Back-Compat Issues?

Halo 3 BC was fun for all of 48 hours. The game is plagued with host booters and modders. Cheating is so rampant that 90% of playlists are unplayable. 343 should at least address this, as this is a highly problematic circumstance that renders Halo 3 BC entirely pointless.

Halo 3 on my new XBOX One X has a serious graphics issue. I've used both a 1080p and a new TCL 55p605 UHD TV, and the screen looks like an old TV with bad reception, diagonal sparkles all over the screen wherever the live game is running. Menus overlaying the animation do not have the sparkles. No issues with COD WWII or Halo 5, only Halo 3. I have both the original disk, and the digital download, uninstalled and reinstalled, and issue remains. I called XBOX support, and they couldn't help and told me to contact the developer. You might be able to see a screencapture via this link: https://account.xbox.com/en-us/screenshot/4a78e97e-e858-43c3-af18-ba7a30ac6cb5?gamertag=Raptor%2061&scid=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

I don't like xbox one's back-compact, it feels like I am at a disadvantage. Never raged before so hard on just trying to play. Feels sluggish and choppy.

It says : "Matchmaking requires an Xbox LIVE Membership with permission to play multiplayer over LIVE" even tho i have Gold with my account.

What should i do ?

Do you have gold specifically on your account? Because backwards compatible games do not support Xbox Live Gold sharing like Xbox One games would. Basically, if someone is sharing their Gold membership with you (signing into your console and setting it as their home console), that only works within Xbox One games, whereas Xbox 360 titles in backwards compatibility are just emulated environments of an Xbox 360. So, backwards compatible games act as if they are on a 360, which doesn't support gold sharing.

what about the aim bot/ super jumping players in the servers?
Its difficult to enjoy Halo 3 when there are cheaters breaking the game. Is there way of getting rid if these players using aim bot mods?

Yeah i have one issue with ODST from disc where the game marker didn't point me to the kizingo boulevard mission after the uplift reserve, instead it sent me to ONI alpha site.

Hello.

Halo 3 Digital
Co-op . I’m playing XONE S Halo 3 through back compat by System Link with a friend who has an Xbox 360 and Halo 3 digital . We started a play-through of the campaign, and Sierra 117 worked perfectly. Tsavo Highway, however, gave us both an error message a “An error occurred while playing co-op campaign. Restart at the last mission point to continue."

Same issue with
Halo Reach Digital
An error occurred while playing co-op campaign. Restart at the last mission point to continue.

Hey guys i hope my post is seen, I still play MCC almost everyday running HC playlist mostly (I'm a H3 MLG kid through and through) i've had my 50 in this playlist and probably play this game more than most people in this thread, what i'm really looking for in this update is matchmaking update and UI fixes so i'll make a list...

As far as matchmaking updates as follows

1.Once we are given the "connecting session" prompt why are we not just put into that game? sometimes we wont find games for 5-10 mintues and were given "players found" and "connecting session" the whole time then we back out to the main menu and start the search again and for some reason that seems to work? So a fix on that would be awesome.

2.The downloading matchmaking data thing is kind of ridiculous can we get that fixed?

3.Some people are never fully connected to the game once we load into the map, and sometimes they are connected late like 30-40 seconds into the match need a fix there.

4.I'm sure you are aware of the double screen problem when you are searching for a match that makes it unable for some people to find a game?

5.When in a party of multiple people why when we start searching why does it sometimes only let some people search while others sit in the lobby waiting resulting in us unable to get into a game until the person says "oh you guys are searching? I'm not!" then we back out and restart the search and for some reason it works

6. the matchmaking doesn't seem to make any sense to me sometimes ill be on a team of all 50's and we will play a team of all random 10-20s a bit unfair there. I understand if your just trying to match people because population is so low.

7. Please just make the ranks like H3 so were at least finding games with people around our skill level 40-50

8.Why is it so hard to get into a lobby with my friends, sometimes even joining my friends is a chore where we have to reset our games multiple times.

9. I should never have to go the the xbox dashboard and reset the game to make something work!

10. Host in MCC is insane idk if there is something you can do about that.(dedicated servers?)

11. if the whole team quits before a game loads in while loading in and we get into a game we have to wait the whole time limit playing against no one on the other team in H3(original) the game would just end but not in MCC

12. When the game crashes in the middle of the match or we never load in all the way and it counts as loses and we go down in 1-50 rank is very frustrating.

13. fix in game emblems and stuff so once were in a game its our actual chosen emblems not some random emblem i didn't chose

14. Let 3v3 games happen like in H3

15.Bring back classic MLG maps to halo HC playlist like Lockdown ball or pit KOTH

UI updates as follows... not even sure if some of these are considered UI

1. File share to work like it did in halo 3 just bring it back! i can't search for someones file share and that is insane!

2. let us fully customize our spartans!

3. let custom games be join able in progress

4.change the veto system to anything else

5. polish the UI make it look good seamless and sleek

6.Make brightness settings like H3 my brightness on my monitor is all the way up and i can't see blue team on warlock H2 at all like if there in a shadow there invisible! its not just my monitior.

7.Make the controller settings work, sometimes you will choose a setting and it wont take effect at all!

8. Make leaderboards work as well.

That's all i can think of in this moment i'll edit this as things come to mind i really hope this is seen by someone important, like i said i still play this game almost everyday not this last month as i'm getting my controller repaired:( but i love it and want a population to come back and thrive.

Thank you,
Duh Fox

P.S. hope its not to late i didn't see this....

1. Halo 3
2. Halo 3 Launch Disc (however it ended up downloading my digital copy instead of installing off the disc by saying there's an xbox live update)
3. Game does not connect to the file share. Whether I click on fileshare from the maps selection menu in custom games or in the media section in settings.

If this has already been posted, can anyone direct me to a solution?

I'm having issues with the Halo3: Odst campaign disc. It won't download, what can I do?
I just want to have some fun in campaign
