azcityslim Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm new to gaming, altough I'm 70 plus, I have found xbox 1 and Halo. Great games. Having said this, I started playing Halo CE and have gotten through episodes 1,2,3. In #4 I have run into, what can only say is a hack job. At a terminal that is suppose to unlock continuning the game all I get is transfered to the Halo Channel. I have tried several times to get passed this "hack" but nothing works, even xbox tech's couldn't help. I have tried several sites trying to get to Halo support, but cannot find a web site of telephone #. Anyone help.....Thanks.

Guts Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Well I'm sorry to say....thats intentionally happening. Every time you access a terminal it launches the Halo Channel and you watch the video there. It's a pain you know but that's how it works 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unease Peanut Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Wrong use of the word "hacking" my friend To promote the Halo Channel abit more 343i ( the developer of this game and the channel) placed the terminal video's in the Halo Channel for you to watch there. It's all supposed to happen so don't worry. I'm surprised Xbox tech support couldn't tell you this though... You'd think they'd know this stuff... They never fail to disappoint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 ^ "Hello there this is Xbox live tech support who may I help you?" "Could you tell me what 343s official community site is?" "343 community forum""Thanks" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Of Harts Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Have you tried actually waiting for Halo Channel to boot up after activating the Terminal? Because if you do you may just see that terminal you're trying to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Director Posted March 3, 2015 Report Share Posted March 3, 2015 Additionally, the terminals are not required to continue the game. They are just extras, so you can ignore them entirely if all you're wanting to do is progress in the game. If you're wanting to get the achievements for the terminals, all you have to do is find them and wait for the Halo Channel to load up and watch the video. Once the video's done, you can then press your X-Box Button and go back to the game. Also, props on being 70 and still playing Halo. You are officially the second oldest player I know (the first one is 82, and that's my great uncle). Have fun, and feel free to ask any other questions you may have.

Halo6 Follower Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 Good to see this thread making a return. @Drizzy_Dan @@igottsondabrain That is a good point, and one that 343 overlooked. My suggestion would to try and find it on Youtube and see if one of the videos has CC. But apart from that I don't know sorry mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
