"These Guardians can police an entire solar system"
Can't even kill a few Spartans
I fail to see how governing an entire solar system is even that big of a threat. Humanity at this point IIRC is spread across the galaxy. Ooh, you can destroy 25~ solar systems if we say no.
The Covenant had the Orion Arm. Humans had not even a percentage of that. The galaxy is still mostly unexplored - so i'm sad she doesn't list any species we haven't seen yet in the last mission. Also lol the yonhet got mentioned before the jiralhanae.

Jump off bridges in megaton repeatedly.
Just save before you do.

Why would they ever bring back Paradiso. That map was universally despised.
They don't show any actual footage of a forge version so I duno if it got made or just on the list

Is it bad that the game's been out three days and I already have all the intel,most pf the skulls and 3/4ths of a solo legendary playthrough done?
Not really, it's not like the campaign is long as a Skyrim playthrough.
Three days
Also been rockin' warzone. I'm loving the new system. Just wish the warzone maps had more verticality, only got a ground pound kill once.
tbh if I bought the game I could probably get the intel, skulls, and finish Legendary in one day if I looked up a couple videos on where the stuff is.
yeah, they probably didn't factor much verticality in those maps because they're supposed to be large for vehicles. Also since they only have a couple of flying vehicles and they're both one pilot only.
Yeah.
I'm hoping the upcoming city map they've shown off a bit of will have a lot more vertical gameplay with towers and scaffolding and shit.
Headlong v2?
In one of the new episodes of the Sprint, they show when they were testin forge to remake some old BTB maps and one was headlong. Paradiso was also on the list they show, much to everyone's delight I'm sure.

The firelance is a random encounter in which a spaceship flies past you and explodes and drops it. There's a limit to it's ammo - what you get there and a small amount you get from Mothership Zeta
Oh yeah--I saw that explosion from the north. I was wondering what that was.
And yeah, something told me I wasn't gonna find ammo for it very easily. I'll use it only when I absolutely need to,
Oh yeah. Trapped terminals have a little wire/ antenna sticking up out of them and (IIRC) a frag grenade strapped to the back
Guess I'll keep an eye out... Can I disarm them?
I believe so, yes. Like a mine.

I tend to prefer victory for the team over doing good myself. I geberally put objectives before kills.

Also mole rats always spawn around the back of megaton.

Skyfall was better, but I liked it more than the other films by him.

Because whether somethibg is good or not is not an objective term but rather one down to personal preference?

If games get delayed, then people just complain the developer is incompetant because they want more time to make a better game.

Also, a few other questions:
What was that planet at the end with the MAC stations and the Infinity? We see Cortana's Guardian rising up (or just a Guardian). It can be Sanghelios because there appear to be Forerunner style markings on the planet. It can't be Genesis because why would the Infinity bring MAC platforms there...
And how did Chief, Locke, and crew make it to Sanghelios so fast from Genesis at the end of the game?
Why wpuld a covenant world have human defence platforms? It's obviously Earth. It's just cities being shut down.

DO NOT equip the sword near a gas leak
Also the deathclaw was a random encounter in which a deathclaw spawns fighting an Outcast squad.
Verb I've just remembered. Energy weapons (laser, plasma, one very special one located in the wasteland I won't spoil in case you find it) can be sold to the outcasts at theor base (Which I'll let you find) for a fuck ton of radiation meds, stims, caps or food. So even if you're not over keen on those weapons, keep thwm in your house until you find the base. They'll buy them for the same price regardless of condition.

I want to see it take a nice chunk out of the planet.
Remember the Forerunner machines that munched up large pieces of Earth? Something like that times 10.
Retriever Sentinels? Earth already got a taste of them a couple years back.
Yeah, those things.
I think the humans would be scared shitless if Cortana just fired a small percentage of the Guardians' hidden weaponry on a big city if the Retriever and New Phoenix (I believe that's what the Didact targeted in Halo 4) disasters are still fresh in their minds.
Yeah. Guardians are bigger than most UNSC ships ( a frigate is about 300m), they be fucking up everything.

Let's also not forget that colossal damn cliffhanger where Earth falls completely under Cortana's control in about 30 seconds.
This ain't even Covenant invasion or Flood tier. She can access just about any communications technology that exists and shut down the entire planet in one shot.
There's gonna be some fucking serious magic out of a hat bologna to even try and fight that.
Seems like 343 took too big of a jump there.
It's just a big EMP. We've seen the forerunners do more with less. My guess is that the E3 2013 trailer set o the Ark is actually going to happen in Halo 6, and that's when we find Mendicant Bias. In that trailer, John has the exact same visor cracks as he does after REQing locke. Plus, the UNSC has bases on the Ark and the portal is functional again thanks to Olympia Vale's team in 2555.

Pretty much nothing. Contact would be nearly impossible for intelligent life ((sapient and non sapient) which doesn't exist in our stellar neighbourhood), and microbisl life probably wouldn't change the lives of most people.

With an EMP attack that can fuck up entire planets, that's pretty good insurance. Seem to be able to mess with gravity, too.
Forerunner infantry had weapons that could destroy continents. What do you think a 1.4km long war machine is gonna do?

No buildup and no time to dwell on the fact that literally the most powerful non-Swords Sangheili is dead.
And his army wasn't in disarray when he died, it was still super organized. Almost took over Vadam Keep
Speaking of Jul, what the hell has Celine Dion (or whatever that Rebel Elite's name is) been doing since escalation?
Sali 'Nyon He's in the current story arc. He got imprisoned on Breath of Annihiliation but got free in the crash, so he's doing whatever he's doing right now.

Eh. His army has been on the verge for a while now. It was beginning to break a while ago. But yeah, the remnants will now go join other groups and continue fighting.

I think a certain fight in Halo 5 really gives a good feel of how heavy MJOLNIR is.

The main problem with Halo 5 is that there's too much going on in a short amount of time, and nothing is given a chance to settle before you're whisked away to something else.
We have three storylines; Sangheili Civil War, Hunting Blue Team and Blue Team's stuff. The first two mesh fairly well with each other, but Blue Team feels largely separate from all that.
Personally, I think the game would have been better if it had been set entirely from the perspective of Osiris (same amount of missions, but all to do with Osiris). If we count Meridian as one big Blue Team-length mission and same for Sanghelios, then we have about 8 fairly long missions. I think this would be time enough to somewhat adequetly cover the hunt for blue team and the Civil War, and have the two teams meet up at the very end. Because I think having two storylines would mean a lot more time spent on important things.
I mean, Jul 'Mdama is dead. We've had two books, an entire comic series, Halo 4 and Spartan Ops trying to kill this guy and he just gets offed in the first mission. In the same cutscene that he's introduced. No buildup and no time to dwell on the fact that literally the most powerful non-Swords Sangheili is dead.

One thing that doesn't make sense. At the end of the Blue Team mission Infinity control says they've already dispatched a team to Meridian to "handle" Cortana. How the fuck do they even know she's there? Unless they were lying and just said it literally after Chief said he's going there.
You do know why they got Halsey, right?
