cool
Who is… mister chief..?
A pretty cool guy
check the halo 5 req pack video by 343
God, I love that video.
Interesting
I had it happen my first playthrough of the campaign lol
yep, already tried everything
saw a eurogamer article saying CA's Infinite br mode has reportedly been cancelled.
As long as they're working on Halo: Battlefront, I can rest easy.
Been a while since I played halo how's the game after season 2
green man
Infinite? 10x better.
two words fire fight
Another good one for the Halo memories image folder 
one more
@hasty zinc
also congrats, guessing the morse code was right
thanks rev
Oh come on I gotta play with people on PC now?! UGGGGGGGHHHH.
Also, neat, we got a little ARG goin
the Morse the merrier
if you're from the u.s probably don't have thid
Oh, non-US only?
Interesting.
Yeah I dont have it, I just have the play a PC game, play Jeweled and use the app ones
have you gotten the kill an enemy with every weapon on the banished ship
Theres a Battle Rifle in one of the boxes you need to grab.
think so
It feels like they're making it harder to get points
Was inevitable: points were always an incentive to increase usage. If their internal metrics have hit a desired milestone, then their need to incentivize usage via rewards may have lessened.
NIIIIIICE no way
Weapon set
What's..."taters"?
po-tah-toes
Not on all weapons but one of the OG weapon model bundles
Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew
They stopped doing Game Pass skins and stuff for infinite too.
In the States, they're considering reclassying them no longer as vegetables.
I dont mind that you dont HAVE to play certain games though, Im cool with that change.
wife made Pollo Saltado today so good
Don't think I've heard of that before
True, now that I think about it, I haven't seen any for a while.
Last one we had was the Hex bulldog skin and then just...silence.
one of my favorites: buddy is Peruvian and takes us to his fave place for it.
That’s been what I’ve had the entire time. 😭I am sick of Jeweled.
Jeez, I just saw a lore video that I genuinely laughed at. Apparently, between the two Halo Wars games, there was a Flood outbreak on the SoF, and Jerome, the only Spartan awake at the time, used a dang chair as a weapon xD
so Jerome didn't take the Flood outbreak sitting down...
Indeed he did not xD
it was teased in halo escalation and then featured in halo tales from slipspace
unfortunately there hasn't been a new halo comic in i believe 5 years
I havent really read any of the comics. I’ll need to go and find them
The problem with Spotify Wrapped is that I like my 2023 top songs so much that I'm just listening to them a lot in 2024...which is boosting their metrics in this year's upcoming Spotify Wrapped.
I think my playlists have had identical the tracks the entire time they’ve done it as a member. Bowie? Dean? Yacht Rock? It’s gonna be there.
"You're right, this is a great song!" *repeat it a ton again*
The last two years I have had Missing You by John Waite as my top track. You already know the reason why.
It would be interesting/hilarious to be in bar where the DJ plays a friend's exact Spotify Wrapped top songs in order.
If “Gentle on my Mind” is not on my wrapped, it’s not my wrapped or I’ve been in a coma.
Yeah I dont think Im getting the monthly for Game Pass. One achievement a day for almost a month?
Dont got time for that.
Can probably get teh 500 though...I'll live.
xbox live
Unless you don’t work or have a lot of free time from work, I dunno how they expected people to get an achievement a day. I get they wanna make people try other games but damn.
Yeah at this point it sounds like a low-difficulty but even lower-paying job.
Pretty much.

343pls
(Laughsin college class and 32 hours of work a week to support said college class)
To be fair, Im only missing a thousand points...when I get that in about two days doing everything else I do anyway via Bing and such.
It is unfortunate BUT it will still allow me to continously roll three month game pass subs.
As by my math it takes about 70 days to get one just doing the 500+ points a day via Bing, not including other stuff elsewhere.
I get GP Ultimate for $30 a year so I don’t worry about it now
Where the heck is it 30 a YEAR.
DM’d you.
well, that doesn't sound sketchy at all
Is it normal to get BTB matches where your entire team quits and the enemy team delays the match to farm kills? 💀
Yes
💀
happens
Super lame too as the only thing worth farming is career exp, and that's best done in Firefight.
2v12 felt disgusting, and I would've unironically hoped for them to actually do the objective and not delay the match for 10 mins
let me guess, high power
Power Seeds
anyone else having to wait a long time to load into campaign?
lol
Couldn't even kill because of two Wasps spawncamping lmao
but how do you do live action minecraft
like i cant imagine it at all. it doesnt make sense.
They wear block suits? Or something?
Like the humans are CGI and the world is real. I dunno why they’d waste their time with this tho
Mario set up a trend
Mario was at least all CGI
which is really impressive considering he was racing in the 60s and 70s and they were probably animating him on real-to-real computers or maybe punch cards.
Well that’s wild.
Where've these been, anyways?
Is xbox developer direct suppose to be like a mini E3 conference?
Can someone boost some achievements with me on MCC?
Can someone here please explain this to me. I am finished with the "Winter Contingency III" pass. And I obviously do not own it as a premium. But now I want to switch to any of the season 1 - 4 BP's that I own so I can get the extra challenge slot but there is no switch button in the switcher for previous battle passes that I own as premium. Why!?
once you finish, it automatically puts u on reckoning
if you had the premium version of s5
wait is it season 4 or 5 rn
But there are no switch buttons and it's still on the Winter Contingency III.
5* woah
5, but that's not the issue here
yeah idk, its automatically put me back to season 5 after finishing the last 2 events. did that with friends too so idk why yours isnt
And why should I spend money on a pass that every item is free and there are no credits in between tiers. Just for 1 bonus item?
