First for iwan2die

Also available is a standard edition physical PC release, but it doesn't come with Halo Wars Definitive Edition or the season pass.

Both versions support play anywhere, unlike the Xbox One physical release

Speaking of die, that's what this threads gonna do.

It's just you and me, lemings.
Locked in an eternal struggle to define the futire of the general.

Says you, faggio.
QUICK, TOP TEN GIMMICKY HALO LEVELS, GO.

I'm about to slepp

This one
youtube.com/watch/oapnivfn;iajeb;ivb

Wait, are those four install discs?

>Wait, are those four install discs?
Yes.
Most PCs dont have blu ray drives like the Xbone does, so instead of one bku ray it's 4 DVDs

Halo doesnt have that many gimmick levels

Theres the library, LNOS, Midnight...

That's pretty dumb, but at leat it has it on disc and not just a download code in a box

>That's pretty dumb, but at leat it has it on disc and not just a download code in a box
Well, it has a disc install, but comes with a verification code you need to use befire you can actually play the game for the first time.
So it's mostly just a novelty.
It's not like you can just give the discs to someone else and they can install it. That being said, verification codes are usually cheaper than the full price of a game.

Halo Wars PC mod kit released by the way:

>github.com/KornnerStudios/HaloWarsDocs/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Oooooooh

>mod kit
Neat.
Hi-res naked Spartans when?

Watch them just ban people on a whim for this

so... how to use it without getting banned?

That's a sexy ass physical edition.
I'm tempted

>forget about this game
>oh fuck I got extra money
>win 10 microshit store only

well...I tried.

>win 10 microshit store only
What? You can buy a console only version

>season pass
They really think this game is going to have that strong of an attach rate that they can pull that?

Wars 1 was pretty damn popular

>Wars 1 was pretty damn popular

That was 9 years ago.
The newest main series game had lackluster sales. Yiu think a spinoff will fare better?

As long as one person buys it, it pays for itself

Just buy it on xbox

>just started playing
>rocking the sexy recruit armor
>suck dicks tho

How do I git gud at this game? I feel like I spawn, run, and die.
Even with a high TTK I feel I can't react to anything

THE /HG/TAGE IV: BUNGIE EDITION is currently accepting clips from these games.
>Halo: Combat Evolved/Anniversary/SPV3
>Halo 2/Anniversary/Vista/Project Cartographer
>Fable 2 as Hal, the Minstrel Chief
>Halo 3/ODST/Firefight
>Halo Wars/Definitive Edition
>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 from the multiplayer and the campaign.

youtube.com/watch?v=sh3KQb9dU4c
youtube.com/watch?v=fofX-OITWMw
youtube.com/watch?v=Bj0swJRlm5g

To submit a clip, either reply to this post with the xboxdvr/thehostyouuse link or message that link to "Sweaty Towels" on waypoint. Each section of the video will feature a piece of the soundtrack from it's score.
As in Halo: CE will only have music that was featured in Halo CE present in the video. If you like to see a specific section then reply with the link.

Cut out the running part.
It may he fun, but running around he ts you merc'd hard if you aren't in a tiny cramped map where spartan charge is king.

Is the physical release still W10 only?
Do we think MS will get their shit together and finally give the xbone mouse support in time for release?

I know the prefered option in either case is highly unlikely to occur but these are the kind of questions that piss me off to no end because they show how blatant MS's pushing of W10 is - forcing it's requirement even when you buy physical and not through GFWL 1.5

Fucking jews I swear to god, m8s.

>Is the physical release still W10 only?
There is no W10 only ohysical release.

The Xbox physical release is console only. See The PC physical release is both PC and console

So the PC physical release is better than the console physical release in every way?

>So the PC physical release is better than the console physical release in every way?
You could theoretically lend the console physical release to someone, as it doean't reauire an activation code.

The PC physical release comes with an activation code. Tge advantage however is that this code lets you play on both PC and Xbox, while the console physical release is restricted to just Xbox.

