general-chat

[dry lintel]

Hate that softlock so much

That falcon segment in general

[obsidian wyvern]

even on legendary it felt like you had to hit everything u could asap or youd die

[fickle drift]

Can’t forget to mention how useful the Revenant is in MP.

Fantastic harasser vehicle and flag runner thanks to the passenger seat.

Flips Warthogs very easily too.

[obsidian wyvern]

wow look at all this revenant praise 😮

[fickle drift]

Yes for the vehicle I should be specific about that. 😤

[obsidian wyvern]

😔

[pulsar heron]

please keep conversation in english! これは英語コミュニティです

[candid solar]

I never liked it much. Too "Human" for my tastes as far as Covenant vehicles go.

Personally I think it should've been designed more like the Spectre than... The weird corvette-looking thing it is.

Plus, you could carry a second passenger!

[fickle drift]

Is this aesthetically talking rather than function

[candid solar]

Yes

[molten pelican]

I quite like it

[candid solar]

Except the last part, because I'm thinking two skids but the driver guns.

Basically stuffing the Revenant into a blender with the Spectre

[obsidian wyvern]

i dont think it had a great design ngl but it wasnt anything i disliked

[fickle drift]

Could’ve been what the cut H4 equivalent was going for.

Mind you I think that’s only two occupants

[obsidian wyvern]

this looks like that apex one

[dry lintel]

The revenant looks like a concussion rifle in vehicle form, bulbous mf

[obsidian wyvern]

nvm no it doesnt, not at all. idk why i thought that

[molten pelican]

Looks like those spyders

[dry lintel]

That thing was fun

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah i liked it

[candid solar]

... It's better, I guess, but it doesn't solve my fundamental issue with the Rev, lmao

Which is the driver's seat

[obsidian wyvern]

i prefer 2 seats together like reach

[candid solar]

I feel like that just clashes with Covenant design language.

[obsidian wyvern]

but yeah spectre is much nicer

[dry lintel]

That seat looks hella comfortable

[jade gust]

I think if it was a post war vehicle designed with the intention of taking human design philosophy and mixing it with Covenant design philosophy, I think it'd make more sense

[obsidian wyvern]

i really just love side seats like this

[jade gust]

Ah yes, the Brute Spectre

[obsidian wyvern]

they shouldve made the razorback 6 players instead of 4

[dry lintel]

What does everyone think of the halo 5 covenant vehicle designs? I really like the wraith and the banshees

[obsidian wyvern]

i think infinite has the best looking banshee

[jade gust]

I need those designs back as Sword of Sanghelios variants of the vehicles in the next game

[dry lintel]

I’m not too fond of the banished banshee, banishee?

[fickle drift]

Aye, in terms of the H5 vehicles being Sangeheili adaptions of the Covenant vehicles I quite like them.

[obsidian wyvern]

a more simple looking halo 5 wraith would be nice to see. i just think theres too much going on

but the general design is good

[molten pelican]

It is quite chaotic

[dry lintel]

I kinda dig the insect influence

[fickle drift]

It’s a bit lost in the sauce

[obsidian wyvern]

..it reminds me of a scorpion

[fickle drift]

Oh dear

[obsidian wyvern]

was that the point lol ive just never made this connection

[candid solar]

I wonder what happened to that Kaidon who drove a Warthog.

[bleak shoal]

So like is it me or does the H5 wraith look less bulky

[dry lintel]

Bring back the needle hog 😉

[jade gust]

I think it's meant to be more akin to scarab beetles

[candid solar]

It is, which makes sense considering it has the health of a roll of toilet paper.

[jade gust]

It is less bulky

[jade gust]

Wait? Hold up. I haven't heard about this

[bleak shoal]

Is this talking from a gameplay view or a lore view

[jade gust]

Unironically yes!

[candid solar]

Former

[dry lintel]

The base wraith was terrible

[candid solar]

Halo Glasslands, when Jul shows up at the council meeting.

[jade gust]

Ah

[bleak shoal]

Should just get the option to change vehicles weapons with other guns. In the next game, I could make the warthog should SPNKR shots or whatever

[jade gust]

That's why then, not read the Kilo-5 trilogy

[obsidian wyvern]

the uh, the rocket hog yeah

[jagged silo]

Rocket hog buff

[candid solar]

Infinite's rocket hog is more of a Hydrahog, lmao

[dry lintel]

Give the rocket hog a toggle, I hate the single fire rockets so much.

[candid solar]

I like them, I just wish they hit harder.

[obsidian wyvern]

they just flip you over

[dry lintel]

Barrage was a lot more satisfying and was pretty balanced imo

[jade gust]

Make it function like Halo 4's Mantis missiles, hold to charge a volley or just tap to single fire

[fickle drift]

I do wonder sometimes if I miss the Guass Hog or not.

Certainly in Campaign.

[bleak shoal]

Imagine if the next rocket hog has a alt fire modes. You can shoot all of them at the cost of a hefty reload or single shot for less damage

[candid solar]

I don't.

[dry lintel]

I miss the gauss hog so much, gimme that back

[jade gust]

Give the Gauss hog the charge up it has in H2A MP

[candid solar]

Cool concept but absolute cancer to fight.

[edgy osprey]

No

[jade gust]

I don't think we're allowed to acknowledge that here

[bleak shoal]

Alright 🤷‍♀️

[hallow saffron]

Hey everyone. Is there anyway to play ranked slayer with my cousin when I am a plat and his a newer player at bronze?

[bleak shoal]

I mean it's in the game. I'll just wait and see if a mod tells me otherwise

[candid solar]

If it did come back I'd love some way to make it less of a pain to deal with. The charge mechanic would help.

[obsidian wyvern]

just 1 rocket on the wall and we flipped

[jade gust]

I need to look at how long the charge is on it in H2A because I used it once like 5 years ago

[bleak shoal]

Make the gun shoot less shots per second first starters and the charge would help so yeah

[candid solar]

Comparable to the railgun.

[dry lintel]

I blame infinites terrible vehicle physics more than anything. Worst game to drive in.

[candid solar]

... Wow, that's a wild take.

[bleak shoal]

The vehicles in Infinite have got no weight lol

[edgy osprey]

Good, makes them fun

[jade gust]

Ok, maybe lengthen it a little bit so it has a bit more time charging

[candid solar]

This is the second Halo I've ever actually liked driving vehicles in.

[obsidian wyvern]

theres like a good 50/50 split on infinites driving

[candid solar]

The first being 5.

[edgy osprey]

The first one was Halo 3?

[dry lintel]

Feel like you’re in the minority on that one

[edgy osprey]

Alright.

[obsidian wyvern]

halo 3 had good driving

[bleak shoal]

I mean it's all subjective

[candid solar]

Halo 3's vehicles drive like hot garbage.

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/skillissue-skill-issue-gif-22125481

[jade gust]

I like how responsive driving feels in Infinite much more than all the other games

[candid solar]

There's a reason I absolutely hate the warthog run.

[dry lintel]

Halo 5’s driving was perfect

[edgy osprey]

Because noob?

[candid solar]

Nah, I'm fine driving, I just hate how it feels.

[jade gust]

I think the Mongoose feels a little too responsive but I think that's just more down to it being much more responsive compared to previous iterations of the vehicle

[fickle drift]

I prefer 5’s honestly.

I like having in-air-control over more than just the Ghost but vehicles lack something.

Idk if it’s weight, or how quickly they accelerate or the sounds but something is off to me.

[edgy osprey]

The Mongoose is a bit much

[candid solar]

It's the most sluggish feeling, and I grew up playing a lot of racing games. It feels like driving a damn bus. And that's coming from someone who literally had to drive buses for work.

[bleak shoal]

Has drifting ever been useful in Halo? I think it's called the power slide in Halo 2 but whatevs

[edgy osprey]

Yes

[fickle drift]

I use it frequently yes.

[obsidian wyvern]

it looks cool

[dry lintel]

I think power sliding is useful on all the hogs

[jade gust]

It's fun to drift round things

[edgy osprey]

If you can learn how to do it it's pretty fun to do

[fickle drift]

More likely to splatter dodging enemies by broadsiding them yk.

[bleak shoal]

I mean I know it works but like I've never found an actual situation where it's more viable then regularly turning

[jade gust]

Like let me go Fast and Furious on the enemy

[candid solar]

Being able to drive via mouselook plus WASD at the same time is awesome. One of my favorite parts of Infinite's driving.

[edgy osprey]

Turning fast

[bleak shoal]

I mean I can already turn fast in Infinite without drifting

[obsidian wyvern]

drifting so the passenger seat is in front of a teammate with the flag (and then splattering them)

[fickle drift]

mmmhmmm

[dry lintel]

Style points above all else

[bleak shoal]

So it's style is what I'm getting lol

[candid solar]

Also, seat switching is a GOATed mechanic.

[jade gust]

I'm so glad Rev wasn't driving when we were doing campaign achievements

[obsidian wyvern]

nah it actually does help splatter like h8 said

[bleak shoal]

I could just brake honestly

[dry lintel]

Amen

[candid solar]

Especially since Halo balances it better than most games that have seat switching.

[obsidian wyvern]

not yet anyway

[jade gust]

Style is oft a forgotten aspect of games, it's why we need more of it

[jade gust]

I'll just use a different vehicle

[dry lintel]

I used to just switch seats on the rocket hog to see my spartan do a little swing around the turret

[bleak shoal]

Oh yeah. H3 and Reach had some pretty cinematic moments for me in the MP.

[obsidian wyvern]

cant forget the covenant drifting before glassing reach

[candid solar]

I once argued with a guy who preferred the old way of getting out and in again because it 'heightened tension'.

More like heightening my blood pressure because of how annoying it is to have to do that when Borderlands figured this crap out in its first game.

[jade gust]

I hear the Elite that pulled that move got promoted for how sick it was

[bleak shoal]

It is what it is

[dry lintel]

I think there is definitely an element of fun and chaos when you are trying to flip your vehicle in the middle of a battle, but I definitely prefer seat swapping.

[candid solar]

It's like that vapid complaining about how you can 'pick up ammo' from plasma weapons in Infinite when it's just making something that was a pain before better using, gasp, simplification.

