Shit. At least some game went the right direction tonight.

To be fair, with a game this broke it's no surprise that a week isn't enough time.
That's if they get thanksgiving off.

Update: Better results searching in Championship Series.
It seems to be working a little better. A little.

In all fairness we ARE going to see more broken posts than fixed. Id assume the people with a working game are playing.

I bought a console for this.
I spent four hundred goddamn dollars.
I am seriously butthurt about this. Any and all hope I had for anything 343 does in the future is dead and buried.
I seriously bought two of my friends xbones for Halo launch so I have spent £500ish to play a game which doesn't work. We completed Halo 3 and 4 and then stopped. hope it fixes soon and so far this patch has made it better for me.
I don't think they really give a shit about this collection, so they probably will. Actually, I don't care if they do or not. At this point they've shown that either they just don't care enough to fix it or they aren't competent enough. The game will never be fixed.
To be fair, I think there are probably some people at 343 that genuinely care and don't deserve to suffer from the actions of some of the other incompetent people working there.

Not me. I hope some MS overlord commands them to work on this shit 24/7 until it's fixed. I have no care for any of these people because they were willing to take my $60 for a broken ass product. The disgusting lack of communication (the PR "oh, thank you for your continued patience" doesn't fucking count) about what exactly is going on only confirms my lack of care.
You can't, not when the message is mixed.
I get people are frustrated. Maybe it's just me that thinks that software is bound to continue to be broken (not just games) on release, and that's a thing you need to consider as early adopters. I don't think this will ever change as it hasn't already changed for a very long time.
I'll admit I got this day one and love it. Do I want everything to work? Sure. Is there a ton of content to play while they get it there? Yep.

I can at least confirm that Halo CE single player campaign hit detection is massively improved, so that is one good thing this patch has done. When playing pre-patch the hit detection was way off, playing the sniper level in the SP it was really a challenge because from a distance it was just off and even though you had someone dead to rights, it would not light up red, but now with the patch it is PERFECT! So happy about that.
MP has been better for me, but still a mess. Takes a while to get into a game and for me I have had 2 out 5 uneven teams. Out of those 5 games, 2 suddenly just ended, so that still is a problem. I mean it is a bit better than it was before, but nowhere near where it should be given that this is HALO.

Good God. It's a fucking game. Calling for people to zombify themselves and spend time away from their families because you can't relive your childhood/college years/whatever is beyond selfish.
I get that you're upset, but there's no excuse to be that way.

My searches are resolving with an avg of about 40 seconds.
Shit is okay with me. Not perfect obviously, but if I can get into a game I have a hard time being totally upset.

Posters thought I was a bit over the top saying this is worse than Battlefield and Driveclub.
MCC has a far larger number of issues than those two. The other two have just been a bit broken longer.
But that's ok, MCC wont ever be fixed anyway so I'm comfortable with my original call.
Then don't be surprise at people venting their frustration. Even the main OT is now being hammered by people having problems.
And here I was so happy with my 5 min wait before the patch. At least I had full player games before and now not no more
.Delivering a product to consumers in this condition would get you fired in almost any other IT related field.
I never said they should be working on thanksgiving. All I said was that I don't care if they do or not at this point since they aren't capable of fixing it.
I got a refund from MS. But my heart goes out to those that stuck with this (hoping for a quick fix). You guys don't deserve this. This is totally unacceptable. This game shouldn't have been released in its state. MS should be ashamed of themselves, that they would allow their flagship franchise to release in this condition. I don't care if they really wanted this to be a major sell during the Holidays. If it wasn't ready to be released, it shouldn't have been. It's terrible that they pushed this out, considering that so many of the fans that are buying this have been loyal to the series/franchise and had a reasonable expectation. They bought this game, assuming they were going to get a quality product.
In the long run, this will just do more damage then any gains they might have received. This is going to really hurt a lot of goodwill people had to 343 and the series on a whole.
Anyways, I just hope this gets fixed. I know a lot of people here are super passionate about this series, and just want to enjoy it. They just want to enjoy what they paid $60 for. If they ever do 100% fix this, I'll jump back in. But this is a really big disappointment. And at least to me, X1 was really going in a good direction with Spencer, and games like Sunset being released.

