Not open for further replies.
The OT should be renamed "Halo never died. It was just Searching..."

About to test mo for the night. Luckily I'm out of town tomorrow so won't gett frustrated
 
"You have been kicked"

I was in the lobby, game, not even a match.

Anyone running Halo 2 customs with BR starts? That's all I want. MLG settings works for me as well

Thanks to my terribly slow connection, it's taken me a couple of days to download the day one patch. I was at 95% when it asked me to download another patch. I accepted and now my download status has reset to 4% and has stayed there for the past 5 minutes. Am I redownloading the entire day one patch? Is there any way to check the size of the download on the xbone?
 
I like how people assume you can just shit out a patch in a day or 2.

Cause of problem needs to be found, solution made, solution tested, solution optimized, solution tested, solution sent for certification (which has to be done for system integrity) solution deployed.

Difficulty of this is higher because of the multiple layers that need to be worked on, looked at, tested, optimized.

It's not fun for you and it is not fun for them.

Dangg Digital-Hero straight up dawged you.
 
McDangles? Yeah he's awesome, but this MM is not.

As disheartening as the wait times have been I can't deny how fun Halo 2 classic is when I do get a match. I missed it.

I dont understand how 343 still doesn't have file shares accessible on their website. I want to find custom games and maps that others create.

Multi bomb assault on Bloodline.

Game starts, everyone leaves base, nobody gets bomb, pretends it's slayer.

I grab the bomb and walk into the enemy base twice and score uncontested

Did Halo player IQs drop while I took a break from the franchise?

Yes, in 2007.

I don't see how you can comprehend 343 giving a shit about this until way more important stuff that is currently broken is fixed... I'm sure 343 were well aware of how fucked MCC was going to be at launch, so naturally they have had to prioritize the essentials before they even consider looking into stuff like this.

Yeah that crash occurred when I wanted to see what weapon I got the most kills (SMG).

Do not Push A to view more details about the game.

The game does that every time you launch it for the first time from non-sleep mode.

My average wait time is 5 minutes here for a game. Usually about 2-3 minutes I will start seeing players on my screen, and then suddenly the last group pairs minutes later.

I highlight the playlist I want for about 3-5 seconds, and then select it. I don't jump into the playlist like I do for other multiplayer games after selecting find game.
I think this will help some people.

Been getting games.

Damn son this update said you like searching for players? Well here you go. Search even longer.

I know it wasn't a mm update, for the posters who can't detect sarcasm.

Finished Halo 4 earlier. Definitely my least favorite.

What I did like:
- Graphics were an improvement
- Enemy weapons were improved and I almost enjoyed them more than UNSC weapons
- Cortana I felt was an improvement and had more of a focus
- The Composer

What I didn't like:
- Aside from Cortana, Chief and the Covenant, it almost didn't feel like a Halo game (at least compared to the first 3)
- Promethean enemies were annoying and thought the enemy design was kind of boring
- The setting change was unwelcomed by myself
Needed more Halo
- The level design felt way more closed and linear, and there were way less chances to utilize vehicles

With that said, I still enjoyed my time with it (even though by the end it was feeling like a bit of a chore), and I look forward to what 343 brings us with the next Halo.

Also the Composer scene where
everyone gets incinerated literally dropped my jaw. That was gruesome and horrifying, and I applaud 343 for that.

I will be watching this thread. Please post results. Pleeease let there actually be results...
I haven't crashed after any games yet (ive played 3 since the patch went live ~45 mins ago) and matchmaking seems to have undergone a mild improvement (though that could just be luck? I've had a 4v5, 2v4, and 4v4 so far with only a few mins matchmaking)
 
343 has outright said this patch has no matchmaking improvements. That's going to have to wait until next week. This patch addresses campaign bugs, UI glitches, and multiplayer party issues.

ranked playlist is basically unranked right now anyway considering they are definitely going to reset it once everything stabalizes and they fix that boosting glitch...
