hcs-chat

[halcyon hatch]

Yes. It is ran as a normal giveaway but just in this channel

[orchid shuttle]

Oh that’s cool i will try that today while watching the hcs. Thank you for the information!:)

[torpid beacon]

@halcyon hatch thanks you very much

[tame sandal]

Not just this one

It also happened on #halo-gear

[quiet prairie]

Quadrant :/

[tame sandal]

Keep a sharp eye

[quiet prairie]

Litteraly in tear...

[orchid shuttle]

Thank you! Might be random channels too?

[tame sandal]

Might

[coral helm]

I have been in this channel since 8:00. Waiting for them drops! Haha

[tame sandal]

I don't do the giveaways

[orchid shuttle]

Well I’ll just stick with this channel and the gear one then since I’m busy watching the hcs haha.

[molten ether]

Gimme all the tings

[quiet prairie]

Tchik ❤️

[velvet brook]

Check in on random channels throughout the day! There was a stealth giveaway in HCS gear giving away 10 nameplates and only 15 entered!!

[quiet prairie]

nice deco just in time to stop an attack from Quadrant

[tame sandal]

I'm ready for the stream!

Just needed to get some taquitos

[sharp elbow]

Do they announce on the stream where the drop is happening?

[orchid shuttle]

That looks amazing

[zenith birch]

Dude now I’m hungry

[arctic quiver]

What drop, the Twitch drop?

[torpid beacon]

No the giveaway

[arctic quiver]

Details of that are in #969309929401905182

Giveaways for Discord are purely done in-server

There's the main one here - #giveaways

Any flash giveaways are not announced in advance

[sharp elbow]

Ah okay

[torpid beacon]

O OK do you know if there is any today

[sharp elbow]

Thanks for the information

There was one earlier apparently in a different channel

[arctic quiver]

There will be more giveaways over the weekend and later after the event has ended

[torpid beacon]

OK thanks ❤️

[craggy burrow]

Oh hey, I didnt actually miss much of it this time then. Sweet.

Looks like having no life has a benefit here, hehe

[torpid beacon]

Look in the other chat there is a giveaway

[old narwhal]

Halo infinite

[rocky hawk]

thank you!

[zenith birch]

You’re a saint

[torpid beacon]

No problem im happy to help

[carmine trail]

Attempt #1: Failure

[sweet hare]

same

[novel meteor]

I neeeed to get my hands on one 😫

[brisk bramble]

Never realized how badly I wanted a Unicorn until now

[rocky hawk]

we were close though, only 47 entered

[hidden acorn]

Plenty more chances today I’m sure, we’ll nab one

[novel meteor]

@brisk bramble same 🤣

[sweet hare]

we'll get it next time i'm sure

[novel meteor]

We still have a chance yall. The same person can't rewin another one can they?

[brisk bramble]

On the bright side, the more winners, the less competition

[grave spire]

Nope can only win once

[somber ridge]

Please don't tease admin about light mode. they will revoke your winning. 😂

[carmine trail]

I'm not leaving my computer until I get one today so with enough attempts, you've got good odds.

[coral helm]

Admins will probably tell them they can’t win twice and reroll

[novel meteor]

Awesome

[grave spire]

If you do win make sure to take your reactions off all the posts though!

[novel meteor]

For sure

[somber ridge]

yeah the bots are not smart, they will pick someone already won. and it forces the admin/dev to have to reroll when they hand out the prizes. which is a pain. so please remove your reactions from all of the giveaway posts after you have won.

[torpid beacon]

I will if I do thanks for saying

[novel meteor]

Same, I'm hoping we win early with the flash giveaways, that'd be pretty cool. 😲

[worn nest]

Damn missed it

So none at the moment any flash ones right

[carmine trail]

The bots job is just to RNG everyone who's entered, it doesn't actually know what the giveaway is for or who has won.

[novel meteor]

Not that I see

[tame sandal]

The #471749501171007498 part of me wants me to fly out to Kansas City and check those PCs.

But HCS probably have more inside info from Halo Support

[craggy burrow]

So it DID crash again

[tame sandal]

@thorny crescent Are our minds the same? :P

[tame sandal]

Yeah, most likely

[somber ridge]

i have no interest of getting another HCS kit, unless they can confirm they will allow us to use the pieces individually down the road... 😦

[tame sandal]

At ñeast now they're being quicker to resume

[thorny crescent]

hahaha yeah kinda :p they should hire us for the next one

[craggy burrow]

Last two rounds must have made them know the problem and the fix.

Actually on that, are they swapping the armor kits we have now out any time soon?

[tame sandal]

Hold up

Did I just see a red reticle?!

I did!

KingJay at least is on an Xbox

[carmine trail]

Maybe they moved to xbox, no way they fixed reticle on pc

[novel meteor]

[tame sandal]

It's not broken on PC, it's disabled.

Different things

[carmine trail]

that's what i meant ^

[craggy burrow]

I saw it too.
So wait does RR not show up on PC then?

