Whose skulls do mission skulls belong to?

[pliant hatch]

they're universal for their specific game, but you can find certain skulls on missions.

[drowsy needle]

hi

[storm flint]

Is there a halo support channel? I deleted a version history of my map and it ended up deleting the entire map!

[tight remnant]

You're... out of luck

[lapis ivy]

Oh that's a bummer how's it going pins

[normal owl]

The support channel is #1075989764026675210 but you may also want to ask #forge-chat . I am really sorry to hear that: what a terrible "oh no..." feeling!

[lapis ivy]

How's it going @normal owl

[tight remnant]

i've had it happen to me but on an alternate version of a map

so it wasnt a huge loss, an annoyance

[normal owl]

Good, just having some popsicles before bed. Yourself?

[tight remnant]

im ok and you?

[lapis ivy]

Doing good glad to hear that bro still collecting catcher mitts

[lapis ivy]

👍

Collecting catcher mitts just got an elite series one with gold color

[normal owl]

oh that's right, did you ever land on a good solution for displaying them?

[normal owl]

Sounds like it looks awesome!

[lapis ivy]

Yeah I could look for a display spot for them I have them in a box atm

I go for different colors

Mostly Rawlings

[normal owl]

This seems like it could display them as a starter solution for very cheap: $9 for 6 of these.

Thanks I'll check it out bro!

[trim saddle]

[thick socket]

Dial up talk? Interesting.

I remember my parents asking "how come we never get phone calls after 8 anymore?"

[safe dawn]

and as someone who hates dealing with mobile hotspot data right now, I don't think I could handle it being any slower 😭

[waxen rose]

The oldest thing in my life was the out of date DARE program, reading rainbow, and watching kids shows on a box TV as a kid

[obsidian wyvern]

[waxen rose]

Had to read this 9 times over just to understand

[cedar turret]

It was from 2020.

[safe dawn]

you can understand that?

[dry lintel]

and the only tech advancements we get to see growing up are NFTs and generative AI and self driving cars that honk at each other...sigh

[obsidian wyvern]

omg that was from 2020

[waxen rose]

I did for 6 seconds then… forgot

[obsidian wyvern]

[dry lintel]

what kind of soup do your taste buds beckon

[safe dawn]

as someone actively coughing up their lungs (and other assorted guts and innards) bc of allergies, I can indeed say it is very wrong

[waxen rose]

You know you’re living the high life if you add an egg to your microwave ramen

[hasty zinc]

you have to earn it

[trim saddle]

no, just need to prove yourself

[hasty zinc]

[trim saddle]

You need to find all hidden dolls in the halo reach CEA maps to upgrade your gif power level

[faint mantle]

Shhh! That's achievable!

Tora does not speak for staff in any shape or form!

[waxen rose]

The way im giving up after 5 minutes

[faint mantle]

Only one Tora does, and it's not this one.

[trim saddle]

find all the dolls in infinite, harder to do because most people find the campaign boring.

[obsidian wyvern]

we should dexecute tora

[dry lintel]

I'd do it for a cheevo

[hasty zinc]

1v1 guardian?

[waxen rose]

Public execution in 2 days

[thick socket]

Hey now, you can trust me! That doll hunt is just the first step of several.

[waxen rose]

Shush shush

[safe dawn]

why are there so many bugs in my room all of a sudden 😭

(it totally can't have anything to do with the chocolate chunk cookie crumbs I forgot in a wrapper last night and woke up to ants literally in the process of stealing it)

[waxen rose]

The moldy banana under your bed might explain it

[safe dawn]

nah checked that too

[signal wedge]

they are waging war on you

[safe dawn]

altho I did find a good reason to stop eating saltine crackers 💀

[frosty siren]

🙂

[waxen rose]

Hi Sheila

[safe dawn]

I found a pack of open club crackers I had left there for at least 4-6 months, and there wasn't even the slightest spot of mold on it 😭

[waxen rose]

So preservatives DO work 😭

[safe dawn]

hell the ants didn't touch it either

and they were all over everything else

including my laptop

[safe dawn]

I guess so 💀

[waxen rose]

That's some ant problem

[safe dawn]

it's not even a lot of them, it's just that they're there that annoys me

heck I even found a red mite that I'd usually only see outside on a piece of concrete on my laptop

like where did bro come from

[waxen rose]

The ants. They're inside your Xbox. Dunk your Xbox in water to get rid of them all /j

[safe dawn]

no 😭

funny story time:

[signal wedge]

a spider lives near my PC

sometimes I see him appear on my screen

[waxen rose]

That's just Jerry, he’s chill

[safe dawn]

I was in a WT (war thunder) match at one point and ran into a group of teamkillers (iirc) after the match they ALL told me to pour water into my PS5 to fix an issue (I play on my laptop) I called them out and their reactions ranged from (iirc) insults to some degree of respect for how I called him out on his hilariously bad attempt at ragebait (I think?)

