Here the same problems and all other problems mentioned :
- Massive FPS drop in games split-screen multiplayer Halo 4 and Halo 2 anniversary .
- It takes too long to find games with a group of friends or party.
- When you enter a multiplayer game me a message saying : " Failed to connect to the dedicated server ."
- When a message that appears is looking games ."Failed to connect to host "
I’ve been fortunate to not have many of the issues I hear others talking about. I find games and my achievements unlock properly. These are the three I have noticed
– On day one the game would occasionally lock up after finishing an online match. It largely seems to have stopped, though.
– It can take a while to find a game.-- I can’t see all my friends from the in-game roster
– Sometimes the player searching list does not show up when I start a search. I’m not sure if not having the grey boxes means it isn’t searching properly, but I still hard-quit and resume search just in case it does.
I have pretty fast internet and my NAT is open, Xbox One is port forwarded as is my friends when we play co-op.
We’re always in a party together, party chat is just the way we like it.
The game simply disconnects. I get a message that the game is about to disconnect and there is a countdown time associated with this. When the game does disconnect party chat audio dies with it. I can still see my friend connected in the party app, I can see that our mics are operating but there is no chat audio in either direction. Please note, sometimes we get that countdown but it just stops and the game doesn’t disconnect.
This also happens in the menus sometimes, it will glitch or freeze and the party chat is just gone! Oh man, it’s very annoying.
The only thing I can do is leave the party and shut down the game completely. Then I start the party again and am able to re-establish party chat. Then boot up the game again. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t save at checkpoints when you’re playing co-op?!?! Wow, was I annoyed. We played through most of Keys (second last mission in HCEA) when the game crapped out and our progress was lost.
Also having same problem with coop play. Beat missions on legendary and it’s not showing up that it is completed.

General: After every multiplayer match and when starting the game, the unlock notifications in the lower right corner wrongly show I have new videos. When in fact I have watched them all multiple times.
Halo 2 Anniversary : Game Freezes every time in the Delta Halo Mission. After clearing the Nothing But Jackal section of the mission. Has happened twice already and game does not record my progress. Puts me back to The last checkpoint in Mission 7 - The Oracle>
Halo Nightfall : STILL DOES NOT PLAY. I’m not re-installing everything again 343, this one is on you.
H2A/HALO4
Bumpers and triggers switched do not work on H2A OR HALO 4 DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO FIRE IN GHOST OR BANSHEE and halo 2 anaversay unable to dual wield
Nightfall: I could originally watch the first episode during the first few days after release. However, now it says buy halo when I try to watch it.
Halo CE
- Achievements still locked
Pillar of Autumn achievement lock!
It said: Done! unlocking…
HCEA:
Playing co-op legendary, game brings up a message every 3 minutes displaying disconnecting in 15 seconds then goes away launching me in to undesired locations.
HCE Multiplayer:
Terrible latency issues. Game freezes due to connection droping in and out causing unwanted falling through the maps
H2 classic:
Sniper shots to the head registering as body shots at range. (May be a latency issue but have not seen a change. Even with my 100mbps Internet)
H2A CO-OP:
Can’t connect to the 1st level just get the bomb armed sound repeatedly then kicked to menu screen.
- Workaround: Set your visuals and music to classic then start (This worked for me)
H3:
Some level based achievements stuck in unlocking phase since the 11th.
I’m not mentioning matchmaking due to there being a content update in Wednesday that is SUPPOSED to fix some of the currently know issues. Matchmaking works a little bit, just have to force quite after every match, search wait 2 minutes back out, search again. Once a game is found and match is over force quit. A repeat the process.
Will update as I find more annoyances.
Update 11/18
HCEA:
Finished playing The Maw on Legendary co-op, didnt get credit for completing it possibly do to the disconnecting in 15 seconds error popping up (as mentioned above).
co-op partner got his credit.
Post 11/26 Update 11/30
H2A CO-OP:Scoring
When setting to track scoring check points are not popping. When one of us dies it will subtract what it needed to subtract for the death but also subtracts the what you scored from your last known check point. This is just odd seeing how in one level we may see 2 maybe 3 checkpoints.
H3:
As mentioned in my original post I still have the level completion achievements still stuck in the Done! Unlocking… phase. To add to this i have completed all the part times achievements for this and got the achievement for completing all of the level under par time, except my level completion achievements are still stuck.
H2A MM:
Most maps the start 10/10 get stuck in creating teams message or either drop the game during map load screen. Most game start 9/10 when there was a clear 2 minute window for them to start it 8/10 (I understand that they are still working on team balancing)
Here are some game clips of some bugs that I noticed. Hopefully a dev can make sense of what the problem is behind the scenes. I’m not a Marine forum rank yet so I can’t make clickable links. Sorry for those who have to copy/paste lol.

