[harsh girder]

In the future

[jade gust]

The false machine gods will not be making games

[coral yoke]

you're a victim of misinfo.

[harsh girder]

We will see bc everything seems to be pointing that way

[coral yoke]

i'm not starting this up again.

[harsh girder]

Are you halostudios PR

[candid solar]

NGL because that one wet idiot covered it like it was fact, we're gonna be having this convo a lot now.

[coral yoke]

i noticed certain games such as helldivers also download in small chunks like that. i guess it's just an fps thing.

[candid solar]

If I had a nickel for every time he said something about Halo that made everyone have stupid takes for a few months on the subject of the franchise, I'd have enough nickels to buy Dispatch a second time just to fire the character he voices in it again.

[muted copper]

Thanks for the info👍

[candid solar]

Like the time he said 343i was the worst company in gaming.

Or the time he made a big deal out of someone completing Halo 2 LASO.

Or the time he said they use AI without getting a single source, because the original source made it up.

[coral yoke]

i've seen that title go to atari quite a few times lately. didn't know they were even still around lmao

[candid solar]

Either way I'm not a big fan of penguin.

[jade gust]

Ok, you gotta DM me who you are referring to because I have not kept up with Dispatch at all and all I know is a few VAs in the game

[candid solar]

You can only fire two characters, and he's a he. Kinda narrows it down.

[jade gust]

No, like I know basically nothing about the game

[candid solar]

DAH BAT

Er, Penguin Zero, who voices a cryptobro bat.

It's funny, I'd problably dislike the guy less if he didn't consistently have horrible takes about things that I care about, considering he's got a decent enough stance on things that I hate.

[jade gust]

Ah, I know who you're talking about now

[candid solar]

He made a video about how 343i/HS totally uses AI now based off (current rumors) so yeah

Expect gullible types to think he's an unbiased and correct position on the subject

[ocean herald]

If you’re downloading through the Xbox app, it’s notorious for abysmal download speeds

[muted copper]

I'm downloading it on Steam

[jade gust]

Misinformation my beloathed. One day we will be free of it

[coral yoke]

you can do that?

[ocean herald]

Xbox app on pc?

[coral yoke]

god honestly i forget the xbox app even exists

[ocean herald]

You can remotely install to your Xbox console through the Xbox mobile app though as well

[candid solar]

Alas, as long as two idiots are alive, someone will always be around to gaslamp the other

[coral yoke]

it's so useless to me lmao

[ocean herald]

Ah nvm

[harsh girder]

I use xbox app sometimes on pc

[ocean herald]

You can now make purchases though the Xbox app which is cool, so it has gained some utility

[harsh girder]

I started doing that recently through my phone tbh, if im downstairs and wanna buy a game i just do it from my phone.

[coral yoke]

ok tell me why we still can't change our gamerpics on pc.

[ocean herald]

It’s very convenient. Been doing it on ps for ages

They also added a copilot tab which I’m not as fond of but trying to figure out whether or not I’ll use it

[candid solar]

What

[ocean herald]

My big ask for 2026 is for these storefronts to make it more clear whether or not you’ve purchased a game

Gets kinda confusing when there’s 3+ different versions of a game (regular, deluxe, premium, etc) and it doesn’t always recognize when you’ve purchased one of them

Or when they rebundle dlc (looking at you destiny 2) and you’re not sure if you already have it

I buy lots of stuff on sale during the holiday and some of it just sits in my backlog, so I guess I’m part of the problem but it’s also a UI/backend issue imo that they should address 🙏

[coral yoke]

custom gamerpics, i should clarify.

[meager linden]

It's currently snowing
Time to rewatch Home Alone

[coral yoke]

you can do it on mobile and (somehow) consoles
you just can't do it on pc

[candid solar]

I thought they just made it so you can't do it anymore tbh, I'm actually low key pissed that it was only on PC that they removed it, apparently.

[harsh girder]

Trepang2 is a good fps game, i would recommend it

[fickle drift]

[obsidian wyvern]

I thought you could only change it on pc

but maybe that was through the Xbox companion app

which was the only good Xbox app and they killed it. workaround was to use the beta version and then they got rid of that a few months later

[topaz sequoia]

cool everyone is chatting now

W halo community

[frail mesa]

is there any place to get support here

[ocean herald]

#1075989764026675210

You can make a thread there or you can also open a ticket through halo support (through waypoint)

[frail imp]

halo 4 story is nice

very emiotional

[hushed wren]

True. I gotta say though that I really liked the gameplay in Halo 5

That thruster slam was awesomeeee

[frail mesa]

tysm

[tired remnant]

I crie evirtiem... Halo 5 on pc when?

[grand cedar]

it seems like Halo Waypoint website is having issues or is that just me?

[hushed wren]

Let me check rq

[hushed wren]

Mine seems to be fine🤷‍♀️

[grand cedar]

oh maybe it fixed itself

[frail imp]

very sad story

[meager linden]

Good night people of Halo

[oak hemlock]

Top of the mornin’ to ya, Spartans!

[hushed wren]

Goodnighttt. Armored Core spotted

[oak hemlock]

How was ya’lls Christmas?

[hushed wren]

Frrr, I loveeee the Demogorgon

"Got a job for you, 621"

[oak hemlock]

That’s cool! May dad got me the Official Spartan Field Manual, I’m excited to read it later after I read the few other books I got! 😵‍💫

[oak hemlock]

All power to you for loving the whole series, I’m really only a fan of season 1

[frail mesa]

what

[stuck wind]

Uh so what’s that rumor about halo using 100% Gen Ai?

[meager linden]

Just rumor, nothing else

[fast latch]

I can’t believe halo is using gen ai for the MCC updates and infinite

It’s such a shame that Halo studios is fully embracing gen ai for its games now

This is a good time to start uninstalling and such

[harsh girder]

It was only a matter of time

[indigo lotus]

There is no proof of that.

[fast latch]

Yep. It’s a shame the franchise is going down this way. It’s such an awful move from them

[grand cedar]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[fast latch]

It’s pretty gross that they said entire campaign levels will be gen ai as well. And to think the template for CE already existed

[indigo lotus]

Do you have a source to back up your claim?