Consumerism.

wouldve been sick if I actually grappled out of there. was too slow to grab it though
so cold outside
Yeah, it’s reduction season for the fellas
It will automatically switch you to the latest available paid battle pass that you're entitled to. In the switcher tab, if there is no 'equip' or 'upgrade to premium' button under the passes you want to progress, then you should probably submit a bug report.
g a b e
How do you do banshee tricks with mkb?
I honestly feel that anyone who says there are too many sweats in unranked don’t play ranked a whole lot
I dont play the game alot too so that’s right
For me, I can do pretty well in unranked matches without entirely focusing on the game. In ranked, even when I’m laser focused, can be damn frustrating

How’s halo?
Pretty great
Mcc and infinite are both good games, both have improved a lot since their launches

Nevermind then
What’s the lowest for a idiot
They probably mean career rank, not competitive rank
I meant rank in halo infinite like bronze, silver, gold, etc.
Or their called tiers
My rank is diamond sergeant, I imagine I’ll make it to the middle of onyx by the time I’m finished playing infinite
Have yet to max out my rank in any halo, I’ve gotten really close in all of them, but I either burnout or move on to the next halo game
TRUE
Hii!
hello!
Unrank
What is that?
It’s unranked
Like me, never played rank in Infinite
I played rank when it first came out, got gold 6 and never touched the game again
Ha, very nice.
Silver Colonel.
I would've been like mid plat if ranks were in the game since launch. I don't think I'll ever get Hero.
I played a scratch off, won $10, and never again
What do you need to do to get Hero again?
... a lot of time.
Aaaahh, yea.
I can see how some of us struggle with that...
I though rank was out during launch
Career ranks.
O
I played rank in 5, and realized how much different it plays than social.
I dont have plans to button down and focus on improving my gameplay. Soooo.... didnt bother with Infinite.
If you average 1,000 points per game it’ll take approximately 9,000 games
why my teammates be selling
I’ve come across a hero rank player who had over 28,000 games. Which is just crazy to me
The next highest was like 13,000 and I thought that was absurd
Person enjoys their Halo
Some people have disabilities or things...and just game alot. Not shocked anymore when I see huge numbers.
Im gonna come out and say it: the sidekick needs an accuracy nerf and im surprised it hasn’t happened sooner
So, where do we redeem codes for Internet? I'm getting an internal server error on Waypoint
If it's a Halo Waypoint code, go here:
https://www.halowaypoint.com/redeem
If it's a Microsoft 5x5 code, go here:
https://xbox.com/redeem
5 by 5 lol
The codes are fine, all is well 😄
Test
How come the grunt ai in forge seem to have the mangler in the weapons
Halo
grunts can use manglers
hope this helps
Oh ok thanks wasn't sure that was possible
As it was intended, yes, it should be nerfed to meet that purpose.
But holy pineapples, it is my fav as is.
Please dont nerf it.
it’s definitely overshadowed by the DMR and BR
i don’t really think it needs much considering how little damage it does compared to it’s peers
Considering most guns in the game push you for spam fire. It should get that as well @restive plover . Its honestly oppressive depending on the input device as well
I prefer the sidekick over the gunfighter
hi
CoDs better they said, but then you gotta remember who they still remember.
lol should I watch the halo tv show with my mom
sure
Sure reaching Hero rank is quite the goal
But hear me out
It doesn't take near as long compared to reaching level 152 in Halo 5
Or nearly as long as max rank in reach
What game mode helps most with getting higher ranks in infinite?
Firefight or husky raid
Husky raid has the potential to be the most exp per match, but firefight is probably the easiest way to guarantee at least 3,000 per match
Firefight usually gets you ~5000 per game.
Husky can get you more but only if you manage to not get farmed in return.
hope legendary firefight returns today, never got to try it
not being able to see your monitor. There is a joke there.
You could have landed it Dozen 😔
nah, I couldn't see the runway
My dad hid it somewhere
Eh, it's not that bad short of leaving me wondering why he's just using that stance on otherwise unaltered armor.
It is funny to me that he's a gold 3, though.
I wonder if he plays on his own branded console.
If you are good at the game? Infection and BTB. Infection you can get insanely high kill games and on BtB kills have a 1.8x multiplier (so 180xp per kill instead of 100)
BtB doesn’t give 180 xp a kill?
It does, assuming that we are talking about career rank and not the battlepass
Yeah, the career rank. But I just played a match today and know well that I did not get 180 a kill
You do
I can’t remember my score. Does that xp pop like usual on a kill?
No that's not how it works
I got 24 kills and am pretty sure I did not hit 3000 score
I average over 5400 xp a game on btb
Man, I gotta go look for that game now
And as for infection, depending on what map, I can get an insane amount of xp because I've had 100+ kill games on infection
Thing is not many people play infection, so finding games sometimes is a little difficult
If I could post screenshot I would, but I got 24 kills, 3 assists and got 2450 score
And infection I could see some matches getting quite outlandish exp
why
Way Too Many AFK Players Trying To Boost In Firefight
Not even sure how I got 2450 as a final score when I had nothing that would minus my points
is mcc down?
I hope not
I just played a match to see the exp screen and I see now 🥴
Had me confused for a bit
Though I do think it is 80% of the final score rather than kill which is cool. I got 1,000 score and 1800xp in total
I'm probably in the minority for this but I wish Infinite still had the same style of music as Halo 5. Like if they brought back classic themes BUT IN THAT STYLE, I think it would've been great. The Trials is already the best version of the Halo theme imo.
