THE MANTIS CAN CROUCH?!

[normal owl]

@covert dove right now

[covert dove]

Agreed, I always hated the reach AR as much as I loved the game

[covert dove]

[pulsar cobalt]

The best AR is CE and 3's

[languid vessel]

oh im talking about infinites AR lol

[pliant jewel]

oof

I definitely knew that

[languid vessel]

infinite was my first and favourite halo

[pliant jewel]

reach is the best in my opinion

[languid vessel]

i find reach too dark and grimy. almost grotty.

and the bloom makes it so hard to actually do anything...

matchmaking is so sweaty too, i would prefer using any gun aside from the DMR

oh and dont get me started on rhe lore being so funky compared to the books

as you can see, i am very much not a reach enjoyer

[pliant jewel]

the DMR is good though

I don’t really care about most of the lore, if the game is good, I’m playing it, no lore gonna stop me from that

[languid vessel]

its too good, thats the issue. it outclasses almost every gun, making it almost useless to pick up anything aside from a plasma pistol unless in very specific situations\

[pliant jewel]

😭

[trim saddle]

Good Morning Spartans!

[normal owl]

Good morning brother!

[trim saddle]

last week was off work on vacation and I spend a lot of time away from electronics, felt good. Went to Michigan Adventures with my family and went to other places around there for a few days. Amazing time.

[pliant jewel]

good morning

[pliant jewel]

halo reach

“IM READY! HOW BOUT YOU?”

[willow mauve]

halo 2

[pliant jewel]

nice

[willow mauve]

have u played halo 2

[pliant jewel]

uhhh…

[willow mauve]

: (

[pliant jewel]

a quarter of it yeah

[willow mauve]

why didnt u continue its a masterpiece

[lime cedar]

dog im replaying it rn I forgot how good it is

[willow mauve]

yeah praise halo 2

[jade gust]

Story's good but it definitely needed longer in the oven on the gameplay side of things

[trim saddle]

I couldnt tell you how many times i replayed the campaigns for 1-3 when they dropped.. but i know its a lot lol

[rare cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-master-chief-i-need-a-weapon-weapon-weapons-gif-18674787

The most BA line ever said

[lime cedar]

TBH I only played halo 2 campaign 1 time now Im replaying it again with two buddies who havent played it and now Im just playing it to get a feel for the levels

[rare cedar]

You understand it more the older you get imo

I played it when it came out (2004 ) and later for MCC and I grasped the story better

Even playing it now, almost 20 years later, it still holds value as one of the best stories told

[willow mauve]

i remember when the pc version came out around 2007 and i went to my friend with 2 other buddies

we tried beating it before morning because that friend's lil bro snitched on us that we are playing an M game to his mom

the days

[lime cedar]

yeah Ijust gifted my friend MCC and other friend I played through reach and CE and He liked it and the buddy I gifted through wanted to finish reach in one day and he said it was okay

[normal owl]

This was so cool-looking I had to buy it despite not needing it at all.

NES-inspired design

[forest lagoon]

I didn't think I needed another keyboard till now...

https://tenor.com/view/thirsty-spongebob-i-dont-need-it-sweat-gif-5031443

[hasty zinc]

love the design, but I absolutely need a numpad

[trim saddle]

Anyone else believe in love at first sight?

[pliant jewel]

crazy

[hasty zinc]

96% is the smallest I want to go

[forest lagoon]

I prefer a numberpad and it's a debate I have every time I look at at a new keyboard. The smaller width would be pretty helpful at my home desk and fit so much better but I have a hard time giving it up...

[safe island]

I have done RESEARCH

He is a being of pure rage and moral good, and unfortunately would not be the strangely happy to Chief’s seriousness

[fickle drift]

Hm

[normal owl]

It was 100% an emotional decision to get it haha. I need a numpad but I love this design so much I was willing to give it a chance. @forest lagoon @trim saddle

[safe island]

I still want him to give Chief a hug

[forest lagoon]

It would look so good next to this coaster holder I'm planning on making. Found these retro coasters that are in the shape of NES cartridges (but flatter) and when I'm finished like 3 more projects I want to make small replica of the NES to keep them in

[normal owl]

I think it's meant to be!

[sturdy scroll]

Hey there!
For a first Halo game, I'd recommend Halo: Reach. It's got a great story and awesome multiplayer. Plus, it's part of the Master Chief Collection, so you can explore more of the series after.
Let me know if you need more tips!

[safe island]

It’s also first chronologically

[crimson hedge]

So just making sure I got the timing right, the current operation lasts for another 26 hours?

[obsidian wyvern]

it ends tomorrow in about 2 or 3 hrs from now

[crimson hedge]

Allright, thanks

[obsidian wyvern]

bruh because the game keeps ending at the start

idek why that counts as a quit when it ended as a tie, that should count as the match completing??

[ocean herald]

oof

i got on for the first time in a few weeks yesterday and i was able to play 3 matches before it kept saying "having issues with the dedicated server"

[analog knot]

Hey at least you don’t get banned every time the game crashes

[hasty zinc]

new SNW first look video!

[worldly badger]

343 is not going to acknowledge the matchmaking issues making the game unplayable the last few weeks?

[worldly badger]

Exhibit A

[obsidian wyvern]

thought I'd actually play today and try go for the next rank but the game doesn't want me to 🤷‍♂️

[worldly badger]

Reddit posts with hundreds of upvotes confirming they are experiencing the same issues, no acknowledgement from 343, I got to give respect to xdefiant being an indie dev and communicating with their players

[elfin glacier]

xdefiant is ubisoft

[worldly badger]

the publisher not the studio

they have a fraction of the people working on that game

[elfin glacier]

ok so tiny wholesum indiedev with the backing of a multinational company

[worldly badger]

I could say the same about 343

[rare cedar]

343 isn’t indie

[worldly badger]

could've fooled me

[rare cedar]

Ok so what’s your point

[worldly badger]

there are major matchmaking issues the past few weeks with no acknowledgement

[rare cedar]

343 just hosted an esports event and will soon launch CU this week.

The problem could be fixed in the CU for all we know, so we’ll see

[worldly badger]

people getting in 3 games in an hour of matchmaking

[elfin glacier]

right, but why bring up an unrelated game

[worldly badger]

people getting kicked out of games and getting banned "for quitting"

[analog knot]

Excuse me this issue has been happening for over a year in MCC, you cant just skip in line

[elfin glacier]

lower priority

[worldly badger]

I brought up the game as a comparison of the community engagement/communication

[rare cedar]

I’m very certain 343 is aware of the issue; they aren’t required to make a statement.

[elfin glacier]

in what way

you just said they "communicate" with players

[worldly badger]

if it was an issue that was a fluke 1 day issue maybe, but its been weeks

[elfin glacier]

which 343 has done in the past, many times

[analog knot]

"It worked fine for me last time I tried, maybe you have an ISP issue" is the feedback I've received from 343 in the past, I imagine thats the same for this problem no?

