halo-gear

[pallid apex]

i didnt, says redeemed on twitch but nothing on halowaypoint

ya i connected my account at redemption

[spark geode]

everyone that worked had connected before they started watching

everyone thats broken connected at redemption

connection at redemption should still work according to twitch drop rules

[pallid apex]

ya i would think so lol

i think its an issue with waypoint

[spark geode]

it is

[fast niche]

oh and did yall notice the target promo?

[spark geode]

ya i already got that one

[pallid apex]

yes the breach core

[fast niche]

yeah i didnt know about htat one. gonna have to head to target sometime and give it a shot

[pallid apex]

bought a cool grunt in a gunner turret

[fast niche]

https://www.target.com/p/halo-combat-evolved-20th-anniversary-2pk-cable-guy-phone-and-controller-holder-master-chief-38-cortana/-/A-82717894

also what the heck is this? lol

[earnest storm]

Epic

[pallid apex]

holds phone or controller

[fast niche]

i just didnt expect this item to exist. i get that its for holding stuff but still

[pallid apex]

they have a few different variations of chief

https://www.target.com/p/halo-large-vehicle-4-34-figure-38-vehicle-villain-vehicle-infinite-wave-2/-/A-82695394

i got this

[fast niche]

thats pretty cool

[pallid apex]

was going to return it but decided to keep it

[fast niche]

im not a fan of the return game.

reminds me. i need to make the canada account for the razorback or actually make the circlek journey still...

[onyx glen]

Guys why does it say I require a core to equip this item in the shop for the Mud Hog Wild and the Hazop Armor Set. Infact I cant even view the two bundles

[fast niche]

although i already have the razorback equipped from the day 1 snaffu

[pallid apex]

i just have to return my 3.5 inch chief

ordered the warthog combo and he comes with it

dont need 2 little chiefs running around, well sitting on my shelf

[fast niche]

oh and amazon still is offering the commando rifle for those who need that. got the email with it before the game disc even shipped

(bought it for the steelbook, already have the digital game)

[pallid apex]

im hoping bestbuy starts selling the steelbook alone

they do that from time to time

[pallid apex]

and bestbuy is still offering the blue BR i beleive

[earnest storm]

you can buy the bonus free steel book and return the game only keep the book be charged 10

at bestbuy

[pallid apex]

interesting, didnt know that. thought u needed to return the whole package

i dont have an xbox anymore so dont need a physcal game. atm. i will buy it later though just to have with my other halos

[earnest storm]

nope they just charge you for it if you dont return the free bonus 9.99+tax I assume

[pallid apex]

might do that then

@spark geode twitch told me to bug off pretty much. sent me to the FAQ page

[fast niche]

kinda tempted to do that too. as I dont need the game disc too badly honestly, just a case to put on the shelf

[pallid apex]

ya ill get the game when its been out for sometime to put it with the others

i think im going to get the series S when i do get an xbox again though

[fast niche]

and yeah bestbuy page says you get 2 free items with purchase. a steelbook valued at 9.99 and the code. so theyd charge ya for the book

[earnest storm]

I managed to get the series x from gamestop

[pallid apex]

ya i got one last year in November

sold it then got a ps5 in January then sold it

ended up getting a 3070 and just used my PC and left the consoles to collect dusty

[fast niche]

i got the halo series X. pretty happy with it although its not an upgrade compared to PC. it is a nice sit on the beanbag and chill

[pallid apex]

ya it looked cool, was going to get it but jut decided not to, just didnt want to hold up 500$

[spark geode]

its def an issue on halowaypoints side

[fast niche]

also do we know what the bonus is with the needler yet?

[earnest storm]

no and it comes out in december next year

[fast niche]

oh. i didnt notice that. i saw it on stream so thought it was further along in production

[earnest storm]

but buying it just to return it lol and use the code

[pallid apex]

preorder ends at the end of the year though. but ya 2022 december is release

im keeping it. go with my bulldog and AR

[fast niche]

i shouldve got the AR

[pallid apex]

needler one of my fav guns

[fast niche]

have had a couple chances, and just couldnt bring myself to get it

[pallid apex]

i used my cashback to buy it

from buying everyone's Christmas presents lol

[earnest storm]

I didnt like the ar tbh the skin either

[fast niche]

i just have too many other collections to be going nuts on halo full tilt

[pallid apex]

ive been slimming my stuff down

[fast niche]

(ive mentioned the n64 stuff before, having nearly 100 of them adds up, then 4 controllers per...)

[pallid apex]

used to have almost 1000 physical games but down 500 now and a lot less consoles/handhelds

yes

thats a lot

and the bulk of those 500 games is 245 n64 games and 110 switch games

[fast niche]

noice

thats nearly a full n64 set if not duplicates lol

[pallid apex]

i think there is 2 duplicates, nascar 1999 and i have the gold ocarina of time/reg cart

and 40 winks which isnt official release

[fast niche]

40 winks is interesting. its not part of the main set but id call it an official release, just long after lol

sidenote patch notes. noticed at the bottom it has a link about redeeming codes.

[spark geode]

@pallid apex Halo support got back to me, they said they dont have a work around at the moment but are looking into it

That is pretty frustrating

[pallid apex]

sounds good

dont know why they couldnt just generate a code with the plate

[fast niche]

at least theyre looking into it. thats pretty good

[spark geode]

theres no code to it

[pallid apex]

i know but they probably have a template to implement it . i would just make 1 off codes with the content. maybe take a few days?

[fast niche]

thats a fair bit of employee time that could be devoted to fixing the root cause though possibly

especially while they are looking at whats up

[pallid apex]

ya i guess. but it would help keep the complaining down while fixing the actual problem. just to have a code to copy and paste if brought up

[spark geode]

now im hoping that my account is connected properly

because there will be more twitch drops next week

[pallid apex]

i took my account off then reconnected it

nothing changed so dont do that lol afraid i might of messed it up ]

[fast niche]

if folks notice such promos call em out. help eachother out lol. id have missed this one without yall

[spark geode]

we must think alike, cause i tried it too just to see if reconnecting would kick things off

[limpid oyster]

nobody else got the nameplate yet?

[pallid apex]

i think grav said he got his

[spark geode]

yeah some people got theirs

some people didnt

[limpid oyster]

you mentioned something about redemption history where do you see that?

[pallid apex]

https://www.halowaypoint.com/redeem?view=history

[limpid oyster]

yeah its not there for me

says i redeemed it on twitch though

[pallid apex]

same

[fast niche]

i see it in my history. i havent opened the game to check yet.

and note personal habit is to refresh the hisotry page twice

as it sometimes needs to update and refreshing will have it load your most recent thing

[spark geode]

everyone who got it in their history has it

but there are those of us who do not have it in their history for some reason

even though we followed nearly the same steps

[pallid apex]

mhm same

[spark geode]

wait the red shift armor is back

but only in canada?

lol F

[idle stump]

that hazop armor bundle is absolute cheeks 🤢

[spark geode]

they are going to sell us every reach armor set which is a little lame

[idle stump]

yeah... especially because I unlocked that stuff 10 years ago lol

I don't mind paying for the new Mk7 stuff but

[fast niche]

that ended yesterday it seems as well. so nope

oh wait i misread. its still active in canada

time to get a buddy to buy some halo swag

[earnest storm]

I didnt get the nameplate

[spark geode]

There is a line of us who claimed it, but when we claimed it there was nothing in our redemption history

[earnest storm]

oh for me I went to get int and connected my halowaypoint watched an hour the thing didnt even come up in my dropbox

but I checked the halo campaign drop page it said connected and everything

[pallid apex]

i wonder if i can cross the border to canada now lol

[spark geode]

do you have it claimed in your drop inventory

[tardy sentinel]

You know when the promo ends

[pallid apex]

@spark geode they just told me they really cant do anything, and are waiting to see if more people submit the issue and will get back to me if something changes

[fast niche]

nope. no clue

[fast niche]

border is open afaik.

