Infinity Slayer Ordnance Glitch

Games Other Halo
1

Heya,

So, tonight I was affected by a new (to me) glitch while playing Infinity Slayer. It’s possible that I’ve had this happen before and just didn’t realize it, but this time it was such a drastic change, that I couldn’t possibly forget it.

I was playing on Complex, and I rolled Frag Grenades / Sniper Rifle / Damage Boost on my Personal Ordnance. I figured I’d wait til I died, switch back to my Ammo loadout, and grab the Sniper Rifle. Well, about 20-30 seconds later, I hadn’t died yet, and all of a sudden we lost one of our teammates, and it went to the scoreboard.

When I was brought back into the game, and the announcer said “Infinity Slayer,” I got the “Ordnance Ready” message again, however, my Ordnance choices were now completely different: Pulse Grenades / Sticky Launcher / Speed Boost. That may not be the “end of the world” on Haven, Abandon, or Adrift, but on Complex, that’s a HUGE swing in the opponents’ favor!

So yeah- has anyone had this happen to them? And if so, is this something that has been around for a while, and I just hadn’t realized it before? Or is this a fairly new issue?

Thanks!

Has no one else run into this? Or did my post just get buried by other threads too quickly?

After a host change, the game rolls the ordnance selection again.

Basically the same like in previous Halo games when power weapons on the map respawn after host change.

It re-rolls for a random weapon etc after coming back from blackscreen.
When you chose your weapon the plug was pulled/ already going into effect of the scoreboard. So when you see players running in place or rubbing a wall get ready it may go into blackscreen.

Happens to me very often :frowning:

Your not alone… this happened to me too. Basically what happens is when you blackscreen, it restarts the game (beides score, player placement, and time)

So naturally the Ordinance resets/rerolls also… its a slight pain, but yeah :frowning:
