This was fun, seeing other parts of the community being casual was really nice to watch. Please consider doing more. Stress free content is always welcome I'm sure ;)
I second this! I came for the competitive content but honestly laid-back messing-around Lucid is just as fun to watch, especially with another prominent creator in the community!
This game really feels so good with the movement, the last halo I was serious about was reach and miss the custom games and infected game mode but I find the normal quick play to be more enjoyable.
If there ever is a battle royal they should add optional alternative gameplay and live up to Combat Evolved once again. Dead players will become Flood Hive Minds and orchestrate the flood or be a flood controlled by other players. This will allow you to control ai as well. A hinderance would be limited actions when not being properly managed by another player. There should be an option to attempt to break away from the hive and then all the other hive attack you based on how well and discreet you are. You also literally couldn’t walk except in the direction of the circle. (Unless your hive mind pays attention to you and lets you have more self control of movement. It can also grant evolutionary flood adaptions to the chosen players but a limit depending on how effective the flood is.) As a player progresses playing as the flood it unlocks Flood halo universe secrets and facts about the UNSC Covenant and any other species its ever encountered or vanquished. Forerunner Flood Archives. This way the game if the player wants has an outlet for more cannon.
Good stuff man, i was introduced to halo and its community from your channel / OpTic. Having only played this game for 3 weeks i've learned really quickly from watching your gameplay and tip videos, and i'm having way more fun than i was playing cod. Looking forward to more collabs and content in the future
Damn I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. Something about two dudes just playing some Halo and chatting casually is so strangely soothing and enjoyable. PLEASE consider doing more of this kind of stuff with other content creators or even fans
Okay, I have watched so many guides on this and everyone describes it differently. It finally clicked when you said, "right before you hit the ground" then I heard the spartans boots hit the ground. So now, right before I can hear the boots hit the ground in my head I crouch. Once I started doing that I can nail these slides everywhere. Thanks man!!
Act Man is definitely the guy to be buds with IMO. He’s not a pro player, but I feel like he totally understands (and actively tries to understand) the nuance between competitive and casual Halo and why those two things ARENT at war with each other. I see people argue one way or the other like “Ranked players are trying to ruin my fun by nerfing the Mangler” and Act Man is like “How about we just.. have good Halo for everybody?”
This why I love TH-cam, I really do appreciate you letting us in on the “cracked”😂 movement trick. New to this channel but glad I found it here. I liked and subscribed👍
Trying to hit onyx and this will DEFINITELY help. I'm currently a D3 and I swear I'm watching all your content religiously at this point😅. Could you do a video on the weapon drills/your high scores?
@Jay yeah that’s my issue. I’m D4 rn and about 50% of the times I play ctf people quit before the game even starts. definitely annoying af and makes me not want to grind more. still a great game tho I’m having a lot of fun
The no scoping with the sniper amazes me, I’ve been playing for 15+ years and I just don’t get how the hell you are able to no scope headshot that consistently, the skill is on a completely different level
Hope you two do more collaborations together in the future! Cool to see a pro such as yourself being such a fan of halo outside of the competitive side
@13:08 you can see what is wrong with the beatdown and why it seems like you’re not getting it to register. In halo you typically collide with other players. In this game you can walk through one another, making it harder to get the beatdown kill
Watch everything you post and this was actually really good to watch. For you to keep your calm on a casual game and be extra informative on the movements👍🏽👍🏽
Yo lucid. Do you know about the slide boost jump in bottom pit from the box under br tower. You slide boost into the wall that’s to the left of OV/AC if you were to look straight at it. If you time it right and jump right when you hit the wall it will pop you up right under the box you were using to get to c plat.
More is always better. We want the game to be healthy and to have a long life like halo 3 did, and for that to happen we need to be open to some changes. Infinite has a few major issues, but we're so close to having a perfect competitive and casual shooter game if they can pull it off. Fix the desync issues, add in forge, and make credits grindable. You do those three things, and I can guarantee the game lives at least 6 years easily. Add in a BR mode and other fun new additions, and that's even better.
I think Halo is the best type of game for balancing casual and competitive play as well because you don’t even necessarily need to nerf guns. Pro players think the Mangler is too strong? Cool. Adjust the ranked spawns on the weapon so it’s more rare. Doesn’t affect casual play AT ALL. That’s what’s really cool about not having load outs in Halo. You can nerf a gun by changing the way it spawns or the location of the spawns OR just not include it in ranked at all (gravity hammer and cindershot for example). I think that’s a cool way to have overpowered guns in the game without feeling like a clown fiesta at all times.
@@LucidTWW it turns out all i needed to do was switch crouch/slide from a paddle to a stick! now it is super easy. crouching mid fight is a little tougher to get solid aim tho so i will work on that. i am flying around though!
I think the ranking system has some sort of secret not related to statistics sort of thing to it. Cuz I did poor statistically against lesser ranks didn’t matter if won or lost I didn’t drop at all but my team mates who were lower rank than I did drop. I am thinking it’s sort of a positional sort of are you surviving battles and putting shots on the enemy or are you sprinting around the map like a buffoon type thing. I probably should have dropped from plat 6 tonight but I didn’t. Might have had a tiny spec up or down but never anything significant. Idk why I put this here. I clicked this video hours ago and came back to TH-cam after playing halo and decided to share muh thoughts
large 24 hour war like Planet Side in Halo, that has pick ups and loot system on the battlefield. Regular Marines would make a good starting class also.
@lucid can you go back and comment on and review some of these old thoughts and hot takes? Would love to see comments checking out your old play and predictions.
Tried it and it Worked a couple times tho, but seems pretty hard that slide thing or is it harder on pc ? I seem to end up crouching alot after I sprint from something instead of direct speed slide.
VIDEO IDEA - Film your hands ? It would be great to know in what way the right stick comes into play. I fear i use it to heavily and always destroy my own kills... i never spent so many hours in a game to find the right settings and its driving me nuts
I started playing Halo 1 in tournaments around big cities which was MLG before MLG and I absolutely love Halo Infinite. I am going to practice the slides which the movement is fantastic in this game thanks for the tips.
@@FiscoInferno 0 for movement. Yes. You do get rotational aim assist if you simply strafe back and forth without touching the right (aim) stick. Your crosshairs stick thus "rotating" your character slightly.

