Okay i’m not sure if this is only on my end, but I cannot connect to ANY games. And I have been trying for about an hour.

The beta lets you set all your customizations, like the helmet, armor, and other things. But once you enter Matchmaking, the game just sits there and does not find any servers. This is the screen it get’s stuck on for me.

At one point, it even said “The Halo Reach server is not available at this time. Please try again later.”

Sometimes it will also say that it is downloading a playlist, which can also take a while.

As you can tell by the picture above, there were 145, 977 when i took that picture (approximately 10 minutes ago). I am looking at the screen again now, and the user count is 151,320. It just jumped 5343 in under 10 minutes! And this is all within the past 2 or so hours that the beta has been out. So the user count went from 5,000 (the users who got it 2-3 days early) to over 150,000! That’s a huge number in such a short time, so these sort of errors are expected. Dont get too scared, they will be fixed soon.

If anybody else is having these problems, feel free to post and describe what you are experiencing.
