once had finish the fight line up perfectly to me loading into a game

[tall sand]

Marty is a literal genius at composition and the entire reason i wanna go into composition myself

[sick kelp]

real. I really appreciate the jazzy songs with lots of sax as a saxophonist. and some non jazzy songs have the lower saxes

[tall sand]

Man as a saxophonist of 7 years, deference for darkness is one of my top jazz songs period

[sick kelp]

exactly.

[fickle drift]

Greetings

[candid solar]

Bird

Eh. As long as you don't follow the crap attitude and ego of Marty, there are worse people to follow for inspiration.

[fickle drift]

Hmm, I have alot to learn

[elfin glacier]

it's so red
how

[candid solar]

It eats

[fickle drift]

This sounds like a cult discussion

[elfin glacier]

"like"

[elfin glacier]

it consumes

absorbs, one could say

[fickle drift]

Oh, so this is a cult. What we got on the table? Sacrifice? Rituals? What's up?

[candid solar]

Absorbs... Blood. Bloodbird ritual. Gets stronger with every drop spilt.

[tall sand]

I admire the work more than the person if that make sense

I also have zero ego

Thats the trumpet players you're thinking of, im a sax player

[candid solar]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[elfin glacier]

1957 bloodbird ritual incident

[fickle drift]

There's lore.... hmmmmm

[sage palm]

is anyone able to connect to the xbox app right now?

[sage palm]

I meant on PC

[obsidian wyvern]

ah I can't check that rn

[jagged coral]

Is it just me or is halo dookie now

[naive token]

I mean mcc is fun still (campaign) and If they do infinites sequel right it could come along well if they don't rush it and improve on the good mechanics of infinite like the grapple and sprint

[obsidian wyvern]

MCCs multiplayer would be good if the community playing it didn't suck

[naive token]

But they are bad or trying to hard

[pseudo flame]

Hi

Ban me

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/leave-go-away-just-leave-you-are-annoying-leave-server-gif-17802417

ok i didnt even see the guy before sending lol

[steady jolt]

Aaand they left

[polar sparrow]

Man, idk what it is about today. But all the mega fixation on competition and lesser community has done irreparable damage to Halo.

I blame esports

[steady jolt]

Halo and esports has been a thing for about 20 years now, it's not new

[polar sparrow]

Tru! I now blame lack of community.

[naive token]

I'm just trying to play a fun game

[polar sparrow]

Same, Homes. The custom browser has been a godsend

[naive token]

But halo infinite players either suck or are alright but beat you because being average isn't normal in that game

Though some are just good

[polar sparrow]

I just started Infinite and i guess im not at the level to get good players so to speak.

My friend and i were talking about the older mw2 and how it was a dice roll on the players youd be matched up with.

[naive token]

Just play the campaign on epic first

[polar sparrow]

I wanna play halo 3 refueld 😩, at least it got extended.

I did play a little bit of the campaign yesterday. I was hooked.

[livid oyster]

That refueled mode is amazing

[polar sparrow]

Yeah, i got this xbox and i thought it was gonna be out of rotation. Lucky me

[polar sparrow]

Now that i think about it. Alot of people rage quit (or maybe their game crashes?)

[polar light]

[hasty zinc]

Gonna design one off my clownmera

[signal musk]

Question: does it happen to everyone to download all those gigabytes of ranks when you play the game?

[candid solar]

... What?

[elfin glacier]

caching issue(my guess) causing some emblems to be redownloaded a lot

[polar sparrow]

Yeah, it happened to me. Each time i would launch the game it would take FOREVER to load.

Only on PC, series S works like a dream.

[molten pelican]

Trench get got

[normal owl]

Unbelievable luck: all 3 packs were Original flavor: 6/6 strawberry = 100%

[polar sparrow]

Quick! Get a scratch off

[normal owl]

lol I was thinking "why am I getting this luck with Starburst instead of the casino"

[polar sparrow]

Tis a sign

[proven storm]

Probably because casinos are rigged whereas starburst flavour is just pure luck

[polar sparrow]

As far we know

[proven storm]

😱

[obsidian wyvern]

nice lol

[normal owl]

Plus, Starburst are smoke-free.

not that eating pure sugar is healthy either, I concede...

[proven storm]

Id rather eat pure sugar than inhale hydrogen cyanide and the dozens of other chemicals tobacco contains

[normal owl]

Good point! So it is better to be lucky in Starburst than in gambling, we've now settled.

[proven storm]

Huh how did we get here, I was pointing out that luck doesn't have so much to do in casinos as it's meant to be rigged against you, it isn't just down to luck

Not what is better to be luckier with

[normal owl]

I guess these conversations also veer towards an unpredictable outcome. What a beautiful thing.

[amber mirage]

How do we know that Starburst aren't rigged?

[molten pelican]

how do we rigged that know is starbursts?

[tender oracle]

Is it possible to just player slayer in ranked matches ? I only see ranked doubles and ranked arena

[obsidian wyvern]

that playlist was removed about 2 weeks ago

[tender oracle]

Rip do you know if it will be coming back?

[obsidian wyvern]

it rotates in every so often

I think it's doubles for a month, then swat for a month, then slayer again

[tender oracle]

Yikes i do not like swat in infinite

[obsidian wyvern]

me neither

[tender oracle]

No worries I’m not the best in ranked anyways usually stuck in platinum. I just don’t see a point in playing casual cause it’s sweaty af anyway lol

[jaunty yoke]

I hate ranked

Only a few maps and very limited weapon sandbox
Is this seriously how pros like to play?

Playing Halo without power weapons is like playing Smash Bros without items 😭

[void wharf]

Which halo game was the worst

[jaunty yoke]

Probably Reach

But is there really a worst Halo game when they are all good?

