ABearInTheWoods Posted August 5, 2016 Boy I'd sure like to know what the Breakout population is these days. Oh boy, speaking of population - I made the mistake to use basic logic (including evidence/comparison with other most played games) on r/halo to show that H5's player population was terrible and likely hovering around 10-15k active players. And without addressing the information I offered, it just turned into me being labeled a 343 conspiracy theorist, what Bravo said must be gospel and that H5 has more players than Reach ever had, etc etc.... It is baffling to me. 3 Share this post Link to post

It is baffling to me. You can't expect the average /r/halo user to understand the difference between daily playlist population and monthly user (which can easily be boosted with free REQ packs, but saying that is already in "tinfoil territory" for 343 defenders). Especially Arena with the lower REQ payouts and fake social probably has abysmal population, could explain why people here run into the same to4 and experience poorly balanced teams all the time.

Devaneaux Posted August 5, 2016 I wonder wether matchmaking implenting like a tourney or scrim mode would be accepted by a good chunk of players? Like you have a Bo3 or a Bo5 or you can even create your own tourney with certain rules that others can join. Would be amazing I feel. Share this post Link to post

Devaneaux Posted August 5, 2016 That's how ranked should be. Nah, you shouldn't have to make people commit to a series against a particular team if they don't want to. You should still be able to play individual matches against different teams like we have now. Share this post Link to post
Cooper Posted August 5, 2016 I can't get over how unfathomable slow and clunky default h5 feels compared to evolved. Default feelings like babies' training wheels. Boggles my mind that someone can call themselves a competitive halo player and not want to drop default. Share this post Link to post
Cooper Posted August 5, 2016 I can't get away with playing evolved settings on my 55 plasma. I can't consistently hit shots Which is good because you shouldn't be able to lol. On default it makes little difference though because it's sooooo slow. Share this post Link to post
