I play on Xbox One S, Shanghai China. When I play matches against AI the game stutter for 3 or 5 seconds and then continue. Why? Why if I am not playing online this happen? What makes the game stop for few seconds? Never experience this in my life with any other game.
Is this happening all the time for you? Or is it a low frequency occurrence?
To answer your question about why the game stops, but you are not online. My best guess is that its when the game logic gets stuck trying to resolve one of the tasks its working on. This could be with the physics engine, where two objects are reporting they are existing in the same space, or something like that. If this is happening more that infrequently, then this is concerning and this could be related to the online issue that some others are reporting.
I was in a Skirmish match, 3 AI versus me. All of them in normal mode… I was playing as kinsano… It did happen twice in a 40 min match. First freeze about 6 seconds, second freeze about 2 seconds. Maybe, it could be the game connecting to the server on the background issue?
No, this is probably the physics interaction bug that we had a hard time tracking down. Have you seen it since? If you can find a consistent repro of it, I would love to hear the details.

Hello, I just had one more freeze. It was playing Strongholds. It lasted to 5 seconds. I was playing the Arbiter against and Easy AI… (I was making all the achievements)
I have to say I haven´t experienced any freezes since then… Let´s say that they appear rarely. Maybe 1 every 30 games. Not even 4% of the times. Playin against AI. Playing against players online it may create a disconnection I guess… But I have to say I never disconnect playing online, maybe just a couple in 1 or 2 months but that it really rare, like never.
I had other weird bugs too… Playing banished and stablishing rally point, the rally point will move in an axe direction with constant speed. Really weird.
The other one is that sometimes when I start playing and start building my buildings some models appear on the area where the building is gonna to get build. If it is a supply pad, supplies appear on the area where the building, and the supplies are just there clipping with the building 3d model. Just weird.
The last weird thing that happen to me was playing in Bedrock stronghold, my mini base on the middle of the map was around 5 m below 0 plan. Which made and akward cut in the buildings. I did screenshots of everything if need it.
That is all. Thanks! And keep it up guys!!! I can imagine this game is really hard to balance and solve all kind of situation. By the way, I only left one achievement. I feel really proud today. I love Halo Wars 2!!! My favorite game all time, seriously. THANKS! And Serina my love is coming. And that Grunt leader… My god you are amazing. Last but not least, the new flood expansion… Thanks! Just thank you guys for doing this. I love you! I want that Banished campaign. You are the best.
We’ve managed to catch and fix a few of these interactions, they are difficult to track down. Please respond back to this post after the new patch goes out, and let me know if the frequency goes down.
