[obsidian wyvern]

I thought the bandit had no bloom

[fickle drift]

It does

[bronze breach]

Never trust rev in a hog while you have a flag.

[forest lagoon]

If your teammate looks like they are capable and smart then do it. If not then hog that beauty

[fickle drift]

It’s such an unreliable weapon

[obsidian wyvern]

but I also play at around 110 fov so I don't really notice bloom

[bronze breach]

You'll end up down the cliff!!

[lavish matrix]

Never trust rev
fix'd

[bronze breach]

👍

[fickle drift]

Dunno why it’s a btb start or why the comp people want it as a starting weapon

[obsidian wyvern]

aight dark, I was actually competent in a warthog yesterday

[bronze breach]

[wild sleet]

I always swap out the Bandit for a Commando in BTB unless there’s a BR in my viewpoint

Bandit is more pin point but the Commando feels stronger against it

[obsidian wyvern]

almost

[wild sleet]

Man I love Police Pursuit

[obsidian wyvern]

it's a great mode

[fickle drift]

Melee lunge could use a buff

[wild sleet]

It’s a fun mode, my mates & I used to play it a lot in Halo 5

[molten pelican]

ah the best gamemode

[obsidian wyvern]

I tried out sumo bowl yesterday and that was a lot of fun too

[fickle drift]

Or you know actually do damage to clambering enemies

[molten pelican]

yeah when you can actually find a game its super fun

[obsidian wyvern]

the IKEA map was disappointing, I'm gonna have to make my own version

[molten pelican]

walmart tho

[obsidian wyvern]

nah Walmart is too big

for a Walmart

[molten pelican]

its a good walmart

i would shop there

[obsidian wyvern]

I wonder if I could legitimately build most of an IKEA with the budget in infinite

[wild sleet]

I’m waiting for someone to recreate Butcher from Halo 5, it was a pretty chilling mode but it was actually fun

[fiery rapids]

What do you guys think about infinites infection?

[fickle drift]

No players for it

[wild sleet]

I think it’s fun, one majorchange they really should make is Last Man with Active Camo. Your marker doesn’t pop up when you’re in Active Camo which kind off a bit too strong

[fiery rapids]

I think its kinda a genius idea that the Infected are Spartans infectréd with iratus

[wild sleet]

I think it’s a cool take for the Infection, even the Sword looks freaking awesome

[dusk saffron]

💀Ur name

[fiery rapids]

😄

[carmine fractal]

i kinda like the H2A infection models more and the sword colours.

but yes the ai on the spartan is an interesting approach.

[fiery rapids]

💀 Ur profile pic

[wild sleet]

Yeah the H2A infected Spartans were definitely top tier to look at, the gruesome approach was pretty terrifying

[fiery rapids]

yep.

[fiery rapids]

I agree

[wild sleet]

It’s a shame they never bothered to do anything with the Elite models for H2A

[fiery rapids]

öäe-roa

[tired wraith]

How long do I gotta wait till I can post vids here?

[smoky token]

a while

only inheritors and mods get that ability

you can use external sites like imgur or even discord CDN links here though

they just won’t embed

[tired wraith]

Dang alr

[normal owl]

Well that was the craziest weekend of news I've followed in a while.

[bronze breach]

If I have so far not get inheritor, it be longer for you spade. 👍

[bronze breach]

Of?

[obsidian wyvern]

wanted to learn forge and now it looks like it's too much for me to be bothered lol

[bronze breach]

👍

Attempting phone call again. 27 mins in!

[hearty flame]

I think it is a point in 343's run where making the game more youth-friendly worked insanely well

[dense star]

I'm just stuck in the old days and liked it just being Spartans with black armour and maybe using FX to make it seek more atmospheric 😆

[bronze breach]

[sage palm]

It's worth nothing that Halo has always been rated for mature audiences by all ratings boards other than the ESRB

if anything it's the ESRB that's progressively gotten less strict when it comes to blood and violence

[obsidian wyvern]

the humour in the game seems to be more kid-oriented as well unfortunately

[sage palm]

first time I've heard someone actually hate on Staten's grunt lines honestly

[obsidian wyvern]

is that at me

[amber mirage]

I haven't noticed any change in the type of jokes they have. Seems about the same as it always was.

[obsidian wyvern]

talking about some of agrynas and the pilots lines/actions

the grunts are the same as always

[calm lark]

what would you do with 25 bucks

[hasty zinc]

[hasty zinc]

You could also get the sequel, The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars but IMO it's not as good as the original

[versed dirge]

25 can get you to the movies

[bronze breach]

Use £25 to buy shares in 343!

[versed dirge]

Toaster is a dub

[obsidian wyvern]

od go rewatch across the spiderverse, was such a good film

[bronze breach]

Phone call update: after waiting 45 mins again on hold, only for the customer service team to say,

we cant locate the matter

Not by postcode, surname or reference. RIP

[timid crane]

Why da phone call?

[bronze breach]

Need to sort out a mess lol

[obsidian wyvern]

clans have started to get proper trailers oh no

[bronze breach]

I will unleash hell on sweaty clan players in btb

Ruin their montage

[hard mist]

was gonna ask if halo's gonna get in on the barbie promotional campaign xbox is running but i'm not sure what halo could actually offer in-game (forza horizon 5 is giving out two cars in-game)

[bronze breach]

Pink coatings

[obsidian wyvern]

imagine the outrage lol

[bronze breach]

We have 1 pink coating already on spi

[vapid siren]

didnt we also just get cadet pink?

[obsidian wyvern]

yea

cadet pink looks nice tbh

[vapid siren]

its a bit dirty and muted but eh its in line with the other cadets

[obsidian wyvern]

there was the electric bubblegum from the first cyber showdown event too + the cat ears coating

[tired bolt]

Gd

[wild sleet]

If Infection allowed 6 people you could totally have 6 players running Among Us themed Hazmat Spartans in infection

[violet widget]

is 29 kills and 3 deaths on slayer any good?

[winter flame]

nah do better

30 is the threshold for good

[obsidian wyvern]

only 30?

