[steady wagon]

😞

[bleak shoal]

Well 343 will probably change these guns if they considered adding them so I can't whine

[steady wagon]

Ngl I whine constantly

Lmao

[bleak shoal]

Well, feedback is good I suppose lol

[fickle drift]

Lets say god forbid steve downes passes away, do yal think it would be a good idea to use his voice using ai for future games to keep his character going or do you think chief should respectively retire

Im torn on this idea

Cuz on one hand youre keeping his legacy alive and on the other its just idk

Morally cloudy

[signal wedge]

Recast

[meager linden]

Good morning Spartans

[dusk girder]

good night 😄

[fickle drift]

Thats like the worst thing they can do

[smoky token]

He is currently striking against doing this exactly

alongside the rest of SAG-AFTRA

[fickle drift]

Is he striking against ai replacing va’s

Cuz idk if he made the argument about using voices when the actor is gone

Like if they give permission for them to use his voice

I can see it totally working out

[heady wind]

anyone wanna play ranked infinite ?

[smoky token]

against AI replacing VAs and for AI replacing VAs after their departure or death

[fickle drift]

Damn ig chief really is gonna die when he dies

Kind of glad it will be that way

[mossy sequoia]

What if June went to go rescue noble 6 as the last mission in reach ?

[faint mantle]

When Mr. Downes dies, 343 will retire the Chief from battle in a book, where he will either die a warrior's death, or retire and become a diplomat.

Let's hope it doesn't happen for a very, very long time

[meager linden]

I guess it's better to not talk about that, I don't want to see Chief listed as MIA or KIA

[pale rune]

Just finished halo CE what an epic game from bungie.

[candid solar]

Kind of a surprise, didn't he have a different tune about his own voice being used for that a while ago?

Then again, people change their minds over time

[smoky token]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

whatever the case was he is actively striking right now

[signal wedge]

Nah. Disney is so dumb for not casting the winter soldier dude as Luke

Just move on, let it go and let someone else take over

[signal wedge]

Retired

[meager linden]

And what Chief would do, if he will be retired?
Waiting for peacefully death or what?
Any ideas?

[signal wedge]

Eat sleep, watch the news, lay on the sofa and play video games

Or he can become like what is Jun doing now

[meager linden]

https://tenor.com/view/very-nice-wow-sarcastic-face-whatever-gif-14364504

[meager linden]

We even don't know about Jun is still alive or not

[signal wedge]

He is

[jade sage]

anyone wanna play a coop run of 2 with me?

[signal wedge]

He's the one that told Spartan training officer about Laconia blowing up

[meager linden]

It's like reading coffee grounds, it's better not to think about it
Let's focused what we have right now

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah he's alive

unfortunately

[graceful inlet]

Good Morning.

[steady jolt]

Feel free to drop your suggestions into a new thread in #1076337363770417172 :)
Here it will just get buried pretty quickly

[slim loom]

Thank you I appreciate that, I didn't know where else to send it.

[steady jolt]

You bet! :)

[steady jolt]

@peak copper we don't allow advertising for paid services here

[ocean herald]

i think a better way to say it is, sag aftra is striking and as a member he's supporting them. if you're union you don't want to be a scab (obviously lol)

[peak copper]

But can I get someone to help

Or where to ask

[steady jolt]

We don't have a space here for that kind of thing, but you can probably find some good artists on socials like Twitter, Insta, Threads, TikTok, etc - don't have names to hand, but there are some good sites out there specifically for looking for paid artist services

Or people showcasing their work

[jade gust]

Jun is alive and works as a recruiter and trainer for the Spartan IV program. We do not have details about how he got off Reach though as he wasn't with Halsey when Fred and Kelly arrived at Castle Base

[steady jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/magic-space-magic-gif-14255718

[obsidian wyvern]

the Spartan training station he was on got blown up by an AI, which is what I think he's referencing

[fresh tangle]

yo, quick question, what would be the best bp to get money/item wise

[ocean herald]

you don't have any of them so far?

[fresh tangle]

I've been just been grinding free ones so far

thinking of buying the reach one rn

[ocean herald]

i forget which ones were just 50 lvls, but i'd suggest getting s1. it has 1000 points in it so you can then afford the second pass

so pay for 1 and get the others, so long as you don't spend the points elsewhere

[fresh tangle]

oh sweet, thats perfect, thanks man

[rare cedar]

Season 1 does not give credits back

Seasons after 1 do

[rare cedar]

^

[fresh tangle]

ah damn

thx for letting me know

[jade gust]

We don't know if he was on board when that happened. I'm inclined to believe he wasn't as I don't think people would be happy if he died like that and we weren't told until years later

[hasty zinc]

well some people would be happy

[fickle drift]

Hello yes that’s me. 😄

[amber mirage]

First we lose Jul, now Jun. What's next?

[candid tusk]

[candid tusk]

I think May is the elite that took out Foehammer. She seemed to be shouting a lot about them.

May'day to be exact.

[amber mirage]

Nah. She was just celebrating this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Day

It's why she couldn't pick Chief up. She was on holiday.

[hasty zinc]

I remember doing may day in elementary school

[amber mirage]

We never did in mine

[hasty zinc]

back in my day etc etc

[fickle drift]

Pretty sure he was apart of the training for spartan 4s

hes alive

Hey everyone again lol sorry I have a gaming server I been making so I’m always off and on lol 😂

[distant charm]

Hi guys 👋
first time in gen chat hehehe

Have you tried the Google Doodle of two days? It got me hooked

[forest lagoon]

Tell me how I threw my back out playing racketball but I didn't do anything at all and it just decided to seize up out of nowhere

[candid tusk]

Popcorn battle royale is wild.

[fickle drift]

[hasty zinc]

I can see that. I threw my back out sneezing.. twice

[candid tusk]

Rolled out of bed bad once and my back hasn't been the same since. lol

Holding back the tears on that lol, but yeah. Don't get old, kids.

[hasty zinc]

[forest lagoon]

I mean I've thrown my back out picking up eggs from my backseat once, but I felt the moment I tweaked it.
This didn't even have a "oops" moment

[rare cedar]

[lime wasp]

yo guys , so mcc is currently like only 11 bucks and i wanted to know if its worth buying

i know nothing about the games and i want to get into the franchise

[obsidian wyvern]

100%

$10 for 6 games and most of their multiplayers are still active

[light flame]

He’s telling the truth, I’ve been playing since I bought it

[lime wasp]

ight , ima buy it , thanks guys

[light flame]

anyone has an order for me to play the games in?

