Could someone clarify how co-op works? I tried for a while to join up with a friend last night and it just wouldn't happen. If he's playing, can I jump right into his game or does he have to exit and we both start from the beginning of the level? And how do you join up, I assume there's some type of lobby we join prior to starting the level.

I feel like a complete idiot not knowing this but we finally just went solo as we couldn't get into each other's game.
 
Managed to get into a single SWAT game today.

Back to campaign I go though. Really eager to get started on the Halo 2 campaign, but I said I would go in order, so I'm trying to stick to that.

It's so hard not to just skip Halo: CE though...

This is just the buggiest game I've ever played.

This is insane. MS should issue everyone a refund and give this game free to all Xbox1 users as a token of appreciation for all the bs we have have to go through.

It's not this bad though. I'm sure it will be a lot more playable in a few days.

I played Two Worlds 1 on 360 at launch. No game will ever top that for me

Hah, I played that game. The thing about those bugs though was that they were hilarious.
 
I would love to know what technical problems Microsoft is having with their servers right now. I can't believe it's been down for almost 24 hours!

Why does the status now not mention MCC at all.. in fact as a slap to us halo fans they are calling out issues on Destiny instead

"Hi Xbox members, we are aware that some users are having trouble matchmaking in Destiny and that some of you are also having a issues posting statistics to leaderboards and viewing the online state of other users on your Friends list. We're currently working hard to get these issues fixed and we appreciate your patience while we work. We'll update you again, right here, in 30 minutes."

Had a CTF match on coagulation. Took 5mins to hook up.
Played smooth then match ended and booted back out.

To be fair I haven't really been trying so it was my first attempt.

Damn warthog frame rate in the Halo CE campaign is a bummer in two player splitscreen though.

I've been able to find a lot of BTB games (just found another with ~5 mins mm time) so maybe matchmaking is finally improving.

Also Halo CE Multiplayer hasn't aged well at all lol. I played on a huge figure 8 shaped map and only saw 5 enemies the whole time.

It did mention Halo earlier.

Maybe they think they've solved it...

Was playing Halo 1...when the flood are released. Sound glitched so I restarted the game. Now it says chapter 6 was completed and put me at the start of 7. Didn't give me achievement either. Da hell.

All the matchmaking issues are annoying, but not unprecedented. Even past Halo releases have had matchmaking issues. The general bugginess of the UI is extraordinarily bad, though. I'm happy that custom games work (usually), at least.

Back when CE came out I played probably half of the game and then stopped. Then when 3 came out I pretty much only played multiplayer, but I played a lot. So I am looking forward to playing through all of the campaigns. I'm about an hour in to CE and I'm really enjoying playing it.

My 15GB update isn't done downloading so I can't even attempt to get in to a multiplayer game. I am not even going to bother until tomorrow.

Trying to play halo 3 mp and the game just stalls after the map vote screen. Restart and play two matches. After the second match the game stalls/freezes on the loading screen.

Dammit. :/

Oft hope is born when all is forlorn.
Going home from work. Thought this would have been fixed by now. Hollyfuck man. I am just so fucking angry now. I seriously dont give a shit if they the delay the game for few days but shipping something not working is absolute nonsense. I was so excited to play this :(

Wanna custom when I get off work?

Edit: After reading the past few pages of impressions, it can be as broken as Battlefield 4. . .can it? I'm pretty sure that 343 will fix it very soon though. I really hope they do since my purchase of an Xbox One will be decided based on how the MCC is.
 
Try restarting your consoles if the achievements don't pop. It should fix everything unless the game is truly glitched.

Everything was unlocking fine this morning while I played, now I just finished a level in Halo CE and the achievement didn't pop. Going into the app also shows no progress towards certain achievement, such as total kills, where it was tracking them this morning. Sigh

Same thing happened to me I just ended up using the mission list so I could play it.
