Quality of life improvements (its 2020 ffs) XBONE

So sorry for reviving old topics from 2018 but its still an issue to this day that seriously needs to be addressed to make this game tolerable for console players.

#1 unstable custom game lobbies (in menu screen):
Every single time I try and get a public custom game lobby going its all thrown down the toilet when the game is brought back to the lobby because either myself or 80% of the lobby will have their halo 5 freeze and crash.

#2 lacking the option to kick players from your custom game while its in progress:
So if a troll joins your custom game and just starts screwing with everyone your options are try and tolerate their bs or end the game to kick them.
But guess what as mentioned above doing this will mean having an 80% chance of crashing and losing all your players in the lobby.

#3 host cant set players teams:
Why is it the host of their own game cant set what players team colours are…? Your only choice is to ask people to change? This really makes trying to get some game modes working properly a real pain in the a##

Please please for love of all that is holy even if you cant fix the buggy af menu lobby freezing then give us in game kick options so we can avoid having to go through 2 loading screens and a highly likely crash that just makes the lobby “Carter out”

If this could be addressed it would be really appreciated as at the moment all playing halo 5 does is make me worried what annoying issues halo infinite’s gonna have.

Side note, does anyone know how to move objects up and down in forge mode with precision. At the moment having to press b and a for up and down with precision mode on still moves the object way too much forcing me to go up down up down up down until it finally decides to line up nicely.

Something else that would be GREAT would be an overhaul of the req system specifically opening packs and selling unwanted items. The “Press x to sell” thing doesnt work. Every single pack I open I cannot sell unwanted items correctly. I can work around the problem if I attempt to sell then cancel an item i do want repeatedly. Sometimes for as long as half a minute of sell cancel before it lets me sell unwanted items. I do not even understand how or why its blocking me from selling unwanted items, but the things I do want the sell option works immediately first time every time.

Its like as if this game is insisting i use the junk heap generic plasma pistols that every single generic round 1 grunt drops when it dies. I am only pretty early into gathering req unlocks, but if i am forced to sell/cancel spam on wanted items to sell unwanted items for every single pack i open. This is going to be an extremely awful experience.

The not being able to sell glitch is only on items you have zero of in your inventory. If you even have 1 in the inventory then you will have no problem selling them when you get them in the req packs. It’s been around since day one of the game and is a pain.

Honestly I don’t even acknowledge the req packs anymore, if inifinite is without them I wont really be upset. Bring back Halo 3 or Reach’s armor system.

I just want to be able to play a halo 5 custom game and have some control as the leader without having to end the bloody game and risk all the freezing and crashing :confused:

I would not be sad to see the req system go away either. Its just an rng slog untill you finally unlock all the desired stuff. Even load out weapons are stuck behind hundreds of generic and useless things like emblems and the like

So thats what it is? no wonder it only seems to target the things I do not want. I prune my reqs to onnly those things I actually use because I like the refund points annd most importantly I like being able to quickly jump to the desired vehicle or power weapon. having a dozen or more junk slots thsat I never use clogging up my req screen each time is an awful idea and something I try hard to avoid. Cant believe that after so many years such a bug has persisted.

Halo 3 is still my favourite armor system to date, having players unlock armor via achievements was awesome. You could actually tell if the armor someone was wearing was actually hard to attain. Now its just sit there and play the req pack slot machine. Even with the large amount of armor we get in the game I just look at it all like I dont care.

Take me back to the days where if you saw someone with the katana chest peice or recon armor and you’d be like damnn.
Or even the scout armor since you needed to get a splatter with a mongoose in ffa to unlock it haha
