This game feels quite good. 19-3 first game.

Would like some teammates though, if anyone is down for it!

 

[Heysoos]

Can't get into a match. I connect and find players but then everything starts flashing wildly and matchmaking fails. Awesome.

restart the game itself, worked for me

Lol we've had this discussion before.

It's really not OP at all... A good pistol/BR player will beat it everytime. They simply made it viable now.

no they are way too good

 

[Thursday War]

Nowhere near OP.

It's just that it now provides a fighting change for those without a BR.

As some have already said, a competent player with a BR, DMR or even a pistol will come out on top most of the time.

The fact that you can kill a guy at medium range with a full clip of AR means that its OP.

 

[Noricart]

The game feels alright but dear god do I feel awkward with these controls

 

[IllumiNate]

How long is this beta? My copy doesn't arrive until Wednesday.

3 weeks

 

[Sai]

Lost my first match, went 19-11. :/

Pistol feels better when fired fro the hip. AR doesn't seem to be as overpowered as folks made it out to be.

Should you back out to the main menu after each match to avoid getting stuck at searching for players? Think I heard somebody say that.

 

[Chitown B]

Want from gold 1 to onix 2 in the weekend it was available

yeah good for you. Gold is relatively good. I started at Bronze II in the Preview and it's hard to get out. My friend who is less skilled got with some good teams and got placed Silver II. Games that I play with him I constantly best him yet he's ranked higher. It's broken.

HOW DO I TURN OFF VIBRATION?

Don't see it under controller settings

You can't. It's crap. I don't know how they miss that option.

 

[ryan299]

The game feels alright but dear god do I feel awkward with these controls

Yeah they need to add custom controls. I'm playing with 'cod' controls bc I'm not a fan of the others. Using smart scope with the right thumbstick doesn't feel smooth to me

 

[GECK]

You can't. It's crap. I don't know how they miss that option.

oh my god.

 

[Gowans]

Got a cheeky game in, got a couple of hours to wait till I can play alight.

Feels as great as it did a week ago!!

Anyone who wants to do some rank battling in a couple of hours add me Gowans007

Yes please. Add dusktildawn24 I'll be on I'm about an hour

 

[jem0208]

no they are way too good

If you can aim and have a pistol or a BR, most of the time you'll beat the AR, unless they outmanoeuver you.

 

[RyudBoy]

Gonna get on soon, hope it works for me. :/

 

[Chitown B]

If you can aim and have a pistol or a BR, most of the time you'll beat the AR, unless they outmanoeuver you.

Only at a medium to long range. Close up, you will lose 4/5 times.

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

First match impressions:

This game still takes skill!
It feels fresh too.

 

[mike4001_]

The game feels alright but dear god do I feel awkward with these controls

Can´t you customize it ?

But I generally am OK with it that the now have the same control scheme as every other game out there

 

[RdN]

The fact that you can kill a guy at medium range with a full clip of AR means that its OP.

If you're getting beaten by an AR at medium range when you have a BR, then I'm sorry, but you're doing very poorly.

 

[Diablohead]

The lack of what feels like no sticky aim is throwing me off a bit, but it's good in the long run to rely on skill over auto aim.

To note I am not against the AR doing a good job but right now you can get hosed and die before you realise what's going on, with the pistol you at least have to aim for the head for a clean kill.

 

[MaGlock]

You guys making me mad jelly right now I'm at work for 6 more hours

 

[Solid Samus]

I've been watching some footage of this online and unlike Halo 4 I'm just blown away by the sound design on show here. Really, really good stuff.

 

[Shyakugaun]

Oh man this game is buttery smooth

 

[spootime]

AR reminds me of p90 in csgo

 

[Diablohead]

falling off a ledge, when you land you get this heavy thump noise, really carries the weight across.

 

[jem0208]

Only at a medium to long range. Close up, you will lose 4/5 times.

If you have a BR, back up and keep them at a distance. Don't let them get too close.

 

[Raide]

Oh man this game is buttery smooth

It certainly is.

 

[rakkadakka]

TTK feels low to me, but that's before mastering the quick dash abilities.

Maybe that will change with time but it feels like you can't even turn on a guy at this point.

 

[backflip10019]

restart the game itself, worked for me

This did it.

Holy fuck this game is fun.

 

[nhlducks35]

Having fun so far

 

[m23]

You guys making me mad jelly right now I'm at work for 6 more hours

I known your feels bro.

 

[Magwik]

Sprint needs to go. ADS can be tweaked (option would be nice to switch though). charge meh. Ground pound? Ehhh. Clamber is fine.
Oh and my last game was P2P. So much for dedicated servers.
Love the pistol though.

 

[ShadowsFell]

Yes please. Add dusktildawn24 I'll be on I'm about an hour

Will do!


I'll add you too max payment.

 

[jet1911]

Only at a medium to long range. Close up, you will lose 4/5 times.

Well yeah. The AR is a short/medium range weapon. It should be better than the BR/DMR at that distance. Unless the player is bad, like me lol.

EDIT: The gunplay is sooooo good. This bodes really well for the singleplayer.

 

[Thursday War]

If you're getting beaten by an AR at medium range when you have a BR, then I'm sorry, but you're doing very poorly.

I meant they can do significant damage over range. I can out BR them most of the time, but if I'm a little more than half shield, and someone shoots me from medium range with an AR, they could kill me.

 

[yankeehater]

When do we get new content?

 

[Welfare]

I don't have a radar! HALP

 

[m23]

When do we get new content?

Next week.

 

[nbnt]

My god, this game is too good.

 

[Sai]

:/ Anybody else having server issues?

 

[Sou Da]

I don't have a radar! HALP

Dem MLG settings

Spoiler

:3c

 

[Kibbles]

Only at a medium to long range. Close up, you will lose 4/5 times.

More like long range, even medium range is easy to get AR kills :S

 

[Prophecy650]

How do I download it, I have the mcc digital and in extras doesn't show its available to download.

 

[Einchy]

The default controls are so hard to get used to. Been playing Bumper Jumper since Halo 3 and this is fucking with my brian.

 

[Yaranaika]

Everything is working perfectly so far.
The dedicated servers are as smooth as butter and the combat is excellent.

This is going to be a good 3 weeks.

 

[JayEH]

Finished first game and I absolutely sucked. Spent most of the match fighting the controls and trying to find a good pick and settled on halo 4. Game feels super fast paced compared to past halos. Not sure I like that yet, definitely need to give it a few more matches.

 

[Gnome Scat]

I kick ass on Truth but suck at Empire. I guess I'm more of a Sword guy than a Sniper guy.

Oh and also a little bit of feedback: In terms of zoom, can the feature come back where you click to perma-zoom, but hold if you want to come out of it quick?

 

[Diablohead]

I don't have a radar! HALP

my radar went away playing midship which was my 2nd match, will see what happens in this 3rd game loading up.
