== Pro-John117 bias ==
==Halo Xbox One==
This article has a clear pro John-117 bias and needs to be cleaned up.{{Unsigned|98.65.201.42}}
All the official sources, like Halo Waypoint, refer to this game as Halo Xbox One instead of Halo 5. Has anyone confirmed that it's called Halo 5? <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 18:32, 10 June 2013 (EDT)
:If you could please explain a little more, that would be great, because I fail to see how the article is "biased" in any way. After all, John-117 is sort of the main character of the game and entire series. His backstory between ''Halo 4'' and now is pretty central to the game too.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 16:24, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
::John-117 is one of two main characters, as was the case with Halo 2, and in Reach there are arguably 6 main characters. There can be more than one main character but the article says he is the solitary protagonist alluding to Locke being somehow lesser or inferior in role when 343 have multiple times stated the opposite (they are even depicted as equals face to face on the '''cover art of the game'''){{Unsigned|98.65.201.42}}
:::No, it doesn't. The article states John-117 is the primary protagonist of the ''series'', not of the game. The next paragraph which is '''solely''' about Locke opens with the following: "Halo 5: Guardians also features another playable protagonist...".

:I can't reasonably seeing them calling the game anything else, but you're right. At no point has 343 ever used the title "Halo 5".

==Spoilers==
:::::Even if I strongly think that this game is Halo 5, there is still no official information as it being called Halo 5 or being the second installment in the Reclaimer Trilogy, etc. But instead of immediately moving the page, maybe we should just wait for the next Bulletin or a press release from Halo Waypoint (something more than just the trailer). I'm pretty sure that 343 will confirm or deny it. Well, either that, or they don't know how to properly name a game / announce it. If this week's Bulletin doesn't clearly state that the game is Halo 5, then change it to Halo Xbox One or whatever. Or we may as well do it today, but it will possibly be changed again. '''Edit:''' Well it seems that even the Waypoint forum is called "Halo Xbox One"... This really doesn't make any sense to me. If it were Halo 5, why wouldn't they call it such? And if it were a spin-off set between H4 and H5, then why wouldn't they use a subtitle...[[User:Imrane-117|Imrane-117]] ([[User talk:Imrane-117|talk]]) 20:01, 10 June 2013 (EDT)

'''Final title''' to be announced at a later date." That may mean the title "Halo Xbox One" (and perhaps Halo 5) are just temporary/working titles, and aren't permanent. So just a heads up before moving the page to "Halo Xbox One", which IMO wouldn't make sense as a video game title especially for the Halo series.--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 20:43, 10 June 2013 (EDT)


==Team Majestic==
:::::::Well, since we know "Halo: Xbox One" is '''not''' going to be the actual title, I think "Halo 5" is our best option, unless we ''really'' want to change it to "Unnamed Halo game (2014)". [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] ([[User talk:Alex T Snow|talk]]) 21:34, 10 June 2013 (EDT)
Have Team Majestic along with all of it's members been actually proved to appear in Halo 5? Besides the fact that Thorne was originally supposed to take Buck's place, all proofs I know, is a shot from "A Hero Reborn", in which someone noticed "Madsen" in a script, which we don't know even to be final and featured in game. It could also be just a mention. Is that enough to make an assumption? [[User:PatrickRus|PatrickRus]] ([[User talk:PatrickRus|talk]]) 07:06, 22 October 2015 (EDT)

==Additional Characters==
Nobody's saying "Halo Xbox One" is going to be the final title. Odds are we'll move the page then move it right back when it's officially announced as Halo 5. But we don't get to call it Halo 5 until either 343 Industries or Microsoft call it that. That being said, what do we think sounds more appropriate for a title: "Halo Xbox One" or "Halo (Xbox One)"?--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 21:53, 10 June 2013 (EDT)
Aside from the mention of "Sloan" (his name is [[Governor Sloan]]), there's a few other AIs who joined the [[Created]] that should be listed. Those who joined in the scene where we had hundreds join are [[Cromwell]], Shipboard AI on the [[UNSC Melbourne's Pride]], [[Jiang]], the [[Colonial Administration Authority|Colonial Authority]] AI on [[Erdenet]], Rykers, and others. Should these be listed? I'm not sure how so, and of course the article is protected, so I can't do anything about it.[[User:Gregzilla|Gregzilla]] ([[User talk:Gregzilla|talk]]) 20:54, 27 October 2015 (EDT)
:Halo 5, definitely. Halo (Xbox One) leaves too much open for confusion[[User:Ocean Soul|Ocean Soul]] ([[User talk:Ocean Soul|talk]]) 22:24, 10 June 2013 (EDT)