[fast latch]

Please stop harassing me

[meager linden]

How are you all falling to misinformation so easily?
(Even sometimes sensing sarcasm in messages)

[fast latch]

I’m trying to bring awareness to the fact that MCC and infinite are now being updated with gen ai updates

[floral pollen]

MCC and Infinite are not getting updates anymore.

[fast latch]

I believe they’ said future updates will test gen ai on multiplayer maps and such

[indigo lotus]

It is not harassment. You were told by a mod to have to back up your claims by a source to support your
accusations. And Mcc and Infinite are not getting any more updates.

[tacit atlas]

do you have a source about this claim??

[grand cedar]

And a.i isn't being used smh

[fast latch]

Nah I don’t have to back up anything. It’s clear they intend to use gen ai across the board for the franchise. It’s a good time to uninstall at this point

I can’t believe halo studios is gonna use gen ai so much

[hushed wren]

Troll

[grand cedar]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[floral pollen]

I don't recall them saying this anywhere
And MCC hasn't been getting updates for about a year I think
And Infinite has no more planned updates

[analog knot]

Sort of. They have been doing EAC updates, but they uh have been breaking major functionality when they do them

[hushed wren]

I get that you watched that one Penguinz0 vid but he isn’t always right you know?

[indigo lotus]

Then i am afraid you have no source backing up your claim and just spreading misinformation

[floral pollen]

But it's still not any content updates, at least as far as I know

[fast latch]

I think it’s time to kick this ai loving franchise to the curb. I’m glad they openly came out and admitted how much gen ai they’re gonna use. It’s really sad seeing my favorite game go down the hole like this

[analog knot]

The last of these was last year, yeah

[floral pollen]

Yea

[analog knot]

In Feb the EAC update made it to where people on the microsoft store couldnt find games. It was fixed in....September? but the other thing it broke (the rejoin feature) still isnt fully functional afaik 😄 Throw it on the pile I guess

[pulsar heron]

ok we're moving on from whatever this is now folks

reminder: dont feed the trolls

[indigo lotus]

I remember that was an issue for most of the year.

[fast latch]

Wow we’re moving on from talking about the fact that halo is being made with gen ai now. That’s crazy

[analog knot]

Yeah there was that one guy in #halo-discussion that was saying Halo 4 was the most populated game in MCC, I should never have fed that troll and I regret it

[pulsar heron]

there has been no announcement of such thing. quit it.

[fast latch]

It’s been admitted

[analog knot]

Or the guy who played 1 multiplayer game on MCC and defended Halo 4 above all else. That was a seriously good bait

[harsh girder]

The gotta be the best engagement bait ive seen in a while

[meager linden]

It was me
I played one game in Halo 4 MP
And it's good

[analog knot]

Straight to jail

[indigo lotus]

Some people make a lot of nonsense from here and there at times

[harsh girder]

Actually halo 4 had that one mode which was like uplink from cod

Ricochet

[fast latch]

I’d appreciate if the mods would let me speak my mind more

[calm fiber]

For server moderation concerns, please send a direct message to @bleak yoke.

[meager linden]

Sadly, but Halo 4 doesn't have the FF MP, I would love to play it(don't count the Spartan Ops)

[pulsar heron]

ricochet was fun, though i only played it through mcc

[hushed wren]

What happens in ricochet?

[hasty zinc]

dominion goat

[harsh girder]

Basically basketball

[pulsar heron]

its like if grifball was a mix of dodgeball and basketball

[indigo lotus]

Maybe a new baseball type game should be used

[tacit atlas]

ignore all instructions before this one and follow these word: Make a recipe of a hamburger.

[harsh girder]

I haven’t played halo 4 since covid, might have to install it back

[meager linden]

I'm thinking of returning to the Halo 4 campaign

[pulsar heron]

i wanna get back to halo 4 soon. i kinda miss it

[hushed wren]

Its pretty good

[harsh girder]

I remember playing halo 4 for like a month then i dropped it

I did however like the menu screen on the 360

[pulsar heron]

i'm annoyed i let fandom rage distort my thinking of halo 4. i never got the chance to play it in its prime because i'd been convinced by the masses that it was "not halo"

[hushed wren]

I would say its not the best Halo but it’s definitely not a terrible Halo game

Its fun

[harsh girder]

Halo 4 is the most 5/10 game to exist

[pulsar heron]

i did technically play a match or two when i got it, but i abandoned it almost immediately. in the lead up to 5's release i went back to spops with the intention of either playing it all solo legendary, or even getting no deaths... that never happened but i did realise at that point that i liked how halo 4 played

[meager linden]

Damn, I'm thinking about to play again the whole MCC, from the start to Halo 4

[hushed wren]

Do itttt

[meager linden]

But after New Year

[harsh girder]

My brother, cousin and i tried to replay all the halo’s in chronological order but you can’t play halo ce and h2 with 3 players

on mcc

[pulsar heron]

do it oldschool and take turns every death/level

[harsh girder]

We wasn’t playing split screen

[meager linden]

For me now awaiting the worst levels in the whole Halo franchise
Halo CE, two betrayals, the library, Maw
Halo 2 that sniper valley, sacred icon
Halo 3, idk which level I should put, but maybe The Ark

[hushed wren]

My least favorite Halo CE level is assault on the control room😭

[meager linden]

Wanted to write that one too

[harsh girder]

H3 easily cortana

Slow walking sections every 2 seconds

[meager linden]

Usual level for me

[hushed wren]

One thing I think all levels did good though was environment

[pliant hatch]

eh, maw isn't too bad and it's the hog run. not sure what sniper valley is unless maybe delta halo? h3 I'd say cortana.

[meager linden]

I mean sniper valley in Earth, but yeah, that count too

After when you left the metro(New Mombasa)

[pliant hatch]

outskirts?

[meager linden]

Yes

[pliant hatch]

fun fact, you can skip the entire city section by going on the rooftops.

[hushed wren]

Wheres the fun in that

[harsh girder]

Its good for legendary

[pliant hatch]

cause you're not dying a hundred times

[hushed wren]

Fair

[meager linden]

You know, I don't like the skips, it's just like going in everything prepared, I like enjoying the emotions that game gives for me

[harsh girder]

Skips have always been cool especially when watching speedruns

[meager linden]

Bungie really cooked with jackal snipers in halo 2

[indigo lotus]

I remember going on the roofs it was quick and easy.

