The lag and crashing is why I'm just chilling in BTB for a while until some stuff gets addressed. I have everything on low too and it still tanks bad on some maps.
The lag stuff was hitting us kind of hard. Grenades and melees didn’t seem to do shit for a minute.
Played on the PC today and set min FPS to 120 and max at 240. Felt good. GPU was at upper utilization. Good stuff.

I know not to blame the beasts, when I'm performing bad, but maaaaaaannnnnnn not hearing footsteps was tilting me. lmao. Reminds me of that time in Apex where folks weren't making noise.

Reminds me of that time in Apex where folks weren't making noise.The A/V man... I gotta go in and make my team vs oppo more obvious. I've had way more sticks on our team's vehicles and melees on friendlies than I care to admit.

Halo's A/V feedback is simply not as good as its competitors anymore. I'm not saying its bad, but its plainly not as good. You can't expect the same indicators you're accustomed to being consistent in this. An enemy will let off shots and you'll think they're waaay further away than they actually are. A grenade will land and you'll think its a few meters ahead and not at your ankles. An enemy silhouette will be slightly more unclear than it should be considering its supposed to be highlighted against the background.
The best advice I can offer really is to go into setting and change the designators around a bit. A yellow for enemies is far better than the default red for me for example.
When it comes to audio just assume everything is far closer than it presents itself as well.
Only game where I get snuck up on like I do.
My team mates every game man. Got a 20kda in oddball trying to get and keep the ball but like it ain't enuff.

Do you guys talk in game? My experience generally goes good when playing with randoms as I’ll be the first to say “let’s do this” and then we do it
Except for strongholds. No one has or uses their mic in this mode and they don’t seem to listen either.

I haven't heard a single random speak, to the point where i think i might have it disabled somehow. I certainly don't speak either.
My best games team mates never spoke. They just actually manage to get weapons on the map, use geometry, recover shields and in BTB give each other rides in warthogs to flags/seeds and back to base.
I don't really talk much, but I make good use of the callouts. I really think that if more players made better use of the system, you'd be able to get by okay with randoms. The most efficient matches I've had didn't really have people talking, but they were making good call outs.
Does the game tutorialize this at all? I didn't actually complete the tutorial, though I did know it from playing the beta.

Ive no idea. Tutorials are for bads, real gamers jump straight into ranked and ruin the experience for the rest.
By Kibner Go To PostAre there any rewards for doing well in the weapon drills?There's a couple achievements tied to them, but that's it. Seems a bit silly to not even give a token skin for them.
The progression and skins here are so lacking, especially compared to all the work they did with the MCC battle passes. I don't get it.
I mostly just want more color options, tbh.
I am trying to make my guy reminiscent of this lovely fellow, but just don't have the color customization available to do so:

By Kibner Go To PostI mostly just want more color options, tbh.Same, and I truly don't like that the coatings that you unlock don't apply to all the armors. That's insanity. I want to use the the Mark V and the new red and blue coating I got together, thanks.
By Smokey Go To PostThe best team here on paper is Navi, and they're in the losers bracket already.
NA bracket continues today at 2 ET, btw. This is when you'll see the big boys like Sentinels (Frosty, Snakebite, Lethul, Royal2), EUnited (Ryanoob, Rayne, Spartan) and Cloud9 (Stellur, Eco, Renegade) playing.
Halo esports are really good.
Been playing the game while wearing my Grado Hemps, and they have actually done a fantastic job at sound placement. The complains above about things sounding farther away than they really are hold true, but the location around me have been spot on. First time playing a game that I cared about that since I got these headphones. lol
e: a picture of them because they look so damn cool:

By Lupercal Go To PostI don't get how I can die by melee but I shot the other guy down aswell.Client side hit detection.
e: basically, each of you got the last hit on the other on your machine. the server takes that information and says you both win, so you both die. it happens due to latency differences.
Some aspects of the campaign are leaking and it's interesting. (Spoilers.)
It serves as a direct sequel to H5, but it genuinely seems like they do not address Cortana and the Guardians in the story. That H5 ending is basically whisked away by Chief being in a two year sleep.

By Kibner Go To PostClient side hit detection.Ahh, I see. It's about the level as Valorant sometimes. Getting shot when I jumped behind a corner a lot.

But sometimes the connection is perfect and it maybe happens once a game.
Is there some sort of region locking yet ?
Noticed damage can be on quite the delay and or a bunch of it hits at once so it's easy to be caught off guard about just how damaged you actually are. Best to assume you're actually more hurt than the game is telling you right at that moment.
By Smokey Go To Post
Watching this just felt like a worse version of H2 and H3 esports. Just frozen in time. Had more respect for H5 tbh.
By Kibner Go To PostClient side hit detection.Also, different weapons have different melee speeds.

Anyday for that playlist split out
Gotta say…hitting that perfect 4 shot BR or pistol kill and hearing the announcer say “perffeccct” is

My challenges right now are a big nope. Already swapped too damn. Quick tip: Bot bootcamp gives the game XP too. Wanted to just get 150 before bed so I did 3 matches of stomping out bots quick. Far as time to load and time to play that's actually the secret to jamming out XP and leveling up the pass, especially if your challenges are like mine atm. This pass is still so ass.

I’ve noticed some of the CTF BTB matches can go on a for a lifetime - especially on fragmentation(?).
Close to 36 on the Battle Pass - hard to imagine me ever wanting to level another one though.

lmao had the same happen. someone took hixx down with him.... and then the enemy also followed. sensational
Enjoying this a lot more in BTB on mouse and keyboard. Using a pad felt fine enough, but movement and aiming just feels a lot smoother for me now.
BTB map size and player count seems ideal for some absolutely fuckery too

By HonestVapes Go To PostBTB map size and player count seems ideal for some absolutely fuckery tooYeah it’s my go to.
I enjoy the squad based antics you can get up to and the scale of it. However, it seems to be the worst from an xp perspective :lol - matches take ages.
First game on too big of map and opposition was just whoring long range. Tired of my shots feeling like RNG tbh. Behemoth is just too big for 4v4 imo.
yeah fiesta sucks just as much as in other games
i constantly spawn with these shitty weapons and close range weapons while everyone else gets rockets and BRs and snipers
wtf am i supposed to do with a disruptor

By i can get you a toe Go To PostIt's best played with and against friends. Do they let 8 stacks go in there?You can do it custom I think but no challenges then.
