wack
although i do have a nvme ssd, the optimizations are great, i used to run at 40 fps now im at 70
110gb on MS store
Season 5 is pretty cool but please for the love of god optimize the last gen console versions. One, One S versions (dunno about One X) are legit unplayable
and its stuck at 0% cause MS store shenanigans
just as i was about to complain i finally got the other map lmao
legit had 9 matches of the needler map
whats that one called, forbidden?
finally got an extraction let's gooo
why cant the MS Store just work man 
why doesnt extraction have its own playlist
I think it's because the new maps are getting highlighted first
Firefight: King of the Hill will not be available at the launch of Season 5, it will be released later in the season per the release announcement
ah
great
needler map is fine, the other maps look like there from 1988, my arm models wont even load in
We've known this since they announced it
They said mid season last week
is there any common error/fix for the low quality models for weapons and arms?

didnt see, thank
Do you have an NV GPU? I just updated drivers to the release from today and maybe fixed it?
I didn’t remember ig
Anyway new season still fire
new season is good, only weird thing is no extraction playlist at launch (imo)
No offense to you since you stated you just didn't remember. I feel like people care enough to come here to say things, but don't care enough to pay attention to the situation beforehand so it's annoying how frequently it happens
but first extraction game was fun
Ok
Im confused its 100 items but in a 50 tire pass i read waypoint and im still confused and whats with the 27 day limit is that how long we have or what ?
if you buy the pass, it never expires. If you don't, then it will be slotted out when the operation starts up in November.
and you would then have to buy it to progress it.
to avoid free players not getting everything, the free rewards are front loaded. You only have to do 20 tiers.
So i have to buy the different bp or everything else going be free and only have to buy this one BP
where´s FIREFIGHT ??
soon but not now
🙃
Firefight: King of the Hill will not be available at the launch of Season 5, it will be released later in the season per the release announcement
I hope it's satire. I beg
The Blog explains everything pretty in-depth
https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/battle-pass-operations-season-5
With the release of Season 5: Reckoning on October 17, some of Halo Infinite’s content and engagement vectors are evolving versus what’s been offered in the game thus far. Today, we’d like to get you up to speed on changes you’ll find with the Battle Pass and in-game “Events” (transitioning into “Operations”) once the new […]
So it will cost 500 to keep but that 500 will come form the bp so i wont need to spend real money(if i dont want to) then its just a mini bp if im understanding this right @coarse dagger
Let me see if I can condense this down
Ty
is it that bad?
Honestly 30FPS looks fine because the xbox one is pusihng for a full 1080p
most Xone games push for 900p
Anyone figured out if the buttons on the Forbidden map do anything?
Hows the update
Battle Passes and Operations
Each Seasonal Battle Pass is 50 tiers - the first 20 tiers are the free track
If you pay 1000 credits for the 50 tier pass, it's yours to complete whenever you want
The free track will be available until the first Operation is released - for Season 5 that's November 14th
Operations are what used to be events, think of them as Events 2.0
20 tiers of free unlockable rewards, each operation runs for about 4 to 6 weeks
Similar to the Battle Pass, the free rewards end when the operation ends but you can pay 500 credits to keep it and continue earning towards it or 2000 credits to complete it outright
For clarity - Season 5 is longer than 1 month, it has multiple operations as part of its Season
It's just that the free track ends when the first operations starts
https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/battle-pass-operations-season-5
I think that about covers the major parts
I think I understand it now too and it's not too bad since they give you a couple weeks instead of one or Two weeks
Ahh ok ty and im sorry @coarse dagger
Anyone else found that they're spawning in the sight lines of enemies and vice versa more often?
Alright bartlepas unlocked going to check out cross core helmets really quick before I leave
something broke? first game and everyone on enermy team left after 3 seconds into the game
game ended in tie lol because nothing happened
Holy crap Morrrigan and Emiles.helmit look so crazy on the MK7
I have somma y Options I don't know which one I want to stick with
Anyone know the name of the map used in the AI forge presentation?
Anyone else notice there are no challange swaps on the season pass? I mean those are the actually useful one, but we have XP boosts that no one uses.
Those are probably going to be rewards on the Operations.
why would you need a challenge swap, the challenges don't even need to be looked at they're so easy they just do themselves while you play
I play BTB almost exclusively and can't hit crap with a sniper rifle.
Why is it that this game in particular changes it's mouse feel after every season :/
I think they messed with some magnetism settings
That is very unfortunate for you bc btb is ruled by sniper rifles
At least it doesn't feel like I'm aiming on a skating rink like it was in S1 anymore
Depends on how you play, if I am in the air I can generally out play them.
Everyone ignores the banshee until it killed your shock troopers and a hog.
It may counter but there is only 2 per map, and if you know where that sniper is set up you can easily avoid them.
As snipers in BTB are no where near as mobile in squad battle or arena.
I wanna be in your lobbies, that is all.
I finished the weekly challenge in 6 games this week
I suck, you don't.
You can get better, king
what happened to the halo 5 to pc discussion chat?
I have decided on Morrrigan helmet on my MK7. With the chest Knife.. still have to look at shoulders
Forge AI on the Infection maps is just Lone Wolf lite
im not sure 343 ever wavered on it, really - pretty sure they have decisively said its not planned
Interesting. Thanks anyways 🙂
or rather there are no plans at this time
Framework wise it wouldnt work as part of MCC, and considering how they are stretched today I cant imagine they'd want to take on another development instance
They arent even doing playlist management on mcc anymore I cant imagine porting over an entire title and then maintaining it
that is simply not true. Some players are always thrown into one-sided loss matches, so those win-challenges are almost impossible for them. Lower skilled people are consistantly being thrown into matches with way higher skilled players, so it's almost impossible for them to get kill streaks, etc.
And then you have highly specific power weapon kills wich are extremely annoying, because the chance of getting in a map with that specific weapon is very small
After all these updates , the graphics settings are keep resetting ... wth is wrong with this game, really
you should try playing on m&k the game feels different again
also has anyone noticed worse than usual shot registration issues?
Geez. Why is it that I keep getting pitted against people who absolutely wreck my team?
Anytime anyone is in a vehicle, they know instantly where I am and I get downed. Whenever I'm in a vehicle, people board me instantly, and so many people have laser accuracy with their weapons. Its uncanny
Is it because I'm not a MnK player?
hey is anyone else having trouble installing the season 5 update on steam?
yep the game appears me as 100% updated but the game dont launch or verify the files, i have tried to reinstall drivers,and use dns flush but nothing fix this
you might have some luck clearing your download cache
I'll try it again
i ve tried and nothing probably i´ve to wait
have you tried relaunching steam?
Got to tier 8. I guess that is as good of a stopping point for now
Several times, yes
yeah i restart steam 5 times
And have restarted my PC several times as well
and put the services as high in admin
I can't upload images but
seems like steam is saturated but xd
there we go
try this, and maybe try changing your download location if downloads are unusually slow
it's not low, it's 0
How much of it is downloaded? or is it stuck at zero and not downloading anything
don't forget steam does maintenance on tuesdays
it downloaded to 100%, then it started "installing" and has not gone past 1 percent
I have been doing this for upwards of 4 hours before maintenance
its weird but probably in late hours i can download it
I've also been attempting to clear the download cache this entire time and all it's done is given me the "stopping download for halo infinite" popup and nothing else
True, looks like it was finished around 6pm but https://steamstat.us/ has a large amount of people looking at it so there might be an issue
anybody knows what makes a custom game eligible for XP?
I was able to download the 40GB update
it won't install. my friend said it might be an unpacking error or something
same happened to me. What helped was fully closing steam and restarting it
I have tried this already
You might want to try manually nuking the temp and downloading folders in your steam library (steamapps folder) if all else fails
Close steam first tho
Then try clearing the cache after a restart, something might be extremely unhappy.
