[winter flame]

with the ability to remap them whichever way you want

[obsidian wyvern]

why would you post this without cleaning them

[winter flame]

how can this camera see dust my eyes cant see

[obsidian wyvern]

LMAO nah I get it

[winter flame]

bro they are not dusty i use them every day

[wheat ridge]

good luck

[obsidian wyvern]

my camera picks up dust at .5 for some reason

[winter flame]

actually the xbox one is pretty dusty lol

i just use it for the mic jack when im playing kbm

[pulsar cobalt]

your camera did you dirty

[jade walrus]

Finish the fight sir

[obsidian wyvern]

recon I think you should download Titanfall 2 rn

[jade walrus]

They’re the same picture

[winter flame]

i have it on pc but xbox nahhh

[obsidian wyvern]

smh

[winter flame]

the sticks are better on the series controller ngl

[obsidian wyvern]

all that talk about playing with me

backed out the mw2 1v1 and now backing out of this 😤

[winter flame]

😏

i always flake ngl

[shrewd pulsar]

im having so much trouble downloading Halo 2 MCC

I download 20 gigs just to download a 7 gig update only to find myself dowloading ANOTHER 20 gigs

[obsidian wyvern]

i would delete that msg

[keen nacelle]

they do look pretty dusty ngl

[pulsar cobalt]

https://tenor.com/view/how-do-we-tell-him-mr-krabs-spongebob-meme-spongebob-meme-gif-24063814

[shrewd pulsar]

can’t even close laptop cuz it’ll reset the download

i dont think this is normal

[keen nacelle]

lol yea

once you get into the collection you have to download the content for the games you want to play

it's normal for it dw

[shrewd pulsar]

no like im waiting for 47 gigs total for halo 2 alone

not counting the collection download

[keen nacelle]

it was pretty heavy when i downloaded it too

[shrewd pulsar]

yknow what i should probably just leave it alone…..

[obsidian wyvern]

downloading off the xbox app/ms store?

[shrewd pulsar]

steam

[obsidian wyvern]

its probably what salty said

[keen nacelle]

just a heavy game is all + when you get mcc off of steam you get a few dlcs too iirc

[shrewd pulsar]

i heard that halo 2 was big but when I saw 1% out of 20 gigs for the second time i had to make sure my puter aint tweaking

[keen nacelle]

i spent like 25 minutes downloading everything and ended up skipping 4 because i really wanted to play a reach campaign lol

[shrewd pulsar]

yeah i’ll just let the download cook then….

i got pretty slow internet 20 gigs is like 2 hours here

[keen nacelle]

ouchh

[shrewd pulsar]

i aint waiting allat when its 12 am where im at now

[fickle drift]

H2's pretty sizeable because of the Anniversary content.

[keen nacelle]

I mean on the bright side it still downloads when you're in a campaign and you should be able to play reach already

so you could play while you wait? it's slower though

[shrewd pulsar]

yeah reach is already downloaded so theres rthat

and atleast Halo 3 and ODST arent as big

[keen nacelle]

felt that way when i was downloading cs2

and then my pc crashed so no cs2 xd

[shrewd pulsar]

was so excited to play halo 2 with a friend but the wait is so long because the download experience was just eugh

[keen nacelle]

there's always tomorrow

[shrewd pulsar]

hopefully…

[jade walrus]

Apparently there’s only a 40 score difference between dismond tier and onyx tier with each grade

Diamond: 600
Onyx: 640

[floral pollen]

can y'all que Fiesta rq lol
Firefight keeps booting me out of matchmaking, and I can't find a Fiesta match

nvm, I found one actually

[obsidian wyvern]

this map always has some sort of problem on it

its only ever this map that sends my ping from 8 to 200-2k

2 other days same map

[floral pollen]

My internet keeps being horrible for some reason after yesterday
I got a match on like 200+ ping the entire game, when I should be maxing out around 80 or 90

[peak flume]

Lets have a crazy fun drunk Sunday afternoon!!!!!

[winter flame]

what makes no sense to me is 170ms games feeling better then 100ms ones

like some East US server has major hit reg issues or something

[floral pollen]

60-80 I'm generally find with shot reg, 100-120 is 50/50 whether its good for reg or not, and 250+ takes like 5 seconds to reg, or just doesn't

[forest aspen]

[bronze bronze]

I'm literally master cheeks

[jovial heart]

okay

[bronze bronze]

Whats with everybody in here being lame having like literally zero personality 😭

I'm sure some people are cool but idk most of y'all lame af💀

[obsidian wyvern]

I laughed ngl

[bronze bronze]

Thanks I appreciate that

[wise stag]

You did say this

[bronze bronze]

Yeaaaaa I say that

Nobody be matching my energy in this server

Everybody serious

[obsidian wyvern]

I laughed ngl x2

[granite sky]

I'm dead 💀 frfrfr frfrfrfr

[vague halo]

hello

[hexed geyser]

who uses the dpad in PS1 Games & Halo CE?

am i the only one

[vocal oyster]

What do you use the d-pad for? My left joystick gave out clicking it in too much

[hexed geyser]

to move

[floral pollen]

I've never used the D-pad for movement in my life

[vocal oyster]

trying to understand HOW or what kind of movement you use it for

[floral pollen]

it just seems weird to me (unless I'm doing an old Nintendo game, where there's no sticks on the controller)

[hexed geyser]

like walking forward & Backward & Strafing Left & right in halo 1

[floral pollen]

I do MnK for pretty much every game, but if I did do controller, left stick just feels way better for movement imo

[hexed geyser]

but isnt WASD Basically Dpad

[floral pollen]

Basically, I just prefer left stick on controller

[hexed geyser]

ok

[floral pollen]

also is anyone else not able to find good matches today?
I've found two, but can't find another one after my game crashed just now, and its been like 5 mins of searching a bunch of different modes

[hexed geyser]

i flip flop between Dpad & LS

which game

[floral pollen]

Infinite

I'm queuing both Fiestas, both Huskies, Team Snipes, Tac Slayer, and Rock 'n' Repulse, and still can't find a match in any of them

[lean ether]

I have come back to infinite after almost a year. Haven’t played since infection. I realised that they have stopped giving credits during Battle Pass completion. So we can’t earn back our credits and need to spend money for every season??

[hexed geyser]

😦 is halo a ea game

[floral pollen]

every pass is entirely free now, so its not really necessary, unless you want the premium item, which isn't great in most of them (unles you're doing them after the new one's out)

all the credits were replaced with Spartan Points in newer passes, which you can use to get old items from the Exchange

[lean ether]

So I have to play if I haven’t played an old season. Only the latest season is free. Is that right??

[echo estuary]

Hello! I have just bought the Halo MCC which was so low priced on steam that I was surprised. I have only played the campaign on infinite on my brother’s xbox before but now I am looking forward to playing from the start of the story CE 😊 Happy to join the community here on discord. I am in your care 🙏

[bronze bronze]

nah

[steady jolt]

[floral pollen]

yes
Same as with the older BPs, you have to buy them after they "expire" and only the current one is free

[floral pollen]

Glad to have you!

[echo estuary]

[echo estuary]

Thank you 😊

[lean ether]

Ok. That’s really bad. We were promised that we could switch to any season we wanted at any time.😭

[hexed geyser]

i bought the mcc twice ( first on pc 3 yrs ago 2nd a couple of days ago on xbox

[floral pollen]

I don't remember them saying that
It was more of a thing that "events" (Operations) will never go away, so you can go back to them and complete them later if you miss out while its active

[lean ether]

Why?? Isn’t it supposed to be cross-platform license??