What is this dude on

[elfin glacier]

That one halo mobile game tie in thing they did for 4

@steady jolt

Don't rile them up

I can't say an unbiased answer, so I'll just say my favorite
First Strike

[steady jolt]

Don't come in here telling us to do better

You can just can it

[dreamy stirrup]

i got home from teh gym and dropped my oatmeal packet on the floor

pain

[granite sky]

1 hour of silence broken up by gnome noises

[rare cedar]

At least it was in the packet still

[muted rose]

Floormeal

[steady jolt]

[void wharf]

Sick boy

[forest lagoon]

I've been getting over covid since I got back home

[dreamy stirrup]

[jaunty yoke]

They should add a gamemode where we fight skbidi toilets in Ohio with the rizz rifle and fanumtax 😎

[muted rose]

We’ll call it gen alpha slayer

[elfin glacier]

titan's playtesting it

[forest lagoon]

I was very much looking forward to a hot pocket for breakfast and Da Hub ate the last one

[muted rose]

What kind of hot pocket

Because a pizza pocket for breakfast is very nasti

[jaunty yoke]

I love pineapple on pizza

And chocolate mint ice cream

[muted rose]

Are you me

First strike pineapple on pizza on mint ice cream

That’s me

Identify theft

[jaunty yoke]

Well there is one difference

I hate myself
Because I'm an achievement hunter

+120K gamerscore

[muted rose]

I’ve 100% three games

Not including Lego games, both subnauticas, and the first garden warfare

Tbf subnautica achievements are structured so that doing the story gives you 98% of them

[jaunty yoke]

That's nice

100% on MCC was a real chore
took me 5 years

[muted rose]

There are some tasks I look at, just say “no.” 100% on Mcc is one of them

Do have respect for anyone who does have it though

Takes Dedication

[jaunty yoke]

I thought the LASO achievements would be the hardest

I was wrong

Getting an environmentalist medal in H2A matchmaking is near impossible, let alone 100

[muted rose]

It’s the multiplayer ones isn’t it

[jaunty yoke]

Yep

[muted rose]

When you get Lfg posts for just specific achievements it’s gonna be hard lol

[jaunty yoke]

Or when you have to abuse the system to get matched with a friend and grind the achievement

[analog knot]

If I could recently do the H2A splatters (which you can only do in BTB) I promise the Environmental one is doable

Definitely more of a long term goal though.

[queen remnant]

Enviornmental medal H2A is always pretty funny when you get it

[muted rose]

I got this one achievement for killing someone who was either a 343 dev, or someone who had th3 achievement. I said I had this achievement once and people thought I had killed a 343 dev instead of just killing someone who had the achievement

Which was funny because most of the time it’s one of the first you get

[jaunty yoke]

I'm curious

Now that Mega Blocks was rebranded to Mega Construx
Do the Halo sets that were released under the Mega Blocks brand now have increased relic colletor's $$$ value?

[pulsar cobalt]

is it bad i enjoy just sitting in the armour hall and just making spartans instead of actually playing 😂

[candid solar]

Nah. Fashion is the endgame of all good games.

[fickle drift]

I know this random but I personally liked Halo 3 ODST idk about everyone else , do anyone else thing ODST armor would be a nice addition to the selection on Halo Infinite multiplayer ?

Or I’m tripping 😅

[candid solar]

ODST armor is literally already in the game.

[pulsar cobalt]

You have rak you got odst helms odst chest piece for rak and at some point you will be able to use the odst shoulders on rak

[elfin glacier]

those achievements spread virally, i kinda want to see a graph of how many people got that achievement over time

[jaunty yoke]

I never liked the idea of giving the ODST armor to Spartans
It kinda takes away the uniqueness of the ODSTs

[mental agate]

Me too but I'm learning to finally let go 😂

I do wanna try and get most of the MCC ones if I can but I won't sweat it if I don't 100%

[fickle drift]

Good luck

[mental agate]

Thanks probably gonna grind it sometime next year

[jaunty yoke]

The achievement on Infinite for killing 100 enemies in coop while everyone is on a flying vehicle sounds like pain too

[fickle drift]

Yeah I’m gonna try to beat them all

[mental agate]

Funny enough the game that broke me was Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Has these platforming/combat challenge mini levels called Force Tears. The platforming ones made me rage

So I've decided I'm not gonna sacrifice my fun anymore just to get 100%

I got a long backlog anyways

[fickle drift]

Ohh I didn’t know

[topaz heron]

ODST armor was here in S1

[elfin glacier]

was here in S0

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 5 has 2 different ODST helmets

[muted rose]

The boss fights?

I remember those ones now

I went back to the beginning of coroscuant and found one with two rancors

[jaunty yoke]

I can't play Jedi Survivor because I'm still in Jedi Fallen Order stuck in a puzzle I don't know how to solve

[muted rose]

Gave up after like 25 tries

[restive plover]

Any of y'all play Halo on the xbox?
My headset died and I am in the market for a new one. No price limit.
But when I research reviews on headsets, like the artic nova 7x or the blackshark v2 pro, all i get are youtube videos of people reviewing how great they are on PC. They show all the amazing things these headsets do on PC.
Great, but I do not have a PC. And I cannot find information if these headsets are great for the Xbox.
I do not want to purchase a $200 headset that does all these amazing things on PC, but "just works on the Xbox."
Any suggestions?

[jaunty yoke]

I use the headset that came in with the Xbox

[restive plover]

Hmm. Mine didn't come with one...

[mental agate]

The platforming ones specifically are what I couldn't beat...the combat ones I did

[obsidian wyvern]

i use the razer kraken, pretty good

50% off rn too

[signal musk]

Does this happen everytime i load the game or can i sleep peacefully?

[polar sparrow]

For me, it's everytime.

Hopefully ur spared.