[bronze breach]

Going 25-24 is very good

[wild sleet]

Nah gotta at least drop 40 kills

[winter flame]

when do you reach god tier

49?

getting 50 kills is impossible due to the reality that if your entire team is throwing, the other team will always reach 50 first

[bronze breach]

Get 0-30 deaths in slayer pls. Best teammate ever

[wild sleet]

😬

[winter flame]

real talk k/d is nothing its all about medals. getting an over in ranked is it

[bronze breach]

Not a killionaire tho

[winter flame]

also look at those steals, im the real objective mvp

[winter flame]

not even close 😔

i need to play infection 😄

[bronze breach]

I got killionare on btb

By camping!

[winter flame]

what was the strategy? asking for a friend

[bronze breach]

Camping at wasp

Ez kills

[winter flame]

ngl if you can kill 10 out of the 12 players on the other team by camping wasp it's hardly a cheap strat

[bronze breach]

It was on oasis too so ceiling was low

Could have gotten skewered or shocked

[winter flame]

im so mad i havent got a Flag Joust, im pretty sure i got one in the flights as well

[bronze breach]

That a medal?

[winter flame]

so much goofy stuff happened in the flights

yah you kill the other flag carrier with the flag

i havent even got Lawnmower yet

choppers are too rare

[timid crane]

I’ve gotten 1 killionaire and 2 demons

😂 and I’m still bad compared to you my boy

[winter flame]

bruuh

i got a grim reaper in the wasp but thats it

[bronze breach]

I dont have that lol

[winter flame]

i think my longest streak is in Halo 2A outside of infection

[bronze breach]

At best, rampage

[rigid egret]

I got a Killionaire on btb with shock rifle the other day. Bout to post it here

[torn carbon]

100% agree

[winter flame]

some people are just nasty with the shock rifle its unreal

half the time i pickup sniper or shock in ranked its just to deny it from the enemy

too many good shots at diamond level

[obsidian wyvern]

kuhlect with a shock damn

[ancient girder]

anyone know if dxp tokens count towards career progression?

[obsidian wyvern]

I've yet to play the new btb map

[ancient girder]

or are they only relevant for battlepass?

[bronze breach]

It's too compact imo

[obsidian wyvern]

only the battlepass

[ancient girder]

that's so beat

classic 343

ty @obsidian wyvern appreciate it

[winter flame]

oh actually i think grim reaper is my highest spree outside infection. only hit 25 in 2A and 30 in Reach

praise the wasp

[obsidian wyvern]

what's the highest

[winter flame]

35 is grim reaper and i never got demon

[obsidian wyvern]

30 kills?

[winter flame]

demon is 40

[obsidian wyvern]

oh 40? ok

I think I got demon in halo 5

[winter flame]

35 was highest in prior games

[obsidian wyvern]

nvm I got 35 then lol

[winter flame]

unless 5 has demon

in which case 35 was highest in games before 5

[winter flame]

nevermind i forgot unfriggenbelievable

i think 25 was my highest prior to infinite and my invincible is from 100 FF kills

oh nope its actually from MP

i honestly dont remember getting 30 killing spree in reach lol

[brisk flicker]

So i loose since our team just stand 5 miles away from the hill and do nothing

Yet some 343 cm's say the playerbase is good

[bronze breach]

I do that too!

[winter flame]

honestly cant blame 343 when they make a ranked slayer mode with social settings and proper SBMM and no one plays it

[brisk flicker]

Nad tactic

[bronze breach]

[winter flame]

they could have done better with the naming of playlists though

[brisk flicker]

Mybe punish bad players

[winter flame]

nah

let bad players play with bad players

let good players play with good players in ranked

[bronze breach]

No. Punish the skilled, reward the bad!

[brisk flicker]

Your not funny

[bronze breach]

I'm serious...

[winter flame]

you wanna steamroll bad players while you also dont want bad players on your team

it frustrates me the lack of SBMM in social but it also frustrates me 343 make a playlist with social settings and SBMM and nobody plays it cause they just wanna steamroll lower skill players

[bronze breach]

That's why sweaty players play btb.they know there is no sbmm and bad players play it

So they push in packs and slaughter bad players

[wild sleet]

Hear me out, Gears of War Fracture event

[bronze breach]

I'm up for it

[wild sleet]

Boomshot for a Hydra Weapon kit

[bronze breach]

I'm a Gears fan first.

[round laurel]

How would you punish bad players?

[wild sleet]

Yeah let’s not punish bad players, I get they can be annoying but they have all the right to play this game like us

[round laurel]

https://i.redd.it/o34jzf0d3n1b1.jpg

Someone already designed a new model for the fracture event.

[rugged fox]

im getting alot of input delay

[wild sleet]

That looks sick ngl

[rugged fox]

after booting the game for the first time

is there some way to fix it

[round laurel]

You can make a post in #1075989764026675210 after reading Sam's pinned post in that section.

[rugged fox]

[wild sleet]

The more I get Deadlock the more I want Oasis

[hasty zinc]

The more I get Oasis the more I want Exile

Even though I love Oasis

[bronze breach]

The more I get exile, the more I want highpower

[wild sleet]

Me with Exile is the Caveman SpongeBob meme

[bronze breach]

So iv can camp for the wasp

[winter flame]

of course you do you wasp camper 😛

[bronze breach]

[winter flame]

petition to replace all wasps with banshees 😄

[bronze breach]

Or give wasp banshee health and lower highpower ceiling like oasis!

[wild sleet]

Please!!!

[pulsar cobalt]

Good banshee player can be way more annoying then a wasp player tbh

[wild sleet]

I just want more maps with Banshees

[winter flame]

i beat a wasp in a dogfight with banshee, the manoeuvrability is hard to combat if you arent a wise wasp player

[bronze breach]

You know what banshee players do? They ram into the wasp, causing alot of dsmage

[pulsar cobalt]

Also when are gonna get vehicle modles so i can have the classic halo CE banshee look and sounds 😂

[winter flame]

i would keep the wasp in the middle of oasis but give each base a banshee

for high power i would make them banshees and then have wasps drop in the middle

[distant jay]

Can someone tell me how to make spawns for ffa

Because I put spawns in and people don’t spawn

[wild sleet]

My Banshee was doing the doom state, didn’t know what to do so I just Nosedived into a guy 🤣

[distant jay]

I changed some settings and it still doesn’t work

[pulsar cobalt]

I wonder what bundles are gonna come tomorrow

[winter flame]

i think if you're clever enough you can just fly the wasp up to the ceiling and kill a banshee with just the turret before it can do too much damage to you, but banshee gets above you and ur kinda doomed

[bronze breach]

Phone call attempt 3 - 55 mins and counting!

