MCC Season 8 Feedback

I’m not sure if it’s just me but the h2c hit registration is really bad now. I sometimes have to turn every server off and stick with east and that basically nullifies their non host advantage. It’s still not good on east either. Tons of blood shots, melees not counting and sniper/shotty bullets not doing any damage. Swat is pretty bad to play these days same with shotty snipes.

It’s more frustrating when you’re like how is their shots killing or working.

Halo 4

So many changes to spartan ops but still no fix for tracking difficulty progression? Hasn’t this been an issue since 2019? And now you’re adding playlists with no mention of fixing the most basic UI element? I’m having to run through the entire spartan ops mode in heroic because a sleep deprived moment resulted in one of the levels being done on normal… Having this fix prioritized before even considering the addition of playlist would’ve been nice.

Hey 343,

why don’t you Fix the massive issue of me getting a matchmaking ban from Lagging out of your -Yoink- servers?? Just lagged out of a game where I was absolutely slapping, and to add insult to injury I’m now banned for 15 mins, what a load of -Yoinking!- -Yoink-.

Maybe the devs should spend less time making cringey dark souls armour ruining Halo 3’s legacy and finally fixing the -Yoinking!- servers.

-Yoink- you.

you suck.

I miss Bungie

343 please enable proton EAC functionality so we can finally play in online matchmaking, PLEASE.

If 343 doesn’t have plans to update the lighting in Halo 2: Anniversary’s multiplayer, it’d be really nice if players were given flashlights. I can’t see weapons as bright as the Needler, let alone the dark ones such as the assault rifle. It’d also benefit ODST, I think it’d be cool as a per-mission thing, where if a level or Firefight mission isn’t at night, then the ODST would use a flashlight ported from Halo 3 instead of night vision since it’s so blinding.

And, with this week’s Shotty Snipers playlist, I still think it’d be such a good Firefight playlist as well: Like in Shotty Snipers, they’d have grenade pickups, and like in Sniper Fight, players would have a 150% damage multiplier and infinite ammo. I think it’d be good if it was a challenging playlist rather than an arcadefight playlist, without overshields, with limited lives, Halo Reach’s Heroic Firefight’s armor ability options, all while being on either a normal or heroic setting.

> sooo… no more exchange items for now? not even rotating the previous ones like in previous seasons when the exchange content completed a full rotation cycle? why tho?

My guess is that it’s just a bug on their end. With how many Exchange items there are, if there weren’t new items than they’d just cycle through the old ones as they’ve done before.

Ok I have to ask, is there actually punishments for leaving games, and if there are, can we please increase them to the heavens? Make it like 24 hours 1st offense.

My friends and I play reach BTB religiously, probably 50-100 games a week depending on work. Every single game there are people who leave the game early, and people just AFK the entire match. I personally believe that leaving a game in which you chose to play should come at a harsh consequence. It is a gigantic waste of time and there aren’t many fun matches anymore. This has become a huge problem in the last few weeks and I’m honestly not sure why. Also are people who AFK games getting punished? They should be, its the same as leaving except you feed points. You have a system in place to detect them being AFK, and it pulls them out of queue after the game, so it should also slap them with a punishment at the same time. It is extremely frustrating to play the game like this, and I hope something is implemented. Also for the love of god implement a system that can detect how much damage people do to friendly vehicles and auto kick them when a certain threshold is hit. Too many people running around destroying friendly vehicles in BTB. Also I think the booting system in BTB shouldn’t exist how it does. It is incredibly easy on a map like Asphalt to kill 3 friendlies by splatter, while playing to win the game. It is accidental, game doesn’t care. I think a way to deal with this is to keep the current ramping punishments for getting booted, implement vote kick that cannot be initiated if a party has a majority. It is very simple, it gets rid of people you shouldn’t have to deal with, without giving a single person the power to boot someone because they dropped off a ledge in front of a speeding ghost. It has been a very frustrating 2 weeks of play in reach MCC, hopefully something is done against the mass leavers and mass AFKs. The destroying friendly vehicles is once every 5-10 games, its not so bad, but the AFK and leavers are every single game.

  • MCC HALO GAME: Halo CE - FEEDBACK: Currently CE has client side authoritative hit registration for only the sniper rifle and pistol. The rest of the sandbox requires extra shot leading to compensate for ping. Weapons like the plasma rifle and shotgun feel like they never land their shots because of this. - ADDITIONAL INFO: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1O36btqYtQ4

343, I can’t play your game anymore, and it is no fault of my own… Every time a new update comes out I have anti-cheat incidents happen. Redownloading the game doesn’t work, but every time up until season 8 has come out, I have been able to fix it by scouring the internet and finding solutions to this problem. However with season 8, I can’t. I have tried an absurd amount of things to try and fix this issue that shouldn’t be in the game, especially one as long standing as the MCC. I can’t fix it. I am a dedicated player who loves Halo, and I have never cheated in my life. Now there is nothing I can do and I can’t play the MCC.

Halo master chief collection is a great game in my opinion but they could have at least put a useable phantom in the forge maps as well as a usable scarab that would have been really awesome

Don’t make this a 0.00x skull either, please.

I don’t if it’s only me but the game crashes once in a while when I play Halo 3 custom games. It was not crashing in the season 8 flight, but it is crashing now. I hope 343i sees this and fix this issue as soon as they can.

