    Xbox Halo 5 Anyone?

    Been enjoying the multiplayer so far so could be good to get some games together.

    Also might be worth setting up a spartan company to do some co-op or warzone if anyone is interested.
    You get a free req pack if 4 people join.

    What does anyone else think of the campaign?

    It looks quite shiny in places and like some of the big battle levels.

    Still feel it's missing the flood and you spend too much time fighting prometheans rather than covenant.
    The weapons feel a lot more powerful in general (before they run out of ammo) and I like the random more powerful variants you can find about the levels.

    A bit annoying there isn't split screen and needs some more maps for multiplayer and to bring back big team battles.
    From some reason they forgot to have Blood Gulch in there. Or some of the other great classic maps. Would have been fine if they had worked in MCC.

    Thanks to inspectercoley

    Loving Halo 5 ;-)

    Nearly completed on legendary is fooking ridiculously hard in places. yeah the promeathians are such a pain as so hard to kill.

    I thought the SAW was shite but then I found the Annihilator (or something) and was the SAW on steroids ;-)

    Not done COOP or Multiplayer yet want to finish campaign and see what the ending of the story is ;-)

    Thanks to akimba

    Love the single player, has a quick go on multiplayer. Will have another rip when I finish it. I think it's the best Halo I've played. 9/10

    Thanks to Robbo

    i like the idea of it, like a cross between domination and firefight as there are random enemies about and bosses that spawn.

    Don't like all of the Reqs side of it where you feel like you are saving for the good guns / tanks the whole time.

    Maybe if I get more kills they come quicker though.

    I'm just waiting for more Big Team battle modes, cos they are usually good.

    Dominate the locations, kill the aliens between the times when someones handed you your arse!!

    Yeah its the reqs bit that confuses me you got to have the card from the packs and also be at the right req level to access it. Seems some people are driving tanks after about a couple of minutes where as I lucky to be able to upgrade me battle rifle all match?

    I get to about req level 5 which is still crappy stuff, I ended up running around picking up better weapons left on the map i.e. battle rifle with a symbol on it or something but doing this meant I got shot more too grrrr!!!

    Mantis at level 8. The req packs are ace. I only unlock gold packs but read yesterday that silver are better to start with until your looking for legendary items.

    Liking the big team battle update. More fun than having to save for the good weapons / vehicles.

    Yes, add lots of maps, although most of them are forge variants from the looks of it.
    The new blood gulch is great.

    The following are included:

      • Added 48 new REQs, including new armors, helmets, weapon skins, weapon and vehicle variants, a new visor and assassination, and new emblems. See below for a breakdown of what’s included.
      • Added Big Team Battle playlist to Arena matchmaking
      • Added BTB (Big Team Battle) Capture the Flag, Strongholds, and Slayer to matchmaking and custom games. The mode details are as follows:

    For all BTB game types, the Motion Tracker is the same size as Warzone at 25m (larger than the Arena Motion Tracker), and match length is 16 minutes.

    • BTB CTF – Score to win: 3 Captures
    • BTB Strongholds – Score to win: 150 points
    • BTB Slayer – Score to win: 100 points

    Added 4 new BTB maps, also available in both matchmaking and custom games:
    • Basin by the 343 Multiplayer team
    • Deadlock by Nokyard & the 343 Multiplayer Team
    • Guillotine by The Psycho Duck & the 343 Multiplayer Team
    • Recurve by The Fated Fire & the 343 Multiplayer Team

    Disappointed with Halo 5 single player. Very short and probably spend more cut scenes than actually playing.

    Getting closer (although still only 500g). Ledgendary is so annoying solo.

    Basically pot luck on if your team mates revive you or not.
    And the constant warden fights get pretty annoying by the time there are 3 of them at the same time.

    Still have to go through with 4 player co-op at some point as there are some tied to that (rolling thunder)

    Couldn't get Worms Don't Surf either. Maybe can try again on an easier difficulty.

    You have changed your service tag and created a custom recently though - could be for the 10g's

    I finally finished that last night.

    Could try and do some 4 player co-op if we can get another 2 together and get the other bits.