[wild sleet]

White hopefully

[winter flame]

try #1039633978841374720 and click the forge filter

[distant jay]

I did

[distant jay]

Idk why people don’t spawn

[manic sky]

Hello everybody

Why is my name like this

[bronze breach]

Got disconnected again

[manic sky]

Can I join anyone, I’m lonely lol

[winter flame]

try https://www.reddit.com/r/forge maybe. i dont know if there's a forge focused discord perhaps

[round laurel]

Forgehub (Discord server) is full of helpful folk.

[obsidian wyvern]

not athlon lol

[pulsar cobalt]

No

[indigo trench]

who knows how to carry on halo 2 legendary?

[pulsar cobalt]

Something tells me its a HCS twitch drop or its gonna be a exclusive item on a hcs bundle

[winter flame]

that's the best part, you cant 😄

Iron skull is always on

[indigo trench]

wym

you can turn it off

[winter flame]

one person dying puts you both back to the last checkpoint

[indigo trench]

i just need help with regret until the end

[winter flame]

no respawns on legendary

[indigo trench]

oh yeah i know

that’s why i’d stay back and let the better person play

[pulsar cobalt]

if your doing it solo until now and wanting a friend you have to redo it from the first mission lol

[indigo trench]

you can combine the solo and coop

[winter flame]

use speedrunning techniques pretty much, you can't carry very easily on that level https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWLWlGJcKBY

thats the one i used

[indigo trench]

i completed halo 4 and 3 with solo and coop and it counted

[winter flame]

you need to have done the whole campaign on co-op on some difficulty

for your co-op progress to count towards the legendary achievement

[timid crane]

I know for a fact because I’m doing a mcc halo legendary run for all halos and all I have left is halo 2 and I can confirm it works if you play solo and coop

It doesn’t count the continuous run from mission 1 to final it just reads if the legendary precaution was achieved on every mission regardless of solo or coop

[pulsar cobalt]

but solo and coop are different things what never use to work like that haha

[winter flame]

i've always heard that you have to have completed a campaign fully on both solo and co-op to then mix and match for legendary

[astral geyser]

How do I share a image

[timid crane]

Nope at least for me it’s worked by mixing and matching

[pulsar cobalt]

Finally got to the silver rank

now cadet again but silver haha

[timid crane]

I’ve done most missions in halo ce with a friend but some solo and halo 4 complete solo and reach/odst solo, but halo 3 and halo 2 I’ve mixed and matched with multiple coop partners

[dreamy stirrup]

you can upload to an image hosting site and post the link

if it's to show off something cool, go post it in #1076327824924872755 and it should embed 🙂

[astral geyser]

Can you simplify that a bit

[dreamy stirrup]

upload image to imgur

If you want to share images or videos in general chat you have to have a link, but if it’s something to show off to show and tell and do a link and it will do an embed so people don’t have to click exactly on the link to view it

[atomic pike]

It was REAL bad in S3. I don't think I'll be motivated to ever finish S3, the final rewards are lame anyway

Here is the story

[winter flame]

this better be good

[pulsar cobalt]

But i think they are gonna fix this in season 5

well for the season 5 pass anyways

[floral pollen]

This is gonna be a looong story

[bronze breach]

So I got my wasp from team base, I then go down the cliff to the enemy wasp spawn. I destroy it. Then I see a dude coming. I hide under the wasp spawn pad, then the dude purposely falls off the cliff but then somehow manages to hijack my wasp!!

Without use of grapple.

He took my wasp, and I fell to my Doom -_-

All I have to say to that is:

Hello, is there anyone who knows why I am suspended in halo infinite? and for how long? According to what he says, he was suspended on 06/26/2023 until 10:27 a.m. and it's already 12:19 p.m. and I'm still suspended

[pulsar cobalt]

shouldn't be quitting games

that would be a huge you problem

[winter flame]

simply outplayed

good story though

[bronze breach]

It's only 9.27 in Redmond.

I believe suspension times goes by redmond time

[floral crest]

I'm in the US, it's 12:22 pm here

[bronze breach]

What's your region?

[floral pollen]

EST I'd guess, its the same time for me

[bronze breach]

I'm sure US has multiple time zones lol

Have to wait another 1 hr

Suspension will be likely be lifted when its 10.27 in Redmond time, not in ET

So 13.27 for you

[haughty slate]

Is halo down rn

[dreamy stirrup]

which halo?

[haughty slate]

Cant play anything even training mode

[dreamy stirrup]

i will boot up and see but in the meantime, have you tried restarting your game/console? 🙂

[haughty slate]

I'm using pc and yes I did

[dreamy stirrup]

you try bouncing your network too?

[south sundial]

I'm doing good

[hollow hamlet]

Infinite has been working fine for me all morning.

[hollow hamlet]

Have you made sure your game is updated? Aside from restarting everything like you've already done, that would be my guess.

[astral geyser]

@quiet sluice @south sundial there are two of them now

Man when you have High Ping in BTB you literally can’t Splatter anyone

[astral geyser]

In BTB I prefer sniper loadouts

Halo five sucks

[wild sleet]

Not a fan of H5 but the Sandbox & Forge was probably the best we’ve gotten since Reach

[astral geyser]

Yeah, I have to agree with that

Because it's true

[dreamy stirrup]

i was on board until i realized this was salmon 😦

[stray magnet]

I only ever played H5 for it’s infection. It was all I had and it was amazing!