[willow mauve]

yo is mcc down

[analog knot]

no

[worldly badger]

isp issue, yes an isp issue with their server provider

We are aware of the matchmaking issues and will keep everyone updated as we work to resolve the issue, there you go

people are queueing up and think something is wrong with their game/internet because there is no acknowledgement that it is a game issue spanning weeks

[willow mauve]

dude its like this since the mcc release

are u a 343 dev?

[worldly badger]

no

just a fellow gamer

[willow mauve]

what do u think of mcc

[worldly badger]

it is a game that released broken and got better over the years to a point of being playable

still has issues but won't get anymore updates

[analog knot]

we were told this for years

[willow mauve]

since 2019

[analog knot]

and yet the updates arrive 😄 #blessed

[willow tangle]

Updates tomorrow donkey

[worldly badger]

The update tomorrow is for Infinite

I was asked about MCC

[willow tangle]

Mcc oh my bad

[worldly badger]

Its ok, MCC and Infinite's release story are both the same

[pulsar cobalt]

Ubisoft San Francisco how are they a indie dev ?

[hasty zinc]

manj was saying Ubisoft is the publisher, not the dev studio

[worldly badger]

ok I stand corrected, my point still stands about the communication about game issues

if they are both considered AAA studios

[urban warren]

Are there any books that help bridge 5 and Infinite?

[trim saddle]

I think beating your head against the wall will suffice. In jest of course, dont do that please.

[pulsar cobalt]

The dev stuido is Ubisoft San Francisco though

[hasty zinc]

oh

my bad

[obsidian wyvern]

shadows of reach and the Rubicon protocol

there might be more but those 2 are basically part of infinites story

[urban warren]

I also heard that Halo Wars 2 gives some more lore for the Banished. Not sure how much it ties into Infinite's story though

[obsidian wyvern]

halo wars 2 introduced the banished

it's worth checking out the cutscenes at the very least

[urban warren]

My OCD kinda gives me mixed feeling on Infinite. Kinda wish they hadn't dropped the Created Uprising storyline since I don't like unfinished things but I do like the sandbox aspect of Infinite and the sheer mayhem that your fireteam can cause.

[jade gust]

That's why I hope we see Created in the next game

Show us an AI that went with Cortana to Zeta who now has control of local Promethean forces and has their own plans now that Cortana is gone

[pliant jewel]

are you supposed to put a vitamin in milk?

[jade gust]

I have no clue

[pliant jewel]

lol ok

it taste good ngl, it’s just a teeny tiny sour

[granite sky]

sour patch kids?

[pliant jewel]

this

nvm it taste disgusting

[crimson goblet]

[hexed geyser]

Im planning on Refunding Spyro on PC for Halo Infinite's Campaign

[gaunt steeple]

Does anyone know if Halo Reach and ODST are included with the MCC disc or not?

Cuz I don’t wanna pay for something I already own

[hasty zinc]

Reach and ODST are separate and aren't on the disc IIRC

[amber mirage]

Correct

[normal owl]

Wow I had to go back to your comment to remember those are coasters: so detailedly portrayed!

I deeply apologize: I don't think I ever shared my food collage from last weekend. It was such a crazy week with work, but no excuse really.

[meager linden]

Sushi looks delicious

[pale rivet]

The Xbox 360's last day is today, 18 years and it all ends today

[amber mirage]

Not all of it

[pale rivet]

there is a bunch of free stuff on the 360's store today though like a lot of free map packs ( halo maps, GOW maps, some other dlcs) and some games like too human

[pale rivet]

a bunch of it lives on on the xbox one but there is a lot that will disappear forever after tonight

[winter flame]

i tried to install all my games and make sure i had all the free dlc

dunno if i got everything. might boot it up later and check

[amber mirage]

I'm gonna need to buy an external hard drive for my 360. The download times were rough and I'd need a decent bit more space to store everything.

[winter flame]

i just about got everything on my 120 and 60gb drives. a good chunk is demos cause i was cheap and never bought a lot of games but i gotta keep the demos for nostalgia

there's a few games i dont bother keeping on my 360 tho. Gears, CODs, GTAIV. They all run so much better on Series X I just dont think I'd ever boot them up on the 360

[amber mirage]

I went and bought a lot of the stuff that never got rereleased or made available through backcompat, so the 360 is going to be specifically for those

[winter flame]

i did get the COD WAW demo for lols

Yeah the Halos are the only games I think I have on the 360 that are back compat

[amber mirage]

I got rid of those

I still had them leftover earlier, but just wiped them off for space

[winter flame]

i kept them just cause there isn't really much reason to have them on my Series X with MCC existing

but i still wanna be able to boot them up lol

[amber mirage]

I don't have them installed anywhere cause of MCC

If I want to reinstall them, should be a lot smoother and faster on the Series X

[winter flame]

tbf you can still just put the disk in

[warm fiber]

Hello

[amber mirage]

It'd probably be faster for me to download them than pull out my discs.

[winter flame]

its actually more nostalgic to play off the disk since i dont think i installed games on my measly 20GB hard drive back in the day

[remote olive]

It seems to me like its already down, I could download any themes or video or anything after I just got an xbox live update

[winter flame]

i only got a 60GB and 120GB wayyy after the 360's prime

man the disk drive is loud tho lol

[amber mirage]

I got the 360 S after my first 360 died so that has a nice 250GB HDD

Still not enough for all my stuff

[winter flame]

dang big collection

[pale rivet]

its working for me, im currently downloading a bunch of stuff, like crackdown 1 &2 because their both free

[amber mirage]

Games with Gold made it big

[winter flame]

its a real shame you cant upgrade retail 360 hard drives with any drive you like

USB works fine for most games but would be nice not to have to

you might as well just use a decent size USB stick btw, the bottleneck is gonna be USB 2.0

[left bone]

i loooove how microsoft manufactures things

[winter flame]

they fixed it for the Xbox One, and even Series X/S you can replace the internal SSD so long as you can copy the boot partition from the original

its just the 360 you cant

Series X/S does require a specific SSD model tho

[amber mirage]

I've considered it, but I'm gonna get a 2TB drive, just cause I don't know much space it would actually take to store everything, and a 2TB USB would most likely be more expensive than an external HDD

[winter flame]

yeah true

also USBs probably arent very reliable long term

[amber mirage]

Yeah

I remember having a 256GB USB drive back in 2010. Didn't last very long cause the connector got bent.

Was an insane amount of storage for a flash drive at the time though. Got it real cheap too.

[jolly willow]

Are we getting a new ranked playlist rotational tomorrow?

[dusky cedar]

Remember guys, with great power comes great responsibility as my uncle said

[left bone]

oh my god its spiderman

[ocean herald]

I think the 360 store is officially down

I bought tomb raider this morning, that was my last official 360 purchase

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[obsidian wyvern]

it should at the very least reset your rank

someone confirmed this, yes, but I'm curious if we'll get swat or something else instead of snipes.

[graceful inlet]

good night... tomorrow is a big day 😁

[hot star]

the Xbox 360 menu looks so depressing now

[unique osprey]

Hey are we really getting the haunted helmet tomorrow?

