Where do I go to place bets on this so I can put everything down on Leprechaun?

>implying Backup won't repeat
I will gladly take all your money

>Rtas Vadum and the Shadow of Intent will return in Halo 6
>Will serve as the Swords of Sanghelios mobile HQ while fighting Cortana
>Chief will engage Cortana's forces alongside Arbiter
>Warden Eternal will attack
>Arbiter will die in a cutscene that's supposed to be epic and heroic but fails due to bad choreography, mocap, contrivance, etc.
>Rtas will become new leader of the SoS

oh boy I can't wait...

Don't they play in round one?
That should be the opening match.

Best design

this

As much as I dislike the hexagons, I actually agree because until this version the design was largely unchanged and looked like a toy gun

I need an answer from 343 WHY there are so many HEXAGONS.

They're on 80% of things in the game. Why? Why!? How did Humans and an alien race coincidentally decide on the same design choices of hexagons everywhere? FUCKING WHY!? It drives me fucking mad. Give me a good reason 343. WHY!?!?!

Not hexagons though, those are cubes.

Because they’re A E S T H E T I C you fag

>backup making it to top 8

...

>sigmund making it to top 8

The frostraven looks kinda cool, i might buy it.

the finals should be a best of 3. 1 game on each map.

it's like a supa falcon!

I don't have helmets for everyone. It's just 8 competitors, not necessarily the top 8.
Hell, does ANYONE have dew's helmet?

Sigmund can legitimately win the entire tournament

...

Sigmund is jewish, he'll (((win))) by (((coincidence)))

dude, ebin
simply ebin
EBIIIIIIN MEEEEME MY DUUUUDE!

...wow... So ebin

Why are you guys playing this dead game when you could be instead playing the game i play, food!

>1944x2592
That's a big resolution.

AHAHAHAHAHAHA DUDE SOY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAAA

WIDE BOII

DID SOMEONE SAY WIDE BOI?!

...

New toys

Raw footage of Sigmund CLEARLY hacking

>that aim swinging left and right
What the hell is your sensitivity at?

Panic

...

>that whiffing
I never pick up the DMR anymore

how'd i do?

...

...

DON'T
CHANGE
A
THING

are you okay

That classic Chief looks cool but why does he look frozen or something?

it's an action figure, user

Not on Waypoint yet

The Halo 3 Classic Throwback playlist has returned! Five additional maps have joined the lineup in this nostalgic experience - Narrows, Construct, Foundry, Epitaph, & Assembly. Hop in with friends today and enjoy!

...

Construct

Foundry

Assembly
What maps were already in?

This looks horrible compared to Halo 3 Assembly.

>h5 forge assembly

i understand that sacrifices had to be made to reach 60fps but did it have to look this bad

looks like some ps2 shit

Halo 5 artistic design is better and SUPERIOR than Halo 3. Halo3babs will deny this.

>discord currently having more halo discussion than the thread

1/10 made me reply

Assembly... nice choice

only because of what happened with the Xbox live error. Generally it's not the case

>page 10

>wrote down 23 different user's names
Time to do some research.
Your reckoning will soon be at hand, /hg/.

the doxxwars in the discord are upon us
>23
you're bluffing

Which names?

>lying on the internet
if anything you have maybe 3 names tops

>Hear about glitch
>Reset Xbox
>Open friend's list, scroll down the whole thing
>Open Halo General Club, scroll through most of it

It wasn't that difficult

>still lying

as far as I can tell the glitch was limited.
My name wasn't showing

Post them then

You’re walking with your gf and this fucker slaps her on the ass and says misogynistic stuff
What do

he won't because he doesn't actually have them

"Fuck off Jan"

this

compliment him on how nicely his color choices work with the armor set

Halo TV series to start filming soon™

>the year is 2552
>halo tv show first season finally airs

Good job I'm not in the club then

>bought a cheap ass windows phone for cheevos
>tfw open the thread on it and people are being doxxed

bullshit. He just made that Easter eggs: The movie

Looks good, the original was already dull-looking so no much room for improvement.

Really good.

Really bad looking, Forge provides the tools to do it so much better than this.

Not bad, shit map though.

Pretty good.

They'll probably try to advertise it along Halo 6 in 2019.

Halo 6 will be announced at the E3 2018 most likely or gamescom

I'm sure it will but a 2018 release feels impossible to me. There's no way they'll only want 4 months of ad campaign for Xbox's biggest title.

What's the most kino Halo moment

a warning to dobatch, I can crush you at any moment

Anything with the Prophet of Truth.
Holy fuck was he a great character in Halo 2.
youtu.be/_pGYyocIsBo

Does anyone know where I can get some Halo wallpapers? I've looked on /wg/, but I cant seem to find them.

This could have done without the ""hacking"" shit... I hate it when hacking is displayed that way

how

a warning but wel see what happens

Someone take every Halo character from Halo CE-5 and compare them to an /hg/ user

good thing my name never showed up

Sure it didn’t Adam

didnt need your name from your xbox Adam

I'm pretty open about my name being Adam most people already know

>Nameposting
Oh boy what a great new meme

Ok man, tell Julie I said hi

ok retard

Hello. This is a screenshot of a BTB map being developed for halo 6. It is called "iceberg" right now. Think Valhalla/The Covenant type envrionment.

There is also a desert/volcano/wasteland type map but it is very unfinished and untextured right now. Only 2 BTB maps at launch. 4 warzone maps. Forge maps are planned too.

There is also something I found kind of interesting, imagine a theater mode where you can replay matches, except you can go inside the Match and actually play against the replays

This has very cool potential for custom games and is one of the ways they're introducing "AI's" to forge. Basically you can save replays of actions and spawn them into the map

holy shiiiiiiiiiit

please be good
