Yeah I was able to see it, but theater mode kinda sucks. I ended up blowing up his vehicle and then a little behind him was his teammate so it sent the ghost flying at him. Poor guy was walking up the hill and never saw it coming.
That's pretty funny though. If you have capture software just queue it up with it and you can have a .mp4.
Getting 3-4 kills when you’re outnumbered feels more rewarding in this than Siege. Think this will become my new main FPS game going forwards.
Purely my only complaint is challenges tied to particular game modes. I like the variety on the playlists, but waiting endlessly for stronghold and total control to win three games in each and get my challenges done is a ball ache.

Weekly completed. Had a lucky ass stretch of BTB where I wasn’t even trying but still won every game. Opposing teams just didn’t believe in playing objective. I won a total control in like 5 minutes
Yeah BTB is really lopsided at times. I've had either perfect teammates who execute the perfect strat to steamroll in 5-6 mins or I have a bunch of chickens clucking around in base.
Don’t think I’m getting the weekly challenge reward with 3 hours left and zero wins in total control BTB. 343 pls fix
By Andrew Go To Post-needs one victory for weekly ultimate
-proceeds to lose every game
I did this.... and i fucking popped the double xp bonus and then just lost for an hour, with people going afk and shit.
Is the win PvP only or can you just botgame it ?
I know it used to work in the beginning but they started adding PvP to all the challenges, the cunts.

Big Team tips:
- Get and secure shock rifle (if its not on your side fuck, that's the weak side) so you can disable vehicles, especially wasps/tanks. Swear if I don't get that thing it just gets wasted and 2 wasps show up to screw my team. (There is one kind of in the middle too on Highpower by A, I've run to it before just to shoot at Wasps that were wrecking my team.)
- Get and secure a BR. There is usually at least one in the base and then more spawns in other areas depending on game type. I swear under my breath if the game has commandos instead though ngl. Also helps as a secondary to finishing people off if you have a sniping weapon.
- Tag vehicles or weapons for your team mates that have spawned. If a wasp pops but I don't want to use it I make sure I let the team know it exists so some jerk doesn't run in our base and steal it. Also lots of people just don't even pay attention to weapon spawns or ordinances so it helps.
- Turtling your flag. Honestly I've won games for the team just sitting back on fragmentation up above our flag making sure it doesn't leave. There are BR spawns by it you can get/refresh your ammo as well as spikes and dynamo nades around which you should pick up to fuck up warthogs and mongooses.
- Be sure to find and keep plasmas, dynamos, and or spike grenades in order to sticky/disable vehicles because it's BTB and they will be around a lot. I've got many double/triple kills just waiting for a warthog to drive up and plasma or spike stuck it.
- As with any other use geography and keep your head down. Don't bother with death tunnels and caves if you can, flank.
- On Highpower don't let their team set up shop with a sniper/br or two up on the middle cliff. Take them out whenever possible.
- When it comes to the seeds you can throw them rather than just carry them the whole way. It's beneficial to just do this especially when you come on the pile. Toss them closer to your side, shoot a bit, toss some more. Teams working together like it's a bucket brigade do way better. Also one of the warthogs (doesn't have a turret) can stash 2, drive that sucker up if you see it.

Never really got into halo BTB, as much as I’ve played MP in the series.
Their explanation about no FFA or TS at launch is lul. “Splinter the population”. Yeah aight. End up having people like me just wait it out I’m over CTF and oddball smh.
Supposedly they are coming before end of the year but still. A Halo MP with no dedicated Slayer modes is

I thought some timed event playlists were coming.
Slayer had to be evaluated first and they'll decide in May with the first big content update (forge & coop)

they had like 1 million users online at launch. splinter the population lol.
at least on steam it has been shrinking quite a bit every week, probably because you force people to play objective on the same few maps.

I have a newfound hatred for One Flag.
Strongholds is pretty good with a decent team, got 25 captures, a new best.

One flag on a better map seems pretty interesting to me from a purely competitive point of view. The map it’s on is absolute shite tho

By Lupercal Go To PostI thought some timed event playlists were coming.They say that team slayer always makes objective play die, but I don't recall this ever being a problem back in the H2/H3/Reach days when those games had dedicated objective playlists. They weren't as populated as slayer, but it's not like nobody played those modes.

It's just garbage. They had team slayer in the beta.

People don’t like objective, so forcing them to play is just gonna make them stop playing.

I hate slayer and never had any problems finding objective mode matches in previous Halo games
By Old King Rob Go To PostYeah it doesn’t make much sense. People don’t like objective, so forcing them to play is just gonna make them stop playing.And with the player base as high as it is, they can absolutely support it. The game is free to play, Halo is a huge franchise, etc.

They're just being stubborn about this, same as they are about countless other things. They really want to funnel people into a smaller number of playlist hoppers for whatever reason. They had this playlist in the beta, but they can't implement it fully until maybe January? Yeah, okay.
I love playing this game still. But I still complain about it. It is my curse.
By HonestVapes Go To PostI just wanna play 24/7 strong hold and total control tbh. CTF and Oddball have their moments thoOddball legit might be the worst online experience with randoms if they don’t play for the objective
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostJudging by reviews, 343 deliveredStill kinda weary about it but hopefully
By rodeoclown Go To PostAnd with the player base as high as it is, they can absolutely support it. The game is free to play, Halo is a huge franchise, etc.343 really haven't helped themselves with the battlepass being stingy, the xp being the same whether you win, lose or afk, nor the challenges being "play/win a CTF" and then there's no playlist to go do that instead you gotta hope it comes on rotation or just quit till you get it. And none of this really touches on some of the in game audio/visual issues or gameplay problems.

By Tony Hank's Pro Skater Go To PostOddball legit might be the worst online experience with randoms if they don’t play for the objectiveEverything is frustrating when randos don’t play the objective tbh. It’s why I stay tf out of ranked in this game unless I’ve got someone to play with. Gotta at least get the buddy system going to trade out kills and shit.
Yeah but oddball is especially awful. CTF is easier, randoms, even inept ones, usually try to do something. Oddball is just misery.
Dude CTF is the worst, without a doubt.
In BTB it’s almost impossible to solo the objective so it just dissolves into slayer until the time runs out. It’s pure stalemate.
Oddball is great… but I don’t want to play nonstop consecutive games of it. Only occasionally, sometimes.

Yeah ctf is easily my worst experience with randoms. But oddball can be terrible too. That just goes for randoms in vidya
Halo CTF is legit the only CTF I enjoy. It's on the best maps for it imo. It's even fun on Behemoth. Not a fan of Strongholds with randoms but not a fan of it in general either.
By SavageGordonLung Go To PostI don't even know what that isThe BTB one with power seeds you gotta bring back to your base. Gotta get 15 in total. Until you get 5 and it loads the other team can come and take them out. It makes for really dumb games on Fragmentation especially since the other team can toss them into the airlift.
Oh right. I think i only had that once,and we steam rolled the other team so badly i barely got to do anything
Yeah my games in that one especially is my team is either awesome and just winning ASAP or unable to progress at all. Close ones are super duper rare.
Did one weekly ultimate and never again unless they overhaul the system.
Not being able to preload the campaign until it releases in the UK tomorrow @ 6pm is utter shite.
