Customs browser works very well...

Better than I anticipated, for sure. Me and two friend were doing a little custom, and we left it open in case someone wanted to take a look…

Before we knew it, we were in a 10-man lobby, playing a map I made that I never even dreamed of having that many people play. Ot was incredible. Of course, they started to trickle out over the next few games, but a couple stayed in as I cycled through all my completed maps I’ve made over the months.

What are your thoughts on the CG broswer? Any luck?

Haven’t tried it yet. But it sounds pretty good.

Maybe I should try it as well.

It’s worth it. I’ve also joined other games in progress, and seen all sorts of stuff.

Vehicle fiesta is top notch, in my opinion. Except oni/Hannibal scorpions spawn in way too much, same goes for air vehicles. Apart from that one problem, it’s awesome. I love it!

I joined a vehicle fiesta game with four people. Blew up and was sixteen two minutes later.

I had the exact same experience. Tons of people playing on my maps. Maps that have remained quiet and peaceful for months. Also great because it showed me where things needed to be adjusted.

Makes me wish I could play

its great but i wish you can earn rp and xp. :frowning:

I really liked it!

I suck big time in Arena type games, but custom games are a huge opportunity to improve…

yeah but since custom games is one of the best things about h5 you should still earn rp and xp, they should just put a cap if theyre worried about people farming.

I still think it shouldn’t happen, on a custom game people can manipulate the settings for the match, it wouldn’t be the “natural” halo game-mode, in which you can earn rewards for your effort. In a custom game on the other hand, you can mess around without worrying about rank, K/D, score, etc. There’s little effort to be used since there are not rewards for those who play to win.

Love the customs browser. There’s never a dull moment in a full lobby of 16 playing FFA Super Fiesta on Doubles maps.

When I hosted a game with my friends it was pretty neat. Joining one on the other hand was difficult. A game lobby would be marked with slots available, we’d join, and then we saw a 24 man fireteam and were stuck on the loading game bar.

Been loving it. Drop into BTB, KotH, and Fiesta games whenever possible, and for the most part its been absolutely fabulous. I’d love to see this in Halo 6 at launch, or at the very least in a short time frame. Halo 5’s forge was delayed a bit to iron out some issues and we got a wonderful tool in exchange for the brief’ish wait.

My god, if only we had this in Halo 3 or Reach…

Customs would’ve been unstoppable! But it’s great that 343 have added this, if it’s in at launch for Halo 6 I might buy it.

Out of curiosity, did any non-PC Halo have a custom games browser?

Ya it works good until after the game then the screen freezes or the map and mode gets reset back to stasis

My favorite thing out of the whole update tied with more Social Playlists. Haven’t played Custom Games like this since Reach.
