Is the Halo gamerscore on Halo Waypoint accurate? Does it refresh in a 24hr interval period or is some games not included in the overall gamerscore?
It refreshes fairly quickly.
Not all games are included.
Here are the ones that are:
1200 Halo Wars (360)
1700 Halo Reach
1000 Halo CE Anniversary
1750 Halo 3
1000 Halo 3: ODST
2000 Halo 4
400 Halo Spartan Assault
1000 Halo Spartan Assault (Xbox One)
250 Halo Spartan Assault (PC)
250 Halo Spartan Assault (Mobile)
200 Halo Spartan Strike (PC)
200 Halo Spartan Strike (Mobile)
1250 Halo 5: Guardians
1750 Halo Wars 2
6000 Halo: The Master Chief Collection
1000 Halo 5: Forge
20950 Total
Here are the ones not included.
1000 Halo 2 (PC)
1500 Halo Wars Definitive Edition
MCC China
Spartan Series games on iOS and Steam
I don’t think there are any others?
[edit - MCC now offers 7,000 gamerscore including Reach - with a new total of 21,950]
Thanks, helps out a ton. I was achievement hunting on HW Definitive Edition so that explains why my score wasn’t moving.

I take it this is not included because it would be double counting the score from the original release, right?

Maybe its because there are two different Halo Wars Definitive Editions… one on Steam and one on Xbox/Windows Store.
No idea why it wasn’t included.
Honestly probably just because they didn’t bother.
Who knows, I don’t think theirs any footnote out there for that.

I guess so, I’ll take the credit for completing it though lol

I don’t think so because SA and SS get counted multiple times. I think this was another thing that was looked over in the rush to release HWDE.
I would think its a simple update to the website, maybe its handled and communicated differently between the teams. Web team is probably a contracting party or something different internally in Microsoft.

I think that Waypoint is entirely handled by 343, but I could be wrong.
And I don’t think it’s as easy as flipping a switch.
Some things just can’t get pulled / displayed for content restriction reasons, privacy, licensing.
Who knows?
One thing to note is that Halo CE Anniversary service record is only viewable to yourself, you can’t see anyone else’s record.
It’s possible H2V had some quirks in their service agreement that does not allow for things to be pulled. HWDE was put together by a different studio I think, so there cold be some complication there too.
Guess we’ll never know why some things don’t happen here. Bet there is a valid reason though.
I begin my quest for full gamer score on Halo MCC starting tomorrow! Wish me luck!

I greatly appreciate it! Thank you very much!
I was just looking at the specifics. It’ll take some time for sure!

Thanks, it helps to know which ones didn’t count
I wonder if after the games shut off servers if it will matter for the older games.
