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.

Can you combine that with left bumper to jump and right stick click melee?
 
Just played a full h2a playlist match 4v4. No drops no issues.

Have just been put int another 4v4 after about a 2 minute wait.

Things seem to be improving.

Well that's a new one. Finally got into a ranked game of H2A. Got matched in a 3v4. The other team went 3 kills up. Then all of a sudden the game ended and it gave them the win. Nobody quit.

They'd better reset the ranks and stats after this abortion of a launch.
 
Well, installing off the disk and then downloading the patch wasn't too bad. 15 minutes for the intial download, and 10 minutes for the patch. Don't see why so many people had trouble with it. is it the digital version that's having download and update issues? If so, kinda glad I went the boxed route!

It's a 15gb patch, you're on fast internet.

Standard UK internet. Which is a step up compared to a bunch of countries I guess. I thought Xbox Live in general was having issues though? Or is that over now? May explain why the live update went smoothly with no issues or stalling.

Some people are having issues, according to Reddit anyway. I had no problems at all but I was really worried about pre-loading.

Then in my next ranked game, it's a 2v3. However it's decided that my friend in my party should be on the other team and I'm in the 2.

I'm not sure how they've fucked this up so much. Abortion of a launch.
 
On the plus side, there's a shitload of single player content to enjoy until the matchmaking works. Halo 2 at 60fps feels almost alien to me, it's kinda weird!

Never tried 1-3 on co-op but 4 was fine connection wise, going to test it later.

Up to the arbiter missions on h2a with online co-op. No lag issues tbh.

Hmmm! Thats good to hear. Maybe the problem is only
with Halo CE?


Playing with people locally, country-wide, or in another country completely? Would be interesting to get info. Online co-op was kind of the main reason I got this.
Id like to know it aswell!
 
I forgot the sheer amount of pleasure I gain from riding around in a Scorpion blowing Ghosts and Banshees across the game world.

They should make a spin off game called Halo: Scorpion Commander

My install is stuck on 3% at the moment, your internet is faster than standard.

"Battle it out in 16-player warfare with vehicles across a mix of Halo games. 6v6"

Hmmm

Doesn't matter either way as I haven't found a single player in any playlist yet, I hope they fix this soon though. 12 players isn't enough for some of these maps!
