Games Halo: The Master Chief Collection

I’m looking forward to the new content update, which should clean up some nagging issues.

Also, those waiting for 1v1 and CE 4v4 playlists should be pleased.

The update will include improvements to ranking and other areas, new systems and temporary bans for negative behavior such as quits, betrayals, and idling, resolutions for getting stuck at the “Downloading Latest Data” screen, and more. The update will be made available as soon as it clears certification, and we’ll also provide full patch notes at this time. Keep an eye on Waypoint and @Halo to find out exactly when the update goes live.

I am very pleased. I’ve been waiting for Halo CE 4v4 since they changed it to 2v2. However, I’m also glad that they aren’t completely getting rid of the 2v2 playlist either, since a lot of people want to experience that feeling they had on the consoles (without system-link).

Win win IMO.

No mention of missing features like joining a custom game, or after match lobbies. This is just…sigh…

Hopefully it’s something they just suddenly mention in the update notes, but we shall see.

While it hasn’t effected me yet but I see it online from some players… hopefully the downloading latest data goes away…
Also no mention of adding Halo CE and Halo 2C to rumble pit is lame… the BTB playlist changes are what ever to me. Reducing H2A is lame… looks like they want to add more objective game types to btb as well which is lame how about have a btb slayer and btb objective as separate playlist… oh wait I forgot 343 don’t know halo multiplayer… good thing H5 drops soon any ways so mcc can just be my drink coaster since 343 can’t get the multiplayer playlist worth a yoink…

More BR starts for more halo fans, get pwn AR fans. :smiley: (Don’t get mad I like the AR too, but I most of the time I use the DMR and BR).

Nothing about the dedicated servers… :frowning:

I’m disappointed that there has been no mention of bug fixes for campaign and achievements. Don’t get me wrong; MP fixes are very important. I’d just like to know a bit of what “and more” means as far as what’s in the Content Update.

I’m thinking specifically of these issues, though I’m probably forgetting some:

  • Who Needs Them? unobtainable except by installing from disc and playing unpatched offline.
  • Audio Logs stuck Done! Unlocking… for months. (These have finally started unlocking in the last few days for a few people.)
  • Campaign Playlist progress being reset to the first or second mission.
  • Some non-hosts not unlocking Safety Not Guaranteed (ODST LASO).
  • Achievements for level completion or difficulty completion sometimes not unlocking. Completion not showing up on Service Record.
  • MP achievements like Killjoy having their progress reset.

Is there still problems with Who needs them? And for Audio Logs does anyone know if using split screen or online co op resets them?

Yeah. And it was something that I remember happening in thr Unpatched version of the original ODST (I was in Iraq when It came out) don’t know it it was ever patched.

I just learned it’s easier to just go solo on easy and get them all in one go. How I went about it with MCC and that’s how I got it. Without hassle

I might have to just reinstall ODST and that might reset the data
