A few weeks ago I picked up my dream Xbox 360. Today I soldered in the proper lights.

I'm trying to play warzone assault for that sweet double xp, but nobody's reqs are working, not even boosts. Is this happening to you guys too?

I stopped sprinting and my KD went up

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 05:11 AM PDT

I don't have great reactions or the best aim but I have played so much Team Slayer that I generally have a good feel for what is going on.

I played too much and got a sore thumb from right click sprinting so I stopped sprinting altogether and this really played to my strengths and improved my game. I also felt much calmer playing and it was a good experience - try it!

Halo 5 raw stats file?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 06:16 PM PDT

Is there a place to pull down all of your game stats? Does MS make this raw data available anywhere?

Halo book 'The Flood," Marine in library backstory

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 08:54 PM PDT

Like the title says. During the reading of "The Flood," When MC is in the Library he stumbles upon a marine as he says super far into the complex. What I was wondering is if there was any backstory to this person or not. Has there been any info on who it was or was it really just a throwaway.

What should I expect at DreamHack Atlanta?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 03:20 PM PDT

So I've never been a big spectator when it comes to HCS. I'll usually watch the last few matches of finals and that's it (most of the time I don't really have a time to root for). I saw that HCS summer finals are coming up in Atlanta and I'm thinking that might be close enough for be to go. I'd likely only go for one day, so what should I expect? If I go, I'd like to experience something I can't if I'm just watching a live stream. And how should I decide which team to follow without jumping on a bandwagon and rooting for whoever is currently the best?

Anyone else miss Extermination?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 11:28 PM PDT

Extermination was awesome and I would love to see it as a permanent playlist. Something about the fast paced action, small maps and strategy made this playlist shine. Anyone else miss it?

Do you think a reverse firefight game mode in halo 6 similar to gears of war 3's beast mode would work?

Why is my starting grenade a Plasma just because I spawn on it?

Bandanna Skull Voids Time and Score HUD?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 09:43 PM PDT

When I have the Bandanna Skull on Halo: CE in the Master Chief Collection, the time and score HUD doesn't show. This is really annoying 'cause I'm trying to get the achievement: "Speed Reader" and this is making it real difficult. Is this a bug, or does my game just hate me? Thanks.

Ranked playlists disappearing

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 02:10 PM PDT

Among the insane amount of lag I've been experiencing recently, I've noticed sometimes ranked playlists disappear. I was in a ranked snipers game, then I get kicked from it and only Free for All and HCS Summer 2017 are even listed as options for ranked. Sometimes this also happens without me previously being in a ranked game. Anyone else?

Back in 2012 my friend tried to make a serious machinima on Halo: Reach. After realizing how cringy and stupid it was while doing voiceovers, he turned it into this instead: Rednecks with Banshees - [Warning: Some NSFW language]

Can Something Be Done to Address Quitting?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 03:26 PM PDT

After noticing a trend of quitting over my placement matches, I have since kept track of the number of quitters in my games this season. Obviously in Team Doubles (where I spend the majority of my time) it is lower, but I have noticed a huge issue in Team Snipers. I am not sure if this is due to my lower rank (Platinum 2) in Team Snipers or due to its new nature and people caring less. However, it is a significant issue.

In a sample size of 40 games:

20 games (50%) have had at least one player quit.

5 games (12.5%) have had two or more players quit.

1 game (2.5%) have had three or more players quit.

Losing one player completely changes the game dynamic and puts the 3-person team at a huge disadvantage, especially when these players tend to quit after already going significantly negative. This is compounded when a team is left in a 2v4 or worse situation.

I understand that 343 has reduced the penalties for leaving a game after you lose a teammate, but knowing I am leaving a 4v3 game to then make it a 4v2 for my teammates just doesn't seem fair to them. It seems like just opening up the floodgates once that first player quits since the loss and the quit are weighed equally.

There needs to be stricter punishments for quitters (with the exception of network issues) and rewards for players sticking through a 4v3 or 4v3 situation (especially if they are winning). Without this, players will be discouraged from going into games without a full team if there is a 50% chance their teammates will quit.

Edit: Since posting this I have played 3 more games.

2 games no one quit

1 game the entire other team quit