Unpacking and patching can be finnicky sometimes
"power weapon kills" is not "highly specific"...using power weapons to get kills should be a focus on every single map, every single game type you play on other than SWAT.
Also, you're telling a 40 year old dad who hasn't played a halo game other than CE PC 20 years ago; who finished this weekly set in 6 games / about 80 minutes that people 'can't get it done' in a week. It's just not true sorry. The challenges are so easy you can sleep through them.
So with the Manger Buff, if you time it right you can make it a great counter to the energy sword
The challenges are actually rather easy now, compared to launch where it was Like get 5 kills on a solstice moon lol.
But I've noticed it's alot of Point accumulation points which for those drop into Husky raid and get the 5k in one round
I think I ran into a bug. On the Mk V[B], When I was trying to equip a couple of new items I earned from the new BP, when I tried to equip them, I keep getting 'Profile Sync Error. An error occured when writing to your Xbox Live profile. Please check you connection'. I tried rebooting my xbox, turning it off completely, and even closed out the app and restarted the game. Did anyone else experience this?
i think you're misreading. I said specific power weapons, so that it demands that power weapon kill has to be with a skewer for instance. But than match after match you don't get a match with a skewer, so you can't get progress for that one. If only the challenges was just to get a kill with any power weapon, that would have been much much better
And your age doesn't say anything about your skill. I have a friend who isn't very skilled for instance. She always has to change the killing spree challenges, because she can't get killing sprees. You do know lower skilled players exist right? You do know that they almost always are matches with and against (much) higher skilled players?
man I have no idea how to do this unfortunately
i'm also apprehensive about poking around in the files and deleting stuff because of an issue i had before
that challenge does not exist anymore.
I literaly have it in between my challenges right now
i can't post screenshots, but this is what it says
CANDY ON A STICK
Kill Enemy Spartans with the Skewer 0/2
great so shoot a warthog with a skewer one time and it's done
I could do that with a DDR pad; also I'm shook bc I haven't had one of those that I saw (I don't even read them they're so easy) in months
no vehicles on arena 😉
You also can't finish them by afking or playing swat 😉 I do not care
Anyone else experiencing issues on the armor customization?
play game, they'll get done unless you play badly on purpose
Way to change the goalposts dude. My point was that it was hyperspecific, wich you just proved.
if you don't get 2 skewer kills in a week, you're not playing right
i never said you can't get it, i said it was just hyperspecific. Again, you are trying to move the goalposts
feel free to open up a ticket I'll give you some of my 180 challenge swaps if that'll make you play the game right
otherwise keep complainin, I still don't think that challenge exists
im good on challenge swaps, i still have 86.
why's the menu capped at 36 fps
When is halo 3 getting updated? Its been a few months now
Is Halo infinites season 5 only 4 weeks?
Why does it say 27 days left on the pass when it just came out?
Because the free tier only goes for 27 more days
What does that even mean? I just bought the premium pass
Then you have it forever
I just meant does season 6 drop in 4 weeks or 3 months?
if you bouth whatever bp its yours forever
My stuff form the store is acting like I didn't buy it..
Operations start in 27 days
no probably its the time to the first operation
the free battle pass expires way earlier then the paid one
The paid one never does
correct 😉
Lmao seems like 343 cant keep things simple I guess. Skill issue on their part. ANyways good to know I dont have to rush this pass if I have 3 months to complete it still
And the free tier only goes another 27 days so why are you being contrarian
Anyone else having issues with the coatings not unlocking? I've hit level 6 and I don't have either pumpkin spice or shadow drift.
i was a bit careless with my framing: the free BP expires way earlier then the season 😉
You have forever to do any pass you buy
Im quite aware. I completed the other 4 lol. Im jsut asking if season 5 is only 4 weeks long or not. You wouldnt have to answer that question if 343 was good at their job lol
They made it very clear in all the materials
Not really
I guess I'm talkin to another person who can't get these challenges done
Nope lol. I get challenges done just fine and usually complete the passes 2 months ahead of time. Im jsut saying 343 is incapable of keeping things simple and clear
stop lying man. I never said that and you know it, since i said the opposite, but only that a specific type was very annoying to do because of it being hyperspecific. So stop lying about others you disagree with. All you do here is just a low personal attack
No point arguing with him, hes a 343 defender
Ok good luck with your nonexistent for 8 months challenges
So don't. Simply accept that you can't read the bp breakdown on waypoint and the argument ends
I read it jsut fine, it never states a season end date. Again, 343 incapable as per usual. I cant imagine shilling as hard as you do
Keep typin. My wife is home i gotta go. Good luck guys stay in school
Just updated the drivers and nothing has changed.
Ok I also turned off 'limit background frame rate ' in the video settings
bro you a real L taker
Don't argue with him I already trolled his brains out
Lol I was literally asking when the season ends
It stated multiple times you have until Nov 17th or something when the new operation starts, or buy it and you have however long you want to complete it
Seems mega unclear still. When does the seasson end?
Has anyone able to join any custom games it keeps crashing and its just a mess
The season itself, who knows. Porbably 3 months like they said seasons would be from now on
Damn so someone earlier couldve jsut said theres no official end date. Doesnt seem so hard lol
But the season is just a big update now, its not tied to the BP so idk why you even care
I got even promted to host soon as I joined a match. Games keep ending and was stuck at a loading screen for almost 4mins.
I was just asking a question lmao
and calling 343 names for no reason because you cant comprehend simple information
What question ya have bud?
Was trying to ask when season 5 itself ends
And the question is a legit one, they did state a date for the free BP, but i don't think they stated one for the season though. It would be around 3 months, but they didn't say a specific date as far as i know. Definitely something they should have done though.
Cant comprehend the lack of answer? Oops my bad lol. Like I said, 343 mega incompetent and couldnt provide that for whatever reason
I dunno really dont think they ever said when, my advice enjoy what we have, you can get xp from custom games, exploit the hell outa that
dangermonkey, incapable as per usual to understand information lmao
L, just take it bro
Does anyone know how to ungroup objects?
Yea it didnt state it in there. So was asking if they stated it literally anywhere, and they didnt
found a combined prefab
Thank you. Previous seasons at least gave me a hint of how I was doing progress wise on the passes because they showed how many days left. Just wanted to have this one done in time too
For me its grab object and updad up to ungroup, I use controller
Okay im confused about the Match XP to progress the battlepass stuff, i was under the impression it was the career XP that was going towards the Battlepass, but its not? its just xp for playing matches like we've always had?
Thanks!
yeah, i feel you. Even with the premium pass it still gives you the days untill the free pass expires, so that is definitely very annoying.
is it the oppisite to regroup it?
down instead of up?
Yeah Id say experiment around with the controls as well, its quite alot to get used to
yes, what is counting towards your career rank is not XP, but score. But i can see the confusion though. I tried to do a custom game to see how much XP you can get per match, but the CGS doesn't seem to work and don't get you into matches and setting up a match myself never said the match was eligible for XP....
nope to regroup dpad up again, you can tell due to it going green
Wait, is grab, select? RB i mean?
yup RB
Nothing seems to happen, still green, pressing select then dpad up
Install corrupted as steam went down and I had to re-install all now 62 gigs.
Western Developers Moment
Hmm, I guess it was just a weird way they phrased it as if it was a new thing, but they're specifically just talking about being able to do what you can already do in regular MM but in custom games
For me it does work, make sure to select it
Do you mean "Limit Inactive Frame Rate?
I even tried selecting the blue(parent one), do you know the keyboard control version?
I'm gone out now. Can't look. Probably that if there's no other option that sounds like that
fair enough, my bad on not understanding what they wrote, I do wish though that the XP gain from matches was a little more dynamic and based on performance and medals rather than a few static variables
No dont use keyboard and mouse
Id say its best to look tutorials on forge in terms of basics its how I got started.