[fickle drift]

Like the idea of the Elite commander slamming the handbrake before blasting the Glassing beam lol

[jade gust]

Seat swapping was such a great quality of life change that Halo 5 brought and I wish it was in the older games so much

[bleak shoal]

Just use mods

[obsidian wyvern]

thinking of that 4th character in eva controlling it with a steering wheel

[bleak shoal]

Wait are you a console player my bad

[obsidian wyvern]

-i forgot her name

[jade gust]

He watched an old Earth movie, Tokyo Drift, for inspiration

[jade gust]

Mari

https://tenor.com/view/mari-makinami-illustrious-mari-rebuild-of-evangelion-evangelion-gif-22725307

[obsidian wyvern]

thats the one

[bleak shoal]

Lot of fan service in those movies. . .

[edgy osprey]

I didn't think anyone would dislike this

[jade gust]

The whole series broke me down and pieced me back together a changed person

[fickle drift]

Man the holo-setups in the new gen Eva’s are cool.

I like the old plugs with handles, etc. granted but still.

[bleak shoal]

NGE has some wild shots of characters lol

[candid solar]

So long as there are two left on earth, Halo fans will argue over anything.

[dry lintel]

?

[bleak shoal]

Humans will argue about anything

The way of the world ig

[jade gust]

They'll argue about sprint even after the end of everything

[candid solar]

"Omg they stretched out Midship"

[fickle drift]

[jade gust]

"Yes, because you do that to accommodate what the player has access to as abilities"

[dry lintel]

I can feel my eyes roll back into my head whenever someone says "doesnt feel like halo"

[candid solar]

I always found that argument hilarious, because like... Of course they did? It's a claustrophobic map, and it's not like they retroactively made the old versions bigger.

[edgy osprey]

This was about the person that preferred to get out and get back in the vehicle, oops

Being able to switch seats feels much better

[candid solar]

Halo fans hate this one simple balancing rationale

[fickle drift]

It reduces the impact of player incompetence. Which is nice.

[jade gust]

I'd argue the map was too small even for Halo 2 and 3, but I know I'd be crucified for saying that

[bleak shoal]

Nah

[candid solar]

I mean I always hated Midship. It's my least favorite map in the franchise.

[bleak shoal]

Fits right at home with Halo 2

[candid solar]

By far.

[dry lintel]

I didn't like midship until halo 5

[candid solar]

I don't even like 5's version, lmao.

[dry lintel]

I bet you love Regret then

[obsidian wyvern]

midship is far from the worst but not good

[bleak shoal]

You don't like anything

[obsidian wyvern]

lol

[candid solar]

I'm a Halo fan. Disliking things is what I do.

[dry lintel]

shoutout The Rig fr

[obsidian wyvern]

I'm sure your hate for midship is increased by the amount of people who praise it

[dry lintel]

has nothing to do with midship but shoutout

[bleak shoal]

Doesn't the Rig have that cool Easter egg

[edgy osprey]

It does

[candid solar]

It's very much a "Your boos mean nothing, I've seen what makes you cheer" type situation.

[dry lintel]

the Dune easter egg on the rig is the only dune media i've ever consumed 😂

[past tapir]

Why does the markings on Emile’s kit not show up like on his right shoulder it doesn’t have the markings he does in reach

[fickle drift]

I’m not huge on Midship personally. I do think Zealot is much worse.

[edgy osprey]

Because game not Reach

[candid solar]

Then again, this is me with a lot of Halo stuff lmao

[bleak shoal]

Imo I don't hate any means but there is one I lowkey dislike. It's the Infinite version of h5 MP map Plaza

[candid solar]

Oooh man. I hated that map.

The 5 version is fine, but Infinite's is so damn boring.

[dry lintel]

plaza best arena map in 5

[bleak shoal]

It was so visually cool and I loved it especially because it's a great Infection map ngl

[jade gust]

It works as a campaign space you fight in once, but after that, yeah it's not great

[dry lintel]

the amount of sweat I have poured over plaza. good times

the skill jumps

[candid solar]

They should set a map in a space casino. Or arcade.

Like, on a space station.

[bleak shoal]

Ngl we should have a map vote system

[dry lintel]

Streets has your arcade

[bleak shoal]

Just imo

[candid solar]

No but like, the entire map being that

[jade gust]

Canto Bite from Star Wars could be great inspiration for that

[candid solar]

Like a map set in a space dave and busters type deal

[pulsar heron]

halo had map veto, but it just resulted in the same two or three maps being played for the most part

[bleak shoal]

What's Dave and busters

[candid solar]

Arcade but with booze.

[jade gust]

Arcade in the US

[bleak shoal]

Mabye make your maps interesting so that every map will want to be played

[pulsar heron]

this would be fun though

[candid solar]

Mechwarrior Online had a really nice map voting system where you'd get a modifier that increased how much your vote counted the more times you didn't get to play a map.

[dry lintel]

didnt like map voting. People are boring and will pick only maps they are comfortable with. Not maps that are necessarily "good".

[candid solar]

So you could force a match on pretty much any map eventually, theoretically.

[bleak shoal]

I mean you could just give 3 maps to vote out of 20 or more maps

[pulsar heron]

^ hanni's got it. maps werent vetoed for being bad, they were vetoed for almost every other reason imaginable

[bleak shoal]

3 randomized maps to choose from and your good

[pulsar heron]

i hated h3 snowbound, but it always got chosen for some reason

[bleak shoal]

For which gamemode?

[candid solar]

I never actually played on snowbound very often. I stuck to BTB back in Halo 3.

What few little free for all custom games I played on Snowbound utterly sucked though.

