Its nice to play at 140ms. Shots don’t register you get killed behind walls all the time and overall competitive Onyx games are a joke. Prior to this so called “fix” i used to get 70 ms by using geofiltering. At the time i didn’t know it was ruining the game for other players and thought that i was only playing with people close to me. Right now the game feels much much worse. I’d rather wait 5-10 minutes for a good ping ranked game than playing in 140ms and wanting to uninstall the game never to come back. It seems thats just another let down by 343.

Also thanks to 343 having the CTF challenge this week, people are leaving, suiciding, or feeding themselves to the enemy to quickly end matches, so they can get CTF matches for the Capstone challenge.
343 sabotaged Ranked with challenges. They also sabotaged Ranked with the new matchmaking update.
Onyx can pair with unranked, bronze, silver, and gold now, thanks to the new anti-filtering update they did.
Now you get to enjoy 170ms ping matches with horrible teams that die on purpose for challenges.
Incredible update, 343…
Ranked is busted, and they’re resetting ranks anyway.

s7etch: We fixed the challenges so that in the ultimate challenge you wont feel like you have another mountain to climb
Me: Finished all other challenges in 3 hours
Also Me: 6 days later still havent completed the ultimate challenge. I sit at 0% completion because i can’t find any ctf ranked games let alone get 3 wins at them.
s7etch: : …
Spoiler alert: You can’t use challenge swaps on the weekly ultimate challenge 
RIP

Same sort of thing.
I’m stuck at 75 ms (sporadically 250+ms) now and have the same issues you do with the through wall shooting crap and very poor performance. Frankly, this is just about as bad as playing Destiny Peer to Peer - that’s how bad it’s gotten.
During the beta, before people used the GeoFilt thing, my 4v4 matches were < 20 ms and my BTB were 30 to 40 ms and the game was buttery smooth. And that is me playing Solo and being in Western Canada.
I was away for most of December and January, so I never got back to PvP in Halo until lately - but it’s basically unplayable. Until they get this crap sorted out, I’ll start looking at somethign else for my PvP fix. as I’ve done all the Halo Infinite Campaign.

Geo-filtering “fix” just made desync 10x worse and somehow screwed up ranked matchmaking.

Thought they fixed the magical latency no other game struggles this bad with? Whoops! My melee still doesn’t work!
