I’ve been playing halo 5 for quite some time now and there are several problems that are still there.
One of my biggest problems are req packs. I know they are not getting rid of the system, but will they ever allow us to sell more than one at a time? It’s frustrating.
Way too often I get thrown into already started games, I wouldn’t mind if it was between round but it’s always when the boss is untouched (or the core is already destroyed) and there are 30 seconds left.
On arena I spawn next to enemies and the game is unbalanced, sometimes I kill 30 people in a round and still lose, sometimes I kill 1 person in a round. It’s frustrating and it doesn’t matter how good or bad I play, it’s only about if my team is not completely trash.
And the WORST thing, the game crashes all the time, not just for me but also for my friends and it doesn’t matter if it’s xbox one, xbox one s or xbox one x, or if the game is digital or a physical copy, the game freezes.
Some people have said this is the Halo with the best multiplayer, but I don’t agree, also, by far the worst campaign.
I hope they fix these problems if not, well, I’m not playing anymore.

No
Been like that since the game came out so not getting fixed. My advice would be to stay in the postgame lobby so it reduces your chances of a JIP game.
Depends on what you’re playing. Social has looser skill matching so that’s normal and ranked has tighter skill matching, but sometimes you can get mismatched games due to low population.
It’s been like that for a long time so it’s not likely to get fixed. My advice would be to wait a little bit before quitting the build since sometimes the freezes don’t last very long.

You can sell REQ’s in bulk through Waypoint if you get the “Sell REQ’s” tool from the Chrome Web Store. You can’t do it in-game though.

Sadly I don’t think there’ll ever be an official way to sell them in bulk. yeh the game is getting worse with the bugs, oddly I’m even finding more bugs lately that wasn’t there a year ago and the crash/freezing does seem to be more common lately, noticed a lot of time-out errors too that seem to kick me out of a game or let me join while the error claims I couldn’t. Also have to agree with you about the multiplayer too since it’s pretty bad, found the campaign pretty underwhelming since they kept making us fight the Warden over, over plus hate fighting the Promethean’s since there not fun to fight against.

Weird thing is at launch I don’t remember having these many bugs compared to what we have now, I can’t even think of the last time 343i took the servers down for maintenance, it’s kind of obvious that the servers are getting worse and it’s not just matchmaking since I let a friend play on my xbox recently, loaded up custom games search’s and oddly it was mostly dead but that could be either to low population or the servers are getting worse.
It would be great if they decide to upload a patch, but in the real life, I don’t think so…
I think I will stop playing. If they don’t care enough to fix these problems then I don’t think it’s worth my time, I hope they do a better job with the next Halo, I personally will wait to see, I’m definitely not buying it day one

They’ll likely fix the game when there’s another big Xbox hardware update and Microsoft forces 343i to “revisit their entire portfolio.”

No I wouldn’t count on it. Games like fortnight can get constant regular updates but 343 is too busy trying to fix their broken master chief collection that’s taken 4 years since release and it’s still being worked on. Halo 5 had a lot of potential. Gameplay is actually decent although they had major aiming bugs for the first year or two. But the servers have always been poor. Then experimenting with weapons made things worse. I think players would prefer a consistent reliable game over a broken one with a few new features. But who knows. I’ll probably get banned now for typing this haha. 343 doesn’t like me.
I just wish they would fix the BTB lobby glitch. The rest are aggravating, but not necessarily game breaking in my opinion. Except of course the game crashing after matches, but I’ve learned to live with that

I don’t see how these are “bugs” the matchmaking will struggle if there aren’t enough players in the pool to choose from. That’s just common sense.
As far as the req packs go yeah it’s pretty lame we can’t sell back more than one item at a time in game but there is a chrome extension that let’s you sell back multiple items.
With joining in progress if you wait out the intermission you usually jip a lot less.
With spanwing in arena getting spawn killed as always been a thing. It may happen a bit more often in H5 due to most maps are kinda small while Spartans can travel more distance in less time.
With skill balance the Halo population isn’t very high so it has to make games with the available players. With H5 being kinda old and not liked by a lot the majority playing now are going to be really good players who like the game.
My game never crahses. Although I do get the screen freezes in the lobby after games and what not and yeah it’s pretty frustrating. A time or two I had to just hard reset my Xbox because the game froze long enough I wasn’t sure if it was coming back. Sadly 343 hasn’t acknowledged any issues with H5 that I know of so odds are they aren’t looking to fix any of the issues. Their attention to detail isn’t very good with Halo. I can agree as much as I love Halo odds are I won’t by H6 on launch. They haven’t made a fully functional Halo fps game yet on Xbox one and that kinda says a lot.

It’s a small team plus another company that’s working on it. I’m more surprised that you focused on that instead of Infinite which is the main game that’s potentially coming out in a couple years and the more logical reason why the H5 updates would come to an end.

The postgame menu screen freezing is a bug.

Haha yeah that’s so terrible. I don’t play much anymore because I came home for lunch one day had an hour lunch break and was only able to play 1 game and it started mid game down 40.
This game is played with bugs and issues. It’s really quite embarrassing that people were paid to make this.

Ok so truok003 (after your ban) I just gotta say man it’s not that they don’t like you it’s not a conspiracy is just that this industry is in many ways a service industry much like any food service establishment. Would you go into McDonald’s and loudly complain to other customers in front of employees that the food is terrible? No man you would be kicked out. We know there are a few issues no game is perfect. Don’t be the guy trying to scare people off of the McDonald’s line it ruins everyone’s experience and gets you kicked out of those beautiful golden arches. If you don’t like the fries that’s fine many of us still do. Find a corner of the forums that you are satisfied with enjoy that menu item instead.
… Ok so it’s 3am here and I think I’m hungry but the point still stands. Don’t be a victim of your own choices be considerate and don’t enter a man’s house and insult him.
IKR i made a forum post about it as well(and i bet many othwrs besides us) its stupid how i cant even play 1 SINGLE CUSTOM GAME, JUST 1 and freeze when the game ends(if not before it ends) and have to restart my h5 after every game i play that is not ranked Arena. But of course 343 being 343 and ignoring the entire problem because competitive play isn’t affected by it smh…but then we are halfway through 2k18 so maybe they might fix this problem in 2k19…you know…4 years after launch…like they did with mcc
I think if its not fixed at this point it wont be. or maybe ill be proved wrong.
That post game lobby freeze will forever haunt me tho, especially when you are with a big fire team.
And when it doesnt liad 1 person into the slot for the game to start… sigh