I can't find anything on it, youtube never gives me the right results, can you link me one?
Oh it's in the actions menu
Hate to admit it I cant find results for that either on YT closest thing was a guy doing a build timelapse
no idea how to group stuff though, unless create prefab does it, thanks for the help!
I think if you ask your question there somebody might know
I was hoping I could apply Gladiator's Edge on my SPNKER Rocket Launcher but guess not.
I'm not.
Ok, the game is not giving me the coatings from the Battle Pass either.
I just unlocked the Pumpkin Spice Coating from the battle pass & it's still locked.
Submit a ticket for that
Please refer to the Halo Support site for additional information and/or to submit a ticket concerning any issues you may be experiencing.
so is the bandit evo starts added yet?
Is firefight available in infinite or is that coming later?
i thought it was releasing today but i guess not
Mid-season 5
@short heart I also thought that but just logged on and can’t find it
Ok mid season, I can live with that
You have to wait a little bit
Firefight: King of the Hill will not be available at the launch of Season 5, it will be released later in the season per the release announcement
Although will be back at work by then so can’t grind it now!
Kids and work 😩 amirite? 😂
Thanks!
please someone help I've tried so much but none of this is working
I just want to play halo man

I dont know how match making works but I am UK and I got put into a american server but mint blitz was on my team from AUS.... how
how is that even a match we both on 150 ping
yeah idk what happened lol, this happened to me to and i have search set to local. was running 250ping
I noticed they changed.hed the Sensor Dart equipment UI
It seems.bigger and shows a nice visible bubble of coverage area
Like I am happy I can play a game with mint but we lost that so bad, because we were playing vs onyx NA players
and 150 ping is just not playable, there are the east coast servers I can play on 80 ping and that is perfect why can;t the game give me closer servers? why is it pushing me into 120 west coast and 150 I have no idea where is that
maybe 120 is texas and 150 is west coast I dont know how many servers america got
Play with Mint?
Yes I got put into a game with mint blitz whos AUS and I am UK on a American server,.....
since the update I am not getting many good servers anymore even on USA server I am not getting the closer one I get the furtherst possible
Oh ok, hell the closest iv been was played alongside KevinKools in BTB or Unyshek when he streams and does public games
I think my hidden MMR is kinda high since I get like 30-40 kills in BTB lol
I played against mint once, got a few kills on him, unfortunately couldn't say anything to him tho since there's no All chat :(
late in the night in EU, early in the morning in AUS, while it's peak hours in US.... makes sense to me though. Just to little players in EU and AUS at this time.
Have some armor coatings been made cross core compatible now?
no, only the helmets have been made cross core. Every coating that comes out now is cross core, but old ones will not be
Interesting, because my mate can use any armor coating on any core and I cannot 🤷♂️
WE got rekt he went positive but nothing like his videos, like I did the same damage as him just not as many kills
4 games in a row now I been put in to a game mid way through
seems silly to have made weapon kits for the bulldog 2 seasons in a row as part of the battle pass 🤨
IOMG another game mid way through and half lost game
defs an odd choice, at least there's a sniper and rocket launcher one too tho even if they are in the store
Seems silly we keep getting tricked into buying a battle pass
u only really need to buy it once
Shouldn’t have to buy it at all, should just make a finished game like they used to
f2p moment
I not bought since season 1 lol
How are you "tricked" into buying it?
Ok this is getting stupid 5 games in a row I am being put into a game that is half way through
OMG 6 games in a row
we wouldn't have nearly as much content as we currently do if it was a Paid game
idk about all that
thats more to do with just like how the devs handle the game not the monetization system
Sorry, paid like they used to where they dont add anything
We would have a much higher quality player base and less cheating if it was a paid game too
plenty of paid games come out unfinished as well so f2p isnt hurting that
i havent seen any cheaters personally
f2p has its own heavy downsides, like playing for colours wow thats actually dumb Im sorry
xbox usually has really solid anti cheat
i agree with the sentiment of buying a game and getting everything, but the thing is ur not buying the game, its free
The battle pass system you’re all slave to is an excuse to release CoD and call it halo or battlefield or whatever other game and put in cat ears
ok
so instead u spend like $20 on cosmetics, instead of $90 to unlock everything
Ok i am so done 4 games in a row now I play like only 90s then the game ends this is just stupid
I’d rather pay the $70 we used to and have patches that add customization like we used to
F2P doesnt affect the content of the game
back to quick play this new mode has some wack match making
I did pay the for single player and got a game that never is going to get updated lol
I feel cheated
Correct, they’d rather pump you of all the money we keep getting suckered into paying on here
i also agree that a big part of halo is about the customization, but ive only bought the battle pass once and thats given me quite a lot of good stuff. obviously the coolest stuff is paid for but i can live with that 🤷♂️ i like how my fella looks
Anyone else keep losing connection to the game server? I’m in forge alone and it keeps happening
What happened to war games without cat ears and rainbows 😂
they were already doing pretty cringy stuff in halo 5
They realized military dudes put dumb things on things all the time, lmao
Correct
Like the time a friend of mine showed up to morning standup in tech school in a maid outfit.
You show me a military dude wearing a rainbow and cat ears in a combat zone I’ll pay you right now
Oh can’t post that I might offend some people with the s word oops
Ukrainian Soldier wearing cat ears on his helmet.
Question is does Halo really need stuff like having you pay for armor you wore in other Halo games for free? They made you play for something as basic as armor colours, now so many players look the same. What about paying for campaign now?
I can’t say what I want to about the photo except to say he looks like the type
It wasn't free though, you had to buy the full game then pay for Xbox Live, Infinite is completely free
Halo's lost its military theme a very long time ago, its really not something I take seriously, its fun enjoyable mess its what it is now
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMHv9a_jgtQ
You don't really see actual rainbows in combat for the obvious reasons, but close enough.
A hundred days after the Russia-Ukraine war started, there are hundreds of ordinary citizens who have been fighting that war in Ukraine and among them are the country's unsung LGBTQ soldiers.
#Ukraine #Soldiers #LGBTQ

They did actually make some old ones cross core.
I think the best color would have been keeping the old color style customization while adding the coatings as an added layer, so you get all basic colors for free and customize it how you want and if you want pay for additional coatings or earn some
oh realy? Haven't noticed yet. I hope they eventually make the one i am using (willow tea) also cross core then, since i realy want that one on my other cores.
Infinite is flexing a 10,000 player count currently. Safe to say people don’t like it all that much😂
It barely had one in the first place that wasn't ripped from the non-credible mess that is Aliens.
The comparison I hear a lot is doing it how rocket league does it. So you have patterns and materials that go on top of your colours
So where's my money? I got part of it, and the other's not exactly far fetched considering there's unicorn patches for Ukrainian LGBT units.
When you unlock coating you should of been able to change the colours of the coating, since you cant, so many people look the same in many matches XD
you mean $70+ a recurring monthly fee for online mp
i think it wouldve been wise to have a little bit of customization with cadet colors, AT LEAST primary and secondary options for cadet coatings
Military got soft when who a married became more important than my PT score
@onyx latch we got a live one
People like you dont really want that, nobody thinks the shop is flawed telling from how many buy from it, its perfect
...?
it is what it is 🤷♂️
Wow this channel really got normal levels with season 5 release
Yeah DADT was bogus. At least they're giving reparations to the men and women who got wrecked over it for something that doesn't affect their ability to serve.
ya its almost like halo infinite was dying
^
That said, they absolutely still cared more about PT scores than marriage licenses.
Woah
dad game
No matter how bad a Halo game is as long as it has forge and custom games it will be there for a very long time.
oh ya!!! i said it !
You know what is more important, my vaccine status 😂
Anyone who got kicked over something like that was an idiot.
