    With this daydream inspiring sneak peak into the things to come, I find myself somewhat fixated on the myriad of possibilities that Memories of Reach inspires in me. Could it be the Long awaited File Share in a more Reachtastic fashion. Revenants, because Revenants, and not just because I want to reintroduce my Revenant Rampage Rally map/gametype. Maybe the addition of the old school jet pack like function for Forging shits and giggles. Maybe it's something more ambitious, like the recreation of Forgeworld in Halo 5. No matter what it will be, Reach had the goods, and I can't wait to find out what we will be getting.

    What does the Memories of Reach DLC make you long for?

    PS. Now if only we could get a "Brutal" DLC update so I get get my hands on a FIRE GRENADE and the Spiker.

    Here's to hoping the grenade launcher and some noble team armor shows up! Mostly hoping for the grenade launcher above all else.... I miss that thing.

    Dual spikers? I always grabbed those on Narrows. I'm not even kidding. When B.U.N.G.L.E. was announced I was ecstatic and then quickly was demoralized when I realized it was a joke... (painstakingly obvious, wasn't it? *facepalm*) And of course the pro-pipe was one of the best things about Reach. Including Invasion, the Falcon flying vehicle, and firefight. Pro-pipes and mongooses? What was that gametype? I can't remember but it was great.

    Oh bungle.... April fools at its finest. A lot of people got gotten by that one so don't feel bad lol Also I'm pretty sure it was rocket race with the pro pipe. It was rocket launcher primary and the pipe as your secondary.

    @a Chunk Ooooh the grenade launcher. Much love.

    @Nohbody Dual Spikers are the only way to spike. LOL, that B.U.N.G.L.E. video. The hype train was real.
    Needle Rifle, good call.

    I hope 343 realizes that they don't need to find a way to incorporate every weapon they put in the Forge, into the entirety of Halo 5. We can have our own unique stuff. Right now Warzone has the most weapons by a staggering amount (due to mods) and that seems a bit odd considering what the Forge is.

    I told my wife about the Memories of Reach update just now. She replied...

    "What's that mean?"

    "I don't know. It'll have things from Reach."

    "Like splitscreen?"

    lmao No, that would have been the "Halo Franchise" Halo 5 DLC update.
    AKA "Lost Artifact" DLC
    AKA "MIA" DLC
    AKA "Things We Shouldn't Have Removed" DLC

    Grenade launcher would be an amaazing addition to the tier 3 weapon group. As long as they keep they manual detonation the same.

    And the jetpack would be awesome also!! As a pick up on custom maps and limited power up in warzone

    BTB was not only strong in Reach, if you exclude remakes and the eventual addition of the Anniversary add on, it was pretty much the whole Reach map list. This marked the start of me not buying Halo map packs. However, I did enjoy Countdown, Swordbase, Powerhouse, and Anchor 9. I never really played Condemned since I stopped buying the map packs, but it looked like it had potential. As far as my group was concerned, Reach maps never held a candle to Halo 3's maps and was a weak contender with the majority of the library before it.

    I could see some of the BTB fans getting psyched up for some map remakes. The only time I touched the BTB maps was when I chopped down and overhauled Spire, Breakpoint and Tempest (Argon Flux, Widows Pass, Divided) in an attempt to reclaim some of my wasted money and increase my use of stock maps.

    Reach had some of my favorite maps in the Halo library. Thank god for Forgeworld. ;)

    Grenade Launcher (hopefully as a Tier 2 weapon - no way it's worth a 2-3 minute tier 3 spawn timer).

    Revenant (minus god-mode for the passenger).

    Other than that I wouldn't mind seeing the Reach Sniper Rifle make an appearance. Ideally it'd be a bit more difficult to use than the H5 model (enough to be worth considering for a 2 minute timer for example; I wouldn't be opposed to having snipers of varying difficulty to accommodate differing timers appropriately) and would bring the cool factor with its sounds and visual design.

    I think Forge World is a smart prediction, we've already heard rumours of it initially being delayed and was touted for launch. Id expect it in.

    If thats the case, I imagine there will prob be only 1 more map included (theres never been a Reach map remade yet), I can see Countdown or zealot being include, though I think powerhouse would be great.

    Probably a handful of weapons, various snipers etc as REQs. A gamemode I imagine will be included, depending on what they release in March. Infection 100% if its not in the March release.

    Agreed @Doju. Considering we already have a midshippy purple map I imagine Countdown/Powerhouse would be the more likely ones.

    Would really like that grenade launcher back, that was loads of fun.

    No Forge World
    Maybe a Reach remake
    Maybe a Reach vehicle
    Possibly a Reach weapon
    Probably Reach armor
    Probably a gametype