5's music was all pretty good i think
people tend to write off that game for the dull story but it did a lot right
get ur aim back in firefight 😄
I didn't like the story but the gameplay was fun. I'd take it again over the Paramount show tho.
I really don't like all the constant retcons either so I'm hoping the eventual Halo 7 doesn't do the same and just drop everything off screen.
Infinite's story was fun but the lack of biome diversity makes me not wanna go back to it since I cleared legendary within the first month.
its not so much a retcon, its just not developing on the narrative
people forgive 2's story for lacking depth because 3 built on it
That's valid but I also don't like Forerunners being Space Voldemorts either
yeah i know what you mean
in my head canon i just sort of pretend that stuff happened in a lot more grounded scifi way
For as much as I don't like 5 tho, I wish it was on Steam cause I'm trying to get someone into the games so we can like co-op them together and it'd be weird to just skip 5 since they don't have an Xbox.
i find it hard to be invested when the diadact could have killed chief in an instant and ended humanity but didn't cause some ego reason
"i wanna flex on this petty harmless human, ooooops now my entire plan has fallen apart"
I figure with how good PCs are the now, Halo 5 can run without having everything a few feet away animate at less frames. Would make the experience a bit better imo.
He's basically like every other movie villain who won't kill the main character cause they're the main character.
You gotta give a good reason for it and not just have it be "just because"
yah, as much as i can appreciate some of the writing in 4, i dont really think the overall plot was that much better then 5's
I was still a teen when 4 came out so I didn't think much of it but going back as an adult I'm like "this doesn't make any sense"
I mean like I enjoy 4's story more but that's probably mostly nostalgia if I'm being honest
When I was younger I also preferred the art style change cause I thought "more was better" but looking at a lot of it now, they look... cluttered? And like anime suits.
the Lasky-Chief-Cortana dynamic is well done i think
So rn the Reach Spartan look is my favourite and has been my favourite since like... 2017 I think.
ah my Reach spartan was always my favourite i think
The moment they added Reach to MCC and then to PC it was over cause it's the one I replay the most. Even tho I love the Flood I like campaigns where I can play as my own custom character.
I was hoping that Infinite would make it so like players who join someone else's campaign play their own Spartans but I don't think they did? Idk. I haven't played Infinite in forever now.
nah, i think they really just wanted to get co-op working well gameplay wise
and then focus on MP
I Was Expecting Halo Infinite With A Load Of Campaign Releases (Live Service) Since They Pretty Much Had Multiplayer Down From The Other Halo Games But That Was So Far From It.
Yeah disappointing
They finally showed a different biome right before the credits so I assumed we'd get story updates with new locations then they were like "nope"
I mean I already don't like the multiplayer much like did they ever add a purple and teal armor coating?
That's usually my go to colours in the other games. That or orange/teal, purple/black.
I'll riot if they remove my snow fire
the map became boring to look at after the first flight, it looks really good now
I have yet to play on live fire with the snow
Yes
hlo
Tied to my discord aswell :)
your profile is one of those that bug for me and dont let me see the links
but yeah really cool work, i only clocked when i remembered your name said aspiring artist too
yh, i removed that. dont see myself much of an artist haha
but thanks man, means alot <3
i think the razorback should get like blades in the front so its 1 shot touch to enemies in fire fight ? -is it a good idea or not?
Same
The Scott Pilgrim/Johnny Silverhand art is rad, I’m impressed with your page!
thanks haha, i like that one too. i have another idea with johnny i might make
I gave you a follow, as I like this style of art. 
Somehow it’s not the variant in firefight I don’t think?
I’ve only got the regular version in firefight and I ain’t been playing much else
Heyo
It’s not 😦
classic 343
dyk if they completely replaced live fire for snow fire in matchmaking for now
outside of firefight
❤️
Finally played on this map for the first time yesterday. Saw the standard variant as well mixed in when playing, so it's not an entire swap over.
That odst thing really popped off :)
yeah thats what i saw today
ah, thanks
wait if theres another halo game comming so basically the 1 thousand dollar stuff i got was a waste?
We've no idea what the next Halo game will be, and if they'll transfer cosmetics. But generally, yes, digital cosmetic microtransactions don't carry over to newer games. Whether that's a 'waste' or not is up to you, you bought the cosmetics for Infinite, and that's what you got.
I really do hope they carry this art style over and keep the cosmetics
This is what 343 have said about the future of Halo lately [timestapmed]. They're looking at future projects, but nothing solid to confirm or talk about yet and won't be for a while
https://youtu.be/Vrq9TNDan08?t=2667
I swear this chat has some janitors
🤨
so hyped for Palworld on friday
RE2 just came to gamepass today so gonna try that as soon as I'm free
says it's only about 9hours on average so shouldn't take me too long
RE2 incentivies multiple playthroughs, but it's an excellent game.
The bit before the but is part of what makes it good.
If it's a one and done game, it better be less than $10.
I'm not sure if you're serious.
The quality of the game makes it worth full price.
Not how much game time you get out of it.
If you say so.
what, like an NG+ thing or smthn
This is also why I wait for discount bin sales on single player games though. So many are one and done. Once it's over, no point playing again festivities.
You can play different characters through different scenarios with some differences.
I was satisfied with a single playthrough though, it really is great from start to finish.
oh yeah I read something about you being able to play as Claire iirc
I just finished the latest season of “What If” and I was blown away by the animation in that series, on top of the ||link between the live action and animated MCU shows :O||
need to get around to watching that
I recommend it
I was nonplussed.
