Unable to play arena as a fireteam with friends. Send invite or join and we are immediately broken up when we try to enter a match or do anything. One gets booted back to the main menu and the other gets sent to the match. Now my brother has been banned from the halo arena for quitting on these failed attempts…
So today we were able to play but still seeing some buggy issues - when my brother came online and started halo, I was removed from my current match with a message “your fireteam has changed” even though we had not initiated anything. Then when we actually joined as a fireteam, my brothers xbox was showing me as offline but then at the start of our match and the end of our match he received notifications from xbox live that I was online, even though his friends list still showed me as offline.
Please note we do not have these issues playing Destiny and we are able to play alone on Halo 5 online wothout issue. Clearly an issue with how Halo 5 communicates with xbox live, friends, and fireteam.
