Halo: General Discussion

The irony from the achievement :D

Special Shark Tank Event: Race to the Bottom

How far can you get in The Order: 1886 (PS4, Day 1 of availability) before Halo: Master Chief Collection (Xbox One, Day 101 of availability), from disc, is installed, patched*, and connects successfully to a single, balanced multiplayer game?

Whoever wins, both consoles lose.

I think the funniest part of the entire MCC debacle was 343 removing Halo 4 from the playlists. Surely everything will be okay once both of the people who wanted to play Halo 4 online are funneled into the general population.

Don't hold your breath on there being an update today.

Anyone know the exact date of the next update?

343i be like sorry guys it got delayed again will be coming this year #kappa

Bravo responded to a tweet saying that ranks will not be in this patch coming up. I'm actually kind of leaning towards them never fixing the game just so halo 5 can get it's premiere spot. (which it would anyways)

H2C is honestly a pointless game until they fix the hit registration issues. I've put entire clips into people and they wont even take damage. Medium - Long range battles are futile, leaving only short range battles to get kills from unless you're host. Host advantage is ridiculously absurd. Going to be playing H2A until they fix this I honestly can't take it anymore lol. I hope the update actually does something to fix this.

This week, we’ve got the latest on MCC content and playlist updates as well as some extra Halo 5: Guardians Beta stats and notable accomplishments. Let’s get into it.

HALO: THE MASTER CHIEF COLLECTION CONTENT UPDATES

We’re pleased to announce that our upcoming content update, which will improve stability, matchmaking, the party and invite system, and more, is now complete and has been submitted to the certification process. Within the next few days, we’ll provide details on timing and content.

HALO: THE MASTER CHIEF COLLECTION PLAYLIST UPDATES

The next featured MCC playlist in the rotation is Team Ball – a collection of Team Oddball and Ricochet variants from across the titles. Both SWAT and Snipers have proved to be quite popular, and you can rest assured knowing that they’ll both return to the rotation, and possibly as permanent additions to the lineup if they remain in high demand. The same applies to Team Doubles, Team Objective, and more featured playlists that are in the works.

Patch is done, awaiting certification by Microsoft. More info...eventually.

Gotta love the pr speak, "...which will improve..." never fix, amend, etc.

TL;DR: "Good news, everyone. We have no good news!! But we delayed this edge of your seat bulletin until the last possible minute anyway!! Fuck off!!!"

Do they they really think the community gives a fuck about their playlist rotations? Whoever conceptualized that rocket science idea needs to be taken out behind the shed. I literally do not understand how a company that tries to copy Bungie, fails so god damn hard at every attempt.
