> Big-time @Halo 5 coverage hitting @IGN next week. Campaign impressions & video. Multiplayer too. Stay tuned.

Thought I should let you guys know since we already know they’re not doing an IGN First for Halo 5. Here’s hoping that we finally get a look at Forge next week. Maybe a good amount gameplay of a new Warzone/Arena map?
Who knows, but all that matters is that we’re getting a lot of Halo 5 next week and hopefully we get a lot of good new gameplay and coverage as we get closer and closer to October. We’re entering Halo season again and I couldn’t be more excited.

Anyways, any other hopes for the upcoming coverage we’re about to see?

I want to see Arena. We’ve seen enough of Warzone for now.

No mention of Forge :frowning:

I’m just hoping it’s a surprise or something. I’m not really gonna bet 100% they’re gonna show it, but one can only hope.

I do not want to see any more Warzone. It better not be that.

I also want Forge info above anything else. Oh, and theatre/spectator deetz.

It’s IGN so I expect a lot repeated facts and more terrible journalist playing MP footage. You know, the kind where the journalists tries sniping across the map with a damn AR.

Yeah, but Ryan McCaffrey usually gives some good coverage when it comes to Halo. He covered a good amount of the Halo 2 Anniversary stuff last year with the MCC.

IGN is pretty good with their coverage of Halo, it just depends on what information they are allowed to speak about.

The only thing I care about in Warzone up to this point, is the Req. I want to see some Arena or Forge

I agree, I’ve seen enough Warzone I would like to see more Arena and Forge in action hopefully.

I just hope we get some forge news. For some reason I’m really excited to see whats new

Thank you. I love how Warzone looks, but I want to see more about Arena.

gameinformer mentioned in their article about the req system that theres some kind of news embargo that’s being lifted on September 28th

Can’t wait! :smiley:

Glad we’re getting more news…not a fan of these ambiguous dates though. What does “next week” mean anyway? Couldn’t they just say “Monday” or something so we actually know when to tune in?

What, and take away 6 potential red herrings that would provide them with page views and therefore revenue? Not on your life.

Maybe he thought next week would suffice and he didn’t expect fans to be frustrated with the lack of specifics. If someone tweets him asking for a specific date maybe he will reply.

Well , while I haven’t got the direct link, Josh Holmes tweeted that we will definitely see forge before halo 5 is released.

Excited to see more details on the way! Hopefully we’ll see forge soon
