Halo The Master Chief Collection |OT| Halo Never Died, It Was Just Missing In Action

I can't imagine it's intentional since jumping around the games showed me it only occurs in CE, though I have no idea how they could have missed it. Really bugged me in Truth and Reconciliation while trying to move around and snipe.

Standing up if you push the joystick all the way while crouch walking? Have you guys ever played Halo CE before? Thats how it is.

That aspect is forever lost due to system level parties.

Are there playlists (ranked) that ban party chat? I've been asking for that since party chat came out, and I know I'm not the first.

Done with MP, finally got a game, me and two silent mindless rushers against three guys talking and acting as a team.

Gonna go through all 4 in Legendary instead.

fired zero bullets in the orphanage.

I played it awhile ago on PC, but if it always worked like that I completely forgot. I guess it just stuck out more with me moving around the games so much.
 
Um in halo ce when using the green thumb control option you can't crouch while moving.

Lol

Green thumb is completely fucked up.

In H2C if you use Green Fingers then you can't use the left thumb stick to crouch... Even though the diagram says you can.

In H2A if you use Green Thumb then both switch grenades and zoom are mapped to right bumper together. Wtf...

No, there's no party chat blocking playlists.

Glad to see they're working on ironing out the issues (although I wouldn't have expected otherwise).

I get that people (rightfully) expect to buy a game and have it work perfectly day one but I will personally be playing the fuck out of this collection for the next 5+ years so if the stress helps make a better experience for a few days or even a week or two that's something I'm willing to accept.

That said, I was able to join a Halo 3 MM game after only a couple minutes last night and it ran perfectly. The only time problems started was when I joined a party of several people and we were aimlessly bouncing around impatiently trying to get something to work quickly before the party had to disband.

True, if you move your control stick more than about 75% of the way, you stand up, otherwise you can scurry around. I'm not sure if that's intentional but I'm not a big fan of it.

Must be intentional. I mean, if you could go full speed while crouched (invisible on radar), well... I suppose it'd be pretty hilarious to watch everyone do it, but it'd mean there's no real point to uncrouch except to jump. Though, I can't remember what happened with Halo PC crouch & move with keyboard/mouse.

I used to have some pretty fun matches sneaking around 1v1 or 2v2.

Just got in a game, nobody fucking talks or calls out or anything. I feel like an old man and I'm barely 23. 2007 (when I started on XBL) > 2014

I was in a game and luckily had two teammates speaking with me. Felt nice shouting "Seawall" "crackwall" etc. :) Luck of the draw. I added them just because of that.

Ahhhh, I forgot about it hiding you on the motion tracker. That makes sense then.

Yea Im fairly sure thats just how it works :p

Yeah, it must have slipped my mind too. It's been a while!

Found a game and it's stuck on the menus.
Had I not bought this game digitally, I would probably have returned it by now, and rebought it cheaper once they released a working version of the game.

Same was nice calling out people and getting help. That being said not enough people talk it won't be as good this time around.

Broken games unacceptable.

What's the story behind that gif? Was he looking for an injury payout?

More often than not I have a feeling we won't be running into lobbies where people are talking. It's insane, because I know that Halo 2 was always chatty. I won't bother talking if no one else is talking, but man did it help giving those call outs.
 
Anyone else finding the controls on the Ghost for H2 to be super stiff? I don't remember it being like that originally. It's like my sensitivity goes to 1 when I hop on a ghost. Can't turn or boost turn properly at all.

I might be seeing things.

I noticed if the player side bar doesn't have Searching... with appropriate player slots underneath your gametag, the game won't find games.

Is that just a visual bug?
 
What a damn mess this game is. No matchmaking games are working. My connection with friends keeps messing up. and the game freezes randomly.

Did 343 not QA this game? So many apparent things are broken!

I officially hate Halo music. I had the game since Saturday.... Hearing the music over and over and over again waiting for a game is driving me insane. I wish I could turn off the damn music!

You are probably the first person to say that. Wow.

Also seems like there was a hotfix for MM and Active Roster seems to be working now.

Is there no JIP in custom games?

I am 90% this is a really bad bug QA didn't find as it always is 100% reproduced from suspend/resume. Nobody soak tested this game in QA, come on! Probably just wanted to play Halo and said fudge it to any real testing.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
The dead zone on the sticks is absolutely massive. Like, frustratingly so.

In H2A, do this test.

Look all the way down. At your feet. Don't touch anything but the right (looking) stick. Slowly move it upwards. The stick has to be pushed about 75-80% of the way up to begin lifting your vision back upwards.
