Noticed something tonight

I noticed something odd with my Xbox One and Halo MCC and H5 multiplayer. When I’m playing MCC’s Halo CE, my reticle turns red and I start shooting, but the first 3 shots don’t register, as evidenced by 3 headshots on a Grunt not killing him, or 3 shots on an Elite that don’t show his shields shimmering upon being hit . Could this be happening in H5 multiplayer too, and the reason I can’t win a close-quarter duel even when I’m using the SMG?

Or is 343 just screwing around with my gameplay speeds?

Noticed something else happening too in the past few days. I would Spartan charge an enemy from behind or the side and he doesn’t die, but I get Spartan charged from the front and I die. Also, enemy Spartan charges me and hits the wall that should have blocked the charge, but he still kills me. I hit a wall next to enemy and nothing happens.

What the hell is going on with my gameplay, 343??

I think it’s just you blaming the game for what you’re doing wrong. try recording a game clip so we can see whats happening

I played a game on Empire the other night, and I put 8 headshots with the DMR (I was counting) on an enemy that was standing still before he died, yet I get killed with 3 or 4 shots on me anywhere.

Common problems acclimated with lag and latency
youre
probably connecting to a distant server
where are you playing from?

Yeah man we’ll have to see game clips for proof. Otherwise it just seems you’re just mad because you’re game hasn’t been up to par.

I’m Platinum 1 and have gone all the way up to Platinum 5 before ranks reset. My game is definitely up to par when things aren’t lagging. My FiOS connection gives me 58 Mbps down, 60 Mbps up, and 79ms latency. I’m in Long Island, NY, but my friends in Brooklyn and Manhattan have no problems with lag. Just wondering why I do, and it’s constant, too. Some games I can’t miss, and other games I can’t hit a -Yoink!- thing. Hits on an enemy don’t register as shown by a starburst coming off the reticle with each hit.

The internet is not strong with this one
Well, thats what I’d assume

clips or it didnt happen my friend

It sounds like you’ve had a visit from Laggy Mclag.

Are you using the “Focused” setting?

343 are screwing with your gameplay, best way to avoid this is wear a tin foil hat and pledge allegiance to the Illuminati

Its LAG,LAG and more LAG. I just finished a marathon gaming session for 12 hours every day last week from Thursday thru Saturday. There were multiple instances of very bad lag. There are also multiple instances of disconnects. I’m surprised I didn’t get banned. Some matches I can land every single shot while others I could not hit the broad side of a barn at point blank range. This is lag. It sucks, but Halo is not the only game that is affected by it.

No but it’s affected by it more then any other and by far the worst.

Is it honestly lag issues? Cause I’m starting to wonder if all of these lag issues are a sweep-it-under-the-rug solution on behalf of 343i. I have never experienced lag in a game that affects my actually aiming and hit markers so badly as I do now with Halo 5, and you’re telling me, though I can download five different copies of Deadpool in less than 5 minutes, I can’t play a complete Halo match without some kind of lag? Incredible.

I never have problems, stop playing Halo with McDonalds wifi.
