Remove Sprint

>Spartans all wearing Santa hats
Are the Covenant jews?

Does 5 have any snow maps in rotation other than Recurve and Fracture?

They should've had beards in the pic.

Well this thread is off to a terrible start...

The Covenant is clearly meant to represent the Middle East. You do realize that Halo is an allegory for the War on Terror?

How about you show up on time?
There. problem solved.

RSVP me brah

Ancestor

That one WZ map

I was actually online. The party was locked, I messaged, got no invite.

That sounds sad.
I'm sorry that happened. I wasn't in it either.

Not him, but it happened to many. So the picture has quite a few literal whos and was basically a waste.

In short time your fate will be sealed, /hg/

Not so fast, bucko. I'm a man of morals, and I demand a one-on-one fight!

>if I don't agree with it, it's bait
I actually gave a reason why Sprint doesn't ruin the game

Covenant: Bad Company when?
I want a light hearted romp in the Halo universe enough saving the world shit.

Okay cool but can you give me like two weeks or so to play some videogames first?

You also didn't give a reason as to how it improves the game given the series current projection. Sprint is like the European Union in a sense.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>

And thousands of people before me have given reasons why it DOES ruin the game

>all political opinions are /pol/
wew

Halo is still alive and well the campaign was the and messy launch was the only thing that fucked halo5. Hell where the fps genre is moving to is hero based games like overwatch.

And thousand people gave you how Sprint has no effect or improved halo what's ever. It's you guys are following the hivemind.

When Destiny is done, Bungie will have no choice but to go back to Marathon. Half Life 3 will happen. Nu-Doom is getting a sequel. Activision has like 3 shooters that haven't had an entry since the 6th gen, so does EA. Not to mention, ASSFAGGOTSFPS is a dying genre, Overwatch is hemorrhaging players to battle royale games.

Quite the contrary actually.
But you belong there all the same.

Midship vs Truth
congratulations, sprint has an impact on the game.
Brexit happened for a reason. It wasn't just national interest, the EU is a flawed system that isn't willing to fix itself.

Of course sprint changes the game

How is adding some new movement ability to a game NOT going to change it? Dumbass

>reddit spacing

Like I said

Guys, c'mon
It's Christmas

This isn't controversial material, user. Brexit happened.

No it's not, it's December 2nd, you fucking faggot. kys and never visit /hg/ again. You've been kicked out. [spoier]I hope you are warm and share the love. Sometime this month, /hg/ will play together, and I want to see you there. I want to wish you the happiest holiday ever, Anonymous[/spoiler].

>not Halo is not controversial here

Oh, but anime, video games, christmas, and memes aren't, got it.

Glad we agree
Merry Christmas user

This could have been a really sweet post, but I had to fuck it up somehow.

Happy Holidays
FTFY

Happy Advent Season ye heathen

Just control+S the highlighted text friend

>He can't CTRL-S on mobile

Fucking apple cucks lmao

Saturday morning is our slowest time... will we die?

Cortana did nothing wrong.

Predictions for Halo championship series in 2018?

The what?

Absolutely did not pure waifu stuff dude.

Honest thoughts on 343's direction with the Halo series?

You know those shitty Halo MS paint comics, I have an idea for another one
>Librarian: John humans are mantle
>Cortana: What did she tell you
>Chief: Humans are mantle
>Cortana:That means I am mantle

Good night /hg/

They need to stop having knee jerk reactions to things and just stick with a plan for more than one game

someone explain this image to me immediately

>our highly advanced one of a kind supercomputer is running amok?
>that's alright, we can just make a new one
absolute madmen

How did master chief survive when the portal cut the forward unto dawn in half and left him on the wrong side with a firing ring?

Luck

What do you guys think about the supposed end of $60 games

Goodnight

pic is from previous thread.

surely Spartan Assault didn't have a limited dvd release?
they all look like they're designed for uniformity.

I'll be on in 1.5hrs
ready for campaign playthroughs
will be playing MCC matchmaking until people are ready

Anyone wanna do Halo 2 Heroic campaign for fun? Been listening to the OST and getting an itch.
And who are you?

I'm convinced he browses here.
This is a retarded headcanon concept that was only used for shitposting and he just happens to make a whole video on it? No sir.

Paul pls wait for me for CE.
I'm out buying a tree. Play 3 or something with Tito and the guys.

Hes right.
Glad we can put this behind us.

/one of us/

Halo 5's Legendary difficulty is very similar to Halo 2's Legendary in terms of how weak your character is.

Playing ranked arena, mostly HaloWC, feel free to join

That's not fair though. Chief's armor is in the way. Once you see his face, there's no coming back.

Yeah but 5 legendary is fucking easy.

5 legendary is balanced that way because you can be picked back up.

Problem is the squad system is abhorrent

A reason that isn't correct. A map cannot be made for two different movement speeds.
My understanding was that the portal was like a short tunnel, and collapsed with then inside, spitting them out somewhere along the uncompressed distance between Earth and the Ark.

...

is this like one of those Achilles maymays lol xDDD

Achillis haha :D never ever xDd

Not to mention they have no sense of self preservation.
>call for help
>everyone rushes headlong into you to revive you without even trying to shoot anyone
>whole squad dies like lemmings

I'll pay you five req packs to never reply to my posts again

T. Kai

On a scale of 1-10 how good is a plat 3 placement?

It really is. I didn't even die once during that whole end part on blue team with 4 hunters, fuel rod grunts, camo elites, etc.

GT: PAUL DAINTON
online now for a good 7hrs or so
now would be a good time for campaigns

>Paul pls wait for me for CE
will do.
>I'm out buying a tree
how many ft?

>Hey buck pick this up
>"no"
Fuck this game

It's a fake tree.
I'm going home for Christmas so we didn't see the point of getting a real one in the appt

5-6

I want to hear Red's opinion on the whole difficulty debacle.

I want the whole difficulty debacle to be over with.
