Halo 5’s REQ system explained, and it doesn’t sound too bad

Earlier this week, we reported on leaked information detailing Halo 5's controversial REQ system. For thsoe unfamiliar, the new system allows players to earn REQ points while playing Halo 5's multiplayer modes (Arena and Warzone) which can then be used to purchase REQ packs, a collection of virtual cards containing in-game items and cosmetics, like assassination animations, stances, weapons, armor, helmets, and vehicles.

Confused?

Don't worry, Nick Offerman, aka Mister Chief, is here to for a crash course in Halo 5: Guardias' new Requisition System. In the video, Mister Chief explains the process of earning REQ points, the types of REQ cards you can purchase (with points or through real-money microtransactions), and the systems in place to ensure balance and fairness in Halo 5's Arena and Warzone modes.
