Theme of the update should be Lipstick on a Pig.
Did 343 fix any of the countless issues related to the game play mechanics, the lobby UI, etc. Did they fix the spawn killing in SWAT or any of the 500+ replies on how multiplayer is broken? Nope, nada, none of this. Oh but wait, they fixed the friend sorting bug so friends appear in alphabetical order. Whoa, at least we now know where all the revenue from Req Point purchases have gone.
You’re going to get hate because a lot of foolish people think this game is godsend. I’m not one of them, I’m mature enough to see flaws with the game. 
Fixing the warzone assault exploit. That’s all I really cared about.

Yup. im so happy for that. we know that for sure because in the text theres this little saying.
“Oh, and while we’re talking playlists, the Cartographer’s Gift update will indeed include a Warzone Assault update to ensure players do things in the right order.”
Not to mention that we’re only getting 1 new weapon, with 4 variants. And what appears to be a set of new BR variants.
Woo… Where’s the CE pistol? The Gravity Hammer? Infection, Oddball, etc?
What about PvE Warzone? There’s massive demand for it, yet they’ve yet to even acknowledge it, despite saying they would if interest was shown.
Yeah, we’re getting social playlists, but those should’ve been in from the beginning, along with Forge.

I’d imagine something like making a PvE Warzone would take a bit more time then just a month’s work. They would need to basically change it around so either both Spartan teams are now one joint team, or just turn off the Spartan PvP aspect so that the teams are working in effort but still trying to one-up the other team.
They would also need to add in a ton more drop points for mobs. It should feel like an absolute Armada is dropping in around the Warzone level and Spartans should be hard pressed to hold points, take points and also take down enemy commander’s.
I really hope to RNGsama that 343i is working on this in the background and we’ll hear about it later. If not, I’ll just step back into Halo: Reach’s Firefight once that goes BC.

I understand that, but why can’t they AT LEAST address the people asking for it?
They’re too busy making up for the lost ground that comes with releasing an unfinished game.

You’re probably right about it taking a decent amount of time. I’m using hoping forge will at some point let us spawn AI so we can make our own PvE modes. And yeah, I’m ready to hop back on Reach for some FF too.

They actually did mention PVE
You know what?
Right now 343i is growing Halo 5 with the Comunity,be a part of it with constructive critics,not stupid one’s like posting a thread wehre ppl state 5 most hated thing’s(and really the most hated are Quiters…fehh) and rename it.
I also wrote in there,and missing shot’s or getting shot’s from behind is nothing they can fix =(
Really mate don’t let yourself look like MR:Whinealot be a bit more constructive they are listening and asking for good feedback!
The biggest complaint ive read in this forum is the missing Social playlist,and guess what it’s part of the next update!

Where? I didn’t see any mentioning of it in the Waypoint update.
Contary to public belief a games glitches cannot be wily nily changed juat like that. The sarzone assault glitch is easy you just put a shield on the door or a big box in the way until the first point is captured something like a UI change is a much bigger job together with microsofts rigorous tests before they will allow anything thing be released onto thier network and you have to wait for things to be fixed. Im sure they are aware of all complaints posted on the forums and will address the ones that they can fix and that massivly affect the game.
People complained about
Point being is that you still brought a game with a lack of features on purpose, by simple logic that means that you are willing to be patient for these new features to arrive, otherwise you wouldn’t have brought the game in the first place.
Don’t get me wrong there’s still a lot of stuff I still want to be added like infection, race and king of the hill but complaining about it doesn’t accomplish anything, requesting however does. Poll posts are really effective at showing 343 what we want and 343 have said themselves that they have listened to our complaints.
One thing I will accept is that 343 do need to improve there communication. They could at least release a list of our requests that they are planning about adding.

I doubt they will as if they put something on a list and end up not being able to implement the chnage then i can only imagine the backlash
Where 343 skrewed up was only having 1 open beta.

Yes ideally we would have wanted theses features in from the start but 343 didn’t make you buy the game, if you brought the game knowing theses features wouldn’t be in it then that’s your fault, if you brought the game and didn’t realise theses features weren’t in it its still your fault for not doing enough research.

We’re complaining cause this should have been in the game day 1, this ins’t an early acess game. Plus 1 warzone map with the same garage and home bases, 1 Plaza remix (mehh) and a basic file browser is not something that’s got me jumping in excitement, aside from forging slayer maps (cause no infection -_-).

Too right.
How is this STILL broken.

Just because I purchase a product doesn’t mean my right to give criticism immediately ends. Users complained about those missing items and others because they were features present in previous titles but not present in the release build of the game and “we’ll fix it later” is a weak salve to a burned consumer. To their credit 343i is taking steps to address some of these criticisms but it’s too early to tell how the community at large will react next month or into the new year.