[bold sparrow]

Looks like it

Unless the above trailer is a very elaborate Dr. Who reference.

[pliant hatch]

only 32 dollars in a bundle probly lol

[pulsar cobalt]

😂

[fickle drift]

https://tenor.com/view/hey-who-turned-out-the-gif-20295296

[bold sparrow]

Personally I hope its in the Exchange for some ridiculously high price so we grind for it like we did back in the day.
But at the same time I really hope it isnt, so it doesnt spark a load of "Im gonna AFK this game" players.

Then again, you can grind for both Hero AND Haunted at the same time if you play right, so.

Wait, yep, its in the store.
People are already getting mad about it.

Lol. Stay mad, nerds. Its a bad helmet anyway.

[obsidian wyvern]

ugh I forgot about the afk problem

[bold sparrow]

It hasnt been too bad before and I dont honestly think it'll be too bad now.

most of the AFKs I see happen are low rankers who are getting stomped.

[meager linden]

If we're gonna grind from tomorrow's new operation then I'm in

[red hull]

Supposedly it is a shop item

Haunted, that is

[bold sparrow]

Yeah, that seems to be the word.
Theres logic too it.

[unique osprey]

Lame

Want the old days like reach where it was cr we had to earn to get armor pieces

[red hull]

missed opportunity for a grindable exchange item for sure. We'll see though, nothing set in stone yet technically

[bold sparrow]

There'll probably be more to grind in the Exchange anyway cause we got Spartan Points per game now instead of just one game a day.

[meager linden]

Want the old day

[fickle drift]

Funnily enough by putting it in a store bundle instead of at the end of Reach's max rank grind, it's a much more accessible helmet now.

[bold sparrow]

A further dilution of its "appeal" will help, methinks.

You know what I've noticed?

Not a single Hero I run into in BTB is wearing the MK VI armor. Its all other stuff.

[fickle drift]

Does it mean anything? No, but if you want to show how much you degen Infinite then you can wear your Chief cosplay.

[winter flame]

its not a cosplay, i am john halo

[unique osprey]

More accessible but not cool to see someone actually earn it.

[bold sparrow]

Thats what MK VII Chief and Watchdogs for.

And in truth Watchdogs a better reward than Haunted was cause Haunted is freakin ugly.

[pulsar cobalt]

Because who want's to run around with a kit that can only change coatings

[fickle drift]

Right, if we're gonna call back to Reach, then think of the Elite Major or the Recon UA, both of which could't be earned.
Or the orange Flames for buying the Legendary Edition.

[unique osprey]

In your opinion 😂

[bold sparrow]

Its a skull slapped inside a perfectly good Pilot helmet, ruins the whole point of the Pilot helmet.
Which, relatedly, was to be SPI related.

Now of course, we have Veles, which is ALMOST as good, but its not quite the same...though the Pilot helmet does work closely enough.

Actually if you wanna make book cover accurate SPI you can get surprisingly close with Mirage...

Still waiting on a Kurt armor kit tho

[pulsar cobalt]

Please no more kits

[bold sparrow]

Id LIKE a full Onyx S-III look armor set, but they seem to have their own things designed and for the most part, the new stuff is all MK VII, Raksahsa and occasionally Yoroi.

[elfin glacier]

it wasn't cool in rech either

[bold sparrow]

So an S-III armor kit is probably the best we're getting.
TBH we dont have one for Mirage...

[elfin glacier]

"oh wow someone farmed grifball lobbies for a year straight"

[unique osprey]

Point is this game shouldn't have been a free to play game or else it would probably still be going strong. Instead we get micro transactions and now there's nothing to even grind for besides ugly armor

[bold sparrow]

We have like, four for MK VII, one for Chimera, one for Eaglestrike (which isnt even Eaglestrike, its grunt themed?!)

[pulsar cobalt]

It being paid would of made no difference lmao

[bold sparrow]

Heard it before, you got something new?
Come on man, break the mold.

[elfin glacier]

paying for online mp access is lame tyvm

[bold sparrow]

CODs Warzone paved the way for that methinks.

Also is Fortnite free to play or do you have to pay to access it too?

[elfin glacier]

the prices suck and the shop could be improved but paid cosmetics for free gameplay is a very good trade

[finite patrol]

Having nothing to grind for is why MCC is still better. Now they going back to the old ways with SP

Stuff to grind for is still lame

[unique osprey]

I mean sorry but it's the truth. Have you seen the numbers on how many people are playing this game? Since the start of the game they haven't even done anything game changing it's just recycled garbage

[bold sparrow]

Correction;
Thats your opinion

GOTEEEM

[elfin glacier]

in the first place reach's grind was about maximizing xbox live subscriptions and not some handout to gamers

[elfin glacier]

the capability leap from h5f to Infinite forge alone is staggering

[bold sparrow]

No one actually cared if you had it anyway.
My friend had Haunted. Wore it all the time.

Constant. Hate. Mail.

[unique osprey]

And now it's just maximizing profits with micro transactions?

[elfin glacier]

it's always been about profit

[bold sparrow]

I mean, thats what gaming has always been about.
They arent made for fun you know.

[unique osprey]

Back in the day it never felt like It though

[finite patrol]

Selling games vs selling cosmetics

[bold sparrow]

Oh trust me, it did.

[granite sky]

Games r for fun if fun they earn money

[elfin glacier]

because you were 10 and your parents paid for xbox live and map packs

[bold sparrow]

Nah, he might actually have been young enough to pay for his own stuff later on if his profile join dates accurate.

[granite sky]

Games r made for fun by good high quality nerds

[unique osprey]

Actually been in here before but left cause nothing new but thought I would join back to see what the new event was tomorrow but same old same old. Boring stuff in the pass and cool stuff in the store

[elfin glacier]

ok

[bold sparrow]

Neat, you can go back to not playing the game and malding over it, sounds like.

[pulsar cobalt]

Well this is potentially the pass stuff 😂

[elfin glacier]

talked to 343 devs at worlds and can confirm

[pulsar cobalt]

with the chance of 1 of the items being the operation purchase 😂

[elfin glacier]

ngl it was crazy talking to uny, ske7ch, Michael Schorr, etc

[unique osprey]

Haha I definitely will. Sad to see a franchise get killed off by lazy devs. Focus on forge but no one even plays the game to care and plus half the stuff doesn't even look good

[pulsar cobalt]

Oh no what are we gonna do move on if you don't like the game

[elfin glacier]

mfw the multimillion dollar franchise is le dead

[steady jolt]

All 3 are awesome people. I love chatting with Michael

[finite patrol]

All it takes is a little apathy

[bold sparrow]

You going again this year? We should meet up.

[elfin glacier]

loved talking with all the 343 peeps there

[steady jolt]

I actually miss chatting with Brian, it's been too long

[bold sparrow]

I need to get better at putting faces to names, I meet all kinds of people at Worlds and chat but I can never remember whos who

[elfin glacier]

possibly

[bold sparrow]

Keep a look out for a Granular styled pin, me and a couple of other dudes with the coating are trying to go as a group.
You cant miss us XD

[worldly badger]

the haunted helmet seems to be part of a bundle presumably a shop one

[granite sky]

I'm thinking I'll go for the mp helmet if it's part of the pass

The one at end via xp i get confused if pass is the word now

[worldly badger]

operation pass?

