I still wait anywhere from 1-5 minutes and have gotten some "Cannot Connect: Game Full" and all of the games were lopsided but...
Progress is progress and when it works, it WORKS.

I don't know when the update went live but my Xbox has been on for about an hour and a half.
I just got into a game now. That makes 2 for tonight and in the last 35 minutes. They didnt freeze for me either so I guess that's an improvement.
Can't really agree here. The Anniversary interior has a comparatively bland color scheme, and the way the dynamic lighting plays about the original looks really cool. It's also not hurt as bad by the port as some other parts of the game.
IMO Two Betrayals Anniversary puts in the best effort at competing with its classic counterpart. Both because the new style is really cool in its own right, and because the port does very substantial damage to the original.
I really wish they'd get around to doing a good port of the original game, though. It's ridiculous that MCC CEA still locks in the new audio.

Yeah I don't know why they thought that was a good idea, just terrible.
It's here!!!!
The white XBO looks SO much better in person. Best XBO deal of the holiday season IMO.

Halo Matchmaking works, and its beautiful 
Hey, anyone still having issues, try turning off Instant On and restarting your Xbox. Apparently that can cause your NAT to go Strict. I had that issue and turning off Instant On fixed it for me.

Whoever in the lobby I just got into voted for Team Snipers with the servers being this trashy right now I severely hate you. The one guy who I'd assume was host had like 20 kills no one else on either team had more than 2 lol. So fun >_<

MP is working for me now. God, Im rusty....but these Halo CE matches online are making me cry tears of nostalgic joy.
I don't understand how this has been so bad for so many of you.
It's been broken and shitty, but I've still managed to play 68 matchmade games since launch.

Holy shit.
Let's just say that it isn't working the same for everyone. You are doing very well. I've played maybe 5 games, then again you might be playing a lot more than me.
I'm about to go test it again.

Well finally stuck the physical disk into my xbox today and six hours later the game is 24% installed, which is apparently enough to let me play the Halo 4 campaign.
I don't understand how 24% in six hours is possible. Is it MCC or is the XBONE really this terrible with everything?

How fast is your internet? It downloads the 15gb content patch when you install the disc.
Ok.

Most of the "improvements" in CE:A aren't much of an improvement at all, except some gun models and interior areas.

That's not normal. I've had a disk install in an hour or less.

I honestly think that Sabre ended up feeling so restricted by the original low-poly geometry that they just started cramming in everything they could. Would definitely explain a lot.
I'd say the water looks a lot nicer in CE:A. That's about it.
Runs like crap though
Same with Halo 4.Do you guys recommend playing the H2 campaign in anniversary or classic mode?
CE mp is actually my favorite out of the four :lol
Oh man, I haven't even touched Forge or Theater yet. Too busy with Campaign.

Mine took about 4 and half hours on launch night for disc and patch install.
Out of the five games I've been able to play, 3 of them were by myself.
Watch a few speedruns before you play the campaign then. It'll save time and frustration.
