What is this I hear about you have to buy Req packs in order to unlock stuff? Where is this option, I didn’t even know you could buy Req packs!? I have everything unlocked and the only money I’ve spend was purchasing the game. Some people most be very unlucky having to buy something I have revived for free. I’m sorry to hear that 343 has forced people to buy something that’s free. It’s just a shame, how could 343 do this to “us”
When you go to buy a REQ using in game REQ points you also have the option to pay using real money or you can buy a package of a bunch of gold packs all for real money… Spending money is completely optional though because you earn REQ points from just playing the game.
I bought req packs with money because I have a good job with disposal income I choose to spend on Halo from time to time… always have and probably always will.
Hey OP, here is some info on the REQ system in halo 5 that you might find helpful
