Someone needs to make a discord dedicated to custom games as a custom game browser, people do it for other games so I'm sure someone can figure it out for halo.
dude I just hopped on the xbox "looking for" page and I got in and we played all night. The host said we had 50 people waiting to get in (to which i said they could make their own 2 lobbies out of that many people lol).
Discord and LFG is the way. You can easily get 15+ people really quick, especially if you know how to host, have your maps bookmarked ahead of time so ppl don't leave, etc. I finally got onto mint blitz's discord yesterday and had a great time doing so meeting up with various gents
What we need is a custom browser, this is the disappointing aspect of this winter update. Love all these new maps but I don’t game all that much so I don’t have all that many friends much less who play infinite where I’m able to play all these private custom games. I wanna be able to join others in the community and also learn from them
Facts we need a custom browser will we ever get one? Probably not unfortunately I have no idea if there are any plans on adding one. Halo 5 ftw I guess lmao
I think most people meant, "How do I join a custom game?" cause hosting is easy, but getting into a game takes a decent amount of searching through discord or the xbox app. That server browser in S3 better be fantastic cause now all I wanna play is custom games
I love that we can browse and bookmark these on the website/app. It's been great for tagging maps you like while watching a YT video or something even if you don't have your game open, but it's bookmarked in game when you are ready to play!
I played a bunch of custom games with some guys in SeanW’s discord. It was super fun but most of the maps we played on had broken spawns where you’d spawn outside of the map
Weird how no one has mentioned clubs on the Xbox. Just go to the official Halo club and go find groups to play with. Super simple and I ususally get in to a game in 5-10 minutes.
Something I wanna mention, mode bookmarks can be bugged for some people so (if the creator allows) try to save copies of modes if you can. Map (and prefab) bookmarks seem to work just fine though.
All the time mate it’s so frustrating, have both game mode and map bookmarked, choose the map then go to choose the game mode and it says I have none book marked. Wtf
I uninstalled again that sh*tty game the second I realized there was no custom game browser and all the extra steps I had to do just to play. thanks 343, you're still killing it as usual...
Correct me if I'm wrong. Halo Infinite has not gotten CTF right. (symmetrical gametypes are on asymmetrical maps) For some reason we get Joint Ops where 1 flag is essentially a mini game but they can't release Infection?
If your looking for people join the server called halocustoms, join the offical HALO server, or join youtuber servers. All of those servers are decently active and are an absolute blast.
This is what just makes me go... Ehh... I haven't even watched the video and already know finding custom games is pretty much only possible through joining Discords and shit. I hate that, and makes me not want to play, and since Forge and CG is literally the only thing worth playing in this "update," I've pretty much only played like 30 minutes before going back to GoW Ragnarok. Aftet I finish that, I'll probably go back to grinding MW2 and then play a shit ton of Warzone 2. Then there's a new dungeon coming to Destiny 2 next month I think, and with all those huge games, this game that literally feels like an Indie game very often, just gets completely eclipsed... It feels sad to say that, but that's where I'm at with Infinite unfortunately
Hi I am from Germany and I followed every step, but for some reason I could't activate the "Uber Octagon" settings if I want start a game with your map. I don't get it :(
343: "Here we made Forge hope you enjoy". Player: "Hey I have to have tons of friends online to enjoy Forge?" Logic: "Why would you implement Forge but not give Players a way to easily join each others matches?"
Informing tutorial, much appreciated. Side note. I can't be the only one that gets a bit deflated just looking at Infinite's UI right? All it does is remind me just how much better Bungie was at aesthetic and overall organization.
Haven't played halo infinite in a while but I'm wondering, Is there a way to host a match that includes Both bots and players? Similar to how in multiplayer, whenever a player leaves. A bot takes over so I'm wondering if I don't have enough players, I can replace the rest with bots
Just gotta wait a couple of months for custom games to actually get good maps there’s some good ones atm but a lot are buggy or don’t work properly (Lack of infection doesn’t help either)
I haven't seen anyone really talking about the LFG feature integrated into our Xbox 🤣. I think that is a really great way. We need to get host to make post and we need to get players to start using the LFG
You can just go to details and check the Owners files for the correct gamemode. Instead of searching for it. Though it looks like you're missing the "social" section under the "file" section in this video
"4000, that seems like alot" -uber nick wow, could you imagine if forge came out a year ago on release? how much content and people would still be here? lol
Server browser will probably take them a few months to a year if I’m being brutally realistic. They’re not even able to get us cross-core or drop-pods on time, or follow through with either.
You can either complain that you can't find people to play with or suck it up and join a discord. You don't even have to talk to anyone. Just say "Can someone invite me to a custom game? Here's my gamer tag:" Easy, simple.
Yeah, I agree. Although I definitely understand that joining a voice chat with full of strangers can seem frightening. But it's just as you said, you don't have have to talk to anyone. Just ask if someone can invite.
@@LengthyHalo oh I was for sure nervous the first time the other day, I didn't even think I was going to talk, but the people were so chill I ended up talking a bit.
Does anyone else have their bookmarks not showing up at all? I have a bunch bookmarked, and none are listed when I go to Custom Games -> Maps -> My Bookmarks. "No Results Found. Try different filters and try again" (And yes, I have cleared filters.)
so there is no server browser.. got it. how does 343 fuck everything up. "Oh yeah lets add this feature that people were asking for ages, but make sure there is no way to play with random people"
Just a warning my bookmarks page stopped working after adding five pages worth now if I try to go to next page from the first page everything is blank. So don't bookmark too many maps
gotta say the title is a little missleading not sure if it was an accident but yah wish I could come back and play but I have no friends so ill wait till the browser comes out
Thanks for the info but i want to play with more people in the map not just load the map for myself😐 😅 how can i play with more people? just like good old times
Why cant they just have the custom games lobby like Halo 5? Or Halo Combat Evolved on pc? bruz why is it so hard for the devs to do something so simple. I just wanna play for fun.
@@StrengthScholar0 well i want to play customs there is a server here but its dead i already deal with insane ping in matchmaking so if there actually is a latin american community playing customs i want to find it so i dont also have to deal with insane ping in customs. I'm not against playing in NA its a good time but it's just the ping that kills the game for me. for example if we start a br battle at the same time I'll be the first one to die cause of latency, it happens a lot, sometimes i don't even get to hear the other players 3th shot and im dead.
WHAT BRINGS ME ALL THE MAPS WHEN I CANT FIND ANY PLAYERS?!?!?!?! I DONT WANT GO TO A DISCORD SERVER AND HOPE THERE ARE PEOPLE GA DAMN! I DONT WANT TO TALK OR WRITE I JUST WANT HOP INTO A MATCH WITH OTHER PLAYERS!!!! HOW CAN THIS BE SO HARD?!?!?! ONLY HALO NERDS WILL DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT BUT 99% OF PLAYER BASE JUST WANT HOP IN GAME EASYLY! HOW CAN 343 INDUSTRIES BE SO INCOMPTENT??? I DONT GET IT!!! MICROSOFT BURN THEM DOWN!!! CLOSE THIS STUDIO!!!!!!!!!! I A MAD!!!!! I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS??!?!?!? FOR THIS JOKE?!?!?!? DO THEY EVEN PLAY THIER OWN GAME??????? GGRGRRRRAAAAHHH!!!!!! AND ALL THIS UA-camRS NOW WITH THEIR VIDEOS "OH YEHA NOW HALO INFINITE IS BACK" ITS NOT YOU DONKEYS ITS NOT!!!!
Anyone on Xbox wanna make a friend? I smoke and I’m chill I just got social anxiety. Quiet hate is my gtag. 22 and I have like no friends bro. Please lol
The hard part is finding people to fill a game with.
Join my Discord or there are many other Halo UA-camrs who host customs in theirs :)
Someone needs to make a discord dedicated to custom games as a custom game browser, people do it for other games so I'm sure someone can figure it out for halo.
I guess Discord servers are our custom browser until one drops next season. But I just don't understand why its taking so long to make one.