[thorny crescent]

it does not

[somber ridge]

first time i saw this red reticle thing lol

[carmine trail]

343 disabled red reticle on PC to stop easy scripts from being written like "When Red Shoot" basically. At least that's what i've always heard. Stops basic cheats.

[thorny crescent]

yeah

[somber ridge]

oic

[craggy burrow]

Im literally not even surprised about that.

[worn nest]

So the giveaways are starting well the flash ones

Flash giveaways right here or in random channels

[sweet hare]

random

[novel meteor]

Random channels

[gaunt crown]

Ahhh

[somber ridge]

random channels?

[craggy burrow]

Within reason, I doubt they'll be in LFG

[somber ridge]

random time, this channel, right?

[gaunt crown]

What do you have to do? Lol

[old narwhal]

We got this

[carmine trail]

More randomness and uncertainty, more chaos

[brisk bramble]

Espanol channel looking real promising

[gaunt crown]

Ah

[craggy burrow]

As it should be honestly

[novel meteor]

Just gotta be Lucky with it

[sweet hare]

i really hope i get lucky this time, i know we can earn it later but i don't like waiting lmao

[carmine trail]

^

[novel meteor]

@somber ridge random channels, random times

[thorny crescent]

flash giveaways are random ones with very short timers. long term giveaways will be in #giveaways

[hidden acorn]

Is it confirmed it will be earnable? Seems like it’s a Discord giveaway exclusive

[arctic quiver]

It's Discord exclusive

[craggy burrow]

No word, no clue

[gaunt crown]

🥴

[hidden acorn]

That’s what I thought

[carmine trail]

I always find it funny when people ask for them to make it easier. I understand wanting cool rewards but the whole point is for it to be uncommon. Wouldn't be cool if everyone had it.

[gaunt crown]

Lol yeah.

[sweet hare]

foreal, i like rare items

[gaunt crown]

Time exclusive, or promotional in-game items are always cool. Sucks when you miss out, but I still respect them.

[upbeat acorn]

my account is linked to waypoint but i still don’t have the coating.. sad

[thorny crescent]

were you linked before claiming?

[craggy burrow]

We're lucky to have exclusives. They removed most of the ones from the game.

[sweet hare]

did you claim the drop in your inventory?

[brisk bramble]

Wonder if we could ever see a Unicorn for collecting all Unicorns

[winged cradle]

no lol

[gaunt crown]

Lol

[upbeat acorn]

yes

[zenith birch]

Omega Unicorn

Question, will we be tagged if we win? Or dm'd?

[orchid shuttle]

There’s a dark unicorn too and i wonder how to get it

[zenith birch]

Dude hear me out. Pizza Unicorn

[somber ridge]

Then there ya go.

[carmine trail]

codes? giveaways? What are you talking about? It's 2007 come play Halo 3

[gaunt crown]

I wish.

[velvet brook]

trash compactor rn

[keen goblet]

Well Played Quadrant!

[sweet hare]

oh god please no, halo 3 was trash in terms of weapon variety

(arguably 5 was worse with the pistol but still)

[craggy burrow]

Least the H5 pistol was USABLE

[carmine trail]

I miss Halo 5's Magnum :(

[craggy burrow]

The sidekicks growing on me a bit.

[gaunt crown]

Sure, didn’t have the best weapon balancing but the endless classic customs, first introduction to forge, the marketing, the campaign memories, all of it. Big experience.

[sweet hare]

i was talking purely weapon sandbox, i hate halo 3's

[craggy burrow]

It does rely far too much on the BR.

[sweet hare]

i will stand by that even if the entire halo community comes at me, i utterly despise it.

[lusty inlet]

I also hate halo 3's sandbox

but really weird that you dislike halo 5's, it's arguably the best one 🤨

[tame sandal]

Does anyone get vibes of Billie Ellish's No Time to Die with the song that plays in the AMD commercial?

[gaunt crown]

Infinite has the best weapon sandbox.

[lusty inlet]

no, just, no

[gaunt crown]

Yes.

[lusty inlet]

infinite's sandbox is somehow worse then halo 3's

[gaunt crown]

You're insane lmao.

[somber ridge]

seems like I lucked out by stopped playing games after H3, and started again with Infinite lol

[carmine trail]

Infinite has good pickups/equipment, definitely a good update from Halo 3's, but the weapon variation is lacking

[gaunt crown]

In what way is it worse than H3's?

[sweet hare]

i don't dislike 5's, was just comparing the magnum in 5 being the most used weapon to the br in halo 3

[lusty inlet]

H5 has an amazing weapon sandbox I'd highly recommend it

[amber grotto]

Bruh I need a credit card to redeem the codes in Twitch chat

For Gamepass

[gaunt crown]

I don't mean weapon variation, I mean weapon balancing.

