Why does 120fps look blurry as hell …it wasn’t this bad in the tech test looked really sharp ?
One negative I had from playing, strongholds just isn’t a good game type and especially on these maps.
As for the whole BP thing, just goes to show how much gaming has changed that we are conditioned to need constant rewards…and mostly cosmetic rewards at that. Gone are the days of Halo 2, 3 etc where you were playing to win games and increase your rank alone. The ranking system is still there.
They chose to introduce a Battle Pass so they need to fix this and I am guessing they will but for now just play the game and enjoy it. Everything else about the launch seems to have been pretty smooth and it will probably take a while for them to get BP progression right.

If Im paying $10 for a Battle Pass and Im not getting leveled up appropriately I will complain I dont care if it lasts till May.
Progression in Online games has been a thing since forever and this one is simply bad and it doesnt kill anybody to simply say it. Its bad.

They either need a slayer playlist or they need the ability to filter out game modes of playlists. Playing with my brother and cousin and they are pist off that there’s no slayer mode. They don’t want to play anything else. I myself don’t mind oddball and ctf but I hate strongholds. Need a playlist filter.
Idk why there’s only ranked, unranked, and btb. No halo game has ever launched with this few of modes.
IMO these are the biggest things that need to get fixed, hopefully some by launch date.
- progression
- game modes
- profile stat tracking
- map count(6ranked maps and 3 btb maps)
So like I said before the fact that there biggest issues arnt gameplay related is great. I expect all those issues to be resolved in time. Map count will take the longest I think, unless they got maps just waiting.

We know that co-op and Forge are coming in 3 and 6 months (if everything goes well) but did they say anything about Custom Browser ?
I was expecting it to be here at launch, didn’t know it would come later.
That goalpost got moved. They said co-op is coming in season 2 and forge probably season 3. Well season 2 isn’t till may now. So season 3 with forge won’t be till at least august. Real shame to forge would huge to have when there’s few maps.

Battle passes haven’t. Online game progression is still there.
Co-op got delayed 6 months just yesterday with the reveal that Season 1 is till May and Forge is gonna be a late 2022 thing at this rate. What was the plan last year?? Good lord.
Just goes to show how this game despite playing and looking great is barely getting past the finish line lol.

Hopefully they fix it asap. The multiplayer already feels barebones as it is, not making new players feel like they’re getting rewarded for their play is a big no no.
I know some people in here don’t care for the BP system at all but it’s super crucial to keep an audience, especially if you don’t offer any form of battle royale.
Few questions…
-
Is there no way so that when a match ends the next one automatically starts? Like how in other shooters the next map just automatically starts?
-
I try to aim for the head with each enemy encounter, but does this even matter? Or will any body part take same damage?
-
Sometimes I just only want to play Slayer for example, so no objective based modes included. Seems we can’t do this?
Yeah, you can choose to play slayer on specific maps ( unranked anyway ) but they need to sort this. Oddball is great when I am in the humour but sometimes you just want to play slayer 
-
Not that I know of.
-
You can aim for any part of the body but once the shield breaks, go for the head immediately.
-
No we can’t unfortunately.

I think they put out a tweet yesterday that there will be something after Christmas about co-op/forge. (I don’t think they will move, as forge team, and campaign team are different to mp team)
- I havent figured this out either
- What @Vivir said
- You can choose to play slayer on specific maps but just not jump on a slayer hopper. These all existed in the past so I would imagine they will introduce them again. They should be better at communicating this.
Strange isn’t it? Automatically going to next map is pretty standard nowadays. I believe 5 had this too, even 4?

It’s weird that my experience with leveling hasn’t been as bad as some of you guys. I think I hit level 1 after 4 matches.

Hot take : Warzone was a great mode and should have been refined and improved (while scrapping Warzone Assault) in addition of the return of classic BTB as we got, even if it meant only 1 or 2 Warzone maps at launch.
PvPvE should be part of Halo, great customization of weapons / vehicles, and I loved the randomness of opening REQ packs.

Oh I only play ranked. Playing social when I go 20+ kills against trash people isn’t fun.
Listen man we are lucky this game is launching this year right now lol

I both agree that the progression system needs some work and am also already sick of hearing about it
