Halo The Master Chief Collection |OT| Halo Never Died, It Was Just Missing In Action

Not open for further replies.
I just played my first match after searching for about 6 minutes.

It was an H2A match 6v4 and my team got destroyed.

I went negative by a lot.

I didn't notice any lag though.

After the match I got stuck on a loading screen.

In situations where the game is hugely unfair I always see if I am host by pressing A on a name in the scoreboard, if it allows you to kick, you are.

I then just kick everyone and feel better about it.

So is anyone else having as much freezing issues as me ? I just logged on, played one match, and it stays at the loading screen after, requiring a quit to the dash.

Frankie did say that today we would get a patch to fix some SP issues, right?? I am almost sure I've read this at his post in the other thread yesterday.

I ask this because we still have no updates.

I remember one of the updates yesterday mentioning a patch today also
 
Well, I kinda played two matches just now.

First one was 4v3 on Halo 3

Second match didn't even load..

Any why is everything slayer? Where are the objective matches?
 
I've had tons of them.

I'm sure there are a lot of people in here who have had really bad ones. But I think most are exaggerating.

Nobody is exaggerating anything. If anything, you're the one who is exaggerating. There's no way you can truly be having "tons" of good MP experiences while everyone else is able to do barely anything.

BTW dont ever do 8v8 team slayer on Rat Race LOL.

We did it last night on a GAF Custom and OMG the hilarity and carnage lol.
 
I was able to play a big team one bomb on zanzibar last night. Actual 5v5. The only problem was everyone but one guy darting off to play it like slayer...sigh, just like old times. oh well, still won the match at least.

I managed to play a couple of matches of Anniversary on Ascension or whatever it's called now. The second match was 1 flag CTF and a lot of fun on that map.
 
I actually now wish we just got Halo 2 Anniversary. Full SP and MP with all the original and new playlists. No mix and match games. The quality would have probably been better than under delivering.
Just a quality Halo 2 game would have sufficed.

Been looking for a game for the last 30 minutes. If this continues through the weekend, I am refunding and never buying anything from 343 ever again.

I tried some co-op playlist and tried to get into a team slayer game with a friend but neither were working. When trying co-op neither one of us could join the other without a host failure to connect message.

However, he was able to get into a Team Slayer match. I also noticed that the Roster was never showing anyone else correctly from my friend's list. So this made me wonder if the problem was on my side. I went ahead and cycled my router/modem and hard reset the XB1.

After that there were no problems. We played several hours of co-op on the Halo CE playlist with no issues.

Just in case you don't know if it doesn't find a lobby after about 3 mins just back out and search again. Also Team Slayer is working decent for me.

Yeah, so after four days of ZERO matches, sometimes after up to 15 minutes of waiting in matchmaking, I'm done with this game. The campaigns are cool and all, but multiplayer was the main draw for me. Just returned to Gamestop for in-store refund credit and applied it to Dragon Age: Inquisition coming next week.

I never thought I'd sell or trade in a Halo game (still have Halo: CE, Halo Anniversary, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 4, and Halo ODST)...but there it is. I might pick it up later on down the road when it's on sale around $30 and matchmaking is solid. We'll see.

It's almost like you didn't pay attention to any of the advice on matchmaking. No wonder you barely found any games.

I'm tempted to agree on the assumption that we'd have a more stable, consistent experience. Also, more H2A maps <3

Oh stop it. I do the same shit, back out after 3 minutes and guess how many games I find? Barely any. This game is broken as fuck. Nice job blaming him for "doing it wrong" though. It shouldn't be our job to finagle and finesse the system to get it to do what it should be doing automatically.

And why would I want them?

Me and many other people tried all of the ridiculous little work arounds and tips and we're still having major issues. It's cool if you can actually get into games and play it, more power to you, but I am just as frustrated as the dude you quoted and was having the exact same issues. MM is completely broken for a lot of people.

Fucking THIS.

Sweet Jesus...

How were you guys able to keep a stable custom game with 16 players going? Last night with Mix & Co. it was a shit-show. Either the game would lag or we could never get the in-game party to work without either people being randomly dropped or the maps failing to load or just freezes in general.

Share with us your magic!!!

Stop blindly defending a broken game and blaming the poster.

Game should not have been shipped in this shape.

Ridiculous.

343 should pay you with all this shilling.

Oh you know the usual. We sacrificed a Goat, all of us offered our first born, and made some blood & stool pacts.

I'm tired of all you trying to shove this shit down our throats, you can return the game without shitting on those of us who the game is actually working for.

It's getting irritating seeing everybody blame us for enjoying the game especially when some people are still sitting in lobbies for 15 mins.

I've been getting into games in under 2 mins consistently for 2 hours, with zero lag.

Stop blindly defending a broken game and blaming the poster.

One post.

ONE F'ing post is considered shilling.

Wow, bravo man, bravo. Great argument.

LOL