[bleak shoal]

I always stuck with Infection even though it sucked ngl. (Reach had best version of Alpha Zombies)

[dry lintel]

I think people just like to cross map with the BR on snowbound. Was so annoying.

[candid solar]

I actually love Infinite's alpha zombies lmao

The active camo is great for dislodging people.

[bleak shoal]

Just go underground :>

[pulsar heron]

i really only used to play slayer for 3. but i hated the map itself irrespective of mode. always got killed at the edge of the action and never managed to get my way in to wherever the good stuff was happening

[dry lintel]

where you can then die because its just a grenade funnel

[bleak shoal]

Well hot damn

It is what it is. Should've controlled the spot first ig

[pulsar heron]

i did get a nasty br double on snowbound a few years ago, but its the only good thing ive had happen on that map ):

[dry lintel]

Anyone remember the linear zombie maps in halo 5? Those are my all time favorite infection maps

[candid solar]

The BF1 Fort Devaux experience

[bleak shoal]

Omg Halo Infinite or the next game needs to bring back the Contingency infection gamemode

I loved those maps

[obsidian wyvern]

REAL

[dry lintel]

facts. defending while you wait for the next barrier to go down, and then making a break for it in a vehicle. Ugh so good

[obsidian wyvern]

I've been asking for contingency since infinite launched

[candid solar]

Speed Halo in matchmaking when

[pulsar heron]

what was contingency? dont think i ever encountered that

[edgy osprey]

I mean, is it really surprising that people don't vote for maps they don't like?

[dry lintel]

h5 infected playlist, oh nvm you said what

[bleak shoal]

It's a linear infection gamemode where you move from multiple areas to another

It's get from point A to point B without getting infected

[dry lintel]

Almost like left 4 dead

[pulsar heron]

ohhh that one! i always called it "the l4d gamemode" haha

[bleak shoal]

So damn fun

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah u gotta hold out till the door opens

halo 5 infection was probably my favourite

[dry lintel]

h5 customs were so peak 🥲

[candid solar]

I kinda wanna get the Fireteam Osiris logo tatted somewhere someday, but not many people would know what it is. Sadge.

It's such a nice logo, too.

[dry lintel]

worlds only osiris fan

jk

[pulsar heron]

ive always thought about getting a halo emblem tattoo, but i've never settled on what

[edgy osprey]

3

[pulsar heron]

(i know this sounds silly coming from Guy With Rampancy Emblem As PFP but still)

[fickle drift]

Ban this user asap

[candid solar]

Not exactly a temporary decision lmao

[dry lintel]

did you play them?

[bleak shoal]

Tattoo Halo 4 Cortana on your shoulder so your always be motivated

[candid solar]

... It's literally one of the only things people tend to agree on with 5, what?

[fickle drift]

I’m JK

[bleak shoal]

Cap

[fickle drift]

Lmao

[bleak shoal]

Bro is capping hard

[fickle drift]

I only played the campaign

[jade gust]

Do it anyway, who cares if many people won't recognise it

[fickle drift]

🧢

[dry lintel]

I always assume someone played like an hour of halo 5 when they blatantly write it off

[pulsar heron]

top picks have been rampancy with spearhead overlaid (like the image, but linework only) or trifecta

[bleak shoal]

I'm not one of those people btw

[pulsar heron]

real, a tattoo should be personal

[edgy osprey]

They're my favorite

[dry lintel]

I want the Spartan IV logo as a tattoo.

[fickle drift]

I want a tattoo of master chief

[edgy osprey]

Customs just aren't like Halo 5's

[jade gust]

I've contemplated getting the one used for Project Freelancer from RvB but I'm not a big fan of needles so...

[pulsar heron]

(thats trifecta :p)

[jade gust]

Aye, someone I used to know had an AtLA tattoo because it meant so much to them growing up and I remember them talking about how they wanted to get a tattoo over surgery scars after the surgery happened

[candid solar]

Real.

[jade gust]

(Thanks, I always forget the name of that one)

[candid solar]

I've seen some trans men with absolutely killer tattoos to work with their top surgery scars.

[pulsar heron]

i have as well, surgical covering tats can be so cool

[candid solar]

Real nice elaborate patterns.

[pulsar heron]

i recently started getting my ears built up with piercings to stave off my want for a tattoo; i gotta wait for a surgery of my own before i can start getting sleeves done

[jade gust]

That's exactly what the person I used to know wanted to do (They're non binary and been trying to get the surgery for years)

But yeah, normalise stuff like tattoos that incorporate/cover up surgery scars

[candid solar]

I hope they keep doing the pride month coatings.

[fickle drift]

Master Master

[candid solar]

Hell, scars in general. They're a testament to your survival, might as well make it a canvas.

[dry lintel]

Woke me, when you need me.

(this is a joke)

[jade gust]

Indeed

[jade gust]

I think it would be nice to see some representing specific pride flags for Pride Month

This is the most shocking piece of Halo 3 cut content (in my opinion)

I've been remaking & 'finishing' it for the past few days to avoid using any leaked assets. It is MASSIVE.

The Guardian Accumulator - WIP

Twitter · Jan 4, 2025, 4:37 PM

this guardian design is so good

[jade gust]

I like how it's been incorporated into canon as Offensive Bias' body

[fickle drift]

Reminds me of the Compilers from Marathon. Similar silhouette.

