Time for a new H5 Machinima this ones short so it didn't take that much effort ;)

Also a cool thing I want to point out, when I was recording for this machinima I found tons and tons and tons of small details and dialogue
There was an elite that would sit with a datapad and every 30 seconds a grunt would come up at him and update him with Information, (Your convoy is on it's way)
(This person is asking this), (Banshees are now in position over the lake something something)

and then after like 20 minutes just sitting there one the grunts came back and repeated the first same dialogue and the Elite got MAD and cursed at the poor little grunt
"YOU ALREADY TOLD ME THAT GET OUT OF HERE UNGGOY" ehh I don't know I just thought it was interesting ;)

In this mission too there's also a Grunt who has a long funny monoologue that pokes fun at many things 343 have changed like the Art style and plot i'ts pretty tight


IF there's one thing this Campaign got right is the awesome attention to detail that has been a staple of Halo IMO
also Exuberant Witness ... definitely Exuberant Witness!

"All I hear is wort wort wort"

lmfao

4:43 "In the whole time the Didact only said like 3 WORDS! 3! He said "I can't be composed!" "Wonder if he wanted that for himself" " I hope he found a way to be that" (Obviously a tesae to the didact's return in the next Halo games or media

Also 5:02

"The Green demon guy was the best you could shoot him and shoot him
and he would never fall over not like... Clarp..."


Also the video didn't even cover half of what he actually says

He later goes on a rant about how Covenant ships have weird long names.etc

[Neesy]

That's fantastic

[TheAandZ]

Yea, Exuberant was pretty good.
The Grunt is pretty funny too but it just reminds me how I loved the H2 grunt voices so much more with their unique, kinda-muffled voices behind their masks. But yea pretty funny

[RockMetal&Time]

Not exactly Halo 5 related but damn this video by my friend Tyler from Halo Collective is pretty boss

Lol I don't know I asked him, and he said it fitted and he liked it...

speaking of which who's up for another Halo anime?
343 plz

[DreuxPhoenix]

Halo Legends II? How about the other novels becoming an anime series? Make sure Studio Ghibli or Funimation do it.

Funimation doesn't make anime. They just distribute and dub it in places that aren't Japan. The Studio Ghibli art style would not work for the Halo universe IMO.

[deadofmind]

If Microsoft partnered with an anime studio for an official Halo anime, who would you guys prefer to see make it? ^_^

[Stevedoggen]

A1 or JC.
Maybe Shaft if they don't overdo the neck tilts.

[Mootjuh]

Ufotable.

[RockMetal&Time]

Hmm interesting interesting!

Now! Would you guys be up for a TellTale Halo Game?
Cause I would kill for it!

nah

[General_101]

All TellTale Games need to die in a fire...
but that's just my opinion.

Also, who made that one anime, Fate of something or other? That's got some nice fight scenes :3 Maybe them for Halo anime?

Tales from the Borderlands was pretty good!

HALO 5 COMMUNITY UPDATE FEBRUARY 12TH (HAMMER STORM UPDATE)

LINK TO THE ARTICLE!

First off we have Valentines Double date
which is currently on right now and features
-2v2 Social Slayer
-Custom-themed and colored Breakout maps, with modified geometry and weapon placement
-Halo 2 BR starts
-Score to win: 30 Kills

While on the topic of playlists, as a result of community feedback from a variety of sources, the Multiplayer Team will be making some adjustments to make social experiences more available (and more varied) moving forward. This means that rather than featuring weekend playlists every week (which often take our MP team away from the development of future full-blown game modes), an additional permanent social playlist will be offered, starting with Social CTF next week. This social playlist will offer an additional experience throughout the week (especially helpful for those who can’t play too much on weekends), and also allow another test bed for new playlists (including additional community playlists and more). Weekend playlists won’t be going away entirely, though. Valentine’s Double Date is a good example of a limited-time playlist candidate, and the team will still be building a few special weekend playlists here and there.

YES! THIS IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN ASKING THANK GOD!

New Game Modes
As a reminder, the February update brings with it new modes such as Assault and Grifball, as well as the ability to create game types like Oddball and Ricochet thanks to custom game options. Also included is Fiesta Slayer. To get the lowdown on how these modes work, head over to last week’s update:LAST WEEKS UPDATE


REQ REVEAL (Some blurred out will be shown next week for now we can speculate)

REQ POSTER:

Now what the heck is that mythic card?! It looks like Tartarus?!?! FUUUG

HELL YEAH WOOOOOOOO!




In addition to the above content, Hammer Storm also brings with it a number of game improvements across Forge, fixes for issues with player warping and game de-sync in some rare cases, UI (user interface) improvements, and more. This week, we'll preview some of the work that the latter team has been doing.

In each meeting I attend around the new building, it always seems like teams around the studio are grabbing me to let me know about something they just finished that is slotted for a future update. I then get very excited, and ask when I can tell all of you about it. The most recent example comes this week, when our UI team said “Hey, by the way, we’ve got some cool stuff coming in this month’s update!” So I then got the details.

Like many teams at 343, the UI team is one that is generally well aware of community feedback before the community team can even send it to them. Here’s a summary of feedback we had seen after launch on colors as it pertained to Spartan customization, and some context from the UI team:

Kevin McGinnis, UI Art Lead
In an effort to give players more choice and control over the look of the Spartan and Emblem the UI team worked to expand the color palette. For Armor, we now allow individual selection of Primary and Secondary colors, and for Emblems, individual selection Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary colors. There are no restrictions, so players can choose 2 of the same color to create a totally different looking emblem.

Players couldn’t make their armor color similar to the Master Chief or other major character
There was no brown, orange, purple, or black
There were not enough greens, and too many blues and pinks
Emblem “harmonies” (pre-set combinations) restricted player choice
So, then team has made the following changes in the February update.

Expanded the color palette for armor and emblems from 32 to 60 colors
Replaced the emblem harmonies with simple, primary, secondary and tertiary color options (see below)
These new options have no restrictions – you can make any 2 of them the same color and get a completely different looking emblem shape
These new colors carry over to Waypoint as well

Alright woah that was a lot for a community update

There is a bunch of cool community stuff in the bottom and even a sneek peek at Rocket League Xbox one edition which will feature the Warthog
+ THIS

[Stevedoggen]

I'm happy with more colours. As long as there is a title explaining the colour selected, and I don't need to screenshot --> MS Paint --> RGB Value check my armour colour choices, the more the merrier.

Now excuse me while I pray to dear god that the hammer has Reach and not Halo 4 impact physics.

The hammer was been built from the ground up same with the entirety of Griffball and it's not like Halo 4 so we can only wait and see
+ You can ground pound with the gravity hammer and do other new tricks and stuff

Also if that Blurred mythic is indeed the Fist of Rukt then goddamn! I hope it has a gravity magnet secondary fire so you can bring spartans towards you and then hammer them!

I also can't wait to see what the Forge team will incorporate in this update! last month was pretty minor for Forge since they where on Holiday break and couldn't fit in all their
finished features and items,

I'm still waiting for File Browser and Object Creator/Browser Forge + Warzone Items in forge
Ahh the future looks bright but the tunnel is long


Fun little sidenote I just found out the Fiesta gamemode banner uses this PIC

[Heatguts]

Wow gravity hammer oddball decent colors pick your own emblem colors oddball social playlists reminds me of Halo 3 on launch day.

EDIT: Honestly with the fist of rukt you could take out the lunge and add in the magnetic pull with a tad more range and keep it closer to balance.
