Had a great adventure many things were seen

[fallen grotto]

Was there a change in MMR with recent update. Two days ago (last time I played) I had my far share of W and L but today, it's constant L against teams that out match my team with scores always being something like 20 to 50, or no flags to 3 captures. Doesn't matter what mode I play I have played 10+ matches at it feels that way

[fresh drum]

the wanderer hath returned from his pilgrimage

[rare cedar]

Welcome back.

[bold sparrow]

Second day of a new event. All the higher ranks came back to finish it before going back to CoD

[fickle drift]

Wat is community play date?

[obsidian wyvern]

play with them and u can get an exclusive nameplate

[tight remnant]

There hasn't been a new AI colour since 1st of november of last year

[bold sparrow]

Nor a new AI since Iratus.

[fallen grotto]

Just did two more matches, same results, absolutely stomped on by enemy each match. This is so frustrating

[summer ice]

Hate that feeling

[raw summit]

Will firefight be it's own category or only matchmaking?

[summer ice]

However I got a Series S this week : D and I finally adjusted my sensitivity settings and I'm playing sooooo much better

Turns out I just like my sensitivity like the MCC type titles

[fallen grotto]

I am still on old Xbox one, can't figure out my sensitivity. Just always feels wrong.

[summer ice]

I looked at tips online and read what all the settings mean. Someone had a recommendation for a more "old" (like Halo 2 or 3) feeling.

[summer ice]

Not sure but I am so excited

Halo Infinite could use some PvE outside of the campaign

[raw summit]

Dude same, I can't wait to kick banished butt when it drops

(was gonna say a different word but apparently it's foal language..)

[wispy abyss]

being one of the people that made one of the halo 3 remakes the negative sentiment about sbmm ruining things has me kinda down

[pure pike]

i didn't notice much of a difference to quick play tbh

halo 3 on mcc is much sweatier

also congrats on getting in the playlist

[tardy thistle]

Wait that person made one of the maps?

[analog knot]

Does MCC have a published schedule for playlists? Ive been trying to make sense of the rotations but I cant 😦

[summer ice]

Oh shoot that's p cool hats off to ya mate

[tardy thistle]

Hats off lol

[summer ice]

I do use that term idek why LOL it makes me sound like an old British person

[tardy thistle]

We said it at the same time but fr pretty cool to do that on infinite

[summer ice]

Yeahhhh

I just noticed in the top-right one of the mod's statuses is "Wake me when you need me" that's so fitting tbh

[raw summit]

Bruh I'm British lol

[summer ice]

lol no offense tho it just sounds sophisticated and old school LOL

[raw summit]

None taken man lmao

[wispy abyss]

isolation

[tardy thistle]

Gonna hop on rn and hope I get to play it lol thx

[obsidian wyvern]

people going on about sbmm have no idea what they're on about

they're complaining about fair matches and it's stupid

[wispy abyss]

THat's a bit of an oversimplification. It can be statistifcally shown via api that the matchmaker is essentially creating hopeless matches in the most recent playlist. less than 10% chance. Something is definitely not properly configured or its a population size issue

[dreamy stirrup]

@wispy abyss dont' sweat it, a lot of people don't understand how it works

the maps are fantastic ❤️

[wispy abyss]

i dont mind fair matches but its pretty clearly a snake draft.... and you can't snake draft against a 4 stack. destiny 2 used to have the same issue

[obsidian wyvern]

those must be anomalies because I've been asking around a lot and the matches, including my own, have seemed to be very fair

and tbf those insane odds have been there since launch unfortunately

[wispy abyss]

fair enough i suppose. One thing i do agree with is that for a halo 3 rewind theme the weapons racks should have been static to allow for more predictable locations. I have always been confused at the "channel based" system

[bold sparrow]

I still dont think its SBMM. I just think that theres no more "BK"s as they used to call them.
Its been 20 years since shooters first properly came to console. More than enough time for a new generation to grow up with them at a young age.
The skill gap has shrunk dramatically, and overall game skill carries between shooters (at least, the basic parts anyway).

bring it back

why did it only show one image

[candid solar]

I always get these vibes from SBMM convos.

[analog knot]

Very few people fall into the categories where a SBMM conversation makes sense. Most people are, by definition, average.

I dont have fun playing when every game its required I get 40 kills for my team to have a chance, and its worse when I do that and still lose - but at the same time, with such low populations its harder for the matchmaker to enforce its expectations.

