hmm, havent run into any of those, but i do agree with you on that 343 shouldn't outsource these things ever again.

I'm pissed off now. First they launch a broken game. Then they say the update will be Wednesday. Then they delay said update. I download the update, now I can't even play the game.when I try to go into matchmaking It says DOWNLOADING THE LATEST MATCHMAKING DATA. PLEASE WAIT. It has said this for the last 1/2 hour. Doing a hard reset doesn't fix it either. At least I could play the game pre-update even if it was halfassed.

that message has appeared in previous halo games as well in times of server maintenance or downtime.

Halo 5 better work perfectly...

meh, there is a difference between  getting old games   to work on new servers than a new game built for one. not really indicitive of anything.

I was not assuming anything, I was thinking from the halo ip stand point. Having another broken experience at first could be quite pejorative going forward.

alright, i take it back. ground pound looks awesome.

Titanfall spoiled me real bad. Every competitive fps now feels slow and repetitive compared to it imo. I really like that dynamic between Titans and Pilots and the different AIs to help call your Titan. In other fps all you do is run and gun through other players.

Imo the only incoming game that'll be as interesting imo is SWBF3 because of the AI, vehicles, Jedis and the enemy players. Don't get me wrong I can't wait for Halo 5, especialy now that the game is faster. But vehicles imo are a game changer in multi and I can't wait to see what H5 will bring. I played CODAW this week and the multi isn't my thing but man the coop is incredible.

So I've been playing mcc since the update for a couple hours. Some positives quite a few negatives

Firstly matchmaking is defiantly quicker when it works. But it doesn't always work. It gets stuck in connecting session a lot. It won't carry on a game into the next with the same people. Also playing with friends is basically impossible still. Really sucks that I can't play with my friends. Also I lost a rank when I had a tie game.

So all in all if say the update was moderately successful if u play by urself. But if u want to play with friends don't even try. Game needs more playlists. Doubles, halo 4. And it needs more ranked playlist than that one. It only has 5 maps(never saw bloodline at all, not even to vote for it)

Jan from Xbox support says Microsoft is giving away something in game for all owners of mcc on the 24th of this month. Might be true... Might not.

If it is true the only thing I could think of that's "in game" would be free maps or halo 5 beta early. I really doubt free maps because max hobberman said even doing six was extremely difficult and I doubt they could release a new one that quick. And besides what good would that do if the mp isn't working right. Releasing the halo 5 beta early would be smart because it would allow us to play something that is functional.
