Why is so damn hard to get into a game, you would think after all these years bungie would have do a major overhaul to the matchmaking on halo 2

It probably has something to do with there being only around 5,000 people online at the most, and around 1,000 at the least. (Which is often)

I don't think thats the problem. Nobody has been able to get into matchmaking for over 24 hours. For some reason you can only join custom games, which by the way got real old real quick. I don't know if it's Bungie or Xbox Lives problem. Evidently nobody is in a big hurry to fix it. I guess they don't feel Halo 2 is a priority anymore.

they should retune matchmaking to allow for larger search paramaters due to the severely decreased population.
