LASO playlist bug?
Played Halo Reach = no issue with using the save and quit option to revert to last checkpoint.

Upon reaching Halo CE playlist = I dont even die and press save and quit because I alerted enemies too early or failed to kill specific enemy.

But on some parts, if you resume your playlist its restarting the mission from the beginning. It even happens when u aren't even dying = really annoying. Are you have/had same issue guys?

Can list specifil points where this can happen:

The Pillar of Autumn - this level is too easy, dont died much there, never noticed restarting

Halo - right after you came from tunnel and attacking very first outpost. If you keep reloading there, the game can restart level completly.

The Truth and Reconciliation - checkpoint exacly right before Gravity Lift area, if you haging/resume game too much its kicks you right in the beginning of the mission.

The Silent Cartographer - this level is too easy, no encounters of restarting level.

Assault on the Control Room - the door right before you enter first room of patroling Corvenants (red Seargant Elite) and checkpoint right before very first bridge. Can restart whole level from the beginning. I used clifffalling glitch there, cant tell more about specifil points.

343 Guilty Spark - easy level, no single sending back to begining of the mission, even if you reload again

The Library - I starting loosing my patiens here on this part! Two buggy checkpoints here - one the corner area "very first run" where all monsters jumping from adove, you running pass medikit and make granade-jump (red power cell), also right before this chase beginn on a corner is a checkpoint = if you reload too much (or less, its always different), sometime if you resume you will get restart the mission. Second checkpoint is in the blue light tunnel with this bomb fat flood things (yep, right before you need to run ahaid are two bazooka monsters). Here even reloading checkpoint can get you even faster restarting mission.

95 % of those quit/save situations weren't even in death animation.

Anyone encountered same thing on Combat Evolved? Cause Reach was just fine.

I thought the point of the Iron skull was to send you back to the beginning of the mission upon death or checkpoint reload.

if you press save/quit, then resume playlist you will be back on last checkpoint (yes even LASO have checkpoints)

Probably a glitch. Halo 4 is even worse with save and quit.

The whole game worked perfectly fine for me. Even though CE anniversary on my console would sometimes revert the instant I died and i'd have to close the game without saving.

That said, the Library is the hardest LASO mission I have ever played. But I passed it. So the only game I haven't beaten is Halo 2 (as it isn't out yet and the other stand alones had skulls)

I found out how can I trick out they system more efficiently. As soon as I am in death animation, I press escape then alt+f4 instead of quit/save. Its possibly that in combat evolved "saving system" triggering much earlier as on Reach.

Kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up yesterday on final door, was bisy with infections, so the door opens and gave me more stress, I decided to restart, had not much ammo.

Yes I'm getting this ♥♥♥♥. Assault on the control room, the part before the bridge is pissing me right off and nobody has answers. I'm not even dying, yet when I save and quit there's about a 30% chance the level restarts. Made even worse when people keep telling you to save & quit faster when dying, when you never died to begin with fml

When you save and quit, don’t go back to the mission so quickly. Take your time and give it like 10 to 20 seconds before u go back to where u left off. I think it has to do with the mcc loading. A good estimate is to wait til u see ur multiplayer rank load at the top right of your screen before u get back in game.

It's not exactly a bug, it's just the exploit to cheat the iron skull is harder to pull off in the earlier games.

I realy hope its gonna be easier in Halo 3, I never had problem on Reach, its happens after Combat Evolved. Now Halo 2.

I don't think it has anything to do with this. I'm just playing the Heroic playlist, and I cannot save & quit in the middle of a mission in Halo CE and 2. In Reach, the playlist will resume at the closest checkpoint, but in CE and 2, I'll always restart the mission. Curiously, the only mission this didn't happen with in the playlist was Truth and Reconciliation in CE.

Halo 3 Ark: already 3 bugged restarts. Avoiding method from Combat Evolved and Halo 2 not working.

I had to put Halo on my HDD (instead of the SSD) because it makes it take take longer to load which gives you more time to save and quit when you die.

That's the only issue I had with it

Completed ODST LASO. Not a single playlist bug/reset. And its easy one.
