I’ve been trying to play multiplayer for the longest of time but it keep saying retrieving data and it’ll just sit there for ever I’ve left it on for 2 hours and when I came back it still said retrieving data does anybody know how to solve this problem
Forerunner weapons locking onto enemies… wtf is that?
Do you feel that req. packs being a micro transaction give people with deeper wallets the edge? In other words you can be a better player by having a bigger credit card?
I have a problem with multiplayer it says it has to retrieve data but it never does it just sits they’re with the loading icon forever I don’t have the game disc I preordered it on my Xbox one in the store and it just sits there forever please help if u know what to do
Yes the ground pound was a bit crappy, everyone really hates it & its a pretty bad feature to be honest. The Infection mode kept booting me out a lot & didn’t get into a game until the 6th try.
I’m confused by some things but its just getting used to the game I guess.
L2 for co op legendary
I actually just made a topic on what I felt is really holding Halo 5 back. You can look it up for a more in-depth post, but basically the tl;dr version, I really feel like they need to improve aim-assist where now it is essentially non-existent. It really raises the skill gap which is not a good thing (think like the wealth gap between rich and poor).
Warzone is a lot of fun, and I did for the most part like the storyline. New Spartan abilities are fun to use, but ya, Arena just makes me not want to play the game because console FPS aiming is so awful and unrealistic. That’s at least something I liked about Halo 3 and 4 is that I at least felt like I was contributing to the team, instead of dying like 5 times per 1 kill I make.
Warzone matchmaking just don’t work for me. I don’t know if is because i’m playing from Brazil, but it’s extremely hard to find a match. Sometime it takes more than 30 minutes to find a match if finds.
I question if 343 will read this thread with too much consideration but if they do here is my advise from a long time halo vet.

Fix the aim acceleration. Seriously halo has had it nailed pretty well for years. Why change it to the COD style now? Look at my other posts in the aiming forums to see what i’m talking about.

Make acquiring heavy vehicle cards in warzone a SLIGHTLY easier. I loved using the tanks in the beginning when I started but now the only time i can get a tank, banshee, etc is from the random vehicle spawn card I haven’t received a single tank or flight vehicle card and warzone is all i’ve been playing after i beat the campaign. It’s been only 2 days and already I’m seeing a lot of warzone matches with limited heavy vehicles due to nobody having the cards to use them.
-
Fix spawning a little. I have had several instances where a) i spawned directly in front of someone capturing a base, b) people spawned directly behind me while capturing a base.
-
Fix the jagged movement of characters when the system isn’t catching up with the movement compression. For those of you who don’t know what i’m talking about try running around the level where you play as locke and have to talk to the villagers. If you turn fast enough and run around occasionally you’ll see people walking that their legs just don’t move natural. It’s jagged and really eye jarring. My guess this a side effect of the 60 fps and the system not being able to keep up.

Adjust the vehicle boarding. Not sure exactly what it is but the boarding just seems really wonky. I had an incident where i was literally standing on top of a wraith and couldn’t board but the player just boosted then to kill me despite not moving at all when I landed on him. other times a spartan was running towards me in the wraith and he boarded from what looked like 20 feet away from me. Getting into the turrets for friendly tank is also a lesson in patience as if you don’t get it just right you’ll never get the option to get in.

NO SPLIT SCREEN!? Seriously. I’m not going to go buy a second xboxone and second game just to play this with my significant other. Drop the game down to 30 fps if you have to. I don’t understand why you felt this was such a necessity.
Even though this sounds like a rant it’s not. TBH i have been very impressed with the improvements made in this game. Also I can’t stress enough how happy i am to see loadouts and armor abilities for competitive multiplayer gone.
i have received an error message saying that my profile count not be synced. I solved this by switching to a guest profile and then switching back to my original profile.
The only problem I have is that I cannot see my opponents levels or CSR. Anyone agree?
To be honest I only have a few minor things. Mostly game balancing. Like Magnum has too much range for me. Sometimes I wonder what the point of the DMR is when the magnum is basically the same. Also I find grenades are just a little too thick on the ground. Just too many of them. Everyone can through easily 4 in most fights. Just spamming them. But this is nit picking at what is overall a fantastic game and a return to form for the halo series. Im very happy. And with the promise of more playlists, maps and seasons. I’ll be playing this a long time

> Played Arena Slayer and 2 tm left early into the match. No one joined afterwards so was left to play 2v4 the whole game. Does Halo not add players to matches already made?
Apparently not. This happen to me multiple times. There needs to be at least a handicap applied to the team with more players. Be it less shields or the lesser team with more.
tried halo 5 this morning and cant get over the fact that when i point that gun it slants to the left i am use to pointing a gun and looking straight down the sights so annoying having to keep adjusting for the slant of the gun

Read about the aim acceleration. The aim assist reduction isn’t a bad thing. It’s just a bad thing when combined with the aim acceleration modification they made from previous halos. Check out my other posts and you’ll see what i’m talking about.
Spawns are a little whack on some of the maps, especially Orion.
- I want unranked playlists to be able to play alone and not have to worry about effin’ up my CSR, which yes may be stupid to worry about since it’s a game, but something I’m proud of holding on to 2 Onyx CSR’s
One thing I’m disappointed about is the ability to quickly get off a turret. For example, when using a stationary turret, the user should be able to boost off of it if they are taking too much damage. I believe this is better than having to hold X, wait through the animation, and then boost to safety.
No good spawning, not feeling like a spartan, etc. the beta is better.
No split screen.
