I should really look for a cheap Xbox one now shouldn't I...
Base models are going for $279 now, so preowned ones should be even cheaper than that.
Is the Firefight update tomorrow or next week?

some misinformation in the video though,
[quote]To clarify some items from that video that might confuse folks.
Warzone Firefight is still 8 players.
The Wasp is not a Warzone Firefight exclusive.
The 3 new maps in the Warzone Firefight update include one for Warzone (also playable in Warzone Firefight), one for Warzone Assault and one for Arena[/quote]
So the Wasp is just a single person Hornet?
yes, basically making it less powerful then the Hornet
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50572440]So the Wasp is just a single person Hornet?[/QUOTE]
Way I understand it is it's a little faster and got a little less health. More of a zip in, get some shots off, and get out kind of thing.
Firefight is out on the 29th

So Tidal is basically the Island from the Silent Cartographer? Also is that Warden Eternals brother?
[QUOTE=death2sarge;50575201]So Tidal is basically the Island from the Silent Cartographer?[/QUOTE]
They don't look similar at all. For one thing the island in Halo 1 has a beach all around it.
H5 is free from WZFF to 5th of July

What?
Like Games with Gold free or Free for all?
[editline]23rd June 2016[/editline]

On another note, Project Cartographer (the H2Vista online patch) is the most fun I've had online since the heyday of Reach.

Okay figured it out. Halo 5 will be F2P from the update to the date above. It will [i]not[/i] be free to keep, and you'll need to pay half price to keep the game after the promo is over.
Basically the same they did with Sunset Overdrive. I really should pick that up some time.
I wonder how well Halo 5 will benefit from this. How much will it cost, £20?
I think 20 quid is a pretty decent price for Multiplayer and Firefight.
Not like games for Gold, it's free access until July 5th. After the 5th if you dont own it you cant play.

I can't wait for SPV3 Part 1 to release tomorrow! Watched him play POA in live stream, it was magical. I spent 4 hours messing around in Silent Cartographer SPV3, and didn't get half way through the map.
another HW2 beta coming closer to release, both X-Box and Windows 10

I played through Pillar of Autumn and the first little bit of Halo, not bad. I felt like POA went on too long, but I understand what they were trying to do, the gravity malfunctioning once and a while brought from verity to combat, and I liked the gravity grenades.
They put some lore into it too, you can find Data pads, terminals and little things like that (The first Terminal on Halo is in the same spot as Halo 1 Anniversary :v:). They're all text based.
Lovely...

Funny story, a Pelican was supposed to drop off a Mantis during the fight at the gravity pad on the Truth and Reconciliation, then there would be a huge amount of waves of enemies. We scrapped that pretty early on. I remember testing it and it just being a huge pain in the arse. (Medusa is your friend)
What I dislike about SVP3 is the amount of detail in the grass textures that causes the detail on the enemies to sorta get washed out so it's kinda hard to aim at the enemies from time to time. (I blame the lighting!)
Yeah that amount of detail in the grass doesn't quite look right, especially considering there's no actual vegetation to go with it
I like the little alien dog things on the Halo.

I was upset you couldn't ride them like a Chocobo like in Halo 1999.
Did someone who was colourblind do the grass? I'm colourblind myself so I've learned the hard way that grass can be [I]too[/I] green. It looks way too saturated and tacky.

I told Masterz1337 about the environment contrast issues a couple weeks ago, kinda bummed that it wasn't changed for release.
