it's really too hard for you to do then I understand why you're having so much issues you fucking shitter. Literally git gud

Are pulse grenades canonically a different thing than splinter grenades?

Or did 343 just improve their effectiveness and 'splinter' is just a slang term or something?

if you're trying to drive a ghost in a cramped building with a dozen Prometheans inside, you're going to get blown the fuck up, hence why it doesn't fucking work

It's like you don't even read

Ghosts wreck soldiers. All you have to do is tap them.
>but knights
They wreck knights too. Just shoot the side then the mouth. Boom. Done.

Literally git fucking gud.

I'm trying to access my reqs and I'm stuck in the "retreiving data" spinner, any ideas?

Ya I'm not even going to argue with you.

>drive ghost inside building
>can't move
>get stuck
>surrounded by enemies
>Get shot and die

I don't understand how you can't see this logic. What you're saying is a strategy that would only work where you have room to get good forward momentum

WZFF is bad because to make it difficult they just threw hp and damage on enemies and because Promethean have never been fun to fight.

final wave

Did you check if it loads in custom games like i told you?

...

gonna start this comment by saying i very rarely played warzone before firefight, i always stuck to the arena
--
why do i sometimes end a firefight match to see i have multiple gold & silver req packs to open?

I have a mic but i don't want you guys making fun of my korean accent.

>bias
>in charge of anything
Guy literally had to kicked yesterday because he wouldn't stop giggling like a little girl

>Big Red
>in charge of anything
We should be removing normies, not encouraging them

>Dimple

>I have a mic but i don't want you guys making fun of my korean accent.
I think that's kind of cool actually.

Besides, Dragoneye already has a lisp and nobody makes fun of him. You'll be fine.

I like the pulse grenades. only good thing to come out of 4

>Korean
No wonder you're so good at building things, your tiny hands are made for factori- controllers.

>Dragoneye already has a lisp and nobody makes fun of him
I think it's the other way around, isn't that reason he left for a few months? Because everyone made fun of his lisp?
And i'm not korean btw, someone said that once in the party chat and i decided to roll with it.

>I like the pulse grenades

No, he left for a few months because his account got permabanned. He should've expected it after messaging a random telling him to get cancer.

>yield the ghost
>VP

Pulse grenades were a cool concept with terrible execution, they were too weak and useless against vehicle. Splinter nades are the same concept actually done right.

Pulse nades would be great if they instantly incinerated anything their blast radius touched. This would work fine of they beeped for maybe 2 seconds before detonating.

>nobody makes fun of him

One of our new recruits, who also happens to be a champion

>splinter nades
damn i fuckin miss brutes, choppers, etc
all this forerunner shit is so lame.

hello friends i havent played a custom game since i think halo 3, maybe reach a few times. when do u guys usually play them and can i join?

noice

I think MCC customs are the weekend but the usual host is being a normie this weekend.
Halo 5 customs seem to just happen whenever enough are online and have desire for them.
Yes.

>tfw can't escape plat this season

whats with the over-simplified armor custimzation in MCC? its sad

Did you want it to be even MORE bugged?

spike grenades + bubble shield was a top tier gameplay situation

>breakout
see me in griffball

Is it even possible to win the "Kill 7 Promethean bosses" round? 5 Minutes just isnt enough time to kill 4 yellow Soldiers, a shit ton of Inc cannon knights and 3 Wardens.

>Not masturbating to it

NORMIES GET OUT

>SFM porn
>not normie

Run soldiers over, gang bang knights, hope you have enough time to kill wardens

I've just gotta say whoever put the new company bio and is actually kicking inactives for active people thank you. If you can just step it up now and kick like 10 inactives that would be great.

Normies only fap to actual porn or pony porn

i just dont understand why theyd simplify it like that
and couldnt they just determine which armor you have access to by checking your achievements/progress in the other games or something? how am i supposed to show off how big my dick is if i cant wear my flaming recon helmet?

This has always been the case, the company doesn't get sat on just the bio got changed. Inactives get kicked based on the amount of requests we receive. Easier to free up spots when we get more interest then potentially kick people that could start playing again in the meantime. We've swapped about 4 or 5 inactives for 4 or 5 actives in the last day or 2

>pony porn
That is my fetish

I feel as though being at almost max capacity deters people from possibly wanting to join though Kai. If we with less people we may get some more requests.

/hg/ arena rep confirmed.
I want to train with him.

Yeah, I feel like 95-97 would be sweet spot.

I was thinking closer to 90-93

Oh boy, we got a new Secretary of Arena.

>one by one the old guard of /hg/ returns for WZFF

beautiful

What the fuck is wrong with the fucking servers? I've been disconnected from more firefight games than I've finished. I've lost seven req boosts to server disconnects. It's bad enough that Firefight is barely playable but do their fucking servers need to go down every twenty minutes on top of that?

Now after FF wears off we can all go back to warzone

T-two Sperms!
I repeat 2 Sperms!

Works on my machine.
