Is anyone in a custom game lobby? I've been searching all morning and haven't found a game in over 3 hours.

Halo waypoint blog from like 2 days ago still states BTB as 16 player

looking at it right now in game and it says 12. That sucks. Hope they change it

Did it mention anything percentage-wise beforehand? Mine just says "Updating..." even though the game size is 59.1 gigs :/

This is the issue I am having as well, except mine seems to be downloading the whole game. It says the game size is 59.1gb but its updating and the percentage is 37 as of now. I have downloaded 45gb before the 15gb update became available and from my data plan it is has downloaded over 15gb of data now, more like 20+gb. I don't know how to rectify it.

How do I know if I downloaded that 20gb patch?

I pre-ordered and left it to download yesterday. It's finished now. If its 59GB does that mean I'm ready to go for midnight?

Why would they do that? Every BTB playlist has been 8v8.

Maybe it's only for prerelease in order to ensure that people can get into games before launch?

I can't explain it, but I am really excited for this to unlock tonight. I came late to the Halo party, having never had an original Xbox. Anyways, I am excited to play the first two Halo games for the first time and revisit 3. 4, I need to finish as my 360 decided to crap out on me shortly after it came out.

Oh well, I am looking to get my feet wet with some serious multiplay tonight.

I am in Southern California and usually play at night, my GT is FDBMath

Welcome to party my friend! I'll shoot you a friend request. GT is the same as my name here.

If you're ever looking to play with someone on those campaign missions or MM I usually play at the same time as well.

It doesn't seem to be downloading the whole game for me again. It's at 3% right now, and judging from my bandwidth usage, it's downloading the update.

This is freaking confusing.

Matchmaking issues are hopefully due to the playerbase being miniscule right now. Only people with pre release copies or the regions just unlocked have the game.

Hopefully matchmaking times are brought in line to old standards once more people have the game.
 
So why am I still not able to purchase this either via store.xbox.com or the system? Online it shows as not available and I still can't add payment options.

EDIT - Disregard, I had to do some wacky things to get this to go. Finally got it.

Well that's how mine started. I turned the box on and it says updating but the game size says 59.1. It started at 1 percent and now its at 37%.

Question; did you download the game before the 15gb became available?

Only way to keep the framerate high perhaps?

Stuck at work all day thinking of tonight. I'm 39 years old and cannot tell you how long it's been since I've felt this excited about a game! I have the game already preloaded and ready to go.

Looking for some good people to play with. GT: Tour de Force

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
Wait seriously? Well that sucks.

Waterworks and Containment are going to be real empty with just 6v6.

WUT?!

Why? Why would it only be 6v6?

16 player waterworks is the best. Those 4 missing people will kill that map.

Hopefully they just messed something up and it changes.

Anyone know if they fixed the audio glitch from Halo 1 where it would essentially double the bass output? I remember playing Chill Out and my whole house rumbling even when nothing was going on..

Yup. Pre-ordered and downloaded it weeks before the update went live.

It just jumped from 3% to 18%. This is too damn weird lmao.

WAIT HOLD UP.

It's unlocked for people?

I need to know your locations, NOW!


I got it from the HK store.

And all you changed from your normal payment settings were your zip code and phone number, right? I guess my bank just won't let me do this then.

400+ achievements. I love achievements! I will start to waste away. So thin, so pale, so sick. Must keep playing. "You stay until the job's done".

I'm really darn excited to start this trip over again!

Today is finally release date and Now I have been playing download version of MCC as My time zone already passed 0AM. :D I'm still playing MCC, and It's 2AM... whoa...

H2A's glorious Covenant korean voice was spectacular. (I had modified previous information as that informer told false information. :p)

But because of other region is not opened yet, so I can't find any multuplayer matches yet. I want to play multiplayer, but no matches yet. Errr...

Game is out for delivery right now a day early. Awesome. Thank you Futureshop.

Edit: Now I know why, post offices here are closed tomorrow, both Assassins Creed Unity and MCC are out for delivery, if they hadn't shipped it out early, I would've gotten it on wednesday.

Sounds like a matchmaking parameter, it's not a tech issue. I will look into it. Matchmaking times will be bonkers until the wave of releases hits. Unless New Zealand breeds a lot more gamers in a hurry.


Do it New Zealand. Do it for the chief.
