    Re: Keep ONLY H4 and H2A this war until further notice?

    Pointless thread is pointless.

    Guys this momentary and relatively short change is so we can run as efficient and effective battle nights as possible. While some did not have issues getting into games, many others did. It would not be fair to the community to try and run through the deep mud when we can take a SHORT TEMPORARY sidepath. It's also a major hassle on the squad leaders and army leaders to set battles up under current conditions. Why this is even an issue is ridiculous. You guys can live for 3 weeks on H2A & H4. Remember our focus is for a fun & efficient battle night; if we can significantly improve the amount of time it takes to get into battles then we are going to take the proper route.

    So for further clarification...

    1) This is not permanent. Similar to our removal of 8v8s, this is only until 343 fixes the game so it's stable and reliable enough. (or until everyone forwards their ports and gets Open NATs...)

    2) We aren't "removing" anything. This is effectively just an honor rule. "We can attack Map A or Map B. Map A is more stable, so we'll try to focus on that and other maps that don't cause as many problems."

    3) All of this is for the sake of trying to let you guys have a fun time on Sundays, because a lot of people didn't have fun last night, meaning something was wrong. MCC still needs work, and until then we are forced to do the best we can. Things are going to be painful, but we're trying to mitigate that as much as possible.



    As said in #1, if we could get everyone to forward ports and get Open NATs we would suddenly have very few issues. You only have an excuses not to if you're on university internet or something. If you don't know how, ask someone (myself, Carpe, Phoenix, etc., we're all willing to help). If you're just lazy, most of the issues you've been having on MCC are the result; get off your ass and do it or ask someone for help!

    • Can't join a lobby? 90% of the time it's because either you or someone else in the game doesn't have an Open NAT.
    • Get kicked out during a loading screen? 70% of the time it's because either you or someone else in the game doesn't have an Open NAT.
    • Experiencing lag mid-game? 80% of the time it's because either you or someone else in the game doesn't have an Open NAT.
    • Get disconnected mid-game? 80% of the time it's because either you or someone else in the game doesn't have an Open NAT.

    Stop living in mediocrity and get an Open NAT today! {Seriously, just ask someone for help... it won't even take that long...}

    *Percentages made up, but in reality are likely even higher.


    Just saying, I never needed to restart my game, reset my console, etc. even a single time during the entire night. Only issues I ever had were some minor lag in game and people getting disconnected mid-game (and I was never the one disconnected), which are almost always only due to NAT issues. MCC works, it's the NATs of people that are hurting us the most right now...

    SPREAD THE WORD! People who need help should get help (heck, even a Google search will give you plenty of tutorials)

    For those of you with access to your routers and want to forward the ports, below is a list of ports used by XBOne and the protocol(s) used on said ports:
    ------------------------------------------
    Port 88 (UDP)
    Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)
    Port 53 (UDP and TCP)
    Port 80 (TCP)
    Port 500 (UDP)
    Port 3544 (UDP)
    Port 4500 (UDP)
    ------------------------------------------
    Note: Not all routers or configurations can forward ports, so check before you go mucking around in the Internet Box.

    Hope this helps y'all out!

    Can I get a hall pass because all of my ports are forwarded and I still have a strict NAT?

    I do have a private IP address, which is probably the reason, but I can't get it changed because lots of complicated reasons I don't really understand.

    That's why.
    "If you have been assigned a private IP address, you will have to contact your ISP to request a public IP address to eliminate a NAT issue on your Xbox. If your ISP cannot supply you with a public IP address, you will have to change ISPs, or you will not be able to resolve the NAT issue."
    Gotta love that Support.

    I do like this because the other games are broken man and it seems the connection is better than Halo 1, 2, &3. Keep it with just Halo 4 & Halo 2A for a while until this broken game gets its huge ass patch. Good decision by the war council.

    I think Halo CE and 3 works So we could just remove halo 2

    I don't understand how people can vote to play games that aren't stable...

    I'd rather have fun on a smaller map pool, than waste time in games that aren't finished.

    This could last a couple weeks to more depending on when our leaders find MCC suitable to be played on the other Halo games.
    What do you think?
    Should we only play on H4 and H2A until further notice, or continue as planned on the current warmap?
    I want to see your vote and comments!

    Why is this even a thing to begin with? I guess polling public opinion is nice and all, but it does and means absolutely nothing. In case you are unaware, FC is a WARSIM community. With Armies. And not exactly what one could call a democratic environment. Whether or not the community likes the decision of WC is irrelevant; WC, the members entrusted with decision making authority for this community, have made their decision. Fin.

    If after 3 weeks things still aren't functioning, would you have us move back to playing games that often crash? Why would you wish that upon anyone?
