Both my Twitch and Waypoint accounts say linked/connected and I’ve claimed both rewards (weapon and armour shaders) from Twitch, but nothing is showing up in game. I also made sure to link the accounts before watching the live streams.
When you linked you Twitch.tv account on HaloWayPoint was your account listed by name or just “…”
If you claim it while it’s “…” you won’t get the items. You’ll probably need to rewatch the streams on a fresh new twitch.tv . But don’t claim them till you see an actual name when you link your twitch.tv account to HaloWayPoint.
I’ve been speculating that ad blocker is interfering with it, because I was able to link instantly using a web browser ( googles ) with no add block enabled on it.
That’s how it worked for me… I claimed the weapon coat when it was “…” and got nothing, even after KittStargazer showed up. But the Spartan skin worked fine with my name there. I created a new twitch.tv account and rewatched the one channel for another chance at the gun skin and it worked. Don’t “Claim” the drops till your name shows up on HaloWayPoint instead of the “…”.
Not to call anyone a moron mind you. But if they did this as a means to deter people from using ad blockers like I suggested it’s not their fault either. You don’t like how they do things doesn’t unnecessary make them wrong.
It’s more of an “it sucks” situations, but it is what it is…
I was simply letting the other person know that this cannot be their fault. Especially when 343 or whoever orchestrated this, didn’t even explain any of the specifics… they only said “link up accounts and watch specific streams.” Any extra hoops that needed to be jumped through should have been clarified to us all.
