It\u2019s been just a few short weeks since we dropped Warzone Firefight, Halo 5\u2019s latest and largest free content release. In that time, the community has banded together to battle round after round of alien enemy, taking the fight to Covenant and Promethean opponents alike. Back at the 343 mothership, we\u2019ve been carefully monitoring your feedback and play data in order to continue evolving and improving your Halo 5 experience.<\/p>\n

In that vein, earlier today we flipped the switch on a hotfix to improve your experience in both Warzone Firefight as well as on Tidal, our brand new Forge canvas. Let\u2019s take a quick look at what\u2019s been improved with this hotfix update.<\/p>\n

WARZONE FIREFIGHT<\/h2>\n

\u201cHey all, during the Warzone Firefight beta earlier this year, you generated an almost incalculable amount of data from your in-game efforts on Escape from A.R.C. In that short period of time we had more coverage on that map and those objectives than the entire development of the mode to that point. For that, we thank you. Your efforts helped make Warzone Firefight a better experience for everyone. Now that the full release across six maps is out, the amount of data you\u2019re generating has grown exponentially.<\/em><\/p>\n

In general, we\u2019re pleased with what we\u2019ve seen regarding the conquering of those pesky AI foes. However, that data, alongside feedback gathered from a variety of internet locales and social media, helped us identify a few objectives that were not playing at a difficulty appropriate to the round where they exist.<\/em><\/p>\n

Below you\u2019ll see a more complete list of the changes you can expect to find in our new hotfix in Halo 5: Guardians. Please note, there are some additional under the hood changes in this release that should improve your in-game experience now and help set up further updates as we continue to fine-tune Warzone Firefight in the future.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

HFFL:<\/strong> I’d like to note that I had a twitter chain with David not long ago about some of these very changes. Whether it was me or others or all of us that helped get these changes made, I’m glad they are happening!<\/span><\/p>\n
