This is sad.
MCC is right behind Runescape on Twitch just days after launch
I don't understand the obsession with Twitch most watched, by that criteria LOL is the best game to ever exist.
HALO will keep having its audience, it will not be bigger than COD but who cares... still big enough for us to play so.. whatever.

Uhhh, why do we care again about these live stream stats?
I care more about 343i sorting these issues out so Joe Everyman can play to his heart's content in MCC, smoothly and without headache.
Nobody wants to be watch a live stream of a bunch of fucking searching screensThis is sad.

When I play custom games with my party we're fine. The second we hit matchmaking the game turns to shit. Seemed better a few days ago but last night was broken again.
Uh... no. That is not the case lol.

I can't remember the last time a console shooter was popular on twitch. Also I believe that Twitch is more associated with PC game(r)s. Why would you want to watch some one play shooters when it's not pro's or tournament related.
But it is. The map is too small for BR starts. You spawn only to get shot instantly and becomes two teams sitting across the map shooting at each other because you die instantly is you try to move.
anyone noticing that framerate drops in Halo 3 online?
I actually managed to get a game and somehow it was the weirdest thing ever.
guys would be shooting me yet my strafe that used to trip people up all the time meant nothing weirdly enough, but they were almost skipping across my screen.

Yep, especially when the map puts you with 10 players on it despite the game saying it's designed for 2-8 people.

Oh, thank god. I thought it was just me sucking. Warlord + BR = awful.
Nightfall is completely broken to a large group of people. I have the digital edition as well, and I actually watched the show on Wednesday via the Halo channel but after that, it won't let me see it. It's got to be linked to how the Halo Channel verifies you bought the MCC. Backend stuff.
As much as I am extremely frustrated at the MCC bugs, I feel that the nightmare for the 343 guys must be a thousand fold. This is one of the buggiest games I have ever witnessed in gaming. Considering how stable Halo 4 was, you have to think this has to be just a bad confluence of events/bugs/outside developer issue and project management problems that lead to this.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
I think the biggest mistake 343 made was they tried to do so much with the UI and all the feature they have added on launch. They could have easily added all that via patch later on.
Titanfall is a perfect example of this. Just look how barebones it was at launch BUT the main component worked. You could play online with friends and it did what its supposed to do. Look at Titanfall now, they have added hundreds of new things, in UI, stats and so much more post launch.
To me it looks like 343 sacrificed whole lot just to make everything worked on day one.

Maybe if you play Slayer. Warlock is all about bomb and CTF. Even if it's Slayer, still better than people running at each other with fucking SMGs. SMR starts invariably suck.

I'm using Turtle Beach X11's via the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter. When playing H3 on the 360 the sound is perfect but while playing it on the MCC the directionality is off. I was S3 on Guardian, somebody used a bubble shield at S1 and it sounded like it was deployed right next to me.
Any way to fix this on the headset?

What do you guys think the chances of either of these things happening are?
1. Copies of MCC in the not-to-distant future will be sold with the fixes for bugs/problems already on the disc.
2. A version of MCC with two discs that have all the content including fixes, patches and the coming soon spartan ops mode included? Even if it's a year out...
(Yes 2 discs works because it all gets installed to the hard drive anyways, plus Halo 4 did it.)
I'd like the second one, i think the first one is pretty fair for future buyers. Obviously these scenarios mean nothing for digital-only people.

Probably nothing until a "game of the year" edition or some other repackage. I suspect that the MP patch and the new content patch coming Wednesday will be rolled into a single patch eventually too.

This is the GREATEST matchmaking moment that I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing firsthand. Holy shit, I laughed so hard last night. I had to put the controller down.
Quick edit: Can someone gif this?

Tried Halo 2 legendary not gonna tackle dat beast in solo mode :'(
Good thing there is a shitload of singleplayer content to do but i do hope
343 can fix matchmaking next week or at least make it find a match.
1. First the respawn. Spartan hit by a Warthog.
2. Exploding ghosts.
3. The Warthog sees the destination.
Halo 2's magic.
you know you could have done them straight on legendary and it would have unlocked everything right?
The grenades in 3 are hilariously useless. And in 2 they're nukes. Good times.

Maybe he really wants to savor the frustration.
Grenades in 3 aren't useless, wat?
So many bad opinions in here today, miss SMG starts?!

I wish this was as epic as the Rendezook from Battlefield 3.

Trying to do online split screen slayer with a buddy. MCC wasn't registering his controller even though it was assigned in the main Xbox screen. Had to hard reset. Then it registered the controller in the game but then Xbox Live matchmaking D/Ced me. Reset. Then we got into the game but it gave us a black screen, then closed the game.
WTF.
WTF.
Have you done Halo 2 Legendary before?
It's so ridiculous at points that it ruins the enjoyment of the game. I play all Halo campaigns on Heroic first because it's fun and a little challenging.
In terms of balance, no, but in terms of sheer explosive power, yeah. Halo CE grenades, super powerful and can chain explode, Halo 2, super powerful, Halo 3, blast radius is much smaller, more accuracy needed.

You mean "fuck off Bungie". H2 slayer was ALWAYS SMG starts.
Master Yoshi

yeah I have... like a bunch of times, not all that hard really.
But fair enough, I like being at my wits end and on the brink of madness with legendary first, I'm a sick fuck.
What do you mean by chain explode?
Warlord + BR = awesomeness.
Just played a match earlier against a bunch of scrub lords and went 27-4.

They could have fixed that, though.
Deja vu. Still, I think people that hate SMG starts don't enjoy fun
haha I REMEMBER THIS.