It's not like you don't get rammed through a few dozen shots before you even know what they're stabbing you with a dozen times. Malaria, anthrax, TB, etc etc.
I’m immune to cancer at this point I swear
actually it is. You could infect others what could put a mission or readiness severely at risk. And even if only you got sick you are a strain on the mission, since you have to be taken care off. So ofcourse the military is trying to prevent preventable diseases within its active members.
Let's keep to Halo chat please
🫡
Dang bro you took that serious
well, you never know these days 😉
Fun police was called
i was already here, stop having fun! 😛 😉
So where is this PVE PVP mode
Not coming until mid-season, it was mentioned in the trailer
Was Ranked Slayer in the game previously? I don't remember it existing
Firefight: King of the Hill will not be available at the launch of Season 5, it will be released later in the season per the release announcement
I mean I think the Shop is flawed but given it's pretty much what we have, could it be improved yes, could we have just had the Original color customization and add the coatings on top of that yes, but what we have is what we have.
But don't take that as me or someone else Liking it and thinking it's perfect
Firefight I understand but wasn't there a mode that has AI dropping in on PVP modes
Played with mint blitz again lol thats twice in 5 games.
You can spawn AI in customs via forge (I’m doing it rn)
There's AI Forge? But other than that there's no specific mode other than Bot Bootcamp which has AI spartans
well that firefight would be perfect for right now so i don't have to play 150 ping games all the time
Ok, Well I payed a bit aill be playing frontier to time might check out custom games but for the most part I think I'ma hop back over to Starfeild and go farm some Serpent worshipping zealots for XP
Gotta buy the PVE DLC battle pass duh 😂
You mean the operations Battlepass, stuff, yea that's only the make sure it doesn't go away after the time period of the event .. but honestly since all you need is XP to unlock the stuff I'll have it all done in one week. I have like 300 XP boost
P sure he was being sarcastic
dear god when are they gonna fix the dying around corners thing

Happened twice now over ~2 hours, never have had the game crash my whole Xbox before I don’t think
Noted ty
Absolutely loving this new season so much great content made by 343! My only gripe so far is the pinpoint needler on Prism, that thing needs to go, there’s absolutely no counter to it
What if we get an AI model/voice of the monitors of the halo installations like tangent and spark?
Played a handful of games this am. The Blamite Mine map is beautiful. I may have died a few time while distracted / looking around. Didn't get a go on the other one.
Tried Ranked - and the Bandit really does change the flavour of the game. I like it. I was fearing the worst as I have to play on relatively high pings - but it felt accurate. Or at least I felt like the shots I missed were my fault and not the server's.
Bought the new Battlepass and the Flood collection. Kudos to 343!
Has anyone heard of a fix / feedback from 343 on MCC failing to create lobbies in matchmaking? Seems to be getting worse and worse
I can submit another ticket on it but it’s been a few months
SOME OF THE COATINGS ARE CROSS CORE??? (From season 1)
which ones?
im on PC gamepass, Update wont even start downloading for me.
I'm terrible with the new ranked gun. I was halfway decent with the battle rifle. I'm playing so bad. Any tips?
i really like the new UI. especially since my spartan is front and center, looks beautiful
Neon one. Got added to all the cores and all the guns. Doubled the number of skins.
I joined my boi KevinKoolx on HALO: Infinite & now the Cross-Core Coatings is working again.
Man, this game is something else.
what does that coating look like?
Chimera looks nice
why does the ravager variant even exist
To prove that god isn't real, for he would not tolerate such an abomination. The only upside is that it can be dropped, and you still have a power weapon.
A monument to the futility of existence
wish direct hits actually did smth
because apparently we needed more weapons with 3 round bursts
what need does this weapon even provide lmao
It's good when you're playing Husky Raid on Diminished or Megapolis though.
You can equip any helmet with any armor core now? That’s sick
Endless opportunities
why did they change ranked starting rifle to dmr?
Gotta say I don’t think the new maps are that good
prism is kinda eh bc the needler is so, so so so strong
Forbidden reminds me of catalyst in a way, it’s very line of sight focused with lots of verticality.
I get it! but good players just play around that sucka and it's just nuts
I’m leaning towards not liking the bandit starts on ranked, or last having the option to have two playlists but maybe that’s cause my wife is not enjoying the bandit>br
...as I get the medal for 5+ with it every game I play on that map
New maps are interesting but they're a little big tbh.
Yeah forbidden is huge
Both of them are solid visually
The style is legit yeah
we'll see how many people learn that the needler is absolute paramount "get it or guard it" level map location and how gameplay on that map evolves but right now it's just bad news for one team a lot of the time
Halo has always been a game of power weapon control so if prism allows that it’s surely a fine map
The needler is a fun thematic weapon to use the issue is it gives it secondary weapon ammo lmao
It has too much ammo and you will likely never run out if you control the spawn, which spawns too infrequently. So yeah it’s a bad set up
Forbidden might be good I just don’t like maps with death pits much, and it’s taking me a while to learn the layout
Prism is also frustrating because its like a grenade bounce lottery lol
But hey gotta have a meme map right
AI against 12 players is more fun than I thought. With bosses
I wonder if custom games will eventually have the option of adding more details to hosted games, such as naming the lobby and having information shown about the users inside, etc.
(Unless it already has)
The price increase to all the bundles in the game is ridiculous
It just goes up and down up and down, this time up.
even custom games firefight is f'ing awesome. cant wait for the official mode
PvP with ai allies is awesome
How long this season will be?
You can practice with the old version in the Academy. Hopefully they put the EVO in there soon.
It's going to be like the Halo 5 pistol. Hitting the 5th shot to the head is the key to winning/turning the battle. And similarly - using your strafe to make sure they miss theirs. It was much harder to dodge the whole BR burst.
My accuracy is good so far. 65% or so. But my shot counting and hitting the perfect is bad. 😦
Enjoying the change so far though.
Guys, what is the meaning of the small white hexagon icons under some shader?
Assuming 3 to 4 months. It's what they pitched for future seasons at the end of Season 3.
Cross core.
But why aren’t they just showing 1 in the shop? They still show the shader for every core so they can slap a “33 items in our bundle” ?
It's probably just a UI hangover. Or maybe they left it so it's easier to try the coating on each core. Making it easier to try before you buy.
Can someone tell me why is the Battle pass only 50 levels?
And what are the “Timed Exclusive” tag means? That it is limited edition and will never be sold again? This tag make it look like agressive marketing and I don’t feel good about it 🤔
Cause it last only 1 month
So can you gain back the credits like before or what changed
I counted and it gives you 1000 credit back
Guys, I saw people turn off team switching, does anyone know how?
of course, lose connection with the server
Anybody plays Infinite on PC?
seems to be crashing the moment I alt tab since the update
Bummer season 5 didn’t fix the consistent crashing…
🤔 I’ve been playing since release, every weeks, and I think the last time I crashed was during season 2
Platform?
Playing from Xbox Series X
I heard someone mention something about alt tab being a known issue. But file a ticket with support to help push it in the list
Makes sense
It’s bad on pc. When me and my friend get on to play we usually have at least one crash each
It’s like playing with a handicap in ranked since you’re gonna lose 2 games in your session
Game crash or connection crash?
Game
That sucks. 20 years ago, I was playing Halo CE on my Windows 98 and it never crashed 🤣 optimization of today’s games suck.
I haven't had any crashed yet, but I've only played a few matches in the new season. Wonder if it's something with your settings
It’s the only game it happens on
Have you tried troubleshooting with support?
Happens to my friend too and we have different builds
It’s the same old suggestions nothing helps
It’s just below being annoying enough to pursue further but if you search the Reddit for crash it’s common
I know a few have it, but I'm curious what the common ground might be. My old rig struggled but I didn't crash much. Just stuttered and lost frames. My new rig has been playing like butter.
