Is it just me, or does Reach seem to now take an incredibly, incredibly, super long time to load. I had never finished the SP campaign, so I put the disk in and went to play it, and it literally took over 2 minutes to create the SP game? That one screen where it shows the lobby, game type, and basically creates the SP game for you. I am wondering if it has something to do with the new disk format, or if it is just an isolated incident on my end and no one elses?

And FTR, I thought maybe it was just a first time thing, so I quit the game completely, restarted the 360, fired up the game, and same deal. Took over 2 minutes to create the SP campaign game.

I also noticed I still had the same issue I always had, which was just specific to reach. Sound cuts out completely for a second or two randomly. Does not seem to be any specific sound that causes it to happen, just now and then sound cuts out completely. No rhyme or reason either. Can go 10 minutes without it happening, then it will happen 4 times in a minute, then 20 minutes without it happening, then 1 time in 10 minutes. Just weird. I will pay more attention, maybe it is a specific sound.

Hm. The first time I tried playing halo reach was for this beta test and I have not noticed any delays in loading. strange :unsure:

Update downloaded quite quickly, updating took a bit longer than usual, but nothing to worry about.

yeah. the update took a long time to install but i'm finally in. can't see anything different in it though. netflix appearance changed a bit but i'm guessing that's due to the kinect update?

SP always took quite a while to load for me. Dunno what to say about your sound issue.

Nah yeah, it always took a long time to load for me as well, but talking like 3 times longer then it used to. :unsure:

There isn't anything different. As I stated earlier and is stated on Connect, the update fixed a problem that some people were having that caused them to be unable to connect to Xbox Live.

Hm, I haven't tried SP yet with the new disc, so I'll check it out.

Now that the Beta is complete will the Halo Reach disc from the Beta work on any console? Since I already owned it I was thinking of giving it to a friend (that wasn't in the beta). I know the simple solution is for me to keep the disc, but I'd rather keep the one with the art. :p

Yes.

Was this 'yes' for Ironman's question?