[waxen rose]

Most of them sound like loser 14-year-olds anyhow

[safe dawn]

War thunder players be built different sometimes, idk if it's the built stupid kind or what

[safe dawn]

nah i'm 90% sure these were grown men 💀

the 14yo's are actually chill

it's the adults that are almost always jerks

[waxen rose]

The way you could smell them through the voice chat 😕

[signal wedge]

I used to bomb teammates who angered me

[safe dawn]

they weren't even in vc lol

[safe dawn]

you sir, are someone I would not hesitate to gun down with my F4U-4B

20mm and extreme prejudice

[signal wedge]

You can try

[safe dawn]

I will succeed

[signal wedge]

dool me and find out

but yeah I don't tolerate kill stealing at all

[safe dawn]

I have the power of God, Anime (learning japanese and have a foot in teh JP plane tree, and Russian bias (much more than a foot in the russian tree), on my side lol

[waxen rose]

Marine npc spotted

[safe dawn]

yk 90% of the time it's not intentionally stealing the kill right

[signal wedge]

I hvae German and USA top tiers

[safe dawn]

it's just people trying to help to get the guy dead

[signal wedge]

I have like 1000 matches in my BF109 it's crazy

[safe dawn]

or then join bc they just killed somene on your tail

oh lawd I hate fighting 109's 😭

[safe dawn]

Unfortunatley I'm capped out at 7.3 USA rn, Russia seems to be a good country for SL so I'm basically just using it to grind with for awhile so I can afford my next 5(?) rank V planes so I can get to some actually decent jets

not even gonna bother crewing any more rank V jets, I just want out already 😭

the F2H-2 aint doing it anymore lol

[signal wedge]

I stopped before the F-18A because I am lazy to grind

[safe dawn]

fair

I just want the F-14, A-10, and F-15E

I might work on the F/A-18 because test driving the premium hornet had me chuckling bc plane drift

but tbh the only other nations that have planes that interest me are japan and russia

I want the Su-30SM (more plane drifting) and the Japan top tier plane (bc Japan)

@calm fiber Can one send youtube links on this channel?

Warned by.... who?

[calm fiber]

You want to find out that badly, huh?

[safe dawn]

tbh yeah, the only time I've seen Gen AI be sane (barely) is when it rated my airsoft kit

ok i would post a thing in the help channel but its bugged on me. does anyone else deal with graphics loading in halo inf campaign?

[meager linden]

Better to find on #1075989764026675210
And if you have graphics issues on the campaign, better to record it and send it to Halo studios support(it's the last thing what you need to do)

[sand solar]

ive looked there and i cant find anything on it

[meager linden]

So better then to record it and send to Halo studios support

While not there I marked and cleared anohter check point

I could see myself play Halo a few years ago. Yet less like it hehe 😆

Its like I learn hehe

that might or might not be a surprise to some of you hehe

Iam not how many see Master Chef as a cool Characterer hehe

[pastel trellis]

Guys how do you use the mutilator's gravity hammer? By doing the melee action or what? Also wondering if it's going to be the same as the actual gravity hammer or not...

[jade gust]

Pretty sure it's just as a melee action

And it didn't seem as strong as the standard gravity hammer from the gameplay we got on Friday, but that makes sense since it is a shotgun first, hammer second

[empty sable]

I wonder the xp gain will be for the new story firefight mode

[sturdy terrace]

Oh as a small bit of Halo news. Halo finally posted on Bluesky to anyone who was waiting for that to happen. (Plus I guess a lil further look at EVA GEN1 in Infinite)

And it just makes sense to be on as many social media platforms as possible if you're a brand and want to communicate with people who follow it

[empty sable]

^.

[sturdy terrace]

In Halopedias case. I just like to share interesting lore and trivia with people aha

And doing it everywhere is fun

[empty sable]

I prefer discord for social media since Twitter and Bluesky is just a political war zone. Same with reddit. At least discord can focus on gaming.

