Just noticed the HCS pack is back, but it is unclear for how long. I don’t see announcements anywhere talking about it, but I’d like to grind for REQ points before it disappears. Anybody know when that might happen?

I thought that this was another one of those things that shows up as an error and goes away if you restart it, but I just booted up my game and I saw it, too. This is…interesting.

Yeah, that’s why I signed out and back in again. Still there!
FYI if you have everything and you buy it (with RP of course), you get 5 rare Arena XP boosts.
I noticed it as well. I’m assuming it’s for the upcoming HCS Atlanta event.

Except I “bought” these instead of getting the HCS Contender Red pistol skin unlocked…
Update: Now it’s showing it as unlocked…
Im a bit new to Halo 5 but what is HCS pack?

I bought it with req points. I knew I’d get boosts or points back because I already have everything, but I was curious exactly what I’d get.

Halo Championship Series armor and weapon skins. Kinda cool if you have 80,000rp, but not worthy of cash in my opinion.
You can buy them with REQ points now!?!? Good thing I saved up my 500k+ points! Time to get a few of the HCS reqs i’m missing!! WOO!!

It is a limited time offering Req Pack that offers a combination of 5 different customization skins/armor set that are HCS branded, this is possibly because of Halo’s upcoming eSports competition known as the Halo Contender Series that the pack is named after. The items are: HCS White skins for AR/BR/Magnum, HCS Blue skins for AR/BR/Magnum, HCS Red skins for AR/BR/Magnum, and the Athlon Champion Armor and Helmet. Though I am unsure about the packs description of it being available for only 72 hours (3 days) as it is the 2015 description. Also, all HCS skins and the armor set are Legendary rarity, and if you own almost all items to the point that the HCS pack will have less than 5 HCS items it will fill in the remaining spots with other emblems, skins, armors, and helmets of Ultra Rare rarity.
