Rowboat 000 comes through again, sharing Halo 5 tips and tricks with his friends. He taught me how to jump into the bases on the multiplayer map Truth, and I wanted to pass that onto you, so I made this little video to guide you through it.
Wuzz Ranger asked if I am using bumper jumper. Yes, I am, and this is definitely more difficult without it…

Creative Customs, formerly Casually Competitive Customs, is a Halo Forge group whose members have been creating quality maps and gametypes for years. Hosted by o Nondual o, customs game nights feature maps and gametypes created by group members, and other quality maps and gametypes found around the community.
Creative Customs Halo 5 Forge Showcase is a Youtube playlist I’ve created to share videos from game nights. Check out some of the fun stuff we’re playing Monday nights, and maybe find a new map or gametype to add to your collection. We’ll try to add new videos and clips to this playlist weekly.
Learn how to tell where the enemy is on the Halo 5 map Truth by the telltale signs in this video created by Halo Diehards member Wuzz Ranger. Special thanks to rowboat 000 for bringing this to my attention and Wuzz for making the video!
Recently I realized that it’s easier than ever to upload clips and share them from YouTube. Like I’ve covered before, Halo 5 video clips taken by the Xbox One DVR are automatically available for anyone to view or download from XboxDVR.com. But what I didn’t know until recently is that you can also easily upload them to YouTube without downloading them, with the push of a button if you make a free account.
And so Halo Diehards Clip Chips was born (Quick Clips was already taken!) The following playlist, which is also available on our Halo Diehards Video page will update as clips are added. Any Halo Diehards members or gaming buddies who’d like to have their clips added to the playlist, or even feature your own active playlist at our site, contact me and we’ll work out the deets!
With the addition of Xbox One’s Upload Studio feature, sharing game clips online is no longer reserved for those willing to fork out the cash for a capture card. Add to that the ability to share using a variety of social network sites right from your clips, and there is a veritable smorgasbord of means to share your gaming clips.
See Halo Diehards member Wuzz Ranger in the following clips, captured with his Xbox One and uploaded to imgur. Guess who’s driving in the first clip – – you get three guesses. And the first two don’t count…

Halo 5: Guardians drops October 27, 2015. Just over two months from now, we’ll get our gritty mjolnir mitts on it. In the meantime, the ‘net is full of videos and information, for those not concerned with spoilers. Check out several videos below, Wargames followed by a Campaign sneak peek, shared by Vincent Torre over at Casually Competitive Customs on FaceBook, a closed group primarily consisting of talented Halo Forgers. Thanks, Vince!
I’m really digging the parkour elements of Halo 5, and appreciate the return of ledges and other tricky playspaces that will allow us to creatively navigate the new maps, by hiding, sneaking past battles to reach an objective, and flanking the enemy. I’m especially excited that flag juggling has returned!
In the fourth video below, see our first view of the War Games map, Colosseum, featuring gameplay by pro teams Epsilon ESports vs Optic Gaming. This video showcases the efforts 343 has put into bringing Halo back into ESports, and the tools now available to increase the effectiveness of the viewer experience.
Don’t forget to check out some Halo 5 Campaign gameplay in the bottom video. Dat Hunter…
