Don't know if everyone has seen this already, but 343 have created what is essentially an official clan system for Halo 5. See Frankie's announcement [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/the-companies-you-keep HERE] and a breif overview [https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/spartan-companies HERE]. Basically it's a service that lets you create a group through which to organise things through a group forum. Companies have a 100 person limit, and you can only be part of one at a time. Creating one or joining one will give you a free REQ pack. To become active you need to have at least four people in a Spartan company. Alongside this they have also added a Spartan customisation feature on Waypoint so you can customise your multiplayer Spartan outside of the game.--[[User:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] ([[User talk:Soul reaper|talk]]) 02:12, 20 October 2015 (EDT) | Don't know if everyone has seen this already, but 343 have created what is essentially an official clan system for Halo 5.

:You also get a REQ pack for the first time being in an active (+4 member) company. I created my company as soon as the feature was released and managed to snatch a valuable name. Anyway, I'm in the process of taking screenshots of every single armor, visor, and color for upload. Expect a huge dump of images in an hour or two.-- | :You also get a REQ pack for the first time being in an active (+4 member) company.

:Without spoiling anything, I loved the campaign. I thought it was probably the best since ODST. I have no idea what certain reviews complaining about a weak campaign are talking about, except that maybe they weren't paying attention to it. Osiris works well, and Blue Team are a thrill to see, if sparingly. The story satisfies everything I want a Halo story to be, and introduces a few new major players. There is one new character who is really cute, and I hope she returns for future games. You'll know them when you see them. I watched a playthrough, rather than playing the game, but it looks really, really fun. The Prometheans retooling seems to have worked rather well, and the Spartan Abilities are really nice new tools in the sandbox. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[ | :Without spoiling anything, I loved the campaign.

::As for the future, I'm excited for the possibilities this opens up. Regarding Warden Eternal: we all, I think, expected the Didact to have survived being Composed. I kind of expected the Warden to turn out to be the Didact in a new body. Now imagine a composed Didact, in a hulking Promethean body, fighting the Warden for control of this new faction seeking the Mantle. Now imagine the UNSC and Swords of Sanghelios launching a united strike during this internecine conflict, to take out or capture Cortana. Heck, we see Covenant in the game who think Genesis was "promised by the Prophets" - they could see these Guardians as the return of their "Gods" and begin to revive, after the disasters on Kamchatka and Sanghelios, in service to their new AI overlords. And having a large, diverse, interesting roster of characters, setting them all on the run, and teasing the involvement of a Halo in the future. | ::As for the future, I'm excited for the possibilities this opens up.

::We've seen concept art of Thorne on Fireteam Osiris. I do have to wonder, was the original plan for Osiris to ''be'' Majestic? I can definitely understand replacing them, even with the original plan to keep Thorne, who is the only character Spartan Ops introduced that I like and who has earned the right, in my book, to call himself Spartan material. I do wonder what 343 plan to do with Majestic in the future, now that Osiris is their "primary" S-IV team. Will they be kept to future comics? A book series? A retooled Spartan Ops campaign? -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[ | ::We've seen concept art of Thorne on Fireteam Osiris.

I've been gone for quite some time; I'll get to that later in another forum soon. For now, I came across someone who has played the game and has pretty good explanations for why Halo 5's campaign is "weak", or bad. Mind you, I don't have the game and have yet to get a XboxOne (was planning on getting a XboxOne S but that may be delayed now). However, after watching these videos, I have to agree with him and have learned a lot more about Halo 5 that has made me very disappointed in the direction 343i has taken the series. The first video highlights an issue that I've been having with the expanded material 343i has been releasing long before Halo 5 was released. In fact I stopped buying escalation issues (can't remember what issue I stopped at), so I'm seriously behind. But at this point of time it doesn't matter. I'll get into later. For now here are the videos: | |||

:::That must be a fun thing to link on articles.

So, guys, here's possible evidence pointing towards Cortana being infected by the Logic Plague. Link: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNU2ZeAi-Vw> | |||
First, watch the video all the way through, then come back here, and post your comments. | |||
Anyway, this, which is official content (albeit, from a not so well known source), very heavily points towards Cortana being infected with Logic Plague, which has been speculated for awhile now. What do you guys think? | |||

You have access to the same amount of information regarding Bastion, a Forerunner was looking for it and it might be a person if I remember correctly. [[User:Alertfiend|Alertfiend]] - [[Blue Team|Team Chief]] 17:57, 6 January 2016 (EST) | |||