(MCC in general)
Overall, I’m really enjoying this season, and I’ll list what I like and don’t like about it.
Moa Statues: Plain and simple, they’re a good hunt for weekly challenges, or when you’re just playing through the campaign and stumble across one.
Season 8 armors: I’m not going to be the first to say this or the last, but they admittedly are pretty damn cool, although they don’t fit into halo 3’s multiplayer as well. Obviously, there’s the new customization option, which solves that issue, though I don’t really mind seeing them in the multiplayer and haven’t disabled new customization.
Reach is a bit different, the helmets aren’t way too wacky (We don’t need to talk about Forsaken Dragon) and don’t mess with the style of the game all too much, however, the Belos helmets (Heran, Syntrofos, & Kerata specifically) don’t blend in all too well with Reach’s armor customization, but I can’t really describe what seems odd about those 3.
Challenges: The changes made to weekly PVE/PVP challenges aren’t really in many’s liking. A lot of the challenges such as “Skullduggery” and “Pinpoint” don’t grant season points anymore, as well as ranking up I believe. (I’m not sure if you stop getting points when you reach tour 5, or if it was entirely removed as I only reached tour 5 right at the end of Season 7.) The seasonal challenges however bring quite the grind, giving me something to do while I have pretty much nothing else to do at the most convenient time. Props to that.

A few questions I have:
Seeing as Season 8 is going to be the last season for the MCC, what about unlocking new customization? This is a bit more specific to Reach, seeing as the only thing you can customize when you’re a new player/weren’t there for S1, is your spartan’s armor color. (I only made it about two pages in before my dad came down a bit late for Christmas of 2019, who I didn’t get to see for 7 years.) Obviously, 343 isn’t going to repeat entire seasons, so that’s out of the question, but will they be adding stuff from previous seasons, as they did with the Mister Chief Mariner last season (which by the way, pissed me off after having to do all that bug-fixy stuff lol) after Season 8 ends? Some people are more concerned about the obtainability of items from previous seasons, flexing now unobtainable items, while newer players are stuck with default Six.
I’m fully aware the vast majority of people are going to be grinding on Halo Infinite when it releases on December 8th, but there’s going to be those swapping between games every now and then, and those who would prefer to remain on the MCC.

When will the flood be added to ODST firefight? I know they were delayed due to them being rather buggy in the flights, as well as post-match stances/poses, but is there an approximate/exact date, or general idea of when they will be added? I kinda live under a rock, so my bad if some of these questions have already been answered.

Suggestions:
Mod tools; will they/should they be added to the Windows 10 version of the game? I bought the MCC before it launched on PC, and played on Xbox for a while. Point is, I own the Microsoft store version, which is not the sharpest tool in the shed. (considerably, the dullest tool in the shed) I’d prefer not to spend another $40 just to get it again on Steam, which almost would be worth the money. (~$15 on sale)
H2A: I’ve already seen answers as to why it hasn’t been receiving as much attention, but maybe, just maybe give the multiplayer a little bit more attention.
“Daily Shop”: Something similar to the exchange except it’s daily (as the name describes), which contains items from previous seasons for those players who maybe aren’t too savvy of the current season. That, or just do that with the exchange I guess.
Special items in Infinite for task completion in the MCC, similar to how Halo 5 had the Helioskrill (which tragically lost its value), and the Mark VI gen 1/scarred helmets.

That’s just about it, sorry if I made this a bit long and a headache to read.

The new season 8 armor customization additions don’t fit with Halo.

Can we have the option to turn-off/not-see particular armors instead of ALL additions?

Halo MCC - Halo 3: Forge. Death barriers/ invisible walls.

Hello, I wanted to provide some feedback on Forge as it currently exists in Halo 3. I was attempting to create a map on the newest map for Halo 3 Icebox and came across some issues. I like how Icebox contains an extended scenery object list like maps such as Foundry and Sandbox. I was excited to try out all the new options available on that map. I will list my issue and possible solutions below.

Issue
-(The map is too small): Foundry has a similar issue whereas when you try to spawn in larger objects you can get forced through the map and seemingly teleported out of bounds and killed. This happens fairly often and there is a bit of a technique to prevent this from happening all the time. The technique involves spawning objects in a relatively open space low to the ground. This becomes problematic later on in a custom maps development because as you populate the map you are slowly choking out that goldilock zone where you could spawn in larger objects safely, eventually getting stuck always getting pushed out of bounds or your object cannot be spawned at all.

Possible Solution
-(An option to Disable barriers/Kill zones): As a player who uses Forge I would like the ability to disable the invisible barriers that hold me in the play space, as well as the kill zones that kill me out of bounds. In being able to control these settings I will be able to fly back into a map with my newly spawned object without reseting my player character to a new spawn location. This also would allow for new creative freedoms for players using forge as they can use locations on maps that are otherwise inaccessible normally.

I thank you for your time, and appreciate all the loving work put into the MCC.

That would be nice. Firstly though I’d like the toggle to actually work for me since I still see these hideous helmets in Halo Reach even though I have new customization disabled.

In the new Halo 3 ODST settings when spawning squads of hunters, even with the Thunderstorm skull, Golden hunter majors never seem to spawn.

Hello. Since Season 8 launched, I have been getting constant lag spikes/frame drops during Halo Reach multiplayer. I uninstalled and reinstalled Halo MCC, but the problem remains. I am on Xbox One S and only have Reach Multiplayer currently installed. Is there any way to fix this?

Also, I have requested numerous times to add Graveyard to Reach BTB Heavies map rotation, but we still do not have it. I don’t understand why we can’t have this map as it was very popular on the 360 Reach.

  • MCC Game: CGB - Feedback: when browsing the CGB, all games with 16/16 players are on top of the list. Sorting based on player count shows either 1/16 or 16/16 games on the top of the list - Additional Feedback: Full games (16/16) should always be on the bottom of the list. This was actually even one of the updates for filtering options that came with the S8 update, but it doesnt seem to work