[amber grotto]

I've never had Gamepass and I want it

[carmine trail]

Halo 5 is by far the most balanced multiplayer, it's just sweaty and as far from classic Halo as possible

[lusty inlet]

I have an entire .txt doc that explains all of this but I can't post it here

[somber ridge]

I don't think i can play any halo MP now without the grapple shot lol

[gaunt crown]

😩

[formal thicket]

I bought a year long gamepass ult. and I love it

[lusty inlet]

You do realize classic Halo is all about balanced competitive sweaty mp....right?

Halo 5 is Halo.

[carmine trail]

In terms of movement, Halo 5 is in its own league. I never said Halo 5 isn't Halo. Halo 5 is my favorite Halo multiplayer, I'm just saying it's nothing like the original trilogy's gameplay.

[amber grotto]

Yeah but I don't have a credit card yet

[sweet hare]

exactly this, the boosts, ram and ground pound are so far from halo that if you showed someone who doesn't play 5 vs the older games, they would agree

[gaunt crown]

Halo 2 will always be peak Halo for me, primarily due to nostalgia, but Halo Infinite is great (speaking in terms of the sandbox/balancing, of course it's lacking in content and other issues). Since this is the HCS channel, Halo 4 and Halo 5 were huge drop offs for me. Halo 5 not as bad, but it just did not have the same competitive edge to it. It was the movement for me.

[lusty inlet]

Not really, Halo 5's movement is very Halo-like. In fact playing Halo 5 makes me better at previous Halo's.

It is pretty similar to Halo 2 and 3's mp in some ways, but not others. The original trilogy mp isn't even a mp, it's Halo 1, 2, and 3, each have massive differences.

[lusty inlet]

I did this and they didn't agree with that, huh

[formal thicket]

ohhhh gotcha

[carmine trail]

You can't even compare Halo 5's movement with sprint, groundpound, thrusting, spartan charging, to games that only had walking lol

[lusty inlet]

You might've just dropped off in competitive Halo MP in general then, Halo 5 is easily the most competitive MP out of the series.

[sweet hare]

differing opinions, i showed a freind mine and he agreed it was out of place. He compared halo 4 to cod lmao

[carmine trail]

with faster movement speed

[lusty inlet]

You can though, huh
And they didn't only have walking?

[lusty inlet]

Comparing H4 to cod is like saying Battlefield, Titanfall, StarWars, and many other shooters are COD clones when COD didn't even start any of the trends it has lmao

COD copied Medal of Honor btw

[gaunt crown]

Nope. I've played Halo pretty exclusively since 2004. Played Halo 5 HARD. Champion blah blah blah, competed in tons of online tournaments...did not have the same competitive MP/tournament feel that the older titles had. This is my opinion though. I know a lot of people love H5.

[sweet hare]

i mean i can see where she's coming from, loadouts, you get rewarded for kills to summon care packages (loadout stuff), etc.

[boreal star]

[carmine trail]

The only thing that makes Halo 4 similar to CoD is loadouts and ordnance drops, although ordnances are only in certain modes and they're vastly different from kill streaks. But that's about it. There's not much. Halo 4 is its own game.

[lusty inlet]

I've also played Halo pretty exclusively since 2002, I guess it's just your opinion cause it absolutely had the same feel and actually a much stronger feel for lots of players.

[gaunt crown]

Well, we can agree to disagree.

[lusty inlet]

Ordnance drops are rewarded to you for doing everything in H4, whether it's objective stuff, assist, etc.

not just kills only

[carmine trail]

Halo 5 has much faster gameplay with way more unique and complex movement, I just don't understand how you can even compare it to Halo 2 or 3's movement but to each their own.

[gaunt crown]

Agreed.

[tame sandal]

Found him!

[sweet hare]

i'd compare that to cod still personally, mw3 had a skill tree where you got care packages for just getting score even if you died. I mean we don't have to agree on this but i can see where my freind is coming from

[lusty inlet]

H5 isn't really that much faster, Infinite and Halo 5 actually have identical base movement speed.

For me, Halo 5 is like an advanced Halo 2, it's fast, smooth, and things are always on point. Someone's never been in a competitive match if you really think matches are "slow", they aren't.

[novel meteor]

@tame sandal awwwww mannnn

[craggy bay]

beat me to it

[lusty inlet]

H3 is really the only Halo game where I can say the game feels incredibly slow, even at high FOV Halo 3 feels slower compared to literally any other Halo shooter out there. No idea what it is. The movement just feels, off?

[novel meteor]

@craggy bay 🤣🤣

[carmine trail]

If Halo 5 was just an advanced Halo 2 then the game would've been more successful, I mean the campaign was a big turn off but the multiplayer is very clearly its own thing.

[lusty inlet]

The game was more successful, it was hugely successful with a massive player base that made the game keep going for 6+ years (you can still find games in it pretty easily today). What are you on about?

[carmine trail]

👁️ 👄 👁️

[sweet hare]

the game wasn't that sucessful ngl, every old halo becomes "a classic" after the new game comes out and disappoints people

[carmine trail]

"massive player base" is an overstatement

[lusty inlet]

Not really.

