Gamers barely awake after a night of Covenant-blasting and Brute-punching in the just-released Halo: The Master Chief Collection can rest a little easier knowing that multiplayer matchmaking fixes are a “top priority” at 343 Industries.

In a number of updates, the studio is telling those experiencing issues finding a public multiplayer match in The Master Chief collection, “We’re aware of issues some have been having with matchmaking and we’re working around the clock, alongside the Xbox Live team, to address.”

Some improvements have been made thus far, but it appears that further action is still required.

“We’ve also deployed an update that has shown some improvement, and we work around the clock to optimize,” said 343. “This is our top priority.

“The update deployed to matchmaking was done on the server side and does not require an extra download to your Xbox One.”

“We are aware of the issues players have been experiencing with matchmaking and we’re working around the clock, alongside the Xbox Live team, to improve the situation. We have deployed an update that has shown some improvement, and we continue to optimize the experience. The update deployed to matchmaking was done on the server side and does not require an extra download to your Xbox One. This is our top priority and will keep everyone updated regularly as we deploy continued improvements.”
