Could've started a matchmaking MP match years ago and it still wouldn't have found me a game yet

The literal MCC devs even admit and apologise for how 'broken' it was but Deeno says it's ok so it's ok 

 

but if you remember, a couple of years ago I promised to explain what the underlying issues with MCC were

 

“How could you not know that matchmaking was going to break?” – fundamentally it was because we were testing it in an environment that we had set up incorrectly and with some (as we discovered later) faulty assumptions

 

From a personal perspective, the MCC launch was one of my lowest ebbs, professionally

 

In our matchmaking testing we were seeing results that ultimately weren’t reflective of the real retail environment, and our test sessions never got to the kind of scale where we’d see some of the looping issues I’ll describe below. So we genuinely didn’t know until the day it released, how bad the matchmaking in particular was going to get

 

To be clear here, the platform networking model was working as intended, but we made errors and ultimately approached it with the wrong strategy.

 

One of the main matchmaking issues was related to the way that the games gathered players

 

That is years after release and a year ago nearly 

What a disaster of a game. Buy it in 2014, still workign to get it fully working in 2018 lol

The match making has been normalized since March of 2015, it wasn't perfect but it was within normal error tolerances. 

 

You're dumb.

Many people who complain about the game these days have legitimate issues with matchmaking and other aspects, and we’re not going to dismiss those – so even though for most, the game is stable, and the sheer wealth of content and experiences makes it – to this day – a highly rated title by players - we get it. 

 

We weren’t happy with that situation, but we were stuck between a rock and a hard place – most users were (by this time) able to play properly and find matches, and further tinkering might put that at risk. At that time we decided the right thing to do for the total player base was to stop. 

 

You're an outsider looking in, you have no idea what you're talking about.

2017. 

 

You're saying it was ready in 2015 when they clearly say:

 

The fixes and patches we’d applied were pretty delicate and we ended up in a precarious situation where there was no way to make more fixes without potentially breaking something else or making things worse

 

More importantly the overall dev post is about how they can still fix it:

Why it can be fixed.......not it's fixed. That was 2017  Disaster of a game. But is anyone really shocked that you're defending it?

Fucking Deeno man... You talk to him about the possibility of a PC release of MCC..  "nah man, the game is essentially 5 engines ducktaped together and barely functions as it is"... then you talk to him about the Xbox version "It's been solid for forever now... problems were greatly exaggerated"

That's my point, they got the game into an operable and mostly stable state in March/April and then dropped development out of fear that if they messed with it further all the progress they had made to normalize the online function would have broken again. 

 

If you tried to get into a match beyond March/April it only took a few minutes and sometimes seconds, it behaved like you'd expect from basically any game with match making. There were still problems throughout the package but for the most part it worked fine.

Holy shit this Halo discussion is deja vu.  I had this conversation with Deeno last year and he got so ass blasted that he posted a video of him getting into a match as if his experience was representative of everyone's experience.

 

Game was broken for years.  I might've been fixed with this most recent update, but the reason it needed that update is because, once again, shit was broken for years.