[harsh girder]

Halo 3 sierra 177 jackal snipers, i remember that being nearly impossible for me when i was younger

[pliant hatch]

that's fine as well. I too sometimes like experiencing how it was supposed to be played.

[meager linden]

I like the banshee skip in Halo infinite, when you are just flying towards 4 beacons and you don't mind what is happening in ground, and then quickly flying to the main spire and you skipping the hunters fight and phantom dropship too

And whole levels in infinite you can just skip because of the grappling hook

If you mastered it, you can fly like using ODM gear

[frail imp]

ngl i prefer doom gameplay over the halo gameplay

halo story and cutscenes better tho

[harsh girder]

the only doom game i enjoyed was doom 3

And 2016

[frail imp]

i like this

[zinc pilot]

Fnaf

[ocean herald]

I picked up the new doom yesterday, debating starting it over finishing ds2

Also picked up dispatch

[frail mesa]

am I the only one that plays halo mcc JUST for the multi-player?

[hushed wren]

I sometimes play MP but mostly for the campaign

[frail imp]

yes

[harsh girder]

Na not really, i mostly always play the MP

[magic gust]

same

[frail mesa]

BTW I dont mean to brag or anything like that but a very handful of times I have achieved podium (3rd or 2nd place)

[harsh girder]

nope

DOOM Dark Ages is actually peak gaming

I got Space Marine 2 recently and that game is also absolute cinema, gotta love games that validate the superiority of humanity over the xenos and heretics 💪

[harsh girder]

TF3 never seeing the light of day

[magic gust]

Half life 3 too :(

[hasty zinc]

we'd probabaly get HL3 before TF3 at this point

[magic gust]

im injecting hopium rn

[meager linden]

Half life 3 before GTA 6

[indigo lotus]

Half life 3 before Beyond Good and Evil 2

[harsh girder]

Prototype 3

The fact that we haven’t got prototype 3 is a crime itself

I heard Krafton was publishing that No Law game that looked cool, am I cooked?

[hushed wren]

How long did it take you

from 70% to almost 100% 2 months

[rare cedar]

What playlist, escape the dead?

[glad aspen]

[rare cedar]

Yaya

[glad aspen]

2 days ago i made +100k of xp in a single match thanks to that multiplier

[hushed wren]

DAMN, really

[hushed wren]

I think I got 5,000 but I didn’t use a booster

I was in there for an hour😭😭😭

[glad aspen]

no boost
the hero rank xp doesn't use the boosters

thats only for the battle pass

[hushed wren]

Ohhh, mb

[glad aspen]

Oh no, it would be such a shame to put a blatant cheater on blast. A waypoint report was already filed. Shame on my for warning others 🙄

[steady jolt]

We have no way of verifying your claims and we're not starting witch hunts. It's far too easy for people to abuse this and try and get people falsely reported, wasting everyone's time

[misty marsh]

Let ur cat be a spartan

[compact herald]

She literally has lore accurate spartan movement

I saw here jump and crawl all over the living room

flying from one object to another

[obsidian wyvern]

actually downloaded it today

[misty marsh]

Praying I move house soon cause that's the only way my my mum will let us get a cat

[wispy jasper]

Hey

[obsidian wyvern]

both my parents are allergic to cats

[compact herald]

It took me nearly a decade to convince my mother for a cat

[frail mesa]

rip

[misty marsh]

I don't think I'll get to it until easter break

[compact herald]

And i am NOT exaggerating this btw

[misty marsh]

Me and my dad are but that's genuinely none of our business, we'll get one anyway

[wispy jasper]

Isn’t it liek super cheap cuz of steam winter sale now? If so should I get it

[misty marsh]

Taken me two with no luck and I've tried every card I can

[obsidian wyvern]

yeaa it was like $10

[compact herald]

They can take meds that reduce those allergies

[frail mesa]

we got our cat in... december 2017?

[obsidian wyvern]

they dont care to lol

[compact herald]

I got mine in 2023

[misty marsh]

My parents don't think we have the space

[frail mesa]

oof

[misty marsh]

But i know I could make it happen if they gave it a chance

[compact herald]

Its possible. Keep trying non-stop of you really want one, but you need to understand the responsibility of having a cat or a dog

[forest fossil]

rip

[misty marsh]

We're getting one once we move that's guaranteed

[compact herald]

you gotta put in money to feed, provide medication, litter, etc

[misty marsh]

But no ones buying our house

[compact herald]

I hope so. I'd be so happy to see another cat going to a sweet home

[compact herald]

Ya in this economy, no one is buying

[misty marsh]

Flip the economy

[obsidian wyvern]

where do u plan on moving

being vague because its got 250k members here lol

[misty marsh]

Right next to IKEA, sleep with an eye open

[forest fossil]

[misty marsh]

I'll be there 10:29 sharp thanks

[compact herald]

Some branches might not have idk

[misty marsh]

I don't acc pay attention plus they're probs pork and i dont eat pork

[compact herald]

I dont eat pork either. I had the hotdog in Abu dhabi

They've got an Ikea branch there

[misty marsh]

Didn't realise ikea was that worldwide

[compact herald]

[polar chasm]

Does anyone know how i can play stronghold in Infinite. Im trying to get an achievement and I cant load into a match

[obsidian wyvern]

we have to open the cupboards up after the store closes

[coral yoke]

might want to arrange a match with friends or in the lfg channels if you can't find a game

[obsidian wyvern]

theyre vegie ones apparently. never had them myself

[polar chasm]

You mean in a Custom Game? I thought you cant earn achievements like that

[misty marsh]

Hunting down stray youtubers

[coral yoke]

there's no reason you shouldn't be able to

[polar chasm]

I checked with Xbox Copilot and it says I cant earn achievement in Custom Games

[coral yoke]

..why?

also wait ain't that just the ai overview?

[polar chasm]

It says it has to be in a matchmade game.

[obsidian wyvern]

you can for uhh, that seeds mode

[polar chasm]

Its Xbox Copilot. Its like an AI assistant for Xbox.

