The "Red X" is coming back when you die :)

Bravo said this at PAX East

“We’ll have more details at our PAX East panel but would like to confirm that the “X Marker” upon death will be returning, so you’ll soon be notified when and where your teammates are killed by an “X” logo that will appear on your HUD for a brief period. We’re pumped to bring this community request back to life and can’t wait to hear you screaming “ONE SHOT ON MY X!!” in Matchmaking.”

Who else is glad that Bravo joined 343, cuz I’ve seen a lot of improvments.

Sources?

I like BBQ & Burger.

The bit he has in quotes is from the weekly bulletin.

Head to the News section and read the 3/13 Halo Bulletin.

Thats where the information and sources are. Also mentioned there are bi-weekly update scheduales and a new title update focusing on balance. And the addition of specific weapon feedback threads in War Games Feedback.

I’m pleased to hear it return. While I found the ‘X’ on the radar useful, it was not nearly as useful as the on-screen ‘X’.

Thumbs up from me!

Bravo is already at PAX east? He is a bit early :stuck_out_tongue:

He didnt say it at PAX East he said it in the bulletin. They will talk more about the upcoming TU during the MP panel at PAX.

If they replaced Kevin Franklin with Bravo for the panel it would be perfect.

Why, there is no point since weapons de-spawn to quickly.

One Shot on my X

This song pretty much sums up why the return of red Xs is brilliant.

FACEPALM Its so that people can easily see where you died, allowing you to easily make the “on my X” callout so that your teamates know where to find the guy who killed you.

We’re glad you’re excited about the update. Feel free to join the discussion in the Bulletin thread as well!
