The Halo 2: Anniversary Rumble playlist is live in Halo: The Master Chief Collection, after 343 Industries stripped it out on November 14 to help ease matchmaking issues. Still, the playlist isn’t finalized – it currently allows up to 10 players and doesn’t feature ranking, and 343 says it will continue tweaking the playlist to eventually support up to eight players with ranked play.
“Once we’ve ironed out existing matchmaking issues,” 343 writes.
Matchmaking continues to be problematic in The Master Chief Collection, and even before the game’s launch on November 11, 343 had to make changes to the announced lineup of playlists. Our review noted that matchmaking was “barely functioning.” On November 20, 343 released a patch aiming to fix many matchmaking issues.