I am playing it on the Xbox store version though. From what I hear that's more stable over the steam version
upgraded needler on Prism is ridic
quick ask here can I get 5 people for an achievement.... need some people to hop in a razor back to get "party bus" thanks (on infinite)
Im playing steam rip
Also I take it back prism isn’t the only meme map, breaker is too lmao
That map took like everything good about halo btb map design and said let’s do the opposite
And give montage kids a place to pad their stats
15 sec wait times and I'm still matching people who are dominating the other team. sigh
If it makes you feel any better I waited 5 minutes only to join a game where the last flag got capped
yeah, game lacks SBMM
thing is with the gun changes they would have to reset the sbmm so people can get reset into their correct skill level. doesn't help that I play with people who some times go 2-10-5 cause they handcapped
so it would screw me cuas the w/l if its based of that
it has plenty of skill matching. the way it balances matches though isn't great.
how is forge so far tho
if during peak hours you still get matches with people from bronze to diamond/onyx in very populated playlists? Yeah, that's not SBMM
Because people complained that they were stretching it out with knee pads and shoulder in different levels. And coatings for different cores or weapons etc. So they condensed it.
It's neither here nor there. You still end up with the same amount of stuff. But it's what the masses asked for?
Might be worth trying out the Xbox store version and seeing if it runs any better for you 
I wasn't playing against bronze or onyxes. The game does have sbmm so not sure why you're saying that. That doesn't mean it's super tight in social modes, but my main issue is still with the team balancer.
both are the issue. And i have had multiple matches during peak hours where the skill ranges are from bronze to diamond or sometimes even onyx, so unfortunately that does happen.
Is there a main forge chat channel??? I saw #lfg-forge but I'm not trying to find a group
I've had that happen as well, but not in this instance. What it likes to do for example is put an onyx, diamond and then two golds on both teams which could end up being a balanced game, but it's obviously not fun cause one person ends up having to hard carry and the golds get stomped.
don't believe so
https://discord.com/channels/471722331820130324/1164094631403859979 go upvote and comment for me ❤️
Has the issue with the armory resolved, or is it still busted?
what issue
The V synch issue where armor components fail to equip
Matchmaking is somewhat weird.
I find myself vs console players that have beaten legendary gamemode, while my teammates have minus KDA half the time.
Or the other way around, when I keep spawning with Sniper Weapons (hard to hit S7 in normal fiesta on MnK for me) and get flamed for being awful guy and should just leave.
Does the flood bundle exit the shop in 9 hours
might be fixed, but don't know if your issue is what they were fixing.
It’s been addressed in the announcement earlier, so it might be fixed, or they may deal with it tomorrow
Check my pinned post here and the linked blog post for details on the Battle Pass changes
#halo-discussion message
was the razor backs removed from btb? cause i haven't seen any in about 5 games
why is my fps so lkow in ifninite after s5
Sounds like that's part of the known issue at the moment that's being investigated
#halo-support-news message
Are the battle passes still permanent...? The way it's advertised makes it look like you have to PAY to have it permanently
If you missed the seasons, the only way to get the rewards is to purchase the battle pass. However, when you go through the tiers, you can earn credits and you might have enough to purchase another pass and complete it.
the items you have unlocked are permanently unlocked. What they mean with the BP permanent is that you can always select it to progress further at a later date. The free pass is only available for a certain time, after that you can't progress in it anymore.
But can you still purchase the pass after the season is over?
Yes
Ahhh ok
You can buy Battle Passes and Operation passes at any point
See my pinned comment and the linked blog post for more details
and if you want a tip on how to buy the premium battle pass: microsoft rewards 😉
@coarse dagger you know if they removed the razorback vehicals to other game modes? cause i'm 10 btb's in and no razorbacks so far in normal btb
Please do not tag Admins or Moderators unless immediate action is needed. If you see anything that does not abide by our rules and guidelines, please tag a Moderator to bring it to their attention.
I have no idea, haven't played BTB since last season
ite cause I asked in here before but no response from anyone didn't want to spam anyone too much
and if they removed them then party bus is now non atainable
unless it can be picked up in custom....
oh yeah, that is the only PvP achievement i still don't have, the one for the full razorback 😅
what was wolves at the doors again?
Imagine a warthog with over 6 seats in Halo Infinite.
Like maybe 8 or 10 seats. A warthog limousine.
you mean a razorback? 😜
I said over 6 seats.
there is a seat in the back for a hammer or a flag or...
I'm talking human seats
lol look thats just a pelecan on wheels at that point XD
or just a bus?
anyone seen a razorback in btb sense the update?
don't play BTB anymore, skill gaps are just way to extreme. And on top of that i was tired of having to face full stack teams with high skilled players. It became just unplayable
cause outside of feista i've seen 0
i'm startng to wonder if data miners could tell us if they changed the spawn entities on the btb maps to tell us if they removed them
that or the 343 staff would just tell us -.-
i do agree that the razorback has to stay present, since there is an achievement for it. Otherwise they should revamp the achievement so that a filled warthog (so 3 persons) also counts.
ya so far about 20 btb games no razorbacks
if you want a time check its been about 5 hours of looking in btb
I’ve seen Razorbacks whenever there is an objective game mode such as CTF and Total Control
ya sadly the only ctf I had only had warts and mongooses with a wasp
and the total control had ghosts mongoose and worts didn't see any razors in either game mode the whole game
I don't suppose any of y'all have some experience with Infinite's Forge nodegraph? I'm banging my head against the wall over here trying to do what ostensibly should be a simple task.
Season 5 is pretty nice, I don’t like how the battle pass charges you the same amount of money and there’s only 50 tiers
-this time
It's literally the same but all emblems and shoulders into one tier
That's why is 50 tiers lol
Halo infinite is almost a game
Btb heavies and squad battle is fun aswell.
Cant wait to play Halo 3 playlist aswell.
I hope 343 Will improve vehicle handling and overall health aswell.
It is a full complete game now you mean @olive brook
Are the 2 new maps designed for 4v4? It feels way too big, more for a 6v6
Yes, those are for 4v4
They are a little too big. I mean, they're not gigantic, but they're still a little bigger for 4v4.
I don't mind it for Forbidden, can't say anything about Prism yet since I have yet to play on it
When I play Custom it shows "Match not eligible for XP". Are there any specific settings for which you can gain XP in custom??
Yes, 2 secs
Thanks, I'm just gonna make that a command
Are you guys getting frame issues with this new update?
Thanks a lot
Match XP in Custom games requires at least 2 players, a match lasting 3 minutes or more and a positive personal score at the end of the game. More information is available on the Halo Support Site:
https://support.halowaypoint.com/hc/en-us/articles/19897139664404
Need the new bandit evo in academy lol
Yeah some reason it disabled my Max frames. Had to disable vsync to get more than 40fps
Known issue right now, being looked into
#halo-support-news message
Guys I'm confused, they promised us a firefight menu in halo infinite. And when I went to check-in, I don't see the firefight being added into the game. Was that a lie or they would add this but later on?
Firefight: King of the Hill will not be available at the launch of Season 5, it will be released later in the season per the release announcement
Ah man. So it will be scheduled I guess. Probably because developing it wasn't that simple.
It was never planned for the start of the season
Thought they gonna add everything to it within the game.
You thought wrong
The release trailer for Season 5 clearly showed that Firefight was coming later in the season
"Coming soon to Season 5"
That was a bit ambiguous - at least it was cleaned up in later communications to separate it completely
I thought it was pretty clear from the beginning
Coming Soon = later
I can't think of any other way to read that
The description of the video even says later in Season 5
Kinda like when a movie says, "Coming soon to theatres" and it's like months away.
