MCC Halo Game: Halo 2
Feedback: Campaign Freezing (The Great Journey)As of the past few days I have been 1 level away from finishing my (Monopolized) achievement to complete Halo 2 in under 3hrs. Long story short, The level I’m having trouble with is “The Great Journey” and what I mean by “trouble”, I mean is, is that every time I complete The Great Journey, the game freezes on the very last word of the very last cutscene where Cortana says “Shoot” The game literally freezes there every attempt I complete with a good time on Legendary, I have attempted the level with Speedrun strats, and it froze. I have attempted the normal play through way and it froze. I was able to complete it on Easy yesterday with the cloning Johnson method, but can’t complete it whatsoever on Legendary! I’ve literally have had a 13:51, 14:40, and 15:30 times stolen from me because the game freezes on the very last word of the cutscene, can you imagine beating the level and being forced to watch the last cutscene just for it to freeze on the last word every time on Legendary only wether it’s coop or not… Can someone explain to me the logic behind this freeze? May I remind you that: I’m able to beat the level perfectly fine on Easy with no freeze, but when done on Legendary it freezes? I’ve tried it both ways on Legendary (with and without Speedrun Strats and coop / solo) Is this happening to anyone else??? Because this one level is holding me up from Monopolized and it’s a stress that after days, weeks, months, it comes down to this one level freezing on the last cutscene after Tartarus is dead when Cortana is suppose to say “shoot” it freezes every time.
Imagine your frustration if you did this on LASO… anyway, sadly, I do not think any of us here have any idea on why it freezes. This is stuff 343 should test and fix on their end.

Yep I just tried for myself. Mine doesn’t freeze, it goes through as normal. Yes, I did it solo legendary, so no issue on my part. But I wonder how many are actually affected by this.
It worked now, after days and days of attempts but now monopolize will still not pop for me

According to your service record, you still have to do The Arbiter, The Oracle, Regret, Gravemind and High Charity. Maybe you already did but did not register. You may need to redo them.
That’s because I did all of them on Coop. I didn’t really play most of the levels solo, some I did solo because it was easier for me but the game takes all your best times and counts them up, which most of them I did with a friend. That’s why you’re not seeing them completed on solo. But they show for me just fine all across the board on coop

My bad, I only checked solo. Well guess I am not used to coop and it shows hehe 
A malignant trick is to save and quit at the last checkpoint when you have to fight Tartarus. And you resume the mission as much as you want and your time is saved at this checkpoint.
I’ve found a fix!! Whatever mission you are having trouble with legendary not recognising, complete the mission in original graphics. Worked for me on the great journey and Cairo station not showing completed on L co op. Both switch to OG graphics I swear
