I’m looking for people interested in playing HW1. I have the definitive edition and discord.

I used to play multiplayer years ago. Have only played against legendary AI for the past couple years with a buddy. That’s what i prefer to start off with but would consider PvP.

Why are people so hateful on this game. I played it years ago when it first launched, and recently picked it back up because I love RTS. It seems like anyone on XBOX has forsaken new players. I legit joined a match and started getting spam messages from someone I've never played with calling me trash and that since I'm not a higher rank I should just stop playing. This was before the match even started. Then his second base got attacked and he just dropped the match. I just dont get why people are so unbelievably toxic. Im by no means a bad player. But I support my team mates where I can and mostly don't resign unless my team mates do, even if I know we are going to lose. The reasons game die and communities don't grow is because if this behavior.

Does anyone else get stuck on an infinite loading screen when trying to play online versus?

Hi so long time hw1 player here,

just decided its time to play the second hw game, only for it to open the "Halo" app instead of opening the game.

so i downloaded the game over microsofts (shitty) store, tried nearly every fix i've found over google, reinstalled and it still just tries to launch the (uninstalled) "Halo" App

i just wanna play a chill RTS with my buddy, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Two times in a row today I just randomly DC from a 3v3 but I've played tons of 2v2 with a friend and we've never had issues lol. Is someone resigning and just crashing the lobby?

Just can't seem to find a good match these days. It's not even the lowbies. They're fine, I can handle them being new at the game.

But some people man. Last night, I had 3 straight matches where one guy was stealing everyone's map resources and mini bases. Today, had a guy do that, build 3 scarabs and sit in the back of the map doing nothing while I was clearing the board 3v1. Like dude, I don't go into versus AI for long drawn out, 45 minute matches what is this? If I wanted to 3v1 the AI, I'd do it legendary in a private match. In another match, a guy took every expansion on our side of the map. Every single one, leaving me and the other player with just our mains.

Like, bruh, I don't want to matchmake into a game and spend 30 minutes watching one person play. This is cooperative, get a grip.

People in this game are losing their damn minds and it's getting to a point where if I don't have a friend playing with me, I'd rather just not play. What is wrong with people anymore?

If Isabel is defeated while Ghost in the Machine is active, the hijacked units are automatically destroyed.

I was goofing around in Versus AI playing triple Scarab, when she Ghosted two of them and moments later was eliminated, destroying both of them. Imagine my dismay when two Scarabs instantly die lol. Luckily we won the game less than a minute later.

It baffles me how people can rage quit over such little things (unless he genuinely crashed). Felt bad for his teammate so I didn't immediately rush him, but I'm still amazed at how a loss of the equivalent of 500 supplies causes someone to quit the game

So, I don't rly know what caused the change. But anytime I played with other players I could see their coloured reticle on the minimal, it would help me know what my team is up to so I can act accordingly. But it has suddenly disappeared. Anyone have a solution?

I am making a deployable base in the game Space Engineers it is based off of the mini base in HW2.

I don't know what to name it though and I haven't been able to find a name/alias for the minibase.

So. If anybody knows what it's referred to in game/lore or has a suitable nickname for it that is commonly used, I would greatly appreciate it.

The current placeholder name is XO. (e)Xploration Outpost.

i've heard there is something wrong with banished turrets that have the anti-infantry upgrade but don't know anything else

What's your favorite HW2 map, whether for aesthetic or gameplay reasons? Also, what's your least favorite?

Are there any guides out there for the basics of mod-making in HW2? Anything I've found has been for Halo Wars: Definitive Edition, with a small exception: I found a tool for opening .pkg files (yay), but I can't find anything on opening the .xml.xmb files.

My understanding is that .xmb are compressed .xml files, but I can't find anything for uncompressing or opening them whatsoever. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hey everyone, as you are probably aware. Halowarpoint.com and it's backups have been down. Making it impossible to look up our stats and review games.

Well thanks to the efforts of the community we were able to rerelease an old back-up of the site. We have a fully working version of warpoint at https://www.halowarshub.com/

Keep up the grind. 🙌

Played the campaign a lot and really loved it. Want to know if there are any mods that can let both sides have access to more units early on in the play-through.

Always preferred DE over 2. Does anyone else feel the same?

Yo guys, my game keeps crashing at the ending cutscene after the campaign mission "What Could Go Wrong?" so i can't continue the story. I can't find anything about it so i have no clue how to troubleshoot this. Any help?

Loved halo wars on Xbox for many years - have tried getting into another RTS-ish game like Total War, but it just didn’t feel the same.

Is command and conquer close? What do yall play now?

I’m looking specifically at games on steam or that I can play on my MAC. thanks

Gods, I want a Halo Wars game that allows you to play as all of the factions from both games. I wanna have games of Banished vs Covenant, as well as for potential new playable factions, like the Insurrection, Forerunner Prometheans, and the Flood

So I've been trying Arcadia City on legend and I can't even really have my base up before everything goes bad. Idk if it's my copy, but convoys A and B get attacked for me as soon as all 3 pop up. I don't really get how I'm supposed to build a base while trying to heal them constantly, on top of actually building any units. I almost forgot to mention as well that I've normally got wraiths, locusts and hunters attacking my one base. So yeah, idk what to do and Google hasn't really given me anything helpful for the beginning of the stage. I read some tips on what to do once you're already set up. I just don't know how to solidify setting up on this particular level