[pallid apex]

i live like 30-40 something mins from 2 bridges to get over

and a tunnel

[spark geode]

guess we'll see over time, but they told me they made a ticket and are looking into it

[pallid apex]

i mean its the not the end of the world but still i hate DLC. always something up

[fast niche]

hmm. i wonder what i said that set off the bot

rona

nope. that doesnt set it off. oh well

[opal zinc]

anyone else find it kinda sad that the only way to earn cosmetics is by going through the battle pass, a linear system that can be bought instead

[fast niche]

was just saying. its nice to be around the border to get promo stuff imo. i live too far away though

[fast niche]

campaignoffers some cosmetics btw

[pallid apex]

i have distant family members in canada but they are older and i dont speak to them much

what do u have to do the for the one in canada?

[fast niche]

https://www.haloinfinitenews.com/post/gamestop-promotion

basically just buy any halo item at a physical gamestop in canada

[pallid apex]

exactly 1hr away is the nearest canada gamestop

[opal zinc]

True, but even then its just something on a map that you go to

[fast niche]

correct

[opal zinc]

If I recall correctly, in reach you had to be a certain rank to purchase certain armor pieces

So when you were playing multiplayer

and you saw someone with the skull helmet

you knew that they had earned that and were at least semi decent at the game

but now its just battlepass

[idle stump]

Yeah, progression tied to achievement is how people get addicted to games

Progression tied to how much you are willing to spend is how companies get rich

So they have quickly gone away with this method lol

[opal zinc]

but why not a combination

[idle stump]

That's a great question lol

[opal zinc]

or even a hint of the achievement aspect

[idle stump]

I'm all ears aswell

[opal zinc]

even completing legendary

is it just a nameplate?

[idle stump]

I have spent about $40 on cosmetics on Halo infinite (including the BP)

And $40 is about all I feel the game is worth

So that's probably all I'll buy for the foreseeable future

[pallid apex]

i like buying the physical stuff

for the codes. havent got anything from the store yet

[idle stump]

I would agree but if you already have a working keyboard/headset
$160 for an extra keyboard and a Razer themed armor skin seems pretty insane lol

[earnest storm]

I spent the 9 bucks to get the pass cause i was tired of lvling up and seeing no rewards lol

That is all they are getting from me

[pallid apex]

had all working stuff before i got it lol

just gunna clean them up and sell them on my ebay page

[idle stump]

I getcha, I personally am not one for the flipping lifestyle.

[pallid apex]

wanted the replace the keyboard for a bit though its a 2014 razer BW. so its been round

[idle stump]

I usually use stuff into the ground

[opal zinc]

Im not against any of that, the battle pass or the physical tied cosmetics, they are great additions actually. I guess im just sad that there is no unique cosmetics you can get in the game, Imagine you got a sick helmet for completing LASO, it would be rare but when you saw it in game you knew that the person had been through hell to get it

A dream is all it is

[pallid apex]

oh flip all the time and buy/sell so its not new to me.

[idle stump]

its not bad to feel that way, I just think its a way of the past. Most people have given up on the hope

[tardy eagle]

Yep. Im not I just hate the game more everytime I see "Premium Battle pass required" Its so greedy

[idle stump]

Well the game from the rip should've just been pay to play

the whole F2P model gives companies the excuse to just tack on every little piece of anything.

[pallid apex]

id be careful mods will start deleting comments if the f2p/pay thing is discussed in here

usually just kick ya to the infinite chat

[idle stump]

idc tbh

I can go somewhere else lol

[tardy eagle]

Pretty much

[pallid apex]

just saying, not the first time its happened

[idle stump]

I can imagine it's not the first time someone has had a ripe opinion lol

[tardy eagle]

I just got to level 12 and needed to vent

because man

I just want some armour like give me ammo pouches atleast

[pallid apex]

im at 67

[idle stump]

I'm at 56

[opal zinc]

30

[idle stump]

and I only have like 20 hours

I did buy 7 cans of rockstar though

which gave me a metric dump truck of 2xp

[tardy eagle]

Ive been working very hard

[spark geode]

Leveling is absurdly easy atm, if you arent level 100 you are prolly casual. I hit 100 last week

[opal zinc]

dont think us EUs get the rockstar opportunity

[tardy eagle]

Making presents for people (3D Printer)

[opal zinc]

"absurdly" sure

[tardy eagle]

Just been roleplaying as Santa haha

[idle stump]

you're probably sitting at above 200 hours already if you hit 100 lol

[spark geode]

Crack a couple double exp on tuesday and watch the levels fly

[tardy eagle]

Didnt they make a post saying "We are addressing the bad leveling up system since its grindy?"

[idle stump]

I imagine anything more than "casual" is playing 30+ hours a week

[spark geode]

https://i.imgur.com/5HmS038.png

[idle stump]

wish I could sit at home and play all day lol

[tardy eagle]

Sank 23 hours in Total

14 hours this week

[idle stump]

I have 24 hours in total

[spark geode]

it takes me about 3ish hours to finish all challenges, so thats about 3 double exp

[opal zinc]

you must use tons of challenge swaps

[spark geode]

i do use a couple, but not many

i think im averaging 5-6

[opal zinc]

Think theyll ever add performance based xp to the battle pass

give people incentive to win games

play objectives

[idle stump]

maybe for season 2

[spark geode]

i do think they'll revamp progression some how, but it'll be a while

[idle stump]

I think 6-8 months this will really be a great game

i don't expect anything for the next 5 months though

[opal zinc]

what do think its majorly lacking now

[idle stump]

not the gameplay thats for sure

its a solid, fun experience. It just lacks a reason to grind.

There is no grind

Once you get your fill of matches, complete your dailies, or weeklys.

There is no reason to hop back on

[opal zinc]

do you think then that the battlepass is currently the only option for EARNED (not the shop) cosmetics until the new season?

[spark geode]

I mostly want them to fix some of the major issues of the game, like desync, stability, performance, games starting with missing people

[opal zinc]

or will there be a drop of something else soon

[idle stump]

do I think? I think its pretty well known that it is.

[opal zinc]

damn

[idle stump]

there won't be any extra battlepass

they have their limited time events coming up

but they're all pretty trivial in what they're offering

mostly armor coatings, and some accessories

which is really just a trampoline to sell event themed items in their shop lol

[opal zinc]

Underwhelming

At least have the option to earn store credits in the battlepass

like most others do

then you could grind the pass to purchase store bundles

to an extent

[spark geode]

Personally I'm having a blast. I'm not sure what else major everyone wants besides fixing the glaring issues.

