It's only a minor gripe (given the huge pile of shit that is matchmaking right now) but why is there no option to back out from one playlist to another without losing everyone in your party? That shit is annoying.

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
Just woke up. Matchmaking still fucked? If yes then no point trying it before i go to work

If after a few minutes you're unable to find a match, exit Matchmaking and then begin searching again.

oh blow it out your ass 343 your shit is fucked get the fuck outta here with your comcast'esque troubleshooting

When playing split screen team slayer on one xbox is there anyway to ensure you're put on the same team in matchmaking? (Playing 3 player split screen on one console, we all have live gold memberships).
 
I've been getting a couple of strange glitches. Some really awful screen tearing that randomly shows and also every now and then the enemies turn invisible for just a second or so. Nothing that is worrying me too much just some things i've noticed. Loading times also seem to be pretty bad considering that game is installed but i can deal with that.

Overall having a fantastic time with the game. It's easy to forget how hard the halo 2 campaign is, it's nice to actually have a challenge. Don't think i'll ever be able to win the campaigns in 3 hours, seems crazy (mainly for halo2 anyway).

Having so much fun with this game. Outside of SC2 and smash bros i doubt i'll be playing anything else for a long time.

Managed to find a few games but it's very frustrating as I just want to play.

It's taking me a little while to get back in the swing of things though.....and I keep pressing LT to ADS and trying to sprint! Ha

I've also had to quit and restart the game twice after getting a black screen when coming out of a matchmaking game.
 
Well, this has been one hell of a disappointing launch. I haven't gotten into one match since it's been unlocked, also Halo 2 on Legendary is crazy difficult and my ego has taken a hit.

If you go into Options screen you can change the controller button layout, the 2nd preset adds LT to ADS and right bumper to grenade. Works really well. Also allows you to change it in all the games.

PS: Aside from matching making not working, custom games also appear to be broke now. The Power of The Cloud(tm).

Just got done reading the Assassins Creed Unity thread. Now I come here and read about this being broken too (be it in different ways but still). Damnit that's 2 of the 3 games I'm getting today that aren't working right. What is going on with this gen... Oh well.. Sunset overdrive will be fun.
 
This sounds like a mess.

Who would have thought that this gen Sony would handle the launch of a new bungie IP better than Microsoft would handle the launch of bungie's old series?

Crazy times.

Sadly the release is quite fucked up. I had to reinstall the 15gb patch, while some the entire game. It has downloaded already for me, but I still cant play (am at class now). And it seems that matchmaking is still not working. :(
MS should communicate saying they're working at it.

God I am so tempted to buy this digitally while I wait for my collectors from Game UK...


Got to hold out and jus buy Dragon Age with that cash.

Anyone chance It will come today for anyone that has ordered a launch game in the U.S. from Game UK?

If anybody is surprised this happened - the multiplayer portion went gold a week ago. That's very very late in the development cycle. They shit the bed, basically.
