I just left ten games in a row

…and I don’t feel guilty one bit.

Ok 343, you’re taking the piddle now!

  • complete oddball matches X2

I played 20 games in a row and didn’t get one oddball, funnily enough I roughly got equal amounts of strongholds, slayer and CTF.

I then left the next ten matches which were also not oddball.

I’m the first to point and laugh at tin foil hat wearers but I fail to see how this constant, obvious, statistically far from unlikely event that happens week in week out is not deliberate.

I only have 5 swaps and that’s only because of your BTB compensation mess, having completed the BP dec31 I have no way to earn them because of that being another thing you didn’t think through so I’m not using them because I’m saving them for any more stupidity from yourself I encounter.

I want to play your game, making me play a gametype that I don’t want to play and then not giving me the gametype and forcing me to play a different gametype I don’t want to play or threatened with a ban is not a clever way to make me enjoy Halo and recommend it to others.

I’m sure you could get someone to fix this before next Tuesday for the next battlepass.

It’s like you’re trying your best to deliberately breed hatred for this game.

Make that 11 - CTF behemoth
12 - slayer behemoth (I played this for the one skewer, so 1 out of 32 :+1:)
13 - OMG it was oddball, woohoo (but are you actually trying to make me don a tinfoil hat after finally commenting I get the challenge?!)
14 - back to behemoth CTF. (I’ve got to get 7 flag captures for my last challenge, I bet there’s no CTF then?!)

Using 40 swaps in 8 weeks kinda sounds like something you didn’t think through.

I agree with everything you said though.

Was using them at any opportunity towards the end because I thought ‘what’s the point in saving them’.

I’m sure if I had 40, I’d be swapped with ‘complete 5 oddball’, then’win 5 oddball’ and be in the same boat.

Thing is, Tuesday everyone is playing weird and everyone is frustrated by being forced into the wrong gametype.

The later in the week you get, the better the strats, teamwork and less rage you feel towards this game.

Anyway, time for 62526 melee attrition challenges

All I keep getting is oddball, and then someone has to hide behind that one desk making it an ordeal to get them out of their little hidey corner.

What kills me is the repeat attrition challenges… despite completing the event in full last week… like no… I don’t want to do that again.

The only good thing is can work on 3 of them at same time and guaranteed correct gametype, but yeah same story here

13

If you abandon matches, it ups the chances of getting those game modes again over others that you didn’t abandon… To the point that it nearly garuntee’s them lol.

14

Nope, the first 20 - I did not leave.

When I started leaving, I got the 2. Well, on the 13th and 15th games

15

Tip for the hidey desk
Step 1: Throw in frag or spike grenade
Step 2: Leave room
Step 3: Enter room for headshot
If the team is all over them, grab the drop wall by the raised area (Zone A in strongholds), and the shotgun (attached to the vending machine) and start blasting from the other side of the doorway (Heatwave is best for this). Make sure to check radar and Ping your team over. Spike grenades are on the stairs opposite Oscar’s house, which can be thrown through the drop wall

I have tried so much to get people out of that corner. When their whole team is coordinated and sweating like it is a ranked championship match, it is a nightmare to try and even pry the ball from that corner; let alone get yourself inside.

Plus with how crap grenades are in this game, I have seen WAY TOO MANY people survive a grenade landing at their feet.

I stuck someone in the head once, shot them with my BR, and then the grenade disappeared. Worst part was we couldn’t get the zone back and lost the game. Ranked too :frowning:

They changed it so if you shoot a grenade, it just breaks rather than explode.
A heck of a downgrade if you ask me.

There are two ways to earn them.

  1. Drink Rockstar Energy. Every can has a tab with a code that can be redeemed for 2 swaps.

  2. Earn Microsoft Reward points by completing daily activities, such as searches and Halo achievements. Then redeem the points for a Microsoft Gift Card that can be used to purchase Halo credits. I currently have 42,000 points (e.g., 46,000 points = $50 credit)

Or number 3… buy them for $2 in the shop as it is always available.

That is at least what they want you to do. Honestly, I have yet to even consider buying them.
So why bother having it in the shop to begin with? I can’t imagine they get profits from it.