[carmine trail]

I grinded the game for 6 years, I would know.

[sweet hare]

it's happened with halo 4, halo 5 and infinite. it's the cycle we all know at this point

[lusty inlet]

Not really, it's player base at the time was pretty big.

[lusty inlet]

So have I.

[gaunt crown]

Man...I will 100% disagree. Halo 2 was much more successful. I hear Halo 2 this and Halo 2 that from people inside and outside of the community far more often than I hear about Halo 5. Only time I hear about Halo 5 is from the niche fan base within the community. Halo 2 is a cultural iconic game.

[carmine trail]

Halo 5 started off big but quickly dropped and never recovered.

It had a good enough population through the years, but it was never a "massive player base" after launch

[lusty inlet]

Not sure where you're hearing that from, I hear less about Halo 2 then I hear about Halo 4. I really don't get where you think it's this cultural icon lol

Halo 5's fan base is 100% not niche though, it's a pretty large chunk of it.

[sweet hare]

exactly people came back to it after infinite disappointed some people because 5 had more content in the game sooner.

[robust sundial]

In my opinion I think infinite has the best gameplay completely. It’s a mix between halo five and halo three. The way I look at it is that it is the sequel that halo three deserved but never got until now. It still has the fundamental of the advanced mechanics as well as the classic feel.

[lusty inlet]

Niche fanbase is something like the classic halo community, it's very niche.

[orchid shuttle]

I’m waiting for season 2 of infinite.. rn grinding 152 for the coating though haha

[carmine trail]

I love everything about Infinite's movement except for how much they've changed slide from Halo 5, that's my only problem. Maybe it's just the game as a whole that feels clunky and I like the addition of slide momentum, but sliding itself feels off.

[sweet hare]

good luck, without gold boosts you will be grinding for a long time

[robust sundial]

Infinite is going to be much better later on, yes it’s disappointing that we do have to wait and watch as it gets fixed but it will be well worth the wait. Especially what I’ve seen in Forge (not going to talk about it.) But it is definitely something that I know everyone is going to love!

[sweet hare]

i have hope for infinite to be good, just needs time

[orchid shuttle]

Im grinding with legendary boosts and did 20% in 2 weeks

[robust sundial]

It took me a total of four months of grinding to get there with all of my legendary boosts

[lusty inlet]

HI's movement in general feels off, it's like the game was designed with faster movement then somewhere really late in dev they changed it from 20% to 10% and I'll never figure out why they did that.

Maybe for server related issues idk

[hearty estuary]

What level you at

[carmine trail]

Sucks for a community who has no patience.

[gaunt crown]

Halo CE - Halo 3 are huge cultural icons. Go ask most people on the street if they have played Halo CE - Halo 3 or Halo 5. Let me know the results.

Even though Halo 5 had far greater sells, it dropped off SO much more quickly down to the die hard fans. Halo 2 sold record breaking numbers back when gaming was no where near as big of a pass time as it is now and people still play it till this day, nearly 20 years later.

[sweet hare]

i don't want to sound mean but 20% for the first 132 levels is NOTHING. the final xp goal is 50,000,000

[hearty estuary]

It took me five years to get 152 😎

[orchid shuttle]

20% 146

[robust sundial]

RIP

Hey at least you are there

[carmine trail]

When you're sitting at 150 with 24 million and you still have 26 million left to go with only 2 levels lol

[sweet hare]

151 isn't even halfway there lmao

[hearty estuary]

Was able to get 152 before launch
I thought you couldn't get it after launch?

[sweet hare]

20% is nothing, not trying to be mean but it's a GRIND.

[carmine trail]

You can get it after launch.

[sweet hare]

you can still get it

[hearty estuary]

That's interesting

[orchid shuttle]

I can do it in about 12 weeks i think since im free for a long time haha

[sweet hare]

what's your daily goal?

[sharp elbow]

The grind for max rank in halo 5 is stupid

[carmine trail]

Goodluck my dude, it's very grindy. Happy to be done with that.

[orchid shuttle]

I want to get 1-2% a day

[sweet hare]

mine was 1 million xp a day or 800k

[robust sundial]

My GT is FOTUS if anyone wants to be friends. And yes you can still get it, it is an earn-able thing. Tom French Confirmed it a while back that you could still get it.

[sharp elbow]

I tried last summer but it was depressing seeing the bar hardly move after warzone matches

[lusty inlet]

I feel like you might be in your own bubble at this point, cause they are 100% not as big of a cultural icon as you think they are. The only one out of the bunch I even hear about mostly is H3, barely anything about H2 and even less to deal with H1.

"Let me know the results."
I'm sure if you asked any Halo fan, they've played all of them. Everyone I know that's played H2 has also played..Halo 5. Not sure what that's supposed to prove but there's you're results.

"it dropped off SO much more quickly down to the die hard fans."
Proof? Last I checked H5 is still huge to this day, no idea what that's supposed to mean. Maybe it did to you, but not to me, friends, or many various dudes in this discord rn.

