I’m glad they kept theatre in Halo 5, but I feel it’s lacking in core features. Here are a few suggestions on ways to improve it:
Allow the player to play the clip (and fast forward/skip backwards) without having the interface up. - Fixing the broken zoom (you have to press both the left and right stick in to do so, and sometimes that doesn’t work either). - Adding a timeline so you know where you are in the clip (why wasn’t this a core feature?). - Being able to rename clips (easy for reference later on).And a BIG suggestion for custom games:
Fixing the weapon lowering (your weapons don’t appear lowered in 3rd person or free cam in theatre).I’m also unsure if Bookmarked Films are saved permanently or not, can someone clear that up please? It makes life so much easier for machinima creators.

Thanks! Yeah, watching past games with friends would be an awesome feature too!
I feel you OP, especially with the weapon lowering. When my friend discovered it his heart shattered with rage. They provide a great Forge with amazing abilities that could benefit machinima directors yet alert carry doesn’t function. Maybe more functions will roll out with Forge come December.

I hope they do! We’re currently sticking to Halo: Reach for our machinima until Forge mode is released.
If basic stuff like showing the timeline, fast forwarding, and skipping back to a certain time of the film isn’t in theater at this time? Then I agree. That should’ve been already in the game from the start so please fix this issue.

That’d be useful, but I’m sure that’s a glitch with an easy fix.

That isn’t a feature either. This would also be a nice addition alongside a file share to show the community your best moments!