[hasty zinc]

Is good

[dreamy stirrup]

i don't like salmon

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wild sleet]

I think Halo 5 was fun, while it has some cons Warzone, Forge, Customs & the Sandbox are it’s biggest redeeming qualities, even the Assassinations are cool (even though I turned them off)

[hasty zinc]

Supernova best assassination

[forest lagoon]

Could always do a tuna steak instead maybe

[wild sleet]

Back Breaker was my favourite because made me feel like Bane

[astral geyser]

Misder beest

[jade gust]

I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss Warzone from Halo 5. There's only a few things I'd change about how that model worked and even with my admittedly small issues with the mode, I genuinely spent allot of time playing it

[novel tangle]

i would still play 5 if i could match easily, but it feels like since im high level i cant find matches as well

[wild sleet]

I think I put like 40days in Warzone while Arena it was 15-20days I’ll have to try & check

Customs I 100% put more in

[novel tangle]

is 5 even playable anymore

[hasty zinc]

Yes

[novel tangle]

which playlist

[hasty zinc]

Not sure

[obsidian wyvern]

hope this helps 👍

[short field]

You’ve also seen it sir

[bronze breach]

Hi

Halo waypoint app now stopped working - stats and store

News page still loads, probably being fetched as an rss feed

[elfin glacier]

😭

@hasty zinc i got the funny soap
couldn't get the spartan deoderant so i got the pine one and it smells so good

and it smells. Like, it's a pretty strong fragrance

i could smell it through the box

[tight remnant]

the spikes grenades are so bad they can't kill someone in a vent 😦

[elfin glacier]

oof

[tight remnant]

who had no shields

[bronze breach]

Throw shock

[obsidian wyvern]

he has said the opposite

[tight remnant]

They changed what they said?

[round laurel]

What?

[obsidian wyvern]

^

[round laurel]

Thanks Rev.

@idle lava, see above.

[hasty zinc]

Very nice, make sure to redeem your code

[elfin glacier]

i'm going to save the funny halo soap for worlds 2k23

[hasty zinc]

Noice

[tight remnant]

Like a strong fragrence?

I wonder what it smells like but I feel like that smell may not be the one that suits me

[elfin glacier]

yeah. Not overwhelmingly so (for me) but it's very much noticable. To be fair, if I'm paying that much of a premium for the fanciest soap, I better be able to smell it

The smell of the pine tar stuff is well... piney/woody

[bronze breach]

Rank recovery is against xbox TOS isnt it?

[round laurel]

Rank recovery?

[bronze breach]

I assume helping someone else to reach a particular rank on their gamertag

[round laurel]

Um.

[bronze breach]

Found a tweet of someone offering rank recovery for up to $75.

Which I'm thinking is definitely a big no no

[round laurel]

Good luck proving it.

[bronze breach]

Yeah that's a hard one lol. Maybe detect region change?

On an account.

[obsidian wyvern]

so it's just smurfing?

[bronze breach]

I dont know tbh. I want to report but no real substance of it to do.

[round laurel]

I wouldn't bother.

[bronze breach]

Interesting, Microsoft created a new division within The Coalition Studio called Xbox Games Technology Group.

"At The Coalition Studio, through our work on the acclaimed Gears of War franchise, we are tackling these problems head-on by leading engine innovation, developing technical showcase technologies, and delivering world class workflows, tools and features that are adopted across the wider Xbox Game Studios organization. Xbox Games Technology Group – The Coalition"

[vagrant sable]

Im hoping Gears 6 is good

[steady jolt]

https://youtu.be/_7dgdhM7Eqk

[obsidian wyvern]

id have preferred the original aesthetic but this still bangs

[bronze breach]

So basically The Coalition will make tools and stuff for use for its first party studios like 343

[obsidian wyvern]

it kind of reminds me of that really cool only white map

[winter flame]

seems like its much more of a showcase of Forge's capabilities

then Argyle or Pit

[frank kelp]

aaaaaahhhhhh lohbaba

[frail walrus]

Nice! Super excited for this

[frank kelp]

wort wort wort

[amber mirage]

I'm gonna miss the green

[idle lava]

So it is attainable?

[jagged cedar]

yes it multiple people have obtained it this year

[winter flame]

might be worth asking in #1083073036082749531 if anyone's got it recently

[idle lava]

W rizz

[idle lava]

Thanks man

[bronze breach]

ok so reading the job description in full: "Games continue to evolve and push the boundaries of entertainment as we know it. The bar to deliver world-class games continues to rise, driven by advantages in better hardware and software capabilities. Along with optimizing game development engines, developing infrastructure and workflows for efficient remote and hybrid development, brings new opportunities and engineering challenges that all studios are facing today. Solving these challenges is critical to enabling efficient hybrid teams, as well as external globally distributed development partners who help scale during peak phases of development. At The Coalition Studio, through our work on the acclaimed Gears of War franchise, we are tackling these problems head-on by leading engine innovation, developing technical showcase technologies, and delivering world class workflows, tools and features that are adopted across the wider Xbox Game Studios organization."

it looks like The Coalition may help with Infinite development in the future even though it doesnt use Unreal Engine

[candid epoch]

bro I got spawned in as a commando ☠️

couldn't move but everything else was fine and all I could see was the weapon rack lol 🤣

[amber mirage]

I want to spawn in as a plasma pistol

[bronze breach]

I want to spawn in as a tank

[hasty zinc]

I want the plasma pistol to be a pallbearer at my funeral. So it can let me down one last time

[hearty flame]

Remember when the Plasma Pistol did something other than make you a free kill?

[jaunty yoke]

Is it out already?

[jaunty yoke]

So like, the CE plasma pistol?

[round laurel]

It was good in Infinite before they nerfed it.

Now I avoid it.

[hasty zinc]

Tomorrow

[jaunty yoke]

Yep, no reason to use it anymore, it's not as easy to noob combo anymore, and it doesn't stun vehicles

[jaunty yoke]

If I worked for them I would have mentioned that in the description of the video

Wait, I just noticed the extra loading screen when swapping between the campaign and multiplayer menus... why is that a thing?

[steady jolt]

As on Season 4, campaign and multiplayer have been decoupled

Halo Support (@HaloSupport)

As mentioned in this @Halo stream, the Season 4 update changes how #HaloInfinite's Campaign is installed. If you have Campaign installed, the estimated download size will be larger than previous multiplayer season updates. Future updates will be in line with previous seasons.

