In honor of winter, here is my latest map, Summit. I always loved playing the snowy environments in Halo, and wanted to incorporate that theme since the holidays are upon us! Supports 4v4 Slayer, CTF, and FFA. Link is in the comments :)

Any news on MCC fixes? I couldn't play matchmaking because I had a guest

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 06:53 PM PST

My roommate and I wanted to play MCC Big Team Battle with my brother. I can normally play with my brother just fine over Xbox Live. However, when we recently tried playing with my roommate as a guest and join my brother over Xbox live, we kept running into a bug that prevented us from finding games.

We joined up and started matchmaking. After "finding players" for about 10 or 15 seconds, the game just bounced us back to the playlist selection screen. This bug persisted even when we both shut down Halo, shut down the Xbox, reconnected the controllers, and many other things.

Has anyone run into this bug and know how to workaround it? I remember being able to play with my roommate and brother before without a problem. I'm not sure if this was just a random server problem that probably fixed itself by now or something new that we have to deal with. If anyone knows any workarounds, I would be very grateful!

343's level of incompetence with the Halo series is outstanding. It's nice to hear that they're finally going to pay some attention to this game, but haven't heard any high-level plans yet.

Using cheats on Reach?

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 08:15 PM PST

Just played a game of grifball and one of the guys on the other team was legit floating around and moving across the map faster than I could spawn. Was seriously pissing me off. Anyone know how they did this?

Why hasn't there been an official release of the song "I know you" by The White Buffalo yet?

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 09:21 AM PST

I'm sure i'm far from the first person to have asked this question, but whats the deal? Are there some legal issues behind the scenes that prevent it from being released? Not giving this song an official release is a crime against humanity!!!

Have a look at Halo 2 Project Cartographer! It's.. beautiful.

I hear alot of people complaining that halo is going from sci-fi to more fantasy science fiction but lore wise at least, it makes sense.

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 10:41 AM PST

The Marines the gear the weapons we see in halo 1 is all pre-covenent gear for the most part. It was meant to fight other humans. The gear, armour and weapons we see now is the evolution of years of fighting the covenant and learning from the elites. Asides from the Mac cannons most other weaponry was useless in comparison. It only makes sense that the UNSC would evolve to be more like the far superior covenant/foreunner tech.

Matches won’t start, keep trying stuck at load screen?

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 11:06 PM PST

Whenever someone quits, which seems to happen every single game, the match doesn't start and it just shows all of us waiting and we can't back out so we have to close the app. Is this a new bug? We just started playing after a year.

Playing Halo Co Op in 2017

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 10:41 PM PST

So, discussing with a friend about playing the Halo games again after we played some Halo 3 Split Screen today and was quickly wondering what the most "optimal" way to play the games are?

We have access to Xbox One's (I have a One X, they have an S if it matters)

How is MCC now for co-op? I'd prefer to do the campaigns over Xbox Live if possible, I know for 1 and 2 that's not an option since those games didn't support online coop outside MCC, but for 3/ODST/4 is MCC the best approach or the originals?

How did you find out about Halo ?

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 06:21 PM PST

My first experience with halo was actually with halo mega blocks. I loved those things so much that I eventually found halo 3 100 ways to die videos on YouTube. Once I started watching those videos I fell in love with the halo series. Btw this was right before ODST dropped .

have Sword clashes changed since halo 3/reach?

Posted: 18 Dec 2017 09:54 PM PST

I've been playing a lot of castle wars this week and have obviously been in a lot of 1v1 swordfights and I've noticed that If I keep clashing with an enemy player we will both be killed on swipe 3 or 4.

Correct me if I'm wrong but in Halo 3/reach (im not sure which had sword-only rumble pit and team slayer in matchmaking) you could clash endlessley until someone slipped up.

Another thing was using the Melee button resulted in a faster swing and a shorter time until you could swing again but had no lunge.

Now the melee button has the same delay between swipes and no lunge.

Has anyone else noticed these changes?

Seems like they lowered the skillfulness of swordfights.