I guess anyone who was confused is stupid, thats fair
TT the Season 1 HCS coatings aren't unlocked for individual use yet
Thats actually a based stance from 343 I'll accept that
taking 5 Ls in placements feels bad lmao
it's just to make you feel even better when you win. /s
what is the ranked this time?
husky raid is like... when you need a dopamine rush made of dying and killing again and again
it helps me with art because i can play a couple games, then look back and see what i drew wrong
after realising that the current season pass "ends" in 29 days I'm suddenly really concerned about operations
Only the free track ends next month
Huh?
I really hope we can still earn 1 item per challenge completed because I'm getting the impression it'll take up the equivalent of 20 battlepass levels of grind
See my write up here about how the BP and Operations work as of Season 5 ^
I thought that the free track last until season ends
It used to, now it lasts until the first Operation starts
I see
All the free items that were scattered throughout the pass have been moved to the front
So you don't need to grind through the pass to get them all
Can you allow phantoms to respawn in custom games? I’m trying to find the option in forge but only see a spawn timer for the initial spawn
I’m trying to access the store on the Waypoint app and it keeps saying “No flight available”
It also says halo infinite is coming soon
Wasn’t waypoint app shut down?
why does the game take forever to load every time I open it now? I thought it would just be the first time I launched it after the update but its every time now
I thought it was only supposed to compile shaders during the first time opened after an update but it seems like its doing it on every launch now
If it's compiling every time, submit a ticket
Please refer to the Halo Support site for additional information and/or to submit a ticket concerning any issues you may be experiencing.
To be clear, I was miscalculated that part of the announcement.
the point is you can't work on both an event and your battlepass at the same time anymore
prior to this update you could complete an event within a week as long as you did all the event challenges without having to worry about where your XP was going
since each month effectively has it's own 20-tier season pass now, we're pressured to grind each of them to completion within the month before they expire and the next one comes out
Dude Twitter is just full of so many cool combos of armor, I can only imagine how much better it's going to get when other parts become cross core
I wish there was a way to pay a premium to unlock specific armors
Like this was in the shop before and now I can’t get it
I’d pay like 50% more for the piece I need
I mean They do give players the option to purchase said eventually pass to ensure it never goes away.
And as bad as that sounds, it's not that bad of a trade off.
Also I don't think the event BP is going to necessarily be an XP grind. They have to make it balanced in a reasonable way to where you could casually play it and still complete it within the time frame of 4 weeks I think it's 4 weeks for these new Operations... which is a long time to be completing them given that the old events were like a week or two long.
Also prefer this method because you can just naturally play the game as you want without being so hyper focused on completing specific challenges withing a short time frame e
I can’t believe you’d be so stupid /s
I think if you click on the item it pulls up the option to buy it. I bought two bundles yesterday that were not in the shop
You can still get old shop bundles when they're not in the store
like from the customization menu?
Well, it happens, btw the later word does not really tell anything else just later. Which means we have to predict that in which date this firefight is going to come.
Yea
just went 23-9 in my second match this season
i think making my spartan the same color as the map kinda worked
Ngl I’ve always wondered if that helped, I think it’s placebo because of the outline but it might
It could be as simple as you play better if you feel like you look good
hey does anybody know how to fix Halo CE MCC Steam constantly freezing
@gaunt magnet Campaign?
ye
Dont use the anniversary graphics, start it in the old graphics
Then you should be fine - or you can buy more RAM
I was using old
it appaears to only happen while I'm running the cursed halo mod actually
I wish y'all cared about gameplay as much as you cared about dress up
but that doesn't make sense since i have 16gb ram, and a Ryzen 5 5600 CPU (laptop)
implying these are mutually exclusive
I dont think color matters with the outlines
I kept the default red vs blue and yeah on prism the red blends in way more lol
i mean the outlines only show up of you get hit afaik
I... dont think thats right?
The sheilds will flare that color, but you still get a clear this is enemy outline by looking at them
What color did you change to? The maps seem all different
Anyone else perma timing out when trying to join any custom game???
Does anyone else have the Zeta Sky coating?
If so does it say it's cross core but doesn't show up on any other cores?
so what do i have to do to get good teammates for a single game?
be bad
Easy
that's not fun
play in a group
seems like the only way
huh, I got temp ban for accidental betrayal in Grifball where it's a norm to get hit by your ally...
queuing tactical slayer and I always have to carry and lose
i like the new Infinite update, but it's taking an incredible amount of time to load on an NVMe
10 minutes for the initial loading screen with the map video, 100% CPU constantly, disk usage stays at 1.1 MB/s
Compiling shaders bb
Yeah about that. Yesterday I was downloaded it, and it was 22 GB and it took about 20 or 30 minutes to download on the console.
this would only happen once after updating GPU drivers, now it's happening every time i open the game
Unless if the internet speed is quite fast then it might not take so much time.
i've already downloaded the update, got to try the new maps last night
Sound like shader cache is being wiped
That time I was thinking if it's 22GB and takes too long to finish it, it might include everything. That's the part where I was wrong.
I got to play season 5 for 45 minutes last night
I played it all night tbh
I couldn’t play long I had lots of homework
Homework is for losers! (I’m failing every class)
If halo was a class i would be getting A left and right
yea. same here. Every time Istart the game it now takes 2min30s everytime to just get to the main screen. This makes playing halo very tedious since I can't afford to close it.
I have already sent a support ticket with video to show them so hopefully they solve it ASAP.
Where halo 3 chat?
U know what would be even color? If everyone in every school could play Halo. But it's a fact that if it's subject like for informatic then it would be cool.
if the squad battle playlist gives me exile one more time in a row im going to go outside and eat an entire tree. trunk, leaves, roots, the whole thing
I don't think i've ever seen more than 2 accidental betrayls in grifball
So i am a bit surprised ut happened to you
How does one gift coins or the pass
Custom games browser still buggy for anyone? "Waiting to join" and cancels altogether
gift microsoft points gc and they can add it to their ms account
rollback your drivers, the latest ones (545.84 as of writing) seem to be broken, im getting 5fps max in Forza Motorsport
Infinite only took about 45 seconds to load after rolling back
mcc update anytime soon? 🥺
I think I've answered you before, but 343 doesnt seem to make any comments on upcoming development for MCC
Although in one of those spartan chats they did confirm they dont have any plans to sunset MCC 😄
Would love to them add halo 5 to mcc. Would be a great thing or a standalone. Only reason why I say add it to mcc is because it would actually be a complete collection. Just sayin.
they already said it wouldn't be added to MCC
it doesn't make any sense to add another giant game to that already huge game
They can reduce the game size its very possible to do it.
sure it's possible but that's a lot of work and manpower for probably very little returns
that would be a whole undertaking
It's also more than just file size
it's a whole other engine thrown into the mix too
It's resources and the potential removal of Windows 7 support or finding a way to prevent Downloading or installing on Win 7


ofc yea. But the modders can help too and if they hire more hands in on the future. Thats all.
all I'm saying is don't get your hopes up
No one likes the campaign because of the story. Too much happening all at once. Multiplayer was fun.
No i understand that.
You gotta wait for MCC: The Sequel.
One day Halo 5 on PC
halo infinite reached top 10 bestselling games on steam even topping COD RAAAAAAAAAH
show me
You can link to an image hosting site like Imgur, imgbb, etc.
It just won't embed.
It’s listed as 9
Guess it’s been fluctuating
But still top 10 is still pretty dang good and still has a chance to get back up there
How can you check your old career rank?
Your old one?
Before the reset of season 4
For example you could be a gold private, but in your total playtime your a diamond sergeant
Don’t think you can
Man
halo infinite has the best combat of any halo game, just the story holds it behind combat evolved-reach (excluding halo 4)
Is aim assist not a thing anymore on Xbox?
People are already making Firefight modes haha this is awesome
Still a thing, pretty much zero chance of that being removed
I really wish they have the MK7 more tactical looking equipment like form the worst and chest.