Seems like haunted might be earnable then

[bold sparrow]

Eh, we can wait like, 22 hours

Less, actually, 21 now.

servers offline again.....day before the update?

[lament rain]

Yeah I need some help :/

[dire kindle]

ya is the servers offline?

[fickle drift]

i got that halo reach forge trailer stuck in my head where they first showed it off and were like "it takes a while to fly from 1 side of the map to the other!

[trim saddle]

its a bit silly they drop the operation trailer at the same time as the operation IMO. Id like a bit of a buildup and they drop it today.

[fickle drift]

this is dumb might as well just update it today since theyre offline

[narrow cloud]

Why is there always a daily server outage?

[twilit vector]

Anyone less having trouble getting halo infinite to work

best halo game ever stop lying

what is more reliable, halo infinite or a boeing 737

even on the halo twitch channel I got banned from chat because I ask if the twitch drop coating are also for the yoroi armor, poof got banned from halo chat 😦

News cycle and lack of other stuff to do. Emotional reaction keeps you awake and alive rather than in the grey haze of reality

[twilit vector]

Yeah whats up with that

[fickle drift]

found a game

[void magnet]

Might even just be a ‘shop bundle’ in the API idk how exchange stuff shows up in there

why is the rum gone

have to wait 14 days so I can send a report on it

Because IGN is an entirely reliable source that hasn't been bought out since the 360 days

Remember when IGN said MAG would be "the biggest hit game in years" and "would have a population in the millions?"
Remember MAG at all?

I barely do, lol. I only remember it exists because my high school friends swallowed the paid for hype, and then realized, shocker, a 200 person game on the PS3 isnt sustainable.

[nocturne zenith]

welp 😔

[bold sparrow]

Gaming journalism, as a whole, stopped being reliable well over a decade ago, when people realized no one actually wanted to sit down and read.

If your grasping to rumors and hope, you got more personal things to worry about than gaming.

Cause theres a lot more dangerous stuff out there that'll take advantage of that opening to pry something open and take what you have.

Killed my clone darckaos in destiny 2 pvp today.

He was put to shame

[obsidian wyvern]

someone pick a film of these 4

[pulsar cobalt]

Saving private ryan

[obsidian wyvern]

ffs lol, that was the one film I had at the bottom of this list. that it is then

[steady jolt]

Seconded

[rigid gull]

Tropic Thunder!

[steady jolt]

2nd choice would be Once upon a time, great film

[rigid gull]

https://tenor.com/view/tropic-thunder-robert-downey-jr-kirk-lazarus-survive-survival-gif-4959255

[obsidian wyvern]

I've watched the film before but I can't remember anything about it so I had to put it back on the list

[bronze breach]

So kang storyline just abandoned now huh

[nocturne zenith]

did you buy the dlc lmao

[bronze breach]

Yeah for sure

[nocturne zenith]

niceee

[bronze breach]

Final shape is awesome compared to lightfall

I have halo's battle rifle in my vault

[safe island]

I’ve decided that Master Chief and DOOM Slayer are best friends and enjoy “smoke” breaks(Neither does so) while talking about their adventures

For continuity issues, MC was either in Cyro or on a ring when the Demons happened. Very simple

[void magnet]

Anyone else hyped for GOTY releasing in a few days

(I’m talking about World of Goo 2)

[twilit vector]

I wouldn't exactly call ign the most reliable source

[pliant jewel]

real

[fickle drift]

Real

my name changed oml😂

[covert dove]

[safe island]

They should go on a mission sometime

[fickle drift]

That would be cool

[safe island]

DS would be perfectly equipped for the Flood

And the Banished would be but insects beneath his feet

[twilit vector]

Alright so haunted is a shop bundle
Operator is most likely to pass item
So umm
What will mp be in

[pulsar cobalt]

Haunted might be earnable

Operator and MP seem like they are in the pass

[twilit vector]

So with ghost of reach bundle..
I wonder if there finally adding in gunginer shoulders ( would be nice if there exchange items or just free )

[pliant jewel]

Gunginer?

[twilit vector]

I say free since last time we say it it was grey wich are typically defult items

[meager linden]

Only 3 ranks left to onyx (right now diamond lt.colonel)

[red hull]

you are getting close to being halfway to hero.

[meager linden]

After I reach the onyx I wanna take rest

Like for one week or two

[cedar turret]

You might not want to do that. I've heard there were ghosts on onyx

[granite sky]

painful oof

[hasty zinc]

it's IN the ring

first time I've seen that

[granite sky]

seems like a rough location for a moon would that be absorbing plentiful space rock impacts

[river sphinx]

360 shops closed

[amber mirage]

The gas giant liked the moon, so it put a ring on it

[shell grove]

if they just scaled prices of shop items to allow for purchase of every item with spartan points, infinite will instantly be a much better game and I will have only 1 problem with it... no grifball. too bad this will never happen, even if the game is retired and they do the same with the next game

[left bone]

uh huh

[pulsar cobalt]

There's literally a ball in the game so grifball was clearly kinda planned at some point

[shell grove]

yeah, it's a shame that like all the unreleased content we know of, it's been in the game's capabilities for a while

[obsidian wyvern]

is anyone's discord mobile app causing channels of yours to disappear

[cedar turret]

I don’t know I really haven’t watched tv outside of football in years

But discord is having issues

https://discordstatus.com/

[obsidian wyvern]

seems like they fixed it, I wasn't able to open the app on desktop either

[gloomy pond]

Halo Infinite is having issues searching matches rn?

[fickle drift]

what time does the update go live to download on XSX?

[lime cedar]

My friends and I are starting halo 2 and it is their first time playing it

[obsidian wyvern]

[pulsar cobalt]

[obsidian wyvern]

[fickle drift]

update goes live in about < 17 hours for me

so i guess we cant download the game update ahead of time

[obsidian wyvern]

don't think we ever get the option to

Its the Elite 2, it says so in the link.

[gusty wind]

no mans sky?

[urban warren]

Does Halo MCC still get bug fixes or is submitting a bug report a pointless effort?

[lime cedar]

even if it did its 343 they wont give a crap

[spiral solar]

@rocky oasis how was your day today

[pulsar cobalt]

Do you not read rules

[bold sparrow]

Presumably not with a nametag like that...

[urban warren]

Sorry? I was just asking since I had heard that MCC was being updated anymore but was hoping I had heard wrong.

[narrow cloud]

Its been 10 minutes and i have still not found a ranked game on Infinite

More like 20 tbh

[pulsar cobalt]

No not you i was replying to that guy above me

[urban warren]

What's everyone's favorite mission in each game?