[obsidian wyvern]

what happened now

[steady jolt]

Probably Marty tweeting about his Spotify wrapped

[obsidian wyvern]

surprise, marty is annoyed over spotify wrapped bunching all of halo music under the name halo

lol

[quick escarp]

Surprisingly halo stuff has been trending lots of times on twitter for months now

[candid solar]

Never gonna beat the manchild allegations, is he

[quick escarp]

Pretty cool, at least when it’s for good reasons.

[restive plover]

👍🏽 appreciated. I will def check them out.

[obsidian wyvern]

it is huge though ngl, it doesnt feel heavy but its pretty big

[queen remnant]

But if you go to the song you can see the artists who made it

[void wharf]

Am I the best halo player here?

[restive plover]

Yup. Hands down.

I die a lot. Blow my self up.

[errant kite]

So is it just impossible to find games in the MCC now? Especially when its Infection?

[amber mirage]

You use a headset? How come you never talk?

[jaunty yoke]

Yes

[bronze breach]

He is a bot...

[void wharf]

Thank you

[obsidian wyvern]

i dont like my voice lol

[granite sky]

look in custom game browser for infection

[jaunty yoke]

The only times I look skillful in Halo is in FFA because I usually win
But I'm more inclined to believe that I'm not good and FFA players are just fingerless

[amber mirage]

I don't know anybody who does

[obsidian wyvern]

true

i did speak to recon fine when we were playing ranked

also when im playing with you guys in NA, its usually past midnight so i dont talk so i dont disturb anyone

[amber mirage]

That makes sense

[molten pelican]

I wish I could speak

[amber mirage]

Same

[molten pelican]

🤝

[jaunty yoke]

The Rookie be like

[molten pelican]

me and pebble got stuff in common

[errant kite]

Is there usually more players playing custom games instead of social matchmaking?

[molten pelican]

maybe he didnt like his voice either, dont be insensitive

[errant kite]

Cause i cant even find an Infection game from Halo 2-4, its only Reach

[amber mirage]

I never took the public speaking class when I was a student, so I never learned how to do it

[jaunty yoke]

Based on the LFG posts in Xbox, Infinite is more popular than MCC

[molten pelican]

@obsidian wyvern you checked out the free weekend yet?

[obsidian wyvern]

oh yeah

[granite sky]

i think so, theres usually plenty of rooms to choose from, faster. and try out the unique invasion gamemodes too

[molten pelican]

alas

[obsidian wyvern]

ill start downloading it now

[errant kite]

Dang. Ight then thanks 👍

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah but the game browser is usually full of clan recruitment servers and assassination-only maps

[obsidian wyvern]

i forgot the game name lol

[molten pelican]

[bronze breach]

Dont forget me. The good old lfg looking for campers like me

[obsidian wyvern]

[bronze breach]

When is season 6?

[calm fiber]

Hold up, waaaay too early yet. Keep your puny armor on!

[obsidian wyvern]

ok that was fast

[bronze breach]

:l

[molten pelican]

yeah its basically minecraft

[obsidian wyvern]

ill have to get round to it tomorrow, need to do some work

[bronze breach]

Coding work? 👍

[obsidian wyvern]

that wasnt my job, im just compiling all the different docs into one - and then formatting

[bronze breach]

Ahh the user documentation...

[obsidian wyvern]

lol yeah

[bronze breach]

Have fun.

I need to dig up my old undergraduate law books now

Have a group interview for a job and I have a feeling they will test my knowledge of the law

[obsidian wyvern]

realistically itll take me about 20 mins max, but im lazy so ill be spending the next 2 hours with loads of 10 min breaks every few lines

[bronze breach]

Welcome to uni.

[obsidian wyvern]

its how ive always been ngl lol

[bronze breach]

Myself, I used to leave things last minute

[obsidian wyvern]

this is basically last minute haha, its due tomorrow at 11

[bronze breach]

Like on deadline day for an essay, me and my friends rewritten our essays from scratch

[obsidian wyvern]

we've had a good month or so to do it

[bronze breach]

Because we felt the answer was wrong lol

Yeah, I can relate!

[obsidian wyvern]

me throughout all of sixth form

[bronze breach]

Ngl, I miss uni days

[obsidian wyvern]

and highschool i guess, we'd bring in our work to the lesson, see everyone elses answer and rush to change everything

[rare cedar]

Rev slacking on homework? Color me surprised

[bronze breach]

So much fun hahaha

[obsidian wyvern]

less stress here, but less fun than high school for me

[bronze breach]

First year is alright

Second year need to take a bit more seriously. 3rd year, you panic

[obsidian wyvern]

sounds accurate with what ive been told

[bronze breach]

My uni days was first year = 0%, 2nd year = 25%, 3 year = 75% in terms of degree weighting

[jaunty yoke]

Probably early February

[bronze breach]

Nice. Ty

Also master chief armor kit not customizable apart from coating and visor?

[jaunty yoke]

Not sure, I don't have any of the 2 lol

[bronze breach]

Bought it day one from store and found that it's only visor and coating that's customizable. Little disappointed ngl.

Unless it was a bug. But tbh, I haven't checked since.

[naive token]

I mean it makes sense

[bronze breach]

Yeah

[naive token]

Disappointing yes.
Reasonable also yes

[hasty pebble]

Anyone else just lose connection to their game?

[safe dawn]

Not a bug, only the visr and the coating are customizeable for kits

[safe dawn]

Awh man, you had me thinking it was real lol

[jaunty yoke]

Lol

[harsh vector]

I thought it was real 😭

[jaunty yoke]

What would they even add if it was real? Supressed SMG?

