Maybe the Arbiter comes with the Halo Championship, but season 3 is allready out?
Just hope

Just hope
I hope we get some armor accessories that resemble the Elites in the Halo games
The only armor set Iām really pining for is the Sangheili Ultras from Halo Reach, they were my absolute faves of all time! But at least we got the Rangers and Zealots in there, thatās awesome. I was skeptical at first (and am still bummed about not having Keith David), but Iām actually really liking how theyāre handling the character and his characterization thus far!
What Joker saidā¦
Personally I hope the Arbiter is a freebie, made as a promotion and not part of season three, which means room for another stage
Yeah, I wouldnāt say anything until March 1st rolls around.
Weāll see soon enough!
EDIT: Orā¦just read the post below I guess.
Oh snap. If this is trueā¦ One day earlier please!
Edit: Rukari closed the S3 Guessing Game Thread for āreasonsāā¦
Could this be the actual release date?
Is it just me or does the color look a little off? Or maybe itās just the lighting, or just a different color period.
Hopefully we get a āpreview weekā where all current characters get their rebalance and we get the new UI. But It pobably wonāt happen
I said it before on another thread, I believe that the Arbiter may be free for halo 5 owners as a promotion. This could be what may be announced at the halo event. Just a thought.
That would be smart promoting, would get just about every Halo player to try the game.
man that is great.all these costumes and the stage. i said i hate halo but i like it. great.
i canāt wait fulgore fight all these worms
Yeah but it would slaughter sales. Maybe they get to demo him for a week.
That would work too, but in the end I dont think it would matter much, if they didnt like the game they wouldnt buy any seasons, if they did like how Arbiter plays, they should/would be tempted to but some other packs.
Its not to get them interested in Arbiter (they already are) its tonget them interested in everything else the game has to offer.
If this event is a also a Launch Day Hype sort of thing like at E3 (Announce game, tell everyone āgo play itā) then it looks like my guess could be correct.
If itās a regular type announcement where itās like āHereās a thing, tune in next week to playā, bummer.
Been happily spreading the screenshots and stuff around the forums. Good stuff! Awesome to see so many custom options.
Interested to see how the gameplay works out.
I donāt think so personally. It may get lots of players to try the game that normally wouldnāt that then may enjoy the game to invest in more characters.
Hold on, Iām sure weāve had this convo before, lol.
Its not going to be exact, its more HD with new textures.
Iām pretty sure the same thing happened with Rash and Rare Replay owners. It would make sense if that were the case for Halo 5 owners as well.
H5 Arbiter? Check.
H2 Arbiter? Check.
Elite Commander? Check.
Elite Zealot? Check.
Elite in Space-suit? Check.
Pre-Covenant Elite? Check.
Yeah, Iām a happy Halo/KI fan.
IG, since you had 343ās help with the costume design, and they gave you so many great options, I hereby officially and formally forgive you for not using Keith David.
Regarding his gameplay, youāll have to be careful with that sticky grenade, as it looks like you can do it mid-combo after the Sword-slash. If you miss the timing and extend the combo too long, you can get caught in the blast yourself. Still, if you do it right, Iām sure itāll make for some nice stagger setups and combo resets. With the specialized carbine, that means youāll have 6 shots before the gun empties its chamber, since it uses 3-shot bursts with 18 total rounds. Heās also limited to only holding the 3 grenades too, so having ammo, which is a big deal in Halo, be in Killer Instinct is a rather funny, but definitely welcome concept, since it fits the character and the game he comes from so well. Iām betting that what others have said is right as well - his UI is going to look like itās from Halo, likely with both the carbine and grenade count at the bottom of the screen above the shadow meter, similar to Mayaās daggers or Aganosā chunks. Hopefully, itāll have a countdown timer on the grenadeās UI, similar to how thereās a countdown with the lockouts, so players wonāt, well, blow themselves up.
I also like that they mention the easter eggs on the stage - what could they be? Could we still see MC in KI, perhaps?
LOL!
No need to delay it on my account guys!
Good info on the arbiter.