Facts we need a custom browser will we ever get one? Probably not unfortunately I have no idea if there are any plans on adding one. Halo 5 ftw I guess lmao
@@RoachCatJr ya, so basically a major oversight LOL
I think most people meant, "How do I join a custom game?" cause hosting is easy, but getting into a game takes a decent amount of searching through discord or the xbox app. That server browser in S3 better be fantastic cause now all I wanna play is custom games
They need a forge popular playlist for those of us who don’t have much time to populate these matches
Loving the constant uploads Nick. Its a good time to be a Halo youtuber
I love that we can browse and bookmark these on the website/app. It's been great for tagging maps you like while watching a YT video or something even if you don't have your game open, but it's bookmarked in game when you are ready to play!
bookmarking isn’t working for me, anybody else having issues?
Once we have a custom games browser like MCC’s this game will be complete in my eyes.
I’ve had so much trouble finding these, thank you so much for this one! 👊🏻
Curfew & Hoodlum are a couple of faves
I played a bunch of custom games with some guys in SeanW’s discord. It was super fun but most of the maps we played on had broken spawns where you’d spawn outside of the map
So you can just play by yourself in the map? I still don't get how to play custom games with other people
Thank You for this video explaining how to play games on forge greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much for making this video. It was exactly what I was looking for!
This isn't finding "games", it's finding *maps*
Right? FFS this is opportunistic clickbait lol
I don't think this is what people are wondering, they want to know how to join existing matches with other players
for real!
Can't be "uberwhelming" enough when it comes to Halo 😂 Thanks for the tutorial Nick, will come in handy.
Weird how no one has mentioned clubs on the Xbox. Just go to the official Halo club and go find groups to play with. Super simple and I ususally get in to a game in 5-10 minutes.
Clubs? wtf
Thank's this helps a lot
My bookmarks quit working on day 2. I can’t see them at all
It desperately needs forge maps integrated into a playlist
Something I wanna mention, mode bookmarks can be bugged for some people so (if the creator allows) try to save copies of modes if you can. Map (and prefab) bookmarks seem to work just fine though.