[hasty zinc]

CE, 2, 3, ODST, Reach, 4

[lime wasp]

what about halo 1, is ce halo 1?

[fickle drift]

CE is Halo 1

[lime wasp]

oh ic

i saw someone on reddit say to play halo 2 till regret makes the slipspace jump (whatever that is) and switch to ODST

then beat odst , finish halo 2 and start 3

[hasty zinc]

that's too much work

[lime wasp]

ic

[tight remnant]

Kind of like if someone said, watch episode 1, 2, clone wars, 3, rebels, 4, 5, 6

[granite sky]

never listen to reddit

[lime wasp]

💀

[jade gust]

Shout out to Halo 3 being speedran at GDQE this year. Always fun to see the wacky stuff they do in these runs

[jade gust]

That doesn't really work because ODST isn't really part of the story told in Halo 2 and 3. It's just a really well told story that shows us what New Mombasa was like in the immediate aftermath of Regret's carrier jumping

[hasty zinc]

well unless you count the legendary ending

[obsidian wyvern]

when is this

I was just watching goatrope doing CE the other day for gdq

[jade gust]

There was a VOD uploaded about an hour ago

Chronos is the one doing the run

What's going on

[hidden finch]

hi

[normal owl]

The salve for 14 hrs of being the driver, porter, and photographer is free-poured Glenmorangie. Made it up north!

[empty salmon]

I just got banned in Halo Infinite for hate speech?

I cant even play Custom games by myself

Bruh

[tardy thistle]

What u say then

[pliant hatch]

probly shouldn't repeat it here if true.

[bleak shoal]

Just say if you were being toxic to someone

Literally yes or no question

[slim loom]

Would it be possible to make a mod for halo reach that adds in weapons and enemies from odst? Like the silenced smg and battle rifle? And the brute spec ops? and if so could other weapons from other games be modded in as well like the regular smg? Also could the firefight maps from odst be modded in too?

[bleak shoal]

Probably. I mean reach models were put into a mod for halo 3 so it's definitely possible for the other way around

[empty salmon]

I dont admit anything

[bleak shoal]

Well your not admiting you did not do it

[empty salmon]

But i really needed that ban

[bleak shoal]

For how long anyway?

[empty salmon]

Until 10.10

[bleak shoal]

Alr

[empty salmon]

I did complain from it

[bleak shoal]

Well it is what it is

[empty salmon]

The ban was imo unfair

[empty salmon]

Say that to my mom who passed away 3 months ago

[bleak shoal]

I'm rly sorry I didn't mean to make an offense

But it's a video game anyway

[empty salmon]

I am having a rough week and i just snapped

I count take it anymore

[bleak shoal]

Well I know what it's like to lose a loved one

If you ever wanna talk more about it, my dm is open

Well I gotta go. Bye

[steep zealot]

If Megatron be shrunk to the same size as Atriox, do you think he would have a chance against him?

[bleak shoal]

Tbf, he still has the ability to transform

[steep zealot]

I think the fair comparison would be against Warden Eternal

[bleak shoal]

Idk

[steep zealot]

Since WE has ability to transform

[bleak shoal]

Into?

[steep zealot]

Imagine WE can also transform into a tank

[bleak shoal]

He can transform into what?

[steep zealot]

A Mlitary tank like a scorpion

[bleak shoal]

That's Canon lore?

[steep zealot]

Not really

Idk how would it turn out of the transformers verse merge with the halo verse

[bleak shoal]

So he can't transform

[steep zealot]

Megatron can but he won’t be big if he’s downsized

[bleak shoal]

It rly depends on which Megatron were talking about

[steep zealot]

The newest Megatron from the recent TF One franchise

[bleak shoal]

He's still inexperienced in combat compared to other iterations like the Bayverse or Animared where he's been doing this for centuries

[steep zealot]

I think we could use the TFP Megatron (Aligned)

[bleak shoal]

Prime?

[steep zealot]

He’s probably a better match against Artois if they’re on same size

Yep Transformers Prime

[bleak shoal]

The Bayverse would absolutely clap the WE. He uses everything at his disposal, he's brutal, and he's relentless

Not to mention the amount of firepower this guy has

[steep zealot]

The strongest competitor to Cybertronians would be Promethians and the Forerunners

Since I often see Promethians and Forerunners as Mechs

[signal wedge]

Optimus Prime would not stand a chance against the AR-15

[pulsar bluff]

why are non comp matches in mcc so sweaty

i get a 4v4 que

instantly guy with xbox mic screaming in my ear eating cheetos

[balmy slate]

Because 4v4 ranked is full of cheaters so no one plays it because if that. Whats also messed up is the 5 minute ban you get for leaving. If a hacker is in your game you're forced to stay there until the game is over cause if you leave you get a MM ban.

[pulsar bluff]

damn that many people cheating?

[balmy slate]

To a certain extent yea.

[pulsar bluff]

i feel like i hadn't come across a cheater yet but i suppose just lucky

[balmy slate]

Ive tried to make a Mcc MM ranked community where we host in house ranked pugs because of this issue. But marketing isnt my forte 😂

[pulsar bluff]

usually EAC titles are pretty good with that it seems

lots of stuff the game dev still has to do independently though, if you just plug in an eac module it's simply not gonna work nearly as well as with proper serverside heuristics

but not sure how you would enforce that in peer to peer

[smoky token]

Have you personally experienced this?

[pulsar bluff]

to be fair i hadn't played comp yet only casuals

i would assume comp is more extreme in that regard

[balmy slate]

Yes actually a few time not alot but enough to get frusturated over it ya know?

[smoky token]

so how many games does it happen?

like if you play 100 games how many will be like that

[pulsar bluff]

i feel like the alltime worst example i could think of was cs:go in 2018, with about at least 75% of pugs having at least one cheater

[balmy slate]

Not so much present in social game.

And ti answer your questions maybe like 3 or 4 but Im never able to really find a game to begin with. Not just becauze hackers but I also think people just dont really have that same passion for mcc ranked anymore. At least some younger generations. So its not all just hackers ya know?

[smoky token]

so you never see them in casual?

[balmy slate]

They are but barely. Ive only experienced em maybe 2 or 3 times total in like BtB halo 3

Id love to play ranked more though. I love halo. Like most of us here I have since I was a kid. Maybe im just getting old and cant deal with moving on to another halo game 😂

[smoky token]

I could never get into ranked for the older games

Halo 5 and Infinite were the only ones I ever tried ranked in

I got plat in Infinite and Diamond in 5, but I never really pursued higher ranks

I could probably get low onyx if I really tried

doubt I’d be able to hit high onyx tho, I’ve played with some of those guys and they are on a whole other level

[balmy slate]

Really? I loved them. I remember my first time experiencing em. Saw an ad for halo2 mlg on usa network and it was curtains for me afted that. Went to halo 3 mlg doritos combine in 2010.