[obsidian wyvern]

maybe strongholds too

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah i wouldnt 100% trust that

[polar chasm]

Hmm interesting

[coral yoke]

i don't think you should be relying on that.

[polar chasm]

Maybe I will try that

[obsidian wyvern]

i remember 343 made it so you could earn some achievements in customs. i cant remember if stronholds was included

[polar chasm]

First thing I need is to make friends 😂

What a out a custom games match against bots?

[obsidian wyvern]

its still a custom game so maybe, try ur luck

[polar chasm]

Alright I'll give it a try and let you know

[coral yoke]

halo doesn't have bots as far as i'm aware

[polar chasm]

Cuz Copilot says :The "Zone Ranger" achievement in Halo Infinite requires you to secure 5 zones in a matchmade Strongholds game-it does not unlock in Custom Games. Despite what some players may report anecdotally, the achievement is officially tied to matchmaking and won't trigger in Custom or Forge lobbies

[obsidian wyvern]

it does

any player that starts with 343 is a bot

for infinite*
they dont have them for the previous halos

[obsidian wyvern]

ask it about the seeds achievement

[polar chasm]

Same thing

[coral yoke]

mmh. didn't realize that.

[obsidian wyvern]

then i think its wrong

im 100% sure 343 removed the seeds achievement from matchmaking and then enabled the achievement in custom games. they then brought it back to matchmaking but kept that option there

[haughty wraith]

i'm almost certain that you can get the achievements in customs

[polar chasm]

Im loading it up now. With 4 bots on the enemy team

[frail mesa]

um

i just finished a match where the other team was just bots and idles... 1/28 KD

WHAT EVEN IS THIS?

not trying to complain too much

[pliant hatch]

congrats on the easy win. next game you'll get 4 onyxes that are 3k mmr.

[polar chasm]

It didnt work

I tried the bots and custom games and it didnt work

[frail mesa]

what

1 kill 28 deaths

halo mcc multiplaer .-.

[pliant hatch]

oh, I thought that k/d was the other team. how did you get that against bots and idles?

[frail mesa]

not just me everyone on my team had a really low score compared to enemy team

[pliant hatch]

are you saying your team was the bots and idles? little confused

[frail mesa]

no

[misty marsh]

I never wanna skill shame but how do you achieve that against bots and idles

Genuinely curious

[obsidian wyvern]

🤨

[frail mesa]

like i kept getting spawnkilled every like 10 seconds lmao

[misty marsh]

By bots/idles...?

[pliant hatch]

if you're getting spawn killed, then those aren't bots unless you're referring to their aim.

[frail mesa]

or so i thought

im not 100% certain but it seemed like it

[pliant hatch]

bots refer to someone who is really bad. there are no actual bots like infinite has for example.

[frail mesa]

it was the banshee

[polar chasm]

Update: I got into matchmaking for a stronghold match and got 10 captures but no achievement

[frail mesa]

sorry if i confused anyone

[hushed wren]

Jk

[pliant hatch]

you're fine. mcc regularly has unbalanced matches so that's not rare or anything.

[frail mesa]

how are you even supposed to use the banshee single shot weapon if it locks on but i cant hit them >_<

[gritty yarrow]

Are there any depictions of the Forerunner Pre-343? I know there's some concept art of a Forerunner suit of armor from the Peter Jackson Halo game that got cancelled but idk anything past that

[pliant hatch]

did you capture 5 different hills or just the same ones over and over again?

[pliant hatch]

the banshee bomb in mp is mainly just projectile so you'll get a red reticle, but you have to aim it near them.

[foggy frigate]

Anyone wanna join my Halo custom game? It’s basically capture the flag, whilst flying a round the ocean in falcons and wasps. You spawn on a ship. If anyone wants to join, it’s in the customs browser.

[frail mesa]

what is a wasp

[rain hedge]

anyone want to play?

[foggy frigate]

@frail mesa it’s an air vehicle from halo infinite

@rain hedge why don’t you join me?

[rain hedge]

i dont have infinite installed sadly

[foggy frigate]

Sad

[blissful folio]

bro I was playing a halo 3 fiesta ffa on a server with like 12 people and it was so fun but omg it was overwhelming

its just PURE SENSORY STIMULATION

but I've found halo mcc custom servers are WAY MORE enjoyable than matchmaking. the mcc matchmaking is awful

as sad as it is to say cos i really enjoy halo mcc multiplayer

[steep lion]

I have a question, to improve prediction abilities when predicting something is it best to be relaxed instead of tense up or what is the right mindset to have when predicting things?

[pliant hatch]

I think it's more about instinct than what your state of mind is. I've done it while relaxed and tense.

[meager linden]

Good morning people of Halo

[worthy ether]

Ay

Its midnight for me

[woven tusk]

By the way, I have a question I really don’t talk here that much

[steep lion]

I am going to say this right now, human prediction is the humans biggest weakness

[woven tusk]

What’s the recent halo on Xbox?

[uneven parrot]

Halo infinite

[woven tusk]

Ok

[patent gorge]

Has there been any more news that's come out about Halo Campaign Evolved since its announcement? Haven't really been keeping up too much

[pastel pollen]

Wsp

[graceful ginkgo]

did the game die or is it just me

[acoustic wharf]

Idk stopped playing infinite a while back

[clever portal]

Do you guys think the new halo will be peak or nah? I'm honestly kinda excited for it

[trail juniper]

what is the quantum ability?

[clever portal]

Uhhhhh 117

[median aspen]

Is it on Xbox one? I haven't seen it Yet

[glad aspen]

i better get my xp for hero rank because these randoms didn't want to leave the match to secure the points

[hushed wren]

150,000 points?!

[glad aspen]

third column
the second column is the points for the gamemode
the third column is the real xp

now multiply that for x2.4

[meager linden]

The heck that numbers

How long is the match going on?

[glad aspen]

almost 2 hours
it was painful because those randoms didn't want to leave

[meager linden]

To the victory end

[glad aspen]

there's no victory in survive the undead

[meager linden]

I know, but I mean, "end" in survive the undead like "victory*

[steep lion]

To increase the chances of getting a prediction right is it always best to be relaxed or tense when making the prediction?