[fast niche]

i consider doing that. but then i ultimately just hoard. so I end up surrounded by swag. I seriously believe theres a decent chance Ill be crushed by an avalanche of swag at some point and thats how Ill end.

[pallid apex]

lol, i did it a lot precovid. buy and sell big lots of video games. keep what i wanted

[fast niche]

buried alive by N64, or masterchief helmet, etc, seems like a joke but i think its a non zero chance

[spark geode]

Wait we can embed stuff here now?

https://i.imgur.com/j8nPM5b.png

[fast niche]

you can drop links which embed as discord hides the link if its just an image for one of the supported services

[spark geode]

@pallid apex I heard from reddit on the 17th during the HSC championship might be another opportunity to get the milked nameplate, make sure everythings linked properly

[pallid apex]

ya i hope it is lol

[dark tangle]

Folks, please remember that this channel is for discussing Halo merchandise Any general discussion about Infinite or in-game items can be done in #483759756566069258

[fast niche]

does talking about the promo items not hit that? (I havent read all of the recent discussion, just checking)

as most promo skins lately at least have been tied to purchases of physical merch

[pallid apex]

ya i get discussing infinite/battle pass but id rather stay out of infinite chat for just some skins fighting slow mode.

[spark geode]

That's my issue, there's no good space to discuss all the game purchasable content. infinite has slow-mode and gets lost immediately in the noise

[pallid apex]

i mean i guess share your content might work but i though that was for like youtube and streamers

[terse laurel]

imagine master chief with a tophat and monicle

[pallid apex]

it does say screenshots on the room.

[terse laurel]

devs best be takin notes

[trail flicker]

So upset I didn't get the Got Milked Emblem :(

[pallid apex]

a bunch of people didint

[spark geode]

Welcome to the club

[trail flicker]

I put in my support ticket

[spark geode]

same

gotta make noise

[earnest storm]

Never

I highly advise against bu ying the shop armor its a mark V armor so you cant use promo coatings campaign or most purchased coatings

[spark geode]

? what do you mean

[earnest storm]

its a mark V armor and I heard it was originally supposed to be in the battlepass in the 120 lvls

[spark geode]

yeah instead of headlines someone actually analyzed the 120 battle pass

https://i.imgur.com/JUIiBLH.jpg

it wasnt as armor littered as people are screaming about

[earnest storm]

still

mark V

so you cant use most coatings

[spark geode]

i have a feeling they will open things up some what in the future, maybe not 100% but i think its on their radar

[earnest storm]

btw the current shop armor basically cost 3k points

because it doesnt come with the base core

you are req to buy the battlepass

[pallid apex]

Can't buy, trade or sell on the discord

[spark geode]

this seems like an oversight on someones part

[earnest storm]

highly doubt it

[pallid apex]

I still want my milk

[earnest storm]

it was the same thing with the event armorcore

same

[main goblet]

does anyone know where to go to find news about free cosmetics and stuff? I found about the milk emblem only when I saw someone using it and looked it up only to find I was an hour late...

[pallid apex]

Well I guess it's better than unlocking it in stream and never getting it

[spark geode]

Lol yeah cause I might be locked out of next attempt too

[tardy sentinel]

There’s a website called infinite news has a list of the promotions that are active. Or just check back here as people usually post something when there’s a promo

[earnest storm]

was reading the twitter post it seems basically no one got it if anyone

[tardy sentinel]

I feel lucky I got it

No delay or anything

[earnest storm]

you got the milk in game?

[tardy sentinel]

Yeah

[earnest storm]

most people didnt gg lol

[tardy sentinel]

It’s odd they didn’t really even promote it

[burnt fox]

what milk?

[tardy sentinel]

A nameplate that had milk carton character on it

[burnt fox]

oh damn

when was that?

[tardy sentinel]

Last night

[burnt fox]

ive been doing the campaign so forgot about online for the time being

[earnest storm]

Hey, the blood shadow armor coating wasn’t unlocked for me in multiplayer whenever I got it in the campaign. Any way I can fix that?

[rare saffron]

not that you can do no. 343 is aware and is working on a retroactive fix

[fast niche]

i got it so some people did

[earnest storm]

Ok. Thanks for the feedback.

[icy bane]

The "milk" unlock for me was an ar decal

[split pumice]

When will the halo infinite campaign soundtrack come to Amazon music?

I would be very happy to have it on there

[earnest storm]

lol

[fast niche]

its both a decal and nameplate

[spark geode]

Wtb milk nameplate that I earned

[earnest storm]

its cool that the servers are so pummled that the store doesnt even load for me

wow and fiesta seems unplayable - enemy team had 2 wallhackers. we killed the first enemy when it was already 0-17, coming around the corner to pinpoint the SPNKR into a window to headshot a crouching spartan or hammering around the corner... wonder how they even have fun like that

[shell cipher]

Wish they will make an option to use armor coatings across all armor cores :P

Since I like coatings for Mk7, why we can't use Arctic void (mk7 coatings) on Mk5... Damn it

[rare cloud]

Dang I remember when this chat was about gear

[fast niche]

its about both isnt it? as skins come from gear sometimes. its good to be tracking those promos in addition to the other swag we are snagging already (helps prioritize gear slightly)

[pallid apex]

well i think most ingame stuff is supposed to be in share your content room but i mean why does it mater. ingame gear or irl gear. both halo gear lol

[crisp vessel]

yeah I find myself talking about ingame stuff and irl merch here

ingame items wise still a tad bummed out that pre-ordering on steam didn’t get me the armor coating as I did actually like it.

Unless I’m misinformed and just missed it or something idk

[earnest storm]

it looks like a 20th century workout outfit tbh

[crisp vessel]

True, I just like the white undersuit but tbh I like coatings that are white and yellow or black and yellow

got a bee theme goin on

[earnest storm]

when you put it on its less appealing and looks more like that when you see it in game

[pallid apex]

had some gift card money to spend, got me some grunts https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B085QLP5BZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[earnest storm]

I wear it because of rarity lol

but only for now

[static vortex]

just found the skin funko for 35euro worth ?