[hexed geyser]

no

[floral pollen]

Np, I'm always down to help if you ever need anything

[lean ether]

During the launch they did say it. When they had 100 tier seasons. Operations is a new concept. I wasn’t even aware it changed

[hexed geyser]

its not but i thought it was

[lean ether]

Did you buy on Steam or Xbox store??

[hexed geyser]

steam

[lean ether]

Maybe that’s why your PC license isn’t applicable have you tried your Xbox license on PC using the Xbox app?? Maybe that is cross-platform

[hexed geyser]

lemme go check

[lean ether]

My Xbox One X licenses were carried over to Series X and Vice versa

[obsidian wyvern]

it's not a play anywhere title

it'll carry over between your Xboxes but if you buy it on there, it won't be available on the ms store on pc. and it never works that way with steam either

[cedar turret]

yeah, but they don't carry over into real life.

Got that license to kill with the goldeneye port, but it doesn't apply in real life either. People should make that clear before you use it.

[severe locust]

Nothing will load for me in infinite

[safe dawn]

Xbox or pc?

[severe locust]

My Spartans barely showing up

It's starting to load in slowly now

[safe dawn]

Either your wifi is bad, you have a mid pc, or you need to restart the game

[severe locust]

Got in a match

Doesn't take this long usually

[night socket]

Yea

[severe locust]

How did my team lose a game of gruntpocalypes😭😭

[manic elm]

The same way how the covenant almost lost the grunt rebellion

[graceful inlet]

Good Night Spartans!
(And Our Marines. 🫂)

[frosty siren]

Mu cosuian is doing a book report on a halo book

EPIAPH

She regrets it because it's a boring book.

[peak flume]

I like murder mystery books

[hasty zinc]

Headphone Warning ⚠️

[frosty siren]

That is more than just headphone warning!

[grand kestrel]

are the halo infinite campaign good?

[urban bronze]

wish I saw this before I pressed play.

[obsidian wyvern]

my advice is buy gamepass and try it

if you haven't paid for GP before, it's like £1 for 2 weeks, see if u like it

[pliant hatch]

needs more biplane footage

[hasty zinc]

There was only one 😦

My ears are still ringing

[candid solar]

Hearpro or nah

[hasty zinc]

What

[pliant hatch]

cheetos

[hasty zinc]

We didn't have them for the first 5 mins after engine startup

Then they started passing them out

[peak flume]

Time to make dinner! Air fried zuccini and summer squash with onions and smashed garlic. Then marinated porkchops on the grill

[pliant hatch]

I think almost everyone will lose hearing if you're around plane engines long enough even with double hearing protection.

[peak flume]

pew pew pew

[fickle drift]

former crew chief here, this is 100 percent a fact.

[hasty zinc]

that was without a doubt the loudest noise I've ever heard

[fickle drift]

try hearing a b2 bomber doing trt 😂

feel that ish in yo bones

[fickle drift]

badass

[pulsar cobalt]

I wish the shoulder placement on infinite was better

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[smoky token]

sexy

[thorny briar]

GREAT MY HALO DISC AND CONTROLLER BROKE IN THE SAME DAY

WAY TO GO MICROSOFT

[pulsar cobalt]

That's more on you and not Microsoft

[peak flume]

exactly

[shy carbon]

[cedar turret]

Microsoft kicked my puppy

[thorny briar]

I had a cataplectic fit and dropped my controller while playing halo infinite, therefore it’s their fault

[cedar turret]

https://tenor.com/view/abell46s-reface-deepfake-muñeco-pinocho-gif-21206936

[thorny briar]

Totally suing rn

[delicate hearth]

Sounds like what a spy Microsoft employee would say...

[forest lagoon]

Honestly, the response Aegis gave you is the answer to the question

"what? What'd you say???"

[hexed geyser]

got the Green Xbox Controller now

[obsidian wyvern]

nice

Thx bro!

[hexed geyser]

Can I get one

[hexed geyser]

is it Just me or does the rumble feel like Switch rumble on My Seires S pad

im playing infinite & the Rumble feels more HD

[limber gazelle]

Attempting to learn halo lore cuz I’ve never touched the game even though I had an Xbox at one point

[winter flame]

Xbox always had trigger rumble

[hexed geyser]

ever since the og?

[hollow hamlet]

There's a ton to learn, but if you don't own an Xbox/Steam then I'd imagine the Wiki is your best bet.

[hexed geyser]

the last halo game i need to get to complete the collection is infinite's campaign

[sturdy fjord]

Wassuup bro

[modern chasm]

Hey guys, I was wondering if I could round up about 3 guys please? I'm making a video for a buddy of mine it's his birthday soon the reason I ask is because my extra controller is complete junk, and I'd like to get some cool shots, if anyone would like to help me DM me

[limber gazelle]

Guys didn’t bungee make the original cods

I mean halos please don’t crucify me

[hexed geyser]

yes

Bungie is Like Rare when they left to MS

[limber gazelle]

What games have they made recently

Or nothing new has come out the works

[tawdry iris]

Nothing really, there’s a new DLC for destiny 2 that they made. And they are making another anthem game

[hexed geyser]

bungie doesnt make halo anymore

also are they redoing marathon

[tawdry iris]

Rare is still working on games though

[limber gazelle]

Ohhh yeaahhh I forgot they made destiny

[tawdry iris]

No it’s a new marathon game

[hexed geyser]

oh ok

[limber gazelle]

I like destiny but I also have a soul (and play war thunder) so I don’t play it all the time

My soul belongs to the snail bro

[tawdry iris]

Nobody that plays that game has a soul my friend

[limber gazelle]

Didnt get that far in only beat the witch queen

Then didn’t play much after or get any dlc

[tawdry iris]

I meant warthunder too lol

[limber gazelle]

My soul belongs to the snail especially since I don’t got premium

[tawdry iris]

Nobody wins with that game

[limber gazelle]

Please help me this is a cry for help

[tawdry iris]

Rest in peace

[limber gazelle]

Put me out of my misery bro

I also started dabbling in siege and started playing more cs2

[tawdry iris]

I can’t, my soul too belongs to the snail

Mate

[steady jolt]

Let's keep it clean please

[tawdry iris]

Crazy response

[limber gazelle]

Got it

[tawdry iris]

Lmao

[limber gazelle]

Ain’t gaijan Russian

[rare cedar]

It’s so humid here omg

[exotic bramble]

Halo recon my beloved

[tawdry iris]

Yup

[exotic bramble]

(I died to a grunt)

[limber gazelle]

Russian bias makes sense

Guys I have a far reaching theory hear me out now

[steady jolt]

🤨

[limber gazelle]

The snail hires those people who leak classified government files so they can gain more information on such things for future conflicts

[tawdry iris]

Sure…

[limber gazelle]

It’s an idea bro

[tawdry iris]

It is definitely an idea

[limber gazelle]

Ain’t spartan 1s like basically not human that’s why they can’t be infected by the flood

[steady jolt]

Uh, no

[tawdry iris]

Nah it’s that they were too heavily augmented or something

[limber gazelle]

Again I know nothing of the game and im going based off information given to me by people

[hexed geyser]

im playing Fire fight on infinite rn & all i here is Reinforcements 1000 times

[limber gazelle]

Yeah they were heavily augmented to the point where very little if any flesh at all remained

[tawdry iris]

No they are still human

[limber gazelle]

I was misinformed

[tawdry iris]

There’s a character in the first three games that’s a Spartan 1

[steady jolt]

Halopedia is a good resource if you want to learn https://www.halopedia.org/

[tawdry iris]

Yeah lol

[limber gazelle]

@warped raft liar

[tawdry iris]

But there’s loads of lore in halo, so nobody can blame you for getting it wrong lol

Tbf I don’t think I have it 100%

[limber gazelle]

In the eventuality I buy the halo ultimate edition whatever it’s called complete edition or something which halo do I start from in terms of best to worse not in terms of lore

[tawdry iris]

Halo reach is a good place to start

It’s more modern in its controls and its fine to start with in terms of where you start the story

[limber gazelle]

Ah

[steady jolt]

Best and worst are subjective. You're better playing in release order, that way the gameplay shift isn't as jarring

[tawdry iris]

That’s also true

[limber gazelle]

I also heard that the remake of halo 1 if there is one too come im not too informed on the topic will be released on PlayStation as well

[hexed geyser]

it might not

[tawdry iris]

Those are just leaks, we don’t really know

[steady jolt]

Nothing like that has been announced

Or hinted at

[tawdry iris]

^

[limber gazelle]

Idk man I again this is what I’ve been informed on I’m not sure

[hexed geyser]

its the Master cheif collection

[limber gazelle]

Thank you for the correction

[tawdry iris]

Out of random curiosity, does anyone here still play HW2 from time to time?