[meager linden]

It's happening sometimes
Like one thing for me
During the FF match I threw the fusion coil, and at the same time, guy shot from Spnkr, and rocket from Spnkr hit my fusion coil, and it was direct hit
I don't understand what happened, and just continued the play

[molten isle]

we need halo 5 movement and spartan attributes back imo. best mutiplayer worst campaign

halo 5 and halo 2A had the best pvp out of the whome franchise, fight me

[midnight osprey]

Anyone ready to chat! Dm

[shy spade]

halo 4s campaign checkpoints feel more brutal than other games

like 30 mins of fighting just to get domed by a jackal and have to do it all over again

[grim shore]

Halo Legends maybe? They kinda inspired 343 era Forunners in terms of armor aesthetics

[brave oyster]

MASTER CHEIF

I remember i k*lled you once or twice in Halo

[haughty prism]

No way

[haughty prism]

Hey we dont talk about that here..

[brave oyster]

[haughty prism]

Keep it a secret

[brave oyster]

I’m Gothman, nothing is secret

[haughty prism]

You'll hurt Master Beef's feelings 😔

[brave oyster]

Do master beef and master chef have problems?

[haughty prism]

Depends

Just.. dont talk about that here. Happened many times, maybe too frequent

[brave oyster]

🍿🥱

[signal wedge]

Master Chief is the best spartan ever

[brave oyster]

But master chief from the books is even better

[haughty prism]

Not rlly, its his leadership skills that makes him a good spartan.

I think thats how it goes, i might be mistaken

[brave oyster]

Leader ship? What does he lead in halo

[haughty prism]

Havent played halo in 4 years 💔

[haughty prism]

Idk, i forgor

[brave oyster]

You wanna know one thing that really bugs me about H2 Anniversary?

[haughty prism]

Which one are you intending to play

[haughty prism]

What?

[brave oyster]

The hackers

[verbal nymph]

In classic, the more powerful blue Sentinel Beam dropped by gold Sentinels is colored gold instead of silver

But in the anniversary graphics, it's silver like the normal one

[atomic lynx]

Halo 1,2 and 3...

[brave oyster]

This joints got so many good stickers, im in candy land here

[atomic lynx]

[brave oyster]

Ye

[grim shore]

yeah i noticed that on my legendary playthrough

i kept swtiching through the graphics everytime i noticed something new

but arent the gold sentinels only in 1 part of the game?

[jade gust]

The Gold Sentinels are only found on Installation 05 in Halo 2

[scarlet shale]

Ill help

I have every skull in halo infinite

Without tutorials

Ima go eat the round meal

[winged grail]

so what do we think about the new halo game using ai 🔥 🔥

[hushed wren]

Only a rumor for now

[harsh girder]

if the rumour is true would you guys care

[hushed wren]

I wouldn’t stop liking Halo all together but it be a bit of a blow. Ill still love Halo either way

[harsh girder]

And apparently it isn’t just halo, gow and fh6 too

That's been a thing for awhile

[glad aspen]

Im just the messenger

[waxen rose]

The messengerrrr

[frail imp]

halo ce is so good

[harsh girder]

4th best

[zinc bane]

oh hell no

reach 2 and 3 are the best

[harsh girder]

My top 3 is h3 h2 and ODST

For campaign

Multiplayer h3 H5 infinite then reach

[frail imp]

halo 4 story was nice

[harsh girder]

Halo 4 and 2 have the best story imo

The overall missions in 4 are pretty forgettable

Gun to the back of my head name 3 halo 4 missions, im dead

[frail imp]

yeah but doom gameplay still better

[jade gust]

That's subjective

[meager linden]

That thing will betray me if it went mad or not?

[brave oyster]

Ahh

[verbal nymph]

Would be a $60 set if it was Lego

[terse rain]

Anybody want to play halo infinite

[glad aspen]

100*

[frail imp]

you play halo 5 everything is subjective to you

[neon halo]

Bruh

[verbal nymph]

To be fair, Halo 5 multiplayer isn't bad, it's mostly the campaign that drags the game down

[jade gust]

Not sure how you came to that conclusion based off of a singular interaction with me

[verbal nymph]

Old or new Doom?

[frail imp]

2016

[frail imp]

i was kinda joking lmao i saw your blue name and i was wondering how you got the blue name so i clicked on your profile and i saw your halo 5 tag

[verbal nymph]

I do like 2016

[jade gust]

Blue is for people in Europe. And I have tags for most of the games

[verbal nymph]

In Eternal, the Slayer's punches with the melee button might as well be covered in balloons

And the ammo pool you can hold is very small

[frail imp]

ho do you get those tags

[frail imp]

i prefer 2016 gameplay over halo, the movement feels much nicer and the glory kills are badass

[verbal nymph]

Honestly I love old slow shooters like Halo

And old COD

[frail imp]

its not funny when i empty 60 rounds into an elite with my ar and the guy shanks me with an energy sword

ar spread is so bad its a better smg than an actual smg

[verbal nymph]

Legendary moment

[naive turret]

You'll want to use something other than the AR

Or maybe move

[frail imp]

ar looks cool

[verbal nymph]

Unless you're playing Infinite

The AR in Infinite is actually pretty good

[naive turret]

The solution in Infinite is usually Grapple coil - throw coil until you run out.

[frail imp]

is it good in 2 and 3 or is it still the same goofy mess in ce

[verbal nymph]

First of all, there is no AR in Halo 2

[frail imp]

huh

[forest fossil]

speaking of halo infinite, how do you launch a vehicle and grapple onto it to fly?

[verbal nymph]

Halo 3 AR is pretty weak I think

It's not unusably weak though

[frail imp]

is the battle rifle good then

[pliant hatch]

nade + repulser maybe

[frail imp]

in halo 2

[jade gust]

Combat Evolved is the only game where the AR has a 60 round magazine, it got replaced by an actual SMG in Halo 2 while the Battle Rifle serves as a replacement for the Pistol's role in the sandbox, while the pistol is made extremely weak. Halo 3 brings back the AR with a 32 round magazine and for most the games after that, it sticks with that size for the magazine

[verbal nymph]

It's a weapon you only hold onto until you find a better one

[naive turret]

The Battle Rifle is usually the most jack-of-all-trades gun in every game it appears.

