I’m not one to complain but I can’t stand it anymore. This game benefits teams way to much that it’s forcing me to stop playing the game. I haven’t touched the game in weeks for this exact reason and it needs to change.
I don’t care what my stupid invisible csr ranking us but please for the sake of a balanced match MAKE FULL TEAMS FACE FULL TEAMS. Wow… omg sounds like common sense right ummmmmmm guess not.
I can’t even play or enjoy the game because all I fave is full teams that just win every match and for you to be stuck at your armory. Please 343 can u make us small lobbies & solo players be match fairly. That’s all I’m asking for.
Ask any full team, all they face is randoms or solo players and they think it’s boring as hell. Cab just just upgrade your terrible match making search parameters. Make it fair. OH here is an Idea add a search preference based on party size or is that too hard?
343 has really done a great job with Halo 5 multiplayer, especially as you’ve said, team play is a necessary part of Halo 5- making it better. It would be impossible to match teams with teams without a large variety of teams, but introducing a no teams playlist like Mercenary Whatever it’s called in previous Call of Duty’s (call me out of they don’t include it anymore). Ranked matches are great and I don’t think 343 should change them- but the addition of more content for the lone wolf should be a priority.
The problem with that is there isn’t too many teams matching in Halo 5 anymore. The variety would get stale for some of them and then they would leave which would cause other teams to basically search alone without finding anyone.

That is very wrong. Teams dominant higher level Onyx.

Yeah I’m pretty sure I know what’s a team when they are well coordinated spawn trapping u at a base. I’d advise u to look at my stats if u think I’m a random.
What u just stated is the issue. Teams shouldn’t face randoms. It’s not fair and makes the game less fun for both groups.
I’ve played with countless full teams and the only time it was remotely fun was when we faced teams. I mean because good players actually like a challenge unlike bad kids facing lesser skilled players and steam rolling them with ease.

Yeah, because it takes skill to spawn trap, -_- News flash, good randoms can easily capture a base and sit outside killing you, it really doesn’t take any extra thought. Also, a random is somebody who plays solo and you match with, so your stats don’t mean anything, you are still a random.
I could care less if its fair, I play for my enjoyment and no one else’s.
I’ve played with countless full teams and the only time it was remotely fun was when we faced randoms. I hate being challenged on a game, it is just extremely boring and annoying to force myself to compete against people for something that isn’t even worth it. Also, I am relatively above average in terms of skill or at the very least average, but I still like or used to like doing it. Nowadays I feel it takes to much work so I don’t bother.

There are plenty of teams running in Warzone as well. Team based matching for both Warzone and Arena will only benefit the game.
I run into a full or close to full party at least once a day and a lot of times it’s more than that. Based on my experiences, I think the population is healthy enough to implement some type of restrictions.

I never said it took skill to spawn trap. That’s the whole point I’m trying to get through your head. Being able to spawn trap shouldn’t be easy, a good team can do it with ease on randoms but that isn’t skill. it’s skill when a team can spawn trap another team.
Also random isn’t just a solo player, most of the time it’s associated with being bad too.
Oh yeah full teams aren’t most of their team wearing Achilles and most are in the same spartan company. I’m sorry I don’t knit what a team is by your standards. You can tell when there is a team by their teamwork. It’s not hard to see.
Also u just said it’s fun not trying and facing noobs. How is that fun. It gets out winning every single natch with no skill. Idk your probably in the minority who would even consider unfair matching “fun”. Lol

Random, can mean different things to different people. Mine is a person you match with that you don’t know, if a random is a bad player I call them exactly that, a bad player. I don’t know where you got your definition from but just because you believe it doesn’t mean most do, the same is said for my definition.
Most teams I join wear whatever armor, mainly Heilio(not saying I don’t come across a few Achilles) but I guess that’s just because i play with LFG guys. Also, I have seen randoms work pretty well together on occasion, though its extremely rare. I didn’t know what you meant by that bold so I’ll just leave it alone.
I consider matching in my favor fun because I get enough of a challenge IRL and I’d rather not have my video game time occupied by it too, especially if I get nothing for it. I don’t know why you like to think your opinion is better than mine, or more valid but I could care less what others think of as fun, I play games for my enjoyment and nobody elses.

I don’t know, considering you’re flat-out admitting that you only care about yourself at the expense of others, and that everyone else doesn’t matter, pretty much shows that you don’t really have an opinion that’s worth noting.
I know that Halo 5’s matchmaking and Overwatch’s matchmaking aren’t exactly the same, but I think that this link has some general points about the complexity of matchmaking. In short, Halo 5’s matchmaking probably does use team size as one of many factors in determining who matches who. But there are so many factors and not all can be weighted equally every time for matching. So every match made will probably suffer in some factors while prioritizing others.

Wow that’s rude, I’m human like everyone else! Also, though I put my enjoyment above others(randoms, for family I’d put my enjoyment aside) I’m not so evil that I won’t try and suggest ideas for others to have fun as well. Which is one of the reasons I even stay on this forum.