Cause I love that game to bits, shame it’s not in steam

[limber gazelle]

Yall fw helldivers?

[smoky token]

Helldivers was at least partially inspired by Halo’s Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, more commonly known as ODSTs

Or by their nickname, the Helljumpers

[limber gazelle]

Thought it was inspired by that movie about fascism

Starship troopers whatever it was

[smoky token]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-delta-halo-installation-halo-ring-deploy-gif-26482646

[smoky token]

that was half the inspiration

afaik Halo invented (or at least popularized) the concept of shock troopers that drop from pods straight into a battlefield

[limber gazelle]

It sucks yall don’t got helldivers yet

If ever at all Sony most likely won’t allow the release of it onto Xbox

Game is fun though if you got a pc it’s worth the money

[bold sparrow]

They refined it I would say.

[tawdry iris]

Idk, I think it’s a little pointless to compare the two, since each are so heavily different in everything other than dropping from orbit. And both games do the concept of dropping from orbit incredibly

[limber gazelle]

Space fascism crushing bugs and robots saving children killing your teammates and uhh idk what halo is about

Red and blue people fight each other and aliens who have the power to turn dirt into glass somehow

[tawdry iris]

Halo’s about saving humanity from religious extremist aliens

[limber gazelle]

I do know halo lore actually I watched red vs blue

[forest lagoon]

its about friendship

[limber gazelle]

Best tv show ever produced

[tawdry iris]

Red vs blue was very fun to watch

[limber gazelle]

Church was the funniest character bro and the guy who shot him

[tawdry iris]

Caboose?

[limber gazelle]

Caboose now I remember his name and then we got doc and cheif and i forgot he rest of the squad

Then we got tex

[tawdry iris]

Grif, sarge, lopez, wash, Carolina

[limber gazelle]

The orange and red guys I forgot and the teal guy

[tawdry iris]

Simmons too

[limber gazelle]

Then Lopez turns out to be a robot

[forest lagoon]

#1247301799174738083 message
this is what halo is about

[limber gazelle]

And halo 1 or 3 is kill a robot who wants to end multiverse or something

I think I forgot idk

[hollow void]

Green robot killing aliens

[tawdry iris]

Stop before 343 takes notes

[limber gazelle]

Nah all of you are wrong it’s about giving the light blue guy who got shot by a tank a physical body

[smoky token]

helldivers fans which premium bond should I get

[limber gazelle]

The one where you get the armor

[smoky token]

how specific

[limber gazelle]

The super citizen

[livid oyster]

Don't pick the polar one over any of the others

[tawdry iris]

The one with the most liberty?

[limber gazelle]

Because then you get. A title which means your better than everybody

[livid oyster]

Viper looks cool

[limber gazelle]

Because capitalistic Uber facism is the best

[hollow void]

Why lol

[limber gazelle]

The facism is the bad part I like capatalism

[livid oyster]

The weapons kind of suck

[limber gazelle]

You get a fire shotgun with the super citizen and a perk that shortens Helldiver revive times

[hollow void]

UEG be the one doing Uber fascism in the outer colonies

[candid solar]

Look at this goober, getting the bonds for the guns.

I do it for the drip and the drip alone.

[limber gazelle]

Super earth is based off starship troopers which is basically facism

[limber gazelle]

Super citizen cape goes hard bro I’m not gonna lie

[livid oyster]

It's all about the guns baby

[hollow void]

Isee

[candid solar]

What's funny is that it really, really isn't.

[tawdry iris]

There’s some cool overlaps though

[hollow void]

It's weird when the buff arm skin users use a female voice for it lol

[limber gazelle]

Idk about the star ship troopers but ik the helldivers is kinda fascistic in a lot of senses

[tawdry iris]

Between the game and starship troopers I mean

[hexed geyser]

i could Imagine if Helldivers came to xbox an ODST crossover bundle would be a thing

[limber gazelle]

Never happening even tho Sony would make mid much money off it they are kinda douches about it

[tawdry iris]

It would be beautiful

[hollow void]

Stop spreading your vile propaganda against super earth or I will court martial you

[candid solar]

Starship Troopers' government (In the universe as intended) is weird in that it's basically the hyperidealized version of a service-based Governmental service-based Democracy, that has some trappings of Fascism, but isn't genuinely Fascist in the sense that people know the term.

[limber gazelle]

I never said it’s a bad thing Mr democracy officer I love my managed democracy

[hexed geyser]

ik its not happening im saying if it were to happen

[livid oyster]

Viper will have you looking like a bad a 80s movie star, most notably Dutch

[candid solar]

The movies were based off a guy who didn't even actually read the book but believed the main group was truly evil style Fascist, but the universe the movie was based off of weirdly wasn't.

[limber gazelle]

Guys what if instead of saving the children and instead we saved the mine stratagem and instead of arrowhead donating to a child hospital they donated to Lockheed Martin or Raytheon

We should’ve gotten him to invest in the wonderful military industrial complex

[hollow void]

You have twitter chuds sympathising the bugs saying how the humans in starship troopers are mean and bad

[tawdry iris]

Nah, invest in BAE systems

[limber gazelle]

Nah bro I want a free b2

[candid solar]

Morality is relative, but the bugs are pretty much just as evil in every sense of the word.

[limber gazelle]

Imagine being Ina. B2 bro you can literally cause a world war at the flip of a switch (provided your given the armament for it)

[limber gazelle]

I hate bugs and robots

[hollow void]

I hate the brute species

Humanity should hold the mantle of responsibility and rule the galaxy as the precursors intended

[hexed geyser]

i hope mom gets me the Xbox for my visits to home

[limber gazelle]

Hating a certain group is okay if it’s bugs and robots

[limber gazelle]

Ain’t the precursors the forerunners

[hollow void]

No

[limber gazelle]

What are they

[hollow void]

Aliens

[livid oyster]

Some kind of fish frog

[forest lagoon]

Nice to see Sunday chat being the usual Sunday chat

[limber gazelle]

Wait who even created the flood

[tawdry iris]

A demigod species

[limber gazelle]

How so

Didn’t the forerunners create it to fight the covenant

[tawdry iris]

The flood are a deformed and corrupted version of the precursors

[limber gazelle]

Or have I been given false information

[forest lagoon]

You would know if you spent more Sundays here lol

[hollow void]

Dude the covenant worship the forerunners

[tawdry iris]

Who told you this lmao?

[limber gazelle]

A certain person who doesn’t wanna be named and got mad at me in DMs

[hollow void]

Forerunners so advanced they turned humanity into an ooga booga species

[hexed geyser]

i cant wait for the 8 y/o kid to come here to play some Smash Bros 'N' Halo

[candid solar]

The Precursors didn't intend that at all, lmao

At least, not in the way you're describing

[hexed geyser]

i mean my house

[limber gazelle]

Guys master cheif is the guy from Fortnite

[hexed geyser]

no he's not that type of kid

[limber gazelle]

I love rage baiting

[tawdry iris]

We can tell lol

[candid solar]

You aren't very good at it.

