Just as the title says… It annoys me. I want to be in playlists that don’t take 5 minutes to find a game…
ya i also have no population on the pop counter, but i still find games, im preety sure its just a glitch.
Not really. It’s 7 years old I’m just happy to see people still play it
It doesn’t take that long in all honesty. Last time I play SWAT, there were days there was a population counter and days there wasn’t and it still didn’t take longer than a minute or two to find a match with full teams. If it’s taking 5+ minutes to find matches, there could be a possibility your connection is acting up. Because I’ve had a rather crap internet connection/speed and it still only took like a minute to a minute and a half tops.
I stopped playing Halo:Reach about 2 months ago when I suddenly had a glitch where the population counters did not work anymore. Guess more people have that same issue?

Big team battle always seems to give some quick games. Same for either SWAT or team slayer.

All gamemodes in the Standard Playlist, BTB in Evolved, Anniversary Slayer (maybe An. Firefight too), Grifball (but don’t go there, please) and Firefight.
Yes, it really does. Just because the game is ageing, doesnt mean it has to be forgotten completely. People still play it, unfortunately players here in the UK cant play though because of the insane connection issues

Really? I play in Portugal and the connection is simply perfect in 95% of the games I have played.

I often play with UK players though! Maybe it is more of a personal issue?

Who knows. But let’s not forget that Reach has no dedicated servers. So, the closest the host is to the USA, the better. But Firefight seems to have a slight problem. Back then, my connection was just plain bad around at 30 Mb/s and I couldn’t play Firefight, but only multiplayer. Now, with my Internet in the Xbox clocked at 100 Mb/s, half of my games had perfect connection. The other half had delays in the controls, but it was mostly in milliseconds, not even close to a full second.
That just makes it more of a surprise when you finally get a match…lol
To be honest, I rarely have to wait long for matches, except when I am in playlist that are known to have lower player counts. I seem to get matches quicker in Halo Reach Team Slayer, than I do in Halo 5’s team slayer. It would be nice to have the pop count fully functional, and back in the future Halo titles.
