Halo 5 getting custom game browser (Both PC and Xbox)

Incan · September 03, 2016, 05:44:17 AM

Maybe this will mean PC players will be able to just play on some nice normal slayer servers and kind of be able to matchmake on PC.

I just wish the full matchmaking was on PC, but can't have everything.

True Turquoise · September 03, 2016, 05:55:06 AM

Yeah, they should just have their own matchmaking, but oh well, still good

BaconShelf · September 03, 2016, 06:15:43 AM

Only 11 months late

Ya know what?

I'm not fucking gonna complain about this, not any "this should have been in there months ago" i'm happy.

Customs Games browser on Xbox is perfect. Hasn't been done yet for the console. Glad it's there.

The new Mythic REQ pack is bullshit though

Zonda · September 04, 2016, 02:05:25 AM

Wait, like a file browser for gametypes or a server browser to find games to play on?

Either way p sweet tbh

Yeah, wait. As in host your own custom game servers for other people to find and join? That'd be fucking amazing.

Jono · September 04, 2016, 09:11:10 AM

343i sure does like to fix their games a year after they launched

Coco · September 04, 2016, 09:23:10 AM

Yeah, 343i a shit. They should've just waited until next year to release the game and sit on every other finished multiplayer aspect.

I was never even expecting this feature, but since it wasn't implemented 10 months ago, it's trash.

This is a warped way of thinking.

A custom games browser has never been added to console versions of Halo. This is a new addition, they aren't fixing the game with it, they are adding onto it.
How the hell are they fixing it by adding in something new?

Complain about no File share on console or other features not being fixed 10 months ago but THIS? No.

I know, Halo 4 was super eh and seeing Halo 5 gameplay makes me sad.

Regardless ill still play it if its free, and I do like the forge.

True Turquoise · September 05, 2016, 01:05:16 PM

Halo 5 is only worth it for the Arena if youre into that still

So a PC port is good, because you'll get customs

Ian · September 05, 2016, 04:19:38 PM

Halo 5 will meet the same end as soon as Halo 6 is announced. 343 is a cancerous company that will butcher their previous game or let it lay in the mud to die in order to push people to purchase their latest Halo title. As much as I hate Neo-Bungie they never did this. They were still supporting Halo 2 well after 3 launched and would have continued were it not for the original Xbox servers being shut down. As soon as Halo 4 was only months away, all content and updates for Reach stopped immediately, Halo 4 stopped getting updates as soon as the XB1 launched, and now MCC is their latest victim.

This is still a great feature but who are they marketing it too other than you guys? A small too-devoted fanbase, their attempt to satisfy the crowd they ignored is too little too late.

Isn't it a little bit too late to be adding a feature like this to the game? By the time it comes out this game is going to be dead due to other games coming out and then there's Halo 6 which is coming out in 2018. Yes the feature itself is nice but at this point I think 343 pissed off a lot of people due to how bare bones the game launched which resulted in them leaving.
