Saving A Film...What Happened?!

Maybe I’m missing something but did 343 not include the option to just hit a button to save an entire film? They don’t honestly expect us to record the entire match during playback do they?

Also, why no temporary saved films like 3 or Reach? Theater has been a big letdown for me.

I hope I’m just missing something obvious but I cant find anything.

you can still record stuff. its just that the ui is horrible in this game and hard to figure out

I know that, but why cant I save an entire film with the press of a button? how is this not in the game?

I also noticed when saving a clip just now that the announcer voice isn’t present after it is saved

oh no we need to press more than one button :o halo 4 sucks. -_- seriously how lazy have people got

I don’t like how it only saves the last game you played.

Do you want to sit through a 12 minute video in order to record the whole thing? if it makes me lazy because I want an option that was in previous games, then call me lazy!

you said you wanted to save an ENTIRE film with a button press ? it literally moved from pressing the ‘x’ button in reach (i think) to the ‘y’ button in halo 4. no idea why your talking about watching and recording the whole film :confused: . the option is already there js

From the menu/lobby hit start, go down to the bottom set of options where your controller settings and that are. If you scroll to the end of that there is a file browser menu, which has a tab for temporary history, you can hit Y on games in that list to bring up the option to save them. Simples… (kinda)

Just tried that, there is still no option to just save the entire film.

edit I will try what zero mike suggested.

Mike you rock bro. But such an odd place to save the film, you know? I’m sure I’m not the only one who couldn’t find where it was!

can you watch clips on watchlist

lol…
srsly?
yall too lazy to look for the damn option.

its been there the whole time…and its not “hard to figure out” if you SEE the damn screen.

We’ll he has a point, if you aren’t willing to press 2 or 3 buttons, then that’s pretty bad. Go to theater and select the film you want to save, then press Y, then go down to save.

If you want to see a list of temporary games, go to Theater, then when you click select a film it’ll come up with a list of maps. Click the right thumb stick and it’ll go to another screen where you can see your temporary history etc. To save a film, just press Y on the one you want and press save.