I advise a career change.

[limber gazelle]

It works better on mentally unsound people on instagram

So I’ll find a different career here this one off joke failed

[tawdry iris]

🧍

[tawdry iris]

Lmao

[limber gazelle]

I also watched the halo fall of reach movie so ik a little bit about lore

[hollow void]

Master Chief should become leader of the UNSC

[limber gazelle]

Heard there was a book 6 years after watching it don’t plan on reading it

[livid oyster]

Why not a career in spreading managed democracy

[tawdry iris]

It kinda contradicts some stuff from other halo media

[limber gazelle]

I already do

[hollow void]

Career in subjugating outer colonies

[limber gazelle]

Can’t wait to see the illuminates for the first time

[tawdry iris]

Hard to lead it when he ain’t there half the time

[limber gazelle]

Space slavery is fun guys

[hollow void]

The terran empire in star trek is so based

[limber gazelle]

They weren’t made in gods image so they gotta go (I ain’t even Christian it’s just fun to say)

[candid solar]

That's like electing a reality TV host for President. It's a dumb idea and they have no business doing that job because they aren't qualified for it.

... Wait a second...

[tawdry iris]

Mate

[limber gazelle]

I heard the tv show was absolutely abbysmal something about master cheif and a covenant spy

[forest lagoon]

I advise you to keep that out of here

[tawdry iris]

Chief isn’t relatable to me anymore

[hollow void]

But if Jun can be head of an entire Spartan Program so can Chief

[livid oyster]

Might be dumb, but it sure is funny

[candid solar]

He isn't. He's a recruiter.

[limber gazelle]

I also heard it wasn’t cannon though

[tawdry iris]

That’s different

[forest lagoon]

Different timeline different canon

[limber gazelle]

Excuse my lack of proper grammar as my autocorrect continues to decide to be a pain in my rear end and falsely correct words and sentences that were already correct

[hollow void]

Yeah it's not canon because Master Chief doesn't have a girlfriend

[forest lagoon]

But you probably know all of this anyway and aren't actually trying to learn halo so

[limber gazelle]

I lowkey do because of the flood uhh spartan thingy

[hexed geyser]

no Jun is The main Guitarist of Crush 4- oh sorry wrong jun

[limber gazelle]

I’m just bringing things I heard relating to halo whether canon or not canon

[tawdry iris]

Nah it’s a month of the year???

[candid solar]

Musa, a former would've been Spartan II if he wasn't crippled by augs, headed the Spartan IV program; And he did it because he spent the war as a major officer who informed policy and strategic direction, which made him qualified to run the Spartan IV program as an oversight position.

Inb4 Kurt, Kurt didn't run the III program at the very top level either-He ran the training, but everything else was run through Ackerson's own delegating talents.

[limber gazelle]

Also have another question relating to spartan types to flesh out my current understanding of them

[hollow void]

I mean. Chief has like decades of war experience. I feel like an officer or something would be great unless he still wants to "finish the fight"

[hexed geyser]

i tried To play halo like melee & it didnt end so well

[limber gazelle]

Spartan 1s are hard to come by because they die a lot during the surgeries but are basically unkillable don’t get infected by flood and don’t need armor spartan 2 is children who are abducted told they are abducted put to tests where many die and eventually get augmentation to become soldiers for the unsc spartan 3d are marines who wanted to become Spartans so less time for training and 4s are volunteers and suck

[candid solar]

He has experience killing people. He has little to no experience in actually running large organizations.

[limber gazelle]

Making sure my knowledge is correct

[tawdry iris]

I don’t want to say anything at the risk of being slammed with a fact check from trenchbird

[limber gazelle]

Dont hang me

[hollow void]

Spartan IIs are genetically superior and strongest. While the IIIs are made in the thousands with cost cutting chemical augmentations and the IVs are also cost cutting augmentations but with volunteers

[limber gazelle]

Yeah the 2 had to be mentally special kids

Like gifted and intelligent special

[tawdry iris]

Yup

[limber gazelle]

Trench is typing up a full 5 page informative essay bro

[livid oyster]

Oh just wait

[limber gazelle]

I’m cooked aren’t I

[hollow void]

Idk what genetics made them superior but they can easily use reverse engineered ancient human technology but the IVs can't

[tawdry iris]

Are nerd emojis allowed here?

[livid oyster]

When it comes to Spartan classes trench will work up an essay

[limber gazelle]

It’s over for me I’m lowkey screwed ain’t I

[candid solar]

Is are extremely killable, are absolutely infected by the flood, and by quality are the worst form of Spartan, mostly due to being prototypes.

IIs were kidnapped children, many died in the augs, and are considered the exemplar of all a Spartan should be in terms of performance.

IIIs were coerced and basically kidnapped orphan children, few died in augs, and they were, relative to the Spartan IIs, mass produced. They were otherwise similar to IIs.

IVs were exclusively adult veteran volunteers who were set aside for the IV program in order to make up for HCW losses and bring the Spartan program to a new age now that humanity had the tech and breathing room to do so. They're otherwise considered exceptionally competent soldiers in their own right, capable of physically matching a Spartan II in armor.

[hexed geyser]

Thoese Poor 6 Y/o's😢

[limber gazelle]

Holy crap Batman that’s a lot of words

[candid solar]

That's literally one paragraph worth of words.

That's nothing.

[limber gazelle]

Yeah but I’m tired and uhh lot of words Batman

[tawdry iris]

Chill

[limber gazelle]

And I had to do speeches for this stupid speech class

[candid solar]

Should I put subway surfers under it and read it through an AI voice?

[limber gazelle]

Who knew you needed public speaking to become a doctor

[tawdry iris]

Mate chill

[limber gazelle]

Calm down buddy

[candid solar]

Doesn't surprise me, bedside manner is hard.

[limber gazelle]

It is not that serious

[hasty zinc]

yes please

[limber gazelle]

Make sure to put gta content that’s louder than the ai voice

[hollow void]

Omg it's Jimmy Rings

[tawdry iris]

An OG just showed up

[hollow void]

It's okay they saved humanity

[limber gazelle]

I got him to come guys I’m good luck

Is that not factual information my good sir

[candid solar]

Well, one did. Mostly through author fiat.

[hexed geyser]

hey thats Johnny HaloRings

[hollow void]

Halsey keeps saying she feels bad for it. But let's be real they would have died anyway with the covenant coming

[limber gazelle]

John was a 2

[hasty zinc]

he's a 10, no doubt

[limber gazelle]

Nah bro he’s an 11 get your information correct buddy

[ocean herald]

The covenant was sorta her saving grace from the scrutiny she would have received for the spartan project (at first at least)

[hexed geyser]

nah hes A Spartan 64

[candid solar]

Man's gotta be so pale you can see his organs like he's a glass frog.

I bet his skin is clammy.

[hollow void]

Created to crush human rebellion

[limber gazelle]

Doom 64

[hexed geyser]

I wish there was a N64 Halo game

[limber gazelle]

Doom guy destroys the entire halo universe

[livid oyster]

I don't really enjoy the bad guy rep Halsey gets. I guess someone has to take it, but she was probably the best person for the job. If not her, then someone else would have done it, and I'd say probably not as well

[tawdry iris]

There’s an Atari halo game

[hexed geyser]

Like a PD Mod

[livid oyster]

And John could definitely use a trip to the beach

[hollow void]

It's not like ONI doesn't already do shady stuff

[limber gazelle]

Ain’t they a terrorist group or something

[candid solar]

There's plenty of better reasons to hate Halsey than the IIs. It just so happens that the IIs are like, really high on the list of bad things she did, and acknowledging that she may have been the nicest person to do the job doesn't absolve her of actually doing it.