Can you level up your battle pass with Forge maps?
If your looking for people join the server called halocustoms, join the offical HALO server, or join youtuber servers. All of those servers are decently active and are an absolute blast.
I wish they had a recent option for the custom gams you did play and like. MCC has this and it's great.
Man I just wanna see my prefabs back in forge, they all vanished 2 days ago.
This is what just makes me go... Ehh... I haven't even watched the video and already know finding custom games is pretty much only possible through joining Discords and shit.

Indies games are not lacking. Haven’t played Celeste, Hades, Hollow Knight, Cuphead?
Hi I am from Germany and I followed every step, but for some reason I could't activate the "Uber Octagon" settings if I want start a game with your map.
I don't get it :(
343: "Here we made Forge hope you enjoy".
Player: "Hey I have to have tons of friends online to enjoy Forge?"

When I click on the game mode under my bookmarks nothing happens

You can turn bots on in the mode settings!
They should tie the map and creator recommended mode settings together.
Thank you so much my smol tired brain can’t think of how to work it
you should prob change the title to "game modes" you make it sound like there is a custom game browser you can glitch into or something
any cod zombies games mode yet?
Question- does the website count for us Xbox players as well or is that method exclusive to pc users?
Works for Xbox users as well :)
I was tryna play but I couldn’t figure out nd I go on ur nd this is recommended at the Top without searching 😂😊
Just gotta wait a couple of months for custom games to actually get good maps there’s some good ones atm but a lot are buggy or don’t work properly

How do you play with people make that video
Join a discord server
Use Xbox looking for group posts
What I wanna know is, how the hell do I put a screenshot on my forge map? It literally doesn't let me or says there are no screenshots.
Nick first thanks for the tutorial. My question are we not able to search for Lobbies? I really want to try that Paintball mode.
I haven't seen anyone really talking about the LFG feature integrated into our Xbox 🤣. I think that is a really great way. We need to get host to make post and we need to get players to start using the LFG
I’d love to see a custom game browser like in MCC

Is this PC only because I can’t any maps you’ve shown
The in game tutorial works for PC and Xbox
Random question but does anyone know when the custom game browser will be added to infinite?
I think it's coming season 3
Thanks!
Im old and dont know how to use Discord 😅 please help me understand or give me a link to figure it out. Also i use console not pc
Right with you brotha, they need to hurry up and make matchmaking for these.
@@Tea_N_Snacks Yes but knowing 343 it will them another year or 2 just for custom playlist 😭
@@sanchezs7614 Use Xbox looking for group post. There you go.
why cant we have custom browsers?
Without a server browser forge is useless to me
For some reason I can’t view my third bookmarked tab
I cant load/choose the mod from the bookmarks anyone face the same thing ???
"4000, that seems like alot" -uber nick
wow, could you imagine if forge came out a year ago on release? how much content and people would still be here? lol
Someone mentioned just inviting everyone from your last regular match and starting a custom game
But its only you in the map, I want a browser where there are legit players already in custom maps, and I can just join said game.
Custom games are easy to fill up on Xbox lfg within like 5 minutes getting full lobbies
no way to find players hosting like in H5G tho :(
Server browser will probably take them a few months to a year if I’m being brutally realistic. They’re not even able to get us cross-core or drop-pods on time, or follow through with either.
I want to play BTB on old maps

March
I guess you do remember my map from halo 4 😂😂😂
Odd timing for this. How about telling us about the fix for fixing our bookmarks that don't seem to appear anymore?
Am I the only one who cannot access my bookmarks? Its so annoying when I try to save something from halo waypoint and it won't show up.

Many Halo UA-camrs host custom games in their discord server. You could always join one.
The fact we have to do this just to play with eachother is so stupid why can’t they think smarter at 343???
This was slightly misleading, am looking to matchmake or browse custom game lobbies to join.
Thanks for the info but i want to play with more people in the map not just load the map for myself😐 😅 how can i play with more people? just like good old times

This didnt help me find games. Only told me how to find maps and modes :(

Now this is how you grow the halo community!

best i can do sometimes is just pick guys off that have already been dealt damage it's no fun like that.
Better idea is stop launching shit without matchmaking. It's like 343 is clueless
Mode game offline bots?XD
