re: ***The Halo:MCC MP Discussion Thread***

I've been playing solo and haven't had any problems getting in matches. The only problem I'm having are uneven teams and the same 6 maps coming up for vote every time. There are 100 maps. Why are two of the options always TS Zanzibar and One Bomb Zanzibar? It's like Zanzibar is the only BTB map.

I play BTB almost exclusively, and have had a pretty good variety of maps/game types.

im finding games in less than a minute and they have al been 4V4

I've been running games all night on Halo 2 classic. Only dropped one game out of 20+

Played MLG style on Halo 2. College was awesome, those were the days.

Is anyone else having problems right now?

I can't find a single game. I've tried everything except BTB and Team Slayer.

can get $40 trade in for MCC. Think im gonna take it back and get Far Cry or put it towards a preorder