[safe dawn]

Smg, some of the other odst gear attatchments from 3 odst maybe

Time to prank a friend though :)

[harsh vector]

we do a little trolling 😈

[jaunty yoke]

Let's look at the timeline of the seasons
Season 3 had a Spartan "infected" by a Banished AI, which then lead to Infection in Season 4.
Season 5 will bring Firefight, meaning what probably happened is that the AI made contact with the Banished and brought them into the academy. While this happens, we got the first Spartan infected by the Flood in canon lore

So for Season 6, if I'm being optimismic, it will bring something related to the Flood
If I'm being realistic, I have no idea what it will bring

[molten pelican]

you're not real

[safe dawn]

Still a video

[molten pelican]

wdym?

[frail shoal]

i boot it up and then i go to the title screen, i press enter and then it just loads for a bit and then an error window pops up saying "fatal error the ue4 mcc game will crash"

[cedar turret]

By definition it isn’t

[molten pelican]

you could check the integrity of the files on steam

[safe dawn]

Film = video

[molten pelican]

this has happened to me before

[frail shoal]

i did, and it replaced some files but still nothing

[molten pelican]

are you launching it from steam or the taskbar because sometimes for me launching from taskbar gives me that error

[frail shoal]

i do launch from steam

[jaunty yoke]

If the lens of the camera is circular then why are pictures rectangular?

[molten pelican]

ah #1075989764026675210 make a post here, and be patient for a response should get one quickly

[frail shoal]

Although I really hate the decision of Xbox not doing exclusives anymore since everything comes out on PC day 1

[safe dawn]

This is, literally, a skill issue

[jaunty yoke]

What was the last Xbox exclusive to be an actual console exclusive? Quantum Break?

[naive token]

Yeah but like the bridges are really hard for some reason literally nothing else

[final rose]

quantum break launched on pc

[jaunty yoke]

Day 1?

[safe dawn]

This is true, try going under

[final rose]

I think so. Last game to release only on Xbox I think was CrossfireX

[jaunty yoke]

Oof

From Microsoft I think it was Halo 5 Guardians

Duely noted but I think I'm done gotta go through the ghost section now (up the pyramid thing

i will get a cold case of not looking down

Not really, bc h5 had forge on pc

I need an answer from someone who has tried XCloud on both the Xbox app and on browser (PC speaking in both). Is there any significant difference in performance/input lag?

[safe dawn]

From my experience, they both ran the same

I used google when i was running it most of the time, but when i was playing halo infinite on it, it ran pretty well

[naive token]

I go for pistol and plasma pistol

[safe dawn]

Cant say much about other games, but mcc, halo wars (the first one), and infinite ran well

[twilit vector]

So i found my mtn dew fridge i was going to put the halo mtn dew in and umm .... Found out i had mtn dew hot spicy in it

.. when did that mtn dew flavor release

[safe dawn]

Oof?

Idk

[jaunty yoke]

I understand spicy drinks exist... but why?

[twilit vector]

So the can has been in there for about 4 years

[jaunty yoke]

Oof, 4 years eh
Don't even think about it

[twilit vector]

So i got four years worth of mold to clean up ... I might just cut my lose a by a new fridge

Yep the mold is on the internals

[safe dawn]

Welp

Burn it i guess, it'll look cool at the very least

[twilit vector]

I thought i had nothing in the fridge thats why i putted it away

[twilit vector]

Bad idea bad idea

[candid solar]

That reminds me, I need to buy some Cocaine (The legal stuff) energy drink.

[safe dawn]

Always check lol

[safe dawn]

Fun idea

[safe dawn]

The og coca cola was better 😉

[jaunty yoke]

I'm grateful Prime drinks haven't arrived to my country yet

[pulsar cobalt]

You had me in the first half not gonna lie

[candid solar]

It's a real thing. The spicy one's actually really tasty.

[jaunty yoke]

WHY ARE SPICY DRINKS A THING

[twilit vector]

Bad and very illegal in my town ( cops will come and arrest me
My dad already angered the cops to the point they said if they get called to my house again me or him will be leaving in cuffs

[candid solar]

It's basically hot+cherry.

[safe dawn]

I DONT KNOW, WHY ARE WE YELLING?

[twilit vector]

One way to learn your neighbors hate you

[jaunty yoke]

We are yelling because I used to feel bad for killing Grunts

[muted rose]

Sweet spicy and savoury spicy are different

[twilit vector]

Remember the Pepsi cinnamon fire

[muted rose]

Both are yummy though

[safe dawn]

Understandable

[jaunty yoke]

Spicy is a sensation, not a flavor 😭

[muted rose]

Ok, think of it this way

[candid solar]

All I want to do is rag on you for having a terrible palate.

[muted rose]

I eat a I don’t know, enchilada. That would be savoury, right?

[twilit vector]

I never felt bad found it fun when i destoryed there methane tank

[jaunty yoke]

What about the Grunts from Amnesia

[candid solar]

Sweet spicy.

[muted rose]

I was about to bring those up

[jaunty yoke]

Cinammon Altoids

[molten pelican]

amazing

[twilit vector]

I got a box of those in the car

[candid solar]

Well, most spicy drinks take after these.

[jaunty yoke]

Pog

[candid solar]

Except for bloody mary mixed drinks, which I'm honestly not a fan of.

[muted rose]

I much prefer just sugary drinks though

[twilit vector]

I remember being little and my grandma one night just flipped through channels and found a ep that was talking about how altoids are mad

[muted rose]

Soda, but mostly ginger ale and lemonade and fruit punch

Not quite as bad for you but will still rot your teeth

[twilit vector]

Most kids
Got sweets from there grandparents
Me and my sister got altoids

[candid solar]

Your grandparents sound based in candy choice then

[muted rose]

When you first had a candy did your eyes turn into rainbows

[twilit vector]

Sometimes we got old fashion candy

[cosmic hull]

My grandmother always had jars of Kit Kats and cookies

[twilit vector]

I miss them
They had a good selection of candy

[muted rose]

Based grandma. Kit Kats get slept on

[cosmic hull]

Fr

[twilit vector]

Old fashion mints during winter in a clay bowl sitting in the living room b

Grandpa's pc having the bars and grid screen saver

.. i miss those days

[muted rose]

Nostalgia

[twilit vector]

Now im sad

[muted rose]

The ultimate candy

[safe dawn]

Like the screensaver with the lines that move around the screen??

