Yep, but don't kid yourself that Halo 3 didn't have similar issues, they were just hidden out of view more e.g. host bridging, network throttling, host booting etc. So many told themselves that bridging for host wasn't cheating, LOL.

I still remember social even had dicks booting players for laughs. High ranked play was a total joke playing against bridgers and booters. I can't wait for MCC to have dedis up and running smoothly, finally after all these years.

Running into a cheater on Halo 3 was extremely rare, Halo 2 was basically every game past a certain level.

Gears multiplayer population was nowhere near as big as Halo's. I would say COD4: MW was the one that dethroned Halo. That game was so damn good they might as well should've named it COD: Modern Crackfare

Maybe to you. I hated CoD4 (both in SP and MP) and I considered it a regression in FPS design in pretty much every way.

And I don't think CoD4's was a blow to Halo's popularity. CoD got more popular than Halo ever was (being multiplatform helped, that's for sure) but Halo's popularity remained pretty much intact IMO. And then Reach was released...

Friday when I comeback from work and turn on my xbox, either-

1. I get a prompt for a update that fixes this garbage
or 2. I pick up the phone to fight with xbox support for my money back.



first time ever I'm returning a halo game like this. I bought it digital because I thought I would never trade it in, because these games were my childhood. but this is just disgusting

Awesome! reached the ending cutscene of the final level in CE in co-op online, got a disconnected error and ended up with the level not registering as finished on legendary or anything for that matter.

On the bright side, at least you don't have to repeat T&R or TB again. Maw Legendary isn't too bad.

Have to call bullshit from first hand experience mate, ranked objective playlist at 50 for years was a haven to host cheating and booting. Also remember in the lobby how your yellow boxes would disappear and then magically all fill up and the game would start or the search would take a long time?...yep bridging host at its finest before the game even started. How about so many quitters? A large percentage of quitters was in fact host booting at work. Don't kid yourself at high levels in almost any playlist it was rampant, not so much at launch but the longer Halo 3 was out the worse it got. Also you couldn't bridge host yourself in 3 but could in 2. How about bought accounts? How about boosted accounts? How about DDOS? I could keep going.

How many players bridged host to stop the cheaters? Therefore cheating themselves and cheating players/teams like me out of any chance to get Aussie host.

Your problem wasn't bridging. Your problem was living in the Internet shithole of the world.