Like shotgun bracers, and what not everything they use is way to blocky or oversize. I want sleek but noticable
maybe they'll make the mark vb stuff work on mark 7 at some point
Is there a setting for it
hi there, is halo infinite firefight out?
No
oh
Firefight: King of the Hill is scheduled to come later in Season 5, per the release trailer and announcement
Mid season. But with forge AI we can have a sort of barebones version
oh ok
i wish i had inheritor role because i wanted to show you guys what happened on my first test with AI in forge
and by that i mean two of the AI spawned inside the floor
There is no aim assist strength setting.
You can use an image hosting site like imgur, imgbb and link it here. It won't embed though.
ok it worked the second time
It will embed in #1076327824924872755 :)
I’m using my elite on Xbox and there’s no aim assist
yea but i'm just trying to show the game acting a little weird
Test in a bot match.
where is the "on object interacted" script i can't find it
I think changing my fov fixed my aim
nvm i found it
Question, if we don’t manage to get to Hero rank by the end of season 5, will we still be able to unlock the Mark VI?
Yes
Props to 343 for having an endgame reward.
wait
you cant do challenges in bot bootcamp anymore?
pvp ones
I’ve done some challenges yesterday that didn’t require PVP, but they didn’t count in bot boot camp
Haha prism is such a meme map
Getting the needler feels like getting the tank in btb
what are you referring to
yeah that happened to me too
get 3 melee kills
i done exactly that and i only got 1 out of 3 in the progress bar
The armor for getting Hero
hmm, teammates are calling out in an H2A game and I'm matching 30's and 40's in H3. I guess most of the casuals are in infinite today, lol.
?
If you think it's a bug, submit a support ticket.
Honestly, the sad part about seeing how far Infinite is coming along is seeing nobody I know actually get on to try out the new stuff.
I think Infinite is going to need a proper campaign expansion to release alongside an upcoming season if it actually wants to peak the interest of players that have otherwise moved on.
Halo has always lived or died by the "Came for the campaign, stayed for the multiplayer" mantra. And without new campaign content for players to "Come back" for, the multiplayer will never have a true second chance to get them to stay.
Hero?
in other news why is the aiming in this game so weird
it had an 18k 24h peak on pc which I think is the highest in over a year.
That's a LOT of people
Max rank
Yall think rakshasha should have backpacks?
oh ok
yea
Like the odst ones
Or the radiopacks and backpacks the Army Troopers use in Reach
Did they nerf the sidekick?
why cant i join custom games?
like im spamming join and its just not doing anything
anyone know if I can pull up an old battle replay in halo infinite from around 7 months ago?
specific replay is real special to me
Considering Rakshasa has a belt as a utility, it wouldn't be a far cry to say it could have a backpack as one too.
why wont custom games load
like they just dont load, the loading map is always at 0%

https://youtu.be/_UoOQ7o5Yiw?si=ZFifdxgj1WGUrvGr&t=98
Is anyone else stuck at 30fps with Infinite?
Wait am I crazy
Aren’t we supposed to get a sudden death time extension when you have the enemy flag
I used to get 60 fps at minumum
think it's a bug
Whats the best playlist to get to Hero rank with?
I know kills give 100 and such
But like, which playlist gives you the most points per match time, cause I know big team battle sucks for that
Whichever one is the most fun to play? It's a long journey - you may as well enjoy it.
Cool. Was curious if one playlist was better than others but Team Slayer it is!
I wouldn't be surprised if Firefight ends up being the quickest way to accumulate XP. I think the grinders for 152 in H5 tended to prefer Warzone...
Yea I used warzone leading up to infinite to get 152. I forgot that was coming so thank you for reminding me haha!
Respect.
Just keep in mind how much of a journey it actually is to get Hero.
There's a reason less than 20 people have it so far.
You need to get that Hero armour and whack your Watchdog coating on it!
People already got there!?!?!
And hell yea!!!
Well it has been 4 months*, so not surprising a handful of people have done it
Dang, my game crashed right in the middle of a match
Got to tier 15. So I have the Gungnir base helmet. Just need to get to 19 to get its faceplate
Btb heavies and husky raid are the best for that
I’ll rehash what I said yesterday:
Btb is the most efficient way to farm xp; there’s more enemies to kill and you can use the vehicles to your advantage. Also btb has that bonus xp after every match that gets better the higher your score is. Downsides are that you’re contesting with other players to maintain control over the stronger vehicles and having a team that doesn’t know what planet they’re on.
Husky Raid is the fastest way, queue is quick and games aren’t as long. Easy and recommended to spawn kill enemies with hammer/sword + rockets so you can rack up more xp. Downside is the same strategy being used against you.
With btb you can get a good score (3k - 7k) if you do really well either from just being good or maintaining control over the scorpion/wasp
In husky raid play for kills, not for wins. If a teammate actually starts pulling enemy flags, make sure to assist them; 300 for you making a cap and 100 for an assist if you help them cap. Also to maximise your score (2k - 10k) make sure to spawn kill the enemy team with rockets and hammer (rushdown hammer is the best tool for this) along with thrusters if possible
Unless it gets changed to have a better payout do not use custom games, the xp you get is minuscule and a waste of your time
I would bet that when we get Firefight, that might be a fast way to get XP too
some people abused bot bootcamp for XP before they removed it.
Ah that makes more sense
yea, but there's also legit ones who grinded
Yes, but only because of how easy it was to complete the game against a rather incompetent AI, which made for extremely quick games
true, I guess abused might be too harsh a word.
no
What new tweet?
the intel one?
The abuse was actually from doing the opposite. making games last way longer than they should have to farm XP.
I'm sorry if this has been talked about before here but why is Ranked Slayer not at all what it says it is? You don't spawn with an AR and the motion tracker is not enabled?
Is that what it says in the menu description?
Yes
I was so hyped but it is Bandit Rifle spawns and no motion tracker
It does say Bandit Rifle spawns but it also so MA40 Assault Rifle
What does the Timed Exclusives Bundles mean? Like I can never buy them in the next Season for something?
It's still using the old text description from the last time Ranked Slayer was around, which was as described. Likely an oversight.
They mentioned the changes in the patch notes, though.
is there a way to make ais respawn/keep spawning every now and then?
I’m surprised not as many people are talking about the return to the old shot punch Mangler
Considering the vocal outcry when they nerfed it - you would expect at least some display of rejoicing.
It wasn't blared so maybe a lot of people just missed it.
They tuned the Rocker Hog too
Hey there's only 26 days left for the Season 5 battlepass? Is it time sensitive?
Those were my thoughts too. Though now we still need something to fix the Ravager too. Maybe increase the projectile speed and more damage if it directly impacts the target
That’s for the time for people to capitalize on the free tiers
Sad!
???
Minor splash damage without the charge shot maybe, so you can splash multiple enemies
Motion tracker was always in ranked team slayer. Idk why it’s not in infinite
no i guess
I’d love a feature to opt in to solo queue or at most stacks of 2
Even if it meant higher search times. Btb and Squad are almos unplayable
Hello, quick question:
With Season 5 release, I started playing in ranked again with a friend (last time was in season 1) and I wanted to ask something about the rewards.
Do I have to wait for the end of season to get it or does it work like season 1 where you got the emblems as soon as you hit the rank associated with it? Because I got Platinum V (almost the same rank as what I got in season 1) but I don't seem to have the platinum rank emblems unlocked
Trying out some of the fanmade firefights on infinite's custom games and sheesh, this outskirt's firefight one just seems so badly balanced?
Start and straight away just spawn on my own in a pile of cloaking elites with energy swords and brute chieftains with hammers
It's not like it's just one it's usually about 10-20 of them in a massive pile too
I guess I'll wait until firefight koth comes out...
