Spent over an hour the first night trying to get into games with a couple guys from Jsp, we didn't get a single game. MM times were still long but we managed to play a few games together last night. I like the feel of the game for the most part, a couple balance issues need to be taken into consideration but it could be decent if they fix MM. We'll see, still not much hope for that to actually happen, I won't pre-order or buy at release, going to give it at least a few months for user reviews.


I was getting into games back to back. Game seemed to run smooth n mm times weren't long at all.

Playing solo or with a party? Game times were fairly quick when I played solo, it just took forever in a party. It also kept kicking me out to game chat constantly, that was fucking weird. In game has been mostly smooth, I had one weird suicide death where I'm still not sure wtf happened and the video didn't help either. I think I've only played two laggy games out of about 20, so that's nice at least. AR/SMG need a slight nerf, nothing insane but I should be able to outshoot people with a br from Midrange when they have an AR, even if they get first shot. Remove the bonus for ADS (that shit's stupid), take out flinch (already confirmed) and then some cosmetic stuff. Killcams are garbage and need to be removed or fixed, seeing the last shot or grenade already on the ground doesn't tell me much. Not being able to back out of stalled lobbies without reloading the app needs to be fixed asap, kicking people from your party also needs to be fixed. Couple very fixable issues, we'll see what 343 does with that.

Yeah, I never understood the killcams except to copy CoD too late, honestly.

I always liked Halo 2/3/Reach's death cam where you just keep viewing your corpse unless you swap to an active teammate. I hope there is an option to turn it off in this game.

That's how I like it as well. Sure, I want to know from time to time how I die but I can always go watch the video if I'm really that concerned over it. The killcam is probably the most annoying in game aspect. I really like the feel for the most part, sprint seems a bit glitchy from time to time but that's whatever, maybe I'm just not always using it properly. It's definitely weird playing Halo again, I'm still not anywhere near good but I'm getting it back slowly.

I agree on pretty much everything. Mostly the ar/br nonsense. I was solo queuing btw so I guess that makes more sense. Also the kill cams are lols.

The AR is fucking absurd if you ADS lol. I can kill people in a matter of seconds from mid range with the fucking thing. Solo que has worked amazingly well for me, I just keep getting shitty as fuck teammates which leads to rage. I hate when I'm playing a full team that actually moves/shoots together and I've got 1 or 2 kids just running around like chickens with their heads cut off, had a kid go 0-19 in a game last night. You play very often? I don't know how much I'll be on but I'm always down to play with other people who at least communicate.
