I only care about ranked playlists, and functioning hit markers. If those aren't in, then I don't want to play it still.

This. Hit detection is still awful most of the time, and not having ranked playlists sucks arse.

I just want a dedicated CTF playlist and the hit detection to be fixed. That isn't asking a whole lot.

I would tell y'all to back off 343's nuts and give them a chance to fix it, but that point has long since past. Ain't nothing defensible about this mess.

Apparently they aren't beta testing the CU anymore. Who the hell knows anymore.

quote:

After further evaluation, the team has determined that that final testing for the content update will be completed internally, and we will not be conducting a beta test for the next CU. Also, it was determined that the additional time and work devoted to the beta would’ve actually postponed the public availability of the content update. Lastly, there were some added challenges surrounding the CU beta – including an extra series of required updates and rollbacks - that made us take a step back and reexamine the CU beta. Ultimately, this plan will allow us to deliver the smoothest possible experience, and ensure that the next content update becomes available as soon as possible.

Progress on the CU continues, and we’ll work to provide an ETA once the final date is locked. As stated last week, our current focus and priority remains delivering the upcoming improvements to the matchmaking and party systems, but the team is also working on and prioritizing additional items beyond this, and I look forward to discussing these – a lot more – as we get closer to those updates.

Lastly, the playlist team is looking to update the playlist lineup with some new options that were mentioned last week, with the soonest additions coming in the form of Team Snipers and an updated cross-game Rumble Pit playlist. Team Snipers will temporarily replace SWAT as the featured playlist, and Rumble Pit will replace Halo 2: Anniversary Rumble. The objective-only playlist is receiving finishing touches and spot checks, but will not be part of this update. As we’ve stated previously, we’re keeping an eye on data and feedback to determine which playlists stay in the mix, and which are swapped out for new experiences.

I wonder if there are any lawsuits going up against 343 right now. I'd happily jump on board with them for the shite show that is Halo:MCC

As frustrating as it has been, I feel I can say it works very well overall, and it's been that way for a little while now. That said, there have still been some issues, but it works well overall.

No. I've been playing regularly every week. When I say a little while, I do not mean for several months. 1-2 weeks, maybe less has been pretty much fine minus a few annoying, but not game-breaker issues.

Oh ok. I played about a month ago and it was still turning up games with uneven teams

Have you tried online parties? 343's incompetence in this area is mainly why I hate this game with a passion

I've mainly been playing with my bro, although we've been playing with another lately. So 2 to 3 at most. The only issues I've really had is having to reinvite after games occasionally, but our quick fixes have worked consistently until they hammer out the details.

This happens, but it seems to be a case of the game is matched properly and someone quits or something. Not 343's fault there. Rare split up of party members.
