BTB has always been the worst play, list, annoyingly its my favourite but I find if im alone I find games handy enough, the single game playlists (halo CE, halo 2, halo 3, halo 4) load up games really fast eve in a party as does Halo 2 Anniversary playlist. The need to add ranking now though...only H2A has it since launch. :x

Halo: The Master Chief Collection Update 3.13.15

Thank you for your support, patience and engaged feedback since we launched Halo: The Master Chief Collection.

Our most recent content update has normalized and improved matchmaking and the in-game experience for the majority of fans. We at 343 are continuing to work to improve that experience with the Master Chief Collection. Your passion for Halo is what has fueled our team these past months and inspired the project in the first place.

We have another content update coming in April (we’ll be doing some things on the server side to help improve the experience between updates), and we’ll provide more details as we get closer to launch. We have an ongoing commitment to our fans to make this experience the best it can be. We want fans playing and enjoying this collection for years, and you’ll continue to see improvements to the experience in the coming months to support that goal.

Halo 3: ODST and Relic on the Way

Which brings me to Halo 3: ODST campaign and the Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer map of Relic. We’re really excited about how these are coming together to expand what Halo: The Master Chief Collection offers to fans. Below you can see a little sneak peek of our latest progress. Additionally, our test and community teams have been running daily playtests on Relic to hammer on the map as much as possible. As we finish things up, we’ll be sharing much more and providing details on launch dates soon.

In closing, thanks again for hanging in there with us. Your comments of support (and frustration) were all heard and kept us burning the midnight oil.

ODST is great. The music is amazing. :wub:

After this only Reach won't be on X1, I bet they upgrade that as DLC.

Went on this today and they have got rid of the team snipers playlist! Bunch of banana splits!

Have they said why it has been removed?

Does this work now?

:shifty:

Haven't played it in months. I'll be on tomorrow for some games if anyone fancies it?

Fabian Delph is a banana split.

Absolutely love Team Ball games, maybe my favourite mode. Hope they keep it, but think its instead of snipers for time being which is also awesome.

Bar BTB (which works but can be a little long) it works, I'd suggest Halo 2/3/4/Aniversary though.

Had some epic halo games lastnight, a few rounds of Teamball followed with Floodgate on Halo 3 co-op. Took some screenies of my stream (bored in work), was well chuffed that party kept together throughout it all:

What's multiplayer like compared to the Halo 2 days? Does everyone chat? Are there plenty of forum regulars?

Tempted to buy a second hand Xbox One just for some Halo goodness to get me through the pre-MGS V drought on PS4.

I've been watching videos of stuff like Battlefied, COD AW and Killzone, and none of them look anywhere near as good as Halo 2.

No regulars I'm afraid, my video above starts with Halo 2 classic MP and goes through Halo3/4 so you'll see the process of how it works lobbies wise etc.