[twilit vector]

Yes that one
It was fun to wacth at night

[muted rose]

A non circle screen saver?

Impossible.

[safe dawn]

It was fun to watch at any time of day

[twilit vector]

I forgot what it was actually called though

It was a 3d pipe

That started as one then would move across the screen

Creating so many more

Windows 95 3d pipe screensaver

What should I do

[polar sparrow]

Restart

[safe dawn]

Explain

[naive token]

I can't get back to the elevator

[safe dawn]

What happened to cause that?

(Excuse the occasional grammar mistake from me, im on a phone)

[naive token]

I jumped down when I think I wasn't supposed to near a light bridge that is flickering

[safe dawn]

Your fine lol, you just have to take a walk back through the level to get up there again

[naive token]

I'm lost 😭

[safe dawn]

You should be able to figure it out im a few minutes lol, your fine

[naive token]

I've been there for 20

[safe dawn]

Check the floor markings, iirc, there are arrows pointing in the direction to go in the hallways

[naive token]

I don't see any arrows

[safe dawn]

Theyre sorta shaped like a trapezoid but styilized

[naive token]

Uh could you find a picture

[safe dawn]

One sec, ill dm a pic to you

[safe dawn]

Quick question, which graphics are you using?

Og or anniversary?

[naive token]

Idk

[safe dawn]

Uhh, how detailed are your surroundings?

[safe dawn]

Better question, does the game look like halo reach?

[naive token]

Around halo 5 I think

[safe dawn]

Then your using anniversary graphics

I sent you a dm

[livid oyster]

THE HALO BAIT IS SO GOOD TODAY

this totally feels like something that could have been in the game

[pallid island]

I hope the halo series gets cancelled

[livid oyster]

That could be mendicant bias

[molten pelican]

its probably harmless

[livid oyster]

I’m not sure

[steady jolt]

I really hope it doesn't

[smoky token]

why :(

[obsidian wyvern]

🙏

[pallid island]

Is terrible

[smoky token]

why :(

[molten pelican]

yeah I hate halo

[pallid island]

It goes against everything stablished and it could just been a book adaption into a series

[smoky token]

you misspelled one

[steady jolt]

You could also just ignore it and let the people who do like it, enjoy it

[smoky token]

y’all ever had a vanilla bean frappe with dark caramel shots

Theres legit no salvation for the Halo Series

[molten pelican]

should I ask skyfi

no wait, I got this, ms paint

[molten pelican]

absolutely !

[smoky token]

there’s no salvation for the half life series…. they got no games….

[obsidian wyvern]

cant be redeemed 😔

you guys got a cutscene fixed the other day chill

not a cutscene, just an animation that didnt play right lol

[candid solar]

You're terrible

[pallid island]

How they could.......... WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

[candid solar]

I do gotta say

There's absolutely no reason that the outrider harness had to go this hard

[pallid island]

Ok but that certain scene was necessary to the plot

?

[candid solar]

You could easily be saying half a dozen of the scenes in the show. Half of them are going to end in me calling you a prude.

[bold sparrow]

Is that a camera on his face or lenses. I cant tell.

[candid solar]

hint, hint; Think Tracker MJOLNIR.

[bold sparrow]

Makes sense.

[pallid island]

Guys?

Arbiter from halo just sent me a friend request on Steam

[tall sand]

Accept it

[pallid island]

I dont like alien men.............

[candid solar]

It's the real arbiter. Accept it and give him your credit card number, three digits on the back, and expiration date.

[jaunty yoke]

Don't accept it

[bold sparrow]

Dont tell that to Olympia Vale, or she'll turn you inside out with her bare hands.

[tall sand]

Reply with "okay, elite preferred species"

[pallid island]

BUT WHY I DONT LIKE THEM

I..... Hate them.......... A bit.........

[jaunty yoke]

I am 97% sure there was a time in Halo 5 where you could swap weapons with the Arbiter in Battle of Sunaion and use the Prophet's Bane, then it was patched

[bold sparrow]

That sounds familiar.

[pallid island]

I had to accept his request, his style was certinaly................. appealing....................

[tall sand]

But was it good, i only ever played thru 5 once

[jaunty yoke]

Yes

The 7 flaming knives easter egg on the first mission was amazing

[granite sky]

im just a sadly disappointed watcher 😭

[tall sand]

Actually idk why i asked if it was good
Its an energy sword

[jaunty yoke]

I remember the Prophet's Bane in Halo 5's beta

It didn't turn you invisible and it was bright af

[bold sparrow]

Everyone thought it was the baseline Energy Sword and people got sooooo mad

[jaunty yoke]

Lol

[obsidian wyvern]

tbf it doesnt look good lol

[tall sand]

I mean

Its the energy sword so it should be really good

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah

Halo 5 probably has the best energy sword due to the extreme range you can get when you aim, not counting Halo 2's sword which has unlimited ammo in multiplayer and it's broken

[molten pelican]

there we go

ty ms paint my beloved

[smoky token]

i remember there being some sort of bug involving various ledges

[cedar turret]

I bet it was a paper wasp.

[floral pollen]

Same but that's a tomorrow problem, bc its still November here

[naive token]

The library is hard af

[pliant hatch]

shoot and run

[naive token]

I am

[pliant hatch]

good, if you know the glitches it's a lot easier

[naive token]

Well I don't

Also are there any checkpoints

[pliant hatch]

yes, but they may not pop if you go too fast.

best to watch a speedrun vid which will show best way to do certain areas.

