She got a sister?

A brother, if that's your thing

Marry that woman.

I will again after this.

Does she have a cute sister? I'm back on the market, man.

Wife just texted this to me. Didn't even preorder the elite controller...

Sending this to my wife as documented proof that she is not a good person....

Grats

 

[RoKKeR]

Matchmaking is so damn fast and smooth, thank you 343.

And co-op has zero lag, absolutely wonderful.

 

[neoism]

so guys is there a YouTube channel with the whole campaign up yet ?

 

[Courage]

Does anyone know why the 'match stats' box is empty after every match for me? I remember people seeing their KD for the game on streams.

 

[Sanjuro]

holy shit you are right, mine are missing too! only the pre-order stuff for my digital pre-order.



you get it for free if you finish some MCC stuff afaik >>?

I didn't get it. :'(

 

[FStop7]

What's the best item someone's gotten from REQ packs so far?

I bought 5 gold packs. I got an Ultra Rare battle rifle.

 

[CloudyTuba]

Yes.
Praise be.

Most of the complaints I've seen are issues related to the NXE beta and an install issue here or there. Aside from that flawless.

Okay then I guess it's time to me to join. Wasn't going to touch this before I heard it was okay, not after the bullshit 343 previously pulled.

 

[IHaveIce]

A brother, if that's your thing


I will again after this.

Though I guess the beer is for her ?:Kappa:

No awesome I will also buy my fiancee the Elite controller, she is always complaining she would love some extra buttons and programmable aspects, so gets it as a surprise.

 

[iMax]

Good surprise for sure

On topic: just 1 hour and 40 mins till I'm out of work and I can finally start my 4 player coop legendary run with poodlestrike, Wesley shark, and ragnarok flames.

So hyped.

Thennnnn I can't really play till the weekend due to travel :/

 

[Thewonandonly]

Anyone have a problem online. Mine keeps connecting then losing connection then connecting again. Has anyone had this proplem or just me. I'm also on Xbox live the whole time it just disconnects me to halo online.

 

[Teggy]

Hi, does anyone know what I need to read (or listen to or play) to get the backstory on

Very beginning of game spoiler:

Spoiler

Why Halsey is the "most wanted person in the galaxy" at the beginning of the game and what happened to her arm?

 

[The Flash]

L88888! No ones quicker than the flash

That's the problem...

 

[The Antitype]

So I got playlist rank Platinum.

Meh.

Is there a way to upgrade it? Like will I move up a rank if I win enough matches with a strong enough K/D?

 

[Slightly Live]

you get it for free if you finish some MCC stuff afaik >>?

Awesome. No need for anything else.

 

[Sai]

Using spectator mode to watch Nutter ruining some kids' day in Warzone. Very impressed by how well it works.

Elite controller just arrived, and now I gotta get used to using the paddles.

 

[Milennia]

Going to be diving into the campaign first to get a feel for the controls and finish the story.

 

[RdN]

REQ Packs seem laser focused on giving me Needlers and Mongooses.

Feels bad.

 

[BleedOrange]

Wife just texted this to me. Didn't even preorder the elite controller...

Is your wife single?

 

[ryan299]

Not once during warzone assault has the attacking team come close to capturing the first point. People couldn't even get up to the spire it was chaos.

 

[IHaveIce]

What a gang. My thoughts will be with you and poodlestrike to endure those other 2

 

[Strider]

Warzone assault is awful. I haven't seen a close match yet either.

The regular Warzone mode is pretty da,n awesome tho.

 

[Bsigg12]

Feels bad.

Until you get some of the Cert cards that up the rate you get a specific weapon, you tend to get garbage up front. Though I find myself using mongooses (mongeese?) much more often than I though I would in order to traverse to the opposite side of the maps much quicker.

 

[OldSkoolFool]

Wife just texted this to me. Didn't even preorder the elite controller...

"Right! There you go! Now stop going on about frickin' halo and let me watch the Kardashians in peace!!!!"

 

[r3n4ud]

I reallllly suck at mp. Like, playing-like-my-5-year-old-daughter bad.

Fun as all hell, but I die. A lot

 

[Heysoos]

I didn't get any of my Deluxe Digital edition req packs

 

[Ferny]

So I got playlist rank Platinum.

Meh.

Is there a way to upgrade it? Like will I move up a rank if I win enough matches with a strong enough K/D?

Plat is good, but yes as you win games you'll move up in rank. Has nothing to do with personal stats after placements. Just wins and losses can move you down, but not in rank. So you won't go from Plat 1 to Gold 6, but you could go Plat 5 down to Plat 1.

 

[Willectro]

Breakout is amazing. I'll put many hours into that mode, which is great because every other mode is boring. Campaign isn't bad, just boring.

 

[Stevey]

Only on mission 2 but are all the cutscenes this good?
Also, the game looks great.

 

[krpiper]

For what it's worth I had great success being matched with people of similar skill in the beta once I got ranked. Hope that that stays true now.

Hmm fair enough, I was just thinking that a well below average player shouldnt equate to a "gold" ranking. But alas if the matchmaking works well then a label is just a label.

 

[draughn101]

Sending this to my wife as documented proof that she is not a good person....

Grats

Good idea. Me too

I bought one, but ill try to make her feel bad if she says anything about it.

 

[krpiper]

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

Have you gotten ranked yet? Where are you if you have

 

[OldSkoolFool]

You are me. Confirmed.

Edit: except my daughter is 3 and she's still better than me.

 

[Ramirez]

What a gang. My thoughts will be with you and poodlestrike to endure those other 2

Damn lol

 

[Kalentan]

Wtf... Why does the game require an update to play the SP when it's a MP-only patch? I thought they started doing the whole play while downloading aspect?

 

[ryan299]

The radar is too short. They need to increase the range

 

[VinFTW]

What a gang. My thoughts will be with you and poodlestrike to endure those other 2

Lmao.

It's a good ying and yang thing going on

 

[draughn101]

Anyone else having trouble resisting the urge to buy that big 14 req pack bundle.... Damn it!

 

[nomis]

The radar is too short. They need to increase the range

It's way less of a crutch now, git gud, don't depend on it

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

The menu is buggy.

Every now and again, when you try to back. Of a lobby, it goes to the main menu of the whole game instead of just the multiplayer. Kinda annoying.

 

[Bsigg12]

Anyone else having trouble resists the urge to buy that big 14 req back bundle.... Damn it!

Already got it from the Limited Edition so there's not a big fat green pack sitting there every time I go to the REQ store. Got a bunch of cool things with the first 2 packs.

 

[r3n4ud]

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

Have you gotten ranked yet? Where are you if you have

Ranked? If you have to kill anyone to be ranked, then no lol

Only played a round of Warzone though.

You are me. Confirmed.

Edit: except my daughter is 3 and she's still better than me.

Then consider me one of your HaloBro's

 

[Scooby]

Got champion 9 in breakout.

Same. 10 wins in a row as well?

 

[Kalentan]

Woah, my updating is weird... It went from 8% to 34% in an instant.

 

[OldSkoolFool]

I was struggling to work out how to back out of warzone after a game finished without dashing it.

 

[JigglesBunny]

Diamond 1 in Team Slayer.

Is that... is that good... or should I git good?

 

[Papercuts]

Woah, my updating is weird... It went from 8% to 34% in an instant.

I think it's just the XB1 doing weird things. It seems to update the bigass update along with the install which makes it super slow to start.

 

[Blue Ninja]

I'm playing Warzone. If any of you scrubs wanna join me, send a message. BlueNinja BE

 

[draughn101]

Maybe I'll have to grab it then. It goes away after that, lol?
