I have had good luck getting matches throughout this game's launch and this latest patch finally broke that for me rip

My experience with the update, first match found a game quickly... a 4v5 in my favor. The map starts loading and then disconnects: http://xboxclips.com/DestiniesReqium/d29d8d29-fa9c-421f-b90b-ca89fd848519
Next two games are found fairly quickly. I don't know without further testing, but it seemed like online performance felt better (hit detection, etc). But after my second actual game, it refused to find any players. Just gets stuck on "Searching for players..." indefinitely. Backing out of a search resulted in a new bug, the background would fail to load and end up with just a black image: http://xboxclips.com/DestiniesReqium/9c2c200f-518d-4fde-9d3a-ea327e0169b8
That bug was repeated after I quit the game and reloaded, and still failed to find players in multiple playlists and multiple attempts. And this was after the Server Side fix.
So my take away is, it doesn't seem to have done much of anything other then add a couple of new UI: "Joining Session" and "Retrieving Player Information."

That's pretty much what's happening.

So is it something like this, now?
Huh. An Xbox live thing?
Can anyone hop on COD or something and see if things are slow?
Found a full room in a few seconds. ;(

Destiny timed out trying to load into the tower but that happens in that game anyway.

Same here. Cannot find anything no matter how long I wait. It's dead.
It was fine (actually great) for about 30 minutes. Them they put a server side update live and suddenly it's dust and echoes.

All my luck is gone. No more games since my last post. I'm done trying. What the fuck.

I don't have an Xbox One yet but this will be high on my to buy list.
How is it?
How is it?
Was the big icon that said settings too confusing?
Save your cash. Game is broken and has been for almost a month. Halo 5 beta coming soon, so if you want to play that, then get it, otherwise, you might as well wait till you have confirmation it works 100% and try and get some enjoyment from the low player population.

Don't buy MCC until (if) its fixed.
What black background?
Prediction: nothing
You're wasting your time downloading it. Might as well wait for the next week's update.

Nah. Post update I was getting games really fast. After their server side update everything went to shit.

I got one game super quick right after the update which got my hopes up but then nothing.
Read through the thread starting from launch day November 11th. This has probably been the worst game launch in the modern online era with a plethora of bugs, glitches, problems. Everything from campaign problems, saves, checkpoints, UI, multi-player, party joining. At one point, you couldn't even get someone to join your party without having to jump through hoops, disappearing rosters, etc. They even cut a lot of the playlists to try and make it work and it hasn't.