John Halo used to be an icon in gaming, it feels like his time has come to an end 😦

[sour steppe]

hello eating pizza

[hearty flame]

Next Zelda will go and we'll lose another male icon in gaming 😢

[empty inlet]

Has ANYONE read the halo books??? I wanna get into them but idk if I should read them in release order or chronological order?????

[dry arch]

I have never played a game where the campaign and multiplayer had to be decoupled and require reloading the entire game for each individual mode.

[sour steppe]

i need to buy the halo master chief collection, miss me some halo 3 action

[tall tartan]

did cod not do that tho

[round laurel]

I'm pretty sure the new CoD games do this.

I wouldn't know... I just play Warzone lol.

[steady jolt]

Our goal is to improve the development of future Multiplayer updates by minimizing the potential for unexpected issues or instability in Campaign.

For info

[fickle drift]

i did not expect to meet morbius in a match

[bronze breach]

same, another discord user spotted in btb!

[fickle drift]

you played good btw, hope it was fun

[bronze breach]

so far, I came across rev, auriga and you lol

i was trying to stay positive lol

hate going negative xD

[fickle drift]

same here, but if i meet anyone else that i know here i probably wouldnt recognize them if they had another username

i only knew it was you due to ur bio

[raw raptor]

the amount of 9 yr olds in my slayer game was unimaginable

[round laurel]

I dislike being teamed up with people in here in case I go full potato and they're disappointed. 😞

[raw raptor]

they had mics and they said this... "Bro the old Halo games sucked they had terrible graphics."

i didnt respond well

[fickle drift]

do they not realize that those were peak graphics during that time?

[raw raptor]

probably not

[round laurel]

Your first mistake is debating children online.

[raw raptor]

and the old bungee games were amazingt

[pliant hatch]

I haven't played with squeakers in a while

[dry arch]

Or just that those games launched before they were born.

[pliant hatch]

on my team

[raw raptor]

there were alot of sqeakers

[sour steppe]

I normally have voice chat off cause that distracts me a lot during matches, I’m bad like a turd on a wheel but if I had vc on I’d be even worse lmao

[round laurel]

The last time I heard a squeaker was Fortnite, and that was quite a while ago.

[raw raptor]

none on my team luckily

[fickle drift]

lol yeah, but kids will be kids.

[pliant hatch]

sometimes they can be funny

[raw raptor]

depends on the kid

[sour steppe]

Depends on the ambient kids are in too

[amber mirage]

Me when someone tries to say Pong isn't the best video game

[pulsar cobalt]

You kidding me this is a forge map ?

[sage hare]

Not gonna lie I keep in game communication off.

Hats off to the guys who use it but when its used 90 percent just to be toxic I dont see the point.

[willow glacier]

why is the armor lock in halo reach so glitchy

[round laurel]

I mean, voice chat is a ghost town these day.s

Although playing BattleBit Remastered makes me appreciate voice chat again.

[sour steppe]

I love infection mode is fun

[sage hare]

I'd honestly go as far as to say its my favourite iteration of online match made infection.

[fickle drift]

mark v [b] best core

[sage hare]

It really shouldn't have taken them this long to get around to it, but at least it does slap.

[sour steppe]

Yeaah

[civic frost]

AYEEE the best halo 5 map is comingggg

alpha infected should get at least 40 xp a kill

[burnt frost]

Will plaza be added to the infection playlist?

[idle lava]

Is there anything you have to do with any websites? Like do you just log into the game after you reach max rank and get it?

[obsidian wyvern]

no?

[jagged cedar]

I don't think you need to do anything special someone said that all they did was earn the rank and it appeared in halo infinite

[main void]

Hi, one for ranked please ?

[amber mirage]

#lfg-competitive

[fleet bluff]

"Yeah, can I get a uh... hm... let me get a premade for ranked, large size and uh.. Some comms on the side and extra steaktacular sauce with that too"

[round laurel]

What rank are you?

[placid idol]

So will there be a Halo Wars 3? The last xbox showcase was a let down

[round laurel]

The magic 8 ball says, "maybe."

[carmine fractal]

Halo wars 3 probs ain't gonna happen

[idle lava]

144

So it'll be a bit

[round laurel]

Yeah you've got a way to go.

[idle lava]

Considering the massive grinf

[placid idol]

I want two Halo Wars games, one that is a Age of Empires like game that covers all pivotal moments of the franchise from the forerunner - flood war all the way to the end of Halo 3.

[carmine fractal]

I dunno that's asking a little much.

[placid idol]

The second one I want it to be a Starcraft rip off, I mean Blizzard is almost here anyhow, that covers the events from Halo Guardians, Halo Wars 2 and everything priot to Infinite. Bsically Cortana became Kerrigan anyhow.

[bronze breach]

Infinite is the focus for the foreseeable future, unless 343 says otherwise

[fickle drift]

Why do grenades feel so delayed

[timid crane]

People said the same thing about halo wars 2 before it was announced and released

[placid idol]

Creative Assembly and Blizzard can make the Halo Wars games while 343i works on whatever comes next.

[carmine fractal]

I'm not sure

[placid idol]

You have no idea how big would be if Blizzard made Starcraft using Halo assests. Over 10m players confirmed.

[bronze breach]

Activison takeover unlikely to go through CMA blocked it, FTC will likely do the same, right now there is an injunction, Australia also set the block it.

Also they wont help on halo. Even if it goes through

[placid idol]

Oh well one can drea

*dream

[shut nymph]

is the game good

[round laurel]

More people would prefer SC 3

[bronze breach]

If anything, The Coalition will help 343. Microsoft established Xbox Technology Group within the studio to develop new tools etc for the wider xbox games studios organization

[timid crane]

All I’m saying is don’t rule out anything when it comes to a new halo game, and I’d wager most people who make “suggestions” on how to run halo or 343 has never actually been in charge of a company, I personally feel like 343 has done a excellent job and yes there’s been learning curves for them but they surprise me every time with something new so 🤷‍♂️ I say let 343 do there job and support the franchise we all love, regardless how YOU feel you would do something different in there shoes

[distant jay]

I just finished my forge map and then I did custom game and got 24 people immediately

[timid crane]

No real point in arguing the same dead point constantly in this server

[placid idol]

It would be cool if id software made a halo spin off title but I am certain they are doing a Hexen reboot, it is almost confirmed.