[feral yew]

I think its disingenuous to say that people just want to stomp other players and win every game.
Halo has always been good at balancing the teams and keeping it pretty 50/50

I think people dont want to be steamrolled so badly that they look worse than a bot

[pure pike]

I agree most people are average, the problem is the skill variance becomes much greater as you go up the ladder

[fickle drift]

🫦

[lime knoll]

Not just skill variance but luck/favoritism (not saying there is but most videos I seen have 343 favoring some creators)

But those creators definitely took a long time to keep retrying to get a good play/montage

[fresh drum]

?? gman what happen

[bold sparrow]

The cutting room floor for most streamers is extensive

[pallid island]

BASED

I just want a fair match after all, mcc should learn from this

Like, im not even good and i get pub stomped on halo 2 all the time

[fresh drum]

i think the true root of this evil is ego

like yeah man some days you get stomped other days you stomp

other times, miraculously, its an even and hard fought match

[shut anchor]

I'm loving the halo 3 maps

Except that glitchy one

[pure pike]

i deleted my comment, didn't think my point through

but yeah i agree with you ego plays a part

nobody's really carrying every game, we just feel like the main character sometimes

otherwise everybody would be onyx lol

[obsidian wyvern]

[muted rose]

The way I see it, it essentially just an example of gamblers fallacy

A couple bad matches doesn’t change anything statistics and probability wise

[nocturne fjord]

How can I get my forge map into matchmaking?

[elfin glacier]

did you know: 95% of gamblers quit before they win big

[muted rose]

True statement

[little coral]

im fine with getting pubstomed but even with sbmm i still get stomped regularly

[fresh drum]

stomp harder

[hasty zinc]

I didn't get picked for the Jury

[little coral]

i want to but i never can, no matter how much i try im always just below average in each and every game. it also makes pub stomps less rewarding because i have no clue if i was able to because i was playing good or only because i sucked so hard the game sent me to super hut juniors to make me feel better

[bold sparrow]

Lot of the games I've been playing have been really even recently

[fresh drum]

genuinely asking have you considered just altering your play style to the map/gamemode ? for me when i notice im getting rolled ill dial it back and reevaluate my strategy

[elfin glacier]

i kinda want to be on a jury but also i need more moneydollars

[little coral]

ive tried yet little has changed

[fresh drum]

id wanna be on jury but only for the cool cases and how often u get those

[fresh drum]

if ur on console maybe try turning off crossplay? try to even out the mmr and then go back

[little coral]

im on pc unfortunately

i also dont really know what im doing wrong/right. if i develop a good habit and get destroyed when following it ill ditch it, and if i develop a bad habbit and i do well since im placed in lower lobbies ill keep it.

i never feel like im making any strives as a player or learning anything

[young nexus]

Do you play solo?

[little coral]

yea

[young nexus]

🤔

Do you play ranked?

[grizzled gazelle]

Me @ rushdown hammer: bonk mallet go brrr

[little coral]

no and i never will

[young nexus]

I like you. Want to play a few matches

[little coral]

maybe, not right now though

[limber prawn]

got my first ninja today in the "sweatiest" playlist

[young nexus]

Sounds good

I got a quigly a lil while ago

[limber prawn]

whats a quigly

[young nexus]

It was nice. (Two kills one sniper shot)

[limber prawn]

oh sick good job!

[young nexus]

I only play a few playlist (since i crave pve action), what kind of game types do you play?

[little coral]

btb and squads mainly but i dont really care about playlists

[young nexus]

Im currently playing tactical

[west finch]

hola

[limpid nova]

Anyone having issue with ultimate challenge I hit a skewer headshot but didn't tick it off

[obsidian wyvern]

can't be a no scope

[exotic nest]

yes, I have no idea how it works. I've gotten kills with the shock rifle and sniper now, headshots

[dusky swan]

[steady jolt]

There is an issue right now where it is not tracking shock rifle kills

S7 sniper (standard, not variant) and skewer should work, scoped in

[steady jolt]

Oh no, hope it clears up soon :(

[dusky swan]

I’ve had it for a week. WFH training is not very fun lol

I was hoping it would’ve been clear by now

[dreamy stirrup]

the challenge text has been updated in-game

it's now a scoped headshot with the S7 or Skewer

[quaint sapphire]

Thanks, I’m stealing this one

[dusky swan]

[exotic nest]

Thanks. I was wondering since I got a noscope with the sniper and many shock rifle kills.

[dreamy stirrup]

it's always been that but now the text is correct and explains 🙂

[fresh drum]

thank u for clarity sam

[limpid nova]

If you get that scope icon shouldn't that be a headshot or does that mean headshot also, I got a skewer kill with the kill feed and a scope icon?

I meant the scope icon in a kill feed is for a scope kill and headshot lol

[fresh drum]

scope icon is headshot, skewer or s7 i believe

[sinful karma]

is the mini-spawn cutscene gun glitch ever gonna be fixed?

[steady jolt]

Did you file a support ticket for it?

[exotic nest]

phew I got it with a regular "sniper" medal

scoped in one shot one kill

might wanna do this one early because people were already crowding around sniper spawn in btb to use the weapon

got mine in fiesta luckily

[fresh drum]

i mean its only 3 kills husky raid would knock that out so quick

[exotic nest]

has to be the normal sniper though

[fresh drum]

regular husky raid

[sinful karma]

Nah how do I?

Happy birthday OG Xbox & Halo CE!!!

Is btb snipers always been a thing lol might get it now

[round laurel]

I done the capstone through Husky Raid and a Flexfire. So if anyone is wondering if the Flexfire counts — it should.

