Alright this is my second and LONGEST post regarding the many glitches I have encountered throughout warzone and warzone firefight so here it goes in a numbered list!
- Reqs not loading: Alright, I have found that on countless matches I will open a pack before starting and my Reqs are fine. Right after the game begins and we clear out the home base I go to the nearest Req station and find that HEY! you thought you could pick up a silenced AR well the jokes on you, your reqs wont load. Because of this I am stuck with a basic AR and Magnum for the whole game as well as no power weapons, no vehicles, etc. - Bosses: I find it funny that before the firefight update your game depended on who got what boss kills, now on maps like escape from A.R.C. nobody cares about the grunt jockeys. However I do have to admit that on maps like battle of noctus the bosses are well placed in positions that govern bases and vehicle spawns. If you could imply a system for maps like A.R.C. that make people more willing to go for bosses. - Warzone assault: Don’t get me wrong, this mode is great for farming, but that’s about it. The game mode is HEAVILY favoring defense here’s why I say that. SPAWNS: Alright so for the first base spawns are usually fine (Except dispatch) But on the second base defense spawns inside or next to the base while attackers spawn at or behind the previous base and don’t even get me started on the core and how broken those spawns are. OVERTIME AND DEFENSE: This is a balancing proposition so here I go, for an overtime it’s quite simple: have defense kill all attackers in the base to secure it and if the attackers all die the game ends. For capturing bases you should implement a system that goes on player count, the team with the most people on the objective is the team that is capturing or defending the base. DONE. - Spawn grapes: Alright this is probably my final note but I have noticed that I among many people spawn in somebody’s line of fire more often then not and you can guess what happens, from getting splattered to being sniped, I have no time to react.P.S. you need to fix vehicle spawns in firefight. One time I was stuck in the spawning screen for 1:40 for spawning a ultra ghost.

To add to Warzone Firefight glitches, I have not seen it listed elsewhere as of yet on here, but,
- Skipping the respawn timer
If you select one vehicle and then another, different, vehicle while still in the same respawn timer, you will skip the timer and spawn in the second chosen vehicle.
- Skirmish at Darkstar. The Soldiers in the Mantis’ will randomly change into an assault rifle and be at human level. I have only seen it happen to the one at the center of the map. After a few heavy hits to it, it goes invisible and changes to the assault rifle, which, can only be damaged if you fire directly at the assault rifle. (The enemy still packs a mean punch like the mantis, though.) It is impossible to win when this glitch occurs.
Those are the only two, legitimate glitches, I have come across for right now concerning firefight.
Alright I found a new problem: Widened search parameter
- Most of my team was afk/afc at the start this led us to take twice as long to clear our base and even at the end of the match some of them weren’t booted. - Due to my teams “composition” the inactive players were farmed for kills. - This lead to the enemy having high req levels early on and they had pushed us back to our core - Unfortunately the enemy was all 100+ some even at 149 so they had almost if not all reqs unlocked and stockpiled - At about 8:00 we were pounded by a swarm of phaetons and mantises and they stomped us and took out our core343 Please, just because I chose widened doesn’t mean I chose unbalanced

Dad
Ayy. I found 1 more bug
Mission: Victory boosters.
Yeah, I don’t know why but they don’t seem to work for me.
Please fix this.
Sincerely, Dat boi.
I found an out of map glitch that has apparently been around for a long time on escape from A.R.C.

Between blue base and the closest armory you can simply crouch walk underneath the map. On one match when the enemy had all of the bases I was killed by a guy who was hiding underneath there. (I got the last laugh though because I ground pounded him to fall to his death on my next life).

SHHHHHH!! This one actually sounds helpful, don’t tell 343i!
So, 343… you guys did a good job you know? You listened after the beta, you asked people what they wanted… you did things the right way. So please, I hope to God you’re listening now. Warzone sighs Warzone was probably what I was most excited about when queuing at midnight for Halo 5. The totally new idea made me really excited. I watched every IGN video on it and listened to every commentary. I then played it.
To give some backstory, me and my friends used to play Halo constantly. It was our favourite past time and honestly it still is mine. However, my friends soon began to mock me for clinging on to Halo as 343 took over but I kept telling them that you guys could do it; make a good game. Those friends now play Call of Duty… I desperately don’t want to but I feel like you’re forcing me.
I’ll be honest here, I don’t care if it makes me less masculine, I have cried, because of Warzone. After coming top of my team for 5 consecutive games yet losing each one because despite using all my ammo, one guy off the enemy team gets the last shot. After spawning in a Banshee Ultra only to be one shotted the second I spawn. I used to think of Halo and smile because of the fun memories and thoughts it gave me; it was more than a game. Now you have made me stop playing. You have killed it for me, in my opinion you have been so focussed on creating the ‘next big E-Sport’ that you forgot about fun. Why can’t you regen when running from people? I understand sprint wasn’t in Halo 1,2 or 3 however at least I stood a chance. Now whowever lands the first bullet has to win. Even if I take advantage of the brilliant new movement, I just get gunned down by someone else. There is no counter, no chance. I run, I take one bullet. I die. This whole system makes me want to stop playing and leave the game. However I can’t due to the lack of mid-game matchmaking, forcing me to stick out the demoralising game of being repeatedly crushed by the enemy team. Instead of being annoyed, I’m upset 343. Please bring back the Halo spark we loved, Halo used to be for all, I was a 12 year old playing the Xbox I saved up for a whole year to buy, just for Halo and yet I could still have fun. Now? Now you make me feel like you should either be a professional, or stop playing. Don’t make me pick the latter, please.
Why is the respawn time so long?