If it's DX12 only or requires that you run the app store to redeem the activation code and play then it's W10 only on PC. That was my meaning.

I googled it and found an article claiming the latter to be true. Guess I'm playing on console.

You can't play it on another OS that isn't 10 if that's what youre asking.

Yeah, holding out for that kb+m support that's probably never coming what with Scorpio on the horizon.

> 343 will never unfuck recon

What they did to the helmet alone is criminal

Jeez Halo 4 really is garbage
>All explosions are too small, or nonexistant
>Constant lighting issues
>Plasma Pistol uses 2% ammo per shot
>Promethean weapons are all useless
>Chief talks all the time
>Covenant don't talk English

>covenant don't talk English
Good. It should be single words or mangled English only.

What helmet is middle supposed to be? Rouge?

but then you can't understand them

>Plasma Pistol uses 2% ammo per shot
This has been around for a while, and it sort of fits with the whole 'redneck Covenant faction' lore
>Promethean weapons are all useless
The fuck you smoking, ser? I want some of that shit, brah. Must be some real good stash.
Outside of the Z-130 and Z-180, all the Promethean weapons are chambered in concentrated rape.

Anyone up for abusing Isabel on Twitter?
>windowscentral.com/starting-today-you-can-play-halo-wars-2-mini-game-twitter-dm

Why do I need to understand them? I want to shoot them, not listen to their fucking sonnets.

...

oh shit nigga

>ser
>brah
>z-130
>z-180
speak english like a real human being or fuck off

>0,5 second mouse lag
>FOV: 12
>Max. FPS: 60

What the fuck is this?
Call me when the devs get competent.

quick /hg/, show me your pets

>needing more than 60 fps

because of the funny dialogue

kill urself

What the fuck is the point behind locking FPS?

New rule, only Grunts are allowed to speak English

That was underwhelming as fuck. I can't even redeem the code.

Who the hell still has a disc drive?

>Who the hell still has a disc drive?
Most people with a desktop

Non-meme laptops have them too

>Who the hell still has a disc drive

The Elites and Brutes talking English was fun though

...

Silentium was pretty good

...

Be honest /hg/: how well do you usually place in WZFF?

It's the unfortunate future

I am a shut in neanderthal with no twitter but I want those fucking skin codes

reeee

huh?

twitter.com/ISA1307_2/with_replies

So what the fuck is it?

You do a Rock Paper Scissors thing and if you win you get a skin code

what do the skins look like?

We won't know until feburary 21st

Nobody knows

A halo 5 skin code?

that's no fun

i need to decide whether i should make a twitter account for this or not

Halo Wars 2 you silly

Just make a dummy account.

Figured everyone would have at least a dummy by now

I don't because i dont play that shit

So wait... what do i do. Like i get I have to make a twitter, but then what do I tweet?

You tweet "Bonnie Ross loves nigger dicks"

Makes sense

And if you lose, can you try again?

Not with the same account

It's incredibly easy to win

I imagine its the same rules of
>Infantry beats Air
>Vehicles beats Infantry
>Air beats Vehicles

Yes

What the other user said, don't sprint around like it's CoD, stick with your teammates

Ok

It's acceptable on specific maps, like Molten, where it's so crammed in corners become deadly to round.

Wouldn't that be even worse? I would never sprint around a corner in Molten

With how close everything is a spartan charge will fuck you super hard if you get hit. Not to mention you can get anywhere in a few running jumps.

Haah waaw is rated M but Halo 5 isn't.

From what we have seen they seem to be avoiding the Power Rangers plastic anime artstyle that 4 and 5 had and going the complete opposite with baby's first Warhammer 40k

Haahwaaw was rated teen, and has a proper art style explain.

Theres probably a scene where someone gets bloodied the fuck out of them

Or you know flood lmao

Man, I hope it's the flood

Weve seen the part where atriox (I still hate that name) grabs one of the Spartans and crushes their shoulder while throwing the other ones around

Oh please fuck no.

>not wanting the only interesting enemy in Halo to come back

>he doesn't like the flood
I want the weebshits to leave
