What's worse than AR or SMG starts is the fact that Zenith still has a fucking Banshee on it after years of Ascension proving it was a terrible idea.

Played a halo 3 map for the first time yesterday. My word, midship looked incredible. That engine still holds up brilliantly. Got owned though as it was a single party, can't wait to get constant games so I can put a team together to bring back the skills and put up a better tactical fight. The game is currently in a buggy state but I love it so much already.
 
Has anyone figured out how to glitch out of Standoff? The old forge method doesn't seem to work. I used to consistently do it on 360 but on the XB1 I can't get it to work.

one of my crowning moments in Halo 2 was taking down a Banshee with a single SMG, it took awhile but my rage meter went MAX!!! then i learned a way to make SMG more acurate for medium range engaments
 
Finished CE for the first time and it was quite a ride, but damn if the first half wasn't 3 times as good as the second half of the game. What the hell, stop with the same corridors... I was still very pleased overall

Started Halo 2 Annicersary and those cutscenes are amazing. Really hooked me into the story right away. I've heard bad things about this game but it has left a great first impression so I'm excited to see what comes next. I'm fallin in love with the chief....

How long is it taking to get in one freaking game? My brother's been trying for 20 minutes and nothing.

"We’re seeing successful match times from anywhere from 15 seconds to 4 minutes. 4 minutes is a long time to wait for a match, but don’t quit out too quickly as it will come. If you haven’t found a match within about 4 minutes, please exit the search and restart, as this will reset the parameters and increase the likelihood of entering a match. I realize this isn’t ideal, but it’s temporary while we sort things out."

-343

If it takes longer than 5 minutes, just go back and search again.
 
I was wondering something. In the few games I've played, I see this stuttering from time to time. Is that the frame rate dropping or is that lag?
 
Lol @ ranked playlist yet we still have the fucking Banshee enabled on Ascension 2.0. Do these fools need to see Bungie.net forum archives from 2005?

Instead of just removing the banshee they should remove Zenith in general. Its a shit map in an otherwise stellar roster of maps

There's a patch! Fired up game, matchmaking, waited for 4 minutes, nothing. Tried again. Game crashed to Xbox desktop.

Oh hey, I have a new reproducible crash introduced in latest patch. Go to matchmaking, select a game, and press Y for last match report. Game crashes every time.

Okay, tried again - after several minutes got matches to a CTF game. Game hangs at "Setting up game" stage. There's no back button to quit.

I end up pressing Y to crash the game on purpose, so I can try again.

Ladies and gents, Microsoft's flagship Xbox title.
 
Been having great luck the last two hours with a friend. Finding a game in about 3 min, only been split up like every 4th game.

Shit is still broken though and do not take my post as indication that you'll have the same luck.

So I decided to remake the Cage from Halo Reach. What do you guys think?

The pic is a little fuzzy.

Even if I get into a game, people are either idle or the teams are uneven causing one team to get crushed. This makes me so sad, this is really hurting Halo's reputation.

Update- now I've managed to get a game, Y for post match report no longer crashes game.

However, matchmaking is no longer finding a game for me.
 
That remake of ............ reminds me of the Grenade Launcher ;'[

Yep, still struggling to get a game going even with the patch.

Got another weird bug too, this time achievements. When the achievement app is snapped it shows correctly that I have unlocked 45/450 of the MCC achievements. However when I full screen the app, the number drops to 42/450. The missing 3 achievements also aren't reflected in my gamerscore.

I'm guessing the issue is that they never popped up due to MCC crashing during the final cutscene of "The Maw" (should have Legendary/Heroic/Normal/Easy for Halo:CE campaign but only Normal popped).