Honestly, I would think all but a few AIs joined Domana and the Created, such as Roland and Black-Box. It would be to much of a trouble to list all of them and unless someone gets a hold of the script for Halo 5, I would only go for the AIs that get subtitled. [[User:Alertfiend|Alertfiend]] - [[Blue Team|Team Chief]] 21:09, 27 October 2015 (EDT)
Whatever name we make up for this article will be just that, a made up name. Whether it's "Halo (Xbox One)" or Halo 5 we're still just making it up. I personally feel that Halo 5 is much more descriptive, as it implies a mainline game, as opposed to a spin-off like Spartan Assault. If you're going to say we can't call it Halo 5 until 343 calls it that, we can't really call it anything else either. Whatever we call it will be our own invention. --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 22:47, 10 June 2013 (EDT)

==Are we meant to recognize the [spoiler]==
Look, we can't just ignore our own policy when it suits us. The game has not yet been called Halo 5 by any official source so until it is, we should not label the page as Halo 5. Rather, we should use an official name. The way I see it, we either go by the trailer and do as Bioniclepluslotr said, calling it Halo (2014), or we go by 343 and MS and call it Halo Xbox One. Personally I'd go with the trailer as the term "Halo Xbox One" is likely to differentiate this title from Halo Combat Evolved.--[[User:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] ([[User talk:Soul reaper|talk]]) 09:44, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

I agree. If they aren't calling it ''Halo 5'', then we shouldn't be either. The page should be appropriately renamed to ''Halo Xbox One'' as that's the name they are currently using. Could always be a working title, but right now it's the best we have.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 11:15, 11 June 2013 (EDT)

Given the fact that the very small part Cortana hums can indeed be recognized as that same Debussy's song, can be also named in the "Plot Synopsis" section, replacing "Piano music"? There is another mention of the same Prélude in Ghosts of Onyx, also by Dr. Halsey, so I think it has background in-Universe.

We should add a receptions section.
It's weird, but I agree that we should follow what the developers seem to indicate is the best possible designation and avoid wiki speculation.

How would you guys feel if we split the marketing section into a new article: "Marketing of ''Halo 5: Guardians''". For reference: [[Wikipedia:Marketing of Halo 3|Wikipedia's marketing of ''Halo 3'']]. I feel like it would benefit the main article, as currently we have like over 20 subsections for different features of ''Halo 5'' marketing media and most of them are only a couple lines long. Instead, we can go into detail about the marketing in the new article, while still summarizing it in the main article.

@ Ocean Soul: Exactly! We don't know if these are first appearances or not. I think we should wait on calling them that, until we have confirmed information, just like we would with anything else, and just like we don't want to call it Halo 5.

'''IT IS NOT HALO 5'''. I nominate for this article to be deleted until further notice or an official announcement that Halo 5 is actually coming up.
 
[[User:Nusent]] 17:50, 2 July 2013 (EDT)
 
:Hence why the article is called "Halo Xbox One." The article you cite still points out it's an actual game.--[[User:Hawki|Hawki]] ([[User talk:Hawki|talk]]) 18:19, 2 July 2013 (EDT)
::Yeah, just because it isn't Halo 5 it doesn't mean it should be deleted. [[User:Pokebub|Pokebub]] ([[User talk:Pokebub|talk]]) 19:02, 2 July 2013 (EDT)
:::I concur. Let's not be hasty and jump to conclusions, shall we? --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 20:19, 2 July 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
::::Not ''Halo 5'' or ''Halo 2 Anniversary''? I've got no ideas on what this is going to be :/ [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] ([[User talk:Alex T Snow|talk]]) 21:56, 3 July 2013 (EDT)
:::::The game ''could'' be ''Halo 5'', it's just not announced yet. The trailer was merely there to announce the coming of the franchise to Xbox One and let the fans speculate. It could also be something else, but at this point it's barely possible to imagine what that would be. [[User:Imrane-117|Imrane-117]] ([[User talk:Imrane-117|talk]]) 08:55, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
:::::: Imrane, The article that Nusent linked states that "Halo Xbox One" is NOT "Halo 5". did you not read the article before stating what you did? [[User:1-10|1-10]] ([[User talk:1-10|talk]]) 12:37, 5 July 2013 (EDT)
:::::::And they're using big words for nothing. They keep repeating that "the game is not Halo 5", etc. but Spencer never ''said'' anything about that. Read the original IGN interview [http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/25/microsoft-on-halo-5-halo-2-anniversary here]. The only reason why they didn't reveal the name was because the trailer was just to announce the franchise's arrival on Xbox One. It could be Halo: spin-off blabla as well as Halo 5, we just don't know anything yet. [[User:Imrane-117|Imrane-117]] ([[User talk:Imrane-117|talk]]) 21:46, 5 July 2013 (EDT)
::::::::Oh, a trailer for the universe as a whole, not anything specific, that makes sense. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] ([[User talk:Alex T Snow|talk]]) 17:42, 6 July 2013 (EDT)
 
