Always About H O S T

Does anyone know how HOST selection works in H4?

Im sure it as nothing to do with best connection…

All NAT open wired connection .
100mb down 70mb up
Ping of 7ms on NYC

I Rarely get the Host but muchacho46 from Mexico pull it all the time with is 56k connection ???

Upload and download speeds have nothing to do with lag. This is why games only show ping. You could have a good connection speed with 256k up load/download speeds as long as you have low ping.

muchacho46 is my Dad’s gamer tag. Weird.

I got a good ping also ,i need specific information on Host selection no maybe.

To be fair a proper working connection with a upload speed of say 70mbit will give better host ping 2000 miles away then a upload speed of 1mbit.

Anyway Op i’m pretty sure Halo 4 use the same crap host selection system as previous Halo games, so read this on how it works.