[dry lintel]

creepy af

[jade gust]

I believe that was the main inspiration for the design

[fickle drift]

Makes sense, would love to see it in motion.

[jade gust]

Same here

I wonder what Offensive Bias sounds like?

I kinda hope something similar to Sovereign from Mass Effect 1

[dry lintel]

this thing looks like its about to make the Citadel alarm noise from half life 2

[candid solar]

Genderfluid pride Spartan when

[jade gust]

One day Trench, one day

[candid solar]

Tapes a giant angry eyebrow on it

[molten pelican]

Utensil spartan when

But Spork you’re already here

[molten pelican]

Oh yeah

In my non bias opinion they should put me in game

[fickle drift]

Big floppa

[steady hemlock]

i have yet to lose a 1v1 showdown game is that sick chat

ive played like 10 now havent lost any

[molten pelican]

It would be impressive if you were blind folded and using a Wii controller

R u playing against good players

[steady hemlock]

Yup

[simple ice]

So cute

This gif

[dry lintel]

whats the lore reason behind MCC being the only game on my PC to bootup on my second monitor

[granite sky]

Why aren't they winning? They must be bad

[steady hemlock]

nah im better

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[granite sky]

Indeed. I want to hear that u beat someone better than u

[steady hemlock]

goodnight

[steady hemlock]

ive beaten people with the hero rank on quick play matches sometimes

so

[dry lintel]

theres a lot of shockingly bad players in 1v1 showdown for some reason

[granite sky]

Hero just means they play a lot

[floral pollen]

Career Rank is not equal to skill
Ranked rank moreso is

Like I'm only P2/3, but almost a Hero

[steady hemlock]

ok

but at the same time it CAN be indicative of skill. if you play a lot you're naturally going to level up and get better over time.

[pliant hatch]

and there's also a natural skill cap unless you actively try to get better.

[molten pelican]

It could just be an indicator about how much time they've spent in the game but I would assume someone at hero rank knows a thing or two lol

[faint mantle]

Can confirm. I peaked on the natural skill cap, tried to get better, got frustrated with my ability to play FPS games, now I serve Managed Democracy and the God Emperor.

[dry lintel]

I have friends who are SR152 that go bottom of the leaderboard almost every game. Some people just play a lot.

[pliant hatch]

the early ones yes, but it's naturally going to go down the longer time goes on.

[pulsar pagoda]

Does Frank O Connor still work for Halo or did he get the sack?

[obsidian wyvern]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[steady jolt]

Frank left Microsoft almost 2 years ago

[pulsar pagoda]

Oh really, what is he doing now and why did he leave?

Wasn't he like the godfather of halo?

[steady jolt]

No idea. He started off working on the community team at Bungie, if memory serves me correctly. Moved into writing and eventually franchise

[granite sky]

his hair grew back he lives on a Hawaii beach now

[steady jolt]

Oh, Writer/CM at Bungie and Franchise Creative Director at Microsoft

[dry lintel]

I hear he became a janitor

[steady jolt]

Easier to check LinkedIn

[fickle drift]

Lmao

[pulsar pagoda]

Tried but there's too many frankies to sift through. I gave up

[steady jolt]

I love Hamish

[foggy pewter]

rumors say that running someone over with a transport hog is more effective than the plasma mortar on the revenant

what the hell was bungie thinking when they made the revenant

[granite sky]

rev is rlly good at knocking vehicles over its a PESTER and scary

[lapis ivy]

@dry lintel remember when I said yesterday that both of those files and Microsoft redistributable were missing? Well idk but they vanished and reappeared could be caused I resetted my PC yesterday and I guess it took a while for them to install or maybe when I checked for a Windows update and they may have been downloaded with the update

[hybrid plover]

i’m soooo sad

[carmine fractal]

Aren't we all?

Oh that's interesting. I imagine a windows update might have added them, then.

[storm garnet]

[burnt wagon]

I have job, and it’s not trying to ragebait people online to get off at night

[steady jolt]

[storm garnet]

so i should get a night job now?

[burnt wagon]

Yes

I did not know hanging RGB rope was so irritating

[granite sky]

the first question they ask in any job interview is how would you deal with pressure like the Library mission in Halo CE

[bleak shoal]

I hate the skill issue argument but yeah I agree. I don't I've ever heard a competent player actually struggle with the Library

[burnt wagon]

I’m not a competent player

[bleak shoal]

The only thing I'm struggling with is the urge to play a better mission lmao

[burnt wagon]

I’m very sub par

[bleak shoal]

Ok

[burnt wagon]

The “skill issue” child comment just ticked me off

[bleak shoal]

Just learn how the flood plays and the game becomes very easy to deal with

[burnt wagon]

Genuinely don’t get how some wake up and be like “hey I’m gonna annoy strangers today!”

