I even called our ip. Thinking its them blocking ports, they said no ports are being blocked.
It has to be the master list is messed up again.
I have even cycled my cable moded to grab a new ip and its on the list for about 30 mins then it gets dropped from the list. They need to fix the master list.

Later all and thanks for the help.

I just checked about 200 servers on the list. Down from about 600.
Who do we get in touch with to let them know about the master server?
Thanks

Is any person at Bungie listening? The master server is messing up halo. I am a member of XF-Clan.net and our servers have been missing for several days now. The servers are up but are missing from The Lobby. Please fix the problem.

I just called the support for the game. If others would call 1-800-936-5700.
They are open on Sundays 6am to 3pm (pacific time) M-F 5am to 9pm, Sat 6am to 3pm.
They know about the problem now. I was the first they heard of it. So others need to call.
They tech I talked to was very hard to understand.

Thanks Guys

Bungie doesn't control the server list, gamespy does. They are having some techinical difficulties with the server.

I made a post on Gamespy's forums and also sent a request to customer support. Hopefully they will deal with it shortly.

I called and talked to Microsoft tech and they just sent me back to gearboxsoftware and here as they don't provide support for dedicated servers.

Here is the link he gave me.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892611

Is this just going in circles?

Same problem. GameSpy is f***ing up again. A few weeks ago the entire Battefield 2 system was shut down. No one could log in. Millions of millions of players unable to play for two days.

And no one upstairs seems to care.

That's actually good news because if it's affecting CS:S, CoD, and BF2 they will be getting a flood of pissed off e-mails.

I was just over on the Gamespy website and in the Halo section they have an announcement saying that they don't run the master server for Halo that it just uses there technology. They say to contact to game maker for support. Oh -blam!-, here we go. I'm assuming that is Microsoft or Gearbox, not Bungie, which means it will be a while to contact and convince them to have someone look at the master server.

In my email from micrsoft they said its gamspy lol.
Lets say can we pick who to blame next!

The all started last Monday night and has been hell ever since.
Gamespy arcade anyone use it ?
Download it and look up the games, any game on gamespy and the they do not show up.
Its gamespy.

I got one ?
If its not gamespy, then why in my packet sniffer the heartbeat ping for the Halo master server gets sent to ip 207.38.8.134 port 27900 ? lol

Ip traces to
207.38.8.0 - 207.38.15.255
GameSpy Industries
18002 Skypark Circle
Irvine, CA
US

Its them and they know it.
Proof is in the pudding!

Yeah these constant problem's are pretty lame. It seem's like every day there is some new issue with the game. Like i've said in previous post's, it is (insert guilty party here) fault.

The funny part is it's obviously in Gamespy's hands. When they pass the buck it just say's they don't give a -blam!-. Is this the message they want to send to the people that line their pocket's? I guess so.

Because of this problem, almost every server is constantly full. You can't even get into a good game, and when you do, the lag is so bad you can hardly play.