[carmine yacht]

Hello will it be possible in the future to get vaulted armour items like from fractured tenrai?

[round laurel]

We don't know yet.

[dreamy stirrup]

it does not.

it specifically says S7

[bronze token]

What counts as a tactical rifle for the aim game challenge?

Just like battle rifle, sniper, and bandit or other ones too?

[tender cave]

Br, AR and bandit worked for me

Commando could work too? Idk haven't tried

[bronze token]

Alright

[hexed geyser]

What if there was a mod for Banjo/Halo called Cheif-Arby

[round laurel]

I completed the capstone with the Flexfire, not sure what else to say.

[amber mirage]

Same. Variants have always counted in the past too, so the S7 Flexfire should be the same.

[round laurel]

BR and Commando should work, but Halopedia lists the Bandit as an assault rifle rather than a tac rifle so I'm not sure if it's an error or how it's classed in-game. If you want to quickly get through this challenge, play Tactical Slayer.

Is there a way to get a refund for in-game halo purchase? My item is missing and support hasn't responded. Missing helmet from recent sanguine gift bundle

[calm fiber]

Operations are free to play events with 20 tiers of rewards. Players can optionally buy an event pass for 500 credits, which unlock an additional bonus cosmetic item, bonus XP and an extra Challenge slot while the event is active. You can also optionally pay 2000 credits to instantly unlock the entire event pass (including the same bonuses as the 500 credit purchase). Purchasing an Operation pass allows you to continue progress after the event ends. For more details please visit Halo Waypoint

[faint mantle]

All refunds must be processed by Xbox billing, but if you've equipped an item from the bundle, the chances of the refund being granted are low.

[twilit vector]

So what are the chances of armor items being sold separately from the bundle

[wild sleet]

Hopefully soon cause some of these prices are a bit much

[vale wren]

Pedro pascal is going to be Reed Richards in main mcu timeline
This is def a awesome moment for Pedro great actor

Cant wait to see how he does

Doctor doom might be the big bad of this

And I also think Loki ending was also meant to happen and Loki didn't stop nothing

22 years ago today my senior year GPA met it’s match

[cinder gulch]

If I remember correctly, I think only the Battle Rifle and Commando are tactical rifles. The Bandit is an assault rifle

[pure hollow]

4 TVs, 4 Xbox consoles, 4 interlink cables, 4 copies of Halo CE, and 16 controllers was all we knew

Imagine wanting Halo to chase trends.

We should get a Snoop Dogg Coating, Nicki Minaj AI. Sell the soul, pay the meat, kill the metal.

That's all sarcasm, but Halo's Halo, CoD's CoD. Different standards, different fans, different concepts.

If we get a talking gun AI thing Im going to have words with 343.

How much of it is complaints about the shotgun meta?

C'mon, they're not all bad

Shockingly, a bunch of idiots wearing plates wrong don't do great against shotguns.

The Eyelander is classy
Theres a difference

COD just took a weird MS Word looking cat and put it on a gun.

[candid solar]

Look at this silly billy, with an executioner's sword.

[faint mantle]

I was not informed of that part

[candid solar]

Blunt tipped sword with a flat blade is an executioner's sword.

[faint mantle]

Why would I need to be informed of an iPod?

[bold sparrow]

I mean, it still works as an executioners sword since the whole point of it is to take enemy heads

You take heads and you get faster, more health and damage resistance(?)

[candid solar]

Funny thing is, an executioner's sword was oftentimes repurposed to a sword of justice after it ceases proper functionality as an executional sword.

[errant current]

Sword of justice ?

[candid solar]

A sword of justice is a sword used to signify a monarch's supreme judicial power.

[bold sparrow]

Wasnt Cortana named after one of those

[errant current]

Ahh gotcha

[faint mantle]

EXCUSE ME! She named herself

Could be the usual suspects like the drivers or the wrong graphics card being assigned if you have more than one I hope you manage to get it going again

[obsidian wyvern]

randomly saw someone in my lecture has a masterchief background for their phone, im not the only halo fan here

[steady jolt]

You should go up to them and say "hey, that's the dude from Fortnite"

[hasty zinc]

and then start dabbing

or do the default dance

[amber mirage]

Do the Orange Justice

[hasty zinc]

[amber mirage]

It would take me about a year of concerted effort to figure out how to coordinate my body like that

[hasty zinc]

I couldn't do that with whatever life I have left

I can't even floss (the dance not the tooth care) and I've been trying to do that for years

has anyone here played Halo Infinite on one? how is the performance? what settings did you use?

[obsidian wyvern]

@young thorn

hes probably at work rn

[lucid river]

I Can donwload it and give it a go, i own one but ive not played halo on it yet

ive done reach's campaign on it though and it worked fine

[smoky token]

don’t go out of your way to do so

although I do appreciate it

[lucid river]

Eh, got that high speed internet 😛

I Don't tend to AAA game on it, its more of a psx ps2 ps3 & nintendo emulator for me

Finish this game of CS and ill pop it on download, you wanting campaign or pvp?

