For the first time in probably two years I am back on xbox(360). When I got onto reach, it shows me as a recruit, and doesn’t show my real armor or rank anymore. I am a recruit with the standard armor. When i go into the start menu, I see all my old stuff. Why can’t I see it in the “my party” slot? Also, when I went to matchmaking, it won’t even show me anything about the population or let me change game mode. It just says “playlist:offline”. I thought you could still see the matchmaking populations even without live. Do you need live now(I don’t want to buy live if the game is dead or dying within a year)? If I do end up buying live, will my real player show up instead of the default?
The Halo Reach server appears to be having technical difficulties at the moment. This is why your rank and armour aren’t loading correctly.
The halo reach servers often have bugs. In addition the servers of halo reach are the same as halo 3, I think 343i prepare the servers for halo 3, that’s why there are bugs.
