Warzone is launching with 6 maps and getting another 6 maps later on, free of course.
Theater mode is possibly returning just for Multiplayer.
In CTF while carrying the Flag, you can clamber, ground pound and thrust.
BTB is launching weeks after release, not months.
Assassination animations can be customized for your Spartan and used in Arena Mode, although some animations are longer than others and become riskier.
With REQ cards, power weapons and vehicles are one time use cards while normal weapons are persistent once you unlock them once.
JIP is enabled for Warzone but disabled for all Arena gametypes.
Seems a little high to me… on second thought, Invasion only shipping with 2 maps got old fast.
As long as one of those maps has me dropping from an ODST pod and landing right in the middle of an AI battle.

That would be bad -Yoink-. But I don’t think we can be so lucky.

6 maps just for Warzone is awesome. Most multiplayer games ship with 10 maps total so it puts it into perspective how much we are getting at launch and then later for free.

I’m going to be positive about it. They added that cinematic Pelican intro for the one map we saw, maybe there are actually different intros for different maps. That would be incredible.

This is a really good point but to be on the safe side I’m just going to assume we get dropped off in a Pelican on every level.
I hope to be surprised.
12 Maps total is going to be amazing. I know where I’ll be spending a majority of my time. I’m terrible at 4v4 anyways.
Anyone one else notice the mention of “Armor Pieces”? Hopefully that mean full customization
12 maps for Warzone? Wowza. Think I’m going to have to do a bit of exploring in theatre once these maps drop. From the scale they talk about, there must be at least a few easter eggs tucked away in some of them

I hope it’s sarcasm. Because other than Halo 4, every Halo game has been pack with easter eggs.

Dont get your hopes up to high. Warzone is new and they are orobably testing the waters with it. Lets see how it plays out first.

SIV’s use atmospheric penetrating hardlight modules that transform into aerofoil wings with thruster assisted retro-boosting and then ground pound once within the terminal safe-zone.
Just saying… Do it, MC-style!
Halsey was also working on mechanic that could allow a suited Spartan to enter normal space from hyperspace…
Give me the latter into the former as an intro into WZ!!!
I do agree multiple forms of hot entry would be nice. The Sprint showed they had the idea, mostly, when dropping off the Spartans from the Pelicans and that there wasn’t a landing, barely a stop to let the Spartans hop out.
Personally, get the Pelican within groundpound height and drop your Spartans like comets!!
Some drop-pod action for one intro would be nice, just because we miss sitting in one 
As long as there are imaginative ways to make hot drops, I’m good with a lot of suggestions…
I mean imagine “Come on you apes, you want to live forever???” Is said while in the comfort of what looks like a vehicular loading bay with an active portal generator and a “boarding crew” made up of the players and some AI that run for said portal. For some reason the AI go first… The players follow from the seemingly calm and closed bay to the middle of a very chaotic battle of the friendly AI being mowed down by the neutral AI. CQB inside a base that opens to an expansive settingg with 3-4 faction ships locked in mortal combat.
Imagine.

It’s not so high when you consider that Warzone maps don’t have to be exclusively Warzone maps. They’d also work for Big Team et cetera.
I was thinking 19 at first, so this is kind of disappointing. (it’s a joke, and 6 sounds pretty good to me)

Great, now if it doesn’t have this I will be incredibly disappointed.

There is hype, and then there is -Yoinking!- HYPE. I think I may be more hyped about Halo 5 than any game ever before (apart from Reach, maybe, but that hype was so long ago that I don’t even know now).
