Achievements look good. I should be able to get them all besides the co-op ones unless there's matchmaking for co-op which I doubt. Only 1 blitz map, and 8 regular ones. That's not very much and it will almost certainly hurt review scores. Can't wait to play, wait is killing me

As long as the majority of maps can be played in large matches, I am happy.

They will likely try and sell us more via DLC, not sure if I will bother with DLC with Halo Wars 2 though, I'll wait to see how the community looks in 6+ months time.

Any news as to whether there will be a map editor?

I'm almost positive that they are going the halo5,gears route and map will be free. So as not to divide the community. No map editor planned at this time.

i don't mind the 8 maps. I will really only play 3v3 and since all 8 can be played 3v3 I'm happy. But 1 map for blitz and firefight? That is crazy to me. Why go through all the trouble to make this card mode and only have 1 map. Some people won't want to do the base building stuff and they are gunna be real disappointed by 1 map. The reviewers will kill it for not having at least 3.

Destiny 2 hype

Anyone else see that thing about bungie and activision. Apparently if bungie can't ship destiny 2 this year than activision gets a bunch of their stock. I bet bungie regrets partnering with them. I'll have to wait for reviews on this.

Anyways Xbox lost npd again by less than 77k, we don't have final numbers. But it was the best January ever for the X1. I'm hoping February is also the best ever.

 Also games are getting past the 30% digital market share. Activision said destiny and overwatch in the low 30's.

Yeah, play anywhere titles are probably already 40%+ digital on XBO. 

That's possible. I'd guess they very from 28-38. Meanwhile normal aaa vary from 23-33. The new cod was at 25%.

I think it also depends when a game releases and for which purpose it is bought. In holiday season many games are bought as gift and physical because of that. Games releasing before holiday season have probably a higher percentage of digital. 

That may only make a few percent difference but still^^

Ohh ya. After the 3rd game I'm sure bungie is gunna be so happy to get away from there claws. Meanwhile activision will be studying their contract on how to dig in deeper.

Looking forward to Black Desert on XB1, it needs more MMORPGS.