[naive token]

I don't think I can really replicate anything they do ngl

Should I use ar or pistol

[pliant hatch]

not everything, but there are some areas where they'll show you where to stand so you don't get flood spawning in during the waiting spots.

I use the AR and shotgun

or just a beating it vid like halo completionist for example which is a good tutorial.

[smoky token]

shotgun, shotgun, and more shotgun

this is the only level where the pistol is arguably not the most viable option

AR and shotgun is ++

[pliant hatch]

and lots of nades

[smoky token]

true

[naive token]

Is nade jumping onto the start blocks still possible

[smoky token]

yes

[naive token]

Isn't the library the best

[pliant hatch]

are you doing legendary?

[naive token]

No

[pliant hatch]

oh, well that's good

[naive token]

I'm on normal

Trying to nade skip something

[pliant hatch]

oh, on the doors that slide open?

[naive token]

No

At the start to skip first flood encounter

[pliant hatch]

ah, that one. getting the timing is probly the hardest part.

[naive token]

Tru

So close

Not getting enough air

[pliant hatch]

are you also walking towards the monitor so it triggers him?

[naive token]

No

I'm just trying to nade up the blocks

But fair point

[pliant hatch]

oh, you want to do that first or else it won't progress. Also, a second time in the other area after you do the jump.

[naive token]

Fury

I might just go to the next game

Yeah I'm done with ce for a bit

[still barn]

Is the Xbox servers down

[steady jolt]

Status site says they're up

[final rose]

I liked more the story from Halo 4, Halo 4 Spartan Ops and Halo 5: Guardians than the story on Halo Wars 2 and Halo Infinite. The first one is humanity claiming the Mantle and claiming its place on the galaxy. The second is just fighting the Banished, it's just like the Human-Covenant War all over again

[tired wraith]

I just had a dream that halo infinite had assassinations and ground pound

Best thing ever

[final rose]

Spartan Charge would also be good to be on Infinite

[tired wraith]

De verdad

[livid oyster]

I would say it’s quite a bit different than simply another human-covenant war. Banished are far more destructive

A lot of Spartans survived that war, because the covenant weren’t willing to damage the forerunner tech/artifacts that they were around

Banished don’t give two yoinks about that

[molten pelican]

this guy is peak content

oh hes already gotten 1.2😂

[fickle drift]

Happy Friday folks

☕️

[candid solar]

4/Spartan Ops/5 were more about humanity learning of the Mantle more thoroughly, realizing why the Mantle is a bad thing (It's an imperialist piece and effectively a species-based version of the White Man's Burden, which is very, very ew), and then soundly rejecting it as a result; With the Created attempting to take up the Mantle that was meant for humanity, incidentally showing exactly why the Mantle is a bad thing.

I mean, I agree, I think the state of affairs through 4-5 and the universe's state is far more interesting-with the Created's goal being far more unique than the Banished MO, or even most depictions of fictional AI uprisings, despite the bad press the story got.

[fickle drift]

Hello

[final rose]

On Halo CE, 2, 3, Wars, ODST and Reach, humanity was losing because they didn't have many Spartans and because their ships were too weak to fight the Covenant. On 4, Spartan Ops and 5, they had the Spartan IV Program, which helped them make the Spartans more numerous and they had better ships, like the Infinity. On Wars 2 and Infinite they started to lose again

[normal owl]

Are you outside the US? I wonder if region affects accessibility.

[normal owl]

10/10 dream

or should I say...5/5

[final rose]

I dont see nothing wrong with Wars 2 and Infinite but they could have completed the story from 4/Spartan Ops/5 on the games instead of the books and comics

[molten pelican]

christmas plans go

[livid oyster]

I don’t think that would’ve sold well had it had any hint of directly following H5

A lot of people did not like H5’s story

And games are a bit more costly to create than comics and books

[harsh vector]

Yes, i am

[candid solar]

A lot of outrage was frankly because people didn't understand it-admittedly, the presentation didn't help. And not continuing the story (IE, scrapping, not improving) is a pretty lousy way to conclude an arc.

[final rose]

Thats the Halo "fans"

[obsidian wyvern]

it wont work then

not that youre missing out on anything good

[harsh vector]

I know 😭

[final rose]

343 is like a hostage and Halo "fans" are the kidnappers

[candid solar]

... I wouldn't quite go that far.

Fans are passionate but they aren't exactly the best source of information on objective matters.

[livid oyster]

It is, but there’s a cost to everything, and games aren’t cheap to make. They have to go with what will sell

[candid solar]

It's a Halo game-it would sell well regardless.

Infinite's story, despite the tonal shift being a benefit to less invested fans, is largely unsatisfying because of what was done. It effectively does something that has an analogy that I can't use here.

[tight remnant]

Under rug sweeping recuring issue

[candid solar]

More blue in coloration.

And NSFW in reference.

[tight remnant]

the infinite story was getting good then they canceled it too

[candid solar]

Anyways, yes, it did sweep a large and potentially spectacular engagement under the rug in favor of a 'safe', 'classic' option. Sure, that might get someone's attention, but it comes off as disjointed and sloppy, reeking of compromise. I'm not going to say it comes across as condescending, because that would imply the intent was to be malicious, but it's almost close to feeling like it.

[candid solar]

I'm not gonna lie, I'm still actually mad at this.

[tight remnant]

i think one way to make the created story better is for the created to do good work and improve certain things. Say fix alleria

[candid solar]

That was actually the biggest reason I was interested in Infinite's MP.

[analog knot]

You should be allowed to use the euphemism of blue balls in context. Considering you did anyway.

[candid solar]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'd rather have erred on the side of caution and alluded to it than outright saying it.

[candid solar]

A lot of the pushback I get when pointing out that the Created should be more 'murky' in how good or bad they are by doing things such as improve is people pointing out that that's "bad" to do, that an Orwellian society doing acts of good is too divisive in the modern day.

