According to tracker anyway

I got 37.3% win rate on btb lmaoooo
obsidian wyvern
99% of the suicides is just chasm
fickle drift
I have 75 suicides to 4 betrayals
obsidian wyvern
4 betrayals is impressive
bronze breach
Miss the betrayal voiceover
obsidian wyvern
yea same
fickle drift
If I played ranked more it would probably be like 400 tbh
obsidian wyvern
Tbf some betrayals can be justified
a lot of mine are from when vehicles killed everyone with little impact

checking my DNFs, for around 2100 total games, I've got 112 DNFs, that's not great but not bad

winter flame
okay hear me out, i use to quit games I lost right before the podium so i could matchmake faster
jolly willow
90% of those DNFs where from when we needed 20 challenges to unlock the Ultimate...
I probably haven't quit a game since we ditched the gametype challenges.
obsidian wyvern
i sometimes wonder if quitting before getting to the main screen counts as a quit
winter flame
i never got banned for it so idk
obsidian wyvern
always been paranoid about it so never did
obsidian wyvern
i never got banned for it so idk
people who quit a lot rarely get bans from what i see anyway
bronze breach
When I crash before going back to main screen my challenges counted
jolly willow
Infinite's quit bans are the most lenient of any recent Halo title
bronze breach
So I assume, yes that will count as a quit
winter flame
i only did it after i finished the pass
winter flame
the logic would be the game ended before the podium
bronze breach
Wait, yeah. My bad
winter flame
but idk
bronze breach
Because match is finished after the scoreboard is shown
obsidian wyvern
that makes sense
bronze breach
I need to use the brute chopper more often since I didnt know it can one shot vehicles lol
winter flame
i think it registered as a DNF but you do get the challenges, similar to quitting LSS
bronze breach
I tend to camp at the ghost
winter flame
it didnt one shot vehicles at launch, i think they changed it
buffed the ramming damage
i've never done it i dont think but it looks kinda artificial in the clips i've seen
obsidian wyvern
yeah they buffed it
fickle drift
I hate driving it but it’s good for quick kills.
obsidian wyvern
you only need to ram once for vehicles that arent tanks
winter flame
i wish it didnt sound like a warthog and drive pretty poorly honestly
its kinda annoying that you cant hear the difference easily
bronze breach
you only need to ram once for vehicles that arent tanks
Never tried on a tank but can one shot a wraith
fickle drift
I’m impressed with how well MKB players drive it lol
winter flame
i need to try it mouse and keyboard

RAMMING SPEED 😆
winter flame
that actaully looked quite satisfying, not too different from halo 3
bronze breach
I'll try again when heavies come back or look back in theatre
obsidian wyvern
it was satisfying till i splattered myself
winter flame
worth it tho
obsidian wyvern
had to figure out a way to say that without hitting the filter
winter flame
say what
obsidian wyvern
i splattered myself, replacing splattered with killed
winter flame
ah

i cant wait to see everyone come here and say that

Yeah if its 3 kills swap. I ain't doing it lol. Worse than the back slap one last week

Warzone firefight definitely gives you the most xp from my understanding
The mode that gives you most xp is regular Warzone

Three times in a row I had the flag almost at the end of the base and no one picked it up.

those are intentional design decisions
pre game lobby only exists for veto really, and they decided against veto

Mmmhmm, a veto would be a good way to measure map and mode reception rather than relying on qualitative feedback and possibly quit/afk data.
timid crane
Maaaan I missed out on matching with uny and rob
That sucks me and my buddy where just trying our hardest to match against him
winter flame
The strongest argument I see against veto is that a good veto system would be one that doesn’t control the rotation completely, and thus the delay in starting every match is not worth it
dreamy stirrup

that's.....not exactly true.
winter flame
But rn the situation in MCC is quite painful with the map weighting being based off what maps 343 think people like the most
Like getting dlc maps in reach btb over and over again
2 years ago maybe it was nice to get the maps we didn’t get to play much back in the day, but now not so much
unique pebble
Just feels like 343 takes an attitude of “we know best” while bungee tended to have more player centric
obsidian wyvern
why not generally give each map the same weighting, maps yk which are disliked have a considerably lower chance though

