My copy hasn't even showed up from UPS yet (live in a really busy part of SF), and y'all are making me worried I'm not going to be able to play some online matches tonight like I want to.

No need to worry...you're not going to play any online matches tonight.

i hope they release the soundtrack for H2A. So good.

Also, for any Forgers in the house, Magnets are completely broken.

-when you rotate a piece while you have it snapped to an object with magnets enabled, it unsnaps. this didn't happen in halo 4
-magnet snap isn't as accurate or predictable as halo 4
-using magnets drops the framerate when you're moving a piece in an area with other pieces, even if it's not very dense.

They are releasing the soundtrack, today I believe. I actually prefer the older version; I notice the difference for the better when I switch back

Thanks for opinions. I was trying to remember how 343 handled H4's issues at launch and couldn't recall if they were reasonably quick at resolving things

343 definitely are on top of things, as they were the ones who spent all the time on the multiplayer work (well, the coding and matchmaking) while Saber Interactive and Certain Affinity did the remastering. The campaigns run fine, it's the multi side that's wonky.

Now it's telling me I'm not connected to Xbox live when I try and play a game online. It'll probably be working again by the time I go back to work on Thursday.

And why would I want them?
Just got put in a game where it was seriously me vs 4 other dudes, and that was the way it started too. Fuck this bullshit man.

The game crashes after every match, and it's a gamble to even get into one, but i'm pleasantly surprised by how people are voting. So far it's been an even mix of all 3 games being voted for in Team Slayer. Halo CE is still awesome fun and holds up really well.

in the handful of games I've been able to get into, the overwhelming majority of votes go to H3. I just want to play CE :(

Just like sunset Overdrive, I had a good shopping experience with Halo at Best Buy. I not only got a DLC code, my usual 20% off the game for being with Gamers Club Unlocked, but also a free multiplayer map book and $10 off the game for pre-ordering ($10 in rewards points that you can use instantly). Bring my purchase price down to $38.

Too bad I have to wait until tomorrow for it to fully install.(Damn 15 GB patch)

Forgot how bad some levels were in halo. With GTA coming out next week, I don't know if I'm keeping this. Nostalgia is a bitch.

Is anyone else having trouble getting the Halo CE anniversary music to play?

I selected it before I started the campaign and all it plays is the original OST.

Damn it the little things are annoying me... headset mix is just so messed up. Can hardly hear my friends and little no no settings for the audio in the game. Beyond that the waiting for a damn game to start I am getting sick of this loud menu music which does not seem to want to get turned down..


UGHHHH Fix this 343

According to Xbox, matchmaking should be working now...

The only thing for a support alert is seeing leaderboards and statistics.

Is there some trick I gotta do to get this game to install? I stuck the disc in my Xbox One and nothing happens. Tried taking it out and putting it back in and still nothing happens. Tried turning it off and on again, still nothing.

Audio mix is awful. Was in H1A back on 360 too. They for some reason feel the need to set the music volume so goddamn loud compared to voices you can't hear worth a shit in new graphics/audio.

Well first time ever playing Halo and I have started with number one

Not far in but gotta say I'm impressed!!! Great music and narrative! Looking forward to seeing how the story line goes from here :)

For once I maybe glad I have waiting for something and not jumped in before :)

For me multiplayer can wait as the halo story is why I'm here :)

Also I would love to turn that music down a little for those night time sessions, can't hear the voices without someone shouting for me to turn the music down lol

Disconnect from the internet, otherwise it will install the patch as well then once installed re connect. I think that maybe your issue.

How did you get the 10$ reward points instantly? I preordered online for store pickup and it said I would be emailed the 10$ coupon later.

I just played a round of team slayer, no lag smooth as butter. Also I wasn't booted to the menu after the game like some people, so it is possibly improving.

It's not installing anything, it's not doing anything. I'll try to disconnect the internet but it acts as if I have not inserted a disc at all.