[bronze breach]

Hey I'm the ceo of 434 Studios though and I made a game called ring!

[timid crane]

Based

[placid idol]

how about Toroid

[bronze breach]

Never heard of it lol

[steady jolt]

After the FTCs recent performance in the hearing, it's really not looking good for their side.

[placid idol]

Hey remember those windows surface Halo games? I played Mighty Doom which lower my standards so badly I am actually nostalgic for Halo Spartan Strike / Assault, they eeded some refinement but they were fun.

[bronze breach]

Is there any latest coverage?

[tight remnant]

You never played fortnite?

[steady jolt]

Haven't checked today, but last week was a train wreck for them

[bronze breach]

Xbox or FTC?

[steady jolt]

FTC

[bronze breach]

Good, sounds like xbox knows their stuff

Even if the deal doesnt go through, with The Coalition helping all first party studios with their games, should help in some way.

I think as a consequence, it could be less Gears games

Dont know tbh

[obsidian wyvern]

the judge kept putting down the FTC, it was funny

[fickle drift]

Kinda confused tho how would all this make the CMA change their mind?

[obsidian wyvern]

this is a separate case they have to fight

well it's about the same thing I guess, just with another body

[bronze breach]

Guess how much train ticket refund is

[obsidian wyvern]

you have to pay for a refund?

[bronze breach]

If my ticket is £13, guess how much is the refund

[obsidian wyvern]

£3

[bronze breach]

Nah, never needed to yet. But its funny

£10

*£10 for administration fee for refunding ticket. So you'll end up with only £3

Might as well make use of the ticket

[obsidian wyvern]

oh I was right lol

[steady jolt]

CMA recently reversed a decision, so the possibility of them reversing their call with MS still has a chance

[bronze breach]

Only one they denied was the Asda-Sainsburys merger. That is a parallel case

Do bodies float in the ocean or stays at the bottom?

[dreamy stirrup]

yes

[tight remnant]

Ranked is definitely annoying going in solo queue.

[bronze breach]

Ahh.

Was wondering about the missing crew of titan. Even though their bodies maybe crushed from the implosion, whether it will float to the surface

[tight remnant]

The FTC hearing thing has been crazy.

[bronze breach]

Btb is also annoying when playing solo

[cedar turret]

Don't curse the mountain for casting a shadow when you put th

e floodlights there in the first place

[bronze breach]

Had some guy breaker and had the audacity to camp at my teams scorpion tail spawn with a rocket launcher

[sage hare]

I remember this! We had to had a few meetings about it because colleagues kept making up theories about how it was going to result in everyone losing their jobs and stuff. Good times.

[bronze breach]

Oh you a manager at either of them?

[fickle drift]

I think the issue is that they don't exist anymore

[bronze breach]

Very likely unfortunately

[sage hare]

Oh no not a manager, meetings probably a strong word. It was more like getting everyone in the store together to dispell rumors so people would stop worrying.

[steady jolt]

Ah, it continues tomorrow. Looking forward to Foss' live tweets again

[brittle lynx]

Strongholds live fire, I don't care if you spawn c stay away from it. The hold is A and B. 1 or 2 in back b 1 in pillars 1 or 2 in sandbags. Trap them to C spawn. Pull it together fellas🤙

[cedar turret]

Sounds like I need to sit on C

[bronze breach]

Last day of the week tomorrow at work before taking 2 days off for annual leave!

[near tree]

I like C and B, and watching them from crows nest

[bronze breach]

Just in time for an event tomorrow (I think)

[near tree]

Nice!

[bronze breach]

I'll go back to work on Monday. I dont work on Fridays and I got supermarket job off too for 2 weekends

Going to grind btb

[dapper portal]

Is there a calendar anywhere for the next playlist rotations for this month?

[bronze breach]

Afaik it's not released yet

Or been done at all yet

[dreamy stirrup]

New Arena Unlimited this week

New BTB Unlimited next week

[bronze breach]

Oh. Nice

Thank you

[dapper portal]

Thank u! That’s the featured one but there’s a social rotation too right ?

[tight remnant]

Does ask to join game even work? I've never had it work successfully.

[oak cave]

Hola

[obsidian wyvern]

I really really hope the event doesn't make you play the unlimited playlists for the challenges

[tight remnant]

Isn't there no playlist specific challenges though?

[obsidian wyvern]

they did that at the start of season 3 and I instantly got bored of chasm and cliffhanger

chasm*

[dapper portal]

U can swap challenges usually for non specific

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah but last time all the challenges forced you to play the unlimited playlist

[dapper portal]

But I wanted to confirm if the social playlist rotation also occurs tomorrow?

[tight remnant]

Yes.

[obsidian wyvern]

it should do

I hope they give us a timetable like they have in the past

[dapper portal]

So lone wolves gets rotated for snipers I’m guessing? I hope ? I’m so deprived of snipers lol I’ve been grinding lone wolves just to get shotty snipes

[obsidian wyvern]

dk

they haven't said anything about it

[dapper portal]

And yea I hope they give us a calendar with what modes to expect… I couldn’t find it anywhere

[bronze breach]

Going to head off to sleep. See yall tomorrow and enjoy your day/afternoon/evening/night wherever you are!

👋

[dapper portal]

Good night 🌙

[fickle drift]

What does unlimited mean

[obsidian wyvern]

cya later dark

[obsidian wyvern]

only one map in the playlist

well only the new ones, so it's either only plaza, or both plaza and forest

btb unlimited would just be scarr

[fickle drift]

Ty

[rare cedar]

Howdy

[obsidian wyvern]

! panda

[dapper portal]

I guess I would appreciate some clarity on the following:
Usually there is a featured/event playlist, a core rotational, a social rotational, and a ranked rotational.
What we know:
Infection is supposed to become a permanent playlist.
Ranked rotational is expected to stay for a month at a time now.
@dreamy stirrup says new arena unlimited this week and new btb unlimited next week (for im guessing the core rotational?)
What is the social rotational for tomorrow then?

[ember gorge]

Thoughts on halo infinite

[timber charm]

amazing gameplay, armors and forge

and progression updates is improvin so

[sage hare]

Better than it was, still not quite where it should be.

