I’m going to write a machinima about this, put it off for a few days, edit it, and upload it a few days after editing, and I’m about 94% sure that this will still be a problem
Holy -Yoink- just fix the game already! I wanna play some reach and rank up!
MY RANK IS SHOWING!! I THINK ITS FIXED
Please try and keep from spamming this topic, it’s meant to monitor the ongoing issues related to Reach right now.

I’d love to be able to answer that, but I’m afraid I know as much as you guys. I just work the forums.
I can speculate though - there were a few issues with Azure over the last week or so (they impacted on some of the services in my own work as we went down in a few places for a few hours). Reach itself, as noted, is 6 years old now. While yes it’s still populated it will be in low sustain - it’s not getting content updates, DLC, playlist changes or anything like that, really just server monitoring at this point I would imagine. It has Halo 4, MCC, Halo 5 and Wars 2 ahead of it now which is going to push it down the chain a little.
I’m sure though that whoever is looking into getting things back up and running are working as best and as fast as they can - no telling what actually went wrong. Could be that something failed and they need a replacement. Sucks but stuff like this happens all the time. Not always somebody’s fault and it’s not always something that can be prevented, despite having redundant backups in place.

Dropped into a custom game and my armor is carrying over.

Thank you for answering the question honestly.
Everyones rank is showing on matchmaking, its fixed
Well if it’s fixed I guess I’ll disappear from waypoint until the next problem appears. I shall see you all starside. Farewell.

Thank Jesus Christ. Let’s pray this never happens again.
Ah grand news!
See you all online then chaps
(Swat and invasion ahoy!!!)
Good morning everyone - glad to hear that things are appearing as normal for many of you. After thorough investigation, it was determined that this issue may be related stats services that are controlled on the Xbox side. We’ve contacted the appropriate teams at Xbox who have been investigating.
While it looks like the issue is resolving, we’re keeping an eye on this to make sure everything is good - please let us know if you’re seeing otherwise. Thanks again for your reports and help in resolving this.
“The Great Journey has begun…” Hence a ‘Halo Array’ has been activated and its inevitable blast will kill all it touches… hint, hint Reach Servers!!!
YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH BOOOOOOOI
This is weird, I played last Saturday and it was all good, until I started firefight my spartan’s rank and all my armory were gone. Hope they fix it soon

typical 343 fan boy. Automatically trash talks a bungie game, it gets to around 10k on weekends and 6-7k on weekdays but now since 343 can’t seem to fix -Yoink- it’s going to hurt the player count. The fact a six year old game on a last gen console has this many players is a testament to how great bungie was and how -Yoink- 343 halo games are.

hey if you guys want to make a halo that doesn’t suck, why don’t you combine the best elements of halo 3 and halo reach? Instead of just throwing a bunch of crap from CoD, titanfall and other generic shooters and branding it “Halo”. Notice how sales have dropped dramatically after Halo 4? Because everyone realized after halo 4 that the new devs would be terrible? What about MCC? Great job guys you managed to screw a remake.
Can I just say thanks for fixing the problem, but usually when stuff like this happens for a long period of time we get rewarded with something for having to wait forever. No big deal just sayin a 100,000,000 cR would have been nice. jk, lol
