Active Issues 

The following are active issues for the global user interface (UI) and global gameplay as of 2020/11/17 in build 1.1955.0.0.  

User Interface (UI) 

• The game may crash on Xbox Series X consoles when the system's Game Clip Resolution option is set to anything other than 1080p SDR. Follow the steps below to locate and adjust this option:
  1. On the Xbox Series X console, open the Settings app
  2. In the Settings app, navigate to the "Preferences" tab
  3. Select the "Capture and Share" option
  4. If prompted, enter the Xbox Live account's passcode
  5. Under the "Capture" heading, set the "Game Clip Resolution" option to 1080p SDR
• Some saved content may be lost when updating to this build of the game, see this Halo Support article for additional information: Content May Be Lost During Updates 
• On PC, the game may freeze if the “Quit to Desktop” button is pressed shortly after loading the main menu 
• When playing with a mouse and keyboard on PC, the “Open Text Chat” function does not work when bound to W, A, S, or D 
• Scrolling down the “Roster” window with a controller sometimes results in profiles being skipped 
• Gamepad settings do not revert to defaults when using "Restore to Default Settings" as a guest or secondary profile on Xbox 
• On PC, the prompt for setting a keybind cannot be closed by pressing the ESC key 
• Changing “Window Mode” in “Settings” may result in the game switching to another screen in multi-monitor PC setups 
• When the game is set to display on a secondary monitor, the “Resolution Settings” option may display an incorrect value even when the game is rendering at the desired resolution 
• In “Borderless Window Mode” on PC, using the in-game “Settings” menu to switch to a secondary monitor and reduce the “Resolution Scale” to 75% or below causes the game to render at unusual sizes and buttons to become non-functional 
• The game may crash if the “Monitor” option in the “Video” tab of the “Settings” menu is set to a secondary monitor that is no longer connected to the PC 
• Buttons in the Help Bar under Network Settings will not function after pressing "Refresh Pings" until highlighting another menu option or switching setting pages 
• Scrolling down the list of servers will not work as expected after selecting the “Refresh Pings” button in the “Network” tab of the “Settings” menu 
• No messaging appears under the server list when network performance is poor 
• When trying to “Save As” File Share game types and/or maps for titles you do not own, they will appear to be corrupted upon restarting Halo: The Master Chief Collection 

Gameplay 

• When changing the “D-Pad & Buttons” gamepad option during gameplay on PC, the “Push to Talk” binding will always revert to down on the directional pad 
• When changing the “D-Pad & Buttons” gamepad option during gameplay on Xbox, the “Push to Talk” binding will not update to the newly selected option 
• “Push to Talk” voice chat will remain active if the bound button or key is held down while pausing the game 
• On Xbox Series X|S consoles, increasing the “Gamma” or "Contrast" option above 5 may result in oversaturation of darker areas in the menus and gameplay
