[Locked] MCC Campaign Feedback - January

• MCC HALO GAME: Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3 ODST
• ISSUE : Frame rate drop, Connection Issues, Loading times.

• MCC HALO GAME: Halo: CE
• ISSUE/FEEDBACK: Please remove Recession Skull from LASO Playlist
• REPRO STEPS: N/A
• ADDITIONAL INFO: Halo: CE is already difficult enough. I know the game was easier to run on LASO before more skulls were added to LASO Playlist in CE. Most Players who do run LASO on this game can barely complete Truth and Reconciliation (some even taking 10 hours in a single run for one level). The % for LASO CE Completion is 0.05% in almost 5 years. That’s insane. It should be hard but removing this skull will still make this a challenge but remove one less element players have to juggle.

• ISSUE/FEEDBACK: Hello, 343 Industries. I'm sure you have received this request ad nauseam but I am afraid I must put my foot down. The Scoring system needs to be completely redone. It has placed me in a Catch 22: in order to meet the par score on each mission, I must play on harder difficulties (i.e., Heroic or Legendary) with multple skulls activated, but when I do, I repeatedly die, which further increases the time counter for the mission and depletes my score. This was not the case with the original scoring system in Halo 3, ODST, and Reach, and it is time for a return to form. It is frustrating and downright infuriating at certain times to try to meet and surpass the par score only to have my score penalized and all points for my kills dropped to zero after a certain amount of time has passed. The zero multiplier needs to be removed to allow players a fair chance to accumulate points and unlock achievements pertinent to campaign scoring. The score depletion must also be removed for maximum point retention. The skull multipliers must be reset to their individual values. I'm sorry to say this, but that was a mistake which negatively affects the final aggregrated score. Instead of multipliers of 1.1x, 1.2x, 1.3x, etc, they should be their standard specific values consisting of 1.5x, 2x, and 3x (e.g., for the Iron skull). With this return to form, it would be vastly easier to unlock the achievements for surpassing the par score for each of the individual missions. I will personally no longer pursue these achievements until serious lasting modifications have been made the scoring system so that they resemble their original counterparts. This has been a serious issue since this game's original release; I hope you will take the time to look into this matter and consider the changes I have suggested.
• ADDITIONAL INFO: As mentioned before, after a certain amount of time has been passed, the time multiplier for each mission is reduced to zero. The puzzling thing is that whenever I complete a mission, the time multiplier is listed as "1.00x", instead of zero. Please fix this. It would also be appreciated if you greatly increased the par times and greatly decreased the par scores for each mission.

I started playing the campaign for CE again and am unable to load up The Maw. All the other levels loaded up fine. I’m not sure why this one will not. Please help as I would like to complete the campaign. I have tried a hard reset but it has not helped.
I also have a video -

I believe that when a skull is picked up in Halo 2 on MCC, its effect should be applied to the player - just like in the original game. When Envy is picked up, I think it should not affect speedrunning achievements. The original game had it, so this instance should as well, even if exploits (such as the infinite camo glitch) are present. As I said, it was present in the original Halo 2, so I think the MCC version should be the same.