[smoky token]

pvp

if you are gonna do it anyway, maybe try specifically BTB and other modes with huge maps?

[lucid river]

Sure, I'll give BTB a go, and report back (:

Only issue is the Anti Cheat, you gotta boot up the non easy cheat version

So, there might be significantly less people playing // more prone to cheaters because it runs on linux

[lucid river]

Not sayoing linux is full of cheaters 😛
Its the anti cheat doesn't work on it

[young thorn]

Can't help on that one, I only played it a couple hours on my steam deck ages ago (when breaker was new). I decided I wasn't a fan of trying to do "serious" PvP FPS on the handheld (as in I played my worst on it and couldn't keep up with everyone).

Absolutely love the machine for a lot of other reasons though.

I'll actually give it another go now I've got expanded storage though, I was cramped for space with no SD card last time. I'll be back with some info.

It also might not have helped that I was just 8 years out of practice on playing with a controller.

[obsidian wyvern]

i was more looking at the $100 bundle

[muted rose]

100 bucks for top gun Maverick

Don’t like the movie that much

[wary dove]

I don’t understand

[hasty zinc]

ok just for my own sanity, the Pullman Plate gloves were supposed to be in the super bundle correct?

[wary dove]

In my region husky raid is the only played game mode

Everything else has 10min wait time it’s kinda ridiculous

[young thorn]

Do the base game. I got into Ace Combat after seeing the top gun movie last year, LOVED the ps2 trilogy and 7.
I think the movie licensing on the DLC affects how often they put it on sale.

[muted rose]

I think there was a issue with it that halo support addressed

Ace combat is one of the best flight sims out there tbh

[hasty zinc]

what was the issue? that they're not supposed to be in there or that they weren't unlocking?

[muted rose]

They weren’t unlocking, they are supposed to be in there (I think)

[hasty zinc]

oh ok

[molten pelican]

I think they should just play "golf with your friends" instead. Great game

[hasty zinc]

yeah I don't have them 😦

[fickle drift]

Good lord that $100 bundle get the base game and the maverick pack separately and you'll save major money 💰

[molten pelican]

[obsidian wyvern]

just haven't got round to it this time

[molten pelican]

currently the only ones available to me are fingerless

[molten pelican]

lets say the average pair of winter gloves costs 15 dollars and you live to be 78. That would mean you have wasted 1,170 dollars, or 941 pound you could have spent on halo infinite cosmetics.

How. How do you just drop 4 people into one game at the same time
not a single one of thems ever played Halo before. I saw one of them attempting to melee a teammate.

Like...
Do. Do people not know about Bot Bootcamp? Do they not know about the Academy?
That stuff is literally there for you to get the feel for the game why do you drop right in like its nothing?!

[molten pelican]

@tulip quest have you done this

[tulip quest]

No

[molten pelican]

what are the chances of perishing

[muted rose]

Slim

It’s not a reticulated python so it isn’t big enough to eat you

Granted you’ll be eaten by a gator or mosquito while your at it but I just want to eat the eater

I have had gator before though

It was like mediocre jerky that was unchewable

It would sit in your mouth forever because it took so long to chew

[molten pelican]

ive heard its very very chewy yes

[tired wraith]

I helped it with gatoraid

[muted rose]

Gatoraid as in the healthcare system for crocodilians?

[tired wraith]

Indeed

Crocodilesdon’t really get one tho

[muted rose]

They just suck it up and walk it off

[tired wraith]

They just kinda die

Yeah

[muted rose]

There’s a video of a gator losing its arm because his friend missed the food and death rolled on his arm instead

[molten pelican]

lol what has this turned into

[tired wraith]

Wait how, he mistakenly ate it or something?

[tired wraith]

Croc talk

[muted rose]

Trench brought up frogs, and it turned into snakes and alligators. I will talk all day about reptiles if you let me

[molten pelican]

carry on

[tired wraith]

So anyways, lost gator arm?

[molten pelican]

yes elaborate

[lusty belfry]

I am a Florida man and have seen many a swamp cat in my travels

[muted rose]

Basically the zookeeper threw in some meat and the croc missed it with his mouth, latched into his friends arm, twisted a couple times, and ate the arm

And they were very calm about it

[molten pelican]

goodness

[tired wraith]

Wow, tbh I probably would have done the same thing

[pallid island]

toilet....... skibidi toilet?!

[tired wraith]

You did not just say that

[muted rose]

Hmm yes I lost my arm, how unfortunate.

