This video was recently uploaded to YouTube, and I think it needs traction on the forums.
“How Combat Evolved was downgraded on MCC | How the original vision is being lost to time”
Alongside the problem of using an inferior port of the classic Halo Combat Evolved title, another problem circulating on the MCC has been the issue of Xbox Live online co-op creating input lag for anyone that isn’t the host of the game. It’s been a problem since the game launched, and it still has not seen a fix. Playing campaign over Xbox Live with friends is near impossible to fully enjoy because of this bug.
ever since seeing that video i, too, have been wondering if 343 might notice the problem and fix it, since they’re already looking at the game code to get the MCC ported to PC
343 is well aware of the bugs that are affecting CE, unfortunately they have four other titles (six if you want to include ODST and H2A) that they’re also working on. I say that not to make it seem like other games are more important than CE, I personally believe all the titles in MCC are of equal importance, but we might need to temper our expectations on how quickly bugs will be fixed on any of our “preferred” Halo games, including but not exclusively CE.

And what of the Xbox Live co-op for the campaigns? Are they aware of the input lag that players have been experiencing since the beginning of the dev cycle?
I don’t mean to make it seem like they aren’t doing anything, they’re doing so much that, in a lot of ways, none of us deserved. I’m simply bringing errors to light.

I apologize if the overall tone of my post was taken in a negative manner, I was just trying to emphasize that we need to understand that there is a long list of bugs and it might take a bit to get to the bugs which we prefer fixed (which you do seem to understand).
Nothing is wrong with bringing bugs to the light or informing people.