Lol.
obsidian wyvern
mcc had voting?
pulsar cobalt
it did yeah
round laurel
The strongest argument I see against veto is that a good veto system would be on...
I mean, veto could never control the rotation completely as the alternative is random. It's not like multiple choice, which can heavily favour certain combinations. That's why I think veto is fine. If a certain combo is getting veto'd all the time, then it's probably something which requires revision.
I agree that the trade off of an increased waiting time probably isn't worth it though. This is with the assumption that everyone is running the game on a high speed SSD like the Series S/X.
round laurel
that's.....not exactly true.
Sure.
I could've used 'in conjunction' instead of 'rather,' but just offering my layman perspective.
fickle drift
COD had veto for years, I dunno if the last few games have but I didn’t mind it.
winter flame
Someone wasn’t on b.net
Honestly it’s probably best to just ignore the 343 v bungie comments because it’s never going to be a healthy conversation

I kinda quit mcc early on because of the bugs
winter flame
Tbh I would be happy in MCC if they just made the weighting for dev maps like boneyard and spire equal to the dlc maps. I don’t think it needs a veto and it’s not like it’s gonna be supported forever thus any data from a veto isn’t that useful
A veto would be more useful in infinite because they are actively adjusting the weighting, but how much so idk
obsidian wyvern
why not generally give each map the same weighting, maps yk which are disliked have a considerably lower chance though
why can't this be done
pulsar cobalt
its like when you select all the games on MCC its always halo 3 all the time
queen remnant
They should put Chiron in all Halo games
cedar turret
Aside from it being dumb? People like maps for bad reasons. People voted for bloody sword base cause they wanted to camp the lift.
People like maps they think they can exploit.
winter flame
its like when you select all the games on MCC its always halo 3 all the time
That’s not a weighting issue tbf, that’s just because there’s a lot of people with only halo 3 selected. Just deselect Halo 3 and adjust your selections
obsidian wyvern
I mean if you know the general consensus is that it's really bad, I don't see why it can't work
winter flame
I deselect Halo3 after I play a match of it and I get lots of variety
cedar turret
Popularity is not a reason to force people to play the same map over and over again. That's why I hate the pit. Cause I played it way too many times to ever enjoy it again.
obsidian wyvern
343 saw how disliked behemoth and launch site were, they did right by removing it
cedar turret
People don't even like the same maps.
obsidian wyvern
no it was the right move lol
but again, weird that they made the changes then removed it
unique pebble
Meh I guess most ppl just don’t play that much ranked. Bc rank gets super stale when there was 3 maps and they pulled maps out
obsidian wyvern
didn't give us a chance to try it out
pulsar cobalt
launch site skybox needs reworking so vehicles can be used and not get hit by the barrier
cedar turret
And the thing with the internet where you get one kid screaming it's bad then two others see it and scream it without experiencing it themselves. Repeat ad infinitum
obsidian wyvern
so why do maps have different weighting, I assume it's on popularity/if the map is new so you're giving everyone a higher chance to try it out
round laurel
No one talks anymore lol
winter flame
I disagree with removing them. I think they made a miscalculation adding too many CTF maps which then forced them to remove behemoth and launch site because they only work for CTF
pulsar cobalt
But launch site looks like it was meant for a payload mode anyway
obsidian wyvern
No one talks anymore lol

elfin glacier
Chiron TL34 is a far more interesting map
cedar turret
Ideally there would be more map like recharge that aren’t CTF oriented and then ...
That's always going to be the case. When they've spent the time and money to actually make a map, they'll try to get as much use of it as possible. And that's always been the case. Narrows had slayer when it was obviously intended for ctf. The invasion maps were used as btb maps even though they were broken in it (and they threw them into campaign too)
winter flame
The other problem is the lack of assault / one bomb. Launch site is probably ideal for one Bomb.
obsidian wyvern
It's honestly whoever guards first that usually wins.
yep
cedar turret
The one reason people want blood gulch back is rvb
It's really not a great map
I've played enough variants of it over the years I'd be content to never see it again.

they always win the first round, and they'll get to defend 2 out of 3, so they have a higher chance of winning

True but it seems like bazaar CTF has been replaced by CTF on forge maps. It seems odd to me since bazaar would have taken more dev time then a forge map and imo it plays better then most the forge maps
obsidian wyvern
it's a great map for snipers and vehicles and that's about as far as the argument goes
idek how true that is, I actively avoid btb in ce and 2 because of that map
elfin glacier
The fact it's so open makes it awful for on foot gameplay
queen remnant

Part of why i like infinite so much is that the on foot gameplay finally feels as fun as vehicle gameplay to me