Waiting for next Halo Book news

I'm half way through Fall of Reach

I need to continue Empty Throne

[sturdy terrace]

Gonna be nice to finally see the cover of Edge of Dawn

[pastel trellis]

Edge of Dawn is probably one of the sickest sounding titles of them all

Also it's a mashter cheef story so yessss

Wait why isn't there a channel for halo book/other media discussions here??

[sturdy terrace]

#lore-and-universe

🙂

My domain (home away from home)

Enter please! I love more lore fans!

[ancient lodge]

how should I play all halo games

what the order

[jade gust]

Release order

[sturdy terrace]

Yep. Though the two Spartan games (Assault and Strike) can reasonably be played after Halo 4.

[jade gust]

Aye

[sturdy terrace]

No point splitting those up as they add not a lot outside motive for Palmer

[signal wedge]

1,2,3,4,5,6

[ancient lodge]

but what about halo reach And odst

[jade gust]

ODST and Reach come after Halo 3, before Halo 4

In terms of release order

[sturdy terrace]

Canon order adds a lot of gameplay whiplash

Release order gameplay stuff is added as stuff goes on

[ancient lodge]

I want cannon :<

[jade gust]

Release order is just a much smoother experience

[sturdy terrace]

ODST and Reach get funky

[jade gust]

Aye

[obsidian wyvern]

not recommended

[jade gust]

Like, I have done canon order when replaying the games, but that's because I've been playing these games for so long and know so much that I can do it. But release order is just leagues better for first time playing

[sturdy terrace]

Canon order books is worse aha

I cant imagine someone starting with the Forerunner Saga and having a good time as their first books. Later sure they are fantastic... but first... no

[empty sable]

Love going from Halo Reach straight to CE. You feel like you're slipping in Halo CE.

[fickle drift]

Everyone told me to buy halo 5 I bought it and just realised no one is even playing it

Matchmaking for 20 minutes

[empty sable]

Who's everyone?

[idle plume]

It was me

[empty sable]

How evil! Could have gotten gamepass or skipped the game that shall not be mentioned in it's entirety.

[idle plume]

Miahahahah

[sturdy terrace]

I recommend it so ya dont miss out on what happens. 🙂

[empty sable]

The only thing good about Halo 5 is Chief beating the living hell out of Locke.

[obsidian wyvern]

in slow mo

[empty sable]

Imagine book master chief vs locke lol.

He'd get absolutely nuked.

[jade gust]

I would not say the Chief vs Locke fight is the only good thing in the game (I have plenty of issues with the setup of the fight but I understand what they were trying to do). The gameplay in Halo 5 is solid and there's some fantastic level design throughout

[sturdy terrace]

There is a LOT to like about Halo 5. It would be wrong to say it didnt do a lotta good also

Now was it perfect. Nah. That isnt what I am saying! 🙂

By all means I seen people say its their favourite

And some who say the story is the closest Halo has come to their ideal Halo story!

(I could say a lotta the other side also. But I wanted to focus on the idea of not dismissing the title)

[jade gust]

I think my biggest gripe with the story was putting Chief with Blue Team. Chief should've been separated from them until the second to last level, with Osiris working with Fred, Kelly and Linda to find Chief

Let the older Spartans act as mentors for the newer Spartans and show us how the two generations operate differently

Hey guys, i have a friend on steam who apparently can't link their xbox account to their steam account?

There's not even an option, we're both trying to play MCC and i can't invite them to the lobby but they can???????

[signal wedge]

Elite and Spartan sitting on a tree...

[candid tusk]

It has been a minute since I last played MCC with anyone else, but I don't believe the accounts get linked. You'll need to use in-game tools to invite them using their xbox gamertag. If they're on a modern version of Windows they will have an Xbox app that can be used to manage friend requests.

@high igloo it's noth9to do with hating the project, it's about the legalities associated with it. Can't be discussed here

Good morning everyone

I’m new here

[meager linden]

Just launched another challenge

[waxen rose]

Morning!

Pusha T is a legend, but I am sorry, this was the worst fit of the night: Dandruff Couture.

[azure crest]

How are you doing?

[waxen rose]

Not the dandruff shoulders 😭

[waxen rose]

God hby?

[azure crest]

😫🤣

[azure crest]

I’m good ☺️

[waxen rose]

That's good, I hope it stays that way

[empty sable]

Craig better return in the next halo.

[normal owl]

Lewis Hamilton and Jennie Kim crushed it though. My personal favorites of the night.

[obsidian wyvern]

odds on that being a bot

[azure crest]

This is the first discord server I’ve ever seen to be this peaceful and matured 👏

[empty sable]

Hamilton forming a milita there?