[pallid island]

I did indeed said that

[lusty belfry]

I live about 5 minutes from Lake Jessup, which was a big nuisance gator dumping ground back in the day, it has the highest alligator population density than any other lake in the state, driving over the 417N state road that goes over the lake you can just see hundreds of em hanging out and at night you see all the reflections from their eyes

[molten pelican]

I respect your honesty

[tired wraith]

Food is food

[molten pelican]

thats better than a pool

[muted rose]

How big is the lake lol

[molten pelican]

fr

[muted rose]

Can’t possibly have enough fish and turtles

[lusty belfry]

About 16,000 acres

[tired wraith]

Geez

[muted rose]

Ok nevermind Theres enough fish

[tired wraith]

Yeah that’s enough for an entire village

[molten pelican]

childsplay for badlands chugs

[lusty belfry]

It connects to the St. John’s river which runs the length of the state and feeds into other massive lakes we have in the state

[pallid island]

Half life on steam is free guys

[lusty belfry]

We also get bull sharks in the lakes because the St Johns connects with the Atlantic

[muted rose]

You should swim in the lake

[lusty belfry]

Nope not at all, I’ll stay on a vessel on the lakes or the river but I don’t swim in the freshwater here

[muted rose]

I can’t imagine having not only alligators but also the most aggressive shark species

All in a lake

[molten pelican]

All men die, not all men truly live

[muted rose]

The cold where I live is more dangerous then anything

[lusty belfry]

Alligators are pretty docile compared to their crocodile cousins, still don’t wanna mess with them or anything, but crocodiles are much more aggressive in nature when dealing with people, and they get bigger, though alligators too can get pretty big

Most averaging at around 10 feet or so, with the biggest getting to be around 14-15 feet long

[muted rose]

Yeah I’ve heard that crocs prefer to tear faces off and gators just run away

[tired wraith]

Aren’t they usually extremely deep

[lusty belfry]

South Florida is dealing with a python problem which sucks, they’re screwing with the gators and crocs there, interestingly south Florida is the only place in the world where you can find alligators and crocodiles together in nature

[tired wraith]

I went canoeing in Alaska once and it was like 600-700feet deep

[pallid island]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/70/HalfLife/

[hasty zinc]

the canoe was 600 feet deep?

[muted rose]

Yeah I’ve heard that most of the deer and other mammals are dead or gone because of how many snakes there are

[lusty belfry]

Depends on the lake, Lake Jessup the one near me only maxed out to be around 12-15 feet at it’s deepest, most of it is shallow

[tired wraith]

The lake was 😂

[muted rose]

How many do you see usually? Do you have to go looking to find a python?

[molten pelican]

it had to fit a lot of people aegis

[tired wraith]

That’s been going on for a while right

[lusty belfry]

I’m in central Florida near Orlando, so I don’t see any pythons or crocs, though apparently pythons are making their way up north to the rest of the state

[lusty belfry]

Yeah, since hurricane Andrew

[tired wraith]

Crazy

I live around the same area and don’t see much

The most I see is just black racers

[lusty belfry]

Some snake guys snake society/habitat thing got taken out during Andrew and a massive load of pythons found their ways into the Everglades

All went downhill from there

[tired wraith]

I saw a water moccasin up in chieflan once

I’m don’t know if it’s common or anything

My dad shot it with a 12 gauge tho so

[lusty belfry]

Also been reports of idiots dumping infant nile crocodiles into the glades and naturally that’s gonna cause a problem with the gators and American crocs, they get so much bigger, and the Nile crocodiles are breeding with the American crocs, making hybrids

[lusty belfry]

They’re pretty common in Florida near any and all bodies of water

[tired wraith]

Oh ok

[muted rose]

I saw that one as well, the invasive species list is wild in southern Florida

[lusty belfry]

Probably the most commonly encountered lethal snake in the state

[tired wraith]

Don’t even look at all the Florida man episodes, there are too many to count. It’s at the point where you can find one on your birthday 🤣

That’s where it really gets wild. That list goes on and on

[muted rose]

We’ve had a couple rattlers in my backyard, they follow the rodents around. Worried one will follow a mouse in one day.

[lusty belfry]

Florida is pretty much a irl Jurassic park

[tired wraith]

Yep hahah

All we need is Chris pat

[lusty belfry]

Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neil

[muted rose]

Laura dern too and we’ll have the full set

[sturdy mauve]

he's already there in central florida :^)

[lusty belfry]

Even the saltwater can be sketchy at most of the beaches, New Smyrna Beach was the shark attack capital of the world for a while, lots of tiny reef sharks and black tips, white tips etc, but recently they’ve found that as those smaller sharks migrate down to our waters, bigger ones follow, tiger sharks and bull sharks, even some great whites who generally prefer colder waters

There was an instance years ago where a big crocodile was seen swimming along a coastline with an alligator pal

Can’t remember what kind of crocodile it was, and generally gators don’t like salt water, but I guess they can tolerate it for a little bit

[tired wraith]

... Because they couldn't change gameplay due to an armor?

Chief's also pretty average-sized for a Spartan.

3 members of Fireteam Majestic are like, at most, an inch shorter than him.

[sick raven]

He’s way taller than all the Spartan 4s

[candid solar]

He's literally canonically not.

He's 7'2". Spartans Hoya, DeMarco, and Madsen are all 7'1".

[sick raven]

https://tenor.com/view/master-chief-halo-gif-21908182

[candid solar]

Yes, that was artistic interpretation. He is not actually that tall.

I don't even need to look at the GIF to know that lmao

[sick raven]

Welll cutscenes are canon

Guess he stunted his growth in Halo 5

[candid solar]

Not really.

