The whole situation is pretty stupid regardless of what it is. But it falls in line with recent 343i/Microsoft fuck ups, so I won't act like this is surprising.

I've logged many hours in MCC, so it was pretty disappointing that I wasn't given the opportunity to do that survey. Hopefully they send it out again.

Nice, now we need 343 to add this map and implement the new radar to Doubles so that mode doesn't play like 🐕 doodoo.

Frame dips in social Slayer. Nothing is safe from the drops when it comes to forge made maps.

Tackling frame drops is one of my main goals for the Classic Playlist, but it's a tough battle.

What's going on with the quality of the stream, is this Halo 5: Guardians for the Xbox 360?

that classic feel
halo stream lol
It will take couple years for 343 to figure out how to set up streams properly

If you didn't, what would you have to complain about?
We got it figured out. Man is breakout terrible now. Haven't played it since the changes.

In Warzone vehicle spam is a blight to be sure, but did every randy forget about the laser?
The new meta is to use the Sentinel Beam against aerial vehicles.
I'm not shitting you. It does fucking nuts damage against banshees and wasps.

So it's the new Halo 2 SMG eh? That thing frikkin d e s t r o y e d Banshees.
Not sure what the TTK is like on the banshee, but with a shieldless wasp you're looking at a single overheat worth of beam.
That weapon barely pops up in req. packs. It's weird how some weapons and vehicles show up much less frequently then you think they would given their level and rarity.

It has begun. Re-downloading Halo 5 and TMCC. Should take a couple days lol. Hoping that aim update comes out soon. Time to go back to grinding reqs again since I've been gone for so long.

343 actually fixed its drop rate if I remember correctly. It apparently wasn't intentional.
Over this long weekend I've had horrendous teleprorting and at least 4 games where I was disconnected and a further two I never loaded into

At least you can find games. I literally tried at 10.30pm last night in WZ FF, Skirmish and Ranked only to not find any matches and turn H5 off altogether. Ugh.

Oh man I'm sorry. That sounds really frustrating. =/ I think it's time for me to retire this game for good and finally work on my back log when I get a 20 min session of opportunity. Heh.

I'm in the same boat with backlog, Batman AK & ME:Andromeda await some more sessions.

Oh my Halo 5 is so unforgiving if you haven't played in a while. I jumped on early this morning and tried some games. Got obliterated haha. Also, do people not play Warzone Assault anymore? I tried to get a game and it never found a match. I imagine most people play the other versions instead.
Not sure, haven't played WZ Assault in a while since we were grinding commendations. I still prefer it personally if you're solo. If you get crushed it's over quickly, otherwise it's a bit easier for randoms to defend.

I havent played regular warzone in months. I always got wrecked. No fun whatsoever.

I'll be chilling playing team slayer in MCC until Sept. 8th if anyone wants to play sometime.

Yep that's why I always played assault. It's quick, fun if you win, not so painful if you lose. I played assault exclusively when i was req grinding. Maybe people have lost interest and the population is really small now.
eh for me it was 50/50. Usually I was focused on trying to complete my own weapon or vehicle commendations to care about the loss. But I'd still get really frustrated.

Good golly they're finally, 18+ months after release, enabling party matching. Waaaaaay too late to save the average solo player who was hounded off of the game but I'll give it another spin out of curiosity. If it doesn't work out I'll continue to play MCC BTB going +20 every game instead. Everybody got choices
