    Hey i can't figure out how to do matchmaking.  Everytime I press multiplayer it just goes into the match setup screen and no matter what I do it makes me host a match.  Thanks for the help.  I hate this menu system, it is confusing, and there are so many loading screens.  Seriously, why are there loading screens between menus?

    after going into multiplayer you can choose match type. Private Xbox Live or Public Xbox Live or System Link or something else. just choose Public Xbox Live and you're good to go.

    and those loadings are terrible. stupid epic.

    yeah. they SERIOUSLY need to patch this whole matchmaking thing. they were trying to hard to make it similar to Halo3. the problem is in halo3 everything about matchmaking was awesome. it was fast, seamless and without loading screens. here everything is fucked. anyways...it's an amazing game. we just have to wait for a fix or sth.
