Bug report:
Halo 1 anniversary:
-Series X specific: Permanent white light in right corner of screen —> stopped testing on series x because of this and restarted on One X.
-Reticle seems to not be fully centered.
-1 crash at the end of mission 4.
-Mission 5: After the cutscene of the flood breaking free the gunfire sound effect got muted. Reloading the checkpoint fixed it.
Halo 2 anniversary:
-Observed some typo’s in the opening cutscene subtitles.
-Subtitles seem to have a small delay on them during cutscenes.
-The beginning cutscene of the mission ‘The Arbiter’ froze briefly but recovered. This also happened with the gravemind cutscene.
-Encountered a brief freeze during gameplay near the end of the gravemind mission.
-For just a flash of a second the game rarely shows a purple/pink test screen with the word ‘default’ in yellow text on it instead of the regular loading screen. This happened twice after finishing a mission.
Halo 3:
No issues
Halo 4:
-At the end of mission 1 when the title card is revealed some weird white lines appear at the very bottom edge of the screen.
-Mission 5 loaded in a garbled screen with glitched graphics the day after returning to the game and loading in to the first checkpoint. This also happened on mission 7. Restarting the missions from the mission select screen or reloading the last checkpoint fixed the issue.
-Pausing and unpausing temporarily gets rid of the background music in mission 9.
-Note: A glitch was reported in the first third of the Halo 4 campaign mission “Reclaimer,” around the start of Rally Point Bravo, the Covenant’s Lich appears overhead. Sometimes after completing this encounter, the Lich will fail to explode and the remainder of the mission will unload. This unloaded area appears as a large void and blocks all progress in the mission.
Though this glitch hasn’t appeared in this playthrough and I was unable to replicate it by retrying the mission, there’s still a chance it may happen. Restart the mission and try again if you encounter this glitch.