Nice! Halo infinite I reached onyx

Last time I played was i think at the beggining of the year and hit D6 but stopped cause I go through hyperfixations alot 😂

[fickle drift]

Is 343 ever gonna fix this EAC

Did they make a statement or anything about when its getting fixed

[magic sluice]

Does anyone know if there is DLC for the Halo Infinite campaign, or do I just feel cheated that Halo Infinite would last 10 years?

[smoky token]

I think they might have made a statement at some point? But I do know that they are working on trying to fix it

[smoky token]

Microsoft laid off the campaign & story team

blame them, not anyone at 343

[magic sluice]

I was just asking, I don't blame anyone, I just wanted to know why perhaps many people, like me, wanted an expansion of the cut campaign.

I hope Microsoft lends the IP to Activision or whoever they consider best in this area.

[smoky token]

…why?

Microsoft needs to get their crap together and actually give 343 the time and resources to get good work done, not cut them off in every avenue and fire literally half their staff at the whims of inept shareholders

Not to mention the whole contractor policy

[obsidian wyvern]

tbf it is looking like it's gonna last 10 yrs lol

[magic sluice]

This is what I read from his 18-month contract.

[smoky token]

Every single failure Halo has had since Halo 4 launched can be directly attributed to upper management messing with aspects of different projects

[magic sluice]

I just hope that 343 is given the budget and what is necessary to continue Halo

[fickle drift]

Put simply microsoft tied 343s hands behind their back; removed an eye and forced them to work in the dark with their feet

I think campaign dlc was scrapped long before 343 had layoffs

My gf really likes purple and i cant find a single good light purple coating

Hold on just a second it isnt light purple but this space station coating hits different ngl

[magic sluice]

Thanks for clarifying my doubts, good night

[fickle drift]

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

[smoky token]

While there are absolutely 0 public facts that support this claim, I suspect you may be right

thanks Microsoft, what an amazing company!

:D

[fickle drift]

its obvious if u think about it they wouldnt need to push the prices so high for cosmetics if they were planning on selling a dlc for the game. I think the prices were increased to make up for the lack of income theyd get from the dlc

Its funny how people pivot the blame on bill gates when he isnt even ceo😭

Poor dude(well not really poor) u get the point

[smoky token]

i have no sympathy for the guy but yeah it’s weird to blame him

i don’t think he was involved with any aspect of the day to day at the point that Bungie got involved

[indigo lotus]

It was mentioned before the DLC campaign was never announced or promised.

But is it the final Friday?

[hasty zinc]

we're not that lucky

[obsidian wyvern]

[flat coyote]

Is there something wrong with competitive matchmaking on mcc?

[sullen orchid]

Genuinely sounds like a street fighter win quote

[still thistle]

Hello chat

[meager linden]

Just got onyx Staff Sergeant 3, little more left to Hero

[hasty zinc]

Goodnight

[meager linden]

For Hero left ~1083 matches

[meager linden]

It's still early

The only thing that separates me from the middle of onyx career rank is the gunnery sergeant

[royal silo]

Is there anybody who is willing to help me 100% Halo MCC ? There are a few achievements that I will need to boost.

[royal silo]

If so just DM me

[proven patio]

hii wsg

[candid tusk]

You're right, walruses do slap goats.

[near salmon]

Just wondering, did the effects of 60hz tick rate on enemy ai in mcc ever get fixed?

LNoS in reach is still especially brutal. And I feel like you def get melted even faster than normal in H2

[fickle drift]

They haven’t no.

[near salmon]

Dang

It's kinda a huge problem imo

[valid portal]

Oh so thats why halo 2 and reach feel way more difficult

[near salmon]

Yep they genuinely are

[valid portal]

I wonder if locking a framerate can fix it or not
Is it tied to the framerate?

[near salmon]

Nope sadly

[valid portal]

damn

[fickle drift]

They’re still runnable, and the tickrates introduced new strats that have been incorporated into them.

[near salmon]

You could play 60 fps or uncapped, that won't make a difference

[valid portal]

I can cap my framerate down to 30, albeit not via mcc's settings

[fickle drift]

That doesn’t change the tickrate.

[near salmon]

I mean yea I did finish them all, it was just noticeably far less fun

[valid portal]

Yeah....

[candid tusk]

I appreciate that web discord has added a hotbar for emojis for me.

[near salmon]

Long night of solace is just stupid having to kill 1 seraph at a time then dip to recharge

[valid portal]

Why did they increase the tick rate to 60hz in the first place, was it because of the gearbox port of ce and 2 being at 60?

[candid tusk]

Gamers can't play on anything lower than 60 or their eyes bleed.

There's probably a proper explanation that isn't mine though.

[valid portal]

me playing the entirety of mgs3 and mgspw at 20fps

[candid tusk]

Clearly not a capital G Gamer

Enjoying video games for their other qualities? Unthinkable.

[trim saddle]

man i almost feel bad for people who need to play on the newest tech and will self destruct if not.

[fickle drift]

Wanting standards in performance is wrong apparently.

[near salmon]

I honestly think halo 2 uncut somehow fixes it or it's just that you get more shields idk

[valid portal]

While I do prefer higher framerates over fidelity
There's more quality in a game than just fidelity, framerates and frametimes

[fickle drift]

I’m not sure why tickrate was affected when bumped to 60 but not when variable refresh rates above it were, going back to the original point.

[valid portal]

Although 20fps is genuinely awful on anything that isn't a handheld

[fickle drift]

And some tickrate related issues, like the fire rate of guns for the player in H2 have been fixed.

[trim saddle]

i just like videogames in general. the experience varies with what story or theme they have.

[fickle drift]

Others like the recoil of precision guns in ODST haven’t.

[candid tusk]

Standards are only cool when they don't break continuity of mechanics in a port.

[valid portal]

same
Although I play them for the gameplay too

[near salmon]

Yea ik that was. Elites mowing me down in .5 sec tho. I feel like it's usually 1 full sec

[valid portal]

I feel like my shields get melted in an instant in halo 2 heroic, let alone halo 2 legendary

[fickle drift]

I think the fire-rates of bombardment weapons were broken in Reach as well.
I.e. the Concussion Rifle, Fuel Rod and Grenade Launcher Turret.