[orchid shuttle]

Sometimes 3% but depends on the teams

[robust sundial]

Mythic 🙂 that’s the best way.

[carmine trail]

??????

[hearty estuary]

Sounds like pain
It's nice that I can share in that pain with all the other morons who grinded for 152 👊 😎

[brisk bramble]

I'm going for it but I'm only SR20 since I just recently picked up Halo 5 on Gamepass

[sharp elbow]

Thats all I played with double xp boosts

[lusty inlet]

150 is half way, 151 is like 75%

[orchid shuttle]

Myth + legendary 24-28k exp each match

[gaunt crown]

and see, every single person I know hates Halo 5 lol.

[sweet hare]

151 is 24k xp, 152 is 26k. it's literally not even halfway

[robust sundial]

I would recommend playing on the off terms of the season stuff with infinite.

[lusty inlet]

You can, I still don't know who spread that rumor that you weren't able to get it after launch cause you absolutely still can.

[sharp elbow]

Im at level 145 I think in Halo 5 at the moment

[hearty estuary]

Oh yeah I absolutely hate Halo 5
That's why I put 1000+ hours into it 💀

[old narwhal]

yeah it is, 150 is 24mil / 50mil

[sweet hare]

it's 2 million into 151 that is halfway done

[gaunt crown]

Still played it because at the time MCC was trash and it was Halo.

[carmine trail]

@sweet hare When did you hit 152? I feel like everyone I match on Infinite got it within the past few months.

[carmine trail]

1 million *

[sweet hare]

within a month last year in june

i'm not even kidding, i played for 18 hours a day

[lusty inlet]

I feel like you're talking nonsense cause yea, 150 is 50%.

"Nighterlev is currently an SR 150 with 29,334,302/35,000,000 XP
They are 48.5% of the way to the next Spartan Rank and 58.7% to Maximum Spartan Rank of 152."

[lusty inlet]

??

[carmine trail]

1-150 is 24 million. 150-151 is 11 million. 151-152 is 15 million. 150-152 is 26million, more than half.

[hearty estuary]

honestly I prefer halo 5 to the other halo games. Although I would argue it's not really a halo game when it comes to gameplay. Infinite is a proper halo.

[sharp elbow]

I gave up on max rank as I prefer the other coatings better

[lusty inlet]

Go to #483682852865572882 type in /xp, it'll tell you how close you are to 152.

[orchid shuttle]

Yeah its do able with legendary boosts but i wouldn’t do it without tbh

[hearty estuary]

I gave up like 3 times 👊 😎

[sweet hare]

gambit AI kills is the best boost btw, 31k a game was such a good feeling

[warm nexus]

Anyone else excited to just see Halo eSports popular again?

[brisk bramble]

I still have no clue how to aim in Halo 5

[orchid shuttle]

Yeah but then you gotta try hard every game

[hearty estuary]

Yeah too bad that even with 100,000+ req points I barely ever got it

[lusty inlet]

You can put a lot of time into something but still hate the game, just some people would rather play it to understand why they hate it vs hating it without playing it.

[carmine trail]

I hit max rank back in June 2019, I've missed having something to grind since then

[sweet hare]

i got like 9 at most lmao, it's stupid rare

[orchid shuttle]

I just bought it tbh…

[sweet hare]

i joined another discord and met some amazing people to help me grind, although most of my grinding was pure solo play at work

[lusty inlet]

Okay but 150 is the half way point just so we're clear on that

[orchid shuttle]

Rather buy than waste double time

[sharp elbow]

I got from level 60 something to 145 in half a year so im burnt out atm on halo 5

[carmine trail]

1 million into 150 is half way :p

[orchid shuttle]

It is but i just look at the %

Im at 10mil exp 2 weeks

[hearty estuary]

Sometimes the game gets waaaay too sweaty. (More sweaty than it needs to be) That's why I believe social quick play is a cancer on the Earth. Like bro you're in social quick play chill! (They will never chill)

[lusty inlet]

yea

[sweet hare]

i wonder when the next drop will be

[lusty inlet]

It's been popular since Halo 5 brought it back, you're late to the party.

[coral helm]

hopefully soon

[carmine trail]

Was just wondering that lol is anyone still paying attention for flash giveaways

[old kettle]

yeah, I am lol

[sweet hare]

foreal it's been almost 2 hours since a drop

[orchid shuttle]

Last giveaway was 1hour and 28 min ago

[lusty inlet]

if you go to #483682852865572882 and type in /xp it'll tell you how close you are lol

[coral helm]

I have been here since 5 hours just waiting for them drops and there has only been one haha

[novel meteor]

@sweet hare same

[warm nexus]

Naw that wasn't popular. It got some attention,but I wouldn't say popular.