That's some beret.

[waxen rose]

Did you see the met gala master chief image the halo account posted😭

[azure crest]

Lewis 👏

[waxen rose]

alot of empty space

He's gonna kill the competition!

So they making all the weapons customisable or just the few seen in the stream?

[azure crest]

Thank you

[fossil skiff]

This is awesome :0

[hasty zinc]

I had no idea lol

[hasty zinc]

just the ones shown in the stream

[fickle drift]

Can't get used to the newer controls in MCC

I've only ever played halo ce, f for grenade throw and q for melee is really throwing me off

[candid tusk]

Change the controls if you don't like the presets.

[fickle drift]

Yep I am

Not sure how I'll change up switch weapons for ce though

Since originally it was tab and now here tab is to switch graphics, i can't find it in the keybinds

[candid solar]

My change weapons bind has been 1 in pretty much every game for years.

[molten pelican]

How many decades does rockstar need to make a game

[viral dune]

I think more than 1

[fickle drift]

Hot oj

[empty sable]

2 Decades.

[signal wedge]

20 years

[dry lintel]

Rockstar can cook as long as they want for all I care, the expectations are sky high

[fickle drift]

It is the game has a 2 billion dollar budget

[analog knot]

I was told consumers only accept free, "live service" games and developing a product fully before release was never done anymore. Wheres my GTA 6 pre-alpha-still in development release

[dry lintel]

Just look at those leaks a couple years ago lol

[meager linden]

Ehh, I don't care about GTA 6
GTA SA is still my favourite

[dry lintel]

That’s a leek

Okay so um I open YouTube and trailer 2 is out

Not joking, it’s out

[fickle drift]

Aye, seen it. Pretty solid looking.

[empty sable]

The halo trailer has a trailer

[fossil skiff]

What time is the update? 10 or 11 PST? Can’t remember what updates first ingame.

[hasty zinc]

which trailer?

[toxic meteor]

My friend wanted master chief as a penguin which ended up me drawing Kelly as a squirrel. I only doodle not full on draw 100% because I'm trying to get back into drawing but just doing the brain rot sketches make me happy

Congratulations! Now that you've launched, all content about your stream can please go into #1076327824924872755 . That will help you to have an outlet to talk about your [Halo-focused] streaming content and also help us prevent encouraging people to indirectly promote their streams here and outside of channel. Best of luck!

That's great! Going forward, all conversation about your stream will go to that thread then and we can see how you grow!

[haughty wraith]

what time does the operation drop

[frigid flume]

Can you gib me an autograph?

[frigid flume]

Ello!

[meager linden]

9PM

[haughty wraith]

TZ?

[hasty zinc]

anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 hours from now

[fossil skiff]

^

[dry lintel]

1pm pst

[frigid flume]

Is it infinite?

[dry lintel]

just kidding I just said a time

[frigid flume]

My current lappy cant run infinite

So i play mcc mostly

[haughty wraith]

does it release at the same time as the youtube premier?

[frigid flume]

Speedrunning the entire mcc (real)

[hasty zinc]

possibly yeah

[hoary locust]

Anyone having problems playing infinite rn

[fossil skiff]

I blame Iratus

[frigid flume]

Any of you ever play and beat fireteam Raven?

Thats my childhood halo before i got computer

[hoary locust]

Finally trying to grind out to hero (I'm not even halfway I'm at the end of diamond)

[hoary locust]

Some spots around me have the machine

[remote spruce]

Iratus

[frigid flume]

Its very rare now

Like i have the Machine on a mall but its quite rare

[hoary locust]

That's what I've heard but I think there's like 3 of em not far from me where I'm at

Could just be lucky though

[frigid flume]

Halo is not that popular here but the Machine is selling since some Lil guys just love shooting games

[frigid flume]

If ur lucky youd find the Machine that has like the assault Rifle the one where you stand

Bro that one is so good mine is the other one

[frigid flume]

I used to have this one tho but thats like very far away

Like i said halo is not that popular here but some Lil Folks love shooting games so it probably Made alot since the Machine itself is always occupied

[hoary locust]

I've only seen the sitting one

[frigid flume]

Hopefully Its still there until the next time i vist

[frigid flume]

Yea that one is fine tho the one with the Assault Rifle Is So Fun

Its Like Ur Actually There

[haughty wraith]

yeah

[hoary locust]

Its pretty neat how the levels are just restructured CE levels

[haughty wraith]

decent game

[haughty wraith]

Isn't the 2p one using a chaingun

[rare cedar]

oh ya, the new op drops today

but I must sleep

[meager linden]

[trim saddle]

Taco Bell for lunch yay

[stiff stone]

Someone else is having issues w Infinite's servers?