That specific part has been hard confirmed as being noncanon. He's not actually that tall.

Well, it isn't a correct statement, so not surprised.

[sick raven]

Ok

[candid solar]

Spartan IVs are canonically around the same heights as IIs, either way, so 🤷‍♂️

Even if it wasn't the case, height scaling is one of the dumbest pissing contests ever devised by Science Fiction fanboys.

I find it funny how cod kicks you out when you're in a helicopter killstreal thing or sniping in the same spot

[soft oak]

Wait wtf happened with apg

[hasty zinc]

he's an airline pilot now

[amber mirage]

APG: Airline Pilot Guy

[jaunty yoke]

Is the SBMM really a thing?
I ask because I played 6 matches of the Halo 3 refueled playlist and won 5 of them

Maybe I am the SBMM...

[obsidian wyvern]

maybe people just want to whine about what everyone is complaining about without thinking

[jaunty yoke]

Maybe it's just a me thing

Halo 2 on Legendary is not that hard to me compared to other Halos as most people say
But I also have a lot of experience playing the Halo 2 campaign

[lyric river]

Is halo 3 the best halo ?

[fickle drift]

🤢

[lyric river]

It has good in everuthing

[fickle drift]

[lyric river]

Everything*

[jaunty yoke]

Depends on who you ask

[lapis snow]

so by a miracle, I got some promotional Dorritos in Ireland, when I'm trying to go to the site to make a claim, it just says it was blocked by the security service. Why?

[lyric river]

Oh what Will your guys answer be ?

[candid solar]

Probs the fact you're in Ireland

[jaunty yoke]

From an armony of singleplayer, multiplayer and gameplay, my answer is Halo 5

[candid solar]

The best Halo is your own personal choice because to pretend there's an objective answer is idiocy.

[lapis snow]

why should this prevent me from visiting a website ?

[candid solar]

Region locking.

[lapis snow]

thats dumb

[candid solar]

Maybe you should write up your Congressperson then.

[jaunty yoke]

A lot of promotions are only available in United States, I'm from Mexico and have tried to enter many, very few apply for me

[lapis snow]

like, I have these products available in my store, why block a player that buys promoted products and actively takes part in this promotional event.

can I use the vpn trick ?

[steady jolt]

No

[jaunty yoke]

Probably to prevent false hopes, as many of these promotions involve shipping a reward to your home. And most of the times they don't ship internationally

[candid solar]

Because regions have different legal requirements and different companies have different methods of handling this, most popular being localization. Shipping and Handling costing extra for international customers is another significant portion of the issue, as MCV said.

"But they got [Product] to my country" doesn't mean they can reliably do so with non-[Product] items.

[lapis snow]

so are those Doritos illegal?

[jaunty yoke]

The Xbox Twitter account does the Sweepstakes thing where they give away a free limited edition console to a winner selected randomly. Although I do not know which countries can participate. (It's not like I'll ever win)

[candid solar]

Read the second part, it's important.

[steady jolt]

Unless otherwise stated, it's usually Xbox supported regions. There's a list on Xbox.com. They generally link to terms somewhere in the giveaway/promotion

[candid solar]

The Doritos are not illegal, but failing to deliver you a product you won can be, or can be bad optics, issues abound in general. Easiest way to avoid it? Ship the international product and region lock awards.

[lapis snow]

okay, does anyone from privileged country want my codes? (if they weren't somehow claimed by a guy just taking a photo of a bag at store)

[candid solar]

Oh, don't act all high and mighty, the EU got a bunch of Oreo codes and they have the clown car mongoose coating.

I want the clown car mongoose, dammit

[obsidian wyvern]

I bet you most people didn't even get the Oreo coating because the promo SUCKED

[candid solar]

It was easy to get around, tbh.

[obsidian wyvern]

nah it was not

[candid solar]

🤷‍♂️

[obsidian wyvern]

you had like the first 2 days to do the glitch and then it was hell

[jaunty yoke]

Or because it was happening during the game's lowest

[steady jolt]

One of these days I'm going to start a company that solely focuses on designing microsites for promotional rewards

[obsidian wyvern]

that's not what I meant

[candid solar]

Honestly, if you missed out on a promo when the game's "At the lowest", that problem's entirely on you lmao

"But if the game was better I would've been playing it" isn't an excuse either

[jaunty yoke]

You know what I'd take
Dead Space Remake's Isaac Clarke suit as a core or kit for my Spartan as part of a crossover

[candid solar]

I'm glad most crossovers thus far have been extremely limited.

[lapis snow]

lmao clown mongoose is really a thing? (also don't compare one oreo coating with dew loot, like, its obvious it is a whole different level and there is more of it)

[obsidian wyvern]

[candid solar]

Pop Dollie Mongoose

[jaunty yoke]

Wasn't the Halo 3 Mnt. Dew promo only for the US too?

[lapis snow]

ty for nightmare fuel ))

[obsidian wyvern]

I sent in such a strong message to game for their job listing and they didn't even get back to me

[candid solar]

Nightmare fuel? It's amazing. It's straight up my favorite coating in the entire game.

