BR / 4sk for USA players 5sk for EU players

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Since the removal of region lock this seems to be the case in nearly every game regardless of the playlist. That and frequent instances of screen freeze have made the game unplayable. Say goodbye to your European player base 343.

2

I feel your pain but please dont blame US players. The only reason region lock was removed was because of the complaints of EU/AU players.

I wasn’t aware of this. Explains a lot…

343i is to blame
putring in region lock was a terrible idea to begin with and removing it was an equally bad idea after it was implimented

all of this can be fixed with three simple words
Selectable data centres
You know, like the ones we were promised after the beta

I’m not blaming US players, I’m just pointing out the disadvantage we face when playing on American servers. I feel like cannon fodder in the majority of my games now.

I’ve not noticed it as UK player… must be you?

Microsoft have data centres in Dublin so I guess some of your games might be falling on those servers (assuming they are being used)

Thought something was strange, games occasionally freezing, players lagging and teleporting around. I literally had a guy appear next to me and punch me. Also I did a perfect 4 shot kill, or what should of been a 4 shot kill, and the player didn’t die. I watched it back in theatre and I landed all my shots. I never wanted region lock removed, the game is now very difficult for me.

I am the UK by the way, I don’t blame anyone apart from 343

Is time for 343i slogan… Deal with it.

10

This is -Yoink-! Why shoukd we have to put up with his ridiculous disadvantage?!?

It’s barmy that anyone would think this is ok!!

11

That’s called balance. UK players are slightly better so their BR is 5 shot kill instead of 4.

Props to 343i

The dudes responsible for Netcode at 343i should really hang their heads in shame.

They most certainly should!