I think it's meant for multiple people. Get a full lobby together
I was doing it with about 10 people and every time people didn't get far
(Shrug)
yyyyyyyyeah tradition has a way of making people excuse imprecision of vocabulary.
the people who voiced dislike of the decision were generally shouted down by sandbox balance hobnobs
note quite. the 'free track' on the battlepass will last for 26 more days
after 26 days the 'operation' begins which i think has its own free track
i mean, it was made by a fellow player, probably someone who hasn't messed with the ai before. i expect the balance to be out of whack right now since people have to rediscover the principles of firefight
First round of customs on any new mode is always rough
Installed the update on my pc, via the steam app (literally the only thing that horrid abomination is decent at). Firing up the game took slightly longer than usual, as it does after an update. FPS seems fine even after tabbing out and back.
@wide trout do a lot of people just buy garbage tier hardware or something
perf is still decent in the armor hall too
Maybe its the GPU driver issue? Like the NVIDIA driver updates or so?
Just a speculation.
I do use a superior Radeon card 🤷
Not game related, but was the Halo show green lit for a second season?
was greenlit ages ago
Before the first finished
played a round on Forbidden. No perf issues, networking seemed fine, game ran smooth, even tabbed out once or twice just to check
diagnosis: works on my machine (because I don't use bad components)
I'd be surprised if a lot of the complaints about the game are actually a result of people buying substandard parts from second hand retailers.
That, or mishmashing equipment.
wait, I'm confused, my BP xp has an extra 20XP from wherever, no idea where it came from
I crossreferenced my parts selection with like 3 people including someone who does system building professionally before buying anything, as well as reviews both on amazon/nvidia and on other sites, as well as reading up on news about which manufacturer has the highest MTTF on components
but like also i run a fairly 'vanilla' system otherwise. Just windows without any fancy drivers or whatever. I just grab from whoever's the most upstream (i.e. for a Sapphire RX6700XT, I'll get drivers from AMD).
I wonder when they’ll do banished customisation
Anyone from OCE who is ranked plat or higher? Looking for a group who is keen on playing often
On halo infinite
**Okay dumb question how do I change the name of my map from "Void"? **
Find your map in the menu of forge, press view details and scroll down to rename
it was the NVIDIA drivers for me, i started getting major issues in other games as well until i rolled them back
ty
When do you unlock the mark v armor?
you buy it on the 7th of Nov
how much gb is infinite rn?
Couldn't tell ya but the new update was 55gb
Update size depends on platform and when you last updated
Mine on Series X was only 23gb
Download Size by Platform
- Xbox consoles: 25 GB or less
- Microsoft Store app or Xbox app on PC: 24.1 GB or less
- Steam: 20 GB or less
steam says it's 36.74GB
with the 4k textures DLC it's an additional 16.17GB
this is without the campaign, just the multiplayer component
ty 😁
God, now more than ever I want to be able to shuffle what core I wear in a match, i love them all so much now with multicore helmets I wanna wear all of them 😭
37.6GB on Xbox One, 38.5GB on PC (via the MS Store/Xbox app)
was only 20GB for me on Xbox PC App

Is halo infinite in a good state right now?
I'd say so
Yes
Yuh
p. sure it's in most states. It's in wisconsin, and wisconsin makes good cheese, so i'd say so
thinking about giving infinite a chance this weekend if i have time
But wisconsin is a bad state?
im talking about the game's size after the update
oh snap, mb i wasnt reading 🤦
don't sweat it, happens to me to
Why we bringing up Freelancers?
I was just talking about halo infinite
I guess my reference wasn't one you got?
lololololol
okay, so, thinking on something.
If mangler is unnerfed, do you think it'd be okay if it spawned in the shotgun slot?
it can compete with shotguns at the range they can compete at while also taking on opponents at ranges the bulldog and heatwave wont'
Im pretty sure its in the same category of weapon level as the Shotty?
you can pick up both from a regular weapon wall thingo
it's a pistol
rn it spawns on pistol spawns
i think it's balanced if both teams start out with it. see, pit.
any ways to get lots of xp after completing the weekly ultimate?
play lots of matches?
Just… play the game? Eventually activate double xp boost
i was thinking something even faster
I have a question about a battle pass
Ask away
For what, battle pass? Or career?
kinda both
Try husky raid
Idk how it is for BP xp but for career it’s the best
not that good for BP, you only get like 300 xp per match (i mean that aint bad either)
hey i havent played since season 3, whats new besides whats in the season 4 and 5 patch notes? (if anything)
Has anybody else discovered the steps required to open the Easter Egg on Forbidden yet?
They should bring back duel wielding
I'd rather not
they should balance the weapons such that it would not be preferable
It was not balanced
Either that or they bring back the smg
There’s a lot they should focus on before dual wielding is even considered
Yeah
Good morning my friends(are we friends?)
Still wish they can add the vehicle EMP to overcharge shots of the PP.
Maybe just half EMP which the duration of immobilization is lesser than the shock weapons, and those drivers still have the ability to fire their weapon when immobilized.
Only if u want to be
Yay
Can’t play halo infinite on Xbox one s anymore. Everytime I try to edit my armor it crashes, every single time
Make sure to submit a support ticket for any crashes
Please refer to the Halo Support site for additional information and/or to submit a ticket concerning any issues you may be experiencing.
is halo legends is good movie/tv?
It's aight
Gorgeous
It’s pretty good imo. The Duel, The Package, and Prototype are my favs
Best way to grind the BP this season?
To just play the game normally
I did submit a report using halo support

"Oh no i died, i must depart"
The hype is happening: https://twitter.com/AverageJoeWo/status/1714820464768430287
I just played my first 3 games of Halo ever and let me just say...
Halo > COD
1371
who is that
Some average Joe
that tracks
wo
Wo is that?
No idea other than a lot of people seem to follow them, and it's always good to have a positive spotlight on Halo.
So this new season has me wondering where the "I hope we don't get cross core" people are at
did anyone ever say that?
Like a handful of people on a thread or two I made and mostly others were on Twitter.
Said stuff like it's going to let players make dumb looking Spartans and what not.
Basically they were the if I don't like it No one else should be able to use it either types
weird
Yea, it wasn't a huge crowd of them but I always wonder what they are up too these days lol
Omg I just realized you have. A Craigtana PFP
😄
Forge should have Craig stuff in it. Like a Craig DJ booth for firefight modes
What if you could choose a second previously shelved award as a second weekly ultimate award goal after you earn the designated award that week?
You complete 10 weekly challenges, the weekly ultimate challenge, then get the weekly ultimate award.
But then afterwards, it would be nice if you could browse and choose a second previously shelved ultimate award as a second goal for that week.
So after you get the ultimate award of the week, you browse and choose a "legacy" award, and then you are prompted with 10 more challenges, and another weekly ultimate award challenge.
Craig also needs his own emblem at this point maybe a weapon charm
I had brought up these ideas before, the rewards get archived and you can swap them out if let's say you don't like the current weekly but missed out in one you did like
I missed last week's ultimate award because I was on a business trip and the TV didn't let me put HDMI in 😦
That's the first award I never got
I was so close too I literally only had the weekly ultimate challenge left. I left that challenge not completed as something to do on Monday night
Bummer
what is with the amount of quitters in this game, do people not get banned for this
Dang Yea no I have missed out on well every reward since end season 3. Beginning of Season 4. Even right now I'm barely playing but only because I'm also playing Starfeild. Mainly just trying to level up my guy, especially since I found an Xp farm that also drops Luxery textiles
I literally moved hotels to find a place with a useable tv
Well that wasn't the only reason but that was a factor
Also I guess people already made firefight modes in custom games, maybe I'll try them out this weekend.
It would be cool if Unyshek did like a weekend custom games firefight thing. Would make for an amazing community spotlight
There is not currently a sufficient penalty for leavers. Leavers leave games because they do not want to play against players who are better than them. There are lots of bad players because this is a gamepass game.
