I dunno where Halo 5 will go but the spartan ops episodes could be tying the story together. I'll be gone from home for a month so I won't be able to play epis

From the numbers of users I see playing in my area of live, dunno if it's split up by EU and US servers or whatever but way more people seem to play big team slayer compared to a few hundred playing some of the other modes. I figure they see this and just go with that, more maps for more players etc.

I really want to know if they'll do a new season of Spartan Ops or what? The way season one ended is a good setup for halo 5 though.

I think that is a result of Halo 4 launching with mostly larger maps. Most of them are made for 8v8 games and I find myself preferring big team slayer more otherwise I'd spend most time walking around. They kind of fixed it in majestic but it is restricted to its own playlist now and even there I get CTF and other objective types when I want to play just plain old team slayer!

So back to big team slayer for me :/

Spartan Ops is supposed to be based on before Halo 5. I'm only speculating that they will be in search of the rest of the rings, arcs, and any other Forerunner technology they'd hope to not let the Covenant take control of.

But as far as I'm concerned with Dr.Halsey, Master Chief is going to be different in Halo 5, behavior wise, because she obviously was the reason for his generation.

No hint at a season 2 for Spartan Ops? Or maybe it's too soon and they do it closer to the release of the next gen halo 5?

They're not going to release Halo 5 until the next Xbox. Halo is the flagship of each initial Xbox release in my opinion.

Spartan Ops is supposed to help give a better explanation before hand with Dr.Halsey. Cortana is for the main story obviously.

Yeah, I get that, just saying I'd like some more before we move on to halo 5 and the next Xbox.

I agree, I personally wouldn't be shocked (if the next Xbox is released this holiday) to see Spartan Ops be released in like October, with some very large cliffhanger, probably one last big Halo 4 challenge and then Halo 5 this Christmas with Xbox3

I forgot to mention that there will be a season 2, sorry about that. The next season is supposed to be based on the revenge of Dr.Halsey when the Spartans had special orders from ONI or Command to eliminate her.

I only said the next release with Halo because each Halo is supposed to take part in stronger hardware as Microsoft is the publisher and owner of the creators.

Oh, nice. Good to know.

    • Celebrating Windows XP's 25th anniversary this year

      By KMilenkoski1202 · Posted

      Carol, Windows XP is still being used today only in a small capacity. It is still the best OS there is due to its backwards compatibility with other older software, the customization features, and friendly UI, and people often feel that upgrading to newer OSes is cost prohibitive in specialized Industries or developing countries, so the market share as of now is around 0.2%-0.3%

      By carols23 · Posted

      If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
