Halo 5 - Monitor's Bounty (Update featuring Server browser on W10)

Finally here it is folks. A server browser for Halo 5 Forge. It's been pretty good on PC but sadly finding matches is a bit complicated as you need to have party chat or friends on your list. Well no more!

No one cares about Halo 5 :<

Its very sad what has happened to the series.

@silversix_: The community is still alive and well, troll.

Halo 5 has more than 360,000 active players in the area modes alone, and that's not even a complete tracking log of those modes let alone all of the others.

Pay no attention to people like that, they're liars.

@silversix_: The hundreds of thousands of players beg to differ.

@dynamitecop: Damn impressive for a game over a year old.

Simply put, i don't believe it.

I don't care what you believe, I care about facts.

Csr Divisions could be a few days behind for players. We're constantly updating. Data is from players tracked on Halotracker, not all players who play halo.

HOWEVER: We now automatically add new players. We are scanning your games, and adding everyone. The amount of players we track is growing. We have tripled our tracked players in 4 days. We now track 360k players and are adding a few thousand a hour.

For those that play on xbone, theres also gonna be custom game browser on the xbone. This isnt just a nice "quality of life thing". It is a big fucking deal.

I literally haven't stopped playing Halo 5 since it launched. I love the movement and changes and the support for the game has been so damn impressive. It's easily one of my favorite multiplayer games of all time.

@jtothamtothap: he's mad Halo 5 outsold all the PS4 exclusives even when they had 20+ million more in their install base.

Best FPS MP this gen

The best just keeps getting better. I hear if Halo 5 reviewed today it would score a solid 20/10..... SOAT baby ( Shooter of all time ) . :P

EDIT: Make that a score of 25/10 GOAT....

Tomorrows update is looking awesome. They apparently made tons of changes to Arena and Warzone. For example they are dialing down the difficulty of WZ Firefight to Heroic, which I think is a good move.

I'm just glad that the approach they took to Halo 5 is actually working. I kinda wondered if the no seasons pass, competitive heavy approach would hold an audience long term, especially after the disasters that were Halo 4 and MCC. The skill gap is pretty large in this game but people still appear to be active. I wonder if they even bother making a new multiplayer for the sequel or just continue to expand like Rainbow Six Siege is.

Game changer right there

What's Halo? Oh that flop lems who don't have games still play.

Update is live on PC. 8.83GB

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I want a custom games playlist for console halo as well.

Server Browser? Isn't that too complex for Lems? I thought they hated most aspects of PC gaming

Halo 5 Had More Active Players Than Halo 3 Even Before Free Promo

"As you can imagine, this is pretty darn exciting to see."

Last updated by Eddie Makuch on July 8, 2016

Nine months after release, Halo 5: Guardians continues to grow its playerbase and topple franchise records.

343 Industries community manager "Brav" wrote on Reddit (via NeoGAF), that the Xbox One shooter had the highest number of monthly active players for a Halo game since 2007's Halo 3. More impressive, this was achieved before Halo 5's week-long promotion where it was free.

Speaking about the number of Halo 5 players who joined during the free period (June 29-July 6), Brav didn't share a specific number, but said "you'd be pleasantly surprised."

Another standout statistic is that Halo 5's playerbase has actually grown in recent months. For example, June's player figures are higher than May's.

"As you can imagine, this is pretty darn exciting to see," he said.

Brav did not share any specific numbers about anything because he said he'd "have to get approval from the powers that be." But things are going well, it seems. "You should rest assured that together, we're quite a strong army," he said.

One element that might have contributed to Halo 5's enduring success is 343's free DLC campaign. Instead of selling extra maps, as it did with Halo 4 and Halo 3, the developer gave away all extra content. 343 released eight free expansions, the most recent of which was June's Warzone Firefight, which is believed to be the game's final free add-on.

Last year, Microsoft said it was starting to plan Halo 6, though the game has not yet been officially announced. The next major Halo game is 2017's Halo Wars 2.

Funny enough if any other dev gave away 8 free expansions they would be praised. If any other dev constantly supported their game for over a year with regular new content they would get praised. If any other dev made such an amazing game that the playerbase keeps growing for 9 months after launch they would be praised. But of course the cow mentality of hating everything MS is an absolute joke.

Lol, look at all the little insecure cows coming in here talking sh** as usual... can't blame them, they got nothing to play so they need something to do.
