Halo 5 Party Matchmaking Still Not Functioning

Our group of 3-4 still has to reset our games once or twice per session, and more often than not we get separated during the matchmaking process and must use the Party App to “Leave Multiplayer.” Recently, a random member of our party will be dropped during the matchmaking search process. While the matchmaking is still faster and more reliable than the MCC debacle, Halo 5 has a ways to go before earning my trust and my money. Yes, I understand this is a “Beta” and all that goes with it, but the fact is that I haven’t seen much said about this and I want to spread awareness that this game still suffers from similar (and unacceptable) matchmaking difficulties. My friends and I were unable to get one single game of Halo 5 in 30 minutes of trying as a group of 4. Previous nights had their fair share of troubles, but at least we got a few games in.

Yea. It was obviously way too much to ask for… us thinking they would produce a working match making party system first try. Although… it is leaps and bounds better than the H2A.

This is true-it is better, which is pretty sad. However, they have almost a year to fix this issue in this case. Let’s see how this plays out.
