There is a new driver from Amd heavily focused on Halo. I installed it after using DDU. I'm not having crashes since and it improved game's performance. No one in here seems to have crashes but maybe this will help someone.
Downloading now. I've had one crash since launch but I'll take any improvement!
343 need to optimize the game too tho.. its really weird that top end GPUs are struggling considering how the game looks, not that it looks bad, but it ain't flight sim or something. Also, it works much better on the X|S than on PC..

Holy fuck the Halo reddit is fucking dumpster fire. Down right rude and nasty with zero respect for the developers. You can tell in some of 343's responses they are getting pissed off. First progression, now playlist outrage. I guarantee once this crisis is over it'll just be something else like customization or the shop that they will turn their vitriol onto. Criticism is perfectly fine, and warranted some cases so things can be fixed or adjusted.
Fucking cunts should be ashamed, its a videogame.

Ok, the game runs so much better with the latest AMD driver... so that was the issues this whole time. Amazing.
I'm getting solid 165 FPS with my 6800x and that's still on "fullscreen borderless"
Bravo MS and AMD

There was Halo online and Halo 5 forge for free.

Were as many people complaining about a free game back then as well or is this a new phenomena?

How would you review the overall game now btw
i know you’ve always been very critical of their take on halo so would love to hear your honest thoughts

If you’re talking about the results page where it says the winner in the top right, that’s just a bug.

Hey guys,
Looking for a little group to crew around with in all the mp modes. I won't chat on mic much but I'm a team player.
Add my Id: ManOfBart or respond here and I'll try to be helpful to your squad.

I'm a very mediocre player, but even I know it's bananas to just walk right by power weapons and items. I mean, active camo for one is basically at least a couple of the easiest kills you'll ever get if you nab it undetected. I "get" ignoring the objective because you just want to shoot shit, but this I don't get.

I wonder if nvidia is going to do something similar with their drivers as well to get the maximum performance out of the game. This whole time I thought it was weird, but I really expected the performance boost to come from the game developers and not AMDs team.
Must be something to do with DirectX maybe, I dunno, but to unlock this kind of performance with a driver update is pretty cool.

I feel like the little desert map ( can’t remember the name) should have 2 mongooses on it. One for each side to add another option at stealing the flag. Could add a little chaos in the outside desert space. I feel like sometimes it’s hard to break the stalemate and that might add more options. Maybe even a turret on each side on those high ledges. I don’t think the mongoose would add too much of advantage either. Would probably hard to pull off an escape with one.

It's got so bad they've had to lock the whole of r/Halo. LMFAO, those guys really should be ashamed of themselves, some Halo "fans" really are their own worst enemy.

Well to be fair longtime halo fans are used to a load of game modes and free customization. Infinite is bare bones. 6 years.
6 years. Infinite should be on the scale of gta v, maybe it will be. But if the campaign is in a similar shape as the multiplayer… o boy.
I’m not defending the assholes who are threatening 343.

Ok so now with the “progression” simply being “play 7 matches a day to go up 1 level”, can I just ask what is even the point of the “progression”? Since people don’t seem to want to actually do challenges, would people just prefer they got rid of the levels and challenges and just unlocked all 100 things as soon as you buy the battle pass?
Like now it’s literally just play 7 games every day that you want to go up 1 level. You don’t need to win, you don’t need to do well, in fact you don’t even need to shoot a bullet. 1 level a day. If there’s literally zero skill needed, just time, why waste everyone’s time and instead just let us pay for the full pack of unlockables? The flame shoulders for examples aren’t a sign of skill anymore, they’re just a sign of number of matches played.

I had one ranked match where it stuck me on a 3vs4 but looking at the players after the match me and the rest of my team were ranked considerably higher than the team with 4 players (and we won slayer by quite a margin despite being short handed). I think it will simply make uneven teams if the skill gulf is too big or it can’t find enough people of a similar skill level fast enough.

No it tells you that the Halo sub reddit has completely lost its mind. It was playlists that caused the major meltdown, progression was so last week, keep up.

You have to understand 343 has ducked up mcc, halo 4-5 content. And now releases a game without campaign co-op, forge, now non working play lists. I would not be mad if we don’t see new maps until next year. But playlists makes or breaks MP. You want to choose to play what you like.
Playlists makes it so everyone can be happy.
This game was given an entire extra year, and released in this state shows how fucked developing it has been.
At this point bring more OG bungie devs back that know halo.
Honestly next few months will make or break. They were literally handed a best case scenario where no one is buying cod or battlefield this year.
People are assholes for sure, ignore those. But people being fed up and disappointed especially if you see that they are same people playing halo:mcc, is totally warranted in not being happy in how 343 has handled this IP for almost past 10 years.

They are literally adding 3more playlist in the next couple of weeks, taking a break them adding more after the holidays. The campaign comes out in a couple of days. The game is totally fine, yet some people want 343's head on a spike because they can't play slayer 24/7. They explained why this is but it's still not enough for them. In a game they have payed zero dollars for.
They also said they talked about delaying the single player but it is ready to go so they decided to realise it now and patch in co-op when it's ready, I know I'd rather be playing it on Wednesday rather than waiting.

I’d rather have a complete game. It boggles the mind with all the issues with players getting temp bans because game crashes mid match. Game crashes constantly for all my friends. I understand it’s a beta, but they did multiple flights?
Also custom playlists have not even worked since launch of MP.
so faith in this is low for a lot.
I think honestly you are right in people acting a little overboard for something that’s free. But honestly I think it’s a lot of fans sick of 343’s handling of halo.
So I think a lot is riding on this needing to get it right. And coming in this state and in pieces for forge/co-op being May 2022. Doesn’t add to confidence that infinite is different situation from halo 5/mcc.

Ask me about my fanboy energy!
That thread has been titiled wrongly. The subreddit was closed because some of the posters started doxxing and sending death threats to 343i community managers. Some of the playlist changes will come out this month but not on December 8 because 343i team is taking a break. This got some people to shouting insults saying "this should be day 1".

Games decent, if your not happy with the content then voice your opinions in a constructive way and move on. If your not happy with the answers and come back in 6 months or a year when the game might feel like more what you where expecting. Not aiming this specifically at you btw.
Not saying the game doesn't have issues, but its going to launch in a far better state than say Destiny 1 or 2 did, and that game is probably the benchmark we should be looking which lets be honest that sets the bar very very low.
I'd also like to add I know they delayed a year but that must have been the hardest year for game development bar none, especially for a multiplayer game.

Found that the other day, much better. They actually talk about the game in a rational fashion lol. Thanks for the tip though.

Every time I get within one win of reaching Diamond 1 the matchmaking puts me in a borderline unwinnable game, the one time I did win it gave me zero rank points after destroying a team in slayer.
I'm not too pissed since playing solo is just an RNG farce to begin with but still...this is just stupid
