Updates on this week in Halo at 343 - Happy Birthday to Halo 2! - Mister Chief <3 - Halo 15th Anniversary teaser - Your regular dose of community awesomenessMy top picks from the update
> Yesterday I was a few minutes late and walked in to see the first item on the screen as “Frankie wants everything SWAT and wants permanent Overshields for himself.”
> Battle on some of your favorite Halo: Combat Evolved maps re-imagined in Halo 5 thanks to Forge and a number of super talented community builders! I’ve seen Uny working on these maps and they look fantastic. I also know there’s excitement building externally and I want to manage your expectations by clarifying that this is Halo 5 gameplay on sweet Forge re-creations of classic maps with the Halo: CE pistol as the starting weapon.
Here’s a secret, no one is excited for this ^. We thought we were going to get a classic playlist, not a CE themed H5 playlist.

> I looks and the picture called radar blips and its looks different then the Halo 5 radar. Did they redone it? Even better made it go back 25M?
It’s a modified picture, you’re looking too much into it.

> They keep using the word soon. I’d rather they just give it to us straight and say “we plan on a new update on X date”. Or very close to it anyway.
They tried that with MCC and it only made the backlash worse.
I find the following line to be rather interesting:
"
FREE STUFF!
What kind of birthday party would it be without goodie bags for attendees!? I don’t want to spoil the surprise but I think you’ll dig it."
This either hints at a new update, or possibly just the custom games browser, 343 should’ve learned to stop beating around the bush by now.

343 should know better than to screw us with another over priced Req pack, the Greatest Hits pack was worth no more than 50k RP and maybe $5 but they just got greedy. If they know what’s good for H5’s population (they don’t btw) they’ll release the update that has the custom game browser.

Or, maybe they made the original Mark V and is giving us it. But probably unlikely but I hope for it.