[earnest storm]

nice you should paint one red

[pallid apex]

i paid like 12 bucks for the funko with the code locally

[static vortex]

dang nice. cant find any stores that have it currently

local

[pallid apex]

ya not sure how different it is in eu. i personally dont like the skin i use my razer skin

[static vortex]

razer one is nice. i actually like the Oreo one best. but that i cant get 😦

[earnest storm]

https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/FU51104?gclid=Cj0KCQiAweaNBhDEARIsAJ5hwbdzEUmhiZRm2aYyKoAY7fbjoEELAk-RtjLgRWiOV-RRIKurabw8CLMaAqnZEALw_wcB

[upper copper]

i should have got that one instead of the red and black one
because the red is faded

[static vortex]

nice nice il look into their shipping

ah damn they take 30dollars for shipping to me.. 😛

[whole lance]

Funko pop owners 😔

[earnest storm]

I found a stance in campaign

[static vortex]

the pops are going in the trash the codes are staying

[pallid apex]

ya ive been finding all the skulls and lockers of the ingame stuff

[pallid apex]

literally only have 1 pop and its the halo one for the skin

[crisp vessel]

Tbh I wish I could still get the gamestop coating as something about it has an appeal to me but I believe that promotion ended with last years delay

[crisp vessel]

Wish my wallet could feel the same

[earnest storm]

I missed it because I didnt know it was even still going on till the 13th for this year

I found out too late

[spark geode]

That's what i did

[pallid apex]

still want my milk

[spark geode]

LOL same man

my ticket is still open

[pallid apex]

me too

[spark geode]

btw my plan for HSC, if they offer milk again

is to have another twitch account ready, since it just adds it to your redemption history

once its there you can swap back to your other twitch acct

[crisp vessel]

The gamestop was going on till the 13th of december?
If so AAAAA

[pallid apex]

ya i didnt know that, and i bought a bulldog nerf not to long ago from gamestop and didnt check the receipt

to see if it counted

[crisp vessel]

Dang, wonder if possibly getting a receipt code could even work past the 13th for redemption.
I’d assume not.

[spark geode]

it looks like mega constructs just released a limited warthog rally with a new armor coating

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91lHe2Rqg7S._AC_SL1500_.jpg

[crisp vessel]

Oh yeah that set

[spark geode]

but it will have a blue sticker on it

that says includes DLC

[crisp vessel]

Its like a half blue half black warthog I believe

ingame wise

[spark geode]

this one is an armor coating

its new

[crisp vessel]

Hmn which one is the warthog coating?

[spark geode]

https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ee59cf_f4b2e79e5d38472ba50fcc658a95823a~mv2.jpg

this one is the warthog

[pallid apex]

ya i wanted that set but procrastinated

[spark geode]

it annoys me that they stamped a sub-set of the boxes

[tranquil vector]

Any idea what the skin looks like?

[spark geode]

https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ee59cf_8fadf946be3a40198406f6a72268b8df~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_681,h_1048,al_c,q_90,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01/Image-empty-state.webp

[pallid apex]

so almost the zeta skin

[spark geode]

very close but arms are white

lol

[tranquil vector]

thanks, thats kinda cool

[woeful plaza]

I'm thinking of 3d printing this any thoughts https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:68620

i dont have space on my book shelf

[earnest storm]

lmao an 80 dollar art book almost as if it were a college book xD

[pallid apex]

filled it with videogames

[rare cloud]

the base version is $30

thats the delux

[pallid apex]

39.99

[rare cloud]

$36 on US amazon

[rigid gyro]

Is the Butterfinger promo still going on?

[spark geode]

No

By the end of this month most promos will be finished

[opal zinc]

😔

[fast niche]

if your college books were $80.. man thats cheap. I wish my text books were that cheap. seeing them under $100 was happy moments for me in college. had to hunt around importing and what not and pray a bit to get em that cheap lol

whats the difference in the normal and deluxe? and is there a digital version?

[fast niche]

any swag folks are picking up with the discount?

[hot path]

am missing halo gear reward? is that happing too everyone else?

[fast niche]

what do you mean?

[fast niche]

dont forget the pilot action figure is exclusive to the gear shop and has the skull weapon charm

so might be good to pick it up right now with the 15% off if youre going for the promo skins

[earnest storm]

you might wanna try making it out of foam, 3d printing it may make it too rigid, might be uncomfortable

[fast niche]

depends on your filament and the part

but yeah a solid plastic can be uncomfortable to wear. think about your movement and adjust your model and production as needed

[neon solar]

AYO anyone else not get the got milked nameplate? it says claimed but it hasn't popped up as redeemed on HW in 2 days now

[fast niche]

for example the shoulder pieces may be fine but you might want ot modify them slightly and back them with foam to give them more distance from your body to allow more travel of them before they contact ya and stop movement

[fast niche]

yes some people have that issue. its being investigated. check your halo waypoint redeem screen as well. if its not there then yorue one of the impacted folks most likely and just need to cross your fingers probably

[neon solar]

yeah, I've been keeping an eye on redeem code/ redemption history. It's all good though! hopefully they'll get it all fixed or something. It'll probably return sometime soon, so If not I'll try again at a later time. but thank you :))

[woeful plaza]

yea i might try it

[pallid apex]

Ya I'm one of them. I asked halowaypoint and they kind if just said that they cannot give out nameplates and such but will see if anymore people have the issue and get back to me

[uncut glade]

[candid sage]

Does anyone kno if you can get the zeta sky armor coating still?

[tardy sentinel]

the only way to get it is to buy it from somewhere like ebay since it was a preorder bonus

[candid sage]

Okay thanks, do you happen to kno how to get the wall breacher coating?

[tardy sentinel]

It's a target promo, you have to buy select products and then send in your receipt to a thing to get the coating. The chapest items are one of the 6.5" figures which are around $20 or a figure 3 pack which is $30. If you want to know how to submit it theres a website called infinite news which has all the active promos listed.

[candid sage]

Awesome thanks

[tardy sentinel]

np

[hollow pond]

Ordered the nerf bulldog off of Amazon and it comes tmrw

Or whatever the shotgun is called

[pallid apex]

nice i have the ar and bulldog\

[hollow pond]

Ar is being scalped will hafta wait till it isn’t

Because I may not be the biggest fan of nerf, both the AR and the skin look fantastic

[pallid apex]

ya i got it at retail so i get ya. took a bit

[pallid apex]

https://bonusgamecontent.com/Support#participatingProducts

the cheapest is like bygone said, 6.5 inch is 19.99 or u can do the chopper which is also 19.99

some of the 4inch halo world ones are 20 bucxks too

u can just return the product after too

[tardy sentinel]

thought the 4" figures didn't count towards the promotion

[pallid apex]

they do i got teh grunt with turret and it worked

the single figures might not work

4-inch World of Halo Figure & Vehicle Assortment

[tardy sentinel]

gotcha

[tranquil vector]

I have the AR, and I am planning on getting the Bulldog

[lusty fern]

Any way to get the red shift coating from Canadian GameStop when I'm in the US? Don't really want to drive 100 miles to Canada. Honestly I'd buy and ship a figure to someone in Canada if I knew anyone

[pallid apex]

i thought it ended the 14th

nvm its the 24th

i would go get something, im about 1 hr (40miles) from the nearest Canadian GameStop but not sure if my passport is still good

[lusty fern]

I'm 100 miles away and that's 2 hours

Debating making the trek, but it doesn't seem worth it

[pallid apex]

tbh i dont even think crossing the boarder is worth it

just for a skin for 1 armor set

too much of a hassle to go all that way

[limpid oyster]

same

i still havent got mine

[fast niche]

Do ya have a friend in Canada? If so just order something shipped to them

The promo does apply to online order

[pallid apex]

might run into the issue with the uk promo. best to just have them order and u send them the moneys

[silent trail]

ya know where to find the halo infinite rockstar drinks, i found only 1 drink of the 3rd to the set. that was at CVS. i checked every deli and corner store near me and not one store sold rockstar drinks period. im trying to get the whole set.

