XBX1 Halo 5: Guardians

Not sure about the multi-player rankings - can't seem to go up or down too easily. And please tell me they're bringing out more maps soon?!

Once you are ranked, you only go up or down within that rank, i.e. if you're Gold 1, you can get up to Gold 6, but can't go to Platinum, nor can you drop down to silver.

To increase your ranking you must win matches, individual performance means nothing.

And I think each month or so they reset the rankings and you 'qualify' again.

Yes more maps are coming, and they're free.

The lack of game modes is killing my enjoyment for the MP, I need my doubles/objective playlists.

Awesome, thanks for clarifying. Where's the best place for finding out all the news about the game?

Well this is more info on the matchmaking...https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/enter-the-arena

That site has a lot more info as well.

The warzone is actually really fun I hadn't taken any notice of it before but had a go at it today. I was getting hooked very quickly

Warzone needs some fixing.

Warzone needs some fixing.

What in particular?

 

[andrew_]

Warzone is probably the best part of the game? It feels like a mix of halo and planetside 2.

Game finally arrived. Annoyed that the campaign isn't co-op.

You can co-op?

Can you? Thought someone said earlier in here that it's been removed.

No split screen is not in, but the campaign with the squads is built for co-op. Was playing co-op last night

Offline?

 

[Ant_]

Offline?

What? No split-screen so how can you co-op offline?

Leave me alone, it's early.

 

[andrew_]

Up to 4 player co-op online is available, local splitscreen is gone.

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Not having split-screen co-op is a massive mistake, it's what made the earlier Halo's. Playing with your brothers and mates, and against each other with 4-player multiplayer.

343 have stuffed up.

 

[The Big Sauce]

No splitscreen co-op is the biggest disappointment about this game looking at it from afar.

I like that pretty much everything else has been positive, apart from a mixed reaction to the MGS2 Raiden/Locke move 343 pulled with the campaign.

FFA is not good.

 

[Hawks92]

Split screen wasn't included because they couldn't incorporate it at 60 FPS.

Split screen wasn't included because they couldn't incorporate it at 60 FPS.

Other games have been able to downgrade the graphics/FPS to make it work in splitscreen. It's a joke that it isn't in H5 in any capacity (I don't think LAN is included either).

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

Yep it's quite pathetic. They're just making excuses to try and make peace with fans of the games.

too crowded

The most embarrassing death has to be when you slip in behind the enemy in warzone to capture a base only to be killed by the marines
