Multiplayer Beta – Official Bug Report Thread

Its laggy in big battles

I’ve noticed in the deathmatch game type you cant select a single unit out of all units when you try to micro manage your units, you should fix that. I still notice that it freezes up periodically at the start screen. Other then those issues the deathmatch is a great game type, it reminds me of standard from the 1st halo wars.

> i re-downloaded and installed the beta(which is 13.2 GB) this time when i launched the game it required an update (3 GB) which i think is new.when the game finished updating the file size of the total game did not change and i am stil having the same issues with freezing as if the update did not install at all.

ok so after trying like 10 times i gave up and played some other games.at around 3:00 am local time i tried one more time and it worked i didnt wait or do any button spamming it just worked and entered a match which was plagued by glitches and hitches which i will detail in a later report. the next match things were the same and i was single handingly destroying the competition but then my game froze and when i restarted the game i had the same problems i originally had so cant play the beta now. i tried about 30 times to to no avail.

Upon commencement of the actual battle, the game simply ceases to exist. As though it needs CPR. Of the 9 games I’ve started, I’ve been able to conclude 2 successfully. The other 7, have regretfully perished; screen freezing then “quitting” the application / game. Of the fateful 7, 2 made it into a stage of “Oh Man!”, where the game was close to victorious. 2 others had a throttle body issue with the throttle linkage, requiring a new PCU; terminal within the first 3 minutes. The other 3 were stillborn. Hopefully this can help you. Otherwise, great game, fantastic job fleecing the masses on such an overpriced game that’s not even being released until the week after Valentines Day. For $79.99 you should start enforcing the ESRB ratings.

There’s this random issue where while you’re in a match, you’ll randomly get kicked, and then the menu will freeze. This has happened quite often, usually around the beginning of the match, but it can happen near the end of the match as well.

I just played a game on halo wars 2 and it says i have lost the game but also it says in the overview i have won the game, which is wierd but not weird whats weird my freind is still in the game and winning i mean how was i kicked out of the game when we were winning and it saying we lost help me plis >.>

The beta has lots of problems, it always blocks and find already ended games

Is this second game a good game?

Sometimes when im in game, i get a sudden defeat, and the game just abruptly ends for me, but i stay in a party with my friend

Happens mostly when i command jet pack brutes to jetpack

A few issues I’ve encountered so far with this beta:

  • Waiting for players… Even though all players are present and playing. I am unable to play when this message is on the screen. - Large battles are very, very laggy - All games I’ve played so far have not finished correctly and therefore not counting towards placement matches. Still on zero. - Just “played” a game where I was stuck on the loading screen for 10+ minutes but could hear in-game callouts such as “our base is under attack” and in-game effects such as gunfire. - Getting kicked from servers… a lot. - Got kicked from one game after the “victory” screen. The word “victory” persisted into the next game.
  • When you press start, and options, one of the triggers has the wrong image text to it, it shows B - Also the commandant powers juste don’t work when pressing the trigger indicated in the options - On the find match menu (the one with the playlists) their is an empty bullet point just after roster limit 2 - When using aerial vehicle their are a lot of lag the game is awesome and it seems that the freezing problems have stopped in game =))

I used the Cleansing Beam but it didn’t appear. It still damaged the enemy units though. It was like an invisible ray of death.

  • l’ll like the camera to be zoomed out more please!!! - if possible more units because this is pathetic come on we had more units in Halo Wars if this is it just a beta thing - when you reach the first black screen just Microsoft title shows up have you press any buttons it will freeze the whole game and you have to restart it - also glitch where you get stuck in waiting for other players screen when the games already started so you have to restart it - if you give units too many directions at once you freeze the game have to restart it - servers are open so you can connect to anyone but surprisingly get keep good connection so good job - experiencing little lag but crashing 30% of the each game i played and have to restart it each time

After 4 days of wasted time getting stuck at the initial animation yesterday evening I was able to get to actually play this “beta”.

oddly enough I get only prevent the initial animation and the whole game from freezing by pressing ‘X’ to select a profile, confirming my current profile with ‘A’ and then rapidly pressing ‘B’ to skip the animation. Confirming my profile with the menu button still causes the game to freeze every time.

the ‘@B_Button@’ bug is still there - just not all the time

yesterday I was able to play 2 games. So this morning I was expecting to see 8 placement matches left. Somehow over night the game forgot about the two games I played yesterday showing that I haven’t played at all yet. I wonder if this means I will get an additional Halo 5 Req Pack for playing my first halo wars 2 beta match ‘again’?!

Update
Apparently Halo 5 is smarter than Halo Wars 2 Beta. I didn’t get a req pack for playing my ‘first’ Halo Wars game ‘again’

Hornets in game shoot wherever they want, not at the target

Still having a really hard time getting the game to even load so is my bf on his xbox one

Honestly taking like 20 tries…

I’ve downloaded the update to the beta and this has caused issues to the game resulting in it occasionally freezing as soon as I press start when on the main menu causing me to have to restart the entire application. Other than this occasional error I have encountered no real problems other than a slight lag to the game. (Note: Xbox One 500 Gb console)

Last night during a game where it was showing us clearly winning by over 50 % suddenly the game ended with a defeat screen, even though our bases were fine, our armies were winning and we had over half the points left as the other team

my game is 15 minutes long and my game takes 20 minutes to load…

also their seems to be a problem with the avatar image that does not appear randomly on the right in the menu
and since 4pm ( russian time) their is a constent deconection from the serveur at least 4 times in the past hour mid game