It was just OK. ||Not what I was hoping for is mainly the problem I have with it. Was hoping it wouldn't be a continuation of season 1. Really didn't think they'd have a main character for an anthology series. Should have had new faces throughout with a new final team. Strange Supreme and Captain Carter had their moments in season 1 and didn't need to be back.||
on the last episode of cowboy bebop and then I'll start echo first
Netflix version or anime?
anime
it was boring as hell, the last 2 episodes have been pretty good and I expect this final one to be too, but I wouldn't recommend this show to anyone
Unfortunate
hi
Reminds me, something tells me you won't like Eva
Might be one of the "Product of it's time" type of anime. You had to be there.
oh no
and I've been looking forward to this
Have you watched other "older" anime other than cowboy bebop?
You say boring, I say it's a part of media that takes you back to slower and simpler times when a million different things weren't fighting for your attention and it was easier to sit back and relax to a slow show
I don't think so
Could be part of it then. Older stuff tends to be a bit slower.
You might like it, so it's worth trying out, but it's pretty slow.
I need my tiktok clips there
that makes sense tbh, after being on that aot high I've been craving something as packed lol
I thought Eva was just "fine" until the conclusion.
Eva is more than just 1 series though right
every video needs to have subway surfers gameplay running alongside it
Yeah. It's got two series/continuities.
So true
One is the original TV series, and the other is a series of movies.
Anime tiktok version, part 43 of evangelion
Anytime my partner tries to show me a tiktok that's like this I turn away. Can't deal with it.
yeah how am i supposed to watch anything without subway surfers gameplay next to it
Sludge videos are abhorent to the senses.
Do you read manga?
nope
need to get a list when I start
I'll probably come to you for that lol
Watch Mob Psycho
u see my brother started watching that too and it messed up my whole crunchyroll watch list so I'm waiting for him to finish it
Ghost in the Shell is pretty poggers too
I'm keeping my hopes down but i for sure hope Mark IV is the core for season 6
I'm keeping my hopes down, but I for sure hope the core for season 6 is no cores. Update to mannequins untethered from core restrictions.
you know there's 2 new podiums right that came with season 5
good how are you
I'm shocked 343 haven't added hyabusa to the store to make a quick buck yet
they most likely will soon
They most likely won't
Hayabusa would need to be licensed from Team Ninja/Koei Tecmo.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not an armor original to Halo.
oh yeah i completely forgot about licencing rights, my bad
It would be cool to see it again, but I don't see that happening.
Sure do. It's why my hopes are at rock bottom.
Well, shoulders are outright stated to be on the docket.
Expecting complete freedom right away though, eh.
they have to have some sort of license though since they use it for HCS intro
I assume there's no rule against displaying something that's been in a Halo game already, it's just making new versions that's a problem.
Otherwise it wouldn't be in MCC.
maybe
I guess I dont' know enough about how that works to make an accurate statement either way
It is a bit odd to me that we never got a Gears or Killer Instinct themed item in Infinite 2 years on, though.
But yet we have something from Siege.
?
I would hope a crossover from other Xbox games would be a lot more elaborate than what we got with the Siege crossover.
I mean, nothing is less than an emblem.
Killer Instinct and Gears 5 both got crossover promos.
yeah but that was ages ago
*pregnant. (If you get the reference, you're good people)
well i guess im a bad person
lol nah, you probably have to be older or watched a lot of tv land.
It should be a no brainer to add the Doomslayer suit or the Fallout power armor in Halo
they should add the mark 15 iron man suit to halo
Uhhhhhh
and the origanal robocop armor
Uhhhhhh
and the metallic jason x suit
LMAO
How about we start asking for crossovers with franchises they actually can get the license to
or i can ask if they can have a crossover with Jurassic park franchise
Wh- why exactly?
Are you expecting Spartans to fight dinosaurs?
We already have a game for that, it's called Exoprimal
just felt like it
Flew too close to the sun with the warthog coating already on that one. lol
redownloading halo mcc still got to finish halo 1
Or you can just play it on the cloud without downloading anything
i payed for the whole game im using the whole game
Cloud gaming is not ideal for many people.
yep
They said Stalker 2 was gonna come out in Q1 of 2024
SEPTEMBER IS Q3
Cloud gaming is not ideal for multiplayer FPS games.
some people dont even have 4g they are still stuck on 3g
It's better for offline games
If you don't have 100mb of internet like me then yeah it ain't for you
Yeah, tried Halo 5 through gamepass cloud and it was terrible. It's not about down/up, it's a whole swath of factors.
The other day I took my grandparents to the doctor and I somehow sold the receptionist into buying Gamepass Ultimate for Xcloud
Cause he wanted to play Flight Simulator but it isn't available on the Switch
Extra low settings in small map areas.
Like the Wii version of Call of Duty World at War.
I looked for sims on the Switch, I found a couple, they both looked terrible.
Look at Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch, it's hideous
Yeah. If it isn't a nintendo game, I can't imagine buying it on switch.
And the company was very shady by not showcasing any trailer or gameplay on it, they waited for every Switch player to get the disappointing surprise by themselves
If it's all you have to game on, I guess you play what you can. Good for kids that way.
Yeah that's what he (the receptionist) asked me
"I have a switch and an office laptop, do you know how I could play stuff like Forza or Flight Sim?"
Office laptop'll do. lol But boy. Imagine Forza on XCloud.
The laptop has nothing to do with the cloud performance, it's all on the internet
It's about proximity to the cloud data center, if you're on fiber, etc. etc. etc. There's a lot to it, and if you're not in a major city, it's probably not going to be an acceptable play experience to play anything that requires reflexes and minimal latency.
Mexico City got me covered
Something slow, turn based, by all means, but anything else for someone living in the wilds? Nah.
I guess that's more common in America
Here in Mexico no one lives isolated from the cities
Here in Mexico... City, right?