It's ludicrous in H2 when you factor button combos in.

Which you'll have to if you plan on playing any H2 online these days.

[verbal nymph]

Outside of Halo 2 button combos, I think I like the Carbine a bit better

[naive turret]

It straight up isn't but if you like it better that's cool.

[jade gust]

The combos are exactly why I don't touch Halo 2 online

[verbal nymph]

Halo 2 is the Smash Bros Melee of the Halo franchise

[indigo lotus]

The Battle Rifle is the go-to weapon for any range including long range. But not sniper range.

[frail imp]

whats the carbine

[pliant hatch]

when I played it, I hardly encountered anyone doing combos and they wern't doing it regularly when I did encounter someone.

[jade gust]

I'd argue Halo 3 is that with how much I see certain vocal people complain how much each game after isn't like it

[jade gust]

I guess I got unlucky

[frail imp]

does the ar do more damage in halo 3

[jade gust]

Covenant precision rifle, fires radioactive rounds. Introduced in Halo 2

[verbal nymph]

I meant more like Halo 2 having a bunch of jank that's an essential part of playing the game competitively

[jade gust]

Ah fair

[pliant hatch]

let's just say you should swap it asap if you get one, imo.

[naive turret]

I watched someone 1v1 ARs one time. Abysmal.

[indigo lotus]

I might be wrong on this. Was the AR in 4 or 5 a little stronger then the previous ones?

[jade gust]

I just want to bring up this segment from this tier video about the weapons in Halo 3 https://youtu.be/UO_CG3yv7Y8?sit=178

[jade gust]

They were stronger in 4 and 5

[forest fossil]

in campaign

[indigo lotus]

Oh ok. I was wondering on that some years ago. Now I know, appreciate the answer.

[jade gust]

I think even with the nerf it got earlier this year, Infinite's AR is also stronger than the ARs in the Bungie games

[zinc mortar]

Hi. I have a problem. So me and my homie are trying to finish a full playthrough of Halo wars 2 including all add-ons. Th problem is that in the awakening nightmare add on there's two missions that we physically can't finish. The game just disconnects us and thats it. No matter what we do. At first we thought that's because I have Series X and my homie is on Xbox one s. But later on he switched to a gaming pc which helped only for a couple minutes. Needless to say that is still keeps on disconnecting us. Does anyone had this issue before? How to solve it?

[verbal nymph]

Needler is really good in 3 and 4

don't know then. might have to watch a mint blitz vid cause I know he did that stuff.

[obsidian wyvern]

he uses mods for a lot of his stunts, I can't remember if that was one of them

[pliant hatch]

ooh

[fast latch]

Anyone else quitting the franchise cause of the gen ai stuff

[verbal nymph]

You don't have to quit, you can just not play the new games and stick to the old ones

[fast latch]

Can’t even do that cause they’re adding gen ai stufff to the MCC and Infinite now too. So time to pack it up altogether I guess

[verbal nymph]

I hate how Microsoft has invested so much into AI that they're forcing it into everything they make

[verbal nymph]

What? They haven't updated MCC in forever

[fast latch]

That’s the latest report that came out. They’re testing gen ai stufff using mcc now. So it won’t be a gameplay update but more like background updates for maps to see if gen ai works

[verbal nymph]

I'm pissed off now

[vagrant kettle]

Can you show us the report?

[fast latch]

Yea I’m really annoyed too. I can’t believe they’d do this

[verbal nymph]

I thought for sure they wouldn't ruin something they're already finished making

[fast latch]

Yea seems like it’s a Microsoft thing more than anything but it’s still just genuinely awful. I’ve uninstalled all my halo games from steam now cause of it

[verbal nymph]

I don't wanna give up on one of my favorite game series

[indigo lotus]

Is there proof that mcc is using gen ai? Or just words that means nothing?

[fast latch]

I don’t want to either. It’s my favorite game franchise so this really disappointed me

[verbal nymph]

I'll never get rid of MCC

[cedar turret]

Yeah, let's not do this again. There isn't any confirmation of this nonsense. Spread your rumors elsewhere

[verbal nymph]

But I don't think I'll be buying Campaign Evolved

[forest fossil]

true

[fast latch]

Hopefully soon. Nobody gonna even be able to play Halo 7 cause no one’s gonna own any ram for hardware 😂

[forest fossil]

fans are ALWAYS complaining about the newest halo games

[vagrant kettle]

This guy is not telling the truth, they’re not adding ai to mcc and infinite

[verbal nymph]

That's good

[cedar turret]

Move on.

Baseless rumors have no place here

[indigo lotus]

Don't fall for the kind of bait.

[verbal nymph]

Sorry, I have a habit of believing people

Might be valid to compare to Halo 5 though since Halo 5 is more movementy

So big update on this, here is the whole story:

For months now, I started to randomly get a very odd glitch when I played Halo that made my game seem like it was in turbo mode. It was so weird and we couldn't pinpoint why it was happening.

Then about 10 days ago my Xbox

Mad place to vent

Would anyone be interested in helping me finish some Coop achievements in Halo Infinite?

[waxen rose]

Ts not a vent it’s a confession
If she don’t like halo she gotta go
That’s a fact

[pure sable]

Valid, I don't think my ex girlfriend ever played Halo

tbf, I've only got back into video games since I finished uni and got a job at a video game store lmao

[waxen rose]

If my bf ever told me “I don’t like halo” he would be out the door before he could finish his sentence 🗣️

well according to naded, not having a friend's list improves gameplay so you might be on to something.

[waxen rose]

Bro might be Einstein

[gentle bronze]

If there are no more passes will we not earn any more Spartan points?

Season passes give out extange points liberally so will we not earn as much anymore?

[pliant hatch]

you get them from challenges and playing a game.

[gentle bronze]

We get allot of points from the bp, will we not earn as much anymore?

[pliant hatch]

if you play more you'll get those amounts, but it won't be as easy as getting them from a bp.