- Constantly having issues joining/rejoining friends games from in Roster and from xbox live party- Xbox live party says friends are in your game but they’re not showing up in the Roster- Xbox live friends list shows friends online playing MCC but don’t show up in the Roster- Game has crashed countless times during loading screens before a matchmaking game has started or post game ended (loading screen hangs)- Game has crashed recently after the game has first launched - right after you press the menu button to start- Game has crashed playing H2 Campaign LASO right when a cut scene starts- Matchmaking search boxes/UI sometimes disappears when searching alone or with other players, with or without being party leader- Ranks in H2A sometimes don’t show beside your tag when searching alone or with friends, with or without party leader- Ranks have been reset four times for me so far (this is understandable though since they said they would be doing this until they fix MM issues)- UI modal windows appear behind the foreground UIBug Notes Update (After 11.20.2014 Patch) - November 24, 2014
- Backing out from matchmaking still doesn’t bring your friends in your party back with you- Joining games is still broken without any error messages saying why- Game still crashes at start screen from initial boot- Game has crashed for me when loading a map in matchmaking just before the game starts- Incomplete matches still happen- Uneven teams still happen- Friends in your party still get split up on opposite teams- Xbox LiVE party chat is still buggy (MS/Xbox issue or MCC issue while snapping?)- UI still appears sometimes behind other UI elements
Honestly, I don’t care about matchmaking yet, I’m busy trying to clear everything to do with the campaign. The main thing I’m having trouble with is I have a couple of achievements that I unlocked at launch and the progress says 100% but it’s not actually unlocked. I’ve waited longer than I should have for them top pop, so I thing this might be a small bug for the game. And some other achievements aren’t giving notifications but I still unlock them so that’s not to much of an issue except for the fact that I have to check if I unlocked it.
HCE: At the end of the maw, during the cutscenes right after chief says he doesn’t think it’s over the screen goes black and crashes. It’s happened 4 straight times. If I resume my game it starts at the beginning of this cutscene when chief boards the longsword but crashes every time. No achievements unlock either for beating the maw, beating campaign on normal, etc. essentially I can’t finish the campaign. Ridiculous.
I also experienced beating assault in the control room and the game going immediately to the library. (I just manually loaded 343 level then to beat it).
My list of known bugs-
HCEA: i finshed the game, final cutscene where chief flys away ended, screen goes black but then takes a while to load and all i hear after about a minute of waiting is a insanely loud screech!
HCEA: enemy AI spawning out of nowhere. Honestly funny sometimes getting killed when not expecting it
HCEA: the library mission right after you watch jenkins go pro vid my guns had no sound so i saved and quit, loaded back into the part where you follow the -Yoink- for an insane amount of time.
HCEA: shooting sniper while zoomed was broken. My shot would go at least 45 degrees left and i could actually see this, and have to compensate for the angle by aiming to the right of the enemy.
HCEA: warthog framerate problems
Multiplayer stats not updating in game, only on waypoint and controller keeps disconnecting in every game mode.

You have to turn off the impulse triggers in the controller settings. The option is all the way at the bottom. I had the same problem before I figured it out.
I’m guessing they already know about these bugs, but I’ll mention them anyway.
Game freezes right before it’s going to load the map in matchmaking. I think it has to do with the host migration feature since it always mentions it when it happens.
You can pick up empty weapons in HCE matchmaking.
The who killed you most stat in the post-game lobby shows the wrong person. I’ve had it say many times that I killed my teammate the most. I’m guessing the who you killed the most stat is also wrong.
Mid to long range sniper shots don’t always register. Multiple people have reported this, so I don’t think it’s a connection issue.