No, the country as a whole
it's pretty good
bro what
Yeah, unless you live in a farm, and farms don't even have internet at all
i live at the funny farm
Has it had bad harvests recently? 
Do you guys like firefight: king of the hill?
I like to play 2 Firefight KOTH games a day
By the third one I already feel bored
I see
It is fine to play with friends a bunch
Yesterday I played legendary customs with some friends from Jalisco I haven't seen in a while
Can't wait for the next one
The other day I also got really upset because in an FF game one person left and the other one was walking around looking at nothing the whole time, so we were basically just 2 people actually playing
I must have reported that guy like 10 times
More score for you
Sometimes I feel okay having useless people on my team so I get all the credit 
If you can't solo firefight, are you even a gamer?
When you can do it all by yourself sure
When you really need teamwork because otherwise the enemies are gonna kill you and the 30-second respawn system is ruining everything, not so much
I solo firefight'd to test out all the maps we played in customs, I only managed to finish some by myself
You weren't gaming hard enough.
Ironically we didn't pass the maps I wasn't able to do alone either
same lol
The worst was then all the lives had been consumed and this other guy was AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP, and he stayed there until the match ended
We would've been seven people, but our seventh tried to run the game on a GTX 960m
xcloud 
I appreciate that games don't leave Xcloud when they leave Game Pass
But a more important feature that should be added is to also let me stream games that I own and are not on Game Pass
XCloud could work if you tossed them on a turret maybe?
idek if he has Game Pass
I played Battlefield 2042 on XCloud without problems, it's really not bad
For you
And my laptop doesn't even have the Ethernet port, it was all WiFi
a ton of people don't even scratch 50mbps, it's not gonna be anything good for the majority of people who need it
Crazy to think there is still over 20% of people in the US without internet
Hey everyone i only have 20 minutes left. Does the ultimate challenge work in Fireflight? Kill with Ar and...
No it doesn't
not in a custom
Cause certain Twitter mutuals kept pestering me to make it.
But I just didn't wanna do it...
Well that's one weekend I won't get back. Was it worth it? Idunfugginknow.
@obsidian wyvern hello deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeēnf
Nevermind more maps or weapons
What Halo Infinite could use more than anything is new vehicles
mantis
Especially the mantis
I'd buy that for a dollar!
It's quite variable. I tried Forza on xCloud and it was absolutely unplayable. Heavy pixelization, stuttering, serious delay, etc.
I tried Nvidia's cloud gaming version for Portal 2 and it was playable. It still had noticeable input latency but for a SP puzzler I could totally deal with it.
What’s the weekly
Get 25 kills with the Assault Rifle, Battle Rifle, Sidekick, or Frag Grenades.
not anymore
Same one twice in a row
one sec
Oh
So the old S1 HCS coatings are back but i own one of them and i can buy it again but without the kit
very odd
wait really
it's a backdrop
the challenge is called at their six but I can't find what that challenge actually is
does that mean the one I own is finally available to use outside of kits
Firefight: Legendary King of the Hill rotated into #HaloInfinite matchmaking today! Unlike other Firefight playlists, Legendary features Assault Rifle + Sidekick starts, limited equipment charges, and no auto-revives.
Map & mode combos for all playlists: http://aka.ms/HaloInfinitePlaylists
💖 33 🔁 3
This might be crazy and maybe not very practical, but...
Instead of having 3 separate Firefight playlists, how about combining all the variations into one?
Yes it would make things difficult for the meantime if you want to play Heroic and get Legendary or something, but that might be fixed when the match composer gets added, and it would leave more space in the playlists UI to add more modes in rotation
Personally i think more UI reworks are coming in S6
uh no thanks. just get rid of the halo 3 playlist and keep this permanent
I don't see why that's still a thing when the maps are already in the other playlists
This would already make Legendary FF way more painful to play than it already is.
yeah
I mean I like it for the br starts but that's legit it. no other reason. they just need to give us br socials man
I want to see firefight without king of the hill, grifball, and weapons from past games.
Yeah like
Fiesta and Husky Raid already got you guessing if you're gonna get the standard or Super variations anyway
Really hoping we get a match composer for next season
late because youtube took forever to process it (and not giving the video in 1080 would defeat my point) but it did work really well for me on about 200mbps
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35QD8Hgpc0k
Same
And I'm hoping they either fix or add variations of post-launch equipment
Because everything that was added later and/or is not in campaign (Repulsor, Bandit, Reapair field) only show up in normal Fiesta and normal Husky Raid since they don't have an upgraded campaign variant and the Super variant of those gamemodes only feature campaign variants of things
I ran across them in one of my tac slayer warmups a little bit ago.
That's excellent.
Even with the double compression of the initial streaming plus Youtube, it looks clean.
Yeah
Report them rather than publicly calling them out.
How about Desert Bus gamemode 
The same as Husky Raid, but in a map that is much longer, and both teams are given Warthogs
if you forge it, it will exist.
Wh- what did you do to get muted for a year...
I said lasagna too many times
Honestly I don't know what you expected then
Welcome back.
no mor ehalo battle royale yayy
I hate how you can’t switch battle passes without having to buy them
I just want to get the free items man 😢
On the other hand, it's good how they don't expire.
I mean, we basically played a bait test for it, Last Spartan Standing.
