Halo: MCC patch tweaks matchmaking (again), out now
For matchmaking specifically, the patch promises to improve search success rates, reduce instances of the "Awaiting Privileges" error, more correctly determine player counts in each playlist, fix an issue where players appeared to be searching in the incorrect "find game" screen, and add a countdown sound effect to the voting timer. The update should improve the network performance of Halo 2: Anniversary, lower the music volume in multiplayer menus and fix stability issues across multiple games in both campaign and multiplayer.
The Master Chief Collection has suffered from matchmaking issues since launch, prompting 343 Industries to dole out compensation in the form of a free month of Xbox Live for early adopters, plus a free 1080p, 60fps Halo 3: ODST campaign due in the spring, and a fresh nameplate and avatar.

I have never had so many problems with this game until this patch... Nothing works for me now and it's especially bad when trying to play with others. It really makes no sense to me why a billion dollar company like Microsoft can't fix this game.

Yeah that really sucks that they aren't pushing those dedicated servers till fall next year but it's weird because most of my friends never complained about any problems and they be having a blast.
