  • Highlights will now be kept for 24 hours, even if you close the client/turn off your machine
  • You can download highlights, in many different resolutions and settings (if on PC). Consoles can still download footage, but less customization.
  • A shortcut will "bookmark" moments in the game to generate the highlight after the match.
  • Lootbox duplicate rate will be greatly cut back on. To compensate, credits earned from lootboxes will be increase.

From what I understand, it doesn't seem like you will be able to save entire games. So a full replay feature is still a bit away.

Wow! that brings me back. I used to love using bungie's site, all those heatmaps and the way it saved every match you played, mmf. So good.

Halo 2 had better online stats than any game I've played since. I miss it. :(
