The Director

Do me a favor and get a capture of you doing some of the superbounces and upload it to youtube or something.

Keep an eye on this: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status It'll let you know when things are fixed.

I think he actually meant the back tap rather than the whole assassination cutscene.

Lol it's fine. Took me a while to find it as well, and I've been doing this for a while. Anyways, hope everything gets fixed for you guys soon.

We're a community forum (i.e. a forum run by the community for the community), but I'm keeping an eye on it for you guys. http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status XBL has noted that they are having issues with it and say they're trying to fix it. Just keep an eye on the link above for updates.

XBL has reported that it's having issues. You can check their status using the middle link that's above the shoutbox that says: "XBL Service Status". From the look of things, multiplayer should be back up, with a few people still having trouble with it. The primary problem now appears to be achievements. Probably because they decided to have the most achievements ever >.>

It's been a while, but if I remember correctly it was in the Halo 4 campaign where Chief meets the librarian that she tells him that she did.

I started playing Halo on the release of Halo: Combat Evolved, and have played every Halo release with the exception of the 'apps'. Halo: Combat Evolved - Every day after school from release until H2's release, with few exceptions Halo 2 - Got to level 40 on my first XBL account and was banned for superbouncing (I assume, they didn't actually say) Halo 3 - Got a 47 on Team Slayer, a 50 on Team Doubles, and a 30something on Lone Wolf on my second XBL account and got to 30 something in Team Doubles on my current xbl account. Got banned for trying to derank. .-. Halo Reach - Got to Noble Halo 4 - Kind of phoned it in but I got to like SR49. Primarily played custom games and campaign. The primary reason I'm fine with the way H5 looks like it's shaping up is because Halo is a game that's never the same twice. Don't get me wrong, it's been SIMILAR twice, but overall the series is known for drastic changes from game to game. When I played HCE using LAN for X-Box and PC, it was really fun. It had more features than most FPS games while at the same time being easy to figure out. Then H2 came out, and I played the crap out of it. Halo 2 was VERY different than HCE, it was like they were cramming as much into the game as they could. Boarding vehicles, duel wielding, and a bunch of other things that weren't in HCE just made the game better to me. Definitely different, but still excellent. Then Halo 3 came out, and to me and a few other people Halo 3 was kind of disappointing. All they did was take out a couple of features and add equipment, it seemed like. Still fun, but not as fun as H2 for me at least. ODST and Wars came out after that, and they weren't all that bad, but they didn't really feel like full Halo releases. Then came Halo: Reach, which was really fun to play but frustrated the crap out of me. You see, I'm a campaign/lore lover and it felt as if Bungie was phoning it in lore-wise with Reach to me. Not to mention what Reach did to my beloved Scorpion. Swat and Snipers were still awesome to me though, and I even enjoyed a bit of Invasion, Team Slayer, and Firefight. Then Halo 4 came out, and it felt like moving from HCE to H2 all over again. Halo 4 had a ton of things that Reach didn't, and I enjoyed it. Not as much as Halo 2, perhaps, but it was still a fun way to kill time. The thing I didn't like the most about H4 though, was that they took the heaping pile of scorpion remains from Reach and somehow managed to make it even worse. >.> I guess that to me Halo isn't so much about a specific set of controls or features, because I've only seen the game stay even close to the same two times. To be fair though, Halo 2 and Halo 3 were actually originally intended to be the same game but the whole deadline thing... yeah. I digress. To me Halo is a game that changes and evolves. Sometimes it's in a spectacular way (like from HCE to H2) and sometimes not so much (like H3 to Reach). Yet, it's always a good way to make new friends, blow off some steam, and kill some time. There's always going to be features that you don't like, and features that you do like.

Glad you enjoyed the little reply meld thing. Edit button should be on the bottom right and to the left of the [Multiquote]

I actually heard someone complain about it being on the right thumbstick, so maybe not. I looked around for like 12 seconds trying to find the control scheme thread but gave up because I'm lazy, but I'm sure if you find it it will answer a couple of your questions.

Oh geez... RNG being Mafia would explain SO much.

Much better this time, thank you. Anyways, this is a community forum. Run by the community for the community. Which is a good thing for you because you would have been immediately banned from waypoint for that earlier post. To answer your concerns, the glitches ARE in the multiplayer, under the H2 Classic playlists. I'm not entirely sure if they are in custom games or not, but they are in multiplayer. They are not under the Anniversary playlists, they are only in the Classic playlists.

You might be right about having to complete the level to get the skull, but you are definitely right about there being an issue with achievements. M$ is working on it so hopefully it will be fixed soon. Anyways, I'm going to redirect you to this thread so we can have it all in one place: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/38312-multiple-achievement-related-issues/

Going to redirect you to this thread: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/38312-multiple-achievement-related-issues/ It appears to be a bug, hopefully they'll get it patched soon. XBL has just been crazy since the release, so that might be a part of the issue as well.

I DO! Basically they are having some issues with the servers or somesuch. http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status That link is also in the shoutbox banner.

Pretty much everybody is having the issue right now. We even had the issue while trying to stream using Twitch last night. They'll probably get it fixed pretty soon.

It's no problem, as you can tell from Twinreaper's response it's a pretty common mistake. I'll go ahead and lock the topic for you.

Had that problem with Halo 3. Had a bit of it for a few hours after H4 was released as well, due to server clog though.

Topic solved and since there is no more discussion to be had, topic locked.

Unfortunately this is pretty much falling on deaf ears as we are a community forum. Which means we are run by the fans for the fans. No one here works for 343i or is affiliated with them. Also, since the beta is being released so early (as H5 isn't going to be released until Holiday 2015 and the Beta releases next month) it's more likely that 343i will be listening to feedback. So, play the beta and tell 343i what you hate about it. Or don't. Whatever. The official 343i website is halowaypoint.com try posting there. I'm gonna go ahead and lock this thread.

This is actually a pretty common issue. It happened with the H3 release for like, 18 hours. My advice is to play campaign first. The issue should be sorted by the time that you finish campaign.

Oh, well in that case... DIE MAFIAN SCUM!
