[Takashi]

Finally hit the half way mark. It's been like 5 hours.

its been over a day and im at 26%

 

[CrimzonSamurai]

Is anyone having luck with MM on a particular playlist? Been trying Team Slayer for about 20 minutes with about 3 minutes per attempt.

 

[Diablohead]

Really disappointed the terminals don't work.

do you have the halo channel installed?

 

[Razorskin]

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

Most likely.

 

[Papercuts]

so you can pick a player on matchmaking and boot them like you are the host... ok wow that's really bad.

Hahahahaha, really? Wow.

Really disappointed the terminals don't work.

It sent me to the marketplace to download an app. They've all worked since then though it's pretty clunky.

 

[everyday math]

do you have the halo channel installed?

Yeah. Whenever it goes to it. All I get is a black screen.

 

[Twin Tails]

Really disappointed the terminals don't work.

nvm

 

[Dub117]

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?

I think you are right

holy fuck
i can't
just...how?
Also, experiences some FPS drops on the H2A match that I played for a whole two minutes before the other team quiet (don't blame them, it was 2v1).

 

[Diablohead]

Yeah. Whenever it goes to it. All I get is a black screen.

343 need to stop sticking the videos online like this, they were on disc for halo 1 360, why not now?

 

[Son of Sam]

at the sniper level for Halo1, whoever says this game doesn't hold up to todays games is wrong.

Halo 1 is still the best lol it's crazy how precise that formula is

 

[jackdoe]

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.

I noticed this instantly when I played the Halo CE campaign.

yeah, this! The only way I ever made it bearable the first time was having a buddy.

I am at the same exact location that you are at. It looks great. I switch to original mode and this level really shows the difference hugely.

nah man that shit needs some sprint

 

[malfcn]

Fucking Best Buy.
First time I don't use store pick up.

The book comes today.
They shipped the game today.

WTF.

 

[Diablohead]

holy fuck
i can't
just...how?

if you watched the invitational on the weekend some of the players mashing A when they died also bought up the kick box as the score menu appeared, it's been there for a while in this case.

 

[soxinthebox]

I've ended up in several matches by myself. As in, no other players. Just me and the map, but still a ranked match.

It's a deliberate design decision. 343 have made a commentary on the futility of conflict and social interactions when the space we inhabit will continue on uncaring long after we're gone.

 

[everyday math]

Who knows. I'm gonna delete it and re-download. Maybe that will help.

 

[Papercuts]

Who knows. I'm gonna delete it and re-download. Maybe that will help.

If that doesn't work try to hold the power button on the xbox to fully shut it off and reboot. It's pretty much the magical remedy for a slew of weird issues that pop up.

 

[JackHerer]

I've had the game freeze on me at least 8 times so far. I just go to dashboard and quit the game from there to reset. It's really annoying.

On the plus side matchmaking has been working, even if it is depressingly slow.

 

[HGStormy]

Both of you must have broken control sticks since i can crouch & move in ce

Same thing happens to me. If you move the stick >too< far it stops crouching. Suuuper annoying.

 

[Strider]

I have found games where there was no searching on the side like that.

 

[E92 M3]

Just got into an H2 classic game, went 13-4. FELT so good to be back. Damn game didn't age at all. Now if only I didn't have to try for half hour to play one match.

Thanks. Will give it a shot if this doesn't work.

 

[Strider]

Anyone interested in trying to get a 4v4 customs group for H2 anniversary going? I can get into matches pretty frequently but the team balancing is just so broken and I'm tired of rumble.

 

[Sub_Level]

It's a deliberate design decision. 343 have made a commentary on the futility of conflict and social interactions when the space we inhabit will continue on uncaring long after we're gone.

It's no coincidence that playing as the Arbiter bared parallels to Raiden in MGS2. Halo's approach to a post modernistic deconstruction of that which is unto itself (a twin stick console shooter) has long gone unappreciated. It's a shame that 343 had to bring it to the forefront with this collection, as mentally apt players of past Halo titles could already see the threads of existential monotony subtly weaved into levels like Delta Halo or Two Betrayals.

Guys just a friendly reminder

fuck the library

LOL

I thought they said they would reduce that level or something?? Did that not happen?

 

[Welfare]

How fast was the install for you guys?

 

[garbagejuicer]

Invited friends over to play and couldn't get into a single match. This is ridiculous. How could they send the game out in this state?

 

[BeekleMatter]

It's not meant to, but it almost always does.

Depends right? H2A is ranked so it wont let you stay in the same lobby. Other playlists let you keep playing with the same people.

How fast was the install for you guys?

3 hrs.

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

So I broke my UI. Had to dash and quit to get it to function properly again. Thanks 343i, what I've played is fantastic but the amount of work it takes to even get there is frustrating.

 

[bananafactory]

Anyone else have problems with their xbox randomly shutting down? It's not just Halo I noticed it with D4 and Forza Horizon. I turn it off in instant on mode, and usually it works. But sometimes I leave it for a while and notice that pressing the controller doesn't turn it on. So I press the main button on the system and it boots up but my session is gone and I have to boot the game back up

 

[The Elite]

Lol. Halo:MCC on Agrnts of SHIELD.

 

[Oakcliff]

Got into a game of BTB assault on avalanche. no lag, brought back memories.

 

[Hatchtag]

holy fuck
he wasn't kidding
I just booted the entire enemy team from my game
What the fuck, 343?

 

[Welfare]

15 hrs

 

[Ghazi]

So you can't actually disable medals in campaign? Lame.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

I just started a match and it fixed itself for me. The only issue I'm having is matchmaking. None of the other stuff bugs me, personally. But its still stuff that really should not be an issue :/

 

[ElRenoRaven]

I'll be damned. For the first time in 12 plus hours I actually have a couple folks showing up on my roster. Granted more than 3 are on MCC but hell the fact it's showing anyone is an improvement.

 

[BeforeU]

Going to sleep. Fuck it. No way this is gonna be working again anytime soon.

 

[everyday math]

holy fuck

What the fuck, 343?

....what? ._.

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

Oh and what the fuck is up with the matchmaking?

Played it says 4v4 yet there are 10 slots. Playlists says 8v8 yet there are 12 slots. What's going on with this game?

 

[Hatchtag]

....what? ._.

It was H2A in the Team Slayer playlist. You can legitimately do that. What in the fuck.
As soon as people learn how to do this, matchmaking's gonna be even more unplayable.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Give whoever came up with the voting screen in matchmaking a raise.

That shit is dope lol

 

[Xone9]

holy shit Halo 1 single player looks and plays awesome.

 

[RoKKeR]

I'll be damned. For the first time in 12 plus hours I actually have a couple folks showing up on my roster. Granted more than 3 are on MCC but hell the fact it's showing anyone is an improvement.

Yeah Roster seems to be coming back to life.

 

[Son of Sam]

It's all about Halo CE MP. They really only needed to focus on that. Halo 2 can't compare