[hexed geyser]

ik i like the N64 To (64 ) bits

[hollow void]

No they are the CIA of the universe

[smoky token]

ONI is basically the CIA

[tawdry iris]

It was her idea though, there wouldn’t have been a job for someone to step into without her

[smoky token]

stands for Office of Naval Intelligence

[limber gazelle]

Is there a JFK equivalent in the halo universe

[smoky token]

yeah, JFK

[candid solar]

Like, he could be the nicest person in the world, works at the soup kitchen every weekend, but he still threw that kid off a bridge.

[hollow void]

Please stop typing

[ocean herald]

Kat

[smoky token]

TRUE

[limber gazelle]

Who’s that

[smoky token]

Halo Reach character

took a shot to the brain

[limber gazelle]

Ohh yeah the elevator

[hollow void]

I hope the show keeps Miranda alive.

[smoky token]

https://tenor.com/view/kats-death-gif-20015265

[limber gazelle]

Oh the elevator is someone else

[hollow void]

This is why you have shields for a reason

[limber gazelle]

They did my man Jorge dirty bro

[ocean herald]

Is Dr Halsey even referenced in CE-3? I don’t remember

[tawdry iris]

I don’t think so

[hexed geyser]

does kat have a drivers licsence?

[tawdry iris]

Something tells me no

[limber gazelle]

Not anymore

[livid oyster]

Well I don't think it's that simple. It's like choosing between one kid and a thousand people. I think she truly believed she was doing humanity a favor

[hexed geyser]

yeah i thought so

[livid oyster]

Or saving humanity rather

[hollow void]

Yeah man if the war with the rebels and UNSC went on billions would have died

[limber gazelle]

Imma go play fallout 4 yall have a good rest of your night

[ocean herald]

I feel like I’d remember if she was. The moral ambiguity of her character wasn’t really a thing until Reach iirc

[candid solar]

Bro fell for the ONI propaganda

[hollow void]

Its like dropping the bombs on Japan to save the troops

[hexed geyser]

immma go tobed now

[tawdry iris]

Yeah, she wasn’t mentioned in the games at least. Idk about the books though, maybe in the fall of reach book?

[candid solar]

The thing is, that's literally exactly what she thought. But it's also how many, many horrible people felt their actions were justified to them at the time, and feeling bad about something never absolved you of doing it, not truly.

Look at the destruction you have wrought, and ask the dead for forgiveness. Silence will be your answer.

[hexed geyser]

idk why i booted up the mcc when i was going to bed

[tawdry iris]

Have a good one

[ocean herald]

Oh she’s in the books. The games have very little of the lore by comparison

[hexed geyser]

night guys

[hollow void]

Good night

[tawdry iris]

Yeah lmao, really cool character though, never really thought of her as a bad guy when I was younger, at least until I looked into the lore more

[tawdry iris]

😴

[ocean herald]

In Reach you actually see her and she’s anything but nice. In 4 she’s getting questioned by ONI and the game seems to portray her actions finally having caught up to her

[candid solar]

When Halsey left the Infinity to be boarded by Prometheans and Covenant in Halo 4's Spartan Ops episodes, her actions directly abetted the attempted destruction of the Infinity and directly abetted the slaughtering of the ship's crew. She's on the hook for that as well.

All the lives Blue Team could've saved if they didn't go on that wild goose chase on Onyx? Yep, that too.

Honestly, her actions in 5 were probably the closest to a truly good and moral act she made entirely without screwing someone else over.

[livid oyster]

I don't think feeling bad about something absolves someone. But I do believe circumstances matter. The people that have to do bad for the good of others are put in a situation that I don't think 99% of people would want

[hollow void]

Palmer really wanted to kill her huh

So mean

[candid solar]

I mean, a lot of people who know about what she did want her dead.

I don't think that's an entirely unjustified perspective on Palmer's part.

[hollow void]

I think Chief doesn't think her as evil

I forgot that line. Need to find the page

[ocean herald]

To put it mildly, he’s brainwashed lol

[tawdry iris]

Yeah lmao, I just never put much thought into it as a kid

[candid solar]

They do matter, but they don't absolve you. She was manipulated into doing what she did with the IIs, but she still did what she did.

[ocean herald]

And a victim

[candid solar]

Pretty much. I think it was actually Fred who said it though, not Chief.

Which is kind of the easiest way to cope with it.

[ocean herald]

Yeah me either. Tbf the early games didn’t want you to think about it

[tawdry iris]

Yeah, and I’m fine with not having to think about it since I don’t think it should have been the focus anyway

[hollow void]

I wonder if their parents know their kids became Spartan IIs or they all died by the time it went public

Or it's still a secret

[ocean herald]

Probably never knew

[candid solar]

I should note that it's not that I don't think the scales can be turned back to being 'good'. I think that's doable. I just also don't think you can ever truly be absolved no matter how you or your victims feel, it's still a negative deed. If I blew up your house on a whim but gave you double the money it was worth to get a new one, I still blew up your home on a whim, I was just nice enough to make up for it.

[tawdry iris]

They were replaced with flashclones remember, they assume their children died to a disease or organ failure or something

[signal wedge]

Show chief still remembers his real mommy

[livid oyster]

That's totally fair. For me, it's just tough to judge what she did. I do see your point though

[tawdry iris]

Alright, my time has come

I gotta sleep, it was good talking with you all

🫡

[signal wedge]

I think there was going to be a second batch of IIs? but there was not enough candidates

[ocean herald]

Goodnight!

[signal wedge]

goodnight

[ocean herald]

Never heard of them

[signal wedge]

never mind probably read it on some reddit fanon

[livid oyster]

Spartan ops I'll give you that one. I see Halsey's anger but it was just a dumb move. But onyx, I can't blame her. At that point the war seemed lost, it was lost. If not for the miraculous schism. I do have an idea of how the war could have still been won that would've required a sooner alliance with the grave mind but that's a conversation for another topic

[signal wedge]

flee the galaxy i guess

then come back once the covies killed themselves with the Halo

[limber gazelle]

What did she do

[candid solar]

Made the Spartan IIs by kidnapping and augmenting children.

[limber gazelle]

Oh yeaaaaah

[mighty spire]

can anyone help guide me on an issue where my stats arent tracking in halo mcc

[next shell]

hi

[drifting ether]

Also if anyone was wanting to know i tried to correct myself many times earlier today before I went into work around 11am

You see.... I'd hate to be that guy....

But Im looking for someone to run this ish with. Is anyone down?

[fresh turtle]

[fickle drift]

Man...

Guess its just too early.

[slender rose]

A friend of mine is a Call of Duty fan, I tried getting him into the Halo verse and he said, "Alien Shooter naw". How do I reply to this kid?

[fickle drift]

[fickle drift]

Well I now know I can only fall asleep and work to one thing and one thing only. The track music from halo, specifically all eight hours of music on the Spotify playlist.

[fickle drift]

I will say the song breaking Benjamin did for Halo 2 is actually hella good

I will say though Halo 4 and Halo infinite music it's not that bad I was surprised at how well that soundtrack was well listening to it. But I will say in order rank-wise cuz I don't think a halo 5 or any of the Halo 5 music is on the playlist that I've seen so far or heard I will put Halo 3 ODST on top and then it's a tie with Halo 2 and Halo 3 for second place Halo reach is above or I would say as equal to Halo 4 and Halo infinite musics but if I had to like make an actual tier list I could probably go on for hours about that I didn't realize how much of an effect the music from this franchise has on me I do apologize for rambling but I'm just nerding out about it

[bold niche]

You find new friends.

