No way that's just for Reach right? Surely that's the entirety of MCC otherwise it'd be so incompetent to not have preload.

$10 Halo on Steam is gonna pull a looot of people in I think/hope.Looks like MCC just overtook index and is the #1 global seller atm on Steam.
Is Halo MP accessible to get into for newcomers?
Asking in as both a newcomer to Halo and as a relative newcomer to multiplayer shooters. I got to first prestige in Titanfall 2, usually with the lowest kills/most deaths on a team, so that's about where my MP shooting experience is at
It's the $40 one that overtook the index :)$10 Halo on Steam is gonna pull a looot of people in I think/hope.
Is this still Halo Reach for the grenades like it was in the beta?
What?? No BTB on launch?Hobbes
Can you add something like this to the OP:

I was worried about this. This map pool for hardcore is very limited. I don't want to play shitty Reach with armor abilities and 75% bloom, and hardcore is going to be sweaty and feature less maps. Unfortunately there's no ideal form of Halo Reach, at least having a toggle for classic settings in mixtape would help (No AAs, even starts).

The 8v8 mode looks like it's BTB
Ah, yep. you're right.
Yeah at least a few more maps for hardcore would be nice Anchor 9, Condemned and Solitary.It's 8v8
I mean, that was always a problem for Reach in general since all the non-Forge maps are campaign locations. The balance in the majority of the non-forge maps was awful.
Also in regards to matchmaking, keep in mind MCC features a match composer so you can be incredibly selective of what you actually want to play, it will just extend your wait time.
Yup it will also help this game never die lolAlso in regards to matchmaking, keep in mind MCC features a match composer so you can be incredibly selective of what you actually want to play, it will just extend your wait time.
If only mixtape matchmaking had a classic toggle for Reach and 4 that removed AAs and loadouts.

Yeah I'm glad Sword base, powerhouse and boardwalk aren't there as they're all bad but a few more DLC maps would be nice.Hardcore has the best maps, I'm so happy I don't have to fucking touch sword base or the cage in that playlist
Bummer it's the worst version.God bless the return of Firefight. Still boggling that ODST Firefight isn't in this still though, but oh, we just had to include the god awful Spartan Ops.
Updated OP with launch day times and matchmaking playlists. Please check to make sure when the game is available to you and what you can play!
They've acknowledged demand for ODST Firefight in the past. Fingers crossed that they add it in eventually. Hopefully when ODST's campaign is released for PC.God bless the return of Firefight.

Almost certain that version of the game is gonna be including a lot of debug assets if it was accidentally pushed.Keep in mind this was an accidental push so file size can change.
smh still no squad slayer after all these years
The great injustice continues. Get rid of shitty non-Halo gametypes like swat and add squad slayer you cowards.

ODST Firefight with matchmaking would be the GOAT horde mode for me
No Powerhouse, Stockpile or Headhunter, eh?
Those are flag and asset denial gametypes. So they're there, there all terrible but they're there.
dammit I shoulda responded one post later.
post # 343 on page 7 as an extermination would be amazing