[empty sable]

When is there not issues with Infinite's servers?

[night hare]

new update is out today. started at 11 pacific time

[empty sable]

The amount of times on series x where I'm met with the loading screen of death.

[night hare]

includes ranked reset

[faint mantle]

Usually

[empty sable]

I wonder how much xp you can get with the new firefight playlist and how long the match will be.

[stiff stone]

Ah, the update is not out for me yet

Thats prob y

[night hare]

not out for me yet either

[empty sable]

I think it comes out at 7pm bst.

[night hare]

i hope its not that late and the servers come back cause its my day off 😢

[empty sable]

<t:1746554400:t>

[faint mantle]

Did you put PTO time to play the update? Or is it just your scheduled day off?

[night hare]

scheduled day off

[fossil skiff]

People who use the local time format are heroes

[night hare]

tuesdays and wednesdays

[night hare]

o7

[faint mantle]

Oh good
You would not believe the amount of people who did that during the release of Halo 3 and the infinite flights. They did not end well.

[empty sable]

I clock off in 20 minutes.

Come back an hour before this update.

[night hare]

well i was able to get into a game but my rank is still there lol

ooooh thats interesting two teams of 9 of 9 players

oh no snakebite and kingjay on the other team

[fossil skiff]

in BTB?

[faint mantle]

Ez

[night hare]

ranked arena lmfao

[fossil skiff]

9v9 in ranked!?

[stiff stone]

Yeah this sucks, I'm so close to completing the operation, lil only 200xp more, but the server issues are not letting me get xp after a match

[faint mantle]

Teach them who should've been picked up

[empty sable]

I shame they don't give xp boosts anymore in passes

I have like 84 left lol

[normal owl]

https://tenor.com/view/nine-nine-terry-jeffords-rosa-diaz-charles-boyle-jake-peralta-gif-23124442

[night hare]

oh dont worry they quit before i had to

[jade gust]

Likely not the best for exp farming since unlike Firefight classic, this one is focused players moving through and beating the level. There's a definitively beginning and end to the match unlike Firefight classic where you could theoretically go on for hours

[empty sable]

I usually grind on fiesta personally

[trim saddle]

I have 250 boosts left somehow.

[empty sable]

I get on average 5000-5500 each match and they usually last 15 minutes

So thats on average 20,000 xp per hour

I tried classic and got about 10,000 in 40 minutes so.

Fiesta worked out better for me

[faint mantle]

Dishonorable behavior

[rare cedar]

I feel like I’ve matched with you in FF, Agent

[empty sable]

Possibly.

I am grinding hard at the moment and should get hero between 16th July - 20th July

[rare cedar]

Damn!

[night hare]

nerd alert

[rare cedar]

I haven’t had time to play games lately

My goal is to get it before worlds

that was my goal last year too

[empty sable]

I just want to get it before this new halo comes out. Whenever that may be in 2077

[trim saddle]

Got hero on my main account, running FF only on my other account. 429 games in and im Diamond corporal grade 3 lol

[meager linden]

I was too fast for you

[empty sable]

Didn't some people somehow get hero in the first few weeks by 24/7 playing?

[fossil skiff]

Abused a bot bootcamp bug iirc

[trim saddle]

that and the glitch they could to with a bot bootcamp gametype

[empty sable]

Shame they got rid of bot boot camp. That was my favourite mode before firefight released.

No sweat lords

[unkempt zinc]

what happened to mcc?

[trim saddle]

they got rid of it because of that glitch i imagine. Youre still fighting AI at least.

[harsh vector]

i miss bot bootcamp 😢

[candid solar]

Wait, what glitch?

[trim saddle]

one of the OBJ modes you could get it to where you just kill and the bots couldnt score so the game just lasted forever and you got as much xp as you wanted. (I think)

i never asked how to do it or found out how so I cant say for sure.

[sturdy terrace]

Its how a few got to Hero so fast early on

[jade gust]

Kinda wish I took advantage of that glitch, not gonna lie, I want my Gen 3 Mark VI

[fossil skiff]

Game seems a bit broken right now 😅

[candid solar]

Well, it is update day.

