It’s like every other game I get Shor through walls or enemies take up to 6-7 br shots to kill rather than the usual 4 or 5. Also with Fiesta being this weeks featured, it shows even more with weapons such as the rocket Launcher where the rocket has a huge delay before it leaves the tube or where the cindershot barely makes an enemy’s shield flare…
Please for the love of God prioritize this fix

Nope. Not mentioned in any of the update posts and also not mentioned anytime they mentioned BTB which was only once or twice. I don’t think 343 can/knows how to fix this issue so they have been blatantly ignoring it. This developer has no idea what they’re doing, and all they care about is cashing in on the cosmetics and their pathetic events that are still in this broken mess. There’s really no more words left other than It’s Done.

Made a post about this earlier. Devs refuse to address it though I guess it’s been talked about it in a tweet and dev blog or something.
Thing is, people that don’t even know what desync is just know the game feels bad and don’t know why, they are leaving the game because of it.
No one is going to buy cosmetics from their precious store if they all leave because the game feels like -Yoink!-.

Sadly I think you’re wrong… I can’t go most matches without at least 1 of the other 3 players on my team having a cosmetic that was purchased. I don’t know why the players are so stupid to purchase the overpriced garbage for a sub par experience. I think the new generation is so used to poorly made games that it’s a normal experience for them.

Getting pretty tired of getting shot through walls and having my melee not count. The fact that I know precious 343 got to take their vacation is the only thing that held me feel better about it.

It’s getting unbearable.

I’ve noticed that Desync has been becoming less common. I play on Xbox Series X and my PC friends still encounter it every few matches.
Maybe desync is mostly a PC issue?

It’s the opposite for me. On series X and it’s abysmal.

We need more people complaining about this issue. I have been playing Halo since H1 and this reminds me of MCC at launch. All we hear is feedback about cosmetic shop which is odd because this is killing the game like you said. I still play with my friends but can’t take this joke of a game seriously with this horrible Desync. My guess is we will have to wait a year or a few years before they get this situated just like MCC took 4+ years to fix hit reg problems in that game.

Despite all the things that infinite is lacking I had still enjoyed a few games here and there, tonight had 3 games and all of them had major issues, that cured me of this game again for a while.
Desync for me is almost every game. What’s weird is I have fiber optic internet and live about 3 hours away from a Halo server farm.
When I connect to my local server (which seems to be 50% of the time) I have around 13-17ms latency. At this low of latency one would think desync wouldn’t be an issue. Nope, it’s actually worse.
For me desync seems to not be a major issue in games around 50-70ms of latency. However packet loss then becomes a issue and I end up having trouble walking through doorways. So overall all the games just a lose lose for me.

Postums did address it, he said they’re looking into it. I don’t see it being fixed anytime soon though.

It’s getting really bad… I would not mind waiting longer for extra content if they sorted out the desync and high ping server issues.
I think an update on how they are progressing with fixing this problem would go a long way in the community considering they said they are “looking into it”.
I think the problem with giving frequent updates on something like this is that it gives the community false hope that the fix is coming soon when in reality it likely isn’t. Desync isn’t just server issues, it’s deep within the code of the game and code is going to need to be rewritten and that’s extremely complicated to do without breaking other aspects in the game. There’s likely going to have to be an entirely separate internal build of the game that they can’t fully focus on without the live service taking a hit to patches and content drops.
It really is unfortunate, I feel like they could’ve definitely used another delay. They’ve now missed their huge surge of players and most people have already left. It’s supposed to be a 10 year game but likely the player base isn’t going to last that long as most people will be gone by the time the game reaches a more playable state. That’s my biggest fear for the game honestly, they’re never going to get players to return by the time it’s good.
I know all my friends have already given up on the game entirely and it’ll be impossible to convince them to hop back on it once it’s, “good,” because by that time Halo will be irrelevant again.

I use to get pissed when I was shot around the corner. Now its just a joke to me. I play Infinite because I love the Halo franchise, I’ve been playing Halo for 20 years. But there comes a time where we cant be in denial anymore, this is a disgrace of a Halo game. One of the biggest gaming disappointments I’ve ever had.
I do this too. I literally laugh out loud sarcastically at this point when I get killed by this BS.

What I don’t get is how streaky it feels for me. There will be entire nights where all my matches feel ok and I do pretty well, and then nights like last night where literally every single game was just whiffed melee after whiffed melee.
I threw a plasma grenade in front of me while I was walking backwards in a completely open part of the map on Deadlock and stuck myself for a suicide. No enemy repulser nearby, no wall, no grav hammer blast, no anything for the grenade to bounce off. Just the server syncing my hitbox behind where I actually am and where it also thought the grenade originated.
It’s reminding me of H3 like 8 months ago where the hit reg was just completely botched for like a month between patches.
I really hope something happens soon
Honestly, I was loving Halo Infinite until the 2/3/2022 update. After the update, however, I have been experiencing horrible desync / lag with the servers. I play mostly ranked solo/duo and crossplay on Xbox Series S. Please just make the game playable. Halo is an amazing part of my life; please get me back in the game!

If they don’t fix the desync issues, the game will die. Pros are getting tired of it, the community is getting tired of it. People are leaving.
