I got Halo 5 as a extra from buying an xbox. I really enjoyed the game. Team Arena was litterally the only ranked gamemode I played, and it was seriously fun to go around on CTF and strongholds with SMG’s and the like. I’ve taken a big break from the game since, but ever since I came back yesterday i’ve been playing team arena again and all i’ve gotten have been HCS gamemodes. Without any of the fun that came from actual team arena. Every match is a magnumfest with little to no enjoyment, which was sad. I’m not pulling any “I want it to change now” or “I’ve been a long player so I know what’s best” but I personally liked the gamemode how it was, and i’m disapointed that it’s changed. My real question is why it got changed and when?
Ya I noticed this as well when HCS started back up. But for me personally I don’t mind starting with the magnum. I’ve been practicing with it to get better using it and would switch to it in any game mode that has the magnum as the secondary. But that’s because I’ve been practicing with it so it just saves me from having to switch weapons when the match starts. I do miss the other weapons on the map that aren’t in there due to HCS settings, but I still don’t mind. I have no idea if they’re going to revert it back to how it was before or not though.
You probably don’t know, but they changed things ups a few months ago. Team Arena is now the HCS playlist and Core Play is now Team Arena. Core Play is a social playlist which is rotational so you’ll have to wait until they bring it back in order to play it.
Cool. I’ve been wanting to learn more HCS stuff anyways, so I don’t mind the change myself.

actually i have find that the magnun is the more versatile loadout, at least for me. and we all wanted the spartan charge out, so this is great.

I honestly prefer the limited radar. I never did mind the charge honestly, even though I rarely ever use it. But I did get annoyed with it when you have people on your team and the other that only run around using the charge.
I used Arena as practice for HCS before I hopped onto it, now I have no practice. I was fine when they put it into core play, but now that’s gone and I don’t play HCS anymore because I haven’t practiced so yeah, I miss Arena.