[fickle drift]

is the update now? or in like an hour

[obsidian wyvern]

an hour or 2

[fickle drift]

gotcha tyty

[jade gust]

In about 2 hours

[trim saddle]

hour most likely, and then the new op starts an hour after that

[obsidian wyvern]

whats your rivals playtime buddy

[molten pelican]

London time or freedom time

[obsidian wyvern]

its still an hour or 2 sprok

[molten pelican]

Nuh uh

[rare cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/mind-your-business-gif-5612790341832563794

[dry lintel]

game is acting weird when theres a update inbound? crazy. unheard of.

[trim saddle]

no whey

[analog knot]

Infinite getting an update? Time for the MCC servers to die

I have been asking for cross pollination and I finally got it

[rare cedar]

[night hare]

sure would be nice if they came out and updated us about the update.....

[meager linden]

Good rainy evening people of Halo

[night hare]

morning*

[silk beacon]

morning*

Why are ur days always rainy 😭

[azure crest]

How’s y’all day going?

[silk beacon]

Uhm good. I just got up so a lot to be decided, loll

What about you?

[azure crest]

Cool got up couple of hours ago… don’t think I’m programmed for the day

Feeling sleepy Asf

[silk beacon]

How long u sleep?

[azure crest]

5/6 hours I guess

[azure atlas]

No, please 😢

[silk beacon]

Aw no wonder. Try like 7-8 if you want to feel awake (in my experience)

[silk beacon]

Already happened

[azure atlas]

The Infinite part or MCC? Or both?

[silk beacon]

Infinite, I think

New BP and a lotta funky weapons

[azure atlas]

Oh...I was replying about MCC tho 😅

[silk beacon]

Oh okay, lol. What would they even need to update on that game 💀

[azure crest]

Alright thank you 😊

[short crypt]

Huh

[silk beacon]

Huh what?

[short crypt]

Infinite and MCC are being put into 1?

[silk beacon]

Who the hell told you THAT? XDD

[candid solar]

Problably some goober on Reddit knowing where these insane takes come from.

[analog knot]

I wasnt saying I want that to happen, but MCC apparently went down 😄 all in good fun

[silk beacon]

Mhm. We all know reddit is where all the geniuis' come from

[azure atlas]

As long I can play campaigns, I really don't care 😄

[candid solar]

It's interesting to see a lot of information chains between the site with the 4 that spawns all sorts of evil things, Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, Bluesky, et cetera. You can see a lot of patterns of how people process then distribute even the most harebrained of things.

[molten schooner]

Update time

[analog knot]

You can in fact currently play campaign, good luck out there

[short crypt]

Is the update out

I wanna play

[rare cedar]

Update is out in 1.5 hours

[empty sable]

Yea just got back home and I can't load into any menus

[oak ibex]

Another one?

[empty sable]

Servers must be prepping

[short crypt]

When playing online on Infinite, do you all come across the same players basically every day

[empty sable]

No

[rare cedar]

I’m looking forward to the crazy plays people will be doing with the new weapon

[night hare]

in ranked lobbies yes

[empty sable]

I'll see the same players during the day when playing matches but the next day not so much

[fossil skiff]

Juggernaut with that is gonna be fun

[short crypt]

I always get matched with the same players on Arena

Maybe not many play it

[rare cedar]

Would you rather have that or no games at all

[night hare]

makes sense, since youre playing people with the same csr as you

[empty sable]

Firefight must be popular

[analog knot]

When a game has low population its bound to happen.

[short crypt]

I kinda like it, seeing familiar faces

[night hare]

its been like that in every halo for me

[empty sable]

Does firefight have csr or mmr etc. I find sometimes I do really well in some matches then suddenly I get put in a match where people don't seem to know that you are meant to capture a hill.

[night hare]

always see the same people

[short crypt]

Maybe I'm one of them

[oak ibex]

Ban them and you’ll see the new ones

[analog knot]

https://i.imgur.com/3i0zgJ0.png This was some data collection I did in MCC - in 100 games I only saw the same person a maximum of 3 times 😄

[night hare]

it also depends on your rank too. for example in onyx lobbies youre bound to see more of the same people because theres less people in onyx compared to lets say platinum

[short crypt]

How did you do that

[night hare]

what rank are you in arena? im almost onyx

[analog knot]

I manually wrote down every map/gametype/player I matched in 100 games and then compared

[short crypt]

Ngl I have no idea

[analog knot]

I was trying to debunk the "Halo 3 is the only playable game in MCC" and "you play the same people on repeat" myths

[candid solar]

I usually only run into someone twice in a row at most.

