Anyone want to go for the LASO campaigns? If so, message me. Won't be able to do it until Friday at the earliest, but I have next week off work, so I'll have plenty of time.

 

(Also, is there seriously no way to do co-op matchmaking? :/)

Game should never have been rushed for the anniversary or released in this state :no:

Hour and a half of trying and couldn't join one single game. Absolute shambles.

 

Something tells me the netcode will never be truly fixed :/ Seriously wish I could get a refund, and that says something coming from the Halo fanboy of the forum :(

 

11.21 6:17 PM Update

 

We wanted to provide you with an update on what we?re seeing as a result of yesterday?s content update (CU). We realize that silence and opacity, even when we have nothing new to say, is frustrating. With each change and/or update we make, it takes time for us to capture and analyze the data to determine the tangible impact to the game experience. Additionally, we've already begun work on future updates which will be informed by the data and community feedback we?re seeing from yesterday?s CU.

 

Our data shows that the CU improved things statistically, but we are aware that far too many are not seeing improvements. We continue to work on these issues, with our primary focus being on matchmaking performance. Additionally, we also noticed that the CU inadvertently introduced some new UI bugs, which will be fixed shortly.

 

For now, you will continue to see uneven match-ups and larger than normal team sizes in matchmaking. This is a temporary situation that is caused by the fact that we are allowing more players than normal into a matchmaking session in order to improve overall matching times. We realize this is not ideal, and we will reset those parameters to their expected behavior as soon as our matchmaking improves to a level where players are consistently getting into matches in shorter time frames. Additionally, in yesterday?s patch notes, we announced that parties would no longer be split after a matchmaking session, and we?re aware that this bug has regressed. This issue, along with others, will be addressed in the coming content updates. We?ll be monitoring feedback and data over the weekend, and will provide an update on Monday regarding our progress.

 

Moving forward, we will continue to post the details of our fixes on Waypoint in order to keep you updated with the latest information. Please keep an eye on this thread (http://aka.ms/mcc_updates) for details as we continue to make updates to the title.

Finally tried out MP for the first time just for one match. First attempt, found opponents within a minute or so, then crashed out on loading the map. Second attempt, again found opponents pretty quickly and loaded properly. It was Team BRs which isn't my favorite or forte, but it was pretty cool to be playing it again.

MS have annoyed (to put it politely), Halo fans once again by awarding $15 rebates for new purchases on XBL, while we still don't have a working MP portion of the game.

 

Reddit in particular is really annoyed:

They said they're going to do something to make up for it, but the game's still woefully broken. I'm still encountering quite a few issues (games counting as co-op when in singleplayer, making some achievements literally impossible, for a basic example), and the matchmaking still takes far too long.

They're giving a free copy of Halo 5* to anyone experiencing issues.

Hopefully the latest round of updates helps most people with MP. Plus, MS better do something nice for anyone affected.

I know at least some people are now playing Halo MP without issues, so something must be improving.

      So the card is targeted at headphone users - so the review should be from someone that uses this - maybe I can review a card next time.
    • TerraMaster F2-425 Pro review: a low-powered Intel NAS that ships with AI (OpenClaw)

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a older F4-210 NAS, it is pretty basic, the CPU is not the fastest by a long way and only 1GB of ram, but it works fine. I don't understand the need for A.I in a NAS. It seems like A.i is being shoved into everything, if we like it or not. i will stick to my old Terramsater NAS, thankfully the OS is not being updated. Also, got myself a small NAs built using a Raspberry Pi 5. iy usesd less energy, so stays on all the time. As for the unit above, if it is as reliable as my old Terramaster Nas, then it will be a good unit.
    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.
