ChieftaiNZ Posted May 12, 2016 Can you buy those packs with reqs or only real money It was the MoR Preview pack. Everyone gets one. Gives you a couple Exp boosts and a couple of the 1 time use reqs. Quote Share this post Link to post
Forerunner55 Posted May 12, 2016 Can you buy those packs with reqs or only real money Both i think. 80k regs point or 20 bucks edit: my bad. i was mistaken Quote Share this post Link to post
ChieftaiNZ Posted May 12, 2016 Currently if you JIP a Infection game mid round you become a Zombie. Catch is, everyone is your team mate and you can't kill or be killed. Seems as though the MoR preview pack can't be opened atm. Don't care though, got my2 Phaeton Helios when I opened mine. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
Infinity Posted May 12, 2016 Its not healthy except that its a huge part of why Halo used to be so popular? Ok Insinuating that was the only thing that made Halo popular? Like I said, UGC is a good thing, it just needs to be handled the right way. Halo 3 offered all of those niche experiences as enticing weekend playlists that were different from the norm of standard matchmaking. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Cursed Lemon Posted May 12, 2016 Uh, when was the competitive aspect (whether actual tournament play or casual competition) of Halo ever...EVER its main draw? 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

No but you seem to have some conception UGC has hurt the game when historically that has NEVER been the case. Quote Share this post Link to post
Infinity Posted May 12, 2016 No but you seem to have some conception UGC has hurt the game when historically that has NEVER been the case. The way UGC/niche experiences is handled can hurt the game, that is my argument. UGC as an idea is good. Quote Share this post Link to post

Halo 3 offered all of those niche experiences as enticing weekend playlists that were different from the norm of standard matchmaking. Was Grifball not permanent? As well as multi team, snipers, team tactical, MLG, swat, MLG ffa, etc There were a lot of niche lists in h3. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Killmachine Posted May 12, 2016 The way UGC/niche experiences is handled can hurt the game, that is my argument. UGC as an idea is good. And I agree...but how has it hurt this game? If anything, the thing that has hurt the game has been lack of UGC, not tons of niche community modes. Quote Share this post Link to post

QuietMan Posted May 12, 2016 BUT GUYZ IT'S FREEEE, DON'T COMPLAIN /s To all those who down voted this comment, I upvoted it, because I paid $60 for a Halo game that still doesn't have a proper fucking oddball game type. Just cuz something is free doesn't make it good. Here we are more than half a year later and Halo 5 is just now barely approaching a decent value of $60. That's beside the fact I got burnt out on it months ago because of the terrible solo arena matchmaking experience. Forgive me for not boarding the hype train for the terribly unbalanced warzone bullshit. I loathe it. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post
SweetNSavery Posted May 12, 2016 User-generated content.But doesn't more UGC mean that the community is more involved with the game? Which means more players? And that those players are far happier? Quote Share this post Link to post
Igs cubanex Posted May 12, 2016 But doesn't more UGC mean that the community is more involved with the game? Which means more players? And that those players are far happier?We don't have the population to support normal playlist let alone niche ones Quote Share this post Link to post
QuietMan Posted May 12, 2016 I would have rather had no warzone at all and more/better arena maps, better arena balance, and the basic arena gametypes shipped with the $60 dollar price tag. inb4 all the warzone req junkies downvote the shit out of this. I would love a Halo 6 with no Warzone. maybe I am the only one. 8 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
Zeezbruh Posted May 12, 2016 UGC needs to be a bigger part of halo. There wont be a lack of content, really ever, if the community makes it 100x faster than 343. We need AI in Forge. I would have rather had no warzone at all and more/better arena maps, better arena balance, and the basic arena gametypes shipped with the $60 dollar price tag. inb4 all the warzone req junkies downvote the shit out of this. I would love a Halo 6 with no Warzone. maybe I am the only one. No offense, but so glad you don't make any decisions. Warzone is way more popular and is the way most FPS are heading. (Free content, big battles, use what you want, funds arena so it doesn't die (free stuff+hcs funding)). What your proposing would make sure Halo 6 is the least successful Halo. 3 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
arglactable Posted May 12, 2016 We don't have the population to support normal playlist let alone niche ones Well, yes. Ideally, the game would have supported the various niches from the start, so they would actually play the game. It seems more pointless the longer it takes to actually happen. We're going on 7 months after release for infection. I wonder how many people will actually bother to come back. Quote Share this post Link to post
FLuFFy Posted May 12, 2016 overall this update is great. Agreed, but the game is still a piece of shit. Also, why in the fuck is there autos, and power weapon bullshit in infection?!? 7 2 Quote Share this post Link to post
SweetNSavery Posted May 12, 2016 We don't have the population to support normal playlist let alone niche onesBut wasn't the decrease in population due to the fact that a lot of the UGC wasn't supported? Quote Share this post Link to post

To make you move and not sit and camp off spawn, you rather have pistol/br so any one with a non severed thumb can shit on you all game? 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

I will probably waste the 4 gigs on my xbizone's drive, but I am not letting myself get hyped. It will probably take 6 games to play Stasis in arena and by then I'll be furious.