[ember gorge]

The progression system is kinda useless

[timber charm]

rewards for hittn high ranks wud be nice

[ember gorge]

You can only show it off to 4 people on btb and there isnt a real reward

[ember gorge]

Its gonna be a knee pad for hitting max rank I bet you

[round laurel]

Your reward is a sense of pride and accomplishment.

[sage hare]

Big agree. While the narrative being scrapped wasn't and isn't the biggest deal to me it still is disappointing and does make me wonder how 343 looks internally since the layoffs.

[tight remnant]

As someone who deeply cares about the story it is a big deal to me.

[sage hare]

Outside of that good start to season 4. Hope they can keep tempo throughout.

[sage hare]

Thats valid.

[timber charm]

i rlly enjoyed seein my spartan ngl

[ember gorge]

Will the next halo game not have a campaign?

[sage hare]

Who knows.

[calm fiber]

Please don't tag 343 employees. See #rules-and-guidelines for more information.

[ember gorge]

They fired everyone at the campaign department

[timber charm]

next halo release might be a certain mode

[round laurel]

Yes.

[tight remnant]

Also it's very clunky inviting a whole team after a game. No one is teaming up though 😦

[steady jolt]

There will still be Halo campaigns released

[tight remnant]

You can see the back of your spartan in the menu from far away

[timber charm]

i ACTUALLY appreciate that alot tbh

[safe harness]

Source?

[round laurel]

MS seem to still be pushing SP experiences with their first party titles. I reckon the next Halo game will have a campaign, or a similar component.

[rare cedar]

Boom!

[timber charm]

👏

[safe harness]

That doesnt say campaign

[rare cedar]

Story = campaign

[safe dawn]

Yes

[safe harness]

Multiplayer has a story does it not?

[sage hare]

I can only assume it means campaign, we all know it can't mean online narrative experience.

[timber charm]

it kinda sorta doesnt anymore

[safe dawn]

And books, and hopefully, movies, and the second season of the halo tv show

[round laurel]

To be fair, that statement is ambigious.

Not that I expect them to confirm exactly what will arrive in the future.

[safe harness]

Shouldn't be posting misinformation mods!

[round laurel]

They're not posting misinformation, chill lol

[steady jolt]

🙄

[rare cedar]

Literally the studio head said that

But ok, I’ll stop

[sage hare]

ONI psyop.

[round laurel]

Let's just wait and see what happens. We probably won't hear about anything Halo related in the videogame space until the next project is nearly ready.

MS don't seem as keen on announcing games super early anymore.

[sage hare]

By the way did they ever clarify if the story content was cut for this season or is it pretty much gone indefinatley?

[timber charm]

[elfin glacier]

No news yet

[obsidian wyvern]

wtf did you do to get the kill

..land on their head?

[cedar turret]

Mario rules

[fickle drift]

How do you play with all that stuff on your screen

[obsidian wyvern]

it's edited on

to remove his username

[fickle drift]

Not that

I mean the screen shake and stuff

[obsidian wyvern]

oh right

[solemn wyvern]

Speed lines?

[forest lagoon]

You know how the flash can phase through walls and even people? I'm thinking that is what happened, to not be graphic

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah I disable that as well

[obsidian wyvern]

I think that's more graphic than doing a mario as dozen said lol

I haven't actually watched the flash but I'm now imagining the a-train doing that

[forest lagoon]

But not as graphic as saying he phased through the enemy when teleporting, causing his molecules to forcibly appear and arrange into their proper order inside the enemy Spartan's helmet which in turn caused the enemy to implode like a confetti canon

[obsidian wyvern]

OH

wait if that's what happened that's cool af

I actually thought the kill was granted because pins landed on their head

[forest lagoon]

What would have made it better was a splatter medal lol

[steady jolt]

[forest lagoon]

But is that even a possibility? Like if you fall on top of an enemy there's no collision damage

[obsidian wyvern]

idk

I know there's something called telefrag? I think it was called that anyway

[empty salmon]

Me waiting casually here that my crush asks me out

[obsidian wyvern]

thought it was smthn to do with throwing a grenade through the QT but that's not possible

[bold laurel]

😢

BS

[obsidian wyvern]

I remember them saying something about a Spartan being somewhere close to your to location, granting it

[obsidian wyvern]

on mouse?

[solemn wyvern]

Huh

[forest lagoon]

Are you the crush they are waiting on?

[sage hare]

Well go on then @obsidian wyvern don't keep the poor fellow waiting.

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah I don't move like that

[sage hare]

Oh is this more of an Aegis thing?

[obsidian wyvern]

what lol

[tight remnant]

How is that distracting?

[obsidian wyvern]

it is imo

[tight remnant]

Teleport inside of them

[obsidian wyvern]

that's cool

[amber mirage]

Some people are just built different

[bold laurel]

yeah

[tight remnant]

Very gruesome

[obsidian wyvern]

idk if posting the boys opening death is too much for this server

[fickle drift]

It just doesn't look smooth idk I feel you'd miss some information with having all the screen effects on

[tight remnant]

Probably is

[fickle drift]

Also can you show what it said in the kill feed? Like does it have it's own symbol. You can blur out the names obv

[amber mirage]

All those screen effects are there to provide more information. Disabling them reduces the amount of information on screen.

[fickle drift]

Information that isn't necessary tho, you might not be able to see a guy in the corner of ur screen if u have it all on

[tight remnant]

It's not that much

[sage hare]

What info are we on about sorry? The kill feed?

[hardy storm]

Some people have sensory overload, sometimes a busy screen is enough to trigger it.

[amber mirage]

It's mainly a matter of whether or not you are good at "reading" the screen and processing the information.

[fickle drift]

There's a reason you don't see any pros with it on tho that's all I'm gonna say

[tight remnant]

Other stuff give me sensory overload but not that

[amber mirage]

I guess it can be a bit much if you have ADHD or other conditions that make sensory overload more likely. For the most part, you just learn to parse it easily with exposure/practice.

[forest lagoon]

I find for me to focus on something well, I need to be ignoring something else

[obsidian wyvern]

ngl I don't like having too much on screen either, but I just learned to deal with it in some games like Titanfall 2

[amber mirage]

The key is finding something to focus on, but learning to swap your focus.

