My cousin and I were playing the Halo 2 campaign over the internet together. Game was smooth entire time. Get to the cinematic scene at the end and it crashes. We caught a video of it. Didn’t get credit for the win.
Infuriating.
Same thing happened to me TWICCEEEE!! On Legendary!!! I was playing twice and it crashed TWICE. Took me hours each time. I want to CRYYYYY
Same thing happened to me and a friend on co-op legendary, game crashes when doing final boss battle against regret. In the progress of beating regret one final time when the game freezes and crashes. Happened three times now when doing the legendary playlist, would prefer to finish regret on legendary and continue on to the next mission on the playlist. I don’t want to keep regretting trying to play regret on legendary with my friend when all we can expect is the game to crash during the boss battle.
Exact same thing for me and my friend, the first time it crashed on legendary when facing him towards the end of the fight and 2nd time it crashed just after we killed him on legendary.
It seems that the crash only happens on the legendary playlist, we tried normal legendary with skulls on forgetting the legendary playlist for halo 2 and we finished the mission just fine. No freezing or crashing, if anyone runs into that problem on the playlist, avoid the playlist and do the mission the old fashioned way until 343 patch the playlist.
Crashes on Legendary outside of the playlist as well, a buddy and I have tried it four times now. It almost always crashes right at the same spot near the end of the mission, when you exit a structure after getting off the 2nd submerged elevator, facing the grassy cliff. Drives me crazy. I haven’t tried any other difficulties or solo either.
I have had the same issue twice now too! Cutscene starts then bombs to lost connection… Sucks!
Try keeping the game in old graphics not remastered I had the same problem and that fixed it.
Its luck of the draw on Regret in finishing the game. Just a heads up you run into more issues on Quarantine Zone if you play online co-op, most likely you and your partner will end up desync. Game shows us in each other games, but in our own separate games. Game still showed my buddie with me and vice versa, but we were in two different games with the other being controlled by a dummy ai which can only move in one direction and nothing else. If it dies, iron kicks in and we go back to the old checkpoint but at the same time the score from each others games still count together but in our own games we dont get a restart checkpoint if the other player dies in their game. Only when the dummy ai that shows the other player dies do we hit a restart checkpoint. It happens the moment we enter the wraiths open field area.
After overcoming the problem with Regret, we became stuck on that mission. Haven’t made any progress in finishing Halo 2 campaign co-op with my friend because of these issues since december. At this point we gave up on this game, on 343 trying to make this game playable. People at 343 need to learn how to fix their game, they might as well go back to college or seek outside help like the folks at bungie. Hopefully this upcoming update, will fix these issues so that me and my friends can enjoy Halo 2 again like the good ole days on the original xbox. If not the halo collection will continue to collect dust in the corner.
Me and my friend have exactly the same issue. We both have tried to play regret on legendary 3 times. 3 TIMES! Every single time it has crashed either when we just killed the prophet and hit the clip scene or in the battle at the end. It sucks really because the game won’t recognize that we have done the mission. I hope 343 industries can fix this mission soon…
I even have a game clip of it messing up if anyone at 343 wants it.
It’s still happening and I’m fatking pipped about it! The reason why I’m fatking pipped is because 343 doesn’t give a ship about campaign players. They didn’t even acknowledge loyal campaign players who put up with their bugs while announcing their “gifts” to the community for putting up with all the bugs multiplayer players suffer through. Fix this garbage 343!
Numerously reported by many people. 343 doesn’t care to comment on the bug, so there is no reason to expect them to fix it.
H2A campaign co-op/splitscreen numerous crashes on many levels. Regret has been impossible to complete, it crashes and resets on cutscene before boss battle, or immediately after beating the boss. Played the entire level 5 times on splitscreen. Crash every single time. Happens on heroic difficulty too.
Happens at the exact same moment for me. Legendary split-screen. Two times in a row. Freakin annoying
hello everyone
i have a little problem im playing halo 2 legendary on mission regret and my game crashes back to xbox desktop when im fighting REFRET or befor i reach him it also happens when i play it on co-op!
are there any fixes for this mission
thanks
Yeah this is so annoying, I have now been trying to finnish this level on legendary and it crashes always once the boss is killed and the animation is about to start… in co-op does not matter who hosts, it has now crashed a total of 6 times at the end…
Its luck of the draw with Regret; either you get lucky and game doesn’t crash or you don’t. For me and my friends we stopped using the playlist and did the missions manually but we became stuck on Quarantine Zone. Haven’t made any progress on the games campaign since then. More than 4 months now since game was released, still waiting on that fix 343. Stop slacking off, and fix the game. 1 month of live and the promise of a free expansion is not good enough 343, you owe us big time for making us wait this long for you patch this game that should have never been released before it was carefully tested.
Count me as another sucker that bought this game. It was really the main reason I opted for the Xbox One over the PS4 which is the superior machine and at this point preferred by developers.
My son and I endured the many bugs and crashes to finally complete Halo CE: Anniversary and were both completely GEEKED to play thru H2A. Of course it wasn’t long before our enjoyment was affected by more of the same kinds of bugs found in CE… An hour or so spent playing thru a level only for it to lock up and give you no credit for it. This is so completely infuriating. Honestly, at this point I would be fine with getting my money back for the game and the One. I’ve pretty much had it. If this next update does not fix these serious issues to make the game playable I’ll have to start reaching out to Microsoft and making some demands. I’m not sure how effective that will be, but I’m on my 3rd system with them now and I have never had such a horrible experience with an Xbox game… Ever! This one is just a nightmare. Such a horrible way to sour our perceptions of a game that used to be the pinnacle. Now it’s a joke.
Very sorry that they have pimped you, Master Chief. Now I’m guessing you wish you’d really died in that explosion at the end of Halo3.
Just curious. Has ANYONE been able to pass this level (Regret) on legendary coop(split screen)? We’ve crashed at least 4 times. The latest time we tried disconnecting from the network. No luck.
Ok. We took network offline AND played in “classic mode” (not remastered) and were able to complete Regret (legendary Splitscreen coop). We didn’t get our achievements until we reconnected to the network and then the game updated.
I’ve tried this level twice on legendary coop. my partner and i would make it to the boss fight and it would crash when reloading a checkpoint. this is pathetic 343, how could thid happen 4 months after tge game is released. Is it a good idea to just do the boss fight in classic mode?
