> Yea, just did my first two games. Did the worst on my team and we lost both, i kept getting destroyed. This is gonna ruin the entire game for me if they dont fix this at launch, i dont wanna get -Yoink- on every game 24/7.

Better get comfy with campaign then. Also I’ve never liked 4v4 sweat matches in Halo. If anything go B2B…more players anyway and vehicles to help even the odds.

May just be the people you’re playing against - I’m playing on an XBOX 360 controller and still able to keep up mostly… but it is pretty crazy how intense the matches immediately were. You can tell people have really been getting ready to play arena against other humans.

your then also ignoring the reality that the people playing are pvp fans and prob are pretty good at it. Timing really pushes out a lot of the more “casual” croud which is going to push games to a more sweat zone. That isnt an indication of sbmm

There’s no SBMM in the flight atm

  • If you played games against bots, they have some data to put together a SBMM profile on you. - Since it’s a technical test, I 100% imagine that even if this is being termed “social slayer” as what they’re previewing, they are running their competitive tracking algorithms in the background for match making. Otherwise how are thei going to test that?

It absolutely does it stored on your activision account

To be fair everyone who is playing Halo right now is mostly PVP players and big fans of the game. It does not surprise me that a lot of my games feel sweaty, I hope they don’t add a hardcore sbmm in public games like other games which ruined the whole point of casual play. Anyways it is normal that this happened but I am sure once the full game comes out it will be much more casual since everyone playing right now is a hardcore halo fan.

That is what im trying to figure out is this because there are only tryhards playing PVP ATM or is it SKBMM

Are you a Dev?

Bruh have you played social in MCC? It’s more sweaty than rank.

I mean, it could be:

  • your limited time spent playing this game has been against bots, that while pretty well programmed are still predictable and considerably worse at threat assessment, deception, and varying tactics than human players
  • the game operates differently to past Halo titles in a number of ways (possibly more similar to 5, I wouldn’t know) - some things like radar being waaaay less helpful and lack of melee lunge have got me killed a few times, that’s for sure, neither of which were as noticeable with bots
  • it’s a tech preview, you’re gonna get iffy things going on with bugs, non-final implementations, lack of optimization
  • likely lag due to lack of optimizations for engine and servers, relatively small and likely fairly spread out matchmaking pool
  • as people are saying, the people who have signed up for this are at least reasonably dedicated to the Halo games, and the ones playing it constantly even more so, so the average player in the flight will likely be noticeably better than the true ‘average’ Halo player

Or it could be that they went way, way, way out of their way to import MMR from other Halo games and systems explicitly for this flight - nay, not even the whole flight, just this final period where PVP is available! - just so they could match you, explicitly you, in to unwinnable games.

31

Lucky for you they have added bot matches where you can practice and get better before playing against actual people

32

I just signed up but I can’t wait to get nice and sweaty playing Halo again. The adrenaline really makes me sweat, and gives me insane body odor. my forehead is gonna be so greasy too. can’t wait

33

ok i got a win i take everything back my ego is restored

This is gross, but is also an accurate description of me after like 2 hours of H5 competitive arena. I expect the same will be true for Infinite :rofl:

35

I figured it would be like that, so I’m avoiding the mode entirely. I’d rather just play and have fun against bots.

36

Or they built the game to be sweaty. The radar kills it for me as well Ill be doing well then Bam people out of nowhere going full speed

37

Don’t worry! You can always play the bot matches and brush up on your skills before playing in public matches :slight_smile:

I was hesitant to even join it. I could sense the sweat. And wasn’t wrong.

I did my one match 48-50 and got out. Might do some more bot killing as well later.

39

I like how there’s bad players complaining about getting -Yoink- on, yet also complaining about SBMM