== Halo 5 leak ==
 
Should we mention the supposed leak of Halo 5 at the Microsoft Meeting in the article? [[User:Pokebub|Pokebub]] ([[User talk:Pokebub|talk]]) 15:41, 9 July 2013 (EDT)
 
:No. <font style="papyrus">[[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<font color="lime">'''Bioniclepluslotr'''</font>]]</font> 11:27, 5 August 2013 (EDT)
::I haven't heard of any supposed leaks. Also, leaked content is not allowed.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 11:37, 5 August 2013 (EDT)
 
==Plot "leak"==
The plot posted on the Microsoft Store has been [http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=79109993&postcount=240  confirmed as an error made by a "hapless employee" by Frankie], and has since been removed from the site. I would suggest we remove it, as it does not represent anything from the ''Halo Xbox One'' plotline, and is an error. Just so we aren't misleading anyone. :) --<b>[[User:Tentacletornado|<font color="#2E8B57">''Tent''</font><font color="#3CB371">''acle''</font>]][[User talk:Tentacletornado|<font color="#DAA520">''Torn''</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Tentacletornado|<font color="#B8860B">''ado''</font>]]</b> 05:44, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 
Done. '''Ok, so maybe don't always use the DMR anymore. That two shot-melee is pretty good. This is''' [[User:CraZboy557|<span style="color:orange; font-family: Gill Sans Ultra Bold; font-size: 105%;">'''craZboy557'''</span>]], '''signing off.''' 06:23, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
 
==Amazon Pre-order==
I just noticed that this is available for pre order on Amazon. How should we incorporate this into the article? Should we, even? I can't show the link, because the spam filter won't let me, but if you search for "Halo Xbox One" on Amazon you can see what I mean. --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 21:18, 19 April 2014 (EDT)
:Pre-order offers ahead of the actual release is quite common. In fact, it is so common that it's trivial to even list it in the article. Unless there's any special announcement alongside the pre-order, I would suggest not putting it in the article.— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  07:50, 20 April 2014 (EDT)
 
::What about the release date mentioned? Should we include that? Seeing as it is unconfirmed by 343i, probably not, right? --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 08:33, 20 April 2014 (EDT)
 
:::Right on the money. :) — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  08:35, 20 April 2014 (EDT)
 
::::Okay! I just figured I should mention this, just in case it was valuable.  :)
 
:::::It's still good to know, for us people that read talk pages; more info is always good, it just doesn't always go in the article. If it was any other date I'd consider supporting adding it, but we've always known it's coming out sometime this year, so the date being the very last day possible is obviously a placeholder.

== Logo Image doesn't show up ==
 
I noticed that the image "File:Halo5 Logo onDark CMYK Final.jpg" doesn't show up (x in the box indicating an error w/ the image). I tried reloading it and nothing shows up. Anyone else have this issue?--'''''[[User:Killamin7|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamin7</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamin7|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamin7|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 12:56, 16 May 2014 (EDT)
:I'm not having any issue on my end. It could just be your internet connection, or you may need to clear your cache.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 13:03, 16 May 2014 (EDT)
::I just tried it w/ google chrome and it shows up fine, but not w/ internet explorer. ??? I guess it's the browser.

:::For IE (which I am using...the horror), it's Ctrl+F5, but I don't know about other browsers.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 13:11, 16 May 2014 (EDT)
::::Thanks for the commands. Unfortunately it didn't work. IE for yah.

:::::If the problem still persists, a screenshot or information of your IE browser would be helpful. It looks fine on IE11. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  18:33, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
 
(Indent reset) Here you go: [[File:X in H5 Logo.jpg|right|200px]]
This is on my work computer using IE8. My computer at home is doing the same thing but I don't think that I have IE11 at home, maybe IE9 or 10. I'll have to check when I get home. So maybe the older browers can't handle the output of the image. The only work around for now is GC. I can't install the latest IE browser on my work computer (I'm sure everyone knows why).--'''''[[User:Killamin7|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamin7</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamin7|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamin7|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 08:35, 20 May 2014 (EDT)
 
:Yeah, I've got nothing. Must be just IE being IE. I'm using Firefox and it shows up all right. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 08:49, 20 May 2014 (EDT)
 
== Digital feature and TV series connections ==
Does anyone happen to have sources linking ''Halo 5'' to Spielberg's and Ridley Scott's respective projects? I could swear I've seen that info somewhere, at least in relation to Scott's digital feature (which looks like it's shaping up to be the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' equivalent for our new ONI character). If they do exist, it'd be nice to have the connections mentioned on the page. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 00:58, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
 
== Unidentified Spartan-IV ==
Do you think it's too early to give the guy in the box art his own page? Also, since he has the ONI logo on his chest, should we mention him on the [[ONI Security]] page?  --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 18:08, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
 
:Yes to first (An article will be created once there is sufficient information), no to second (He could be part of some other undisclosed, secret cabal division of ONI). — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  18:33, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