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[vocal parrot]

Spartans

Never

Die

[glossy whale]

Hello

[meager linden]

They MIA

[fickle drift]

11 minutes that time.

[halcyon comet]

when i play chun-li on the old streetfighters she definitely the strongest woman

[sage orchid]

Hello, yall good?

[fickle drift]

Nightwing

[sage orchid]

Well, now that term has already been discontinued and all the spartans were classified as MIA while dead have been updated to their true status

[wise pecan]

Hi

[valid portal]

I say the same thing about my kerbals in ksp

Poor Valentina crashed into the surface of duna

[molten schooner]

How do you make your reticle smaller

[meager linden]

I guess I need to be muted that I will for sure go to sleep

kat isn't my favourite Spartan look out of noble team but this is by far their cleanest figure in the series

[meager linden]

Kat as toy: Perfect
Kat in game: 💀

[obsidian wyvern]

the exclusive edition should let you put the needle through her helmet

[elfin glacier]

there's always methods

https://tenor.com/view/power-drill-billy-butcher-karl-urban-the-boys-weapon-gif-17866110

[meager linden]

I mean her team support, especially to disabling AA guns

She do nothing, like mannequin staying and talking

And I don't want talk about her driving skills

[fickle drift]

Genuinely Kat's less of a hinderance than Jun, I'll die on this hill.

You can mitigate Kat by just, not letting her drive? Jun on the other hand will randomly alert enemies to you in Nightfall.

[obsidian wyvern]

pain tryna run through the first section with buildings when he does that

[hardy plover]

Yo

[jade gust]

I just wanna sneak by with active camo. Jun please stop being so trigger happy, you're the sniper of the team

[valid portal]

a first glassing directly into her skull

[bold sparrow]

Why would you ever let her drive anyway, the AI has auto-lock for vehicle weapons. She never misses.

Everyone knows the strat for Sword Base;
Kat on the gun, Marine given the rocket launcher that spawns on the hill to the right from where the Wraiths drop in. Keep the Marines AR and your Target locator.
Go right to the AA gun first, clear that out. Stop at the edge and drop one of your locator shots on the Elite on the roof. Move in and kill everything else with the Hog. Grab the DMR on the way out.

Turn the corner and go to the coms base. Park, kill Revenant with target locator. Clear up everything else with Hog.
Turn on the COMs dish, swap to the Gauss hog. Drive into base.

[fickle drift]

I mean I generally try to save the Troop Hog and avoid using Kat altogether but sure

[meager linden]

Ok
See you all tomorrow

[candid solar]

Oh, mine is always just 'steal
Wraith'

[ripe harness]

Is it bad I like Halo 4 and 5, tho I like Halo 5 for its multiplayer not its campaign.

[granite sky]

Is it bad I like chocolate 🍫

[candid tusk]

All things in moderation.

[candid solar]

Yes, horrible. You aren't a true Halo fan. :>

[steady jolt]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-4-halo-halo-arrest-him-halo-del-rio-lieutenant-arrest-that-man-gif-17775868661155889686

[ripe harness]

But I still think Halo reach and odst are the best, I'm just playing all the games for the first time and I think personally halo 4 and halo 5 aren't that bad

I personally don't like infinite campagin is a big change considering it's a free roam type of deal

[steady jolt]

4 and 5 are great games. I actually prefer them to most of the older games tbh. 2 and ODST were super fun

[ripe harness]

Chocalate is peak btw

I wonder how 343 games are gonna go about future halo games idk if it's gonna get better or worse

[amber mirage]

https://tenor.com/view/chocolate-spongebob-fish-rage-love-chocolate-gif-4938413

[candid solar]

Nope, not a true fan, sorry. Just like how me hating Reach makes me not a true fan.

[ripe harness]

You don't like reach, what halo games do you like?

[candid solar]

Does it matter?

[ripe harness]

Naw, just curious what you like

[fickle drift]

Lol why does mnk have aim assist. I ain't complaining tho

[obsidian wyvern]

because kbm players felt disadvantaged for the most part

[hollow sky]

dont knock it xD

we need it

[fickle drift]

I love it I just snap onto people so easily xd

[obsidian wyvern]

I don't see them removing it, especially since there's a toggle now to switch off AA

[hollow sky]

yeah but the "magnet" isnt as strong as it is on controller, but still helpful once you understand it

[fickle drift]

For a second I thought I was just a god in halo but no it's aim assist

[obsidian wyvern]

bullet magnetism shouldn't change based on input

it'd just be that aim assist is lower on mouse for obvious reasons

[north obsidian]

Is it bad that I miss playing as a elite

[pulsar heron]

good evening gamers 💪 i see we're having the normal conversations in here

[spare juniper]

i feel ya

[north obsidian]

What about assassination?

[spare juniper]

I miss those too

the animations were sick

[balmy slate]

Ayo what it is gang? Hows everyones day going?

[tight remnant]

would have been great to have assassinations to see our armours more often too

Actually I can think of an assassination where our AI pops up in front of the enemy spartan's helmet, 'blocking his view' so our spartan then finishes the assassination animation, a good way to see our AI more too

[north obsidian]

That would be cool

[viral dune]

Wanna know what else would be cool

[tight remnant]

Hot orange juice?

[hasty zinc]

no that would be hot not cool

[viral dune]

Hot oj assassination

[north obsidian]

😂

[tight remnant]

Logical

[viral dune]

Would be cool to see an animation where ur Spartan just pours a looooooooot of hot oj onto the enemy Spartan and it ends up dissolving them

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/tillson-halo4composed-gif-20753985

[viral dune]

Yes something like that

But hot oj

[north obsidian]

How do you think elite would look doing assassination

[fickle drift]

Reach has Elite specific assassinations

Where's the Spanish chat?

I'm new

[fickle drift]

#español

[fickle drift]

Thank you

Now I can talk with both English and Spanish speaking people

[fickle drift]

Halo infinites characters look more like quake characters. God I miss quake live

[valid portal]

Me when my house is 2F above 71F

[north obsidian]

I love the ODST helmet

[valid portal]

Didn't it also have unused brute assassinations
Although I've seen people do it every once in a blue moon so might either be a bug or rare event

[jade gust]

You just need to hold melee while behind Brutes to assassinate them

[noble wyvern]

What I heard from mint blitz that there adding a 3rd person mode to inf from a video like a few months ago

[fickle drift]

Are there bots in quick play or is everyone just bad like me?

