I don’t know if this is common among other players but I will have some really questionable deaths that I can’t even figure out watching a replay. I don’t have the good weapon mods yet so I’m wondering if there are any that improve damage? It looks like Kinetic Bolt does extra damage but it says it only applies to vehicles.
I get killed faster than other players despite using the same gun, I figure it’s their improved accuracy/fire rate mods that cause it. Melee also seems worse for me, I know there’s a melee damage mod but even in Arena I have some videos of weird stuff. Like coming around a corner and seeing an enemy, we both melee each other and I die yet he lives. My shields were full so I don’t know how it happened, I didn’t get shot by his teammates.
Lastly this is one I know for sure it’s not in my head. When I Charge an enemy and he does the same, we clash and he pulls out his weapon a lot faster than me which gives him the kill. Is there a mod that would explain that?
I feel like this game hates me 
Naw Kinetic Bolts don’t deal extra damage to infantry. Just makes their death more pretty 
If you get killed faster by the same weapons it may be the better version of said REQ weapon. If you are talking about loadouts, it really depends on the situation but the damage is equal. Aim, teamwork, thruster, movement, distance, grenades, all plays heavily into who gets to live and who has to respawn. If you need some improvement, start playing in the Arena a lot more, even if it hurts. Get the power weapons, apply pressure with teammates, stick to them and work on your aim and strafe especially.
There is one mod to reload faster which speed ups your time to draw a weapon too (I think?) so that might’ve been it.
Just practice a little more, Warzone is not the best place however due to its not entirely balanced and sometimes “unfair” nature.

Thank you, Warzone gets really frustrating with players who’ve unlocked a lot of good gear. Then occasionally you get shafted by the game. Core is nearly dead I spent a REQ on rare rocket launcher and it spawns me on a teammate who, for some reason, is farting around on the other side of the map. Then other teammates start spawning on us and we run out of time running to core.
But… it gives a lot of RP.

Oh yeahh, just played a game today in Assault on Urban where it was me and two others vs the full red team sitting in the basement of the armory. A few running in circles, two chilling in a scout hog, another one was spotted spraying and praying with an AR on the other side of the map while two dudes were T-bagging each other/ idled a lot.
Took some time away to observe all of this too, so I wasn’t the most focused either. 
And let’s not get started on how frustrating it is to waste a good REQ…
RP are nice indeed, and I’m not saying Warzone is no fun. But having equal starts/ a chance to turn things around not ultimately relying on 11 random’s doing keeps my controller alive.

Exactly, this happens nearly every game. If I’m lucky maybe half my team will actually go for objectives if there any. I don’t know if they forget we have bases that need their attention or they just don’t care and prefer running around like it’s Slayer trying to boost their KDR.
Oh Warzone how I wish I could quit you.

I second that.
Every time a new Halo game is released, I have a ritual rite of passage with the multiplayer, where it will throw me to the ground and kick me in the groin for a game or two before picking me up, dusting me off, and hugging it out. And I like to think that I’m pretty adept at every other Halo game.
Halo 5, however, never seemed to get the memo that it was supposed to stop kicking.
