MCC Feedback (Xbox) - March 2020

Game: Halo 3
Platform: Xbox One X
Region: West US
Multiplayer: Any playlist.
Issue: Very significant frame stuttering since the last update. Its the worst on forge maps and during intense moments with a lot happening on screen. Even looking left and right while doing nothing else causes frames to drop. It seems to not be as bad in a custom game. I have reset my router, hard reset my xbox. The game is basically unplayable. Thank you for your consideration.

MCC HALO GAME: HALO 3
FEED BACK: Gametype
I’d really love to be able to play flag and ball variants of team swat (in H3 specifically)
Also I really would like to see some sort of ranked swat option even if its just the social playlist with a soft rank like H4.
Lastly 12k exp as a cap just seems really low. Keep the exp per medal the same but just remove the cap so that players who essentially “pop off” actually get rewarded

Game: Halo 3

Issue: Lack of variety in gametypes

Currently gametypes in halo 3 are one dimensional - core and hardcore - radar with equipment and no radar with no equipment. I need to see radar with no equipment gametypes (basically Halo 2), and different H3 hardcore gametypes that feature equipment and no radar. Thank you for reading,

Thank you for adding in the classic sounds!! I have been looking forward to this change for a long time!!! There’s still some fixes I would like to see like ODST Firefight and customizable armor like in the Xbox 360 versions of Halo 3 and Halo 4. This is great!!!

I can’t wait until the newest Xbox drops so that I can go back and play Halo CE, 2, 3, ODST, and REACH from the discs I own, all unadultered and as it was released by Bungie, with NO updates.

GAME: HALO TMCC

ISSUE: NO EARNING ANY SEASON POINTS TO UNLOCK THE LAST REWARD OF THE NOBLE PASS

Hello, I just wanna make a report about an issue with my battle pass in Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It just dosen’t let me earn any season points even if I keep playing and upgrading. I already earned the 103rd rank and for the 3rd time doesn’t give me the last season point to unlock the 100th reward. Please help my gamertag is ALXLEALP.
Ps: I have a video to show you how is this issue going, but I need an email to send it

I’m being nice from now on. am just frustrated with frame drops and Google brings up no mention or time of fix. I dunno just fed up. sorry to the guy I got in a spat with. I love the game just want it resolved. stuttering when in gunfight and going up lifts explosions ect. I have fibre optic connection with a monitor. on the Xbox one x. I tried my old Xbox one in 1080p and I get less frames dropped but still I get frames dropped. I’m not dropping to 720p to play halo. I guess I’ll just have to move to call of duty untill it’s fixed. something tells me because not enough are experiencing framerate issues that it may not be resolved any time soon. even if at all. can’t see 343 team getting together for the few that seem to have issues. as a last resort I’ll contact Xbox support and report back but I suspect nothing will be done as it’s the patch itself.

Thank you people for some reason don’t seem to care or know the frame rate issues are number one priority people get the word around and if you don’t know what I’m talking about boot up outskirts for example in anniversary mode.
thanks millhyyyy actually trying to shed light on this problem

no problem mate, for what it’s worth I contacted Xbox support via a chat service. I stated my problem waited for an agent. she said have you tried turning your Xbox on and off? I just closed the window. had enough.

Wow that’s ridiculous this is an issue 343 needs to fix and the fact that it has been ongoing since December is terrible

If the playlist returns to a healthy population then you could always scale this back. Please. This would be an amazing addition and I’d imagine it would take minimal effort.

> Not a good idea. The whole point of ranked is to match against people who are similarly skilled to you. This allows for more closer and more competitive games, such as games that end 50-45 instead of ones that end 50-30. If you increase the skill search ranges or open it up entirely as you suggested, it just leads to unbalanced games/teams. And at that point “ranked” just becomes social with a number attached to it.

Games are still unbalanced and noncompetitive because everyone is playing on smurf accounts that don’t accurately represent the skill level they actually are.

Halo: Reach CE Aanniversary. BACK!
It should be a stable list, it has a lot ofpeople he likes.

This is meant for current suggestions for MCC and bugs/issues that are currently plaguing MCC this month. You were just asking for an update for something that has no eta that is neither a bug/issue or a new suggestion on how to improve MCC, answers like this are usually found out on the latest MCC blogs. I believe your type of discussion is just about speculation, should probably have been discussed as a new topic since there unlikely to give update via the threads on upcoming planned features since it has no relation to bugs/issues or new suggestions. Even if suggestions are taken on board then that would be a feature that wouldn’t need to be talked about on here anymore. This is why the OP has posed these:

This is a place to suggest things. Please don’t argue with each other if you have disagreements.

I feel putting it up on Youtube so all can see with the names of the hackers is the best way to show 343 Studios their issues. Hopefully they will look into the issues with hackers and modders.

Hey! I’ve seen a few posts around this. However, the system built currently does not support what you are suggesting. This would be a feature request at this time, though while nice, is not something we should be focusing on IMO. There are other issues listed on the Known Issues list and features discussed each month in our development blogs that are much higher priority to work on.

Maybe in the future we can circle back on what you are wanting, after rank reset keeping the highest rank achieved, but for now this isn’t something the team should be focused on IMO.

Thoughts?

My thoughts are that an overwhelming majority of us competitive players who have HIGH ranks DO NOT want our rank reset!!

If my rank resets in any of the halo 3 playlists when pc releases I will not play those playlists ever again. This is literally killing the competitive community, even naded isn’t playing ranked again if the ranks reset lol. It’s not fair, the ONLY reason these guys want rank resets, is because they can’t get a game at their low ranks, but the solution is NOT to reset our ranks, the solution is to just allow the low ranked individuals to match higher ranks.

The system should make an effort to match ppl at their ranks, but the low population may not allow that, so if no one is on at the same rank then they should let them match the next rank closer to them, even lower ranked individuals I talked to were fine with this, they just want to play, and I don’t want to play if I’m not gonna keep my rank. I want my 50 displayed in every playlist on my profile as well, the only way it can be viewed is on the new mccstats leaderboard website, so obviously, even with regards to that, I don’t want my rank reset. I grind hours every day to keep these ranks. Also I have multiple 50’s, our profile only displays one of them. I want to search 50 high and play 50 high, I only want to play lower ranks if no one my rank is on, if you reset the ranks, I wan’t be able to play the regular 50 high individuals that I play in the playlists I have 50’s in. also playlists I’m close to a 50 in, I DON’T want to lose those ranks either cuz I’m working on getting a 50 in them! LOL, self explanatory man, so many ppl I know don’t play ranked because of rank reset.

The ingame profiles definitely need an update to display highest rank achieved regardless if a playlist is removed. Many people want this and don’t play ranked because of it, also the amount of wins it takes to get a 50 need to be cut in half.

Also regarding H2c ranked we haven’t had any updates to it in over a year, why so long and when will it be updated and with what playlist? Hopefully a FFA!
thanks
