You expect 343 to even care for the MCC when they had the Halo 5 beta to worry about?
I also seriously doubt people were even working on patches for the past 3 weeks if this latest one still didn't do anything.

Already posted my experiences with the update. In case anyone else was wondering how well all that WORKING THROUGH THE HOLIDAYS for a MONTH was working out for a bunch of other people:
That should just about answer anyones questions.

I get your drift.
Personally, if 343 gave us a toggle that makes it look like classic zoom when you scope then I'd just call it zoom. I've always associated ADS with movement penalties and shoving your rifle butt into your nose/faceplate. Automatics getting a boost in accuracy can happen with ADS or Zoom really. As for weapon buffs, those are just special weapon traits (unless it was a buff to all weapons). That's just how I define and differentiate them though. Is it different for you?
I'm not really sure how I feel about autos having zoom now. On the one hand it can give them more use in the sandbox. On the other hand they aren't exactly skillful as you pointed out. Maybe if they had an alt fire when zoomed in it would be better? Not really sure.
lol I really can't get over how dumb it feels to say Smart Scope

Sup. I got bored this weekend and felt like drawing, so I finally made a Binary Rifle redesign (two versions with different fronts, let me know which is less bad). My take is that it's a Legendary version of the Binary Rifle wielded by the Didact(s).
Hopefully soon I will color a final version like I did with my BR and Light Rifle.

Beautiful. Version 1 is my preference.

I like the barrel on the bottom one, looks less chunky.
I think they're both superb but Verzion 2 looks more like a sniper rifle to me due to the longer barrel. Would definitely love to see these designs in the gamesSup.

Thanks! Dick Puncher didn't seem Forerunner enough.
Ah, thanks! Already two different opinions...
Thanks!
Yeah, I was trying to play with making it chunkier since the Binary is one-hit kill as opposed to a traditional Halo sniper where you have to get a headshot. It makes sense to me that it would be beefier, but I think I took it a little too far on that one.

Yeah, I'd also prefer number two. I like the longer, sleekness to it, but I also like how the underside evokes a classical era bayonet. Definitely well-fitting to be a Legendary/Elite version of the rifle.
I'd love to see you do a Plasma Rifle/Plasma Repeater concept. Maybe a Legendary version would be like the Covenant (Remnant) equivalent to the SAW? In my head I'm thinking of super fast fire rate similar to the Callisto NTG or Cyclone from Perfect Dark.
It definitely shows as it looks like a heavy rifle.
Maybe Version 1 could be its default state but once zoomed it shifts into Version 2? Perhaps in its regular fire mode it has 7 shots but a single shot when zoomed uses the entire clip.

Ok, so my hopes and dreams for the mcc are dead, what should we play until H5 comes out, I'm not sure i could rock Destiny for that long...

I don't understand, is MCC still totally broken for you guys? I played like 7-8 games this evening in various playlists with only one instance of uneven teams (5v4) and one Halo 4 game that ended early for whatever reason. Matchmaking times were tolerable and I never encountered any lag. If it had released in this state, I'd have been completely satisfied with my purchase. Why quit playing it now that it's finally, mostly working?
I should note that I was playing solo, however. Idk if that's why I've had smooth sailing.
ooo now things are getting kinky .gif

For some reason this reminds me of the MCC.

No you see, that .gif only works if the person was trying to hammer the septagon into the circle hole, and was breaking the board around the hole in the process for it to fit.

It's not even about finding matches, the matches i find are complete blowouts, and it's just not fun. Which sums up the entire MP section of the game, it's just not fun anymore putting up with the myriad of issues that still plague the game.
But it didn't release in this state so why imagine that it did? I felt like putting my controller through the wall when after minutes of searching a BTB game, I get 12 players, but the game becomes 7v5 instead of 6v6. How the hell does that happen? Especially after now nearly 10 gigs of patches where they've expressly said they've fixed uneven teams?
It's no longer about good enough. This game should work perfectly, or each mistake or problem feels amplified. So the next crash I get, the next time it takes 4 minutes for a match, the next laggy match, it amplifies the feeling of, screw it, I'm done.
I'm so beyond it being tolerable, especially when there's a million games that work much better. It either works without issues, or it doesn't.
3 out of the 4 holes are empty though, and his body is being propped up by a temporary brace. ie: a patch
Your point would make it all the more fitting though

And its gotten to a point where no matter what state this game ends in, even if it's miraculously fixed, even the tiniest crash will cause the most frustrating rage fits from me because my patience with this game is literally 0.
Playing solo works and has worked for a few patches now.
Parties were broken two patches ago and are still completely non functional.
Yeah, they really can't win. The game will never be in an acceptable state because it shipped in such a terrible one. This will be a prime example in years to come on why NOT to ship a game until it's done.
MCC will never be in a state where the community will be happy with it and you better believe life support will end for this thing once ODST is properly patched in.

I loved the hell out of the beta and Halo 5s movement just felt so good to me.
I always rushed the sword on truth and got more kills with it than I would have thought I could due to stronger weapons. Thruster really helps close the gap, I got a really neat clip using it yesterday. Check it
Love this turn around.

Building up a positive rapport with the game will alleviate that kind of reaction.

MCC journal, day 1:
Team H2A: matched quickly, game of Warlock was good.
Big Team: waited about 5 minutes. No match.
Team H2A: Sanctuary, 5v5 was good except for a glaring sound issue.

MCC journal, day 2:
Matched quickly into Warlock, decent match until 2 people quit. 3v5 being unplayable, I was forced to quit.
Rematches into Stonetown. 4v4. Almost a real match... Until 2 people leave on my team ruining everything. What the fuck is with leavers?

No, it also uses blocks.
Depends on how you define blocks. It has a lot more curved pieces from what we've seen so far. And there will probably be terrain pieces if H2A is any indication.
However if you mean "Can we alter the maps properties directly"... *shrug*

MCC journal, day 3:
Team H2A on Warlord, decent 4v4. Went MVP. Some guy said he "liked my voice" and that we should "play again."
Team H2A on Lockdown. People wanted Oddball for some reason. And also for some reason, the game ended at 50 points instead of 200, lol...