[fickle drift]

is there a hardcore halo reach server / community

[cedar turret]

There is a sadcore halo reach server

[safe dawn]

Ce: maw, bc warthog run, h2: whenever tartar sauce showed up, (i pubstomped him) h3: warhog run i guess, it annoyed me but it was alright. H4: as much as i hated it, jet mission, bc flying fun. H5: running down the guardian back, bc its the closest we'll get to playing through the intro cutscene. Infinite: none, they're kinda just boring. Reach: havent played them all. ODST: havent played any

[urban warren]

Should definitely check out ODST. Underrated title

[safe dawn]

I would but no gamepass

[strong oxide]

does somebody wanna play CE legendary co op with me?

[safe dawn]

#lfg-campaign

[strong oxide]

mb

[fickle drift]

yeah why not

[urban warren]

Also CE: 343 Guilty Spark for the excellent build up to and introduction to the Flood. 2: Great Journey or Outskirts. Epic showdown between Arby, Keyes and Johnson vs Tartarus. 3: Storm. 4: Composer because Mantis, 5: Escaping the planet before the Guardian goes off and Infinite: Second to Last Boss fight

[fickle drift]

lemme turn mcc on rq

[granite sky]

he's trying to slide in his dms

[safe dawn]

[sand nest]

Would Have Been Great If 343 Could Have Finished The Bugs As Well Making All Campaign Cross Play Supported For Halo MCC

[fickle drift]

yo i just realized my memory usage goes to 100% . i have 16 GB of ram but when i play on mcc i use 100% of my ram. how do i fix this ? i have a good pc

my game stutters horribly, it lags, its borderline unplayable. (playing halo reach on mcc, dont have anything else running in background)

[sand nest]

Its Not You Its The Game I Have 64 Gig & With 85-100% On Multiple PC's

[fickle drift]

so what do i do

[sand nest]

Its Hard To Say. Some Days Its Fine & Others It Won't Start When I Have A RTX4080 On One PC But This PC With A RTX4090 Crashs More Than It

I Always Have To Use One Driver Before Whats On Nvidia's Site

Well If Its True That Halo MCC Is Coming To Playstation I'm Sure The Game Will Get A Update

[slender basalt]

Kinda weird that 343 has an official discord server, I wonder if the staff in here also hate halo

[granite sky]

How much VRAM do you have, its diff than RAM

[smoky token]

No one here or at 343 hates Halo

[slender basalt]

Lol, that's the funniest thing I've heard all day

[granite sky]

🪤

[smoky token]

true

[slender basalt]

No one at 343 hates halo

Right

[twilit vector]

Well ones of them hates guns
According to there Twitter/x post

I won't say who they are you can figure that out yourself

[slender basalt]

lol, I remember seeing that

He is a producer right?

[twilit vector]

Lead producer i think it said

[slender basalt]

Lead producer, didn't know that part

[twilit vector]

Well been a while since i last read about it

Been to busy wacthing Ubisoft just tick off the Japanese community more and more

[slender basalt]

Yeah, that's been pretty entertaining to watch as well

So do the staff in here actually support 343?

[twilit vector]

Especially when it was found out the so called historian .. actually faked everything

[slender basalt]

Yeah, they were mixing up chinese stuff in it to from what I heard

[twilit vector]

Cant wait for the game to come out just to see how the community reacts to it

[slender basalt]

It's going to flop so hard

[twilit vector]

Like they poured the gasoline
I'm just waiting for the lightshow to begin

This will definitely be remembered in gaming history

[slender basalt]

Who knows maybe Ubisoft will actually learn something, although this is Ubisoft so who knows

[twilit vector]

I just remembered they are also making ghost recon....great

[slender basalt]

Actually forgot that franchise existed

Breakpoint was awful

[twilit vector]

I keeo forgetting since they canceled it so many times

One of there canceled ideas was a battle royal

I hope project over is actually good

[slender basalt]

Hopefully

Probably not though

[twilit vector]

Lets get back on topic with halo

So wich helemts are you most glad is returning tomorrow

Operator,mp, haunted

[slender basalt]

Dang they censor curse words? I guess I'll say it nicer, I'm just here to talk shis about 343 until I get banned. I lost interest in infinite a while ago so I have no idea what they're doing.

I hear the forge is decent though

[waxen grail]

Infinite is still fun for me but it’s just the updates not doing much

[slender basalt]

That's what I've been hearing

I tried infinite again a few weeks ago. I just can't get over their stupid micro transaction store

[waxen grail]

I don’t really care about the paid shop

At least the exchange has some good stuff

I do understand the frustration with the shop updates tho

[slender basalt]

I honestly wish they would have done something like what Bungie did with Halo reach

Or hell, even mcc

[scarlet swallow]

Hello

[waxen grail]

I don’t even know how things work with the big companies adding stuff that most people don’t like

As if they aren’t aware of the feedback

[slender basalt]

They just don't care

[waxen grail]

Hello there

[signal wedge]

I honestly think they should make more Halo games then just one every 5-6 years

You have one of the most amazing IP in gaming history and you're letting it die

Microsoft self sabotage fr

[slender basalt]

Yeah, honestly all they got to do to win back trust is drop 343

[signal wedge]

343 is not even the problem. It's just a studio that changed a lot since Halo 4

[slender basalt]

Strongly disagree, 343 is the problem

[signal wedge]

Why

[slender basalt]

They hire people, who don't like Halo. What more do I have to say?

Because honestly I could say a lot more

[signal wedge]

Source or what you say is bs

[slender basalt]

Source? My dude are you serious.

Try looking up anything relating to 343

[signal wedge]

So you are talking out of your butt. Alright

[slender basalt]

You're either gaslighting me fr, or you're actually living under a rock

[signal wedge]

you didn't mention a single source. No examples, nothing

well yeah the entire story development team was laid off by microsoft

that’s not really new news

[slender basalt]

You literally just proved my point

[smoky token]

what point is that

[slender basalt]

Anything I provide isn't relevant or good enough. Literally just said it.

Maybe not you in particular

But just 343 supporters in general

[smoky token]

…i didn’t say it wasn’t relevant or good enough

i said the news wasn’t new

or particularly unknown

[summer roost]

Does anyone else have problems trying to get into a game

[slender basalt]

Just because a piece of news isn't new doesn't make it's existence less important.

[slender basalt]

I think I saw someone say the servers are down

Idk

[summer roost]

I don't think so cause it's allowing to find a game it just throws me or one of my buddy's out

The photoshop is awesome too

[tidal bluff]

I cant figure out a 100% correct answer so i figured i would ask people in here. Is halo mcc no longer supported with nothing for the future just what it is right now? also is the same happening to infinite or is it still going strong? Thank you in advance

[waxen grail]

MCC is no longer getting updates but you can still buy it and play the campaigns and multiplayer
Infinite is not affected and is going as normal

Halo 2 is my least favorite of the original trilogy

[signal wedge]

my least favourite is CE (I didn't play it before)

[sharp aurora]

u gotta play it

[signal wedge]

the game was made before I was born

I don't think i will like it

[sharp aurora]

bruh it’s older than me too

I still love it

[frail hollow]

Happy birthday

[signal wedge]

i grew up with CSGO, teamfortress and Battlefield 3. i don't think i can go back to PS1 graphics

[sharp aurora]

it’s really not that bad

[weary coral]

Why is it when I attempt LASO, saving and quitting restarts the level 20% of the time?

