So far, we have a total of 4 players, including a friend of mine and myself:
My suggestion is, that we get online on Sunday 6pm Central European Time(+1)/11:00am Central Daylight Time(-5) and see if we get a party going.
Everybody is welcome to participate.

DERP. Read thread first ExWife.
I would get on if there is still a spot
I don't understand what exactly needs to be community tested. Okay, the BR now kills in 4 shots... cool. Again, what exactly is being tested? Nothing is going to change about how the game actually plays until they make alterations in how difficult each weapon is to use compared to how quickly it kills or the fundamental speed of the gameplay. The only thing thats going to change from this update is that now the BR is going to be the go-to rifle.
Anyone who thinks this update is going to change how Halo 4 fundamentally plays is kidding themselves. Until they make changes to the strafe speed and aim assists of the primary rifles, nothing is going to change except the skin of the most used weapon. I don't see the point of this whole grand gesture thing regarding the update. It's a friggin update, most other game developers do these things frequently and don't treat it like its a new game release.
It's cool that some dudes get to fly out and play video games with 343, but it seems like a pretty meaningless gesture in the grand scheme of things.

Sorry for asking here, but I haven't been following too closely. I heard talk about this in the podcast. Is this getting game wide deployment? Or is it going to be stuffed in some corner of matchmaking no one will play, ie. Legendary Slayer?
Edit- Thanks Odd! Reading thru that bulletin now.
"Our final changes, once solidified, will go live across all Halo 4 playlists on Monday, June 3rd." - Bulletin
So yes, game wide deployment.

Downloading or Launching?

I don't think it's "done." Seems like it still needs mass testing and a bit of tweaking.

I'll be on in about 3 hours or so.
Servers are fucked. Apparently it's always online, but there's an initial download that doesn't seem to be going all the way or fast enough for people. If it has to do that every time on launch, SMH.
I mashed A on my controller for about half an hour and it only went about 1/4 to a 1/3 of the way.

Indubitably.
I was playing with a friend the other night, after 5 hours of play he says: "Aren't they supposed to be putting the red X's back in soon?"
I just didn't know what to say..

the good old days of animated avatars.Bringing you a classic Halo 3 thread moment:
Pretty sure our avatars were also the same thing as well.

They're not changing the direction they've taken with Halo 4 but they are fixing some of the issues AND getting more involved with the community (which is good considering how badly everything was handled in the beginning). We have to wait for Halo 5 for big changes.