[bleak shoal]

Well idk how they would've put otherwise without saying you suck

Flood is a very rush down eccentric enemy type so put yourself in positions that give you an advantage point

Usually open areas

[wise scaffold]

Ts frying me yall arguing over what 😭

[bleak shoal]

Idk what were arguing about

I'm just telling the guy how the flood plays lmao

[hybrid plover]

SNOW STORM

[tame bridge]

old 100%

[jagged silo]

Anniversary ce graphics are mid

[tame bridge]

the new graphics completely change the atmosphere of the original. Youll reach a level in the game that has a dreadful vibe that the new graphics low key ruin

[ebon kayak]

guys

is there a way to play 3 player halo ce split screen co-op

[lapis ivy]

I'm surprised brute force wasn't in the announcements

[tired cloud]

I'd suggest original graphics

[keen tangle]

nope. it’s 2 player max for that game

unless ur in mp then yeah

[keen tangle]

play with old graphics, so it’s more consistent with the other games.

anniversary graphics have like a total change in the art style

original lines up well with halo 2/3

im losing my mind trying to play mcc coop campaign, no matter who i play with it crashes within 5 minutes of playing

any campaign

[steep isle]

PC or Console?

[hollow sedge]

[steep isle]

makes sense: console supports better. could be dependable whether on the version of your computer (basically what year it was made and it's update forum) and it's storage

[trim saddle]

TrashPanda is correct. Although it may not completely violate the rules of family-friendly, it may be questionable to others.

If you're not intent on removing femboy from your pfp, at least change your discord username

You can keep it on "about me" but please not your name where everyone can see it

How they massacred my girl cortana

[winter flame]

she did this to herself

she knew the protocol

[pale rune]

Not if you disregard halo 5's story

[void magnet]

Ironically Halo 5 literally un-massacred Cortana 🤓

[pale rune]

Nuh uh

you tripping

Halo 4's ending was her perfect sendoff

[void magnet]

I meant as in they literally brought her back to life

[pale rune]

But not like that smh

[void magnet]

I know I was making a nerdy point brooo

[pale rune]

Ik ik but still brah

[void magnet]

(and I didn't really like H4 anyway lol I'm sorry)

[pale rune]

I mean the story was probably one of the best for post-bungie games and the campaign was at least ok granted it did lose some of what made halo work

[tame bridge]

4 was 343s best game

[pale rune]

Halo 5 imho deserves the dislike it gets halo 4 not so much

[tame bridge]

each game got worse

[pale rune]

havent played infinite but it looks alright from what Ive seen

[tame bridge]

worst halo game

[pale rune]

its next on my list since I already played through all of the mcc collection

[tame bridge]

imo

[shy plume]

mega PLEASE release more halo sets I’m begging

[pale rune]

whys that lol

[tame bridge]

i dont like the sandbox, the f2p decision, the vehicles feel like they are made out of paper, the campaign feels like a worse Far Cry, i dont like having to pay for colours and armour, I think the UI is very ugly to look at and i just dont like how the game feels because of the engine.

[elfin glacier]

yappin

[tame bridge]

Its the only halo game that ive dropped. I didnt mind 4 and 5 despite their flaws

[tame bridge]

he asked why and i answered bruh

[elfin glacier]

ok

[fickle drift]

AC just be like that sometimes

[dry lintel]

hella valid

I just drop in for the operations now

[fickle drift]

The exchange also got some more playtime out of me.

[fickle drift]

Yeah actual incentive for me to play the game now besides for the fun of it

[dry lintel]

I’m a carrot on a stick type guy. The grind to hero rank also helps a lil.

[pallid helm]

What's up what you talking abt?

[bleak shoal]

Man 343 really had to make Cortana the way she did in Halo 4 lmao

[signal wedge]

yes...

they needed to sell the game

10mins to find a ranked game helloooo pls revive infinite

or ill commit die

the game is cool ppl just cant aim

is 51k SP enough to next exchange shop?
Or i need to farm more?

[fickle drift]

That’s crazy

[meager linden]

Unlucky

[viscid nest]

if you can get to 75k buy ghost of recon helmet thats badass

still looking for a game since i said that ^

[jade gust]

What mode are you searching for?

Because depending on the mode, it'll be faster

[viscid nest]

ranked arena

[meager linden]

Ehh, kinda mid helmet

[viscid nest]

tier 1 helmet

anyways are you all having a issue where you cant change xboxb gamertag?

[jade gust]

No because I changed it just fine a few months back

[edgy osprey]

What issue are you experiencing?

[viscid nest]

Are you sure you want to change your gamertag? You won't be able to change it back., and then when i click change gamertag

[shy plume]

I’m not spending a dime on infinite but spending hundreds on mega sets 💔

[viscid nest]

a popup comes and it says 404 Not Found

[fickle drift]

I spent zero bucks on the game

[prisma jasper]

infinitie?

[fickle drift]

Yep

[prisma jasper]

did u pirate it

[fickle drift]

I got the game on game pass

[prisma jasper]

oh

[edgy osprey]

Have you tried searching this up

[prisma jasper]

me too

too bad its not on pc

[fickle drift]

😔

[prisma jasper]

i actually pirated halo combat and 2 at first but it was so good i felt bad so i bought it with my moneh

does the money go to 343 or bunjie

[jade gust]

Bungie haven't made money from Halo since they split from Microsoft

Since, you know, they don't make the games anymore

[fickle drift]

That’s funny

[prisma jasper]

yeah but the old games they they did made

if i buy them after bunjie left halo then who gets the money

[winter flame]

microsoft probs

[prisma jasper]

i hope

[winter flame]

only ODST and Reach were developed by Bungie Inc, before that Bungie was just part of Microsoft

but I believe typical dev-publisher agreements dont include any revenue split or anything

they did agree to have their name on the box for MCC tho

Saber should really be there too but they're regulated to the back

[prisma jasper]

whos saber

[winter flame]

studio behind the remasters and also basically the co-developer of MCC as a whole

they've worked on porting all the games as I understand

[prisma jasper]

even combat evolved?

