I’ve been experimenting frame rate issues in every map in almost every arena game that I’ve played. It’s very annoying and makes the game not enjoyable. Anyone else is having the same issues? I don’t know, it can be my console or something else, but some friends are experimenting the same things.
There are known fram rate issues for sure. But mostly they relate to forged maps and particularly certain areas of those maps. The worst IMO are Orion II and Pegasus II. But frame rate does drop on other maps too but seems to mostly affect Arena games.
Yeah it’s usually only the forge maps that have framerate drops. Sometimes the game stutters when someone quits out, but apart from that it’s a pretty rock solid 60fps.
Clearly those forge maps are broken, as the resolution is supposed to drop to maintain a solid 60fps. That was 343s claim anyhow when they spoke about the Halo 5 engine. But it seems as they add more and more stuff, the game falls apart more.
The obvious solution would be to work on a bugfix patch to address the 100s of issues we all report daily. But as we know, bugfixes don’t sell Gold packs. So they’ll probably release more useless skins instead.
Try a hard reset

I would try that, or even resetting your router by unplugging it for 1-2 minutes and seeing if anything changes. I think you may be experiencing some network issues that could result in packet loss even. Give it a shot and see if anything helps. Hopefully it gets better for you. Have fun!

I know man, in the first months of the game I’ve never had frame rate problems or freezes in arena maps, but recently I had this issues very often. And when maps like Orion II and Pegasus II are selected, the problems are even worse. I think Forge maps shouldn’t be in Arena.
(And sorry for possible bad english)

Thanks man, I will try that, I hope it helps
I’ve noticed A LOT of framerate issues, as well as constant freezing, when playing public customs 
Whenever I get frame rate problems, it’s usually when someone is leaving/joining the match. It is extremely frustrating whenever it happens, especially when I’m in the middle of a gunfight.

It happens to me at any moment, even if there’s nobody leaving or joining

This issues are common in customs, but I have been experimenting this in arena dev maps

Tom French did say the frame rate issue in specific can’t and will not be fixed for h5( he implied it would require a complete rebuild of h5 and isn’t worth the risk so late into its life span) At least he gave that straight up anwser where as most of 343 try to stay as invisible as possible. Besides that a straight up bug fix would be nice. Don’t even need new content if they can at least fix the 100s of issues which in itself would improve everyone’s experience.

Wow, that’s sad, I can’t even play the game because this issues. I’m very disappointed with this game right now

It is unfortunate, and one that will only get worse with more updates (if they do anymore) and the more they get forge involved with halo 5 matchmaking. It’s really unfortunate because 343 used the push for 60 frames being why certain features were tossed aside, but if they can’t even make it work many would prefer they just return the missing features and say screw the 60 frames, which I’d agree with. There’s no reason to scrap split screen, sacrifice quality maps, etc etc if they can’t make 60 frames work correctly, especially when other devs are doing 60 while still holding onto past features.
H5 most definitely is a let down.

That’s just so unfortunate.
Yah I cant even get some of my friends to play this anymore because of this issue or some other crazy issue. Seriously though if these issues like this and others weren’t here this would have pushed this game to major heights! I just hope none of this caries over to H6. That would be more then unfortunate
Zippy.
I also had some framerate issues, for a couple of days now.
Not much but it is frustrating when it happens

We can only hope Halo 6 to be better than this
