He does buy packs all the time though.
People need to stop getting such aggressive hard-ons for the sniper.
Just played a match of BTB Slayer where I was gunning in a warthog with a dude. Doing so, we got 8 kills within like, 20 seconds. After getting two more kills -- one being the sniper in their base -- my driver jumps out, and grabs the sniper. I kill the dude coming up behind him, and then proceed to move on because clearly the dude was being an idiot.
He died 15 seconds later, not even taking a single damn shot.

I was playing a few games with Chig before, and I so so so nearly had an overkill :'(

Haven't read through the thread so not sure if this is a known bug but its a pain in the ass!
Im playing solo campaign and started mission 8, I died about 10 mins into the mission but instead of loading my last checkpoint I get kicked to the main dashboard. Load up the game again and try to resume but once again as the level is loading it suddenly goes back to the main dashboard. Trying this a few more times with the same result I restart the level and everything works fine. This time however Im about half an hour into the mission and I die. As its loading once again Im kicked to the dashboard. FFS!
Anyone else have this? Ive tried going offline and it makes no difference. Im playing solo on the swords of sanghelios, heroic difficulty.
Ive checked that i dont have any skulls on but ive noticed that the iron skull is 'cannot revive or be revived.' Solo restart mission on death. This is exactly the problem but I dont even have it active

Snipedown has spent hundreds on packs already + plays waaaaay more than an average player.
Not even close to What should be the norm
It shouldn't take hundreds of hours to get a measly one legendary. I didn't say increase total number of drops. Just that ultra rare and legendary items become more frequent... Up the drop rates of those

Yes this is a known issue, 343 is looking into it.
I think the recent patch messed with checkpoints in the Campaign unintentionally, they're working on a fix but from what I remember the only solution currently is to restart the mission

same thing happened to me on Deadlock. They had our flag and I had theirs and I was sitting in the stair well. Guy starts ARing me in the back.
Why does Halo still have friendly fire?
War zone is just about getting points basically. Capturing bases just gives you a better vantage point to get to enemy AI. Like if you have garage for example, you can get to the loading bay or any of the hunters easily. Essentially try to kill all of the 150 point bosses
I only use reqs for bosses and enemy vehicles. The ant and smg combo works fine for players

Game is seriously so much more fun with the fixed pistol.
I'm onyx in arena but hovered around 1600 prepatch and now I haven't lost a single game post patch.

So capturing those places is purely for spawn?
So my goal is to kill bosses for points to win?
Pretty much. You get hardly any points for holding the bases, but like he said holding bases is great for spawning closer to bosses. Killing bosses is where most of the points come from
Nah u got points every 5 seconds based on how many bases you have captured. But being able to spawn on specific based also gives a big advantage when going after bosses. You need to do both.

So what happens when it says "Unable to retrieve session data"
Seems like I don't get anything at all for the match I just played.

Why no killjoy medal?

Same problem here :/ See page before this one... Mind you, restarting the level on Legendary ( or whatever difficulty ) and you die, you have to start all over.

My mind always thinks that a ground pound on a warthog would do some big damage, sadly it does nothing at all and it's a shame
You get your req points but it might take a little bit to update, nothing is lost thankfully.

I've beaten the campaign, which I loved, and am making my way through a few multiplayer matches. God I've missed Halo Team Slayer! One question, where are there post game medals?
don't think you can see them. in fact, I don't think the game has a list of medal anywhere

You can only see them online right now. Not sure if they're going to update this and add into game, though.
That controls update can't come soon enough. There is a massive deadzone for me that makes it tedious and more difficult then it should be to make minor adjustments to my reticle. I'm hoping it's the game and not my elite.
It's really noticeable for me when I am moving around trying to keep my reticle where I expect people's heads to appear. When in a battle I sometimes have to strafe to get my reticle to move that tiny amount necessary for a headshot because otherwise I can end up over aiming.

yeah, honestly i'm sticking to having fun in BTB and warzone until the control update hits then I can continue my progress in 4 v 4 competitive.
Do you have an elite controller. I can adjust the sensitivity on mine but the deadline isn't bothering me in this game. Maybe it's the longer right stick helping.
Just played a toe to toe warzone match that came down to who killed warden.
Its kind of a really strange game mode but it finally clicked for me so I'm going to stick with it and see if I can have some fun with it.
How many warzone maps in this game?

My son got launched across the Standoff yesterday. Made me chuckle and thought I'd share.

3.
I love Warzone but that's the biggest reason I don't play it more often. Small number of maps means you play them over and over again so I never play Warzone for long periods of time.

That looked fun! Crazy stuff like that happened all the time in Halo 3. I don't remember this happening much in Reach and 4. That's why I like this game so much.
That's a case for a lot of the 4v4 maps, small and dense. Rig is the worst offender though.
Yes I have an elite. I imagine the longer stick could in fact help with this issue but I don't have much interest in using that. I should try my scuf again and compare the dead zone I guess. They did say the update would allow you to define your own dead zone somehow.
I use one long stick for aimer with game sens at 3
I might try the higher response settings on elite. You didn't have luck with them?
I thought they did
I played one this morning and it said teammate joined
Also quitters are plaguing every mode right now nor just btb
Nope, it's not back. I think half the problem is disconnections too. Some games we will be winning and suddenly we are two players down. I don't think anyone would quit whilst winning.
Wow I didn't know this.
Yeah this happened to me. Winning on two seperate BTB's, d/c'd each time. Not sure whose end the problem was on, but there's more then one reason someone suddenly drops.