[winter flame]

yeah, Saber worked on a lot of the fixes to that port

[prisma jasper]

man i remember playing the halo 2 port for vista

it was horrible

[winter flame]

it's pretty solid in MCC minus some crashes

thanks to 343 and Saber

[prisma jasper]

yeah

[molten pelican]

Unless you're Rev

[winter flame]

he crashed when we were doing CE LASO as well 🥲

[molten pelican]

I think it's a skill issue

[winter flame]

yeah

[prisma jasper]

i hate when it happens lol

[winter flame]

next run he still got out the ghost here

thankfully no crash

[molten pelican]

I hate when this happens lol

it pops up for 3 seconds just to stress you out

[winter flame]

we did rerun the mission in a much better time tho

[molten pelican]

Nice

[winter flame]

so basically we became better gamers as a result

[haughty moat]

I found some word bird statue in a halo 4 mission. I thinks it’s the mission forerunner.

[molten pelican]

It made you get good

[winter flame]

rev even confessed to enjoying the second run (he's a CE hater)

[haughty moat]

It made a yay sound effect.

[molten pelican]

I think I remember him saying that, still thing he's pulling our legs

[winter flame]

find 2 more and you'll get some XP

[haughty moat]

Where are the other two?

[winter flame]

he's learning to appreciate the art

[molten pelican]

It just takes a special pair of eyes to see, eyes that can see in the dark at least

Some of the levels are dark af

[haughty moat]

Guess I’ll have to find them

[winter flame]

its suppose to be 3 per mission but apparently its bugged rn so good luck

[haughty moat]

Ah

[jade gust]

Is Rev finally learning taste?

[molten pelican]

Probably not

Too young to understand beauty

[haughty moat]

Are the locations random?

[analog knot]

Sort of. Each map has X number of them that can spawn, and only Y maps get them each week.

But as mentioned, they are broken right now. Have been for a few weeks.

[haughty moat]

Will they ever get fixed?

Or no?

[analog knot]

Hopefully. When the guardians stopped working it took them a little over 6 months to fix, and that was a major bug. This ones more minor, so who knows how long.

No comments on it publicly, no roadmap for anything, hold on and enjoy the ride 😄

[fickle drift]

[rotund vector]

[meager linden]

They appears randomly

And they only for daily missions

[jagged belfry]

play quickmatch rn if you want to win

quick play*

[haughty moat]

WORT

[pliant hatch]

yes, a certain set will spawn in a different location each week, but they'll always be in the same spots around the map. they're currently not counting cause they're last week's locations, but they haven't been fixed cause HS was on break.

I'm just too lazy to change it back rn

[dry lintel]

its okay rev i agree, i hate CE's level design

[obsidian wyvern]

🫡

[molten pelican]

It was made over 20 years ago lol

[jade gust]

I'd say the best designed levels are Pillar of Autumn, Silent Cartographer and 343 Guilty Spark

[molten pelican]

Silent cartographer is my favorite personally or the maw

The maw is probably hated after laso lol

[dry lintel]

doesnt stop some people from acting like its peak videogame in 2024. I love it for what it is but doing some of those MCC achievements made me hate it a little lol

[hasty zinc]

because you search "rev"

[jade gust]

Library, Assault on the Control Room and Two Betrayal are my least favourites, especially with how long the latter two are, they overstay their welcome

[molten pelican]

No I agree it's not that fun anymore but I can't hate on it because of context

Hey I'm new but I jaut wanted to ask if anyone knows, in halo infinte is cortana still evil and idd she do her AI galaxy take over because from the I have payed Idk what's going on if she is evil or not

And her whispers nad how 117 acte about cortana frlls different from halo 5 and it feels like 117 forgot about what she did in halo 5

[jade gust]

She's dead and we see Chief directly acknowledge what she had been doing before she died, such as when he tells Weapon about Cortana threatening Earth

And we see Cortana's decision to destroy the Brute homeworld, she did that because Atriox did not swear loyality to her

I do wish infinite had addressed the stuff from halo epitaph with cortana and the gravemind leading to her change, of what remained of her

[hasty zinc]

Neat edit https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTY3RCaGo/

[steady jolt]

Nice

[cedar turret]

Mine didn’t do that

[noble wyvern]

Well it will be 3 years since the og halo srevers were shutdown

[cedar turret]

Think you're off by a decade or so

[noble wyvern]

It's 2025 it's been 3 years

5-3 is 2

[dry lintel]

cant believe its been 17 years since infinite came out

[void magnet]

If the next game doesn’t have zoom in/zoom out keybinds ima crash out

[stiff void]

What is yalls fav halongame

[void magnet]

Even H5 forge had those keybinds man

[void magnet]

Halo 2

[cedar turret]

Yeah, that was still in 2010... so 15 years ago

[stiff void]

Me it's halo 3

[noble wyvern]

3 and 2

2 and 3 had the best sound tracks

[void magnet]

CE had covenant dance tho, never got a re-orchestration of that besides CEA (which sounded not as good)

[noble wyvern]

Ture also ce

[void magnet]

CE had the most 90’s era soundtrack and soundscape man I loved it take me back (my favorite ost is 2 tho ima be real)

Sometimes they unlock like that yea

[wise pecan]

Hello everyone

[noble wyvern]

2 gos for sad and hype

[stiff void]

I like halo infinite too

Especially the multiplayer

[jagged ingot]

Halo infinite has good gameplay, I just wish the UI was more refined. It’s sad that trying to get into the store is so slow lol

[stiff void]

Ya I agree

It's pretty under rated too

[jagged ingot]

What’s that infinite?

