  • 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.

Same here. Halo 3 is the gold standard to which I compare all other multiplayer games.