[obsidian wyvern]

halo 5 has some bangers

[fickle drift]

You right tho

I will say when some of the music started playing and then there's like this high pitch scratching noise I immediately knew that was a flood level

[obsidian wyvern]

the main menu theme, blue team, the light is green, crypt and walk softly

I guess I should actually make that YouTube playlist now that they've uploaded everything properly

[fickle drift]

I will say for like 3 days in a row I have woken up to winter contingency from Halo reach

[obsidian wyvern]

..okay whys the official halo soundtrack channel using this channel for its playlists lol

even though they uploaded it themselves? lol what

[amber mirage]

I thought anything that had "Topic" in the title wasn't an official playlist. I always assumed it was auto-generated.

[obsidian wyvern]

seems it

but then why would yt do that lol

[amber mirage]

I think it's kind of like the Recommended stuff. It tags things based on similarity and what other people watch and jsut compiles them together so people get something relevant to their interests

[obsidian wyvern]

this annoys me more than it should, couldve all been the same 😩

[fickle drift]

https://open.spotify.com/track/2ZFsfNSjGNtRzL6jqRwHPH?si=d4OYMUVaSkuRVsXBZZfDAw

Or

https://open.spotify.com/track/5z8N00nVCTlBDn0ZM51A0D?si=7Q0ZvS_6TIGJaYT3yj8V_Q

I love these two

[obsidian wyvern]

i actually need to go through the odst playlist again, heard quite a few i liked whilst playing the other day

[fickle drift]

The odst playlist is good on a rainy day and guess what My city is under a flood warning because of the rain so I'mma be blasting the odst playlist

[amber mirage]

ODST's Mombasa Streets tracks all have like three parts and they don't feel right together

[obsidian wyvern]

it was the Mombasa street tracks I was interested in, and yk how one small thing can ruin a whole song for me 😔

[fickle drift]

Honestly I understand but there's like this one song in Halo infinite and it has like these drums and the rhythm is amazing

[obsidian wyvern]

drums at the start?

[fickle drift]

I'll have to find it

It's unfortunate that ODST makes use of the suite format for some of its tracks, like Reach does

I prefer how H2 seperates its tracks.

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah never liked that

[fickle drift]

I will say there is not one song I don't like because to me all of it just helps me focus

[obsidian wyvern]

this?
https://open.spotify.com/track/4x6NEhuPtUiN0FJpFxReII?si=42b6ade5e14e4a05

thanks

did they disable spotify from embedding here

[amber mirage]

It embedded for me

[obsidian wyvern]

weird lol, refreshing didnt work either

[ocean herald]

did it not used to embed without the link also being there?

[amber mirage]

Maybe a browser/desktop client difference?

[obsidian wyvern]

used to work fine on browser before, ill check the app

[ocean herald]

i restarted discord (desktop) and now the embed is gone lol

[obsidian wyvern]

nope still cant

[vapid siren]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

eh whatever

[amber mirage]

it's a conspiracy

[obsidian wyvern]

let me test the embed feature lol

<iframe style="border-radius:12px" src="https://open.spotify.com/embed/track/4x6NEhuPtUiN0FJpFxReII?utm_source=generator" width="100%" height="152" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen="" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture" loading="lazy"></iframe>

[fickle drift]

Nothing like playing Minecraft and listening to Halo music when I get off work

[obsidian wyvern]

lmfao

mp3 embed stays winning

[fickle drift]

I like Minecraft's music tbf, tickles that nostalgia bone.

[obsidian wyvern]

pigstep was good

[fickle drift]

The thing that triggers nostalgia for me and makes me cry every time is that guitar rift into Halo 2 opening

[hasty zinc]

Mass Effect 3 Map Menu Music goes hard

[fickle drift]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[hasty zinc]

if you ever can't sleep, throw that on

[meager linden]

Halo Reach epilogue theme

[fickle drift]

I will say Wall listening to this playlist I'm not sure if I said or not because my mind is tired from work I can actually think for once and when I'm at home laying in bed I'm out like a light within like the first five songs of the playlist

[vapid siren]

yeah but that only works when im in elite or starfield map imo

like i gotta be in a space map to feel it

[hasty zinc]

yeah

[fickle drift]

When it comes to the Halo games I do kind of want to know more about the headhunters and I feel like a game about headhunters would be fun kind of gives off a reach vibe to it

[floral garden]

guys I need help

I downloaded Halo Infinite after a year on my pc and it keeps crashing

[peak flume]

Good morning sugar dumplings 😋

[fickle drift]

Morning

Well for me it's actually night

[peak flume]

I got me a Starbucks caramel ribbon crunch with 3 shots

[fickle drift]

And I have like four or five monsters sitting in my fridge for me tonight

[peak flume]

Woooooo

[fickle drift]

That does sound good though

[floral garden]

srsly?? it takes the biggest company on the planet that long to fix a game on their own os?

[peak flume]

I just had a Celsius

[obsidian wyvern]

yes

[meager linden]

That soundtrack from halo 3 flood💀

[fickle drift]

I love that soundtrack so much

[vapid siren]

nvidia is cringe like that

its not 343/ms

its nvidia

[obsidian wyvern]

^

[vapid siren]

like... cmon man

this isnt even the first time its happened lmao

[floral garden]

so how long'll this take to fix? that post u shared is over 10days old

[vapid siren]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[obsidian wyvern]

ask nvidia

[vapid siren]

as long as it takes nvidia to unscrew their driver

just do a rollback

download an older nvidia gpu driver its that easy man

takes idk 10 minutes max?

[obsidian wyvern]

going through infinite soundtracks and remembering even that got leaked to us through toys lmfao

[fickle drift]

Speaking of the flood I think I might go play the library just for fun

[meager linden]

Good luck

[ocean herald]

they might just plan to address it in the next driver update lol. amd did the same to me with fallout 3/nv, and that still isn't officially fixed

[floral garden]

i don't like rolling back n forth between software versions, i'm not that tech savvy and am too scared i'll screw it up😭

[meager linden]

I hate this level so much

[obsidian wyvern]

theres a guide right there, its p simple

[fickle drift]

Library mid, Two Betrayals much worse.

Keyes worse too.

What about Cortana that level in Halo 3

I mean learn the layout and its fine.

It has like one bad room.

[ocean herald]

rolling back sounds scary but all you're doing is downloading and installing a prior driver over your current one

[obsidian wyvern]

i was looking at short cross game playlists for achievements and a lot of them had two betrayals so it just put me off

[fickle drift]

I wish the flood levels would scare me like they used to when I was a kid

[obsidian wyvern]

i have never liked that mission

[meager linden]

Easy
Pick up an energy sword and kill everything you see

[floral garden]

alr i'll try it

[vapid siren]

yeah and the install wizard is the same when you pdate drivers anyways

like its really just updating drivers again, but backwards

[fickle drift]

I've been trying to learn that Banshee door skip but its so finnicky

Only been able to do it a couple of times.

[vapid siren]

ofc this also means you have a long shader compilation on initial game boot so dont be surprised it takes a few minutes to get into the game

because gamers always forget thats wtf long boots are on literally any game after a major update to the pc, driver, or game

[floral garden]

i see the download button, but how do i install it after downloading?

[amber mirage]

Run the installer that you just downloaded

[ocean herald]

double click on the downloaded file

[floral garden]

ok

[fickle drift]

Well I am probably actually going to head to bed cuz I realize I have to go play starfinder later tonight before work and I want sleep so I'm going to have to bed now so y'all have a good one

[obsidian wyvern]

👋

[meager linden]

See you

[peak flume]

Nights man

[floral garden]

it's done, but how do i know if the issue's been fixed so that i can update it again?

