After watching the Launch Trailer, I’m getting hyped, like I promised myself I wouldn’t become.
Friday the 17th is too far away, but I’ve got it pre-installed on my PC, which could handle the Blitz beta at maximum graphics without any frame rate issues.
I am ready for this game, it’s been a long wait since that day I completed the last Halo Wars 1 campaign mission.
Here’s to hoping it’ll be worth the wait.
I’m ready, what about you?
I am dedicated. I am a believer. My body is pure.
I want it, I truly do. But I can’t stand RTS games on consoles.
If my PC were windows 10, I’d totally get it. But after the horrible reviews of windows 10, I never chose to “upgrade”
My PC would be ready, but for whatever reason, they aren’t selling the physical version for PC in Canada anymore, so my PC is getting ready for Mass Effect Andromeda instead.

Horrible reviews for Windows 10? I’ve heard nothing but good things about it, and have quite enjoyed using it ever since I upgraded.

After having used it (W10) for about a year now, I’m more or less happy with it. A lot of the crap introduced in 8 / 8.1 has been removed or improved.
I’m just an average PC person though, so maybe it’s less friendly to more complex users…?

I think some people may have difficulty adapting to change. I mean, Windows 10 does work fairly differently to Windows 7, but once you get used to it, it’s just fine. But again, like you, I’m just an average PC person. I use it to game, browse the internet, and do work. But… Isn’t that what most people do?
Still, to each their own. I just think that one shouldn’t bash it until they try it.

Why do you care about that much about the physical version on PC? It’s not like you could share it with a friend or trade it in like console physical, the actual license is one time use digital code. Heavily capped internet?

I live in the middle of nowhere, so my internet is insanely slow. It would take me a few days to download the game digitally, which really sucks. Not to mention that I literally can’t use the internet when it’s downloading, since downloads use up all of my bandwidth. So preventing others from using the internet for that long is not ideal either…
Having a physical copy would have been a life saver.
This post made me laugh and I definitely agree with you

I got Win10 and I’m happy with it. I’ve forgotten any grievance I’ve had about it, then again I was stuck with Win8 for a loooong time.

It’s not on Amazon, or anywhere else in Canada. Ske7ch posted a thread on the forums explaining that the physical version for PC is no longer available outside of Europe.

Ah, didn’t read it as I pre-ordered the digital version ages ago.
I had a UK friend of mine mail me the Halo 5 Legendary Edition, expensive :S, as it wasn’t available here. Perhaps you know someone who could do the same for you?

Unfortunately, I don’t know anybody who lives in Europe 
I appreciate the suggestion though! But that’s ok, I’ll just have to make due with what we’re getting, even if it takes me a long time to download. What annoys me isn’t the fact that there isn’t a physical version at all, it’s the fact that they announced one, let us in Canada pre-order it, and then canceled it just two weeks before launch. I got my hopes up, only to have them taken away from me…
Ah well, what can I do? No sense in complaining about it, right?
