You gotta chuck them in deep when the panels open up to reveal the furnace. If your nades don't go deep enough, then they won't trigger the explosion.

It's a lot harder than I remember, for some reason. And then I finally get them all to explode and I just drop dead for no reason. :lol

You were probably getting eaten by Flood spores, that's what I always blame it on. Sentinels melt my shields, then Flood spores eat me alive, fml.

So many glitches and freezes in co-op. Every time I finished a level, the game froze up completely and I had to restart again. One time, my controller stopped responding even though it was clearly turned on. Tried another controller and it turned on, but no response. Couldn't exit to dashboard or anything, only a reboot fixed it.

I'll give MS something, they were brilliant with that TV/Snap feature. Never got more use than during this Halo launch week.


*Continues to search for games while watching Speed with Keanu Reeves*.
 
Lol pretty much the same for me. Though at least I could play wow for a little today

And there needs to be an objective playlist
I agree with the need for an objective playlist. When I actually can get in a match everyone always votes slayer. I don't mind playing slayer or anything but some variety would definitely be welcome and I've always really enjoyed the objective modes in Halo.

I've played one CTF so far and rest was slayer :(

Even king of the hill. Anything!

Seriously is this MCC or the X1 (Or both)?
Achievements just aren't popping immediately. They're popping quite a while after which is a little infuriating to me.
That and the OS just isn't being as quick as I'd hope it to be. Snap achievements, scroll down the list, titles and etc. Don't appear, then sometimes just freaks out and takes me back to the top (which is even more annoying than usual since this game probably has the most achievements).
Then just before got weird glitches in the achievements app (full version), like black triangles? Being cut out in the tiles? Took a sec or two to adjust but I'm just getting more and more infuriated with the OS.

It simply isn't as quick as it should be and for another question is why don't achievements just unlock offline like they used to then sync to your profile when online?
(That and not quite on topic with MCC, but the ... In the full achievements app just opens up the snap version which again is annoying, I have to scroll down a loong list to see certain achievements?

I just played a match on a Halo 3 map, and the AR just blows. I emptied an entire clip into an enemy with no kill. People are bullet sponges in this game, and i feel like I could do far better if there was a mode with no shields.

SWAT is the best mode in Halo. By a mile. Halo 4 SWAT >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> All other Halo MP
 
Pop into the armoury and grab the rocket launcher. You can't miss.

You know, that's my usual strategy. :lol Thought I'd mix things up a little this time.

Never again. Holy crap, that took me way too long. Must've played this campaign a million times and I just couldn't do it. :lol

achievements are such ass on the x1, it's the OS itself that has this problem. They really need to scrap this whole OS it's just garbage

I feel for the people who dislike constant BRs. I was the only one voting for a Team Slayer on Warlord. Everybody else voted for BRs on Bloodline.

The only problem was that it was 2v2...

Instances like that are when I'll pick a diff playlist. Other than that, BRs all day.

Seems everything is working now for me. Takes three or four minutes to find a match, but then keeps rolling once I'm in. Looking forward to the adding all of the game types back in.
 
So.... after a long week of hard work, I've finally had the time to unbox my brand new white xbox one and renew my xbox live gold subscription.

However, when i inserted the halo collection into the xbox, this message just appeared.

I'm having an issue with it.

SERIOUSLY how can I make an unlocked achievement pop?

The achievements get in a queue. When that queue banks up, achievements pop late.

I had a Titanfall achievement pop 2 days later. Its a huge downside everything being done server side.

360 had this perfect. Unlock locally, instant sync when it gets a connection. I don't think people appreciate how Godly the 360 OS is because they're too busy trolling with "LOL ads".

I'm trying to solo Legendary all missions in Halo CE. It's been awhile since I've played Halo campaign and I haven't been doing great. I'm on Truth and Reconciliation and cannot for the life of me get past the two hunters in the second hangar. It's hard enough getting all the elites dead. It doesn't help that I didn't know I had to keep my damn sniper. Anyone got any tips? I might just restart on heroic or something so I actually complete the game before next millenia.

I hope they add an infection/flood playlist when it's working properly. Such a fun gamemode to play when you're not bothered about competitive.

Yeah, with a Sniper RIfle it's actually easy, otherwise you'll need to keep pounding them until they drop, no other way around it.

I agree, what was wrong with the old achievement system that they had to change it? It's dumb.

As for the queue being filled, I don't understand exactly. While that specific acheivement won't pop I've had others that I earned later pop on the spot just fine. It's been a few days. =(

Watching the terminal videos all the way through seems to crash co-op games. There's no wireless LAN co-op? I got "connection lost" on local network in the Library and Keyes in CE/CEA.

CE is still brilliant.

Playing through Halo 1 for the first time... God damn... To think that people were bitching about Dragon Age 2 reusing the same levels over and over... That's nothing compared to that game.

Yep. The level design in all of the Bungie Halo games is pretty hilarious. Borderline bad.

Yeah. I think it may have been MS's misguided ideals by putting Windows 8 on the system. NXE was the best 360 dashboard for me, everything since has been a step backwards for me.
Snap could be good if it worked as well as it could.

Today is the day Spartans battle one another in the first ever MCC Throwdown! I'm very excited for this and hope to start something that becomes tradition. Now I know there are numerous issues right now with MCC and understand that if you play tonight expect problems!

I have a backup plan in case we can't get a clean 8v8 game on Blood gulch so please be patient with me (and the game).

Here are this weeks signups. If you would like to get on the backup list tonight please send me a PM with your GT and skill level (1-10).
