People would just pull the wire or modem if it was a free escape, how are you losing connection, just randomly?

So, since my Warzone Req Packs are missing in action although I have the Digital Deluxe Edition of the game, I was watching some youtube videos of people opening these to see what the heck am I missing on.
To be honest it was quite underwhelming and I can't understand the difference between these and Gold packs. It's supposed to be some premium shit, but I didn't see anything out of the ordinary or something you can't get from a Gold Pack.
I feel kinda fucked now: first I'm paying for the damn thing, then it doesn't work and now I see it's nothing special....
Everyone else ok with them opening every week like they are supposed to?

Did you get something special from them? Like I was saying I saw nothing out of the ordinary in those videos.

So becase people will quit or pull their connection I should be punished? sigh
How do I know, lost connection in three games. I didn't lose connection to my internet. I was online the whole time.

That's all I asked.
It sucks and I agree, the beta they had last year should have been repeated over the summer to fine tune this shit and other stuff.

I've won every game I've been the attacker. Literally. I've lost every game I've been the defender as well.

You need to be constantly quitting games or disconnecting to be banned, one early leave won't ban you unless your connection to the servers are very unstable.
yeah it's nice when it clicks like that.

ive won as both.
depends on the map a lot. i forget the name of it, but defending the garage is SUPER hard.
defending the fortress on the snow map i got down though. ive also won on defense a lot at the home base, even when the attackers stomp the first two positions. if people take up the right positions in the home base, you can really keep attackers at bay
strange because I only left one breakout game and got banned instantly.
I was satisfied with what I got. some legendary stuff IIRC
You sure it is input lag and not the annoying dead zone this game has? I swear the aiming and sticks movement in this game is borked. I can't consistently aim. It always feels off. Don't really ever have this issue in any fps, but this game just doesn't not Don what I want it to do ever. Never had such low confidence in my ability to aim in a game. I hope they address some of the issues like the acceleration. Thathe bothers me the most.
Haha I actually love it... It's a great way to warm up before playing arena.
Regardless of which side you are on, you get constant opportunities to test your aim.
I haven't noticed any such patterns.
Defending home base generally seems easier than other bases, though.

I actually enjoy it and think it's balanced fairly well.
That said 8 player ffa - what are 343 thinking? 5/6 players is the max ffs should be without being a cluster fuck
This is exactly it for me. Arena is the best since Halo 2 yet there's hardly anything to do. It's not like we can fall back on Forge and Custom games like the past three Halos while waiting for new content.
343 needs to update the map rotation and get some new game modes in soon. They should be updating the playlists weekly at launch.

I just played a full game or warzone and backed out when we were returned to the matchmaking screen... and the game banned me.
Banned until 3:19 which is about an hour from now.

The question is why did your opponents let you secure it 4 straight times.
Given its power, it should be a major point of contention. I think your opponents just dropped the ball

well theres a weekend playlist coming, that looks like its gonna be shotty snipers.
the new API that just launched for stats also revealed a string for something called warzone turbo, where everyone starts at level 9 req. no idea when thats launching.
Personally, i want my stupid games. I want oddball, and ricochet. the more fun gametypes no other shooter has

Content fatigue is really setting in for me too. I have played daily since launch though so that doesn't help.
A lot of modes are missing - a 'fun' social playlist with king of the hill, oddball etc would be nice.

Weird, I always straight quit lost games after the results are up and was never banned, technically that doesn't count as quitting early because the game is over.

Active camo and power weapons are complete shit in Breakout. They need to be removed. The Beta's Breakout gameplay was worlds better (save for the flag addition... that's amazing).

Lol no. They do not. The rush to the Hydra or to the camo is always a fun little beginning of round moment.

Played some SWAT last night and for some reason everything just clicked and I went from scrub to MLG pro. That hot streak then followed me into Team Arena and Slayer and I started to finally feel really good about my play. Breakout is still frustrating unless you're running with a whole squad and communicating.
That said, I really hope they add more playlists and BTB soon. Warzone has been a really fun distraction when I get burnt out on Arena though.

The whole point of them is to add an initial point of contention for both sides. Without it you could just all hang back. With it you have the impetus to get off the line quick time and make a move.

I lost connection in about three games. Still worried if it works I'll just lose it again.
Also knocked me down two ranks... :/

It's most likely an effect of being kicked in Arena before playing warzone, the game must have choked
TheCanisDirus
Member
Lol no. They completely do. It ruins what was a perfectly balanced skill based experience and turns it into a normal Arena-esq rush for the power weapon scenario where it forces you to play in a certain way that your team might not because of how powerful the camo is and you must stop the enemy team from getting it. Frankie... cut this man... leave that stuff in normal Arena and Warzone.
Then you weren't fighting against a very good team that had a chance to win in the first place.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
I think I'm gonna be Gold forever.

Strangely, aiming has felt a bit better by going down to 3 (played on 5 in the beta). Still, close quarters aim acceleration is still ridiculous.
I can't seem to get used to the aiming. I don't know if it's the game or the controller or what. I just can't seem to get it to do what I want.
343 got a lot of things right in the MP, but the lack of maps in the most popular modes may be the game's downfall.
Hate on COD all you want, but the game always ships with a ton of maps and a ton of things to do.
I will keep playing, because I love the game play, but I'm afraid others will get bored quick and move on.

I might have to try that. I've not had any major issues with aiming at 6... the past 80% stick press movement is horribly jerky... but inside that is sweet. Just tricky at times controlling the stick to keep it inside the 80% RoM esp with the huge deadzones.
Does this insane aim speed increase still happen at 80% of stick movement when down on that low of a sensitivity? Hows the inner "target acquisition" aiming field with 3?

Agreed, they need to start getting new content out and adding/changing playlists sooner rather than later.
i bet they don't. They'll see and hear this and still do nothing.
Spawn and get caught in between a firefight. What do you expect with these crappy tiny arena maps and booster equipped unlimited sprint Spartans. Especially bad in FFA. To all you ppl who think everything's just fine and dandy and that its just because there's a "higher skill gap" (rofl), enlighten me, how do I "situational-awareness" my ass out of these situations ^_^
You're right, FFA has too many people on the map. It becomes a fuck of clusters.

Finally got my first Overkill in TS, unfortunately it wasn't an Extermination.

I hope they lower the player count. I haven't played much but overcrowding was blaringly obvious in the time I played. I know spawns in SWAT are atrocious so that may be an issue as well. I hope they address these and other issues soon.
