Extraction? 👀

I got nothin. I keep calling it the wrong thing and I don't know why. Blaming old age.

Can you give an update on what's happening with the FPS issues and stuttering on Xbox? It's in the known issues section of the patch notes with no information about a resolution and is having a huge impact on the feel of the game.

Definitely a high priority and my understanding is that a resolution is in progress. I don't have an ETA at the moment but this and a few other issues are actively being worked on and targeted for release as soon as possible.

Finished it last night as well and gotta say it's been too long since I had a great multi-hour session with some friends. Chasm has really grown on me - had a number of super tense CTF maps and it's so nice having dual snipes in play. I am loving Escalation Slayer- team did a great job IMO. Being down a few tiers and holding off the enemy team as they're charging with Oddballs and coming back to tie and then have a final showdown was exhilarating as hell.

Edit: I have been mixing up Escalation Slayer calling it Extraction for months. I blame old age.

Thanks, already have. Have seen from a few people that there is an issue with emblems coloring in general.

thank you!

and yes, we're tracking a list of emblems we've noticed this happening on so the tickets absolutely help.

hey hey, if you haven't yet, can you hit up Halo Support and let them know? that way they can track things.

Steam will take a bit longer for the update to show up. Hang tight!

Comment

it's coming, hang tight!

Comment

online services are offline atm while we prepare for Season 3.

it should hopefully sync up once we bring the game back online. if not, i'd suggest giving it a whirl on a new playthrough.

why not do it overnight?

this isn't basic backend maintenance...this is an all up major game update. it's simply not feasible to do it overnight.

Comment

hey hey, please keep an eye on the Halo Support twitter and website for info about downtime and outages. there was also an in-game news article in the carousel. :)

the game will be back once Season 3 is online!

This stuff about an extra "Premium Battle Pass" on top of the already paid Battle Pass is confusing and I'm sort of uncertain how it's an improvement.

For example, we have things like this:

Once purchased, the Echoes Within Premium Battle Pass is yours to keep and progress at your leisure—it never expires, and you can switch back-and-forth between the incomplete Battle Passes you own whenever you want.

So does this mean the "normal" (still paid!) Battle Pass no longer has the non-expiry feature, that being exclusive to the Premium tier now? Or is this just badly worded? This needs more explanation.

Also, the Store improvements are underwhelming half measures. This time-limited stuff has got to go. Just let us buy anything whenever we want it. Right now I'm not buying anything because the stuff I want never comes up in the store. Do you want my money or not? And the "super bundles" - okay, more value for money, good...

Hey all - jumping in to clarify the wording for folks. Unfortunately this comes down to having multiple offers available (free, premium, and premium bundle):

  • Battle Pass = refers to the free track and free rewards.
  • Premium Battle Pass = refers to the paid Battle Pass, which never expires, includes the free track, bonus Match XP per match during S3, and now has the Redsteel Splinter coatings.
  • Premium Battle Pass Bundle = refers to the paid Battle Pass, which never expires, includes the free track, bonus Match XP per match during S3, and Redsteel Splinter coatings - plus XP Grants to help you jump ahead in the Battle Pass track.

TL;DR - no changes to previous offers that you're familiar with, just additions with the inclusion of bonus Match XP and the Redsteel Splinter coatings.

Can you confirm if we will see any updates to MCC in 2023? Or, to be even more vague, if there are any plans for any updates?

Edit: I would settle for a "we are considering a plan to potentially maybe update in the future"

i can neither confirm nor deny that there may or may not be an MCC update happening in 2023.

Would hope for a game update too or am I being silly?

a game update would have been communicated ahead of time.

this is purely a Double XP event.
