Memories of Reach - Halo Livestream Discussion


Join us live from 343 Industries at 3 p.m. PDT, as we reveal an exclusive first-look at Halo 5: Guardians’ next update: Memories of Reach – featuring a new Arena map, tons of new REQs, and Infection game mode. Plus, we’ll share the latest Halo news, feature community clips and Forge creations, get insider info from special guests, and give you a sneak peek at some future Halo 5: Guardians content.

Good stuff. Looking forward to it!

If possible, I’d appreciate more detail on the matchmaking preferences (team size matching? ping range? override loose “social” playlist settings? placement matches? etc.).

Any bug and stability fixes - Forge? REQ system? etc.

Will we see Super Fiesta available in custom games?

As a side note, can you please make sure that you turn off your Xbox Live notifications before starting the stream? Thanks.

Should be good! Here’s hoping there are no audio issues like in the previous livestream.

I just want to see Jorge’s chaingun in action :slight_smile:

Awwww here it goes. HALO HYPE! So y’all got notifications turned off this time right? :wink:

The Hype train Go’s Toot Toot!!!

HYPE HYPE HYPE! I wonder who the special guests will be. Can’t wait!

Be sure to leave us any questions you may have! We’ll be looking to answer some of them on the stream.

hype for armor! but no falcon…

What are you guys mostly looking forward to showing off? And can we be expecting Tom French again? I need to see the beard.

EDIT: What is with the Halo Community and Carlton Happy Dancing GIFs everywhere? This is the third one I saw in the hour. Most certainly not mad, just curious.

Plus, HI 343!

AFTER EDIT:So stoked for tomorrow! The Carbine Sight has my attention. Also curious if they’re also adding the Lightrifle scope seen in ,“Flag Monger” I think, achievement art. Now for the next special guest, we need Timmy the Whale! Just kidding… Great stream! Setting my alarm for download!

Question: Will the Brute Plasma Rifle be implemented in to Forge?

Three infection questions…

Will Infection be its own playlist?

Is it possible that Classic infection return in a gametype? (no AA, Pistol Shotgun starts and no power weapons on map). I agree with pistol being powerful in Halo 5 but I feel that it shouldn’t be fully left out! :slight_smile:

And since infection is probably going to take off with new gametypes and maps with the community, how often will the playlist be updated with new maps and gametypes?

And the new MM Search Preference, will this help Solo players? I run into waayy to many full teams. :frowning: And will this also help match me with people my rank?

Question: why no falcon?
Question: why no new warzone map?
Question: why no halo reach maps
Question: why no forge world?

Is there going to be more than one gametype variant for infection on matchmaking? I know Alpha Zombies is on there but will there others? Cheers.

To add on:

Why no Revenant?
Why no grenade launcher?

Oh, and…

Why no party restrictions?

Drop the knife, Stabitha!

I like the armor to a degree, but I won’t lie that that I am sad no falcon… At least tell us the REQ’s will be added to forge possibly. Or even surprise us with a falcon and troop hog in next update

Can’t wait! Wrath armor, here I come! :smiley:
Hopefully there will be some interesting items added to forge, maybe REQ’s?
