Forums - Gaming - Major Save Bug In Halo: MCC

I have been playing through Halo 2 and have encountered a save bug that is so frustrating to me I am done with the game entirely.

First, I have to say I am not a huge Halo fan, never have been. I always considered the franchise a bit overrated. That changed as I played through Halo CE, for the first time in many attempts to play this game I thoroughly enjoyed it. I played the game 'til 4 in the morning completing it and when I was done I wanted more Halo.

Playing through Halo 2 has been a nightmare, none of the checkpoints or game saves are working past Metropolis. I've spent 2 days playing through Halo 2 and this is the third time it has kicked me back to the Metropolis stage. I don't know what's going on or how to even report this stupid bug, but it has totally ruined the experience for me. I refuse to play through it again to have the game save and checkpoints not matter. 

I am so angry right now I slammed my Xbox One controller for the first time. I was really enjoying the game but not enough to replay the same areas 3-4 times. And I know you can choose the stage to start on but it still leaves me playing through an area I have previously played through and it this point that is unacceptable to me.

This did not happen with Halo CE and I have no idea if it's going on with the other Halo's as well. I have no plan to find out now either, I think MS and 343 released this game too early. Even if they patch this in a few weeks it will be to late. I will have moved on and my hunger for Halo will be satisfied by Far Cry 4 and Smash Bros.

Edit: I noticed one of Xbox Ones features isn't working with this title as well. If you turn your console to stand by mode and return a few hours later, you can usually pick up right where you left off. Not so with Halo MCC.

Edit 2: The feature works with Halo CE and I am guessing it may work for the other games as well. However, it is not working with Halo 2.

Strange I haven't run into any save bug (Halo 2). Anyway sorry to hear that, hope you enjoy Far Cry 4 and Smash.

Thanx, I think I may be over reacting a bit. I am just so angry and frustrated at the moment.

Awesome that you haven't ran into the same problem, I still think it's a great collection and was worth the purchase. It made me more interested in the franchise than I have ever been. I think back and maybe I just didn't play the game at the right moment, playing through Halo CE was amazing for me this time around. 



have yoi updated the game?, like is your console connected to net at all?

i was having save issues in h2, and lots of issues in h4 that made it borderline unplayable, but the latest update resolves a lot of them

Yes I updated the game, I also noticed that one of xbox key features is not working with this game.

When I turn off my console while playing FH2, I can turn it back on and continue right where I left off. It's not working with Halo MCC, and once again, after convincing myself to dive back into the game, it has kicked me back to metropolis.
