We currently recommend players to use Durazno, or the Xbox App (for XB1 controllers) for remapping buttons. When done through those programs, it will remap buttons for the in game menus as well.

Are you guys gonna make official mm. It’s annoying how the only lobby’s are 8v8 ctf half the time and never regular 4v4 unless you set something like that up yourself Quote Share this post Link to post

Is the hit detection any better than it was probably a year or two ago? I remember the last time I played any version of H2 vista I had people standing on my car on sanctuary while I was halfway through my rocks and sometimes they could just eat 4 or 5 BR bursts in a row taking no damage at all and it made playing it pretty awful. I've heard the bullet speeds helped a lot but I haven't actually played it myself 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

With the next update we will no longer be modifying projectile velocities at all. We have a proper fix for bullet hit registration. The whipping snipes and occasionally still hitting even though it appears you missed is just a Halo 2 netcode thing. It will happen in OG H2 as well. Although it may happen less frequently with the next update. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post
Landonio Posted November 11, 2020 Anybody gotten a chance to play MCC on the Series X? If so, thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post
Cursed Lemon Posted November 12, 2020 Better yet, has anyone played H5 on the XSX? I heard the higher-powered system will cure the bad aiming. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

The curves and everything will forever be garbage in H5 but I wouldn't be too surprised if the xsx feels like H5 forge did on PC since that was lacking whatever causes heavy aim on console Quote Share this post Link to post

Shekkles Posted November 12, 2020 The more I play Halo 2 and 3 matchmaking the more I realise how much I love these games and how lucky I am to have been a teenager when they came out and play them in their prime. It's 2020 and I'm still saying "one more game" with my brother in Halo 3. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post
Ethereal Nights Posted November 12, 2020 Played one match of H5 on Series X because I was curious. 10 minutes of hell. But for those who like playing it, I can confirm there's no heavy aim. Congratulations. It'll only take spending another $500 to get the fix you've been asking for. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Cast on my right hand in 09(broken thumb from Football) and all that did was expose me to more Infection maps and gametypes.

Shekkles Posted November 14, 2020 343 should swing their dick around and release MCC on PS4/5 with crossplay. Then fix CE/2 to perfection so all those players come back. I just want the playerbase as large as possible. 1 1 3 Quote Share this post Link to post

Definitely. It compounds when you also consider regional preference like your example of DBFZ (or generally most popular fighters.) I do hope we can both have options like cross play and better support of both communities (classic and modern). Quote Share this post Link to post

Yeah honestly that’s every fighting game. Isn’t it amazing how in the past every video game was on Xbox for tournaments but now days it’s PlayStation Quote Share this post Link to post
Snipe Three Posted November 14, 2020 Its not just fighting games or w/e. Xbox just flat out "lost" the last console war. The xbox one was irrelevant compared to the ps4 due to Microsoft somehow managing to start off that console generation with pr so bad that despite having the better console and online platform for years with the 360 they threw it all away in a couple of pr blunders leading up to release. That's why the PS5 is still in WAY higher demand than the XSX despite Microsoft generally offering better value in all services. The guy that tried to turn Xbox into a digital only media hub may have fatally damaged the Xbox brand long term because its still giving them problems to this day. Seriously think about it everyone was freaking out about online DRM but now Sony releases a digital only edition of the PS5 and nobody says a word because its good value and they spun it correctly while providing alternative options to players. Those dudes at Microsoft somehow managed to mostly lose the business of the casual gamer for going on close to a decade with a few sentences last console generation with a general console idea that Sony is currently printing money with just because Sony knows their audience better and knew how to repackage the same idea in a way that is desirable Even for me that PS5 digital edition is looking pretty nice. $100 cheaper to produce near identical performance (so far) for me as someone that generally only buys games digitally anyways and never resells is a really good deal before you realize I also have a gaming PC and that Microsoft is pushing their first party titles onto PC this generation. As someone who has ran an xbox as their primary console from the beginning I truthfully don't really have a reason to buy one at this point other than nostalgia or maybe something to toss into the living room for people to mess with and that's a crazy position for Xbox to be in For w/e reason the PS5 is currently punching above its weight performance wise (probably just better engineers) and the Xbox is maybe underperforming for its specs making them about the same slightly favoring the Xbox performance wise from everything I've seen. There's a higher ceiling for the Xbox though if someone were to fix whatever is holding it back because it doesn't look to be hardware 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

But ps5 like Nintendo has exclusives that more than likely will never see the light of day on pc. You can’t play Nintendo games on pc without an emulator and 9/10 those suck anyway Quote Share this post Link to post