[north obsidian]

You know it bot if has ODST in clan name

[fickle drift]

I think Brute assassinations are contingent on them not being aware of you

Wow that's nice no bots i love this game

[north obsidian]

But I do rock the ODST clan

[valid portal]

Oh
So that's why it's rare to me
People I know never hold down the button let alone sneak behind brutes

[north obsidian]

Do people still play halo reach multiplayer?

[obsidian wyvern]

on MCC yes

[fiery lynx]

HOW DO I DO THE SKIP THING IN KEYES I HEWRD ABOUT IT EARLIER BUT IDK WHERE IT IS OR HOW U DO IT AND IM ON THAT PART OF THE GAEM NOW

[fiery lynx]

yeah I get invited for customs sometimes

[steady jolt]

Step 1: turn off your caps lock

[fiery lynx]

why is my name smilinglizard

[steady wagon]

I'm gonna halo until she blows me away

[fiery lynx]

Lmao

[steady wagon]

Because only the strongest can survive

[fiery lynx]

Guys why is my name SmilingLizard

[graceful inlet]

Good night

[steady wagon]

Because that profile name is 🔥

[steady jolt]

Because of a previously set name, our bot auto changed it

[fiery lynx]

Is mommy pfp cool

[fiery lynx]

turn on the mentions big goofy

[fiery lynx]

Wtf is that autocorrect I meant my

[steady wagon]

Wort wort wort my fellow halo players

In Ohio? 😱

[fiery lynx]

Yes my rizzla

[fiery lynx]

how do I do the thing in Keyes where u can do it faster do I need to change the difficulty to heroic

[steady wagon]

When you first saw halo, where you blinded by its majesty?

[tranquil sleet]

is there is any news on the next halo? Just replayed infinite again and im optimistic 343 will learn from this (the game is already good but could improve) and the next game will be great

[fossil skiff]

Future stuff being worked on, nothing announced yet though. And probably not for a while.

[tranquil sleet]

damn thats sad

hopefully we get it before GTA 6 lol

[hasty zinc]

probably not

GTA 6 comes out in 2025

[tranquil sleet]

it got delayed again

[hasty zinc]

officially or just rumors?

[tranquil sleet]

still 2025 but later 2025

[tranquil sleet]

yeah its real

[hasty zinc]

oh it's fall 2025

[tranquil sleet]

tbf idc about gta 6 i never found rockstar games that great

[hasty zinc]

I see nothing about a delay

the original trailer only said 2025

and rockstar said it's fall 2025

[fickle drift]

Why is there no slide canceling this is unplayable 😠

[tranquil sleet]

wha..?

[fickle drift]

Is just joking

[maiden lark]

Dumb question. So I am play Halo 3 on the MCC and I am the part where you get to fly the Hornet. How do you ascend? I’ve tried everything and I’ve even looked online and it says use the right stick and when I do nothing happens. It’s been awhile since I’ve played 3 and I never had this problem before

[tranquil sleet]

slide cancelling useless anyway

[shell moon]

Huh? Is your stick broken if not then try switching controller mapping.

[maiden lark]

My right stick is fine cause I can still use it to look down my scope expect to ascend in a hornet apparently

[fickle drift]

Halo infinite + Series S + MNK 🔥

[fiery lynx]

How do I change the difficulty in the middle of a level in mcc

Mm

[shell moon]

You’ll have to leave the game and change the difficulty from the menu unfortunately

[fiery lynx]

Will it restart the mission

[tranquil sleet]

series X way better

[fickle drift]

I buy whatever's cheapest and series s is great hardware for the price

[tranquil sleet]

series s has no disc drive and is worse

[tranquil sleet]

thats a bad idea

[fickle drift]

People who care about a disc drive are lame, not up for debate

[tranquil sleet]

i want to be able to play my games?

[tranquil sleet]

also its not just a disc drive its just less powerful

and tbh i like playing games, which is what a disc drive lets me do

[fickle drift]

The console is powerful enough, that's all that matters. I'm someone who's more than willing to even play games at 30 fps, I've done it for many years

[tranquil sleet]

you like 30fps? oof

30fps feels wrong, since its 2024 and not 2004

(2004 was like halo 2)

[fiery lynx]

what's wrong with 30 fps

Why do you need more

[tranquil sleet]

it feels stuttery

its not smooth you can litterally see the frames jumping

[fiery lynx]

no you can't bro

[obsidian wyvern]

yes

[tranquil sleet]

yes, i can bro

[fiery lynx]

Ur brain rotted from 800 fps bro 😭

[tranquil sleet]

sorry your eyes are bad and mine arent? idk what to say

[tranquil sleet]

how the hell am i reaching 800fps

[shell moon]

Yes.

[fiery lynx]

How do I grenade jump across gap in Keyes I can't do it

[tranquil sleet]

Ur brain rotted from asking for help in every possible situation bro 😭

[fiery lynx]

I asked one question bro

[tranquil sleet]

3*

[fiery lynx]

No

2 bro

[tranquil sleet]

How do i change the difficulty.
Will it restart the mission (the game litterally says it will).
How do i grenade jump. (you just bad)

[fiery lynx]

👅

Nvm I turned on the 2x bigger explosion skull

[tranquil sleet]

oh hell no

pls dont cheat, play the game normally first

[fiery lynx]

That ain't a cheat bro

[tranquil sleet]

it kinda is

[fiery lynx]

And I have

[tranquil sleet]

or its an easy mode

[fiery lynx]

Bro I'm already at legendary

thats halo now?

[obsidian wyvern]

you have to watch for 10 hours for the coating, didn't think they could get worse than 9

[faint mantle]

Because twitch removed the ability to have drops exclusive to the Grand Finals

[tranquil sleet]

then watch it

[obsidian wyvern]

don't see why that changes it to become this much

[faint mantle]

Engagement ig

Just leave it muted on another tab like you always do lol

[obsidian wyvern]

asking for too much, no other game does it for this long ¯_(ツ)_/¯

even 3 hours was a lot in comparison

[radiant maple]

h

10h 😵

[fickle drift]

Why do people not like halo infinite?

[fiery lynx]

Ong it's peak

[stiff solar]

Idk, the campaign is quite different from previous Halos but personally I love it. Multiplayer is great rn as well ^-^

[fiery lynx]

Halo 4 flood sound alululu

[fickle drift]

I looked up videos on YouTube and found so much hate for the game, it's so fun so idk what people are on about

[fiery lynx]

I like grapple hook thing

I have a 20 day war thunder streak

[safe dawn]

Why is everyone in matchmaking a jerk today?

