I'm also wondering if non-English copies have full English support, or if the US version has multi-language which would most likely mean all copies are the same.

You have to switch your xbox one language to english. I play it in english and bought it from the german store

I think with MS's huge budgets, it was simply a matter of trying to get it out the door for the holidays. They need to fix it fast to save the community from dispersing. Right now, the competition is HOT.



Well, I remember Halo 2 launching without any major issues in matchmaking. Memory is hazy though.

Aye. Matchmaking is buh-roken. I had two perfect matches and then everything went to shit from my third match on. Wouldn't match me up with anyone, and the game froze on me twice.

The campaign worked well for me though. No hiccups there.
 
Played a bit of H2A.

No subtitles except cutscenes? Sigh.
Terminals also seem to dump me to Halo Channel, which beeps and dumps me back to the game?
 
This thread is moving fast, so, apologize if this has been talked about before, but...

Are there a group of GAF'rs who are always down for Halo: CE multiplayer? (since that isn't a selectable playlist atm)

If so, add me:

H3xum Zero

At work til 5ish est, but, looking to get down on some CE customs (mostly just no radar)

I hate to beg but is there anyone that would give me their bandana skull code? I had to buy digital bc I'm out of town and couldn't download the 20gb patch. I wanna beat the campaigns on legendary and that'll help alot

I want bandanna too but purely because I'm a MGS fan. Anyone want to trade their bandana for my pinata skull?


Hopefully all the preorder skulls get unlocked for everyone sooner rather than later.
 
Played two or three matches last night. Got my ass kicked all over the place. Had to leave to see why my 1 year old son was crying. Tried matchmaking again when I got back 15 minutes later, didn't work so i just played some HCE campaign. Hoping they get the matchmaking squared away before I get back on tonight.
 
Halo 3 seems to be sort of working... Fucking great when it does.

Nice to say that there don't seem to be much lag either.

Get this working 343, and you have god-tier on your hands.

Halo 2 had a closed beta, but regardless, given how unique the MP for this game is (ports from 3 different platforms, 15gb launch update and change in nature of networking) an extensive Beta should had taken place IMO.
 
Time to go to work, hope it's sort of fixed for when I'm back tonight.

Broadbandito - I couldn't find that button to swap team when you inv'd me to the custom so sorry about that.

Halo 3 seemed to be sort of working I just played 2 straight games. Was super fun.
 
Tried for 90 minutes last night and got two matches. Played one this morning prior to heading off to work. Hopefully everything is sorted out by the time I get home tonight.

Tried co-op in all 4 last night and Halo CEA was the only one that we had any issues with but it might have been my internet because it cut out afterwards. Halo 2 was fine iirc

Yeah I will try the single player of both Halo 2, to see if it will work alright, and Halo 3, to see if it wont stutter. Its strange... I think the problem is from my side. I dont know if I will need to reinstall the whole game (unfortunately its digital purchase).

Im a bit disappointed with all those probles though. :(
 
Spent two hours trying to get into two games last night.

Friend is on his way now... Is this working even a little bit better than last night, hopefully?

I am so mixed on the menus and the loading screens particularly the latter.



TV lets plow through some campaign sometime this week (I've started from CE and intend to move in chronological order).

Currently doing this with the wife actually. Once we get to 3 I think we can start 4-player, right? She's never played a Halo game btw. It's funny seeing her so aggressive since it forces you to play that way when compared to Destiny. Seriously, she just gets in there and laughs out loud with each melee strike. Never thought she'd be an aggressive first person shooter player, but Halo seems to be making her one now.
 
I was quite confused with the menus at first, but ended up getting the hang of it. I was only able to play 1 match with a GAF friend last night and 1 campaign level. It kept kicking each other from our party. It was really frustrating. And in general we could not get in any matches. We struggled just to start a campaign level (with a party). Someone invited me to their game, and I tried joining but it wouldn't let me (sorry about that).

I'm guessing others had issues last night too?

Anyways, I hope it gets resolved. Going to try again today. Hopefully I can get in on some matches with GAF people.

I got in two matches in a 30 minute timeframe. One was very laggy, but the second one was running okay, but the teams were unbalanced again. I was trying out team slayer and it seemed like I was getting in games in 3-4 minutes wait time
 
As someone who was only getting this for the single-player because he didn't own a 360, are the campaigns working well?

Other than the one npc stuck in a pillar I haven't heard too much about the campaigns. I wasn't planning on playing too much MP considering I have so many other shooters available.

It's fucking awesome. I played some of halo 1 and 2. Looks amazing and runs great. Make sure to press the back button at times to switch back and forth between the old graphics and the new graphics to check out the differences. Thought that was pretty cool
 
Just got back from Best Buy with my copy and currently installing the game. The only bad thing I don't like from the Best Buy bonus is the map book is that it's spiral bound book.
 
Really disappointed with the server issues. Been playing for 4 hours, only had 3 games.

Loving the single player though and the cinematic are outstanding. I swap between quite a lot, forget just how bad halo 2 looks now days, I mean the re-mastered version isn't top notch, but it's a billion times better looking than original haha.
 
Just sniped a jackal in H2A and he literally flew about 30 feet into the air, did multiple flips and landed in the water. I don't remember the games ragdolling and physics being this over the top!

Halo 3 matchmaking looks like the one to be at, at the moment.

I'm going to bet that this is the game that is played the most in MM, outside of maybe H2A. It's got great visuals with the increased framerate and 1080p, and it more people probably played it than Classic Halo 2. There is also the learning curve with button glitches, etc for Halo 2, so I wouldn't be surprised if Halo 3 is the most played "Classic" Halo game.

I disagree. I think H2 is gonna be the most played. It's the one that esports leagues are using for their competitions and I think it had the better maps personally.
 
Still searching... Matchmaking is soooo broken for such a high profile game haha. Having a blast playing Halo CE.. Never played it or Halo 2 so I am excited
 
Why isn't matchmaking working properly still?

Are they trying to kill the community before it even starts? You'd think this would be something they'd make sure WAS working at release. Considering it's literally half the game.
 
Delta halo semi-spoiler

the doll the jackel is teasing the grunt with changes like before, but this time in fmv quality lol

I also started to make a facing worlds style space map last night, i'm no forge expert but I usually like to make one reasonable map for team games.