Blood glutch is ideal for neutral bomb (bomb spawns in the middle of the map). Personally I prefer Valhalla tho

smoky token
It would be a somewhat easy map to remake, if we just did 1:1
winter flame
Chasm and behemoth pretty much have the exact same problem although idk if they fixed behemoth with the extra cover
smoky token
But accounting for grapple hooks and things would be an entirely new beast
and a potentially very fun one
queen remnant
Yeee
obsidian wyvern
to be sure, boarding action isn't that CE map with like 4 different levels and rockets in the middle on a platform is it
usually used for infection in reach too
elfin glacier
The chasm discourse has made it even clearer that the fanbase is not to be taken seriously.
People wanted a different, interesting map. They get it and they cry about it
Chasm is fun and for an arena map the sightlines are fine
pulsar cobalt
They should give behemoth another chance
obsidian wyvern
chasm is anti fun

winter flame
The chasm discourse has made it even clearer that the fanbase is not to be taken...
I mean people don’t wanna spawn in line of sight of enemy players. It’s a fair criticism of behemoth and it’s a fair criticism of chasm.
Infinite has map variety, it has maps like recharge that people love yet we have not seen more of. I don’t think anyone asked specifically for a map where you spawn in line of sight of enemy players regularly
You might not mind it
But that doesn’t discredit people’s criticism
Especially after behemoth
pulsar cobalt
Problem with behemoth it just needs alot more cover on the map
elfin glacier
Eh i deal with that by moving to cover
winter flame
Right
obsidian wyvern
I just die and respawn with cover ITS FINE
obsidian wyvern

The nerf wasn't needed
winter flame
Bandit vs commando is tough
obsidian wyvern
it's whatever is in my hands first
I think I would pick the bandit more often for closer range combat though
fickle drift
I prefer the commando. I would like the sidekick back in BTB tho.
pulsar cobalt
sidekick is not needed in btb tbh
winter flame
Tbh in btb I would probably keep the bandit and swap my ar for commando cause ar is not that useful in btb
obsidian wyvern
dmr starts is good, but I feel like I can hit people from further away with a sidekick so much more easily
winter flame

Interesting, in that case I really think they need to improve the bandit in some way
winter flame
It won’t get a scope unless the decide they wanna replace the BR in ranked
winter flame
was the dmr 5 shots in previous halos?
I should really know this but I’m not sure
Magnum was 4 shot in reach so I feel like the DMR was 5
Yah cause there was a bug with the magnum in MCC
And they fixed it so the 4 shot worked
obsidian wyvern
just wondering if adding a scope would make it too easy to use
if previous games had it as 5 shots with a scope, it should be fine then
winter flame
It means it’s a different class of weapon and would be interchangeable with BRs
It wouldn’t be OP
But there’s a reason bandit was made starting weapon in btb and the BR wasn’t
pulsar cobalt
I kinda like the bandit without the scope tbh
winter flame
Basically the BR is already a DMR and the bandit isn’t intended to be one
winter flame
did you play the heavies mode
I did and tbh the BR starts worked fine but that’s a mode with completely vehicle dominance

Honestly anything in BTB is better then stating with AR and SK which are both close quarters. I said commando should replace side kick in btb before the bandit was added
obsidian wyvern
I feel like the commando would have been too hard for many people to use
winter flame
Bandit is just ideal because it avoids everyone beaming each other and having no reason to close distance

I know 343 tested it themselves but I don't think we were ever told why they didn't go through with br/commando starts

if on ly the crosshair wasnt so ugly
winter flame
The crosshair makes no sense to me but if you play at 100fov or higher it’s small enough not to be too irritating
And 100fov is a good compromise overall
If you’re at 80 don’t jump straight to 100 but you can try nudging it up
obsidian wyvern
that's what I did
slowly got to 120 and then worked my way back down to around 95
I'll probably start going up again, I can never stick with the same fov
pulsar cobalt
I currently play on 90
obsidian wyvern
s anything less than 90 is too low for me
I like feeling like I'm moving fast lmao
fossil skiff
I played on 93
winter flame
Above 100 starts to cause fish eye distortion so I stick with 100 because it looks right and I can use it in every game pretty much
somber acorn
i like halo :)
fossil skiff
Does MCC let you change FOV? I can’t even remember
winter flame
IIRC pros are around 100-110 and they obviously have very good aim so I wouldn’t go much higher then 100 if your aim isn’t that great. It’s mostly just gonna be harder to aim since it increases how much your reticle moves relative to input
pulsar cobalt