[hearty estuary]

Ayo random thought
The most satisfying thing in halo 5 is consistently getting those perfections with the magnum

[lusty inlet]

It was popular, very popular, huh

[novel meteor]

@carmine trail I have lol

[lusty inlet]

I can give you a chart that shows just how popular Halo 5's esports scene was

[sharp elbow]

Halo 5: Guardians
o0Timberwolf0o is currently an SR 145 with 7,826,255/9,000,000 XP
They are 6.1% of the way to the next Spartan Rank and 15.7% to Maximum Spartan Rank of 152.
XP has increased by 7,826,255 since last check

Halo dBot v3.0.3

That is really saddening to see lol

[lusty inlet]

Halo Infinite's was really good in the beginning but Idk how it's going to keep it up ngl

[lusty inlet]

Hey you're close to 16% of the way there 💀

[warm nexus]

It got attention, but no where near as popular as Halo 3 and Infinite

[lusty inlet]

It was definitely more popular then Halo 3's lmao
Infinite's is the most popular but unsure as of rn

[hearty estuary]

Halo 5 competitive just hits different
The advancement movement (and Assassinations if those were enabled idk) can result in a lot of eye candy for the viewers

[carmine trail]

Halo eSports died in 2018 when Halo 5 died, it's only now coming back with Infinite

[lusty inlet]

That's false. Very false.

[sharp elbow]

I loved Halo 3's social games. Infection had its big boom then with all the different modes and maps

[orchid shuttle]

I just hope they will give double xp in halo 5 myth lolZ who knows

[hearty estuary]

Nah

[sweet hare]

they won't lmao

if they didn't during my grind, they sure won't during yours

[hearty estuary]

They stopped doing weekly playlists updates a while ago

[orchid shuttle]

Yh true

They stopped supporting since dec

I heard

[hearty estuary]

Honestly once 343 did their last update on 5 they completely abandoned it and went straight to fixing MCC (like they promised a billion years ago) and working on infinite full time I imagine

Would've been cool if halo 5 got more support but it is what it is. It's obviously the fault of the fans who don't want sprint smh

[somber ridge]

#giveaways going nuts

[sweet hare]

and the bots done, dang no w this time

[novel meteor]

@sweet hare me either

[brisk bramble]

Don't give up, rerolls could happen

[torpid beacon]

Same

[sweet hare]

they will, some peeps don't have gtags linked

[hearty estuary]

[novel meteor]

I legit have such crap luck winning things, I'm hoping my luck turns around today tbh.

[craggy burrow]

Its a numbers game really. Best thing I won was a backpack at the last in-person E3 viewing

[lusty inlet]

I was hoping they'd just enable double XP for every playlist before they stopped updating halo 5's playlist ngl

[hearty estuary]

[somber ridge]

if you didn't win, wait for the random giveaway. it might happen later today. chances are lot better in those

[carmine trail]

can we get some F's in chat for all the people who waited and didn't win

[gaunt crown]

A lot of those people don’t have gamer tags linked lmao.

[warm saddle]

Can I have it? 🫴🏼

[craggy burrow]

No, Im using it for school. Its Sea of Thieves themed.

[warm saddle]

Damn lol

[craggy burrow]

Legit is savin my butt in Chem right now, no lies.

[gaunt crown]

My man!

[lusty inlet]

MCC was being fixed since 2019, not sure what that's supposed to imply. Halo 5's playlist updates ended Dec. 2021, just a few months ago. MCC's stuff kinda ended in the end of 2020 but Saber/343i still does minor updates for it every now and then.

[orchid shuttle]

They should’ve done that yes, even if it was just every weekend..

[lusty inlet]

Halo fans want sprint, that's why it's in Halo 5 and still in Infinite

[hearty estuary]

Halo fans are not real

[orchid shuttle]

Tbh i love the sprint in halo games.

[lusty inlet]

It did get more support lol

I hate it when people spread misinformation on purpose, that or they have such biased views that the actual facts disagree with whatever view they're spreading.

Just had one guy block me because the evidence disagreed with his views lmao

[craggy burrow]

Fake news in gaming is very much a thing.

[sweet hare]

dude seriously let it go

[warm nexus]

Lol

[carmine trail]

or you're just being annoying and arguing with everyone over little things no one actually cares about lol

[lusty inlet]

Misinformation is a threat to society.

[sweet hare]

i don't care my dude. Drop it and move on

[lusty inlet]

I'll still be here 🤷

[somber ridge]

this is HCS, not social commentary channel, lol

[sweet hare]

lmao foreal ^, leave it for gen chat

[lusty inlet]

yea I'm correcting people on HCS stuff, Halo esports etc.

[carmine trail]

Soooooo who's everyone rooting for to win? 😃

[somber ridge]

OG, because I am a sheep

[hearty estuary]

Lol. I mean I'm just going off on what I remember. Sure they still did weekly playlist updates but other than that they didn't do much.