[analog knot]

Always knew you were a clown

[jaunty yoke]

I'd pay $25 to just choose my own color like in the previous games

[analog knot]

@jaunty yoke You should check out the options Halo Online had. It was nuts.

[jaunty yoke]

I was just remembering Halo Online's customization, it was great

[analog knot]

Does infinite have the color white yet?

[candid solar]

I liked the weapon concepts in that game. The shotgun-Covenant Carbine was neat.

[obsidian wyvern]

yes

and it's cross core

but not free ofc

[analog knot]

Cross core as a selling point should be a crime 😂

[obsidian wyvern]

it's what we've come to

[slender sundial]

And to make it worse it’s in like $/£ 20 bundle

[jaunty yoke]

You know what they could do, the same thing Fortnite does

[analog knot]

I don’t think comparing Epic and 343 would be fair.

[jaunty yoke]

To make choosing customized things easier, Fortnite just lets you choose everything and rotate randomly through your owned things for every game you play

Infinite could let you select all the cores and start a new match with a random one every time

[obsidian wyvern]

nah make kit presets that can be randomised

so I can make multiple mk7/v kits and they'll be in the loop

[jaunty yoke]

Maybe that's just me, but I costumized all the cores to look how I wanted, and even so, I only keep the same core on at all times because I can't be asked to manually go and equip another one

[obsidian wyvern]

my problem is weapons taking forever to change again

changing armour - no problem
changing all the gun skins, attachments and emblems -

[jaunty yoke]

And that's one thing

[obsidian wyvern]

I'd take this QoL update over crosscore for the time being

[jaunty yoke]

The other one is that it's pretty cool that UNSC weapons and vehicles can be customized with coatings and some with models
But when will the Banished arsenal get the same treatment

[obsidian wyvern]

I would like custom energy sword colours like mcc

[jaunty yoke]

Same

Need a green and purple energy sword to make some Star Wars machinimas

[obsidian wyvern]

I mainly want them to match with my Spartan stances lol

blue sword on a black and green Spartan ain't it

[jaunty yoke]

Hmmm

I really miss the Halo 2 sword with the predominant white with some blue, pink and purple particles

[candid solar]

NGL, I'd love to see this chest armor (The lights, knife, and tubes) show up in Infinite someday.

[tired wraith]

Are we still talking about crocs in Florida

I guess not 😄

[exotic nest]

howbout some holographic pieces that give away your position when hiding behind a rock?

[candid solar]

I wish I could find the image I had as a response to this. But I'd be fine with both.

Oop, found it

[fiery ravine]

@serene mountain ahhhh look at you all alone

[jaunty yoke]

The scrapped lean mechanic from an early Halo 3 build could have been used in ODST

[worthy crown]

aaaaaand he's destroying only cover those soldiers are given lmao

That's a really cool pic ngl

[candid solar]

40K Space Marine's concept art went hard tbh.

[worthy crown]

REAL

[jaunty yoke]

Not quite as hard as the Dead Space concept art of Isaac being sorrounded by necromoprhs in the dark

[candid solar]

I'm kinda sad Spartan Charge got removed from Halo because that sort of 'slamming through a wall with reckless abandon' energy was something Halo needed.

[tired wraith]

Spartan, SMASH

[jaunty yoke]

Apparently Halo fans don't like gameplay mechanics that make Spartans feel more like the heavy super strong soldiers that they're supposed to be

[tired wraith]

They are really soft rn

[candid solar]

Well, they'd rather say crazy things like how doing more stuff that showcases a Spartan's physicality makes them somehow feel like they're playing as "Power rangers" or "Gundams"

[jaunty yoke]

The thing that makes Spartans so lethal is that they're extremely heavy and strong but at the same time they're super nimble and move really fast
So they hit like a truck
They are durable as tanks and fast as bikes

[candid solar]

I loved one of the sequences in Outcasts because Vale straight up no-sells a squad of camo'd up elites in melee.

And it is not pretty for the Elites.

[jaunty yoke]

I get that people love the end cutscene in Cario Station when the Chief gives the Covenant back their bomb because well, it's awesome

But that should serve as an example of what Spartans are capable of, and makes people hating the beginning cutscene on Osiris in Halo 5 feel unjustified

[candid solar]

I once said that literally any Spartan who's ever served would've been capable of doing that stunt.

I still stand by that statement.

[jaunty yoke]

Same
I don't think Noble 6 is the only Spartan that could have taken Cortana to the Autumn

[exotic nest]

I firmly believe that one day we'll get a new invasion type mode in Infinite now that the foundation has been setup.
In it you'll probably be able to play as Elites AND Brutes since both are so important to the story. I'd love to see them give the Elites their signature roll and Brutes some kind of charge mechanic.

[pallid island]

What if Halo Titanfall

[candid solar]

Nah, I'd rather Halo Mantiswarrior.

[obsidian wyvern]

pls

[candid solar]

Mechwarrior, but you're a Marine Mantis pilot.