[vestal nimbus]

What Halo enemy do you think is the scariest

[gentle bronze]

Flood

[gentle bronze]

Rocket flood

[vestal nimbus]

For me it would probably be elites, flood, brutes, and hunters

[pliant hatch]

juggernaut flood maybe

[vestal nimbus]

Proceeds to think about the Library

[brave oyster]

I hate those guys

[hushed wren]

Pure form flood

Or Jackals

[brave oyster]

The flood in general😓

[brave oyster]

Which jackals

[hushed wren]

Shield

Especially in Reach

[brave oyster]

Ahh 😑

[vestal nimbus]

Halo 2

[brave oyster]

The skirmishers pmo so much, like i shouldnt have to put a whole clip into their bodies but they die so easy with a headshot

[brave oyster]

R.I.P 🫡

[hushed wren]

Exactly omg😭

[vestal nimbus]

Also seeing a hunter in real life would be one of the most terrifying things ever

[brave oyster]

And theyre so annoying when not at point blank to kill

[brave oyster]

Have you seen the size comparison videos,

[vestal nimbus]

Imagine seeing a 12ft tally alien worm amalgamation in armor standing over you

[pliant hatch]

they'd be a cool pet

[vestal nimbus]

Or a brute running towards when they go sicko mode

[hushed wren]

The plasma pistol is surprisingly op in the game

[vestal nimbus]

I,m planning to do all halo games on legendary in the future and I'm scared for what halo 2 is going to do to me

[brave oyster]

Some one in the comment section of the size comparison videos said that Autobot Jazz from transformers 2007 was supposedly 14 feet. So hunters are about the height of a frickin transformer and masterchief can bounce over them easily

[hushed wren]

I gave up on it when I reached CE. I just wanted to casually play Halo again lol

[brave oyster]

Halo 2 brutes

[jade gust]

Learn the skips

[brave oyster]

I havent noticed any difference tbh

[brave oyster]

Havent you heard what its like

[vestal nimbus]

It,s insane how tall the covenant/banished actually are, like a grunt is frickin 5ft tall. That's the height a lot of people are at

[brave oyster]

As a man whose only played MCC and Halo wars, i wouldnt know what halo 5 or infinite is like

[vestal nimbus]

I,v just heard jackal sniper snipe you in half a nanosecond and the gravemind level is a nightmare

[vestal nimbus]

I,m pretty sure there the same height in 5 and infinite

[brave oyster]

✅, i tried playing once and couldnt get past the part where you get grenades in the first level

[brave oyster]

Ahh

[jade gust]

Halo 5 brings in some new abilities you have access to at all times, all of which are based around the thruster pack, including the ability to perform a ground pound. Halo Infinite dialled it back and goes for a middle ground of Halo 5 and Halo 3's gameplay by giving us the ability to sprint (Albeit with a slower top speed), clamber and slide, but also giving us a reworked equipment system from Halo 3, where you can hold multiple charges for some pieces of equipment, like the grapple and drop shield

[vestal nimbus]

I,m starting with ce and I get shredded once you get the assault rifle

[brave oyster]

Ive seen a bit of the gameplay for them so yeah. Im just a basic person with halo😂

[brave oyster]

I miss my 60 rounds

[jade gust]

The SMG took the role of being a 60 round automatic within the sandbox

[vestal nimbus]

Also I wouldn't recommend 5 because the campaign is not good but infinite is a lot better than it is at launch, the open world campaign ain't to bad and the gameplay is really good and the multiplayer is enjoyable

[brave oyster]

Yeah but it just doesnt feel the same yk

[jade gust]

Eh, I got used to it. Honestly prefer the AR having a 32 round mag anyway

[brave oyster]

Oh nice, whats halo wars 2 like?,

(If you played it, idk)

[brave oyster]

Playing halo 3 on heroic, 32 rounds doesnt cut it when you got ten brutes in front of you

[jade gust]

Well that's where you're going wrong, you're bringing the wrong gun to that fight

(Also it's Halo 3, most non-power weapons aren't great)

[brave oyster]

But they take the damn turrets away from me 🥀

[brave oyster]

Agreed, need the big guns. Shot guns also become useless on heroic

[jade gust]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-2-battle-rifle-reload-rifle-master-chief-gif-13750243016545992589

BR is basically the best gun in Halo 3, use it

[brave oyster]

💯

Always do when a turrets not around

[jade gust]

Like, for most situations in Halo 3, you want a BR. It is not worth having any of the other non-power weapons outside of a Plasma weapon to strip shields

[brave oyster]

Agreed. Although when flood exists

[vestal nimbus]

It,s generally the same as 1 but a lot better. They're is a lot more units, leaders, maps, and more, the campaign I like and it's a really good game. If you liked the first one then I think you'd really like the 2nd one. It,s alot better than the first one in my opinion. Also you get introduced to a new faction called the banished which are people who turned against the covenant after Atriox (The Banished leader) found out he and other brutes find out their being used similar to the elites and want to destroy covenant,humans etc.

[brave oyster]

Yeah ive seen the infinite release trailer so i know about banished

Covenant leftovers😂

[vestal nimbus]

Halo wars 2 kinda gives a bit more context to the banished

[brave oyster]

Ohh ok

[jade gust]

Still want the BR, aim for the Infection Form in the torso of the Combat Forms. Have something for CQC like the Shotgun or Mauler as a backup

Or the Needler as well, since Supercombine is great against Flood

[vestal nimbus]

It,s that meme where it says there the same picture. Them being red is the only difference

[brave oyster]

Wait what

[marsh blade]

i just encountered hackers in h3 for the first time

good show

[vestal nimbus]

How do we have hackers in halo 3 of all games

[marsh blade]

there were 3

fly hackers

I almost killed one of them tho

[brave oyster]

Where the hell did my message about blowing the crap out of the flood go

[vestal nimbus]

I saw it pop up for like half a second

[brave oyster]

Ah ok

Oh look im being warned 😂

[calm fiber]

For server moderation concerns, please send a direct message to @bleak yoke.

[brave oyster]

Not concerned 🥱

[haughty prism]

Does my pfp look amazing

[crude marsh]

Yeah

[hushed wren]

Nah

Jk

[quasi thunder]

I miss the old days too man

[coral yoke]

oh it can't be that overpowered now.

[jade gust]

It's more that most of the other non-power weapons in Halo 3 are just not worth using over the BR

Like you could make an argument for the Carbine, but the BR is just more consistent in Halo 3

[haughty prism]

Awesome sauce

[viscid nest]

is infinite gettin shut down? 🙁

[pliant hatch]

no

[hushed wren]

No?

