For those just catching up: Around the release of Reach a nasty bug existed, it persisted for about 2 weeks. Any kill you received also added a death to your in-game universal profile. Halo Waypoint stats are correct, your in-game universal profile is NOT. Yeah, you’re probably better than your numbers show, yay!
Image showing example of the wild discrepancy: IMAGE
Waypoint shows 59/28
Universal Profile shows 63/42
That is a HUGE discrepancy.
During the glitch:
If you went 15-4, it logged 15-15.
If you went 4-15, it logged 15-15.
This may have went somewhat unnoticed if it occurred during a lul period, but the release of Reach AND MCC PC was one of the more peak times of MCC in recent times thus it did a lot of damage to longtime stats. It was completely apparent when every new PC player had a 1.0 K/D globally. While the original bug was fixed, the incorrect values were never amended. It’s been 4 months. Luckily all of Waypoints numbers are indeed correct! So we simply need the numbers on the UP’s to be amended, shown in a different way, etc. Having completely inaccurate numbers however should not be an option, especially not for 4-5 months. It’s misleading, inaccurate and just un-fun for any stat trackers.
I suggest making 343 aware of this issue so it can finally be fixed and sharing this with others. Thanks for the help, here’s to hoping this gets squashed sooner than later.
Original post:
This still is not fully fixed and needs to be addressed. It no longer adds a death, but the stats (which are correct on Halo Waypoint) are not amended. They are correct on Waypoint, please fix the numbers and do not allow years (in some cases) of stats to be butchered.
> - A stat error has been fixed that was causing multiplayer kills in Halo: Reach to increase the deaths in your service record.
Played a full night, they seem to be working going forward but all previous stats still on the account are butchered. Please do not ignore this, fix or wipe as it’s now wildly innacurate.
Yep, pretty annoying, they fixed the stats from adding of deaths but never removed them, a simple fix would be to copy the stats from halo waypoint service record which is the correct official ledger.
My worry is that the longer they go uncorrected, the less likely they are to be fixed. Then those afflicted will always have potentially thousands of extra deaths forever on their record
Please correct the stats to be accurate with waypoint and other places, half the issue is fixed but I have thousands of deaths that do not belong. I should not have to load a website to check my correct stats because they are wrong in game.
Amend our stats… how does something like this get beyond Alpha? Embarrassing. Bungie may make some questionable game decisions, but their UI was always A1.
Completely agree. I am happy that going forward it has been addressed, but that is only part of the solution. Let’s get the whole thing right. Fix all that was previously affected as well. Please find a way to make it accurate or start clean. Again, let’s get this right.

Have you read the thread? Many people have thousands of extra deaths only shown in-game. It isn’t adding extra deaths anymore but the extras are still there. A small issue but still frustrating for people you played a lot during launch until it was fixed.
I did read it before, but admittedly I just clicked the last post when I saw it again and forgot that it was about the extra deaths still being there. It would be nice to get fixed, but I doubt it will.

No worries. It needs to be, it’s beyond misleading.
No update on the ticket yet, but they were on vacation for the holidays so I’m expecting something soon.
-343 I’ve been turned off by halo reach since the Service record stats got completely butchered! Please resync our stats. Even if you have to turn the servers off for a few hours it’ll be worth it moving forward.