There has to be an incentive to justify that they don't expire
Which I'm still waiting for to come back in rotation btw
As long as it comes back seperate from needing to be played to complete an event pass. lol
The worst type of slog.
desert bus was like one of the first gamemodes created when CGB launched
Dang I should have been looking for it instead of the many Infection recreations
omg i remember you LMAO
Yeah 😂
yeah i was there lol
That was a short 34 weeks
Yeah i don't think the S1 HCS coatings were meant to release alot of people seem to be having issues with it haha
RvB is canon to itself
so yes
it's not canon to Halo though
i bet it is
It's not
It's canon to the halo story the same way the show is canon to its own story and the game is canon to its own story
On it's own
told yall non belivers
...
speaking of rvb
😄
Is that really how they spell it?
i think i have like 3 more solo achievements left in this game
Shiela looks so wrong to me
i just got off watching seasons 1 to 13 part 2
That's how I've always seen it spelled, and waht i assumed was correct
im a dedicated fan
I don't wonder because I know it isn't
the achievement is spelled wrong
oh lol
womp womp
It's wrong on purpose as a reference to the fans who used to call Bravo "barvo"
yes i am too lazy to share the actual tweet
ok now i realise that was dumb because it shared a location very close to home
When you place a teleporter in Forge of Halo 5 and change the condition to Bravo it also says "barvo"
https://vxtwitter.com/Unyshek/status/1747336335999037928?t=IBArFcjvT6JfMnPTY1Ncgw&s=19 ( @pulsar cobalt sorry second ping)
@XLR8_LIVE @Halo @HCS It looks like these went live a little early. They'll be coming down shortly. The plan is still to "unkit" these HCS bundles in the near future. When that happens, folks who bought it before will have their items updated without needing to make additional purchase. Apologies for…
💖 3
yall aint sensitive nine yr olds right?
good
That's intentional, it's a joke relating to a previous community manager - Bravo
Yes... I know
lol
oh, sorry never seen the comment a few messages up
I remember when fans made the barvo helmet, it was an awesome moment
was gone by the time I jumped back
i didnt know until a few months ago that he was a community manager for halo
Anyone see the old hcs bundles return in the store?
i bought three but the unlock isnt working properly
Say goodbye! It was posted like 5 messages above yours
I am thinking of a potential feature for a future Halo game
That if you damage a Spartan without shields, their armor suffers damage in real time, like if you snipe them with a headshot the visor cracks or something like that
Yeah cheers rev
hat ius unfortunate
There are those who say this day would never come...
especially considering i just spent all my credits on them
You can be confident that issues with the store will get addressed instantly and publicly
Good for everyone who gets excited for that
Me personally I play Halo to kill and have fun, not to show off a shiny armor
turns out only 11/20 of the achievements i have left are coop, im chilling for a few days
I'm also missing the coop achievements, and I'm losing my sanity trying to get someone willing to capture all FOB's in a single session
this sounds tough though
dont you have to keep an enemy down there when you go activate it
Nah
or is it always on till you deactivate it i cant remember
Usually, but at that point of the mission you get Berserker Brutes without weapons that charge at you, so you only need to stay close to the laser and they're gonna die most times
I wonder if they will refund the people that brought the not intended bundle haha
You don't need an enemy to be down there when it activates, you just have to make an enemy die to the laser at any point while it is active
yeah ive just seen those brutes run into the laser lol
I had a harder time getting the achievement for killing a Grunt kicked by a Brute while it's midair because Brutes kick Grunts at you randomly, rarely and there is no guaranteed way of making them do it
i got lucky with that one
think i shot a rocket at myself or smthn whilst a brute chucked a grunt so i got it
Sometimes colors are just colors.
I mean, it's not really a serious question. It just happens to have very similar colors in a very similar arrangement.
Reddish-purple to purple to blue.
I've seen the flags, but at this point there's so many I have zero clue what the vast majority means.
Based
Nice vehicle. I want
Walk into my laser, say the Spartan to the Brute
Spartan Laser, if you will
Does anyone know what’s coming season 6 of infinite? Like this is a general question, like every other season I had a general idea or guess but I don’t know what might be coming this time
no
theres only like a week till this event finishes. im surprised we havent heard anything
anyone want to join up to do halo 3 ranked slayer on mcc
Hold up, waaaay too early yet. Keep your puny armor on!
cant find a game on my own would appreciate some players
only ranked 14 as can never find a game, want to build it up
I figured we'd hear something by the end of today tbh.
I’m hoping we get the Halo Wars Armor core
Hi.
Those Spartans from Halo wars look so cool
We don't know what's coming yet.
Personal speculation, but I think we will get cross core shoulders, VIP mode, and maybe a match composer.
guess no players wanting to play then
Use the LFG channels.
If you're looking for other Spartans to join you in battle, check out our LFGs:
#lfg-competitive – For ranked/competitive matchmaking
#lfg-social – For social/casual matchmaking
#lfg-campaign - For campaign co-op
#lfg-forge - For map/mode building and testing
#lfg-customs - For custom games
#lfg-other – For firefight, spartan ops, etc
#lfg-español – Para jugadores hispanohablantes en cualquier categoría de juego

Don't forget to check out #lfg-and-voice-chat to learn about the !lfg bot, how to use it, and how to create your own voice channels.
Few people from MCC come to this discord. Fewer ranked players. Better off visiting some Twitch streams and asking there or teaming up with some of the people you do find games with.
In the evenings EST a 14 in TS should be able to find games. Iffy during the day though.
thanks my friend
Mark 4 armor is the coolest in my opinion
marine appreciation too
best design
easily
We most likely hear something on the 22-23 😂

How'd you get that live footage of Burner?
What?
the gif
Holding c and hitting enter doesn't center text
Is there a certain place in the game it happens more often than others? Usually I just look up a youtube video
I think you forgot to reply to someone or something.
Yea but then I just decided not to care
Mad lad.
can someone send me the link for the halo infinite drip store pls
not game store stuff
yeah thx
mood
I loaded in halo infinite yesterday and it was snowing in the menu it looked so nice
But I miss the old screen with the ring and the halo theme
I wish there was an option to put that on
i wish the DMR was in campaign
I wish halo infinite played the halo theme with the pretty background 😭
They should add the new weapons to the FOBs in the campaign
yes please!
That's literally the entire point of the EVO's existence.
In immediate and dire need of bios update help. If anyone has any idea, please dm me, very much appreciated
#1075989764026675210 maybe
What does Xbowing mean in Halo Wars 2?
It’s prob no quicker in that text chat than in here anyway I literally have the usb stick in the motherboard so I’m hoping to catch someone’s eye can’t find anything online
also if you go to the disboard website, just type in pc help or smthn and go through the servers there. more likely to get help there
hi
I really can’t stand Infinite on PC with a controller. There’s no aim assist whatsoever
I’m new to PC as a whole so I can’t play on MnK yet
There is aim assist. Be careful to ensure your mouse isn't sending inputs from vibrations on your desk or whatever.
I turn my mouse upside down when playing.
I’ve heard some people saying this will be Halo Infinite’s final year whether such is true remains to be heard.
they have but seems to be a mistake, don't buy yet
Thank you @obsidian wyvern @smoky token

Is the Cabal Attachment for the Bandit Rifle coming back?
nobody but 343 knows if/when something will come back in the shop
that place is awful
is it a discord for omelet recipes?
It's for building devices that get warm enough to cook them
i built a high end (to me) pc
i use it to surf the web and play an open source solitaire game
not me literally playing solitaire right now
i do play ms solitaire on my phone
hmm, tbh with the right apps and such i probably could run the xp solitaire on my phone through WINE on an x86 emulator

using the halo deck
nice
Why do some games decide that the best form of graphics is not being able to see anything? I don't care if you're trying for mystery or horror I want to be able to see where I'm going. And if you pump up the gamma it has a 50/50 of distorting things.
I wish it had a colorblind mode though
If halo was a good series it would be a western (jk)
tjis is why CEA is superior to original ce
that plus floor arrows
Holy ish this helped me a lot. Thank you
is mcc cross save? my missions arent transferring from my xbox
It should be but idk. When I started playing on PC I remember I had to redo all of my emblems and customization but I can’t remember with the missions
Specs now
Tell me
Did the net code get added to the game? My games have been horrible as of late shots not hitting and lag.
which net code are you referring to?
me tooo
I love reach
reach-best campagin and sandbox,, infinite-best multiplayer
It’s my top 2 below halo 3
Both Halo 3 and Infinite multiplayers are simultaneously #1 for me
Yeah that’s valid
Some days I feel it more with 3 and others it’s with Infinite, both are great
But 4 on the other hand
One thing I would love to see a comeback for is Reach’s Invasion
but i mean if we compared them both of today, infinite easy. but halo 3 is only good because of its time
there really wasnt anything like it in its time, so thats why it stood out
but like if it was a game today it wouldnt be that good
Never seen more valid halo fans
Fair, I honestly just love 3 purely out of its gameplay as how I play it today on MCC, I wasn’t there during the golden era so I don’t really have that “because of its time” thing with me, I’m only 18 lol
I’m trying to get sunrise to work
I can’t drive yet
I discovered it at a thrift store
finally beat all campaign missions on mcc. now time to do it all over again on legendary
im only 16 but ive been a die hard halo fan for as long as i remember
I’m -3 that
Nice, I'm 15 and got my start back in 2014
Saaame, Halo 2 was my first ever game I played back when I was 5
great time to be playing halo
Mine was mcc
Got my start in early 2011 I believe
I started 2019
Nice! So you've got nearly 5 years of experience
Im as old as reach
That's insane to think about
real
I started with Halo 2 when I was 5 and now I’m 18, it’s definitely been 10+ years of experience with the franchise
I see
I was born right inbetween the release of Halo 3 and ODST 🤣
15
huh, i mean, like halo is a little violent... like i would like my kids to paly, but i wouldnt let them start till like they were 5
My brothers are 23 and 24
Funny how I was never really scared of the flood when I played Halo 2’s campaign at that age
I shot em the same way I did with the covenant lol
yea i was rlly scared of the flood at i was like 12 at the time
343 guilty spark for me
i had like nightmares from it ngl
Fair fair
Yeah, when I was 5 I played the mission Halo 3 Cortana, had nightmares.
the flood is super creepy
They are scary for sure, terrifying if you know your Halo flood lore
Or cortana yeah
the library from CE still has that PTSD
TRUE
i got that encyclopedia so
I need it
or floodgate
Yeah
Yeah... I don't talk about that one.
Dead Spartans in infinite if I was 4 which I’m not
lol
Had an awful dream about that mission, cause I got lost and spent hours trying to complete it on legendary (at the age of 5) and it became ingrained in my memory for years... all the nightmares... 😨
It didn’t scare me because I played it last year
had to have my dad step in and help me out to beat it
what kind do you have
its acc worth it
Chicken ramen and bbq chicken
chicken ramen
Yoooo, sounds fire
tho for me i could acc use a nice pizza pocket and a rootbeer
microwave the ramen
Also don’t use popcorn setting
That’s how kat died
Oni covered it up
And said it was a needle rifle
Yeah, most popcorn companies typically don't recommend the popcorn setting because it tends to be innaccurate based on how it "measures" the popcorn, I can't properly explain it but there are videos as to why it works for some microwaves and not others
I’m out of chicken
Nice! It's clear you've got a good microwave
Yep
yep, dont mean to flex tho
Hello everyone !!