[fickle drift]

To infinity and beyond

[jagged ingot]

That controller title is sweet lol

[candid tusk]

For sure the next stage of XR glasses.

[stiff void]

I'm playing infinite rn

What is yalls thoughts on snowball fight

I've got no school tmr

🥲

I'm so happy

[fossil skiff]

snowball fight is fun

I was surprised they allowed a ghost on the map though

[cedar turret]

they're hard to get rid of.

Ghostbusters are expensive

[fossil skiff]

I can fix that problem with the delete key in forge mode

that giant cockroach on the 23rd floor however..

[foggy pewter]

pillar of autumn took me 2 hour 30 min

lone wolf took me 31 seconds

[waxen rose]

Not me stuck on halo 2 outskirts

[foggy pewter]

how

actually how

it's pretty easy, the despawns aren't hard to pull off on metropolis and outskirts

[safe dawn]

what is the difficulty?

[safe dawn]

it depends on whether or not you're using those, because not everyone uses or knows about those

[waxen rose]

Heroic

[foggy pewter]

how

[waxen rose]

Sorry this is my first time playing halo 2 lol

I just got off playing ce heroic

[foggy pewter]

heroic isn't that hard tho

[waxen rose]

Maybe it isnt to you but it may be to me??

[dry lintel]

You got this, Spartan 🫡

[foggy pewter]

well depends on the game. halo reach heroic is still hard (because of the MCC tickrate being 60 and the seraph shooting twice as fast)

[waxen rose]

Thanks, ill brute force my way through it

[civic frost]

what’s the highest onyx rank anybody has gotten?

[waxen rose]

I play on controller with carpal tunnel idk its all hard for me

[edgy osprey]

That sounds hard enough, forgot to mention you're probably not using the despawns as well

[molten pelican]

@candid solar so who were the other 4 spartan I's other than Johnson?

[edgy osprey]

I second this

[candid solar]

Gilly (Ret. 2506)
Gladys Wilson (Ret. 2525)
Jim James (ret. 2506, killed 2552)
Morales (Ret. 2506)

Additionally, Candidate 047 died to medical complications and there were 294 other Spartan Is.

[steep isle]

Idk if u found this on Halopedia, AI, or you just knew

but alr

[candid solar]

I know where to look, which is usually Halopedia.

[steep isle]

Guessed so

[candid solar]

CIA runs a tight ship. I think the only wikipedia-style non-wikia project I know of that's as good is like, UESP.

So outside of personal disagreements on fiction perspective, I'm content to trust Halopedia for the most part. They vet themselves well.

[shy plume]

Istg if mega construx discontinues the 20th anniversary character pack before I can get my hands on it

[steep isle]

hope not...

[shy plume]

Or the alpha nine drop pods

[steep isle]

I mean there will always be sellers who might have some in stock
The only issue is that they're usually crazy pricey

[candid solar]

Also, the formermost is honestly the best of the three-especially if you doubt check on a page's sources. Knowing where to look for good info is just as good as knowing it, if not better. Part of growing up in a world where being told Wikipedia is a horrible source-but knowing how to navigate to their sources and understanding those sources.

Relying on AI is horrible, because of how much it gets wrong and how horrible it is for... Everything, really.

[shy plume]

I need that rookie figure

[steep isle]

I'm just aiming for both 20th anniversary figure packs

One has Halo 2 only, the other pack has figures from all over the game series

[shy plume]

I just bought the halo 2 anniversary pack

[steep isle]

cook
buy 2 and sell 1 to me

[shy plume]

Should be coming in 2 days

[dry lintel]

Master Chief relies on AI, and he is a hero, so

[steep isle]

A smart AI that can control an entire ship... he's talking about dumb AIs like GPTs

[dry lintel]

joke

[steep isle]

Unreliable is a better word but yea I get it
Cortana and The Weapon are just super buffed up GPTs

[hasty zinc]

I mean, aren't they like actual intelligence?

I consider Halo AI and chatGPT on entirely different levels

[dry lintel]

Yeah. Calling Cortana a buffed up language model is quite the insult lol

[rapid pivot]

The line between artifical intelligence and actual intelligence is kind of blurry

[shy plume]

Im merging a Michael j. Caboose ai with my neurolink

[candid solar]

No, they are actual intelligences. Even VRGL is more than the best AI now, fully capable of independent thought and action without user input and capable of autonomously handling an entire city's mechanized infrastructure to the point of being able to outline goals for specific people as needed.

Smart AIs and Nonvolitional "Dumb" AIs both learn inherently, but the former's learning systems are directly and always made using the direct approximation of an existing human's brain. Dumb AIs are not, but they are capable of functioning of their own accord (To a degree-IIRC they are marginally 3 laws bound), and capable of intuiting and reacting to new information-though are somewhat rigid in their actions and not as 'personable', even if they can have something of a personality and even limited emotion.
