Halo 5 Infinity's Armory Patch Notes

[Fishy]

With the launch of the new January update, 343 has release many new things to the game as well as a bunch of improvements. Some of these were definite needs, some of them are options that should've been there in the first place, at least in my opinion. But I guess it's better late than never! Take a look at all these wonderful things that 343 has brought back and brought in:

 

Multiplayer:

 

New Arena map Riptide added

New Warzone Assault map Urban added

Over 50 new REQs including weapons, armor, emblems, and more have been added

Modified color of Blue Team in multiplayer to improve Red vs Blue balance

Increased Warzone weapon despawn time from 5 seconds to 20 seconds

Fixed exploits on Overgrowth that allowed players to get out of normal map boundaries

Fixed map holes on Recurve, Basin, and Deadlock

Fixed issues with Trident that allowed players to shoot through certain walls