[fiery lynx]

Why did they remove the player squad vs bot squad mode

[safe dawn]

Of the two people ive matched with, both have been doing nothing but but being jerks bc i wasnt carrying or was having a bad game

[safe dawn]

So people cant use it to cheese career rank

Also you get literally the same experience in a custom game

[fiery lynx]

I need xp but I suck at game

[safe dawn]

Well uh, your only option is to get good then

[fiery lynx]

how be better

[safe dawn]

Practice with weapons in the academy range, make sure you watch your radar, basically just apply common sense to your fights

[fiery lynx]

I be doing that

[safe dawn]

Watch some tips and tricks videos on yt then, find settings that work for you

[fiery lynx]

🍤🍤 that snake is funked up

[opal mesa]

did the master chief collection sale just end??

[fiery lynx]

Have y'all seen that meme where it's like "should I stop beating my girlfriend" and it's like you'd think they're like beating them up but at the end it says she keeps asking to play Halo with me (he was beating her in the game cuz she succ)

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah

[opal mesa]

when? like last night?

[obsidian wyvern]

I think so, it goes on sale very often though

[opal mesa]

do yk when the next sale is

thats crazy i miss it by a day

[obsidian wyvern]

is there a steam autumn sale I can't remember, probably sometime in October though

its 2 months away lol

but I'd say wait for it anyway

[fickle drift]

These players in halo infinite have to be bots

[frosty siren]

Halo reach song "Ashes" sounds like kids crying for help a bit

[civic walrus]

normal gruntpocalypse

if you can get any kills at all you’ll get like 3-4k xp per match

[fiery lynx]

Grunt apocalypse I only played that on Spartan firefight

[civic walrus]

why did you skull react yourself?

[fiery lynx]

It's an inside joke

‎

[tight remnant]

that community tab will definitely not be muted for me

looking forward to that one a lot, its always fun

[fiery lynx]

Huh

[civic walrus]

It's an inside joke

[fiery lynx]

ok bro

"it's an inside joke" I think the real joke here is that you're lonely (sarcasm)

[frosty siren]

Lol I think me deleting my own measage broke something

[frosty siren]

||Better than fortnite||

Sad. I guess this game doesn't have a competitive community. People don't even make frag movies 😭😭😭

[obsidian wyvern]

there's a big tournament next week

[frosty siren]

https://youtu.be/DofP5Zt1Gdk?si=Lx86Y_G-AcVDMJwo

[north obsidian]

Please save the game

[cedar turret]

It has auto save

[fickle drift]

lol

[steady jolt]

I was thinking the same thing lol

[floral pollen]

Firefight exists

[north obsidian]

What's your thoughts about dual wielding weapons should they bring it back?

[elfin glacier]

Is it best to play the Campaigns in order of release or in chronological order

[obsidian wyvern]

release

[elfin glacier]

ie do I start with CE or Reach

[elfin glacier]

thanks, just got MCC and im looking forward to starting the CE campaign! Tried some CE MP and it just wasn't to my taste but I'm excited to give the campaign a try

[obsidian wyvern]

I don't like CE tbh because of how outdated it feels, so going from reach to that is kinda rough

better to just go through it the way it came out, see how the gameplay changed - for the better, mostly

[elfin glacier]

Thanks for the advice, any particular gameplay changes that make the experience better? like does sprinting in H4 make the game feel more fun or what

[obsidian wyvern]

uh the order because I know Reddit can give stupid suggestions like pausing a game midway to play another game:

CE
2
3
3ODST
REACH
4

[elfin glacier]

is Halo 5 on steam or should i just pretend that game doesn't exist

i've heard bad things about it

[fickle drift]

The Campaign isn’t accessible on PC at all.

[elfin glacier]

damn thats rough

not even through gamepass or something?

[obsidian wyvern]

..sprint was a huge debate in the halo community because most people didn't like how different that made the game but I honestly think it was a good addition

but idk there's a lot of stuff you'll notice as you play the game, small additions that just make it more fun to play

[obsidian wyvern]

if you've got good download speeds, xcloud works pretty well

halo 5 is pretty fun

[elfin glacier]

ill have to give it a try

[fickle drift]

Oh right there’s streaming, forgot about that.

[elfin glacier]

streaming games is dodgy at best, but ig for a singleplayer campaign input delay isn't too big of a deal

[obsidian wyvern]

good download speeds being like 200mbps if you don't want any input delay

[elfin glacier]

😔

I've got good wifi at home but i just arrived at uni and i have no idea if the wifi can handle that

[obsidian wyvern]

some of my friends unis have insane speeds but mines 100 max

[elfin glacier]

i just did a speed test and ive got 100 sadge

decent but not good enough for xcloud

[obsidian wyvern]

I mean it'll be a decent experience but there's noticeable input delay

[elfin glacier]

thanks for the advice

[obsidian wyvern]

guessing you're in England so you'll be close to servers too

[elfin glacier]

your guess is spot on

what gave it away, was it using the word dodgy?

[obsidian wyvern]

eu role, English is good, uni starting for us this week lol

[elfin glacier]

lmfao fair enough

u also in the uk?

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah England too

[elfin glacier]

hell yea, good luck at uni mate

[obsidian wyvern]

aye u too 🫡

Halo 5 multiplayer👎🏼

[cedar turret]

https://tenor.com/view/whatever-sassy-ugh-duh-eyeroll-gif-17849793169258709107

[steady jolt]

5's multiplayer was a lot of fun for me. Roaking King, Husky Raid and Castle Wars were great

[obsidian wyvern]

I miss castle wars

[north obsidian]

The only thing I like from the multiplayer was you were able to do assassination

Why did they not add it to infinite

[obsidian wyvern]

was hoping this would be a sign but doesn't seem like it 😔

[steady jolt]

They were cool, but a lot of folk turned them off as they were a hindrance during gameplay. They were looking at retuning them, seeing if they could be done better, before bringing them back at some point

[fickle drift]

Wow halo infinite made my device crash

Is that a known bug wtf

[steady jolt]

Submit a support ticket

[calm fiber]

Please refer to the Halo Support site for additional information and/or to submit a ticket concerning any issues you may be experiencing.

https://aka.ms/HaloSupport

[north obsidian]

I want them to add playable elite and customize the armor with a rank system, but don't put them rank or competitive mode since people will say Elite are disadvantage

[fickle drift]

Well nothing they can do to help, just weird that my game froze then my Xbox series s rebooted

[steady jolt]

It's useful for them to get reports on crashes

[cedar turret]

That doesn't include car crashes. I tried filing reports on a couple of those and support got irritated

[north obsidian]

Even though I believe Spartans and elite are at the same level

I miss invasion game mode from reach but people were crying about it

And some people were crying about you can make their head smaller and it was too hard to get a headshot even though that was not my problem

Oh nice

[bleak shoal]

Wait I'm confused, these updates release sooner or download faster?

