Would really like to see the individual team colors come back. Much easier to identify than the standard red vs blue. Halo Wars had a color scheme that made each player their own color.
My friend and I queued launched into a game together his game fully crashed mine locked me in the waiting for players screen while the enemy team was able to continue to play. i couldnt pause to leave or anything. one of the enemy players left im not sure why he left. just wanted to let you know that that happend.
Would be really nice if we could implement the ability to rejoin the game if the game crashes. This was a problem in the first game that was a major setback. Even if you don’t have and AI controlled base if the person could at least come back and be a bit behind it would be better than having to fight with a player down that may not have wanted to quit. Or make it so the base is only destroyed if the player chooses the resign option. AI would be best but anything would be better than what it is now.
Covenant hero constantly glitches or gets stuck to where he becomes useless. Won’t respond to commands or even attack enemy units, just sits there and dies.
im getting tired of destroying the other team but still end up getting a loss because of that garbage insta defeat -.-t id be a platinum 5 by now smh
Hi, reporting another bug.
In some cases when start the match, the screen just show something like this “{Waaiitiing foor playeers}” and i can’t control anything.
I moved my camera from my main base to my second base and the ground around it was a black square, when I move my camera away and back again it was gone.

> We’ve launched an update to the Halo Wars 2 Multiplayer Beta that should resolve hitches when loading into the main menu and addresses the default language issue.
No such luck. The game is still freezing and crashing for me.

Please help me feel it was worth my investment.

> Bugs:

> - Game freezes at start for some people – many supposed “fixes” such as waiting a long time, or pressing X to sign in have been suggested, but in my experience, it seems to just come down to dumb luck. Maybe remove the mandatory tutorial? I’ve tried everything from restarting the app, to signing in again, to powering off the xbox and unplugging it for 30 seconds, to uninstalling it and downloading it again from scratch. Still can’t seem to get back in.
> - Problems “syncing data” – this seemed to freeze my game too.
> - Game in different language for some people.
> - Game crashes mid-game for some people. I’ve been in 5 games out of 11 now, where either my game crashed, or my ally’s game crashed, leaving me (or them) to do a 1v2 game.
> - The heal spell doesn’t always show the green circle when deployed.
> - The mac blast doesn’t always show the red drop line before firing.
> - Sometimes the warthog appears to be shooting in the wrong direction.
> - There have been many times I’ve told units to do something, and they don’t do it. For example, I tell a unit to capture a domination point. It starts doing it, then just walks away and stops.
> - There have been many times I’ve told units to use the Y ability, and they don’t do it.
> - When capturing the top two points on the map, if a unit is alone, he gets tripped up over the terrain, and can’t reliably capture the point.
> - Unit pathfinding sometimes doesn’t work. You tell them to move across the map, and they get stuck on the terrain, and just stop.
> - Sometimes I hit the RB for local units, and nothing gets selected until I hit the button a 2nd or 3rd time.
> Feedback:
>
> - The artwork needs some serious help, the original looks WAY better than this one. Buildings, Units, they all need to have their artwork improved, it’s scary to play this and feel like it was done by 1st year college students. (no insult intended) It’s just too cartoonish. The tanks in particular look ridiculous.
> - You can’t clearly see which units are attacking what. We need to see projectiles, especially need to see the canister shell. It’s difficult to tell whether or not you’re going to win a battle, to know if you need to stay or retreat.
> - The camera movements are sluggish, and not very pinpoint accurate. It feels almost glitchy and jumpy. The controls are where HW1 shined brilliantly, and this one still needs help to get there. It’s difficult to target specific enemies and units, there used to be a bit of magentism to unit selection, that doesn’t seem to be here and needs to be.
> - Allow us to leave the circle menu by switching to a different base, or by pressing local (or all) units. It slows me down by having to press B to leave the circle menus.
> - Thank you for adding a few new units, but still keeping the simplicity of the game mostly in tact. I’m excited to see how well these new units mix in.
> - Domination is not a good game type for the beta, it forces you to rush, but people need time to sit back and learn the game first before being forced into a try hard rush fest. Can we have a standard game mode, or at least a single player skirmish against the AI?
> - The Y button needs to be visible when I’m able to use it.
> - The mini map needs to show where my ally is looking
> - Can we move leader powers back to Up on the D-pad, and move global rally point to the L bumper, and quick camera movement back to L Trigger?
> - Why is the population limit so low? And unit population totals so high? The population system in HW1 was perfect, I didn’t see a need to adjust it?
> - We need to be able to see a visible difference in the units when the tech level increases. I need to know by looking at the unit what level it is. I don’t think we can even click on it to see right now, can we? This is extremely helpful for knowing when to engage in battle, or when to hold off and tech up.
> - Can we see post game statistics?
> - When you queue multiple upgrades, they need to be highlighted so you can see they’re in the queue.
> - We need alerts when a battle is taking place. It sucks to look over and realize your army was destroyed without warning.
> - We need to see a building percentage when clicking on a building that’s in the process of being built.
> - The Warthogs don’t move like Warthogs… HW1 had this down perfectly.
> - Flaring the screen for your ally to see, doesn’t work properly, I need a sound or something to help make that flare a bit more obvious. Sadly, many players play without a mic, and this is the only form of communication they have.
> - Base hitpoints need to be more visible. It’s difficult to see how close you are to killing the base.
> - Economy - Why did you introduce more forms of currency and “points” in this game? HW1 was simple, the economy worked well. You’ve taken the game and needlessly overcomplicated it, when the true hallmark of the original game was in its simplicity.