It’s best to find an fov and stick to it across games so you get the muscle memory. Some games use horizontal and some use vertical measurements but you can just convert them online by inputting ur aspect ratio
Changing fov affects your sensitivity

Do you get blacklisted for reporting too many people?
Why do you keep reporting people?
winter flame
the answer to that question is what do you think?
if you report people based on every slight suspicion your reports would become pretty useless
fickle drift
I’m starting to get very annoyed since every game is now just 1v4 with 3 extra bots due to my team quitting
winter flame
its completely pointless reporting people for quitting when they know how much someone quits
fickle drift
Well I’d rather do it and maybe something is done or better yet improve the system where quitting gets you penalised
winter flame
i mean nothing is going to happen to them since they're not going to be harsher on someone for quitting based on a report
fickle drift
That’s true
winter flame
i would just play slayer and not care about the match too much
slayers nice because the outcome of the match is pretty clear
fickle drift
But I hope it doesn’t turn into MCC reporting where you report someone over a year ago and they’re still doing the same thing with zero repercussions
winter flame
if they really wanted to stop people quitting they would make sure challenges are possible to do on every map. They also wouldn't publicly say they adjust weighting based on "data" (players quitting)
fickle drift
They are though
winter flame
basically they've decided lax attitude to quitting is more beneficial then a strict one
fickle drift
Most maps will cover the challenges in one go, if not then run fiesta
winter flame
i mean they arent, there's challenges that are "get kills with X Y Z weapons" of which its possible to get into a game with none of them
the way pads work, they could design challenges to be possible on all maps
the same tier pads are on every map and have the same possible weapons
fickle drift
True
winter flame
if you have quitters in your game and the match is thrown just leave
switch to another playlist so you dont get put back into that match
there is no obligation to remain in a skewed game, idc what anyone says
value your own time
likewise if you get JIP into a match that is lost, just immediately leave
fickle drift

That’s why I can’t do ranked
Queue times are always long and the only matches I get are like EU or NA games where the ping is 250+
winter flame
even if you are happy to play high ping they've designed the matchmaker to not let you play on american servers. im ngl if i was in australia i would just move on to another game
you should get high ping OR long queues, not both
you should not be waiting a long time just to get put on an American server
fickle drift
Unfortunately Australia and gaming do not belong in the same sentence lol
winter flame

winter flame
when i play MCC late I select only East US and select all the games, just deselecting halo 3 to avoid getting it repetitively
you will get the other games

apparently Texas is the best place in terms of getting low pings, seems like most US games are South Central
pulsar cobalt
or he just plays customs when he does vids
winter flame
which is why i always use local matchmaking, South Central is just too far away from the UK
fickle drift
The crazy streaks you see are from the matches he gets like really easy bot players

Halo infinite has been good to me i had a little bit of desync in season 2 and the us servers work for me for some reasons
winter flame
do you mostly get 100-130 or 150?
fickle drift
Season 1 was the best
winter flame
i found i was getting 150 too often
pulsar cobalt
i get 95 constantly on us servers
winter flame
150 is south central
95 is north east
maybe they've retuned it
problem is tho i dont find turning off local speeds up matchmaking much at all
pulsar cobalt
I just have it on expanded
winter flame
tbh they should overlap regions. I feel like 95 is "local" enough
wild sleet
Honestly 140 West US isn’t that bad for me, but there are times where I do have the Rock Eyebrow raise
winter flame
basically anything under 100ms should be included in "local"
and you should be able to queue
wild sleet
When I play Infinite though, solo I get 10ms & sometimes higher which idk why, with others 250ms with Unstable Latency
winter flame
australia is never going to have a huge population but if the game really took off in south america and asia you guys would have a much better time
winter flame
i mean US servers are further away i assume
pulsar cobalt
Nah they wouldn't recon
fickle drift
Have you seen Brazil servers on MCC? 330+
winter flame
lmao nevermind then

Australia is acutally just doomed for online gaming which is sad
winter flame
i assume they would have cables going from South Australia to Chile across the southern Ocean
fickle drift
Australia is acutally just doomed for online gaming which is sad
Why's that? Just because of the population size?
No
Population size and poor internet