[halcyon hatch]

OG or C9 probably

[tame sandal]

https://gfycat.com/enviousbravedoctorfish

[hearty estuary]

If they're doing bug fixes I'll have to get on @lusty inlet
Been a while

[carmine trail]

shoutout Merty for being a real one, appreciate all the mods here

[warm nexus]

https://c.tenor.com/OLT-u6WmivYAAAAM/halo.gif

[tame sandal]

I'm hungry

[sweet hare]

good mod

[warm nexus]

Me too

[craggy burrow]

Get some cheese sticks Mert. They good.

[royal karma]

The giveaway bot is confusing. It gives two different responses when the giveaway ends

[supple kettle]

In order to be eligible to participate in the giveaway at #giveaways and various other channels, you must have your Xbox gamertag linked to your Discord account. To do that, go to Settings -> Connections, select Xbox, and follow the login process. Make sure "Display on Profile" is ticked on, or else you will not be eligible to participate.

[drifting pine]

yeah its confusing

[somber ridge]

what are you guys confused about? maybe I can be of assistance

[royal karma]

The greroll command, the role reaction, and the two different outputs the bot gives?

[somber ridge]

the bot does three things.

1. announce giveaway. where you respond with 🎉
2. announce winners. where the winners are tagged/pinged
3. edit the original giveaway announcement from step 1 to close the contest, and update the post with the number of entries and the winners

when the admin hand out the prizes, any winner who is not eligible is rerolled

[carmine trail]

they also edit it to say "Giveaway Ended"

[somber ridge]

as mentioned before, lots of winners are not eligible because they didn't link their xbox profile to discord

[orchid shuttle]

Seems like to be less giveaways than yesterday tho

[carmine trail]

Day has barely even started tbh

[sweet hare]

it's like 2 pm though lmao

[carmine trail]

give it some time

[somber ridge]

it's Saturday, so probably not as many 343 ppl doing this as Friday

[orchid shuttle]

True but lookinf at the history i mean haha

[sweet hare]

it's been two full hours since the last give away, just hoping another is soon

[somber ridge]

samulet is on-ish lol

hope they have time to do ad hoc giveaways

[carmine trail]

Let's remember to respect the mods/343 employees doing these giveaways for us because it's on their own time and they owe us nothing :)

[drifting pine]

when does optic play next?

[azure swallow]

does anyone know where it was said that the HCS armor kits are going to be customizable eventually? I couldn't find the source

[craggy burrow]

Speaking of, are any of the giveaways in the channel actually still active or did they run dry?
Bar the 6k+ entrant one

[drifting pine]

sorry the halo community has a hard time with respect lol especially on the subreddit

[carmine trail]

The last 3 are still active, end in 3 hours.

[acoustic swallow]

I asked Tashi about it a few hours ago and he confirmed the kits will be unlocked in the future

[craggy burrow]

Cool

[drifting pine]

they did a nother one

[azure swallow]

awesome thanks

[somber ridge]

if you do a search, they have post it once in #483759756566069258 and in #halo-gear

new giveaway entries are being posted in #giveaways

[craggy burrow]

Im keeping my eye on those but I think they';re done.

[carmine trail]

So now there's 6 in total active right now.

8 :p

[drifting pine]

make it 420 😎

[somber ridge]

you can set notification for #giveaways to "ALL" if you want to be informed of new giveaway offers

[torpid beacon]

@hidden acorn gg

[drifting pine]

they look at your discord

[wanton ledge]

if you have your xbox acct connected then it should link

[drifting pine]

and add it to your xbox account I think if its connected

[tame sandal]

If your Xbox gamertag is linked to your Discord, you just wait

No.

A pilgramage to Redmond.

[west linden]

I just want shadow the most its sick

[old kettle]

idk then, maybe give it 15-20 minutes

[sweet hare]

[carmine trail]

Shadows or Lightning are the ones I'm after.

[west linden]

I have ice rock and fire now trying to be like Thanos and get them all

[drifting pine]

how do you get fire

[lunar lake]

you mean like pokemon?

[warm nexus]

I just my Fire and Ice Unicorns from MCC in Infinite

[sweet hare]

get featured in a blog post of 343

[carmine trail]

They're literally the Halo Infinite Unicorns. "Infinite Unicorns" "Infinity Stones" same thing

[west linden]

Both works I was featured in the flights

[arctic quiver]

Get featured in a Halo Spotlight blog

[west linden]

That's how I got mine

[drifting pine]

sounds impossible lol

[golden shard]

There's a shadow??

[carmine trail]

speaking of which, still no spotlight this month 🙁

[sweet hare]

it's not that hard, they do art posts almost every month and feature like 40 people

[west linden]

That showed all 8

[thorny crescent]

it's not that hard to get featured on the blog in my experience. i have a success rate of 100% :p

[arctic quiver]

[old narwhal]

One of my friends was banned for leak discussion but they didn’t know it was against rules, is there anything they can do?

[arctic quiver]

They can file an appeal, but our rules are fairly clear

[old narwhal]

Ah ok, they said they filed one just haven’t heard back yet. Thank you very much

[carmine trail]

I've been featured twice in the past and have the Halo 5 and MCC rewards, but they were screenshots which Alex doesn't seem to feature anymore sadly.