[pallid apex]

gas stations, chain grocery stores, corner stores, liquor stores, walmart

i found most of mine at gas stations

[tardy sentinel]

You can also order off of Amazon

[silent trail]

oh wooooooow

ya saw the swavroksi x halo crystal figures they made? they are gorgeous. sadly you can't purchase them, you can only enter to win.

[meager wave]

fr?

[silent trail]

i entered and imma try the only 2 stores in NY to see them.

[silent trail]

look them up, they are gorgeous. and they are huge. they aren tiny

[meager wave]

damn

aight

[pallid apex]

ya i donated 10 bucks and signed up for the free 1

[silent trail]

you can donate to increase your odds? i entered on their site and thats all that i saw i can do.

[pallid apex]

ya its over now i believe for both enter online and dnonate

im curious if the funko pop coming out

comes with an in game skin

[pallid apex]

the combat evolved 1?

[spark geode]

they said on the stream theres a limited edition coming out at the end of this month

[pallid apex]

interesting

[hollow pond]

The bulldog is a pain to assemble like I don’t wanna break it putting in the drum

[pallid apex]

ya i want to remove the drum and im afraid to do that

[hollow pond]

Why remove it I wanna assemble mine and leave it on a drawer or wall

[pallid apex]

i was using some big nails and the drum makes it sit to far from the wall

might have to get some longer nails or like flat metal hook things to hold it

i have the AR on the wall

[spark geode]

im trying to get a shelf to hang stuff on

[hollow pond]

Got it assembled

Skin looks amazing too

used to be a huge nerf fan and have massive 'nerf wars' with family and friends so it's a throwback for sure

[pallid apex]

its nerf or nothing

[hollow pond]

NERF OR NOTHING

my fave just happened to be this big green drum mag one that I donated a while back, glad to be moving into a bigger house for space

[crisp vessel]

Huh haven’t heard anything on that yet, seen anything or merely just told about it?

[spark geode]

they just teased it

[crisp vessel]

Hmn I see

[pallid apex]

@spark geode halowaypoint sent me an update email

[spark geode]

o?

[pallid apex]

just asking if the problem is fixed since they did the update....

[spark geode]

lol no

[pallid apex]

i told them no, i think it has something to do with ur site and twitches connection...

[spark geode]

It seems when you try to claim it does a push to an API for a redeem code, but since it wasnt linked it fails and you're stuck

idk ive done drops before

never had them break because i connected at claim

[pallid apex]

this was my first drop

[fast niche]

Yeah that's why I made an extended mag for my Prometheus

Man I wish there was a NERF version of the Halo 4 SAW

Or any turret. Idk I just like having that much firepower. It's fun

[graceful jewel]

Any new halo gear

[pallid apex]

i mean im getting a figure today thats new to me lol

[manic lichen]

I got a in box mini series 1 joy ride chief and jackal set on eBay for only 17 bucks! In box!!!!!

[pallid apex]

nice

the one that got delievered today was chief with warthog

[manic lichen]

Normally mini series joyride stuff goes for a couple hundred in box so I’m pretty poggers right now

[manic lichen]

Ooh ce or halo 2 warthog

[pallid apex]

its the newer jazware one from infinite

[manic lichen]

Oh sorry lol

[pallid apex]

dont really collect figures but wanted a couple

got the warthog w/chief, grunt w/turret and a jackal sniper

[manic lichen]

im pretty big into figure collecting personally

[pallid apex]

I collect video games

https://imgur.com/a/0yG9zxY

Only wanted a few of the figures, just to have them in the background

https://imgur.com/a/A9d9Fzl

Have one more set coming and that would be it.

Only reason I have the funko and the pilot figure is for the codes

[hallow crystal]

Where can I buy a cortana body pillow

[pallid apex]

Maybe wish?

[icy bane]

pffft just go to a tshirt place and bring a blank

[turbid crag]

https://imgur.com/a/e5x5InK decided to customize the anniversary master chief figure by making the visor smooth since it had a polygon like look ( i had to use imgur due to me not able to post files here )

[icy bane]

looks nice

[pallid apex]

Ya looks good

[manic lichen]

how did u de polygon that head? it looks so much better like that

[turbid crag]

i sanded it down and repainted it

taking off the visor part wasn't too hard on my copy

the paint i used was gold acrylic paint

[brave oxide]

I'm getting the Master Chief Helmet soon as it comes to my local GameStop

[lusty fern]

You sure?

[fast niche]

afaik yes

gotta be canada though

[lusty fern]

Well GameStop.ca won't even show me my cart

[fast niche]

are you from canada?

[lusty fern]

No

[brave oxide]

Nope

[fast niche]

well thats your problem

[lusty fern]

Vpn time

[fast niche]

youll need an address to ship to as well

[brave oxide]

It's available Jan of 2022

[lusty fern]

What is?

[brave oxide]

The Master Chief helmet

[lusty fern]

Oh

[fast niche]

its available until the 24th. not sure where you got january.

we arent talkinga bout that

[brave oxide]

I know

[lusty fern]

Unfortunately I have no one I know in Canada

[wide gulch]

i neeed a master chief helm. anyone know where i can get a good one for christmas. wanna display it in my dorm

[pallid apex]

I pre-ordered my helmet from them. Looks nice, hate that it has weird soumd effects. Should of just kept it at chief sound bites

[brave oxide]

Agreed, but it'll make for both a badass cosplay piece and a nice display piece.

I already own a Halo 4 helmet which also works for Halo 5 since it's the same design, though I will be replacing that because I broke it, the new helmet can work for Halo 2, Halo 3, and Infinite because they're all relatively the same design, so all I'll need is a Mark V helmet to complete the collection.

[fickle jolt]

anyone know where i could get an emile helmet in the EU?

[brave oxide]

Etsy probably

[fast niche]

oh yeah they did mention a full size helmet. where can we buy that?

[brave oxide]

Which helmet do you mean?

[fast niche]

during the stream yuesterday they said something about a full sized one

[amber sedge]

https://www.gamestop.com/collectibles/replicas/products/jazwares-halo-the-spartan-collection-master-chief-helmet-replica-gamestop-exclusive/11101160.html

[brave oxide]

Right and that's what I've been talking about.

I'm getting that one, a new Halo 4 one, and a Mark V one.

And they are all going to be signed by the voices of Master Chief and Cortana

[somber hornet]

Anyone know what the bonus content is for this sword?

https://www.gamestop.ca/Toys-Collectibles/Games/875757/halo-roleplay-weapon-energy-sword

Gamestop is giving out Red Shift Armor core for buying something Halo related until Christmas Eve

[fast niche]

thanks. i wonder if it will even fit me sadly. Always have to scale up most cosplay helmets/masks to fit me. not massively but stuff thats meant to be ready to use as is models... just arent.

Good to know

[fiery path]

Anyone able to figure out a way to redeem your Rockstar energy drink codes to your Halo account if you run it threw steam?

[tardy sentinel]

Pretty sure you have to have an Xbox account connected to the rockstar one that is connected to the steam account

[sweet berry]

Redeem the Rockstar codes on their website first, which should give you codes that you can enter on Halo Waypoint.