Absolutely!

Love how Lucid is just like having a casual convo while absolutely murking with the snipe haha
Murking with the snipe? Can we talk about the Smooth Operator moves on the map?
The whole gameplay was nuts for being so casual.
I follow both of you guys and I’m so happy to see you’ve made a collaboration
Love The Act Man!
they should do a pvp match with xpiria too
@@jakubmadejski1481 100%
That was a fun relaxing, super informative sesh. Thanks! Also found it easier to grasp how the slide is supposed to feel. Thanks man.
This game really feels so good with the movement, the last halo I was serious about was reach and miss the custom games and infected game mode but I find the normal quick play to be more enjoyable.
Infected was the best
Infected is back
@@dreezo1552it’s back . Halo is starting to feel like halo again
Just here to say I love the casual style community content !! It's a fantastic idea. Thanks Lucid!!
Thank you!!
The Act Man is awesome, sick
He is awesome!
Halo Battle Royale: The FLOOD would be the circle that closes in 😱
I'd rather have a flood survival mode over BR.
ODST drop into the map, and Covenant or I guess Banished cruisers glassing the planet are the circle that closes. It's like Halo was made for it!

lucid is just cracked, just casually no scoping not even flinching or reacting what a boss
This has just come up for me. Act Man you're awesome! I'm gonna miss your content. Lucid, you're amazing too bro
Halo battle Royal should be the “hunger games “ game mode in custom games back in thee ol days .
Movement guide: 9:30

It's Lucid so it gets the instalike and the algorithm fix
you are the best
@@LucidTWW thx G but you're (one of) the absolute best - that's why we're here!
I like this kind of content. Bit of casual community stuff mixed with tips.
Love the content with the act man.
it's crazy how fluidly you move around the map - you got skates on bro

This is my fav Lucid video so far
Act Man and Lucid?!? Hell yeah!

