Note: This thread is more to discuss bugs and issues than it is to complain about them.
Major bugs noticed:
-
Occasionally, the “Mute all” and “Mute player” buttons won’t work in Multiplayer. Pressing “Mute All” will either do absolutely nothing, or will toggle to “Unmute all” without actually muting anyone in the first place, with a similar effect happening to ‘Mute Player’. If you’ve ever played any online multiplayer, you’ll know why this is a major issue. A small amount of research tells me there’s no known cause, especially because this bug seems to be relatively common, but you can fix it by restarting the game. - Occasionally, after finishing an online match, the game will fail to load the Carnage Report reading “We encountered a problem and couldnt retrieve your session data at this time”. This can be especially concerning when you go back to the main menu only to find a lack of any change in your experience or REQ Points. Fret not, however, as this error is purely aesthetic and your information will update over a small period of time. Minor bugs noticed:
-
Upon switching Xbox One profiles, your level will display almost-permanently as SR1. Initiating a matchmaking search or restarting the game fixes this. - Sometimes, Your (or other players’) Spartan(s) will display as near-pitch-black silhouettes while in menus, especially while searching for or creating matchmaking games. - Rarely (and somewhat debatably) it seems like the player can be spawned near/on the ledge of certain maps, causing them to fall if they do not immediately move forward. This could be effected by unknown things however, and may not be caused by the game itsself. - In certain menus, you will be incapable of rotating your Spartan. This seems to happen when you tab over from the Spartan ID tab (in which the Spartan is stationary) to the Spartan Customization tab (In which you’re supposed to be able to rotate your figure to aid in customization.) This can be fixed by exiting to the main menu. - Sometimes you will be unable to exit the Matchmaking menu, even while it is still searching for other players. It will show a prompt allowing you to leave, and then will ask you to confirm (notifying you that it will remove you from the matchmaking queue), but hitting “confirm” will do nothing, thus shanghai’ing you into a multiplayer match in which you will be penalized for leaving. The only solution seems to be manually turning off your Xbox or quitting the game before it loads a server for you. - Not so much a bug as it is a questionable decision, but Spartans cannot sit in the back of Scout Warthogs. Pls 343, pls fix.
Have any other bugs you can share, even some problems that seem to be individual to you? Please share!
