Yep, it's called research. Also, it's only online because of the dedicated servers. So you don't lag out and you don't lose your progress. More of a safety belt than a promotion.

Due to site reasons and to not crash the site, I will instead give out an open link to everyone for viewing purposes of the entire book of UNSC Warlord, 1, 2, and 3. This also helps with loading times as each book is at least 50MB a piece. Anyways, here you all go... Enjoy the hard copies! UNSC Warlord Book 1: Sovereign https://docs.google.com/document/d/11fW80uCdmcy3rmdzQRmhOWb83B0zn_3ddDV5uT_hRVw/edit?usp=sharing UNSC Warlord Book 2: Odds and Ends https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QkuNvg8aq4rcosjWI7Cl6D-IiVAbME0r6FzjcxYLxuo/edit?usp=sharing UNSC Warlord Book 3: Lan Chorus https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yN63XG4QlXk6J2Sm-4PyV9wDBfVKbtob5Ryo917_BQw/edit?usp=sharing and for the credit after scene of Book 3... Here you guy's go:

Yes it does.

Or you can just buy Gold and get 2 more tiers of being chanced with a Legendary REQ. It'll take longer to unlock everything, but that's his fault. Not ours. I've already done t hat strategy myself and I only unlock Ultra Rare or Legendary. But just let him buy what he wants.

I think the SPNKR Rocket Launcher color scheme changes depending on which team is holding it... Seeing as it was red in the hands of a red, but that's my guess. We also knew about the city map in one of the pre-release videos, they just decided now is the time to release it. Also, there are more maps than City, Overgrowth, and the BTB map. We just don't get to see them, because you know... It's a teaser. SMG with recon sight? What the hell makes it different from the regular SMG? I don't think Duelist Hunter's are new bosses. I think they're just literally different names for them as they are on all the other maps. Stormbreak has Serpent, Escape from A.R.C. has Remnant, and Apex 7 has Hunter Elder's... They're not really much different from each other besides location. They're just regular Hunter's. And that's not a new BTB map as much as it looks like Overgrowth. However, there are new BTB maps as well.. Like Burial Mounds and Avalanche... Maybe?

If you're playing Halo 5 for the REQ points, you're not playing Halo 5 to play Halo 5. You're playing for a system. Also, you'll get your REQ problems in time. I had the problem happen to me before, but I got it then next time I got on. It's pretty much your internet that's causing the problems.

Nothing to do with 60 FPS as the texture is the same as Halo 4, it's just the type of texture 343 is using on the BLAM! engine. If they ran a different engine and built from scrap, then yeah. Maybe it would look nicer.

Welcome to the forums, Edward. Here is a link for your questions: http://343industries.org/rules

~Chapter 23: Finish~ Ash watched as Junior and Joseph were eliminated by the Stratego within seconds. Marines and ODSTs ran in to assist, but were killed by the two soldiers that remained. The team had to move quick, they knew if they eliminated those soldiers, the Stratego would just bring in more. If they didn’t, they’d get killed bringing down the Stratego. There was no other options. They were in a tough situation right now, one they wouldn’t win but they wouldn’t lose. Magnus was at the face of the Night right now, his bullets did no harm to it. Only the armor. Ash watched as the knight knocked the weapon out of his hand, then use the incineration cannon to dispose of him and everything he had. Runner ran over to Ash and got behind the cover where she was hiding. Tears streamed down her face, the same thought was in her mind as it was Ash’s. They were going to die. They knew there was no other way. Ash looked Runner in her eyes, “It’s just you and me now. Everyone else is dead. Archangel, Anne, Jackson... They’re dead. I know we both will meet our fate here soon. But let’s not go down without a fight, see if we can save this ship even if we can’t save ourselves.” Ash forced a smile on her face. “A..Alright. I..Guess we can do that.” Runner looked at her with hope, “I wish things went differently. I wish I would’ve got to know you better.” Ash looked at Runner, in attempt to keep tears from rolling down her eyes. “Here, take this. I’ll be right behind you.” Ash handed her a shotgun. “If it doesn’t work, I’ll be behind you to do the rest. I promise.” Ash gave her a pat on the back. As Runner ran towards the Knight, Ash pulled the pin off one of the grenades on Runner’s belt. She stood back, a tear rolled down the cheek of her left eye. “Ash?” Runner called out, terror in her voice. “Ash!?” Runner was face to face with the Knight Stratego. It was too late to go anywhere, the Knight went to swing. The grenade exploded, as well did the others. Blowing the Knight Stratego to bits. Leaving the two Soldiers. Ash wiped the tears from her face and stood up with the pistol Magnus had given her. She made sure it was ready, and that these two Prometheans would be the end. --------------------------------------------- Jackson ran up to Verite. Sword in hand, he swung while Verite blocked. Verite swung while he blocked. This battle would go on for awhile, unless they stepped things up. Either way, the timer on the bomb kept ticking. “Y’know, for an Elite. You’re pretty good. I’ve killed about as many of your kind as much as you use grunt’s for cannon fodder.” Jackson smirked at the Elite. Verite grunted in hatred, “I’ve killed many of your kind as well. With my hand, and in the destruction of your planets.” Jackson didn’t like that response. He unleashed the anger in him with the movement of his swings. Verite hated this demon, his anger was triggered more by the fact that he could have killed him, but decided against it. The damn demon was supposed to just die and rot in the wasteland of the Brute’s. “Not bad yourself, but you still got what’s coming for you.” Jackson taunted the Elite. “You’ll see!” Verite swung his sword as Jackson blocked it, then kicked the demon in the chest, he swung his sword again. Removing Jackson’s arm with a clean swipe. Jackson stared at the Elite, hatred in his eyes. “You cheated. That is not fair.” “I will determine what is fair and what is not fair, demon. Now you will die an undesiring and unrespectful death. You’ll have what’s coming to you.” Verite went to swing, but Jackson jumped out of the way. “Well, all I needed to do was buy myself some time.” Verite seemed confused at what Jackson was saying. “This was supposed to be a round trip, but it seems my time has come to an end.” Verite just stared at him, confused... Wait. The bomb. Verite screamed right before it detonated, which is exactly what the last thing Jackson wanted to hear. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ash walked up towards the Soldier’s. Weapon at the ready, the two Soldiers stared at her with their weapons lowered. “Human!” As Ash went to quickdraw, she was stopped. Penetrated by a hot, warm, sharp object. “Ughnuhuhhuh...” Ash couldn’t move, it didn’t feel right. What happened? “You think you could just run away, come back, blow up one of my ships, and then think you could leave? Well I’ll have you know I do not take this sort of behavior in an acceptable manner. Your death is just a matter of the correlation. Soon will be your ship and the rest of your friends.” Lan Chorus said in a hasty matter, pure hatred rushed through him as he drug the sword out of Ash and through her on the ground. She watched as more Elite’s came in and killed the Soldiers and pushed for the command deck. Ash laid there in a pool of her own blood. Waiting for the last seconds to pass... ------------------ Ash opened her eyes. A bright light was in her field of vision as were three other people standing over her, two of them were in a lab coat one was in an ONI Jacket. “The simulation is incomplete, and she has failed her objective. What makes you think she’s worthy of joining our Spartan team, Doctor Halsey?” Must have been the ONI Jacket guy. “The simulation is meant for them to fail, but she has by far made it even further than most Spartan’s have. For the exception of a few of them, regarding Blue and Red team. I think she’ll fit in nicely.” Halsey responded. “But what if she fails like she did her objective? We’ve had other Spartan’s make it as far as her, such as T-031 Jackson and S-034 Archangel, but they were a loss on the frontlines a couple days after.” The ONI seemed like he wanted to discard of her into the waste can. “It’s alright, Thomas. This one is special. I know she’ll make it far. You just have to trust me. I’ll work with her, and hopefully she can be one of the best soldiers out there you’ll need her to be.” “Very well, do what you must. We believe the Covenant are headed to Reach within the next few days. I hope she’ll be ready by then.” The door slammed shut and everyone left, the lights went out leaving her in the dark. “It... It was all a simulation...” Ash cried. ~End of Chapter 23~ ~Book 3: Complete~