Hi
Helloos
Hi
or lfg
Warthunder is pain
like ranked
Halo gaming
Any advice on completing the par score for Two Betrayals? We have been trying (co-op) and have had the most difficult time with it. This mission has been the hardest to get par score so far for us.
Hello guys, does anyone also have the ghost riider achievement broken? I already did it 3 times and it doesn't work
any way i can force mcc to sync across platforms? just beat all the campaigns and i want my pc to show that progress
i am gold rank anyone wants to play with me matchmaking is so bad:8
Wild that people has to hack in slayer ahahahhahah
I thought I was real cool cuz I got out of the map on outskirts in H2,
And then I found an energy sword in the ground and thought "man that's sick as, found a forgotten asset"
But then I got the Rex Sword achievement and was immediately heartbroken

Hell yah I can't wait. Sweet. That's awesome
lookin for a squad with mics pve or pvp
THERES A SPIDER
We are under the same thing down here in the Columbus area. It’s -8 at the moment. 🥶
What does it mean when you check someone's Career and it's all 0's? Even though they get kills
chargeeeee pew AGH HOT
Real question. Can too much discord legit affect your health
Firefight doesn’t count kills. Otherwise it would be they blocked their stats.
That's a thing?
Yes.
Yep. You can block within your settings.
😂
Some people don’t want bothered. Others don’t want their game history public. Lots of different reasons.
I'm struggling mentally to be a decent person
Happy Master Chief Petty Officer John, Spartan 1/17 Day 😄
What gun is this: Chargeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee PEW AGH HOT
firefight has made finishing the weekly challenges a snap!
Battle rifle
And almost every covenant weapon
lol jk
Plasma pistol
Just finished Catch-22
feels bad, man
Alexa, post the gif of Spongebob sitting contemplatively over a cup of coffee in a diner while it rains
im impressed with the description tbh
I couldn't decide on whether to do the normal one or the black and white version to match the mood
It isn't even 8AM and I've managed to spend $300
@rare cedar Have you seen the funko pops with Grogu and Peli and Grogu with the Anzellan's?
Lemme just say y'all cool.. y'know like idk I feel better here because it's halo fans
Like home
We’re here for you my friend 
I haven’t, link it?
Don't worry.. Spartans never die just MIA.

TBF, Halo 2 is 2 decades old this year and is one of the most exhaustively explored games in history. You'd be hard pressed to find anything that hasn't already been found.
Hello
Please 343 read my halo infinite post it's battle pass amour and event it's something very special
I’m looking for forgers to help me build maps anyone can help please let me know
Thank you
No
is it friday yet?? I want to play Palworld
It is not. 😭
Use Turnip Boy to tide you over until Palworld
Bro... Commas, please use them.
I've not heard many positive things from a tester of this game who posted their impressions and that's sad because I really think this game has promise
No embed 😦
We don't need to engage
Care not what the youtubers have to say.
Halo Infinite has been out for 2 years and I've been having a lot of fun without spending a single dollar on the multiplayer
Curious where my snow is, haven't seen anything since the dusting yesterday
They're gone, and replying would have been a waste.
It's never worth engaging
any way for 4 player firefight in halo wars 2 ?
if you would like we have #1076327824924872755 which is better suited for this type of stuff
thx
ok, im deleting my post then
Nope
Plasma rifle what's it called, reticle!
Ahh yes, the CE one
HELLO EVERYONE I HAVE RETURNED 🌚 🌞
ooooooh dear
What do you mean 'ooooooh dear'?
Also, when is Mjolnir Gen 2 coming to Halo Infinite???
I am sick of all this trash armour
We need to return to the OGs
We NEED Seeker NOW!
The only think I'm seeking on Halo Infinite is the SEEKER ARMOUR!!!
Seeker one of the best
Will there ever be double XP weekends again
ꁝꏂ꒒꒒ꄲ ꁝ꒤ꂵꋬꋊꇙ
Please don’t do that
We don’t allow Zalgo text here, don’t use other fonts either please
Re-downloaded Halo 5 cause why not, my eyes hurt with the fixed FoV it’s definitely been a while
Yo
it's 2024/1/17 u stinky
I prefer 17/2024/1
Honestly, the FOV is the biggest reason by far I don't play 5. I love everything about it except that.
Yeah, it's super painful. Going from Infinite with a great amount of settings to 5 is just... Icky.
Like, half the reason I want a 5 port is so I can stop suffering with the FOV of a vertical shoebox.
I feel like I'm playing the damn game on a vertical iphone.
Hope the FOV doesn't req the experience for you.
I’d probably adapt to it for a bit then I stop playing Halo 5 again, it’ll be like a 2 week Minecraft phase
took like 15 brutes dying to it till it finally popped
OSHA was slacking
Imagine if we had the Repulser in the campaign would’ve made it a piece of cake
wonder why they didnt add it to the campaign
in one of the first inside infinite blogs, they mentioned being able to repulse grunts off the ring
I assume they ran out of controller space
was tryna find that blog and ended up on the day the infinite mp trailer released. good times
yes pls
We're going going
back back
Thank you for making me go back to that time so I could remember how good I was eating leading up to that day!

bottom right looks really good

Prefect users
Beef teriyaki from the little Japanese place my buddy and his family operate. He tinkers with their sauces himself, it's amazing.
Could you send us a digital copy by any chance?
Unrelated, but does the next season launch immediately after the operation?
Happy 117 day!
we dk yet
really hoping so
Is there a suggestion channel?
cool
Anyone still have parents here