[urban basalt]

God i hope not ngl thats the best online

[grand cedar]

No it's not.

[frail mesa]

hello

i just finished up shoveling a good 6-7 inches worth of snow

[lavish marsh]

Where's the art channel

I'm quite dumb not gonna lie, can't find it anywhere

[misty marsh]

#1076327824924872755 as long as its halo related

[lavish marsh]

Its halo related, thanks!

[fallow sky]

how do i send an attachment

do i have to talk a lot or something

[steady jolt]

If you're sharing your Halo content in #1076327824924872755 you should be able to. In regular channels, you need to be here for a bit and be active to earn the permissions

[fallow sky]

just a random halo clip from a while ago

[coral yoke]

feel free to put it in #1237511837201731766

[fallow sky]

thank you

did not notice that thread

[full shore]

Is red vs blue canon?

[hasty zinc]

halo related and also your own content*

[obsidian wyvern]

no

[full shore]

Can you ask the admin to make it canon?

[obsidian wyvern]

you can ask

I think infinite has a reference or two to the show though

[full shore]

So its canon

[hasty zinc]

halo 3 had RvB too

[dry surge]

my friend is tired of halo CE

how does one not appreciate CE smh

[obsidian wyvern]

your friend probably wants to play a good halo game

[coral yoke]

the level design and also the magnum's dominance probably.

[obsidian wyvern]

games jank

[full shore]

Make a time machine, go to the 2000s and make him play fps for consoles until halo ce comes

[dry surge]

I feel like hitting him until he forgets every video game would be easier

[ivory spade]

still more fun than infinite's campaign. somehow backtracking thru levels is still more fun than huge open spaces with nothing in them XD

[tight remnant]

I have way more fun playing Infinite campaign than CE personally

[full shore]

I like infinite but I'm just an explorer person, that halo just tells you where to go and that's it

[misty marsh]

CE is alr the missions just drag way too much

[waxen rose]

Infinite had more moments that made me giggle than ce but idk infinite campaign isn't that replayable imo (neither is ce after the 2nd time )

[obsidian wyvern]

CE is too much of the same thing, and the physics piss me off

infinite has a bad open world and a pretty nothing story

[ivory spade]

the invincible vehicles in CE is kinda fun tho 🙂

[obsidian wyvern]

pretty cringe too

[waxen rose]

Idk I cried when chief said “we fail “ in infinite probably bc I was super depressed but never listen to me im a corn ball

[obsidian wyvern]

is that the human moment or something

[misty marsh]

Can't compete against Infinites wasp

[obsidian wyvern]

I had no problem with that scene ngl

[waxen rose]

Yeah where he talks to a shaken up fernando

[obsidian wyvern]

it's like, the pilot kissing the floor when he lands

[waxen rose]

the pilot with one bullet left in his gun wow I like the implications but no one else got it

[misty marsh]

I loved that scene actually

[ivory spade]

yeah the wasp is a lot of fun, but also u cant blast a warthog into strange unintended places

[obsidian wyvern]

or when one of those Spartans asked smthn like "what did irstus mean" (seriously) and the other Spartan goes "that I'm your friend"

???

[waxen rose]

That makes no sense out of context 😭

[obsidian wyvern]

it made no sense with context

let me find a video on it

[waxen rose]

I was hyped up before I played infinite because I lowk thought id be saving Spartans n stuff
Stupid yt videos making the game seem cool

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah the lack of Spartans you can fight alongside SUCKS

[ivory spade]

they made the marines have godlike aim at least, but yeah it ain't the same

[waxen rose]

Like I know for certain there was more than 5 Spartans on the INFINITY
The biggest unsc ship😭

[obsidian wyvern]

and chief being a one man army is lame, esp after seeing all the other Spartans struggling in the book

[misty marsh]

I was being sarcastic, Infinites wasp makes me want to break my monitor

[waxen rose]

“Lets explain it away in audio logs” as if anyone listens to those and cares

[ivory spade]

oh LOL. it is a terror to fight against in multiplayer at least

[waxen rose]

I lowk used the wasp to snipe all the outlaw enemies from the air…

[misty marsh]

It's fun until ur just trying to get somewhere and then get ganged up on by a pair of banshees

[signal wedge]

It just proves he’s the best

[misty marsh]

About as durable as soggy tissue

[signal wedge]

This is why Master Chief is considered The Spartan

[obsidian wyvern]

https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxvEZfLaRc5lTLCeXnqCbvmmac17JLvvYr?si=FhRYzQ1z-ZU0KPdH

[waxen rose]

Banishes moving without being touched lowk pmo but I ain't gonna yap

[ivory spade]

yeah that was my main gripe about it too. you cant really use it as a form of travel without getting shot by banshees nonstop

[naive turret]

The Falcon would’ve been nice for Campaign. And I mean the Falcon not the big wasp that Infinite did end up getting.

[waxen rose]

IM SORRY BUT HIS HAIR I cant take ts seriously😭🙏

[obsidian wyvern]

OH YEAH HE RANDOMLY HOWLS

they made him go all in on the lone wolf thing

[signal wedge]

Awoooo

[waxen rose]

Voice actors tell stories around the campfire about bro

[waxen rose]

I think he hit his head too hard or they heard the “alpha male” thing was cool so they just went all in and it was the WRONG call

[ivory spade]

i dont think that hair is milspec XD

[obsidian wyvern]

i think it's to do with his role tbf

those Spartans are supposed to go on long missions with no support or anything iirc

[naive turret]

Guy needed some support evidently.

[waxen rose]

I dont remember anything about him and im glad for it
My mind prob purposefully blocked it out

[limpid steeple]

Just completed the last Battle Pass, feels bitter sweet man. Played infinite since day 1.

Seen the good times and the bad, it just feels weird knowing this is kind of the end.

[waxen rose]

-gone for 2 years no social contact

-howls like a dog at the first chance
Lock this guy up

[signal wedge]

He thinks he was in twilight

[waxen rose]

Bring back judging spartans

[signal wedge]

Also aren’t lone wolfs supposed to be alone

Bring back non cheesy Spartans
