installed the update but the game is still broken i cant get past the bit telling you about the bugs and that 
Game stuck on “waiting for players” but other players are playing.
I think this game has a connectivity bug, it seems like half of the games I play, either my ally or the enemies or even both of our allies drop out of the game as soon as or before the game starts. This doesn’t happen in any other game btw.
Cutter sometimes says “we are losing” when you are clearly winning
Hello 343! big fan of what you are doing, and i am really looking forward to see the final version.
an issue i have noticed with Domination is sometimes i will be winning the game (drastically) and then i’ll hear captain cutter yell ‘HURRY UP WE’RE LOSING’ (or something along those lines) when my team reaches 3000 point or something like that, however the opponent has 1000 left and we have 3:2 points. i am clearly not losing and i am on the verge of winning, so i don’t know why he says that.
hope it helps!
Even after the update it freezes every time with the multiplayer menu partially loaded (sometimes just boxes, sometimes boxes and a few symbols, once the picture and text).
I haven’t been able to play a single game.
Weird thing is, on a different Gamertag on the same xbox it works.
Idk if this is a bug but recorded a match were me and teammate where winning bout 3500 to 1200 controlling 4 of the 5 and at 17 min mark game tells us both defeated and gave them win the only thing that stood out was that they rushed and took one of our free bases but we still dominated
I can’t play the beta at all, every time I get to the menu screen I press the start button and it starts the tutorial video but it always freezes at the beginning and just shows on my screen halo wars 2 I can’t even play!

If you hammer B it gets you onto the multiplayer menu and skips the tutorial video. Problem is, it just freezes on the multiplayer menu.
I’very yet to be able to play past the first day of release. Got about 4 games in then decided to play it the next day. Haven’t since. Game either crashes, freezes or just won’t connect to the server
I was playing and I had the lead and Cpt. Cutter says we’re losing even though I was winning.Then all of a sudden it says I lost even though I had the lead.BS.Hopefully this problem is fixed.Trust me,I know what the lead is.

That happens to me too.It’s weird.
half the time the main screen doesn’t even load
middle of a game and game crashes or frezes
please fix this thank you
I gave my extensive list of bugs, here’s an edit of a couple more:
-if you command your troops to go immediatly from your base across to the opponents side, they attempt to cross that area that looks like a light bridge, resulting in them not completing the command, getting stuck, and occasionally becoming unplayable.
-on domination point A, occasionally troops will spazz out, and sort of stutter up and down rather than taking objectives.
-if an enemy is taking one of your points and you don’t have vision, occasionally you can see through the fog of war to some of the troops they have on that objective, and even drop commander techs such as the suicide grunt squads on them, despite it being completely within the fog.
-recycle buildings animations are clunky, when you go to recycle, the time it takes to be able to build on the turret or building site feels inconsistent and uncomfortable, and occasionally that menu Overlay is just easier to close out and reopen before starting a building.
-starting yesterday, I noticed my screen panning occasionally spazzing out. For instance, it would seemingly without reason slide(faster than if I’m holding lb to pan) up or down the map, causing me to overshoot objectives, troops, and often followed by a bit of lag.
-sometimes the game crashes upon entering a game, and when it restarts, it says it’s disconnected from the Halo Wars 2 server. What’s curious here, is that my friend can remain in a lobby, it will not let me connect, and yet I will be talking to thay friend via xbox live chat, indicating that it’s not my wifi, not even necessarily server side, but perhaps an issue with how the server is communicating with the game per console.
EDIT:
-voicing: playing as atriox, I’ve noticed if I destroy my own building(recycle) to build something new, the line spoken is “an enemy has destroyed our building!” No they didnt, that was me silly! I’m sure it’s a placeholder line, and there are a few more like it, but heads up!
-voicing: playing as atriox, often at around the halfway marker of the game, we could be completely destroying the other team, 4 objectives to 1, and for some reason atriox will say something to the effect of “hurry up, the enemy is nearing victory!” Even in games where, for example, one disconnected and the other has been afk all game. No no silly atriox, that’s theirrrr score going down, not ours!
If I find more I’ll update this reply to the thread rather than making a whole new one, fun beta, kind of a mess, but plenty of time to fix plenty of problems~

For me 100% of the time.
Multiplayer menu always freezes.

> My game seems to freeze up when I press start on the title screen. I’ve tried closing the app and restarting, I’ve tried signing out of my profile and signing back in, I’ve even tried powering off the xbox and unplugging the power for 30 seconds. Still no luck. Anyone else having the same problem? Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this and move past it?

I found that if I hit the start button immediately I don’t have that problem. I was having that issue until I started to hit start the moment it let me.

Do not hammer b lol. Just wait about 5 seconds, and then skip. I’m not sure if it tries to use the video to buffer or do some underlying process for some reason, but if you wait a few seconds, like as the video actually pops up after the halo wars 2 title, and then skip, it seems to work, I make it consistently past that screen, and usually past the start screen as well.

Yeah it worked for me thanks. Just a shame it has been so buggy at launch.

A beta will be buggy, but I would expect a starting screen to not be part of the problem, that seems a bit silly/unprofessional/lazy honestly.