I took time off from work during launch week that I'll never get back to play this. I bought a fucking XBOX ONE to play this game. I have invested a large amount of money into this and I got SHIT for my investment. I'm working on Thanksgiving. Their asses can suck it up and work too. They are making way more money than I am AND they have my money in their pocket already.

God you guys are fucking rough.
Go play dozens of hours of SP content, or any of the million other games that just game out, or get some fresh air.
Do something. No this is not the biggest fuck up of all time. Frustrating? Yes. Worth having an aneurism over? No.
Relax. Enjoy life, let 343i get it fixed. I am sure they are trying.

That has nothing to do with what I just said.
That bit was more directed at the other guy I quoted. But my point stands.
Wow! That MS overlord that you want to crack the whip is the same one that rushed it to begin with...
This is incredible.
I thought there was no way in hell Microsoft would let them screw up Halo.
Something from Rare, sure, but Halo? I certainly didn't think they'd make a patch that breaks the game worse than the mess that was already there...
This is so bad... I'm actually considering firing up Destiny again... Ugh.

Bingo.
Have you seen some of the bugs in SP? Oh, they are trying? Good to know that they are trying to fix something that I already paid for and was told would be working on day one. But that's fine. It's not like this is business or anything.
So I was playing Ranked H2A and this happened

Halo CE is not right. Something about it is completely off. The netcode is just junk. I mean, pure JUNK. And only battle creek seems to pop up in team slayer lol
god this whole package is fucked
god this whole package is fucked
You mean the SP content that randomly deletes progress, loads levels out of order and refuses to unlock achievements?

I've played through all of CE and a few from the other 3 pre patch (not home yet) and never saw a medal.
There are medals? I thought they were a background thing when I saw the achievement tracker increasing. Didn't realise I was meant to be seeing medals on screen.
Huh.

Rushed what? They aren't making any new games here. They're remaking stuff that's already been made and porting stuff that's already been made. 343 had a deadline to meet and they fucked up big time.
Yeah single player is kind of fucked as well.

Sounds like this is creeping up on one of the worst launches of the generation, the way things have been going lately, that's going to be a very full category by the end of it all.
PEOPLE PAID MONEY FOR THIS
And not some tiny amount either. It's not cheap.
Any game ever if people have an issue with the way it came out, they absolutely should complain as loudly as humanly possible. Games like Assassin's Creed Unity, DriveClub and the state Halo MCC is in is absolutely unacceptable and there's no reason you or anyone else should be telling people to calm down or telling them to complain less or whatever. Gaming isn't a charity. People are spending money on this shit. Stop trying to moderate people's righteous disappointment or anger.
Multiplayer dude.
Thats the same problem it is giving me
Restart the search again when that happens.
I've played dozens of hours in the campaigns and have not had a single issue.

Low standards like yours are what allows games to be released in this state. You should demand more for your dollars.

Ah sorry. Excuse my dumb dumb.
Chill bro 343 got this
Meanwhile, go play some Sunset Overdrive™ or Forza Horizon 2™

Good for you. Give yourself a pat on the back.

it's a game that costs money. therefore it should work. especially a game that is the flagship title of the freaking console.

So what?
I think it's beyond selfish for them to release a game broken, and charge people $60 for it. Consumers aren't loan agencies. I can have sympathy for 343 Studios, or whoever was forced to work under whatever conditions led to this release.
But this isn't excusable. I don't see why it's selfish for consumers to expect a fix ASAP. Do I feel bad for 343? Absolutely. But it is what it is. They should be upset with MS (or whoever made the decision to push this out).

Oh boy. This argument again. Because that clearly means no one else has had any issues, right? A quick fucking search of YouTube will let you know not everyone is having the amazingly perfect experience you're having.