[short crypt]

That is dedication

[analog knot]

Raw data was like this https://i.imgur.com/EslORMx.png

[short crypt]

I can't view anything on infinite or waypount

[rapid hull]

Is it just me or did halo 5 servers go down

[pliant hatch]

yes, servers are down

[obtuse ginkgo]

Can u guys play halo infinite?

Servers dead💀

[meager linden]

Better to wait
Halo studios still cooking

[obtuse ginkgo]

🥲

[radiant glade]

Halo Infinite but the official discord isn't infinite

[sage lichen]

Anyone having issues with starting infinite on Xbox??

[obtuse ginkgo]

Yeah

[obtuse ginkgo]

Servers down I guess

[meager linden]

Looks like everyone have

[sage lichen]

That sucks hopefully it's back soon 😞

[obtuse ginkgo]

Fr :( I wanted pkay some halo

[meager linden]

Maybe they are preparing for an update

Update is really big

So maybe that's the issue

[gaunt saddle]

too bad the update starts at the time when i usually go sleep

💔

[hasty zinc]

there have been azure issues since like 9am

maybe related to that?

[gaunt saddle]

azure?

[hasty zinc]

I'll just say microsoft server issues

[gaunt saddle]

Ah

[analog knot]

Downdetector? b/c their azure status page doesnt indicate any

[hasty zinc]

both teams and outlook were having issues earlier

[analog knot]

Makes sense. Its also why status pages are pointless at times lol

[shell cedar]

Oh sweet, I love the new offline update, 34- Halo Studios really outdid themselves

[hasty zinc]

how do you know it's a halo studios problem and not a msft problem

[earnest dagger]

The update is today so they game is broken right now

[obsidian wyvern]

its funny to blame them for server issues but cmon lol

[pliant hatch]

number company bad

[meager linden]

Chilling right now, I'm collecting puzzles

[meager linden]

13200 pieces

[pliant hatch]

puzzling

[analog knot]

To the consumer its one and the same (and it should be, they are paying for the servers etc and reselling it to their customer). It might not be their fault but they get the money so they get the blame 😄 and then go back to msoft later and complain about their SLAs

[empty sable]

Eating my food chilling

[analog knot]

and the circle of corporate life continues

[meager linden]

[empty sable]

Eh, I can access xbox live fine and it appears halo is the only game I'm having issues with. So I think it's safe to say it's 343/HS

[meager linden]

Just bought 10k credits
HS deserve it

[bright wolf]

I see thanks

[stiff stone]

lol

[meager linden]

Don't ever try to watch to shop
It so cursed lmao

[stiff stone]

I can't even see the new Battlepass

[little bobcat]

its not 2 pm ET yet

[stiff stone]

Ah that explains it

[little bobcat]

but theres also a matchmaking problem so the whole game might break again lmao

[stiff stone]

I actually like the battlepasses in this game, Operations are dumb.

[deep flare]

Does anyone have the same issue as me? I've updated Halo Infinite and now everything keeps loading but nothing happens. I neither can't customize my weapons, armor etc. nor can I play any match.

[prime flicker]

shaders likely

[stiff stone]

Game is broken rn

[crystal hamlet]

dedicated servers are down

[obtuse ginkgo]

Ah servers still down😔

[meager linden]

.

[empty sable]

Uh I just completed a match and got nothing after it?

No rank progression or BP progression

[stiff stone]

What other games are you guys playing while the servers are down?

[meager linden]

My life

[deep flare]

Final Fantasy XV

[hoary locust]

Lifting

[stiff stone]

Cool

I'm going to play AC Origins.

[noble nexus]

Meanwhile i cant even get to the main menu on Steamdeck

[granite sky]

youtube rlly wants me to know about a met gala going on

wow crazi

[obtuse ginkgo]

Havr u guys seen the gta VI trailer yet👀

[deep flare]

yes

[stiff stone]

Yes

[radiant glade]

hope they make more of the Halo parody cartoon for GTA 6

[obtuse ginkgo]

😂😂

[stiff stone]

I think the Story will be better than GTA 5, not sure if it will beat 4.

I hope it does.

[merry mulch]

Looks like HCS year 2 launch coatings are no longer cross core?

[obtuse ginkgo]

Cool graphics also😵

[obtuse ginkgo]

Fr

[deep flare]

At least MCC works

[stiff stone]

It's insane that it runs on a PS5.

