Just to add - my ability to swap weapons had also un-binded. Also playing on the base Xbox One. I had to opt to ‘Restore Defaults’ as it wouldn’t rebind.
I’m enjoying the Training Mode. I think, as others have said, there is scope to build apon it in the future, but the concept of it feels very fresh and it definitely scratches that itch of having a space to warm up and familiarise yourself with the weapons. I like how on-the-fly the weapon and gear switching is. Feels very dynamic.
Excited to spend some more time hands-on over the weekend!
Not sure why bit in training area i cant switch my weapons. Like i have an ar main ad the sidekick alt. I cant hit y(swap fkr me) and change weapons. Not sure why.
I can pick weapons up though, and can manually pause and change my weapon i have though at least.
Thanks for going back to the traditional motion tracker - I like where the difficulty of bots are much more. I think they’re in a pretty good place. Obviously more “intelligence” tweaks here and there would be great as I am still seeing the occasional bot getting hung up on a wall and such.Dislikes/feedback:
In order to get a multikill it seems like the chain is much too fast. You have to almost get two in one shots or be within .5 seconds of your last kill to count. - Where is Jeff Steitzer?! I miss him calling out multikills and sprees. It’s not the same without him - The melee/reload/melee combo needs to be nerfed - Melee lunge distance feels a little too long. maybe reduce by about 10% - I would like to see the power weapon on the map recharge to be the energy sword instead of the hammer - Grenade toggle needs to go back to the old system. It was much better at that point.Overall I feel like things are headed in the right direction. Just a few more tweaks and I like how things are looking.
I like this:
> 2) I wish there to be regular Custom Game options like in previous games where you choose kill limits, time limits, game mode type, loadouts that everyone spawns with and the option to disable, enable different kinds (Human, Forerunner, Covenant, Snipers, Rockets, Rifles), or randomize weapons that appear on map. Maybe just not available in the Flight and that’s ok, but this one mode of just continuous onslaught is quite weird.

I dunno where I got 8800k from, but I’m running the same specs as you. Tried playing with different resolutions/reso scaling too and it doesn’t seem to make a difference. I’ve seen some folks streaming with lesser PCs that are getting smooth fr, so maybe it’s an issue specific to the 2080. The first flight was a little choppy at times but this is significantly worse and almost unplayable.
EDIT: had a Windows update to install and it is much better now.
I’m not sure if this is is an issue only I have encountered. But I went to go into the pause menu while in the playing against bots and I the menu doesn’t show up anymore.
Issue : Pause menu not showing up after roughly 30-40 minutes of play times.
Hopeful Resolution : Restarting the game and seeing if that works. (Will update if it does/does not.)
ANYONE HAVING TROUBLE WITH NOT GETTING YOUR MESSAGE ON WAYPOINT. go to where you update your flighting info, at the bottom of the page you should see where it shows the flights and will have your steam code to the right, underneath the “additional info” tab
Is anyone else still unable to get access to a steam code??
edit- If you still haven’t received a message that you are in the flight you need to go to your profiles drop down menu and click “Halo Insider” and go to ‘Flighting’ you should see the steam code right there

> I’m playing on the xbox series x and while going through the different weapons at the range, the bots seem to be a bit glitchy. I’m getting proper hit markers from the weapons but the bots seem to be phasing in and out as they run across the arena. Anyone else notice this?
Range would be under Weapon Drills for each weapon, no? This thread is about Training Mode which is the PVE. So you might want to post in Weapon Drills area.
However, I am experiencing exactly what you are talking about with the Ravager on Ravager 1 at the ~15m range. The plasma goes right through the bot if it’s right in front of me. Also with that tho, the 3 Star calls for 18,000 sometimes and randomly 142,000 other times. I continuously get 20,000+ points and I’m stuck at 2 Star rating so it’s bugged all around.
Curious as to why you changed the grenade swap system from a toggle to this new button press system. I personally find it rather cumbersome, since 1. trying to do it in battle is damn near impossible since I CONSTANTLY press the wrong grenade type button, 2. you can only carry two grenade types regardless so a toggle seems to be the superior option, and 3. I am playing on a controller, and there are four grenade types. I cannot bind the frag grenade to anything, since it conflicts with the switch equipment button. There are literally not enough buttons on a controller to be able to have all of the options lmao.
Also, on a side note, why is there a swap equipment button option when you can only carry one equipment piece? Is that only there for campaign for when you have the grapple equipped all the time along with other equipment you pick up?

why did no one try this earlier? I’ve been refreshing waypoint for trying to get it to pop up the notification or the email
Massive issue with the game being cpu bottle necked. I have a rtx 2070 and a i7 10700k OC at 5Ghz, getting around 100 frames on maxed which is not enough for a competitive play. Thinking I could change the graphics from max to low like all all other games to get my butter smooth 144. No matter if I change all to low down to 800p
or maxed at full 1080p still the exact same 100 fps. Very clear you guys are depending to much on the cpu to render parts of the game. The gameplay is amazing though, hopefully there will be a fix at launch with settings that actually scale performance. idk who you guys are expecting to have a cpu that boosts further then 5.5Ghz to get anymore performance.

> Sept 23 Training mode cannot switch weapons. I double checked my controls and the secondary weapons are visible in the HUD, but the action to switch weapons does nothing. This was not an issue for me in the first flight during bot matches or pvp arena at the end of the previous flight. Potentially just a Training mode issue in this build. Loving training mode by the way! Great to learn maps and weapons and practice agility/movement with new equipment. Supurb addition to the Halo formula!
Hey DU3L MAUL3RS, can you change your controller’s button layout and then back. This should resolve this.
I don’t know where to leave this but abit of feedback I need to be able to check the scoreboard in training as Im enjoying playing versus bots but not being able to see what’s happened in the session sucks please address this as all I want to know is my kills and my deaths not important because there bots but still I’d like to know otherwise it feels pointless if u get me

> Don’t know if it’s a bug but I can’t see my legs when I look down
Whole leg, thighs, knees, feet? I can see my thighs some games, and having the issue of seeing nothing but my awkward shadow or weird footprints under me in other games.
Hey guys I got the wrong platform I never put Xbox I had an Xbox one but that thing broke and then I took off the Xbox insiders from Halo Insider but they still gave me access to the Halo infinite preview test on Xbox instead of on Steam is there a way to switch different platforms cuz I do not have a a Xbox anymore
Forgot to say apart from not being able to see a scoreboard which I’d say it needs quite badly it’s a little hard to understand the grapple but I haven’t played much yet just don’t get how I refill it. But overall impressions it’s smooth and feels like a good halo online game to me but newer obviously, good fun gameplay against bots and decent visuals. I’m on the launch Xbox one myself no next gen shizzle but it’s a good game to me I’ll deffo be getting it just please add the scoreboard atleast it gives the mode a reason and works as a way to track ur improvement
