Welcome all to the 28th 343i Weekly Community Poll! Last week I asked what you thought about the possibility of 343 making a Halo Wars 2. Here are the results from that poll. On to this week's poll! With Halo 5 news right around the corner along with E3, many people feel like they know exactly what Halo 5 needs to be what Halo 4 couldn't. Some say armor abilities should stay similar to the way there were utilized in Halo: Reach and Halo 4, others say Halo 5 should follow a Halo 3 approach with a one time deploy equipment piece. Thus the root of this week's poll, Should Halo 5 use armor abilities or equipment pieces? Leave your thoughts and vote in the comments below Voting Deadline: 4-21-14 @ 6:00 AM EST Thanks for taking the time to participate in this week's poll, See y'all next week! Have a question, complaint, or suggestion pertaining to the poll? Message me.

Deadline extended! Dead Line: 4-21-14 @ 6:00 AM EST

Hate to see you leave Zag, you've been a very thoughtful member, I remember you helping me back when I was just a green member, it meant a lot to me and I haven't forgotten. I still don't know you as we'll as I'd like to, but I'll really miss seeing you around. Hope everything works out, Good Luck buddy!

Frank Savage confirms work is being made towards giving the Xbox One an Xbox 360 game emulator. In a response to someone in the audience at Microsoft's Build developer conference, Frank Savage confirmed plans being made that would allow users to play their 360 games on Xbox One. AUDIENCE MEMBER: "Are there plans for an Xbox 360 emulator on Xbox One?" SAVAGE: "There are, but we’re not done thinking them through yet, unfortunately. It turns out to be hard to emulate the PowerPC stuff on the X86 stuff. So there’s nothing to announce, but I would love to see it myself." How long will we have to wait for this functionality? We don't know just yet, but seeing as this was one of the many complaints surrounding the Xbox One, its good to know work is being made towards this 'problem.' This is good news for gamers who want to enjoy both Xbox One titles and Xbox 360 Titles without the hassle of switching out consoles. Will the ability to play your Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One be enough to decide your purchase? Let us know in the comments below. SOURCE:KOTAKU View full article

Welcome all to the 27th 343i Weekly Community Poll! Last week the poll asked you who your favorite Forerunner enemy was, (until Bnus pointed out the only 'Forerunner' enemy in Halo 4 was the Didact) so last week's poll was actually edited minutes after the original posting to ask who your favorite Forerunner/Promethean enemy was. The answer? Click the Spoiler to find out: This week's question has to do with the famed RTS game, Halo Wars! I know there was a lot of speculation about Halo Wars 2 up until Halo: Spartan Assault was launched, and well, I think its about time to revive that speculation. I present this week's community poll, Should there be a Halo Wars 2? Leave your thoughts and vote in the comments below. Voting Deadline: April 14, @ 6:00 AM EST Thank you all for taking the time to partake in this week's poll, See y'all next week! Have a question, complaint, or suggestion pertaining to the poll? Message me.

It sounds to me like you're more upset with the players you're being paired up with in matchmaking more so than the actual game mechanics that are used in the gametypes themselves. You're angry because your teammates are "dummie halo idiots" that aren't very good at the game, team-kill, and drop out. You do realize that this is not isolated to these two playlists, right? Furthermore, this is not a problem isolated to the Halo franchise. This is a problem within the gaming community itself. This problem exists throughout every game that has ever had online multiplayer, and will continue on to every future game that has online multiplayer. The reason being, that 343 Industrustries (along with every other video-game company out there) does not limit the games they make to be sold only to the people that are good at the game, nor should they. The game is shipped out world wide and whoever has $60, Internet, XBL Gold, and a clean slate has every right to matchmaking as you do. Now, I already said that this problem isn't going anywhere, but here are some steps you can take to improve who you're matched up with. -Set your Halo: Reach Pysche Profile to search for players that are 'good teammates.' -When you join a match that has good players, go to their profile and choose the option to prefer pairing up with that player in the future. -Use gaming communities (like this one) to find people you can add to your friends list and play games with. -Join a clan.

Interesting descriptions for the change of weapons from Halo to Halo: Reach. Although I do think you should specify these descriptions as Halo: Reach weapons. Also I think you mean NoobTube

I don't know you incredibly well Shock, definitely not as much as I'd like to, but I saw you around enough and read enough of your posts to know you were an outstanding member. An excellent contributor to the community, you even got yourself a spot on the Top 15. I'll miss seeing you around the forums, but I do understand, we all have matters we have to handle in the real world, I hope nothing but the best for you, and hope to see you again one day.

Welcome back! Hope to see you active once more, maybe even a community event or two.

I hope Caboose gets hung.

I'm still not convinced our "Next Halo journey" was Halo 5. From everything I've read, I think that its likely Halo 2 Anniversary ships this year, with the means to access a Halo 5 beta. This would be a great move in my opinion, not only are you giving us Halo 2 in HD, you'd be perfecting Halo 5 with a beta, which is something Halo 4 definitely could've benefited from.

Read the OP, it has the rules and the roles of the game there. But a moderator is just a civilian whose vote counts twice.