[torpid beacon]

@carmine trail thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

[lunar lake]

on that note be careful. API data can be treated as "leaked" for some reason

[thorny crescent]

make sure you're disabling the pings in non urgent replies to mods

[west linden]

I would love to get the mcc one

The infinte one is sick as well though

[old kettle]

this may inspire me to get back into making halo art

[carmine trail]

My b

[thorny crescent]

my feature was for making my phone themed after the superintendent. i always meant to make a part two with sounds, but i never got the shortcuts to work

[tame sandal]

That's what you get for being in iOS ahahaha

[craggy burrow]

I got my Fire Unicorn cause I was QA for some dudes meme video. Which somehow got featured and I ended up with the skin.
My friend who was IN the video didnt get the skin though. Twas weird.

[tame sandal]

I have the superintendent set for whenever my family texts me, the rest of the notifications is the Portal 2 button

I also have the Threat Sensor's deploying sound set for my Google Nest Doorbell whenever it detects someone.

[thorny crescent]

see now, i was trying to make my phone randomly make SI noises when opening apps and stuff

[frozen briar]

mine was for the animated Halo Galaxy watchface I made

[tame sandal]

That random part seems interesting to implement

[arctic quiver]

I had to reset my watch and lost my theme :(

[thorny crescent]

but it was hard to package the audio neatly into the shortcut because i couldnt get it to obtain audio from base64

[arctic quiver]

Can't remember the key, so I can't rebuild it

[lusty pendant]

i always see cortali's awesome themes but cant make any/find any good halo ones

[west linden]

[dim sage]

How do you submit for the spotlight? Or do you just have to be noticed somewhere by an employee lol

[lusty pendant]

use the hashtag on twitter works well

[vast linden]

Are the unicorn emblem drops over??

[arctic quiver]

Nope

[thorny crescent]

.... oh i literally just figured out how to fix it

[west linden]

Hey how did you 2 become mods and admins if you don't mind me asking

[lethal cloud]

Haber si esta vez ya me lo dan. :3

[arctic quiver]

Invited by 343 a few years back for being helpful around Waypoint

[winged mirage]

a ver si me lo dan

[sweet hare]

another question, do mods get to give themselves emblem drops or do they have to earn them like everyone else by luck?

[tame sandal]

Now I'm interested

[thorny crescent]

343 invited me after being an active inheritor and providing help over in #471749501171007498 for a while

[craggy burrow]

Prove your a viable human being and helpful and boom.

[west linden]

So to become a mod i must use waypoint way more

[tame sandal]

We did a Halo Infinite FFA

[carmine trail]

Are mods/admins considered "343 Members" and get access to the exclusive in game loot?

[winged mirage]

no creo pero bueno

[thorny crescent]

check #471727324895641651 later and you'll see (:

[craggy burrow]

I keep forgetting Im an inheritor. I should use it to post more lore pictures

[tame sandal]

I ended up second

[west linden]

Who won?

[sweet hare]

oh lmao i was about to ask if you won

[thorny crescent]

mods arent 343, no

[lunar lake]

they arent 343i employees, no they dont get the 343i goodies

[somber ridge]

Halo has in-game loot? i have been playing the game wrong

[meager elk]

Mods are friends of 343

[craggy burrow]

Would be cool if they got to see the museum at least.

[carmine trail]

they're like unpaid interns

[lunar lake]

they are likely more in the know about promos than your average person but thats about it

[lusty inlet]

I want the inheritor role just to post pics to lol

[tame sandal]

@cold kayak, but that's because he has the nice Elite controller 😒

[west linden]

😆

[fresh zealot]

How you get it?

[lunar lake]

theres no way to buy replacement parts for the halo elite controller is there?

[craggy bay]

sounds like excuses

[lusty inlet]

afaik just be active here

[tame sandal]

Idk ask him

[thorny crescent]

you can contact xbox support i believe

[cold kayak]

[tame sandal]

Could be, but my controller has two back buttons and his has four, I ended up second and he ended up first.

Skill Issue or cash issue?

[fresh zealot]

ez i plan to aha

[lunar lake]

thanks. i just play so much that next year the rubbers gonna be gonzo ya know? lol

[west linden]

Violet well become inheritors together lol

[lunar lake]

friction of the thumbs and what not

[carmine trail]

Elite 2 is really good, but the biggest problem with it though is that it doesn't last long enough. The bumpers always break first.

[arctic quiver]

We need to enter most giveaways like regular members, but sometimes do get the odd thing thrown our way

[arctic quiver]

No, we're all volunteers

[sweet hare]

sounds pretty cool ngl

[somber ridge]

sounds like a lot of work for very little perk

[west linden]

Is fine

They help make halo better that's enough

[carmine trail]

Where does the Timmy emblem come from? I've just been assuming some higher up community members got it. Only seen like 2 people with it.

[west linden]

Getting a map in game was how u got it in 5