[fickle drift]

I hope that br model is out tomorrow

[winter flame]

Screen shake makes me feel sick ngl

Idk how it’s default

[obsidian wyvern]

at 100% as well

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah I'm not very good at that

focusing on one thing is hard enough for me

[amber mirage]

Playing fighting and rhythm games forces you to get good at that

Things move so fast

I've tried so many rhythm games but I've never been able to do well

[amber mirage]

I was awful when I first started

Start at the lowest difficulties then work your way up

[tight remnant]

No leak discussion at all basically real or fake.

[sage hare]

Sorry.

[tight remnant]

hi-fi rush

[obsidian wyvern]

trust me, I've got friends who are obsessed with rhythm games so I've always tried getting into them. had so much help too but I've stayed struggling

hi fi rush was kinda easy when I played through the first few missions

but I could still see I was messing up a lot

[tight remnant]

I'm tired of being gold 😦

[obsidian wyvern]

didn't everyone place gold

if this is ranked slayer

[amber mirage]

I placed Diamond 3

[fickle drift]

This is why I like QP more than BTB. Too many people and stuff going on so I hyper focus on something and get killed faster. I also don’t like playing games that have a lot of stuff flashing and going on, or even like stuff Sonic Generations is hard for me as everything is so quickly moving I can’t focus on anything.

[tight remnant]

Progression system.

[round laurel]

Wait until you get to platinum...

[obsidian wyvern]

oh progression

[tight remnant]

It's insane.

[obsidian wyvern]

I saw loads of high level players place gold in ranked slayer

[amber mirage]

But for rhythm games practice really is the key

[tight remnant]

I just need a good time to grind a bit for onyx

Which is an issue in itself, getting a good team

[amber mirage]

In the game I play the most, it has 15 levels of difficulty. Songs on Level 3 were where I started struggling. Now, I can do up to level 10 pretty consistently.

[obsidian wyvern]

I just prefer quick play because it feels like I have more of a say in the outcome of a match, someone worded it really well here the other day. I can somehow focus on fast paced games though, luckily

[obsidian wyvern]

I guess I could go back and try whenever I'm bored, but I think I'd have to put tons of hours in to see any more progression

[elfin glacier]

I died

[obsidian wyvern]

and I know next week with the steam sale I'm gonna have a lot more to play anyway so I'll be putting it off

[round laurel]

What you looking to pick up?

[obsidian wyvern]

get good

[amber mirage]

Which games have you tried so far?

[winter flame]

Lmao just had two team mates start team shooting me cause my kills were low

[elfin glacier]

😔

[round laurel]

That will surely help!

[obsidian wyvern]

rhythm games?

[amber mirage]

Yeah

[obsidian wyvern]

portal 2, the rest of the half life 2 episodes. kotor*, splinter cell games maybe. there's a few more I can't remember

[obsidian wyvern]

honestly I couldn't name many, I played them a lot when I was younger. I put a lot of time into beat saber for example

[amber mirage]

Splinter Cell gets solid recommendations from me

[obsidian wyvern]

I remember there were some unironically really good rhythm games on Roblox too lol

[tight remnant]

The way I see it, I divide my XP in kills

[obsidian wyvern]

that's why I'm looking for them

I've got your list somewhere so was gonna go through that

[tight remnant]

I have 13390xp left until my next rank. So 100 xp is 1 kill. That's 133 kills about.

[obsidian wyvern]

still need to finish the old doom games too

[amber mirage]

I half remember listing things

[obsidian wyvern]

this was your order

Splinter Cell
Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
Splinter Cell Double Agent (there's an OG Xbox version and a 360 version that are two entirely different games)
Splinter Cell Conviction
Splinter Cell Blacklist

[fickle drift]

I have so many games that I wanna play but when I start playing them I just can't be bothered

[amber mirage]

I remember that list now

[obsidian wyvern]

I'm going through the fallen order right now but all the cutscenes are putting me off

they're unskippable and they're everywhere lol

[tight remnant]

I read splinter Cell Panda Theory

[obsidian wyvern]

lol

[amber mirage]

Going back to rhythm games, if you want to try out one, DJMAX Respect V is only on Game Pass until the beginning of next month, so you've got a few days to try that out. My personal favorite at-home rhythm game.

[obsidian wyvern]

looks like beat saber with the 2 sides

unless that is smthn completely different lol

[amber mirage]

That is literally just a menu background

[fickle drift]

The only rhythm game I've played is taiko

[obsidian wyvern]

lol nvm

[amber mirage]

It plays more like guitar hero

[amber mirage]

Taiko is fun

[obsidian wyvern]

ah ok

[fickle drift]

It's on gamepass too I'm pretty sure

[amber mirage]

I think that left Game Pass

[obsidian wyvern]

oh I've played taiko

[amber mirage]

It being on Game Pass was definitely how I started playing it

[tight remnant]

Halo infinite forge rythm game

[amber mirage]

The Switch versions are better, though

[obsidian wyvern]

I didn't even know it was on gamepass at any point

I used to play it during my computer science lessons lol

[amber mirage]

Once you play it with a drum controller, it opens up a whole new world

[obsidian wyvern]

didn't even know a drum controller existed

[amber mirage]

This is the official one https://store.bandainamcoent.com/nintendo-switch-taiko-no-tatsujin-drum-controller/

There's some third party ones that are way bigger meant to more closely resemble the drums the arcade machines have.

[fickle drift]

That's cute.

[civic frost]

infection is terrible they need to give alpha infected at least 30 xp a kill

i was first by a lot than got alpha and took me all the way down to 7th because of how little xp you get

[brave prairie]

lol

[round laurel]

Become the sigma zombie and you'll get that.

[lavish matrix]

[hasty zinc]

Dime sized hail. Neat

It's been awhile since I've seen hail like that

[lavish matrix]

it's just nature's way of adding texture to your car

[hasty zinc]

Saves on gas mileage

[civic frost]

did they add new sounds to streets like i’m hearing cars and dogs n shi

[hasty zinc]

Mythbusters taught me that

[civic frost]
