Halo: Master Chief Collection is an absolute broken mess

Last weekend, I picked up the #Halo Master Chief Collection from the Steam sale with a friend. We wanted to play through Halo 1 again, but it was completely unplayable.

You can't always join another player's session.
Occasionally, nothing happens when starting a mission.
On certain missions the game just completely freezes.
At certain points the game locks up leaving you unable to move.

It's just awful.

Update: Most issues were fixed through updates, I guess we just wanted to play in a really unfortunate time.

The locking up problem is related to a DLL mismatch when attempting #Windows/#Linux crossplay. In short: Copy your Windows friends' ucrtbase.dll from both the System32 and the SysWOW64 folders to your Windows folder in #Steam's compatdata folder and you're good to go!

We had a great time playing last night.

I've had a generally pleasant experience with the game. All the issues I came across--friends not being able to join matches, lag while on multiplayer--was because of cross-platform issues, one of us was on the MCC version while another was in the original release version, or my own poor internet connection.

I had some issues in coop, but we managed to finish all the games.

Consider reinstalling it. Delete all settings and what not. Possibly reset your entire system if need be.

These are not common problems with this collection of games.