[peak flume]

I kind of want to change my name to Guilty Sparks lol

[floral garden]

dew it

[vapid siren]

when nivida's patch notes say its fixed

[peak flume]

Lol

[vapid siren]

legit just gotta wait and check that out. r/nvidia usually does a good job tracking that stuff

not much else you can do lmao

[floral garden]

yea.. i don't read those, i just update it when an update is out.

[vapid siren]

well

there's the issue

[floral garden]

😅

[fallow temple]

What you think about me??

mornin chat

[hollow tundra]

Guys I might be crazy. But I swear halo 5 looks better than halo infinite

Atleast on series consoles not sure about PC

[floral pollen]

5 isn't on PC

[hollow tundra]

I think it is but not multiplayer. You can only play customs games

[floral pollen]

I think the Forge part is

[hollow tundra]

Yea

[floral pollen]

I'll check that again tho

but I think I do remember seeing it ages ago when I was looking at Halo stuff

[hollow tundra]

But I swear boot up halo 5, then infinite. Or actually vise versa is better. And you will be like wait why does halo 5 from 2014 look better

Or at the very least the same graphics lol

Just different art design

[floral pollen]

Random side thought:
Anyone else not able to find Firefight matches in Infinite the past 2 days?
Like I can find the matches, but they won't load in at all

[hollow tundra]

Hmmm I never play firefight

I can try to search one right now to see if it loads me one

[hollow tundra]

Searched firefight normal and found a game immediately

So no issue for me

[floral pollen]

I'm trying again, I usually just que Gruntpoaclypse Fiesta, but like I can find a match, and it loads everything, but then its like I'm the one still loading on "other players loading", before it just cancels the matchmaking

just loaded into one now tho, dunno what was going on

aand its a 7-900 ping constant match...

[candid solar]

I feel like a lot of games do outright tell you when that's happening, which is probably better than, y'know, not.

Specifically because people are goobers who don't know things like that unless it's being screamed at their face.

[meager linden]

New fear unlocked

[floral garden]

guys i'm playin infinite's multiplayer for the first time and can someone pls tell me why my ping is so insanely high??? i get under 40ms of ping in games like valorant but in infinite it's going over 2000 and averaging around 500. It's like my hits aren't even registering

[hollow tundra]

Maybe your region or something

[winter zodiac]

Yup never

[hollow tundra]

Anyone on series S here?

[winter zodiac]

And for some lame reason the way it's set up you can only play one certain firefight variant at a time one month it might be gruntpocalyspe only next month it will be Heroic and once in a blue moon they will have Legendary

[floral garden]

so microsoft, the biggest company on the planet, doesn't have a server in one of the most populated countries (india)?

[winter zodiac]

Not sure how 343 doesn't include firefight at launch, waits years to release it, and still messes up

[floral pollen]

I'm southern Ontario (NA), and I usually can do FF games super consistently on like 70-100 ping

its just the past two days that I haven't been able to get into matches

[floral garden]

my ping is going over 2k bro

[winter zodiac]

Fastest indian connection

[floral garden]

i literally have a 1gbps connection

ping is below 5 on speedtests

[hollow tundra]

I'm USA and usually my pings around like 40-80

I have at£t like the regular crap plan

Like 13mbps download and ping is still usually fine on most games on series S

[floral garden]

cool, but why's the ping so bad in india?

[hollow tundra]

No clue I don't work for Microsoft lol

Maybe they just have less towers or your internet could be slower

[winter zodiac]

Less quality and less towers

[floral garden]

"1gbps"

[forest lagoon]

Ping is below 5 connecting to what server? Ping is mostly calculated by how close you are to a server you are pinging

[winter zodiac]

Thats not the majority

[forest lagoon]

data speed plays a part in it but not as much a distance can

[amber mirage]

Its also likely there aren't enough people playing in your region at the time you are, so you're getting a match on a server further away.

[winter zodiac]

Yup

[amber mirage]

Halo's never really been popular in Asia

[floral garden]

hmm, that's most likely

[hollow tundra]

Maybe go into settings and set region to " local" instead of " "expanded " to maybe try to find a closer server

Not saying that will work but worth a shot

On a side note. More people need to play ranked tactical lol

Takes too long to find a game it's so good

[floral garden]

where can i find that setting?

[hollow tundra]

In halo infinite settings, gameplay tab, matchmaking, search region

[floral garden]

done, gotta delta, will check ping later

[hollow tundra]

I just loaded a game and have only 23 ms ping lol

God like

On wifi too

[floral pollen]

I have horrid internet, or I could prolly get better ping

[hollow tundra]

Your in Canada? What kinda Internet they have up there?

Do yall have at&t

[obsidian wyvern]

finally got myself to do it

[floral pollen]

Haven't heard of it
I think my speed is like 1 Gb/s, but it feels way slower when doing certain stuff

[obsidian wyvern]

1gb/s is fast

[floral pollen]

good job

[obsidian wyvern]

https://www.speedtest.net/ use this

[floral pollen]

I think its mb actually
I forget now
its slow tho

[hollow tundra]

Bro I have slow internet like 13 Mbps in USA, and yet my ping is only 20. I guess because I'm in a major city (Chicago) there are a lot of towers to ping n

[obsidian wyvern]

people would kill for 1gbps lol

[floral pollen]

yea its MB then I think

[hollow tundra]

Oh yea 1mbps is horrendous then lmfao

[floral pollen]

I just autopiloted onto GB for some reason

[hollow tundra]

God I couldn't imagine even playing chess on my phone with 1 mbps

[obsidian wyvern]

so close to finishing both of these games

[floral pollen]

I'm checking it on Rev's thing rn
I do have a few things open so it may affectit slightly, but I'll see

[fickle drift]

You can do it Rev, persistence and patience. 💪

[floral pollen]

bro the speed test won't even load rn 😭

My internet's been painfully slow for like 3 days now and idk why
it does it sometimes and its extremely annoying

[obsidian wyvern]

rip

[obsidian wyvern]

ill make it in a few years 💪

that banshee one for odst is tough, can never enter it in time before it explodes

[floral pollen]

I'm gonna check if there's sumn downloading on the Xbox, but if not then I really dunno what's goin on

aannnndd our Xbox was the problem
now I can't use internet today basically bc it messes it up when its on all night for some reason

[hollow tundra]

Damn

[slender rose]

Dang, you say this after I purchase the game.

[frosty siren]

Weird question but, do any of you random get nosebleeds for no reason

[amber mirage]

Occasionally

[frosty siren]

And I mean a lot of blood

[candid solar]

I had a nasal polyp when I was a kid, otherwise no.

[frosty siren]

I wish o could show off my Halloween themed spartan

[granite sky]

Make sure your Dr knows about the nosebleeds

[livid oyster]

I don't get random nosebleeds, but when I'm out in the desert I wake up almost every morning with blood in my nose

[normal owl]

Yeah I was already hesitant to go on any rides that were not at big major amusement parks, but this seals it.

[candid solar]

I refuse to go on any ride at a county faire that goes upside down.

[fickle drift]

I’m not big on flat rides in general

[obsidian wyvern]

me neither

[wide heron]

[wide heron]

[agile palm]

[wide heron]

So far in Halo Infinite .. currently grinding older battle passes .. finished the current one quite along time ago

[agile palm]

[livid oyster]

What about downside up

[open tinsel]

[bold sparrow]

Its monday.
in Ranked.
No ones playing Ranked RN.

Try BTB

[winter flame]

you just have to stack

[hollow tundra]

Bro I'm stuck gold 6 lmfao. I'm always one off plat and we lose. I carry the team every game like 20-7 and every game I got a guy who's 2-15

[winter flame]

for ranked. even duo stack like halves your match making time

[hollow tundra]

Or like 1-16 no joke I have screens

Solo que life is sad life 😭

[forest lagoon]

That's how I got a minor concussion as a kid. Never again.