[obtuse ginkgo]

Fr🙈

[obtuse ginkgo]

Cant wait new halo games🥲

[meager linden]

GTA SA still the best

[stiff stone]

Halo CE Remake.

[stiff stone]

Agreed.

[obtuse ginkgo]

yeah heard they are doing 2 games at same time?

ce and new

[deep flare]

Just jumped back in to good old Halo 3

[stiff stone]

Yeah prob Halo 7 and the CE Remake.

[jade gust]

I've been thinking of replaying Origins a bunch as of late. It was my favourite of the AC games before I stopped playing them

[meager linden]

Time to cooking

[obtuse ginkgo]

did the new

battlepass came yet'

[meager linden]

20 seconds left

[jade gust]

Why are people so certain a CE remake is coming? It's not a confirmed thing at all

[hasty zinc]

youtubers probably

[obtuse ginkgo]

isnt it?

[night hare]

cause theyre stuck in the past

[hasty zinc]

nope

not even a little bit

[obtuse ginkgo]

that one trailer that halo studio showed

[night hare]

"lets have the developer spend time, resources and money on an old game instead of a new one"

[empty sable]

Why can't we just continue the plot of infinite

[meager linden]

No, they showed what they can do in UE5

[hasty zinc]

just an engine demonstration

like the first infinite trailer thingy

[empty sable]

What's with this dancing around timelines these days

[obtuse ginkgo]

those was from ce

[meager linden]

That not means they will do CE remake

[fickle drift]

It's an engine demo, people just assume it's going to be CE related.
Nothing has been officially announced.

[little bobcat]

Guys are servers up?

[hasty zinc]

you mean like the old games too where they would just skip a bunch of time inbetween entries?

[deep flare]

Idk why but Halo 3 looks graphically much better than Halo Infinite even though Halo 3 is a much older game.

[stuck wind]

Oh what is that

All the older seasons got removed

[empty sable]

No as in all the obsession with time travel etc with media these days

[fickle drift]

Endgame happened.

[dry lintel]

$100 for 100k spartan points is hilarious by the way

[hasty zinc]

well luckily we haven't had any time travel in the halo games yet

[worldly sedge]

Nooooo the servers are down 😭

[little bobcat]

not credits?

[meager linden]

Yes

[worldly sedge]

That’s okay, I can wait

I literally had to wait through another severe thunderstorm in my area

[dry lintel]

no, its $100 dollars for 100k of the stuff you get from playing the game. actually terrible rate

[stiff stone]

Cuz of the assets they showed, in an interview one of the higher ups in MS mentioned big plans for the anniversary and we are close to the 25th anniversary of CE.

[obsidian wyvern]

forgot how much I hate how os looks in this game

[fickle drift]

Shields in general look bad imo.

[obsidian wyvern]

ugly bright white was not the play

[fickle drift]

The colour option is cool to have for accessability but still.

[weary kite]

Okay I’m sorry 25 bucks for 3 Tiers

[stiff stone]

Has anyone been able to buy the new battlepass yet?

[worldly sedge]

I’m guessing the Internet today just isn’t in the right mood lol

[jade gust]

All the Halo specific assets in the demo were repurposed from Infinite, the exception being the Magnum since that's not in Infinite

[granite sky]

its nice u can exchange spartan points for credits

im not big on dumping $100 per update so this is helpful

[quaint kettle]

Wait you can?

[jade gust]

Like I just said to Haitaripelle, the majority of the assets shown in the UE5 demo were from Infinite

[little bobcat]

wait what

[obsidian wyvern]

??

[remote spruce]

I’m updating it right now

[crystal hamlet]

Does your game also freeze after a certain amount of timer?

[granite sky]

oh wait false alarm i misread it

[quaint kettle]

Ah ok

[obsidian wyvern]

too good to be true

[weary kite]

No you can’t

[quaint kettle]

Got me confuse, i thought some amazing thing has had happened

[remote spruce]

But it’s really bad weather right now. Lag is inevitable

[dry lintel]

no instead you can pay $100 to get 100k spartan points and then blow 75 dollars on Haunted

[obsidian wyvern]

u can buy spartan points with real money

as if anyone needed more lol

[little bobcat]

bro dont give me hope 😭

[harsh vector]

who is even buying spartan points...

[granite sky]

ye i was wrong. can spend money to get spartan points NOOOPPPEEE

[obsidian wyvern]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dry lintel]

whales

[obsidian wyvern]

@/wade

[quaint kettle]

I think thats the point

[dry lintel]

and suckers

[little bobcat]
