Halo |OT2| Master Chief for Smash
- Thread starter FUNKNOWN iXi
- Start date
The Halo 3 projectiles were a lottery but that doesn't mean all projectile systems are.
God no, never again, I'd like one match of swat to not be this noise over and over again

Wrooooooong. That would be the eternal flame. :)
Kids nowadays can just get it. Back in my day we had to do a thing with the Bungie app on our phones to get it lmao
Is there a new ARG starting up or something? I randomly watched one of the ONI Archive lore drop videos on the Halo channel, one that just went up a day ago, and it had some recorded conversation tacked on at the end that felt very ARG-y.
If you add armor effects like Grunt Birthday Party, then please have a client side toggle for it. I feel like this is how they should have treated the victory poses/animations in Halo 5, as well, instead of removing them completely. Seems like an easy way to please both parties, but I have no clue about how easy or difficult it actually is.
Having a toggle for assassinations was neat.

I don't think it's started yet. Saw a video where somebody did their level best to reduce the noise on the other side of the convo at the end and it was pretty much still totally muddled. Figure if they're doing one it'll probably kick into gear in June. Pure guess on my part tho.
i love what you just said. :)
can we expect mister chief to return for any videos like he did in 5?
If Microsoft meets my financial demands for Mister Chief then I will consider it, but until that time he's locked away in the vault of utmost quality.
Alternatively, I would consider creating a whole Mister Chief concept album for Martin Shkreli or the guy who bought the shredded Bansky.
Anybody here in Canada use Telus as their ISP? What's your online experience like with MCC PC? It's been a huge crapshoot for me, some matches I get are perfectly fine, others are horrendous and boot me out mid game for connection issues (or before the match starts in the case of Reach). H2C it'll often load me into matches with horrendous lag before booting me out. I submitted a support ticket about my connection issues and they basically told me that my Nat type needs to be open, but Telus won't let you adjust your Nat type and won't give you a public IP.
Glad they fixed map lighting, looking forward to seeing if it's improved.
I had to do a HDD format of two PCs and while doing the backup of important files I found this it's from the old days of HaloGAF good times indeed
343i really can't afford to mess up the Halo 3 launch on PC. Hope they iron everything out before release, maybe have multiple or extended flights. If there's a real hit registration problem that needs to be addressed, although if it's a result of 60 FPS there may be nothing they can do about it.
I think they need to change how they do their flighting. The bugs that impacted H2C and H3 for the last week surfaced after the last flight. (To say nothing of the major problems that H3 has had with performance on Xbox that they introduced in the March update.) They should have flighted the build that they were considering for release, too.
I don't think they're gonna fix the H3 hit registration, though. Blood shots have been a known issue for years and they haven't done anything to address it. The last update they provided was a year and a half ago, when they said it's a client side issue.
How long did it take for people on your team to quit out?Solos vs eight man sweat group, lol.
No one quit, surprisingly. It was over pretty fast like 100-40.
i played a ctf match last night where the entire other team literally sat in their base, camping their flag. and since 1-2 players were consistently camping our own flag it made for a torturous experience going (at best!) 2 v 4 on the offense. thankfully (?) my internet shit the bed half way through the match. unfortunately we were still, somehow, poised to win 1-0.
lmao it doesn't take that long. Steam has me at 118 hours, I could have got there faster if I played more double xp and I also just idled in the menus a lot of the times.
AR is a power weapon in H2AFirst time playing a map called Stigma and it has an AR where you'd think a power weapon would spawn.
this is amazing, I have never seen a visual representation of this, my night is made
So as a note, after fighting with Halo2 co-op's refusal to stay connected on some levels on PC for a while, I've found what seems to be the core issue and a work around for now (already reported to support, let's see what happens).
If you find yourself getting consistently disconnected (game will appear to stall first) after particular cutscenes (notably Outskirts, seems others also have the problem, not sure on a pattern yet), play with the original graphics, don't even swap in level.
Seems both players have to, something about the remastered graphics does something very weird to co-op's ability to stay connected. Which even with all my experience with these sorts of multiplayer systems I couldn't even give a guess as to why.
Maybe it's desyncing then aborting? Not sure why they don't say that if so. Though then that would also raise further questions. Oh well, hopes this helps someone else.
Edit: You know the more I think about this, the more I'm inclined to believe it is somehow an unmarked desync due to the new renderer altering the playsim somehow. If their interpolator was messing with projectiles in competitive, maybe something like that could be going on here. Though why only the Saber renderer and why only specific levels/cutscenes... That sure would be a weird thing to slip by.

I think you're a little behind. The latest update was only 2GB for me. (Xbox)
I did it, I won Halo.
Is it still Season 1? Weren't supposed to have a new season for each game being release?
Not complaining, I'm still like level 20 on the current season, but I'm curious.
I haven't played the game in a few weeks but still, 25GB is ridiculous. They're not exactly adding any extra content to the game.
Do you all have to pay for internet by the deciliter like in Australia?
They have always been iffy on seasons and they never gave a timeline. I don't see how they could do a season with each game being released. There isn't enough content. It worked with Reach because it had a ridiculous amount of customization. Unless they just make a ton of new nameplates and emblems there isn't much they could add.