Then it should just be associated with your Xbox account.

[pallid apex]

wow they have been licensing to everyone

[dark tangle]

This looks so good

[pallid apex]

i think if i used equipment like that it would be cool. looks cool but no use for it. i think it retails like 999.99

https://www.riddell.com/riddell/en/c/SPEEDFLEX-AUTH-MASTER-CHIEF-HALO-20TH/p/000000000008058054

[earnest storm]

cost over 500 dollars more for a branded halo masterchief version

and its ugly af

[fast niche]

Does it? It makes no sense to me. Who is this product aimed at?

Best thought I can think of is something about sportsball fans, the type that get helmets and jerseys to hang up, but that simultaneously like Halo? Is that a notable population?

As it's a purely cosmetic item. It's only task is to sit on a shelf. But if you like Halo why get this instead of a normal helmet?
If you like sportsball why get this instead of your teams helmet?

Only thing I can think of is someone very tight on space who likes sportsball and oddball and really really can't fit 2 helmets in their house

[pallid apex]

im sure its marketed to sports people and people who play sports and want a unique helmet

[fast niche]

This can not be used for play though otherwise I'd have agree

The Master Chief inspired helmet is for display use only and is not designed or intended for actual play or use.

[pallid apex]

ya ur right says it right on the website its display only

thats funny

[earnest storm]

424.99 for a regular version 999.99 for the ugly masterchief version

[pallid apex]

i mean it was the same with the lakers jersey lol

master chief 117... like i said they have really marketing and licensing out this time around

[earnest storm]

even worse if you cant even use it

[dark tangle]

There will be a market for it, you can be sure of that

[pallid apex]

i think its small but people will buy it to have it.

[fast niche]

The 999 version can't be used though so it's worse

[earnest storm]

so basically 999.99 for a 100-200 dollar variant of the helmet

[pallid apex]

would be a weird flex though to have

at least the helmet i preordered has sound effects lol

[earnest storm]

you can literally get the regular one and pay some one far less to make it look far better and be a halo helmet

[pallid apex]

ya but its not "official" which some people do care about

[fast niche]

You said it looks nice though. Do ya have some insight on who it's nice for though?

[pallid apex]

i think its looks cool but not 1000 cool

[fast niche]

I just am genuinely curious of the target audience

[earnest storm]

I dont get why people care so much about it being official when half the halo stuff is cheap garbage

[fast niche]

Because official is a nice label

[pallid apex]

i think its going to be the hardcore collectors that are going to buy it and maybe like u said halo/sport fan

hey let me be happy with my cheap garbage

[fast niche]

Like yeah I could go olive drab and shiny orange all my stuff and it'd look cool but it'd not be official. So it's different

[earnest storm]

you literally have to tear up your keyboard and customize it .-.

[fast niche]

I am still tempted to get the keyboard and gut it

Put in some good switches

[pallid apex]

i mean i have a hakko desolder gun. it would take me 15 mins to change switches.....

[earnest storm]

the keys on that thing that it comes with sound like they are designed to be loud af even with a slight press

[fast niche]

And a proper mainboard with a non trash controller

[pallid apex]

but its still official

:p

[earnest storm]

and the halo jackets most are designed to hang up on your wall not use lmao

[pallid apex]

i dont care for the clothes that much. might get a t shirt though

[fast niche]

If I was in highschool or something the clothes would likely be cooler

[pallid apex]

ive thought about it. maybe later down the road. like i said i have a hot air station, desoldering gun and iron. so it wouldnt take me long. that desoldering gun changed my life

[fast niche]

Well I'd just swap all the electronics. No hot air needed

I am excited for the playing cards. They look pretty neat

Though I figure at best theyll feel like a bicycle deck from the dollar store

But as a keepsake they'll be appreciated

[pallid apex]

i should of got the 6ft standee lol

but 70 bucks was a lot for cardboard

[fast niche]

Sitenote when can we get a good Halo jacket with pouches to put padding and what not ya know? Give me that and I'll buy one to wear around gaming related things sometimes

It's a slightly military themed game so wouldn't be too out of place to offer such a thing I think

[pallid apex]

i got this coming lol

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T43OJB0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

next years costume

paid $30

[earnest storm]

for example emile helmet jacket thin as a t shirt their shirts feel thicker and the emile helmet easily washes off with in 1-2 washes

their 99.99 jackets the outer coating easily washes off and is cheap garbage

[fast niche]

Yeah so sell me a good like 300-500 jacket that I can add inserts to perhaps?

[pallid apex]

yes

[dusk osprey]

Depends where you live

[pallid apex]

its the Razer blackwidow V3, Deathadder, kaira pro and goliath mat

[steady raptor]

They have it on gamestop website

thats my set up.

[steady raptor]

Recently ordered the hyperkin Duke controller with cortana on it

[pallid apex]

has it all pictured

[dusk osprey]

You can order it off razer but it would be US Keyboard layout and then everything else is just the same

[pallid apex]

the mat give us xp i believe, keyboard is the green br skin, mouse is the fangs emblem for name plate, and headset is armor coating

[steady raptor]

https://hyperkinlab.com/hyperkin-duke-wired-controller-for-xbox-series-x-s-xbox-one-windows-10-cortana-20th-anniversary-limited-edition-officially-licensed-by-343-xbox/ don't think this is coming with a code but still a fun little thing

[spark geode]

on halowaypoint?

[pallid apex]

[spark geode]

yes it shows my actual twitch username

[pallid apex]

[spark geode]

seemed to do the trick

if its bugged def still time to make another account

i also have my adblockers disabled for twitch, just in case

[pallid apex]

ya i tried another browser and different account, still nothing

account still says ....

[spark geode]

i got feedback pretty quick, i hit claim -> went right to redemption history and it was there

[pallid apex]

well im not sure whats going on

[spark geode]

i would log out, unlink from halowaypoint, unlink from twitch, log out of twitch, clear all cookies, and disable all adblockers, then relink from twitch

[pallid apex]

well still nothing....

it doesnt list my twitch name on halowaypoint .com shows three dots where the name should be

[spark geode]

did you try claiming already?

[spark geode]

nice, hopefully the milked nameplate gets sorted out

[pallid apex]

hopefull it works at my house. did u go through twitch or waypoint to link it?

[spark geode]

after i unlinked everything and cleared all my cookies/saved data i linked from twitch

[pallid apex]

I guess this isn't the right room to discuss this, so I'll probably hop in the help room

[pallid apex]

It worked

[spark geode]

very nice

[pallid apex]

Still want my milk though

[spark geode]

Same

[candid sage]

yeah so im having the same issue, all my stuff is linked up correctly, got my drops 5 hours ago and still nothing in game

claimed them and all

but nothing in game

[spark geode]

Do you see your name or … in waypoint

[candid sage]

yeah shows my name

[spark geode]

Did you link it when you claimed or before

[candid sage]

i did it last night so before

[spark geode]

And is there anything in your redemption history on waypoint ?

[candid sage]

nope nothing i checked

on the twitch app its says i claimed and got them

nothing on halowaypoint tho

[spark geode]

might be a bug and i would both make a ticket and make a new twitch account to try again

actually wish i would of known all this for the milk nameplate

big rip

[candid sage]

where do i make a ticket

on halowaypoint?