I thought the same thing lol

your videos are the only reason i even play the game your videos are great, have a great day!
That slide tactic is insane
This video is proper 👌 blessing us with knowledge
The no scoping with the sniper amazes me, I’ve been playing for 15+ years and I just don’t get how the hell you are able to no scope headshot that consistently, the skill is on a completely different level
Loved this. I desperately need to work on this. idk why I can't seem to do it consistently
12:13 "now your @ the water park"
"yeaa were @ the water park!"😂
I loved the mangler but now I kinda hate it cause that’s the only kills close range I can’t avoid but I’ll just have to Evolve my Combat
Hope you two do more collaborations together in the future! Cool to see a pro such as yourself being such a fan of halo outside of the competitive side
I don’t like battle royal but for halo it would be a cool and new and refreshing add to halo, and could work. I’d love to see it
That pistol kill at 5:52 tho.
The end part of that was sick. More vids on movement please. Want to know most essential paths on other maps.
@13:08 you can see what is wrong with the beatdown and why it seems like you’re not getting it to register. In halo you typically collide with other players. In this game you can walk through one another, making it harder to get the beatdown kill
Your movement is sooooo sick!!!!!
You can make the jump to sandbags from the first ledge.
Love the collab ! Keep up the great content
Great content. Appreciate the collaboration!
Thanks for sharing the mega high IQ tech. The shmovement is insane!
Can you go over your settings again for me ? Having trouble
Wow definetely going to practice that
Watch everything you post and this was actually really good to watch. For you to keep your calm on a casual game and be extra informative on the movements👍🏽👍🏽
It took me 3 minutes to realize you were playing with Act Man ahahaha
Love the gameplay man!
How am I Diamond 6 and didn't know you could throw grenades while sliding until I saw Lucid do it in this vid. .____.
I'm so glad u made this mini tutorial ? Thankyou so much . I was wondering how u moved so nasty lol
Actual guide starts at 9:32
Great Work Lucid
Welp, a year later, we got both battle royale and campaigns in forge!
Damn lucids got a nasty shot!! There’s just not much the opponents can do against that!

I'm excited for all the possibilities in forge but most off all i can't wait to make some challenging grapple obstacle courses
Yoh Lucid this was awesome thanks for showing me these tips. I knew you could slip off ramps but i didnt know how to repeat the small flat slids.
What are your keybindings/button layout?
your movement is insane…i am struggling with the timing a bit when it isn’t down stairs/a ramp. thanks for the tips.
yeah, curbslide timing is pretty tight while dropslides are free with holding crouch. just keep practicing :)
Just spend an hour practicing and you will get it!

Great upload lucid! Thank you
Do you ever play on pc? You would be an absolute BEAST bro 😊
Dude the way Tommy handle the sidekick is god tier
Did you learn anything?
This is nuts! I've seen you play a few times and couldnt figured out how you move that quick lol. Definitely a sub and a like from me. Thank you!
this answers my "how in the fuck are they moving so fast?" question lol
holy shit yall did a collab. thats fuvking great.
Lol this guy asking if he can make it into optic when he doesn't even know about the long slide
Thanks for the tips! I managed to pull it off! Will continue practicing. By the way what kind of controller do you use? Scuff or Elite? Thanks
Scuf
@@kryptic_lc Thanks
Can we get more videos like this boss?😊
Wow... and we thighs endgame was the biggest crossover... 💯💯

What FOV do you use?
the 1,600 Microsoft points, damn that brought back some memories lmao
@lucid can you go back and comment on and review some of these old thoughts and hot takes? Would love to see comments checking out your old play and predictions.
They should turn up the fire rate on the plasma pistol and the tracking and damage down a little on each
Did you change your FOV?
Battle Royale can (and hopefully will) be fun, but will never replace classic comp.
Tried it and it Worked a couple times tho, but seems pretty hard that slide thing or is it harder on pc ? I seem to end up crouching alot after I sprint from something instead of direct speed slide.
W vid road to 100k
Yessssir we will get there!
If Forge has the option to add the attrition danger zone I'm sure people could come up with some fun ideas.
dude you should really just upload what you are thinking the entire time on a game replay. That would be super helpful and get a ton of views,
I definitely might do that!

to have lucid give play lessons would be amazing!!!
Did the pros ever come to a concensus on what movement threshold to use? 0 vs 15 and why? Or does it not really matter?
I was under the impression that 15 is better, it’s going to respond faster. Some guy posted 29 pro’s settings on Reddit and almost everyone was on 15.
@@zookoh1595 Yeah, I saw someone the other day say that 0 made rotational aim assist stronger. Couldn't find anything to back up that claim though.
@@sallydrum7156 0 for movement or look?