[hollow tundra]

Are you doing ranked tactical?

[winter flame]

no way ur finding Ranked SWAT outside the US solo queuing

could barely find Ranked Snipers

[fierce sinew]

Why did I get banned

[severe sequoia]

halo

[candid tusk]

Get bonked on the ground?

[normal owl]

If referring to an Xbox ban you'll have to go to Xbox directly. If referring to a Discord ban you'll need to DM @bleak yoke .

[fierce sinew]

Xbox ban

[normal owl]

^

[forest lagoon]

Bonked in the air. Barely was a seat belt. Things was called The Zipper. It went up and around similar to a ferris wheel but a closed cage that flipped upside down.

Me and my dad went on it together. It flipped fast, I slipped out of the seat and hit my head on the non padded ceiling. Dad said I blacked out for a few seconds while he tried to wake me up and respond. All while he was trying to hold me down and stop me from slipping out and hitting my head again.

Fun times

[open tinsel]

ranked arena and ranked slayer

[hollow tundra]

Man please. Can anyone play some ranked tactical slayer with me. Every game I'm on top of my team but they suck badm I'm gold 6 and wanna get plat

I get teamtes literally going 1-15

[drifting ether]

Only way u can get banned on xbox is by doin something your NOT supposed to be doing 💯

Xbox monitors everyone and if you said something bad or did mods into a game or something that breaks the policy rules 🤔

[drifting ether]

Practice

[livid oyster]

Ranked swat really urks me. On small maps especially

[peak flume]

Good afternoon lovely people 😘

[drifting ether]

It's easy in ranked swat what ya mean

[peak flume]

What's everyone's favorite veggie?

[drifting ether]

Also good afternoon

[drifting ether]

Cauliflower

[normal owl]

https://tenor.com/view/star-wars-general-grevious-bold-one-gif-12332693

[livid oyster]

My last swat game was aquarius and I had gotten spawned killed like 2 or 3 times in a row and I went on an expletive filled rant

[peak flume]

I do love cauliflower very versatile

[drifting ether]

Cauliflower pizza and Cauliflower in vegetable soup is good

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bQBVw.gif

[peak flume]

Might be my new fav

[normal owl]

You're right, and roasted & seasoned cauliflower too.

[hasty zinc]

wait wasnt' there a halo thing with chief and grevious

[drifting ether]

Gee that a lot of hands with swords

[peak flume]

I airfired my cauliflower the other day and it was amazing

[normal owl]

Now that's just flexing.

[candid solar]

Asparagus.

[drifting ether]

Yea it's the same guy that made goku and chief vs each other

[candid solar]

Christ, what does that guy have against Chief?

[livid oyster]

Once you get to facing high diamond players everyone is a crack shot

[normal owl]

Corn

[livid oyster]

Spinach is the king of veggies. The only reference I need is popeye

[hasty zinc]

yeah I didn' tpost because of bad words lol

[drifting ether]

Throw it on the grill in some foil with corn and peppers and carrots and grab some steak that you make fajitas with and than make you some good ole Cauliflower burritos 🌯

Now that's good but don't forget the sauce

[normal owl]

That sounds like much more time & work than I'm willing to put into a weekday dinner lol

[obsidian wyvern]

community notes on twitter is amazing so hopefully this is as good

Twitter · Jun 17, 2024, 3:24 PM

[drifting ether]

It's really good

[normal owl]

I believe you, but that costs a lot of time.

[frosty siren]

Well we got doctor man here

[drifting ether]

I played alot of swat back in the day and still some on halo infinite its very simple just takes practice cause even them diamonds were noobs to at first till they got better at it

[drifting ether]

Yea it take time to make that you have to be at a cookout or something with family to make that kinda stuff or have a day off from work

[normal owl]

Does sound really good. Can I ask what seasonings you normally use?

[candid solar]

Cool, maybe now some egregious misunderstandings can get corrected more viciously in videos.

[drifting ether]

Sounds very good alot of people don't like Cauliflower but when ya take the first bite of something you will eat for the rest of your life and try to make it your own way

[drifting ether]

I usually use steak seasoning on the steak and than use a little salt and pepper on the veggies and let them cook in the foil and the sauce I use to dip the burritos in is called Wasabi mayo
I like spicy foods 😋

[smoky token]

it’s a real shame that everyone credits community notes to elon cause it was planned way before he got his grubby hands on it

[hasty zinc]

nice

[floral garden]

So guys I was playing the campaign on infinite (I'm playing after a year) and for some reason the trees and other things aren't rendering properly, idk if that's the right word, like the trees and stuff look like the game is still in development and the cutscenes look the same like everything looks like it's still in development and the characters' faces remain still while talking, any idea how to fix this? It's only happening in the campaign, the multiplayer is fine

[hasty zinc]

I would try #1075989764026675210

[drifting ether]

I usually try make so many things and just mix and match together to something that so good

[drifting ether]

Sounds like you got a damaged graphics card

[hasty zinc]

nah

[floral garden]

Other games are running fine? Like I was legit playing cyberpunk on ultra settings

[hasty zinc]

it's an issue that people have brought up before

[floral garden]

Do u know how to fix it?

[winter flame]

if you have less then 8GB vram:

uninstall high res textures / lower settings

increase paging file size to say 8GB https://www.tomshardware.com/news/how-to-manage-virtual-memory-pagefile-windows-10,36929.html

If you have plenty of vram this shouldnt make a difference tho.

[drifting ether]

Oh well than if it's been brought up before than I guess it would be the games engine having issues running 60fps

[floral garden]

I've got 6gigs of vram

[winter flame]

what i said should help then

[smoky token]

lemme guess

2060?

[floral garden]

3060 laptop

[smoky token]

ah

[floral garden]

Will try this if it still happens on my next session

[drifting ether]

My bad I've seen that issue before on certain games through pc it sometimes would be the graphics card failing

[winter flame]

you also probably need an SSD to run the campaign on PC. Xbox One can run it off a hard drive but that's doing some memory magic to work

[floral garden]

I've got a 1tb SSD

It ran fine back when I played it a year ago

[winter flame]

sweet i think just lowering settings / uninstalling high res textures should work

[drifting ether]

@winter flame I apologize for the way I acted yesterday

[winter flame]

and if not paging file

[floral garden]

Okay

[vapid siren]

hell yeah

[obsidian wyvern]

@smoky token this u lol

[smoky token]

yeag

[vapid siren]

damn that goes hard as a pfp

[drifting ether]

So apparently a new mod is out where you can have master chief armor from halo ce anniversary on Starfield that's pretty dope

[winter flame]

no worries man, respect for being receptive to what i said

[drifting ether]

Now halo is in Starfield

[vapid siren]

https://youtu.be/yemiKDWjme4

[drifting ether]

Agreed 👍

[river crater]

Just give me good hair mods in Starfield (Spoiler) ||and the ability to carry over my gear into any NG+||

[vivid wyvern]

Wsg

[vapid siren]

games been out like a year bro

also no thats not the point of ng+

if you dont wanna lose your gear in ng+ then dont switch to the next universe the game literally gives you the option

hold on wheres the tweet

[vivid wyvern]

bros devoted 😭

[candid tusk]

Could be nice to have a granular NG+ options area though.

[vapid siren]

you already get a fresh ship and drip and all the perks/skills

at best they could preserve ship schematics you make for saving time

[candid tusk]

Note: I haven't played Starfield.

[vivid wyvern]

Yall know the master chief collection on steam??

[vapid siren]

no never heard of it

[drifting ether]

Naww

[vapid siren]

halo? on something other than just xbox?

absurd