[steady jolt]

The same way you can pre-download a game before it releases, you'll be able to do with game updates

[bleak shoal]

Alr

[steady jolt]

So updates can be downloaded and installed and you can play as it goes live on the day

[bleak shoal]

So it still takes the same amount of time to download technically?

[steady jolt]

Yes, but you can do it in advance

[bleak shoal]

Ig it doesn't matter, I'm gonna apply this rn

[tranquil loom]

Eh, in a world where updates break things more and more and have to be pulled an hour after release I personally wouldn’t bother

[bleak shoal]

Yeah true

Infinite has been crashing again and again for no reason :v

[lime cedar]

trash game

[bleak shoal]

It is what it is 😔

[steady jolt]

Let's try and keep it constructive please

[lime cedar]

my bad, halo infinite is not a good game

[bleak shoal]

If forge had released just a bit sooner 😭

[lime cedar]

fr

[bleak shoal]

The infection community had to wait 4 whole seasons to get their gamemode

[lime cedar]

wait constructive? like construct? like the halo 3 multiplayer map described as "Vast quantities of water and other raw materials are consumed in creating even the smallest orbital installations."

[bleak shoal]

.<. Bruh

[fickle drift]

Hello frens

[candid solar]

One piece isn't a good series ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lime cedar]

fair I can see how a lot of people dont like one piece to long, bad pacing, to much fan service, very light hearted, very good points

[main trout]

Can we feed the elites potato chips and soda?

How do you think they'd react to human food

[lime cedar]

prolly glass the planet

[main trout]

I guess they have a penchant for alcohol beverages according to the halopedia

[indigo lotus]

What constructive means for example. Halo Infinite is an ok game, but not great. But there is always room for improvement to make better. That's constructive. Calling it trash or garbage is non-constructive. That's what he is telling you.

[lime cedar]

so I cant call any game bad?

[bleak shoal]

One Piece is rly overwhelming to get into considering the amount of episodes

[lime cedar]

yuh i almost didnt start it

[bleak shoal]

Basically you say what the game could've improved on so in a way, your calling the game bad

[lime cedar]

every bad game can always have improvments

[bleak shoal]

So point em out

Like for 1, I feel Infinite should've released with a little bit more

[main trout]

If you diss halo, I will remove the shingles off your house

[lime cedar]

im dissing halo infinite not the other games

[candid solar]

I will remove one layer of cells from your bones every night

[steady jolt]

More engaging conversations come from sharing ideas. "This is trash", "This game is bad" isn't helpful

[bleak shoal]

Ok I can't lie, the game taking forever to get an actual proper XP system was not a good sign

I know the 343 has new devs so I hope this sorta stuff doesn't happen again

[lime cedar]

good

[steady jolt]

Dang, there was a great tweet on feedback tiers but it's gone now as Jessie deleted her account
No archive of it either

[bleak shoal]

It is what it is ig. I know halo Infinite is finally complete but for me, it's bittersweet considering the amount of time it took to get here :p

[fickle drift]

“It gets good after 500 episodes” ahh show

[lime cedar]

yuh

[bleak shoal]

Hopefully the new One Piece thing does the franchise justice

[candid solar]

Makes sense, tbh. Twitter's a cesspit. I deleted both my accounts because of the rampant Transphobia. There's only so many times I can be told I shouldn't be alive and should join a percentage.

[bleak shoal]

New fans won't be spending months watching filler episodes 😭

[lime cedar]

good thing im not caught up

[steady jolt]

Yeah, mine went not long after Elon bought it. Stopped posting, kept the login to grab Halo tweets then finally binned it

Nice to see 343 using Threads a bit more now

[bleak shoal]

I remember the anime genre suddenly having a bunch of popular options a while ago. We had AOT, OP, etc

[candid solar]

Wonder if they'll ever make a hike to Bluesky.

Been using mine for a bit, albiet mostly for commission news and frog pics.

[steady jolt]

I keep meaning to try BlueSky again, especially after setting up my domain for it lol

[bleak shoal]

Then like we got Edgerunners, Chainsawman, Dungeon and Delicious, SPY X FAMILY, etc

[candid solar]

It's pretty legit.

They recently added video hosting functionality.

[bold sparrow]

Doesn't that happen naturally?

What're you gonna do with that calcium anyway, make a Pure Form?

Also, really should get BlueSky. Is it still open to new accounts?

[elfin glacier]

crazy how much worse the bot situation got after elon overpaid for twitter

[candid solar]

Yeppers

[bold sparrow]

Sweet

I've only been on Twitter for like a week and I already want out

[candid solar]

I've been mulling it over for a while and my breaking point was, well, what I said earlier.

Looked at a trans CC's comments when she talked about what being taken off HRT does to someone who can no longer make their own, with the end result usually being 'yeah you die slowly, unhealthily, and painfully even if you're emotionally fine somehow'.

Annnnnd the comments were pretty much 'yeah good die' on repeat. Was... Whew.

Infuriating doesn't feel like a strong enough word.

Heavy crap, IG.

[bold sparrow]

Underadably so
And here i thought the bad fan takes and negative responses to new lore for Halo were bad...
Small fish compared to that

Was it better before all this happened and I missed the good days or was ir always like this

[candid solar]

It was better before, mostly because Twitter didn't act as a megaphone for bigots of all stripes.

And actually, y'know, had moderation.

[bold sparrow]

Ahhh. Shame.

[candid solar]

I mean, good riddance regardless. There's been a major uptick in misinformation being spread on Twitter, Facebook, etc beyond what was previously believed, which really just exists as metastasized and magnified elements of misinfo and disinfo spreading back to the 70s and earlier; These campaigns are largely ship-of-Theseus'd in an uncoordinated way by various parties rather than a single insidious cabal, but tend to have the intended impact of disproportionate damage done via megaphoning societal stressors.

Not saying it as a matter of political posting, mind, more just matter-of-facting about the damage this does to information access and cultural status.

[fallen scarab]

is it possible to get outside the map on forge?

I know it used to be because I know a guy that did it all the time

and its like a known thing you could do that.

can someone show me an up to date tutorial on how?

