General Issues

I’m not here to complain, but I am here to ask a few questions. Many of these questions have been asked before, so I am not sure why these issues still persist today.

1: Not getting credit for boss kills on Warzone/Warzone Firefight. This has been an ongoing issue for a long time, and nothing has changed. I am specifically talking about the all-too-common scenario where you significantly damage or even cripple a particular boss and receive absolutely no credit. I have watched almost all of the H5 live streams, and there is one moment in particular from one of the streams that rings a bell. Someone on the stream mentioned that if you deal a mere 1% of damage to any boss, you will receive credit for said boss. I am sure that anyone who has played Warzone can testify to the fact that this is most certainly not the case (unless that 1% happened to be the last shot that killed the boss). What is the deal?

2: Daily Login Packs that appear late or not at all. I know for a fact that 343i has acknowledged this issue. Here is an example from 8/9 - 8/10/2016:

If they acknowledged it, why hasn’t it changed? Clearly this is not a huge issue since it is a freebie pack, although I am sure that we would all like to know what is going on.

Also, as one final note, I find it very surprising that so few people played the Sniper playlist this past season that 343i decided to remove it from the Ranked playlist for now. Sniper playlists are (at least to me) a staple in the Halo repertoire, so it seems strange that a very new game mode like Breakout has received more attention than the classic Sniper playlist. I love Breakout, but why remove the Sniper playlist and not add something different? Ranked Arena feels skimpy without a 7th playlist.

All in all, I love H5 multiplayer and all that it has to offer, and I will keep playing the game and enjoying it thoroughly, but these issues need to be addressed! Thanks.

Boss stealing has been in Halo 5 since the beginning. Aside from keeping the other team away, there’s not much you can do about it.

The Daily log-in packs usually come in at a fixed frequency; you’ll have to figure out when they appear. For me, it’s around 10:10 AM EST when I get my packs.

I agree that Snipers is an extremely popular gamemode in the series (I prefer it over SWAT any day), but sometimes you can’t always satisfy your customers from 343’s standpoint.

True, although boss stealing makes much less sense in WZFF when everyone is going after the same boss and you don’t get any points despite having shredded MUCH more than 1% of its damage.

Word. I’ll keep an eye out for that sweet spot, although I have noticed that mine can be very inconsistent.

Right?! You hit the nail on the head.

Edit:

Proving Grounds was added recently as the 7th Arena Ranked Playlist, so that takes care of that. Sorry for the bump.
