I have a few major complaints:
1) when you finish a game you should be taken back to a menu where everyone you just played can play again without doing quickmatch or optimatch again. The process right now takes far too long, and i absolutly hate when i have a wicked game going and the teams are even and then the game ends and you have to find a new game. For me there is nothing worse than that.
2) as of right now quickmatch and optimatch take far too long. It takes literally 5 minutes, and sometimes when i press b to leave the game all of a sudden starts!Whats up with that! I honestly press quickmatch and then change the channel and starting watching some tv in the meantime, and when i hear people on my headset i know its done loading. That should never be the case in any game
3) when you make a game you should be able to invite people you just played from the previous games you played and also make them public. Cuz for me i dont play much, and the only people i have on my friends list are people i know personally. And thats only like 5 people that i see everyday that have xbox live, and chances are only one of us are on at a time so the party mode is COMPLETLY useless to me

playing halo 2 on xbconnect is better for me right now i think

i would play so much if it didnt take to long and there werent to many restrictions
its such a pain in the **** to have me and a buddy play online

AND ANOTHER THING
i have two headsets!i bought an extra one so my buddy could talk to!
But they dont let you and your buddy talk
I know this would probably make the game slower but there has gotta be some way around it
That would make any xbox live game better for me, to be able to have my buddy talk with a seperate headset

Halo 2 is a wicked game, however i dont play online nearly as much as i wish i could just because it takes to long!its so time consuming to have fun, that i just decided to do other things

Frankie said they're working on how long it takes, and yeah, it is annoying to not be able to instantly rematch with the people you just played. My advice is to invite them all to a party on the stats screen. The guests using a headset thing.. well, that has nothing to do with H2. Guests can't use headsets in any live games.