[spark geode]

https://support.halowaypoint.com/hc/en-us

[candid sage]

thanks

[agile rapids]

been 2 hours after claim and connecting account still no skins

[candid sage]

so the rumor is if you connect on waypoint

and it says

....

then claimed

it wont work

even tho it said you were connected

so you have to make a new twitch account and make sure it shows the twitch name and not .....

then rewatch for two hours

but thats just ridiculous

[deft sage]

Twitch wont even let me connect in the first place. i really wish I could find out the link to where I could connect them directly like on the warframe website

[hidden island]

Hello! kind of a new player, how does battle pass armor unlocks work? do you receive them when seasonis over? or why can´t I equip what I unlock?

[deft sage]

If you buy the delux pass for ten bucks, you've purchased a non time limited level up system. you can gain experience by playing multiplayer and completing challenges

Every time you level up, you get whatever was the reward for that level

[pallid apex]

Well u don't need to purchase the battlepass to unlock stuff but most of the cosmetics are behind the paid battle pass

[deft sage]

playing five games in a single day, regardless of type of game or win or lose, you should get enough exp to level up once

[hidden island]

I see, for some reason I cant equip the armor I unlock by leveling up

its like i dont have it

[deft sage]

He asked for armor unlocks in the battle pass. Im covering my bases here

[deft sage]

You probably need to unlock the paywall

[hidden island]

what is that?

[pallid apex]

Like I said some rewards are free and others to unlock them u need to pay for the battle pass

[deft sage]

So, they have the free battle pass that has minor things and for the base mark vii armor. Then there are other armors you needto have the "deluxe" (read, purchased) battle pass to get and equip

[pallid apex]

If u know u unlocked them all armor coatings and cosmetics only work with certain armors they are not universal

[hidden island]

I have deluxe battle pass

[deft sage]

tbf, buying the battlepass is by far the best bang for your buck as far as getting cosmetics in this game goes. Every week they have an armor set (a handfull of items) for twenty bucks or so. With the battle pass you get so much more

[hidden island]

but I can see my unlocks

neither equip them

cant*

when i go to equip armor i have nothing

[deft sage]

Hmm... have you tried changing your armor set in the armor hall?

[hidden island]

everything is locked

correct

[deft sage]

They might be for the mark v b armor

[hidden island]

I tried that by i have the same issue

but*

[deft sage]

...how far are you in the battlepass, if you dont mind me asking?

[hidden island]

level 9 right now

içve unlocked a color and a couple of pieces

[deft sage]

Yeah, all your stuff should be fore the mark vb....

[hidden island]

but i was only able to equip the color

and i have the Mark V but no pieces can be equipped either

[deft sage]

No shoulders or chest....

Yeah, that is wierd.

[floral pond]

The shoulders are for Mark V [B] The colour is Mark VII

The chest is also Mark V [B]

[deft sage]

Okay, im going to go step by step through the process, just to make sure I dont miss anything

You go into armor hall... You can see two sets of armor you can equip, yes? Not the samurai one

You have the mark V [B] equiped, yes? not the Mark VII

And you cant equip different armor peices on it?

[hidden island]

correct

I have tried both both there are no equipable pieces for any of them

everything is locked and i cant even see the ones i unlocked

[deft sage]

Now... the helmet shoul be fore the Mark VII. If you go to the helmet you have on the Mark V B, can you equip attatchments?

Im just trying to find out everything thats working and not. Its really all I can do since ive never heard of this problem before and im not able to do anything about it. Im just trying to go through the "lets see if this works" checklist they do in IT at companies

Which is just trying everything one at a time to see if anything works

[hidden island]

let me check

dont even know how to open the level rewards part

[deft sage]

Oh, main menu, top right corner

[hidden island]

Thank you, I have to run but i will re-install the game just in case since i dont have atachements either

really appreciate the help

[earnest storm]

you need the battlepass to use certain shop bundles

like the 2k set in the shop rn

effectively cost 3k

because battle pass is req

[earnest storm]

you need to apply your 25 lvl bonus

[pallid apex]

That's why I said most.

[spark geode]

@pallid apex I caved and got a infinite controller

[earnest storm]

A scalped one or an actual retail one?

[spark geode]

Scalped, I don’t think I’ll be able to beat the bots/scalpers ever

[pallid apex]

I offered a guy $230 but he said no.

He has it up for 250

[earnest storm]

He really want that extra 20

[torn birch]

I really want a halo CE helmet so bad

[pallid apex]

Ya I guess. Maybe since he's been trying to sell it he will have a second thought lol

[earnest storm]

keep in mind tax to purchase 199+tax

and they want some kind of profit

[pallid apex]

Ya I think it's $213 after tax

[earnest storm]

depends where you live

it can go as high as 10% in the U.S.

[pallid apex]

Ya I know, it 6% here

[spark geode]

I mean they are selling fast at 250-270

The markup isn’t anywhere near as bad as the Xbox’s and gpus

[pallid apex]

Ya I know, but u just hate to do it lol

[earnest storm]

its limited edition it isnt the same thing as buying a constantly produced product like the xbox series x

[pallid apex]

Ya I know, never said it was the same but u just hate to buy it off a scalper.

[spark geode]

Totally understand your perspective

to me it’s no different than the markup retailers put on things

They essentially buy it and sell it for insane markup

[earnest storm]

250 isnt insane

[spark geode]

For instance the razer gear if you bought it from Best Buy… i work for Best Buy and the markup put on those is about the same as the infinite controllers

[icy bane]

Yea. But they aren't neccesarily a service where as much as moochers

[spark geode]

You aren’t wrong

[pallid apex]

Ya I know, I used to work retail and would just scan items to see cost

Tbh would need to wait till next week. Have car bills to pay. Gives me a week to think about ut

[spark geode]

No pressure from me brother, you do you.

[pallid apex]

Ya I want it just to have it, probably use it but eh not I a hurry

[pallid apex]

I lied, guy got back to me for 230

[spark geode]

Whaaa, surprised as it def would of sold on eBay for 250

Nice mang

[pallid apex]

Well u gotta think if u sell it for 250 on ebay, ebay takes like 12% from u

[spark geode]

a direct sale?

[pallid apex]

I'm getting it locally

[spark geode]

ohhh

very nice!

[fast niche]

Just got the bulldog. it is kinda neat seeing how much detail they added to this cheap toy

[pallid apex]

Got it https://imgur.com/a/bXdkSJB

[spark geode]

Nicee

I’m using mine, much better than the regular controller

[dark tangle]

It's so nice, still getting used to the paddles

[pallid apex]

Even gave me part of the receipt with the order number and date for warranty purposes

I'm sure I don't need it if it fails will more be a Microsoft thing directly

[pallid apex]

Ya I like it, even got a nerf side flashlight for it

[fast niche]

although it did remind me that whoever was incharge of naming it did an oof

as why did they name it bulldog whenever its not a bullpup

[spark geode]

Same, also the sticks are different than the regular ones.. will take me a bit

[fast niche]

That reminds me. Are there any alternative paddles folks have tried and liked?