I literally save and quit before I die, press resume and then I see the beginning cutscene.

This has happened 5 times already

[obsidian wyvern]

r u getting checkpoints

[weary coral]

yes

[obsidian wyvern]

I've only done odst LASO so far but it was fine for me

and Infinite didn't have iron

[weary coral]

I'm on coastal highway and it keeps happening to me around the part I drive the tank

[obsidian wyvern]

I feel so bad for you omg

[weary coral]

Its not even a difficult level compared to some of the levels on CE/2

[obsidian wyvern]

coastal highway was such a nightmare

everything else before that was mostly fine, it's just that last mission with bucks gunning

[weary coral]

I found a consistent way to survive all the warthog checkpoints

halo 2 is far worse

CE is the most difficult because it really relies on how good the enemies at shooting at you, halo 2 laso is much more skill involved

[meager linden]

CE are pretty easy on legendary

[weary coral]

we're talking about laso

[meager linden]

I didn't see it, I won't disturb you

[next shell]

the circle is now complete. when i left you i was but a learner now i am the master

[meager linden]

Sorry

[weary coral]

ur fine lmao

You have controlled your fear. Now, release your anger. Only your hatred can destroy me.

[weary coral]

It just happened again, jfc

every couple of save quits the mission restarts

[languid vessel]

salutations again fellow peoples

anyone else here into Doctor Who?

[jade gust]

There's a few people here into it

[languid vessel]

oh sicko!

[bronze breach]

Yez

[languid vessel]

im currently on Love and Monsters

i think that was the entire point

[bronze breach]

Oh so you just started watching? My bad

Deleted comment

[languid vessel]

nonono i have watched the lastest season, im just starting from the beginning too.

ive watched various bits and bobs on live TV, so im now going through all of hte classic episodes so i actually understand everything.

[bronze breach]

Ahh

[languid vessel]

currently on the latter half of s2 (10th doc)

[bronze breach]

I feel also 15 lost the ability to regenerate too imo with bigeneration. To conclude that story, I feel 14 and 15 going to remerge before 15's depature

He said his soul is split in half. So on a genetic level, he may not able to regenerate as a consequence of being split

[languid vessel]

okay i have a theory, may take me a little bit to type out

[bronze breach]

No problem

Love talking about who

[languid vessel]

one of the theories i heard was that the bigeneration was just a jump in time for the doctor.

14 goes on to travel with his old companion (forgot her name), and goes on more adventures, eventually leading to his death, where in that moment he will be zipped back to the bigeneration, where he becomes 15.

as doc said (dunno which one), he went through therapy, just in reverse, implying that he was able to come to peace through his journeys as 14 after the split, leading to all of his issues being resolved when he comes to 15, answering why he is so positive and charismatic now compared to 14, as many of his worries are now passed due to this aforementioned therapy.

[jade gust]

My take is there's now just two Doctors, I don't see them merging back into one another

Like, if one was The Watcher, I'd believe that there would be a merge, like what we saw when 4th became 5th

Though I hope that 14 is going by the name of John Smith or something

[languid vessel]

i could see that, but i think that it would make more sense having them just kinda become one again, as the bigeneration thing was a whole myth, which was possibly made true by the invoking of superstition in Big Blue Yonder with the edge of the universe.

[languid vessel]

i think he is, as thats what he went by when he was 10th. just calling back to when he was with sarah-jane

[bronze breach]

An alternative theory is that 14 will become the curator

[jade gust]

Made true by that and the Toymaker wanting to play a game with the next Doctor

I could see that

[languid vessel]

also do you not have slowmode???

[bronze breach]

We dont know how the curator came to be, with bigeneration, it could be his origin story

[languid vessel]

yeah thats another interesting theory

[jade gust]

Honestly could see RTD also having 14 regen into the Fugitive Doctor too before becoming the Curator

[languid vessel]

fugitive was before 1st doctor, thatwas the canon explanation from an interview i think

[bronze breach]

Then rtd is being wack. First he says 14 is parked then he says he is never coming back and is dead.

Smh

[languid vessel]

but it doesnt really make much sense because they still have the tardis looking like a police box>

BBC just loves david tennant too much

[bronze breach]

Matt smith also expressed interest returning to who but as the master. Would be an interesting take to see him use the face of his rival

[jade gust]

There's no way Tennant is never coming back, he begged to be in Big Finish back before he became 10 because of how much he loved the show

[languid vessel]

i cant not think as matt smith as the doctor, made it really confusing when i watched morbius with some mates from school

[fickle drift]

Just something you need to adjust to. Like Tennant as Kilgrave in Jessica Jones.

[languid vessel]

i have never heard of that - im in australia and i dont think that show ever aired here

[fickle drift]

Great show, the first season anyway.

[languid vessel]

doesnt help that ive only got netflix and disney+

gotta result to alternative methods to get the shows i want

[jade gust]

Jessica Jones is on Disney+

[obsidian wyvern]

it's on Disney+

[bronze breach]

Does 14th doctor tardis has a sutekh as well? Or has it been pushed to 15 tardis?

[languid vessel]

oh okay

[jade gust]

Pushed to 15's is my assumption

[obsidian wyvern]

it's the defenders saga under marvel. daredevil is part of it and it's probably my favourite live action show

[languid vessel]

no clue, suteskh has been a bit funky overall anyway

[fickle drift]

God Daredevil is good. Like, 'how tf did Marvel television produce that' levels of good.

[jade gust]

I haven't watched it in some time but I remember really enjoying it

[obsidian wyvern]

the only downside to daredevil is having to watch all the other shows so you can watch the defenders

[bronze breach]

Thoughts on rdj as doom?

[jade gust]

Though rest in peace Captain Cutter. Got his head smashed in by Kingpin with a car door

[languid vessel]

rtd xD

[fickle drift]

I haven't seen a more blatant showcase of desperation casting since Tennant coming back to DW, funnily enough. 😝

[bronze breach]

And they got Russo brothers back as well.

[jade gust]

At least with Tennant coming back, it was because he genuinely wanted to do a few more after rewatching a bunch of episodes during lockdown

[bronze breach]

Honestly should have recasted kang

[obsidian wyvern]

isn't Dr Dooms whole thing that he keeps the mask on all the time or smthn, so isn't it more just about rdjs acting than you seeing it's rdj?

[jade gust]

Kang is the easiest character to recast as well, given the whole thing with the character is that there's so many

[bronze breach]

Yeah it's more of voiceover for doom likely but may have his mask off once in a while

[jade gust]

Basically

[fickle drift]

I think, like all things Marvel at this point, it'll depend on the version they adapt.

iirc his mask was grafted to his face after the incident that granted him his powers.