This is the closest I have seen to everything that I wanted to list.
The only thing that I would add is that the units have no personality.
At this point, I don’t even care about using a hero. And until we get deathmatch, we won’t really know how many things work.
But the OP pretty much nailed this one. The only thing I don’t agree with is I actually like the multiple resources. It adds much needed depth to the game. It sucked when someone took out your base with 2 generators because you were screwed if you were playing a good player. But other than that, I agree with the OP.
Number of UI issues that need to be addressed.
-Feels clunky in general.
-Selection wheels are far too sensitive and give no indication to where you’re pointing to if there isn’t an option in the slot you’re hovering over.
-We need a progress meter on buildings in the process of being built.
-Enemy building health bars are either nonexistent, or too hidden to recognize.
Miscellaneous bugs:
-When recycling a building (at least while it’s being built), the leader will say an enemy destroyed one of your buildings.
-Selecting local units will rarely happen with only one press of the right bumper.
-Numerous times today, my chieftain leader has become unresponsive when in combat and will not listen to orders to run or attack a different unit.
-After large lag spikes and frame drops, unit combat animations will often stop showing on my screen (i.e. can’t see wraith mortars or banshee bombs).
-Very common screen tearing when switching through base locations.
-Troop pathfinding can occasionally get units stuck on a Cliffside when being told to go to the valley beneath it.
Oke so i set my language and location to english and the UK now it works for the freez at the menu where you have to press start i just logged in again by pressing x hope that this works for anyone else having this problem
Everytime I try to play it freezes on me about 6 minutes into the game. Haven’t been able to finish a single game yet
screen freezes after pressing the menu button and during tutorial video, match gets stuck on loading screen but game can be heard going on in the background, the picture of the marines before going the game it looks like someone put a sticker of a brute on it, once I could not see the bullets my units were firing and could not see the curser, the empty base location in front of where you start one of the slots goes under ground and you can not see the white outline.
The connection to the servers is awful. I dont think I am having issues but I am always waiting for players. Only when I am in a party is when I dont have to wait for players. Other than the connection issues the game is awesomeness.
looking for team mate that wont leave me and that knows how to play
Beta still Crashes and can’t get past the main menu 
FTR Lucio add me.

This is a concern I want to raise too. **Are we using Peer-2-Peer or Azure Cloud (“Dedicated” Servers)?**I ask this because when a game starts I am sitting on a screen saying “waiting for players” for about a minute or two before they are in.
Now I have a 1GigE connection (1000Mbps Up/Down) so that may be the reason or it may not. I’m frankly ready to look at my NetFlow to see if its peering or going to Azure.
The Game has great potential. It feels very Halo, as I have played every Halo title out there, since CE.
At this current point, knowing that it is a beta, I am still a little worried about a few bugs. At times, unit movement, especially when engaging enemies seems a little static. Auto engagement to threats is insufficient. Certain weapons and abilities face errors in displaying at all when used throughout the game.
I hope this helps.
A true fan,