This has been a common troll thing that everyone is doing when they're bored. Although I wouldn't call it being a troll as I would just call it being a jerk to friendly players.

What? Wargames from Halo 4 is literally Warzone and Arena in Halo 5. Also for team snipers... It's possible on the forged maps, Just highly unlikely, because team snipers is a hated and unpopular playlist. I believe, if I remember correctly, 343 tried it in Halo 4... And was immediately removed the following week due to popularity. So no, team snipers is not needed.

You don't get placed in ranks where you feel you do good in, you get placed in playlists you would have competition in.Use it to your advantage to get better instead of refusing to advance forward. FFA is entirely different than Team Slayer. I do not see how that statement is relevant.

Yes, your rewards will be deposited in your account. 343 has been monitoring accounts/games and giving people the XP and RP they didn't obtain.

I have not quit Halo 5, nor have I said such, I have only said at the rate 343 is fixing their game, it's pushing me in the direction of not looking forward to Halo Wars 2 or Halo 6. Not reasonable to place such an accusation. I only quit HTA. As for people wanting to play it, that is the lesser population. At most 10%, but that's still a pretty small number. To be honest, a PvE in Halo would be a mess. Sure, Firefight was fun. But we have Warzone. Which is pretty much stronghold's with cores. Warzone Assault is literally Invasion, but with Spartan vs Spartan (and 3 marines) I'm not saying it's an all bad idea, I'm just saying the popularity is small and that would make a bad outcome. Sorta like how Halo: Reach had co-op campaign matchmaking. Which was messy and full of trolls. If 343 were to implement it, without making a mess full of bugs (Enough ants to take your whole fridge) then I wouldn't mind it, as long as it wasn't also for REQ boosting and had a set limit of REQ's. About as much as you get from BTB or Warzone Assault.

What? No, a casual place for people who don't wanna be tryhards would be in an unranked playlist. Which is exactly what we'll be getting here soon. You still don't make PVE very appealing. It's just nasty and boring. Trust me, fighting AI's over and over again would get so boring.

I think that anything firefight related should die. Not only that, but 343 have done a terrible job at their Warzone maps anyways. Adding even ANOTHER map on the 3 maps, adding 9 in total, would be completely ridiculous. 343 needs to work on what's already there and what needs to be fixed and improved. Not adding something entirely new to the game, slowing down progress and production of a better game.

Wheelmans are assists.

I'm sorry, could you please explain further? All I can interpret is you asking them to not make them blue team blue...

I would say wait and see if it's a connection issue with the servers from your ISP, or if it's just the Halo 5 servers down.

I like the Covenant in the game more, and now that even Jackals speak English. However, Prometheans are the one's I like to fight most. They're a lot more stupid, plus better assassinations. All together though, I found the fight against to be the best of them.