[languid vessel]

only thing i know about dr doom is from the Lego Marvel videogame lol

[obsidian wyvern]

so then it's not a big deal at all to me. I get the desperation part but you're just getting a good actor back into the series again

[jade gust]

Doom also needs to have a commanding presence like Darth Vader has. Not sure RDJ can pull that off

[fickle drift]

I adored Doom in Earth's Mightiest Heroes, even if he barely shows up in that.

That's my definitive version.

[obsidian wyvern]

they finished off his story in Loki season 2

it's a bit funny how they went all in on him being Kang and then the incident happened

[fickle drift]

I think it's more wild that after building in the whole 'variant' shtick they decided not to recast him.

[jade gust]

I enjoyed that he broke into Iron Man's home just to talk to him about Skrulls in that show

Like, he could've just knocked on the door but decided that blowing a hole in the wall was better

[fickle drift]

He's great, I love how unconcerned he is with the Avengers, like they're just a distraction on the side to him.

[merry mason]

Man I need more halo mega bloks there's not enough 😭

[jade gust]

As they should be, Doom has a country of his own to run

[fickle drift]

https://tenor.com/view/dr-doom-doctor-doom-lightning-zap-zapping-gif-23095254

Hope they do him some justice. He's great in MVC3 as well

[jade gust]

Honestly, I have to figure out how he would factor into something that I have floating around in my head because I want to have Doom's status as a head of a country to be a key thing

[dark lance]

It is the sort of day where I tell FootedPanda how much I appreciate him.

[signal wedge]

Avengers would be so mid without the originals

[covert dove]

When your homeboy is gonna buy you a PS5 for your bday so you can spread democracy

[ocean herald]

i think i know why they brought back rdj, but it's a slight Deadpool 3 spoiler

[signal wedge]

Mid C U. although deadpool and wolverine was great

[ocean herald]

in general though, i feel like it's a miscast. would have liked to see someone new

[signal wedge]

I realize that was spoilers

from now on all MCU movies should be R rated.

[weary coral]

dude this is so annoying

Is there a fix for the laso restarting mission bug????

save quiting does not work like 50% of the time on laso odst..

[jade gust]

It survived without being R rated before, that's not the issue with the MCU

[signal wedge]

it was so weird hearing the F word comeout of everyone's mouth in an "MCU" movie 💀 . Glad they kept deadpool R rated but you're right the rest doesn't need it

[fickle drift]

Monchin down on a Fazbear footlong

is it just me or Disney is dropping straight DOG DOOKIE each movie?

[candid tusk]

So ready to be done with the workday and on to Infinite this evening. I've been waiting for VIP for too long.

[rare cedar]

[amber mirage]

I'm sorry but you're not on the VIP list. You'll have to wait in line with the rest of the rabble.

[fickle drift]

im currently trying to finish all halo games in legendary on pc (im still at CE) (halo 2 scares me so im staying in CE on purpose)

also halo reach scares me a lot,i can beat most levels in legendary but NOT NIGHTFALL

[obsidian wyvern]

nightfall is the easiest halo reach level

search up the forklift skip

[fickle drift]

^ You can basically run past most of the level.

[fickle drift]

oh well

i was fighting everyone off lol

also i js switched to controller the aim assist on these games is crazy istg i didnt play on controller for 5 years and it's so much easier

[hasty zinc]

KB+M players have the advantage

[left bone]

i stomp kbm players

[bright gull]

Not now with the aim assist it’s too broken ^

[hasty zinc]

no wait, controller players have the advantage

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/captain-america-i-understood-that-reference-look-back-gif-14556485

[hasty zinc]

THANK YOU

[bright gull]

I can’t wait to 180 turn in my Buffed banshee and exploit my movement over controller players

[fickle flicker]

i do well with m & k

[fickle drift]

i love when mcc dies and freezed my pc too

[fickle flicker]

cant drive a vehicle worth a damn but i do giht

anyone know when the update is release?

[hasty zinc]

usually around 1 or 2 PM Eastern

[fickle drift]

First time the Wraith's ever been down there

[hasty zinc]

they're adapting

[molten pelican]

one day they will learn to swim

[ivory hollow]

Any mods?

@hasty zinc https://discord.com/channels/471722331820130324/1258449696985190501

[obsidian wyvern]

why am I the rival LOL

such a low bar for you

[ivory hollow]

I need desperate backup

[jade gust]

Message modmail, that'll get things sorted

And also stop engaging with the person harassing you, it's not going to end well

[molten pelican]

tip: stop talking to them!

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bf63y.gif

[ivory hollow]

It's fun messing with them

[obsidian wyvern]

trying to figure out this skip is going well 🥴

[meager linden]

That scream💀

[molten pelican]

whats the skip for

[obsidian wyvern]

I hope they bring it back for the newer halos lol

[molten pelican]

halo 3 screams are amazing

[obsidian wyvern]

you can skip the bunker section with all the brutes on crows nest. right before the elevator with the jetpack brutes + pelican

[molten pelican]

crows nest is so long so il probably try this when i do halo 3 legendary

[obsidian wyvern]

woo ok now to get consistent

[molten pelican]

nice job

[rare cedar]

Ya ya that’s cool and all but the achievement won’t unlock unless you hear the Red Vs Blue easter egg

[pulsar cobalt]

Time for 343 to add a new achievement LASO NO SKIPS 😂

[fossil skiff]

H2 would probably be unbeatable in that regard

[hasty zinc]

no skips and movement speed halved

[safe dawn]

💀

h2 would be impossible

[fickle drift]

https://tenor.com/view/nope-danny-de-vito-no-gif-8123780

[jade gust]

Don't forget to add doing it with one hit point

[fickle drift]

halo 3 had fun gravity

[twilit vector]

I have a idea for a skull when 343 remakes the games

A skull that you earn on max legendary that allows you to use your multiplayer Spartan

I cant wait to get my mp helemt back

[jade gust]

Where did you hear we're getting remakes?

[fickle drift]

remakes where

[signal wedge]

Halo 1

[jade gust]

CEA isn't a remake, it's a remaster of the graphics

[obsidian wyvern]

I can't tell what I'm doing right

[obsidian wyvern]

lets gooo, kinda mastered it now so itll help a lot for laso

[fickle drift]

Good stuff. Jumping onto the Pelican to cut off the Jetpack Brute spawns is next. 🙂

anyone know what time ranks are gonna reset?

[trim saddle]

in either 3 minutes, or an hour and 3 minutes.

[obsidian wyvern]

should be in an hour's time

but the update should be in a few minutes

[fickle drift]

that might be why all the wait times are 2min+

[obsidian wyvern]

[cloud holly]

[fickle drift]

so in an hour damn okay

[trim saddle]

343 has jokes with that post lol

[hasty zinc]

lmfao

I would have also accepted an energy sword + truth

[trim saddle]

or emile

[hasty zinc]

or miranda with a spiker etc etc

[trim saddle]

Noble 6 and a cave

[cloud holly]

Ideally there should be an apology and free spartan points issued to make up for it. This is what R6 does normally. I believe Gears of War did this too.

