Halo MCC disconnects and other disappointments

Hi,

Ive adressed this problem many times before on this forum and Halo support and still there is no solution. Halo MCC has a big problem with people disconnecting while loading the map, normally I would go back to the 360 version of Halo 3 to play some pvp games with people! It seems to be working on the 360 better than on MCC PC and Xbox series. Now the time is almost here where Halo 3 will go offline and MCC will be the only place to play H3 multiplayer but tbf I still enjoy the 360 version lots more than MCC, even the insane high fps and texture upgrades cant change my mind, it all looks good and plays smooth but the 4v4 standard (where h3 social slayer had 5v5) is mostly a 4v3 or 4v2 on MCC due to disconnects. So all I can say is that I do enjoy MCC just because H3 is one of the games but the state is just really bad, Id rather play a good working game with solid graphics and 30fps than MCC with highest settings, unlimited fps and horrible map rotation lol.

So Im running out of patience because I pre ordered MCC in 2014 and the state of the game was horrible, I couldnt even join a mp match, since 2018 I could finally play some online games and since 2019 we finally got a ranking system WOW! This MCC time line was so frustrating but there was 1 thing that gave me an escape from this crap version of Halo and that was the 360 version. Halo 3 on the Xbox 360 was always there for us and soon it will be gone and were stuck with MCC. I do like the idea of MCC thats why I pre ordered the game back in the day but damn it just does not have the same magic as H3 on the Xbox 360.

Needed to say this.

Thanks for reading and enjoy your games on any Halo.

for as much praise can be given to the MCC team and all the work they’ve done thus far, a criticism always lingers like a bad aftertaste in that it’s still MCC at it’s core, and you can’t fix what was an unstable foundation.

but that’s the monkeys paw for ya; we could have had a solid release schedule since 2018 with 2 fixed steam rereleases and one new standalone port for a game and it’s intended expansion (and then some), at the cost of Reach, Halo 4, and H2A being left in limbo like Halo 5 since they likely would not put the time in to bring those 3 to PC before Infinite has an established consumer base (like Halo 5)

I think the coffee machine is doing the most work at 343, the MCC team needed 4 years after launch to have an playable multiplayer, oh and they needed another whole year for the progression system, I can name much more issues here why so many people already left MCC behind in 2014. Great job MCC team!

I played Reach last week in both matchmaking and firefight and my game crashed twice in about 8 or 9 matches. Ultimately it is what it is at this point. A number of issues have been fixed but issues still remain. I still also get kicked from loading into a match. Sometimes I get a ban sometimes I don’t.

Its weird this has never happened to me before but i just got kicked right before loading into a match and my game crashed.

Hopefully it doesnt start to happen more often and they need to fix this issue for everyone.

I got banned for it too wow