[raw frost]

Which game?

[vocal parrot]

Whaddup yall

[quiet warren]

I can’t believe we getting a combat evolve remake

[candid solar]

Oh boy we rumor milling

My second least favorite MTG deck build

[fallen scarab]

let me ask him

[candid solar]

Phyrexian Poison counters are worse tho

[fallen scarab]

Infinite

Halo Infinite - map: Forge

[fickle drift]

Jfc I've played like 8 hours of halo infinite today this is just day one this game is gonna ruin my life let's goooo

[raw frost]

Ah idk then

[bold sparrow]

Are Slivers still a thing or am I decades out of date

[meager linden]

Good morning Spartans

[fair badger]

anyone got an eta on when this anti cheat bug is getting fixed. kills my vibe honestly

[fickle drift]

Is being 𝓕𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 allowed

[plush umbra]

.

[night sorrel]

Does anyone have the 2023 Halo-themed Valentine’s cards?

[valid portal]

beaten cursed halo and it was certainly an experience

[fickle drift]

@sleek halo u were in my game

Dying of cringe 😭

[candid solar]

Kinda?

[gilded wedge]

hi

[soft solstice]

Hello

[rare cedar]

[cold citrus]

Ahoy

[sleek halo]

What do you mean? Did I do bad?

[signal wedge]

Yes

[molten kindle]

I wonder how many people still play infinite on xbox

[cold citrus]

Apparently more play infinite than MCC

[molten kindle]

What

[cold citrus]

Oh i was letting u know ppl play infinite lol from ur msg

[molten kindle]

Ik but that surprises me

I thought people played more on mcc

[cold citrus]

Ah ya i prefer Halo MCC

Nope the community is small and I'm finding out how bad it is lol I'm already getting targeted

[molten kindle]

Rip

I was thinking about going on halo 5 to reach sr152

[cold citrus]

Ah couldn't get into Halo 5

[molten kindle]

That's fine I think most people don't like it because of the advance movement

[raw frost]

What rank are you on 5 now ?

[molten kindle]

Sr147

[raw frost]

I’m 152 on 5. Don’t waste your time bc you aren’t even halfway there at 147

[molten kindle]

Lol fr?

[raw frost]

Yes

Once you get to 151 it takes 15 million xp to get 152

[molten kindle]

Eh I'm gonna try anyway lmao

[raw frost]

Takes 50 million total xp to go from SR1-152

[molten kindle]

I've already looked into how min max exp before

[raw frost]

It was ridiculous

[molten kindle]

Ik

[raw frost]

If you’re gonna do it you’ll have to play firefight. Everything else is damn near dead

[molten kindle]

Infection is dead?

[raw frost]

Every time I’ve tried it

[molten kindle]

Even normal warzone?

[raw frost]

You can find warzone here and there

[molten kindle]

Do they have turbo warzone still?

[raw frost]

Yes I played a few games last month and each match was turbo.

[molten kindle]

Ah alr cause I heard before quick coring was a good way for exp

I still I have a few legendary exp boosters left I think

[raw frost]

Mythic firefight is the most efficient way to farm xp since the player base is so low these days

[molten kindle]

Doesn't that fail most of the time

[raw frost]

A win with a legendary boost will give you 25-27k per match on mythic firefight

And nah mythic is easy as hell if you know what to use on which bosses

[molten kindle]

When I played before people didn't really do good enough most of them made most of my matches fail

[raw frost]

I know a guy who hosts daily mythic lobbies. They never lose and he runs like 20 matches a day with full lobbies if you’re interested

[molten kindle]

Oh

[raw frost]

He basically helps carry people to 152

[molten kindle]

Damn that's cool

It'll take a while for me to reinstall tho

[raw frost]

He’s got like 17k matches of firefight lol

[molten kindle]

💀

[raw frost]

I’m max rank in every halo except infinite. I’m taking my time really

[molten kindle]

I don't think I'll ever do that in infinite

[raw frost]

It’s not bad for infinite.

You get enough xp per match to where it doesn’t feel like a chore

[obsidian wyvern]

halfway is just past 150

[molten kindle]

Damn

[raw frost]

People said it was too easy to reach max rank in Halo 4 and 343 took that personally

[molten kindle]

💀

[raw frost]

Big team infinity slayer and Spartan ops gave crazy amounts of xp

[molten kindle]

I wonder what's the hardest max rank in halo to reach is it halo 5? 😂

[raw frost]

100% Halo 5

[molten kindle]

😭

Crazy

[raw frost]

Took me 3 years to go from 151-152 💀
But I played off and on at that point

[molten kindle]

I started playing halo 5 in 2016

[raw frost]

That’s only a year after release so it’s not bad

[molten kindle]

I never grinded that hard on it only played til infinite came out

[meager linden]

What is your current progress on Halo 3 LASO?

[raw frost]

I can tell you from experience though that rare xp boosts will give you around 19k-22k XP and legendary will give you 25k-27k XP for a win in mythic firefight.
If you get a legendary gambit AI boost it can give you up to 33k XP

[raw frost]

What is your gamertag?

[molten kindle]

Same as my user here

But with II on the sides

[raw frost]

L or I

[molten kindle]

Spaced out

L

[raw frost]

I couldn’t find it on the tracker lol

[molten kindle]

It's II Deivi II

[obsidian wyvern]

I haven't touched it in a while, I'm doing all the other achievements first

[obsidian wyvern]

mcc if it counts

[obsidian wyvern]

you can check roughly how long it'll take you here
https://sr152.app/

[molten kindle]

Damn alr

[raw frost]

I checked there he’s 27.47% 💀

[obsidian wyvern]

oof

[raw frost]

You’ve got a tedious grind ahead of you

[obsidian wyvern]

I'm only at around 75 so I'm never going for 152

[raw frost]

Watchdog was worth it

[obsidian wyvern]

unless they bring the game to pc for its 10th anniversary next year and the game gets a population

[molten kindle]

Lol

[meager linden]

[molten kindle]

That's weird they haven't put it on pc yet

[meager linden]

There's still a chance

[molten kindle]

But i feel like there'd be cheaters If that happened

[obsidian wyvern]

really hope they do because atp, infinite doesn't seem like the game that'll bridge us over to the next game

the way MCC was the bridge to infinite

[raw frost]

Game literally just needs an fov slider

[molten kindle]

True

[molten kindle]

Which one

[raw frost]

5

[obsidian wyvern]

5s fov is rough

[molten kindle]

Yeah I've heard people say that