[fickle drift]

dont see it on my XSX yet

[obsidian wyvern]

idec for making it up tbh, just would like them to acknowledge it faster

[pulsar cobalt]

Mark v b brim is here guy's in the exchange

[obsidian wyvern]

@winter flame

[stiff juniper]

Update just hit

Right before my BTB match started

[meager linden]

Ghost of Reach 75k Spartan points

[cloud holly]

ridiculous

[gloomy pond]

or 1800 cR

[cloud holly]

I like that R6 and Gears 5 constantly gives you credits everytime you play 247.

[hasty zinc]

is that a lot of spartan points?

(I have no reference)

[hushed forum]

YES

[fickle drift]

nah you can grind for it now , since youll get some points for each completed match

[stiff juniper]

That is a ton

[cloud holly]

absolutely ridiculous.

[hasty zinc]

at least it's an easier grind than getting it in Reach

[hushed forum]

THAT WOULD TAKE ME DAYS OF NON STOP PLAYING!

[obsidian wyvern]

yes

[fallen atlas]

I hope the skull changes colors with your visor I do not like that purple glow

[pulsar cobalt]

I thought if it's on the keyart it's in the operation so why is MP in the store ?

[fickle drift]

get to playin, spartan.

[tight remnant]

That was changed a while ago

[meager linden]

You wanted, receive, sign

[cloud holly]

i know it's a bait to get player numbers up but it's done really badly.

[granite sky]

whoa thnx

[cloud holly]

i'm not grating on 343 for this, it's shareholders and suits.

[obsidian wyvern]

over the last 3 passes you'd get 45k. about 12 weeks for another 12k, some daily points I guess.

over the last 3 months the average would be around 60k, and that's without spending anything

[hasty zinc]

welp, people wanted rewards to grind for

[obsidian wyvern]

LETS GOOO that means operator is in the op

[meager linden]

75k points for one helmet, that crazy🗿

[hasty zinc]

there ya go

[bold sparrow]

Acceptable!

[granite sky]

i may reach it by time next game releases im worst at grinding

[fickle drift]

you just need to complete matches

[hushed forum]

Ima guess that the haunted helmet would be in the shop for awhile longer after this season...

[obsidian wyvern]

100 per match... that's a looot of matches lol

[cloud holly]

is it 250 points per 24 hours or changed now?

[bold sparrow]

Guess we'll find out.

[hasty zinc]

steam update is live

[stiff juniper]

Mine's almost finished

[obsidian wyvern]

it won't even show up on my Xbox

[twilit vector]

What

[jade gust]

It's downloading for me right now

[pulsar cobalt]

This is how it was but by the looks of it i think it's not the case anymore

[jade gust]

Won't be playing though since I am currently down with the sickness

[hasty zinc]

oooh ah ah ah ah

[twilit vector]

I want my mp

[harsh vector]

why is haunted in the shop too

[obsidian wyvern]

I don't think it being in the key art ever meant it would be in the pass

[meager linden]

Woah
You can actually buy Ghost Of Reach bundle and get this helmet For 1800 golden points

[hasty zinc]

oh good, I'll probably just buy it

if it has other good pieces

[ocean herald]

the shop prices aren't crazy to me this time

[obsidian wyvern]

bruh it is

[pulsar cobalt]

These prices aint bad what

[hasty zinc]

I don't see the problem putting it in the shop too

gives players choices

[obsidian wyvern]

it goes against what they wanted to do

[twilit vector]

Dang it

[obsidian wyvern]

I didn't mean the prices

[fallen atlas]

Is the haunted helmet stuck with the purple glow? 💀

[obsidian wyvern]

343 just said they would make sure if an item was in the shop, it'd stay as a shop item or if it was free, it wouldn't go into the shop

[urban warren]

Tips for getting good at PvP or at least better? Preferably for Infinite but advice for older games would not be amiss.

[candid solar]

Damn 343 really out here giving me the memory holed brim for my birthday

[twilit vector]

Will mp ever go to the exchange

[pulsar cobalt]

No

[fickle drift]

hopefully ranks finally reset after it updates

no hopes tho

[tight remnant]

I prefer this TBH

It's like the start of earnable OR buyable that i've been advocating for since before infinite came out

[jade walrus]

woah, updated ui?

[hasty zinc]

technically the haunted helm has a currency cost

[pulsar cobalt]

It's finally cross-core

[hasty zinc]

that's the website

[obsidian wyvern]

that's waypoint

[jade walrus]

oh

[twilit vector]

....welp I'm never getting my mp helemt dang it

[quiet warren]

75,000 for the ghost of reach 😂😂😂

[fossil skiff]

More cross-core coatings now?

[meager linden]

Or 1800 golden coins

[tight remnant]

3 ne emblems too. 10 11 and 12

[pulsar cobalt]

Seems like the rest of the coatings are all cross-core

[twilit vector]

All coatings

So blood shadow now on different colors

[fickle drift]

11.2 gb update on my XSX

[meager linden]

Lol
They added stickers "10" "11" "12"for armour and weapons

[obsidian wyvern]

wait all the coatings??

youre right, everything is

not vehicles though 😔

[hasty zinc]

nah

[sinful karma]

Next time....next time they'll give Mark V Zeta in the exchange......

[hasty zinc]

there are still non-cross core coatings

[tight remnant]

Splendid work 343

[hasty zinc]

but there are a ton of them added, this is great

[twilit vector]

I hope they do vehicles and wepaons next
Cross core knee pads would be cool

[sinful karma]

Next time...

[obsidian wyvern]

this is showing up as crosscore but it isnt lol

[hasty zinc]

rev

[obsidian wyvern]

i dont have it 😔

[twilit vector]

Alright item cost 75k
So whats the math for that

[obsidian wyvern]

itll come to the exchange one day yesyesyes

[hasty zinc]

I know, that's why I posted it 😛

[obsidian wyvern]

4 months of just passes

[hasty zinc]

74k +1k

[weary coral]

hello

[fickle drift]

parade ground

[weary coral]

saving and quitting does not save progress on levels

[twilit vector]

....four months .... How the ... How is anyone going to unlock it then when the operation is over or will it stay in the exchange

[obsidian wyvern]

thats just by doing passes, theres weekly, daily and now 100 for each match

[flat moon]

Is the operation out?

[obsidian wyvern]

which is still a long time but yeah

and no it isnt

[weary coral]

I'll get a checkpoint, save/quit, resume the mission and it'll reset my progress. everytime, is there a fix for this?

[flat moon]

Damn

[obsidian wyvern]

campaign coatings are now crosscore

[narrow cloud]

The update is out

[fickle drift]

yeah they didnt reset ranks though

[hasty zinc]

nooooo 😦

[fickle drift]

and thats the main thing they were going to do and update weapons

[obsidian wyvern]

that should be in 20 mins rubiks

the playlists reset then

[fickle drift]

ok

[hasty zinc]

343 targeted me specifically by not making that coating cross-core

[meager linden]

I guess all coating now are crosscore

[fossil skiff]

Aegis isn’t 343 confirmed