I find that the way my right hand grips differently than left makes hitting the back right paddle kinda wonky and I often will hit the front right immediately after. I've adjusted my bindings so this isn't the worst thing ever but still

[glossy lynx]

can you use that for xbox 1s?

[pallid apex]

Xbox 1, x, s and pc

It connects the same as a regular controller

[glossy lynx]

thanks

[pallid apex]

@spark geode they got back to me about the milk thing

[spark geode]

what'd they say

[pallid apex]

@spark geode imm dm u

[analog badge]

I need help with how I upgraded my gear on xbox series s I can't scroll past the grapple to upgrade anything I've been trying to figure it out and I just can't upgrade anything else

[glossy lynx]

why tf is it so expensive

[pallid apex]

It retails $199.99

The regular series 2 u can usually get for $159.99

I've heard they pretty good. But some quality control issues.

Some last for a long time and some last for under a year

[glossy lynx]

bruh

like the battery or the entire controller

[spark geode]

if this halo one dies ill just get a scuf gaming one

[pallid apex]

Joy stick drift is a big issue with them and the rb buttons stop working

[hallow crystal]

What’s a good keyboard for typing and gaming that doesn’t look like the child of a rainbow unicorn

[tardy sentinel]

My elite series 2 just started some trigger creaking again after months

[earnest storm]

basic 19.99 full keyboard with rgb lighting off of amazon

[hallow crystal]

Will have a look 👌

[pallid apex]

Ya I love the look of this controller just going to use it and try to get as far as I can

I can some of the issues myself

If I can get the parts. Have enough soldering stuff to get stuff done. Have done many video game fixes and mods

[unkempt drift]

So I got my replacement Elite 2 controller, and it works. But they sent it in a box big enough to fit at least one 17-inch laptop with full padding

Just for a bare controller, lol

[sterile kestrel]

my original elite has stick drift on the left stick 😦

[pallid apex]

Ya I hope mine lasts for a bit and I got a good batch

[spark geode]

Same, least I got my in game cosmetic

[fast niche]

if it makes ya feel any better my bulldog came in a box that legit looked like a small TV or a big picturte frame or semething

box is bigger than a typical desk size

[pallid apex]

My ar came in no box....

[fast niche]

i just find it funny amazon packed it like that

[pallid apex]

https://imgur.com/a/JeiBDbA

Had the label slapped on it and wrote on the back with marker

[earnest storm]

Nice pickups I pre ordered the jazwares master chief helmet I’m excited

[pallid apex]

Same

Like I said I really wish they did chief voice sound bites not like gun noises and stuff

Just voice catch phrases

[latent pike]

The perfect controller didnt exis...

[earnest storm]

Yeah the gun sounds are so off but I like the lights

[latent pike]

Man,i would sell my family for one of those controllers

I mean...

[earnest storm]

microsoft does that a lot

[unkempt drift]

Idk, the green and bronze is nice and screams “Halo,” but I think the black standard Elite 2 is sleeker

This time my replacement came with a new set of paddles, a d-pad, and sticks, so I’ve got extras now too

[spark geode]

unfortunately im a sucker for the in game item as well, but i agree with you

[pallid apex]

Same, I'm a sucker for halo and In-game stuff

[crisp vessel]

I’m just a sucker for anything halo related either official or fan made

I plan on buying like a 600 dollar airsoft halo AR because I’m a loser who digs buying airsoft halo gear

[pallid apex]

I just didn't go for the xbox since I upgraded my pc instead

[spark geode]

same here, built a new PC in the summer... not gunna get an xbox

[pallid apex]

Ya it would of just sat there in the box.

I had the series x and the ps5 and just used my pc

Just gunna keep my switch and my retro stuff around

[fast niche]

better than being the weirdo who makes actual arms designed like halo arms. note dont do that without the paperwork and talking to your lawyer. but its a fun time

[pallid apex]

@fast niche that sport helmet hasn't sold out yet

[fast niche]

makes sense. its a weird item

[pallid apex]

Yes it is

[spark geode]

no in game item no care

[pallid apex]

Lol

[fast niche]

sidenote ingame bulldog is making me happy

controller charm, milked emblem, and nerf skin go so well together. and let my enemies know im a wallet warrior with all the swag goodies

[pallid apex]

I still want my milk

[crisp vessel]

now I’m curious

[lusty fern]

Has anyone got the coating from Target yet? I submitted a receipt to the site 3 days ago and haven't heard anything

Nevermind, it went to my spam folder

[unkempt drift]

@crisp vessel can you link to the airsoft Halo AR? Or DM if links to that aren’t allowed, I suppose. That sounds really cool

[crisp vessel]

Yeah sure give me a bit and I can

[earnest storm]

Wish I could share my toy photography pics here

[next wadi]

YOU GET COATINGS FROM TARGET???

Man I hate not living in the us sometimes

But then I remember that it's the us

[lusty fern]

thanks!

[next herald]

LF rockstar codes if anyone has spares!

[spark geode]

The mega block toy with the armor coating is absurdly rare, why you do dis mega blocks

[earnest storm]

I bought a mega construx Warhog like almost a year ago, and I got a Warhog aCtion Blocks Coating in halo infinite.

It's epic.

[spark geode]

How did you find it in store

I check stores and they never have it

[earnest storm]

Oh, I got it for christmas.

I don't know.

[amber sedge]

some boxes have a label saying it has in game dlc, like a blue icon or something. those ones have a code for mega construx. I mostly see regular boxes without any codes included :/

[pallid apex]

Ya I check everytime I go into like a target or walmart

[lean wagon]

Best 20 USD ever spent.

[pallid apex]

[devout phoenix]

sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh and it got the accesories

[sterile kestrel]

15 minutes for the pose?

[cunning cape]

how to unlock pose?

[inner fossil]

theres coatings in target????????

[tardy sentinel]

Buying certain items at target can allow you to submit you receipt with the item purchased to get the coating. The items are all $20 or more

[inner fossil]

[rustic summit]

were the best country to live in

[silent trail]

ya got the HCS Launch weapon or armor skins?

i got them all, im fake watching for an hour to get the victory pose

[dark tangle]

@static vortex we don't allow buying / selling / trading here, sorry

[static vortex]

sry

[earnest storm]

Imagine a target armor coating with a literal target on your back

[split pumice]

Got to line up the shot some how

Would be better if it was on the head

[crisp vessel]

I love the 6.5 inch figures but the painting is very toy like at times but a simple wash fixes that up!

Alsoooo those figures have made a resurgence of custom kit parts so you can buy custom helmets or shoulders and what not to paint up and fully customize a figure to your liking (assuming you have a spare you’d love to donate to the cause of making your dream Spartan a figure)

Good 20 usd purchase either way though!

[lusty fern]

If anyone has a spare red shift code I'll trade you for my wall breacher code

[buoyant prairie]

Is there other guns?

[pallid apex]

Bulldog, AR and mangler

[buoyant prairie]

:( i was hoping for DMR from Reach...

[pallid apex]

Bulldog and ar give nerf dart and nerf skin and I think mangler is just charm

Or name plate idk

[buoyant prairie]

owo

[lusty fern]

AR isn't sold in stores anymore