[pallid island]

idk what mantiswarrior is but whatever

oh i see cool

[jaunty yoke]

I don't doubt we can get an Invasion mode, in fact I want it
But does a team have to be a different species necessarily?

[obsidian wyvern]

I will pay a whole 70 for it and not get it off gamepass I promise

[candid solar]

Honestly, that's what I've been thinking for years.

[pallid island]

I mean as an spinoff would been great and also would be lore accurate to the books probably

[obsidian wyvern]

you can see more mechs being used in halo wars

I want the halo equivalent to Ronin

[candid solar]

So far the UNSC has a few mechs, yeah. Mantis, Geyrion, Colossus, Cyclops Mk2.

[jaunty yoke]

I'm thinking about a lore ensible way of justifying playable Elites or some other species in the current setting knowing that the multiplayer matches are wargames simulations for training

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/titan-fall-sword-ready-fight-gif-5987565

[exotic nest]

The one vehicle that 343 made that I think was a really good addition was the Mantis

[jaunty yoke]

The Phaeton was not half bad either

[exotic nest]

it fit with the setting for a prototype and was relatively balanced. Yeah that too.

[jaunty yoke]

The Wasp is meh tho

[exotic nest]

Like I said, now that the foundation for infinite is built I'm sure we'll see some crazy stuff. The wasp is too safe.

[obsidian wyvern]

the razorback is good in campaign

shambles in mp

[exotic nest]

Also, Covenant Vehicles are usually more balanced then their UNSC counterparts because of plasma not being basically hitscan. That's why I'm a big fan of more of them.

[jaunty yoke]

Razorback full of marines all with the Arcane Sentinel Beam
Overpowered killing machine

[obsidian wyvern]

the ghost is op in infinite

[exotic nest]

Wraith Tank was probably one of the best vehicles ever made from a balance perspective

The Ghost is definitely overtuned, I agree.

[hasty zinc]

it absolutely destroys on Isolation

[obsidian wyvern]

yep

and it spawning every 30 seconds on high ground was fun..

[exotic nest]

Isolation was never meant for the Halo Infinite Ghots, some of the Halo 3 maps should have been redesigned by the forgers with the balance changes in mind. A gungoose would have fit with the sandbox better.

[jaunty yoke]

I hate that when you board a Wraith from the front side the driver can just shoot next to a wall and kill the boarder with the explosion radius
Makes front jacking unreliable unless you have a grenade and can plant it fast enough

[obsidian wyvern]

isolation was never a good map lol, props to the guy who remade it because he did it well, but it's still isolation

[exotic nest]

Same with Valhala missing a missile podd and energy drain, while also having a skewer that spawns after 3 minutes instead of the instant Spartan Laser. Not enough anti vehicle options.
Beuatiful maps but man....DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE SANDBOX CHANGES FORGERS

[stiff locust]

Searching ranked team slayer 4s if anyone wants to play in Halo 3 MCC

[obsidian wyvern]

#lfg-competitive

[jaunty yoke]

The energy drain was busted tho, it paralyzed vehicles AND drained shields

[obsidian wyvern]

wait

[exotic nest]

Better then wasting 20 seconds trying to get into the scorpion tank because you got in the turret instead haha

[obsidian wyvern]

weren't we supposed to get the regen equipment this week

[jaunty yoke]

No idea

[obsidian wyvern]

tip: when you do that press jump to switch seats quickly

[jaunty yoke]

The missile pod in Halo 3 was ok but it was obviously an anti vehicle weapon, which always makes me wonder why there was a missile pod in Construct when there's no vehicles in there

[obsidian wyvern]

well I think it's jump because it's A on my controller to switch seats

[pallid island]

probably since is all a simulation, just that spartans like to play as elites idk

i doubt theres elites training in the unsc simulations, but invasion i think is canon for sure

[candid solar]

There are, or there were, at Anvil Station

[pallid island]

For the invasion gamemode? i mean pretty sure they made that canon

[jaunty yoke]

Oh there are
Some Swords of Sangheilios train with the UNSC
But that has been a thing true in lore since the Halo 5 days and they never made Elites playable in that

[cobalt schooner]

just went 21/8 and only got 5 points in ranked :/

[candid solar]

No, it wasn't for that.

[sick raven]

So is combined arms a tie in with the current halo lore?

[pallid island]

Ah

[sick raven]

Cuz it reminds me of Halo 3 or Halo 5

[hasty zinc]

Mmm breakfast for dinner

[jaunty yoke]

Dinner for breakfast

[full merlin]

Just stopping by for a second to say that I hope you guys capitalize on what happened over at Bungie by grabbing up both Salvatori and O’Donnell even just for consultation with future halo music. I honestly think the new guys did a good job with Infinite’s soundtrack, but its missing the magic sauce the original duo brought to the table.

[jaunty yoke]

Breakfast fans when uniteslow enjoyers come in: 😱

[tight remnant]

I don't want marty anywhere near halo

[jaunty yoke]

Maybe none of the 2 want to go back to the series, or Microsoft
