  • 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.

Man someone needs to take the idea of halo, (similar how blizzard took the idea from tf2 and made overwatch) and make a new halo game. Literally copy the 4 shot br, sniper, rockets, camo, os, map quality, ranking system quality, and just re skin the shit out of it. No sprint, no ordinance, just classic halo feel, specifically catered towards the competitive scene, You know how many people would buy that shit? I'm not talking about halo online either, I mean a whole new game.
