    Unable to play Halo Reach online.


    I just got on Reach this morning. At first when the 360 logo popped up it showed a static screen. I restarted it and it then showed a black screen. So I restarted it again. It finally works but it won't let me play matchmaking. It says that I'm not connected
    to Xbox Live. I really don't know what to do at this point.

    :)

    Halo: Reach Beta Disc

    I decided to play Halo: Reach after a long time of inactivity, but when Xbox Live tried to update the game, it said that my disc was not compatible with the update and I was unable to play. I was a part of the Dashboard Beta and was attempting to use the
    Halo: Reach disc I was sent as a part of the Dashboard Beta Program. I do not have a retail copy of the game. Am I unable to play Halo: Reach anymore?

    No suitable match found (Gears of war 3)

    Just lovely. Another reason Telus is *** crap. I'm also on Telus, Actiontec V1000H and am completely unable to play Gears Of War 3 online with other players, as well as Halo Reach (but I suspect that is a 343i problem).

    Hey, Rust! It can take a while for the black screen to go away. For Reach, you have to be patient and wait for it to fully load. I suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the game if you are still having issues connecting to matchmaking. Let us know how that
    goes!

    I just got your message. I've tried reinstalling the game but it won't work still. I also posted this problem on Halo Way point aswell and got a reply of one person having this problem. I've also hard reset the console as well but no luck. I'd also like
    to mention that the network options only show console and local connections. Another thing is that when I check my gamerscore for Reach on the one it shows no gamerscore for that game. But I still have my gamerscore showing on the Smartglass app. I'd appreciate
    if you or other staff could look into this problem as I think it only happenes for a small amount of people. I understand your schedule of having to deal with other issues posted by other users.

    Hey Rust,

    Was Reach the first backwards compatible game you have ever tried?

    Not a single BC has connected to Live for me, just like how you are describing and others have been experiencing this issue for months.

    So go ahead if you want to try all those suggestions and complete their survey. There is no fix. I have wasted hours trying to figure this out.

    I went to see if I could play Gears of War online. It took awhile because I had to manually sign in which made the game froze. I signed in the second time and it allowed me to find a match.

    I'm just worried that my console is broken. I know some people are having many of the same problems I'm having but it's been frustrating with these problems. I've only had the console for 8 months.