You're probably not going to hit a ban unless you do something really bad, or rack up a bunch of warnings in a short space of time. Wouldn't worry about it tbh, just make sure and keep it clean :)
pulsar cobalt
Why's that? Just because of the population size?
they don't have the greatest of internet and there location is weird

Been playing Iron Banner in D2 for about 7-8 hours now I can’t even get the gear I want
vapid siren
nah fr tho the like one time i will ever care about pings is if im in raid in tarkov
to which i'll just swap onto dnd mode and call it a day cause then i wont have the audible ping sounds when im trying to listen for the subtle sound of a rat 100m away trying to snipe my head off for the 10 rubles of loot i have on me
pulsar cobalt
I like tarkov i really do but the thought of losing my stuff hurts
So the code should be in the spartan soap box right ?
vapid siren
its like a fortune cookie but with soap
fickle drift
So the code should be in the spartan soap box right ?
Time to finally have a shower aha
winter flame
speed ran the auto mute, quite impressive time
wild sleet
Buy Soap for a coating, hey atleast I ain’t buying Nail Polish for a coating
pulsar cobalt
Like if i redeem the code i would have to wait until season 4 for it to drop though right?
vapid siren
uh... i guess?
fickle drift
I just buy the codes on eBay
vapid siren
yea
wild sleet
Are they 100% legit getting coatings off eBay?
fickle drift
Buy Soap for a coating, hey atleast I ain’t buying Nail Polish for a coating
I have more use for the polish, vs the soap....
winter flame
the oreos were such a dang pain and now i dont even use that coating
fickle drift
I’ve mostly had good luck with them
fickle drift
Are they 100% legit getting coatings off eBay?
Yeah.
wild sleet
Can I redeem them from Australia
vapid siren
the code should be a waypoint code that's valid universally
remember the oreo one was originally only EU cause that's where the promo was ran
pulsar cobalt
Pretty sure most of the coatings are global just the promo is restricted to some countries
winter flame
u saying i could have made big moonies and ate a ton of oreos
pulsar cobalt
yeah
vapid siren
I got the Oreo coating
yes but buying the oreos that gave the code was only in EU iirc
fickle drift
The oreo was region specific promo, but I have the coating even tho it wasnt in the US.
Ah yeah my bad
winter flame
a guy gave me his nerf AR coating so I have him the Oreo coating in exchange. Pretty good trade for me at least
fickle drift
Are they 100% legit getting coatings off eBay?
Depends what you get and who you get it from
winter flame
i mean he gave me it for free hahaha i just said when the oreo coating dropped i'd get him it
vapid siren
Are they 100% legit getting coatings off eBay?
havent heard of much issue with it ngl
winter flame
i told him he could sell the AR coating but there's no guarantee whoever he sold it to wouldn't just tell PayPal its invalid and get a refund. So he said "aright anyone want it" and i said sure
fickle drift
I’ve gotten stuff like the Zeta Sky and OPI Coatings just fine
vapid siren
like there ofc is always assumed risk, but there's buyer protection for stuff and also just havent heard of many scams on em
pulsar cobalt
I wish i got wall breacher
pulsar cobalt
you got any spare codes laying around haha
fickle drift
You could just buy them
fickle drift
You could just buy them
Yeah, for the cost of a console...
wild sleet
Might have to try my luck with the Target Coating or the Oreo
fickle drift
Yeah, for the cost of a console...
Wall breacher is like $60 here on eBay
pulsar cobalt
You could just buy them
for £250
bronze breach
Plus tax
fickle drift
It is $259.99 here
wild sleet
Yeah some coatings are like $300AU
fickle drift
Last time I checked was about a year
pulsar cobalt

fickle drift
Yeah some coatings are like $300AU
Action Block is $700
wild sleet
💀
fickle drift
I’m tempted to buy it
bronze breach
Do it! Then have regrets later
wild sleet
I ain’t paying $700 for colours I’m good lmao 🤣
fickle drift
But I also don’t want what happened when I bought the razer coating to repeat itself lol
pulsar cobalt
i mean if your rich and got the money why not
fickle drift
I bought it from one seller and didn’t hear back from them so later on I bought and got one from another
A week later I got the other person’s code lmao
fossil skiff
fickle drift
That cost me like $300 overall
fickle drift
Ok
pulsar cobalt
Well i redeemed the code now i just wait for season 4 haha
fickle drift
drum roll 🥁
wild sleet
I might have to get the Oreo coating
ancient parrot

Never knew there was a Oreo coating
