Halo: The Master Chief Collection continues to have some issues linked to matchmaking, but the development team in charge of the video game at 343 Industries claims that there are improvements to the overall experience and that more updates are already in the pipeline.

In an official update, Dan Ayoub, the executive producer linked to the game, says that the most recent title update has managed to create a 20 percent increase in server connectivity.

He adds, “Resolving Matchmaking issues also requires client-side fixes, which require a content update. The client side update, which focuses on Matchmaking performance, non-matchmaking bugs, and a variety of title-specific issues, has been completed and is going through testing and certification.”

It seems that Halo: The Master Chief Collection players will get access to it on Wednesday, November 19, as long as everything goes well.

Even with those changes, 343 Industries will continue to work on improving the matchmaking as much as possible, based on the feedback that the fan community is currently delivering.

At the moment, plenty of players are still reporting that they cannot get into a match and they are planning to ask for refunds if their problems are not addressed soon.

A content update for Halo: The Master Chief Collection can only solve so much

A full update that is not related to matchmaking has also been delivered for the game, designed to eliminate problems with the campaign, the user interface and some party creation issues.

343 Industries seems a little overwhelmed at the moment, and it might make sense for the team to focus on eliminating the matchmaking problems for Halo: The Master Chief Collection as soon as possible, because these seem to be affecting most of the fans.

The package launched on November 11 is a very ambitious one because it delivers updated versions of all four core titles in the franchise, designed to work well with the enhanced power of the Xbox One.

The bundle also includes access to the Halo Nightfall live-action series, in which Ridley Scott introduces a major new character called Agent Locke.

Gamers who pick up Halo: The Master Chief Collection will also receive a unique code that can be used to gain access to the beta period for Halo 5: Guardians, which is set to start on December 29 and will allow gamers to test the core changes made to multiplayer.