[obsidian wyvern]

the infection cutscene was finished, it just didnt have music. idk why they canned it there

[candid solar]

But adding that sort of moral complexity is extremely important in making a nuanced and effective story beat, which is kind of why it pisses me off that Halo Infinite takes such a 'soft' approach and culls the idea in favor of what feels like a halfhearted attempt at making Cortana 'good' again, when in reality she should've died bitterly, never acknowledging that she had made a mistake.

[normal owl]

I would prefer that, then people can set the cutscene to whatever wacky music they want for hilarious results.

[candid solar]

Considering it's an in-engine cutscene, you already could.

[normal owl]

So many possibilities: Hypnotize by Biggie, for one.

[obsidian wyvern]

its out there

[normal owl]

In the End

[candid solar]

On that last point, that does actually genuinely baffle me. 5 went out of its way to show that for all Cortana's pomp, she is very much Halsey at heart. And if there's one thing I think is out of character for Halsey, it's her breaking down and acknowledging that her mistake was not trusting a specifc someone enough, like she was some sort of ex-girlfriend.

[normal owl]

Normally I would say "Happy Friday" but it is too terrible that it's already December of this year.

[normal owl]

"It starts with one..."

[obsidian wyvern]

rewatching that cutscene, why are agrynas lines always terrible

lol ok what

[normal owl]

I think one of the reasons the small savings of MS Rewards doesn't feel worth the time to me is because it strikes me as homework, and dang if I haven't had enough of that in my life.

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah im too lazy to do it nowadays, even though its like 5 mins max to get everything, i just want to do the stuff i want instead

[normal owl]

Time is money, and it's a resource that we can never stop from decreasing.

There's a cheery thought lol.

[molten pelican]

at least for you humans

[winter flame]

i just stopped doing the bing rewards

[molten pelican]

whats a bing

[winter flame]

a noise

[obsidian wyvern]

battlebit is smthn

[molten pelican]

hahaha

the vc is great

[obsidian wyvern]

i feel like its a bit harder for me to get into because everyones levelled up with better weapons and im here fighting recoil

[molten pelican]

oh yeah once you get momentum its gets easier, the learning curve is quick

[obsidian wyvern]

after about an hour i finally figured out how to change to medic though so its more enjoyable... and then my mouse died. have to get back home to change the batteries

[obsidian wyvern]

ive only played the 32v32 mode so far, are vehicles in the bigger ones

[molten pelican]

yeah I use medic too, I recommend MP7 or AK-15 to start

[obsidian wyvern]

i think i was using the ump, it didnt have too much recoil

[molten pelican]

depends on the gamemode not the size but I would try 64v64 thats where I stay

[obsidian wyvern]

gonna force my irl friends to get it for the weekend, would be better than playing alone

[molten pelican]

yeah playing alone is fun but this game is made for friends

[obsidian wyvern]

and yeah, im surprised by how many people use mics

[molten pelican]

they just updated too

[molten pelican]

yeah me too, its hilarious, the only game I lose my voice in lmao

[winter flame]

what does the orange mean

[obsidian wyvern]

bug

[molten pelican]

it means the end is near

[obsidian wyvern]

also did u see the ranked changes recon

[winter flame]

yah i dont ignore your pings 😄

[obsidian wyvern]

lol

[winter flame]

honestly i aint played enough extraction to really judge it in its current state

feel like i've only had it on recharge

[obsidian wyvern]

have u played any ranked doubles

[winter flame]

nahh brudda only running doubles with u

[obsidian wyvern]

idk if the maps are better with bandit

[winter flame]

is it mostly the same maps

[obsidian wyvern]

i think its all the same

[winter flame]

yikes

[calm fiber]

https://aka.ms/HaloInfinitePlaylists

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah its all the same, welp

[tired wraith]

For real, it was after a nightmare too

[winter flame]

its weird to me ranked arena is so heavily curated yet ranked doubles just seems to be a social mode as far as maps go

[obsidian wyvern]

they need to give it more care lol

theres so many maps out there, idk why chasm is still in rotation

[winter flame]

honestly the game just needs more streets-size maps i think

i really like forbidden dont get me wrong but something about streets is just so chaotic and fun

and they're perfect for doubles as well

[obsidian wyvern]

streets is so intense

[winter flame]

i've just had so many wild plays on that map because of how easy it is to catch a team off guard

maybe at higher levels its not as fun though

[obsidian wyvern]

kinda sad they removed koth from streets, it was a good combination imo

[normal owl]

on Streets, KOTH = King of the 'Hood.

Hi all, I'm currently lodging a ticket due to a 12 man team thinking it's ok to farm in a Heavies CTF match, how do I upload a copy of the game to 343? The skill rating was absurd. My team had 1050 skill rating and the enemy had over 1600 skill rating. My entire team combined for 2 kills. The game only went for around 5 min, however they just sat there with our flag until each of their team had gotten a larger amount of kills for xp boosting.

Not sure if it's worth lodging this or if I'm overreacting but that was probably the least amount of fun I've had in this game to date.

[obsidian wyvern]

i dont think you can report them for being good lol

nvm ignore that message, i see u said ticket

[analog knot]

If players are refusing to end the game - holding the flag and refusing to cap - they can be reported for it.

Will 343 do anything is different. But it is against their rules.

[obsidian wyvern]

how long is the clip?

[umbral skiff]

Will be full match, otherwise just going to upload post game stats

[umbral skiff]

Will be about 5-6 min in length

Now as I said it's not a long time, but they did purposefully ruin the game for everyone else

[obsidian wyvern]

there is this on the right

it doesnt seem to mention an upload limit for that section in particular though im pretty sure it was around 50mb for their old ticket system

[analog knot]

Its still around 50mb. Most likely you wont be able to attach the full vid.

