do you play big team battle cuz thats the only way to play halo 4 atm so thats why if you never play it


I actually play that a lot, since it gives me a lot of players and a variety of maps. I got close to playing H4 once and luckily someone voted for Avalanche H3 at the last moment.

I get into H4 matches a lot. I don't actually mind it cuz with some of the changes it's not so bad!

I still think Halo 3s sensitivity is screwed up in mcc

Yea it feels weirdly over sensitive compared to the other games.

I cranked it up to High (5) and found it PERFECT with the X1 Controller's analog (^____^)


Also

Playing Halo 3 on Heroic for the first time (beat it prior on Normal via 360)

HANDS DOWN, HALO 3 STILL HAS THE BEST CAMPAIGN!!!11!!!!1!

....tho H2:A still has the best SFX mix.
 
Wow, the hornet on Bloodline is way over powered. It feels like they didn't even test it to make sure it was balanced.

Yeah I noticed that too.
Have you tried shooting at it? I ask this because I think many people are often scared by vehicles and think they need a power weapon to take 'em out. You can shoot the pilot out rather easily, especially with a Sniper. If the Hornet gets close enough to kill you and you only have a BR, then it should to have the upper hand by nature of it behind a vehicle.

Focused fire shreds Hornets rather easily as well.
 
at the speed these updates are coming it's going to be 2015 before single player fixes are here, I can't wait to see how halo 5 betas matchmaking handles itself.

Getting to play on midship and lockout was really great and makes me upset all over again that the online isn't solid yet. Dang it, man.
 
I dunno, halo 3 sensitivity feels noticeably inconsistent with the other games

That's because it IS different... but in a better way

Basically H1, 2, and ODST always had somewhat stiff analog controls (and hence relied a bit too much Aim-Assist for my tastes), especially when rotating thru the Y - X Axis.... like there just wasn't enough range there.

Reach and seemingly Halo 3 now, fixed this :)
 
Those patch notes seem to include some pretty significant fixes.

Party searching was incredibly bad, and apparently they addressed matchmaking times, fixed getting split up post game, etc.

I think I'll actually try playing with friends again.

The worst part about this is that once MM works we'll still have to deal with SMG/AR starts, Epitaph with shield doors, Snowbound with shield doors, The Pit with attic spawns, etc, etc, etc, etc.

Nah, it's not a good way.

I play 6/7 sensitivity in CE, 2 and 4. I'm playing between 3 and 4 in Halo 3. 4 feels too twitchy and 3 feels too sluggish. I played 6 sensitivity in original Halo 3. MCC Halo 3's sensitivity feels off even compared to the original version.

lobby froze on me when my party left, It said it was creating teams, but I could not back out at all. I could still look at all the maps in the playlist though.

Not sure why everything they fix seems to add a few more game breaking bugs to the mix.

All that happened for several minutes while searching in team slayer with a party. We've literally spent the last hour trying to play a single game.

Yeah, Havent played H3 since its original release, so cant give a decent point of reference.
Either way, ive adjusted to H3 and prefer how it feels, though I did see other people post about how they had to turn it down.

The pit with attic spawns was pretty weird. Can't even remember the last time that happened/when they fixed it.

Ok when match making works, and it doesn't lag. This is fecking awesome to play no lie there. So much nostalgia

Yep, I've had a decent number of games now with even teams in multiple playlists. Amazing game when it works. Still running into bugs every few matches but it's a lot better than it was.
 
While getting into games is easier it's still a busted game. Half the time as soon as it loads you are brought to a screen that says game over and acts as though everyone in the session is in your 'party' and will not allow you to leave them and won't let you into modes that have specifc party limits. Also, I was spawning in mid game dying. And is the spawning a little lame to anyone? Sometimes I spawn right in front of a fight or just right in front of an enemy.

Just got the game tonight. No issues joining anything so far. Mustve been lucky haha.

Anyways, why doesn't halo 4 have its own specific playlist? Never got to try halo 4 mp before, so was just wondering. Ive heard so many mixed opinions. Seems like a love it or hate it. Thanks!

It had its own dedicated playlist, but it was temporarily removed for consolidation purposes. It'll be back at some point.

Terrific. Still not getting any BTB matches. "SEARCHING FOR MORE PLAYERS" since the first patch.

Back to GTA I guess.

Halo CE is so good. If not just for the fact that it's always AR/Pistol start. Those spawns, though...

Those spawns...
