This is getting annoying!!! The two games I was able to get into so far have frozen at the loading game and map data part and so I haven't actually been able to play. Any day now...sorry I have very little patients.

Is anyone else having this problem besides me?

Bungie's backends are getting hammered. They are aware and working on it.

PLAYLIST DATA PENDING DOWNLOAD FOR 1 hour now :(

I actually downloaded the beta in 15 min! :(

I like it! Better than H 3 judging by the 4 games I played, the armour abilities add a lot to the experience. Server problems not fixed yet? Fudgeplops...

Ok thanks for the heads up.  I'll keep trying and hopefully I will be able to play a game or two.

So I was finally able to play a few matches and so far I am LOVING it! I haven't quite gotten use to the new controller lay out but it is fun none-the-less.

i downloaded the beta, and when i click the play beta button it doesn't even put me in the lobby. It just asks me if I want to redownload the beta. Am I doing something wrong, or is the beta completely down atm.

How do you assassinate

I like the game but haven't had much time to get good or anything because of the server problems.. kind of makes the experience a little worse.

I will download the Beta when i get home from work, I'll leave it downloading while I go to the gym for 2 hrs