[fickle drift]

i want a needler :D

[umbral skiff]

Ok, I appreciate the help! Do you think the screenshots would be enough or best to upload the match? I have bookmarked the game but don't know how to download it

[obsidian wyvern]

ah yeah its 49mb on the other page

[amber mirage]

You could probably upload to Youtube and link the video in the ticket

[analog knot]

Dont expect to get any feedback.
Its correct to report people but you wont find out if they were actioned (and it seems unlikely they will be).

Anyone want to run some games later tonight?

A beach volleyball sim, it looks like. Novel approach for the studio, but maybe they're going back to their table tennis roots?

Learning from the acclaim that RDR2 received, committing actual grand theft auto will now be more realistic, with complex mini games for opening locked doors, electronically breaking in, etc.

Hundo and Chia brand cars will be easier to boost.

Red Theft Auto Redemption. An instant classic.

Grand Theft Halo

[fickle drift]

[amber mirage]

Still got nothing on Gears of Halo Theft Auto 5

[harsh vector]

im so hyped for that game

[amber mirage]

Hyped? It came out years ago

[harsh vector]

sorry i use internet explorer

[amber mirage]

Sales were exclusive, though.

[fickle drift]

[misty wedge]

anyone experiencing exceedingly long wait times for matches and also long "other players loading" messages today?

[harsh vector]

Always

[misty wedge]

seems particularly bad today

[normal owl]

It happened again! Must be this whole batch! I am the luckiest man alive.

[fallow ether]

Unlucky

[normal owl]

I love strawberry, and I'm the one eating these, so very lucky.

[harsh vector]

just unlucky ig

[misty wedge]

seems to be just squad battle that's doing it

[hasty zinc]

Your RNG is the 🐐

[candid solar]

Probably good for some of you.

[rare cedar]

You’re a day late and a dollar short

#fakehcsfan

[candid solar]

I mean I hate ranked so

[obsidian wyvern]

weak

[hasty zinc]

They might as well remove ranked from my playlist lol

[teal eagle]

Good thing I play halo. They put santa as a playable character in cod

[queen remnant]

That sounds awesome

[teal eagle]

He's buff asf

[amber mirage]

Sounds awesome

Does anyone also have the RDR2 Beecher’s Hope song in the background when building in Forge?

[mystic sparrow]

how do i fix crashing issues? game launches and then at various points in the loading process it just crashes and closes the game

and having like 3-4 attachments on the helm would be real nice

[hasty zinc]

Imagine imagining

[signal musk]

so can i play halo infinite without downloading 10000 images of ranks while loading the game or will my memory be destroyed into oblivion?

[amber mirage]

I can't imagine

[pulsar cobalt]

Imagine 😂

[fickle drift]

Imagine

[molten pelican]

oh thats a good deal

@obsidian wyvern you still have your voice?

[obsidian wyvern]

wht

[molten pelican]

are you not screaming medic at the top of your lungs in battlebit

[obsidian wyvern]

oh no I stopped playing after ab an HR lol

I am the medic anyway

this can go very badly
https://vxtwitter.com/Halo/status/1730684560730436095?t=SNeONYwIQwPxe03schJ4xg&s=19

[molten pelican]

interesting

wait does the CE armor in infinite cost more than actually buying CE

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah lol

[molten pelican]

wtf😭

[bold sparrow]

Interesting.

I bet thats gonna be Firefight.

[molten pelican]

im saying

[molten pelican]

oh it could be

[obsidian wyvern]

it's done because of the GTA announcement

[molten pelican]

wait so the prices are that bad in the store...

[obsidian wyvern]

whether they actually have a trailer is another thing

[molten pelican]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRInjA928jY

this may be completely accurate

[forest stream]

Firefight playlist yet?

[harsh vector]

wjat is this

firefight?

[round laurel]

Probably.

[harsh vector]

i love how this looks exactly like the gta6 trailer thingy

[obsidian wyvern]

that's the joke

[molten pelican]

lmao

[obsidian wyvern]

so I don't actually think they have a trailer unless it's just winter contingency III

[sacred estuary]

Aw cool halo x gta collab

[harsh vector]

halo infinite is basically gta 6….

[jaunty yoke]

Would you like to know the infinite ammo glitch for Halo CE?

[naive token]

Should I do odst or reach first

[molten pelican]

reach

[harsh vector]

reach

[jaunty yoke]

Ehhhh

I think release order is best order

[naive token]

Nah I already know a bit of the lore so for me I'm going more for the experience

[jaunty yoke]

That's good

[molten pelican]

well if you know the lore than yeah release order would probably be smoothest gameplay and graphics wise

[jaunty yoke]

If you already did Halo 3 tho I would recommend that you do ODST first, because if you do Reach first then it will feel weird to go back to a slightly modified version of Halo 3's gameplay to then after that go to Halo 4 and have a gameplay more akin to Reach's

[fallow ether]

The truth and reconciliation in halo ce is so hard on LASO

[frank bronze]

Is the Slipspace engine just a rebuilt Blam engine?

[frank bronze]

Truth and Reconciliation on Legendary itself is hell

[fallow ether]

Only one part is

The part at the beginning of the ship

With all the energy sword elites

[jaunty yoke]

Yup, took me 5 hours

The final stretch where you have to defend Captain Keyes is horrible too because if he dies you die

[fallow ether]

The grunts blowing each other up always makes me laugh

Oh god i didnt think of that

[jaunty yoke]

What I had to do in those first rooms was entering through one of the doors the enemies came out from, hide in the corridors and camp with the Sniper killing everything I could, at some point the Zealot Elites decide to charge at you, to which I had to quickly snipe their shields out and then kill them with the Assault Rifle

[fallow ether]

Did you do the infinite sniper ammo glitch?

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah

Although the infinite ammo glitch proved most useful from The Library onwards

[fallow ether]

Im gonna do the keyes mission skip
