^ Check above. " A few months ago, my 9 year old 360 broke down which was fine after 9 years. In August, I bought thermal paste to fix the 360 but then thought that it was about time to buy the new Xbox One with Halo MCC which did promise Halo3 as in the "old days" with BTB. I got a new TV set on purpose and confident that this was the "ONE" (no pun intended), got the MCC bundle. I got eveything set up, downloaded the MCC for 4 days, last night I finally get to 100%, click the multi and bam, I get the pop up "downloading Mactchmaking data...". So I can only play Campaing which is useless btw as I have all 4 Halo Titles on the 360. I only bought it to play BTB H3.So this is the 4th disappointment with the series. I can't really tell you how I feel about the whole Halo franchise, as I would get banned, but I am utterly appalled at what's happening. I tried all the troubleshooting available on the internet, didn't see any responses by 343 on this issue. So I am stuck with a new game with a multi that doesn't work. With all the threads on MCC being buggy, I was expecting some issues but not a broken multi altogether. I hadn't read any threads on this "matchmaking data" bug until I googled it or wouldn't even had bothered (would you?).Then, I read that H5 was due in November with promises of arena slayer and BTB. Rumors go that 343 are concentrating on that implying that MCC bugs aren't their priority anymore. There is also the hope of the retrocompatibility of H3 and other games in "november" or at the "end of the year" but will it work? Will MCC ever be fixed?"
That's a pretty valid viewpoint me thinks. Especially if your an Aussie.
