Remember the time when a developer truly communicated with their paying customers instead of throwing sone corporate BS in the room and never respond to it?

Internet speed cannot overcome physical limitations. Your packets still have to travel the distance of the connection so UK players connecting to NA servers will always be high ping.

Its gonna drop even harder when they do the mid season rank reset and dont introduce new playlists into ranked.

Well, perhaps the update didn’t work well for everyone I guess.
Myself I can’t complain, but then again, I never had issues before either.
I’ve noticed judging by player names ingame that I more often get matched with players from my country, so I’d guess matchmaking fix did work in a way.

I thought you guys fixed the ping issues…all day I been playing on 70 ping server which is a east coast…I’m living in Washington and have only gotten the server one time out of like 15 games. not to mention I haven’t gotten the server in California or Wyoming which are no higher then 50 ping…this is starting to piss me off. no way I should be getting anything over 50 ping considering I have 3-4 servers near me…

Just another excuse for their incompetence.
Now the network is not repaired and there are only few updates.
The number of players is declining.
In order to cope with this situation, they will reset rank,that’s all.

Why are you spending your time working on geofiltering when it’s a non-issue? The real world example you gave shows everyones connection just gets worse (higher ping) rather than having one singular person with extremely low ping and everyone else at a higher ping.
Please, please, please can you focus on actually providing a roadmap, fixing desync issues (which actually is game breaking), improving the store, coating mechanics and overall… adding actual content to your live service game which in it’s current state seems fairly dead to me.

it gives me the same server 99% of the time…its bs
My 1 game of Paylo Limited today and the desync was off the charts, hats off to 343. They are the only studio inept enough to consistently crap on their own game and somehow, make it worse each time.
Honestly fuxk this game. It was borderline unplayable before geofiltering, now its just straight up a waste of disk space.
Hurry up and fail 343 so ANY other studio can take a crack and put out a better halo title than you could have ever done. Rank fuxxing amateurs.
How on earth has no one been fired over this abysmal show of incompetence?

343 is the safest studio in xbox, and like pokemon, it’s easy to make money with a huge IP and fan base, not to mention that 343 has complete control over this IP.
Cartoon and novel and toy are all 343 tubes.
Most of their employees are old halo developers or industry elites. Originally, we would blame their management for 343’s clumsiness, but in fact, every time a game fails, their management will change.
It could be that their entire studio culture is toxic, and don’t expect them to be disbanded.
The best thing to do is to remove halo from the main game list.
The current halo is not worth investing thousands of hours to play.
Can a 343 dev member explain how it’s possible to have a different ping in each match? Like I get if the ping was always 20-25 or 30-35 but my god how does 1 game go from 20 to 78 or 80? Then back to 45, then 40, then 25, then 30, then 60… like I have the same good connection nothing has changed…. my ping in other games is consistently the same… I don’t understand “what fixes” were made…

Exactly right.
Why can’t we select the Server area we want to connect with?
Right now, I’m stuck at ~ 75 ms ping times in BTB and 45 to 75 ms for 4v4. During the beta and the first week or so of the game after launch, I was <20 ms for 4v4 and usually 30 to 40 ms for BTB.
At 75 ms ping times, the game play is horrific and I frankly have Zero interest in being shot through walls over and over and over.

It should, but what I’m getting after this fix is 75 ms ping times for BTB. During the beta and the first week of game launch,I was getting 30 to 40 ms Ping Times with sporadic 275 ms ping times (when the game decided Alberta Canada somehow should use European Servers as they were “Closest”). When it’s 75 ms, the game is a laggy broken mess, almost as bad as Destiny’s Peer to Peer mess.
What they need to do is allow us to select the Server we want to play on, just like Halo 5. If I’m solo, then this is the server I should be using. If I’m with friends in a group, then it’s the average of the ping times.
Until this gets sorted out, BTB is simply is not worth playing at 75 ms.
Don’t forget it took months and months of community complaints for them to implement region based matchmaking filters.
They also stated last week that BTB plays on 30 tick servers compared to 60 tick for 4v4, so naturally BTB is going to play like a 
at the best of times.
And people geo-filtered back then too
Yep…one of our team mates used to have a geo filter and the game was always much more enjoyable with better connections when he was online and hosted our lobbies. I actually bought my geo filter a couple of years ago in anticipation and to avoid the issues with Halo servers but obviously the game got delayed so I used it with CODMW instead…and obviously now it doesn’t work at all, even though it was working perfectly to keep me on EU servers until last weeks BS update so now the game throws me on US servers and I can’t do anything about it.

I’m a big Halo fan since the beginning and I really like Halo Infinite so far. However, I have a problem that probably affects several players, which only seems solvable with a workaround atm. The game does not save the settings, so I have to adjust everything every time I start the game. After some searching, it seems to be a problem with the settings file path. Since my name contains an ‘ö’ and the file path therefore contains a special character, my guess is that this causes a problem when saving. This is also reported by other players. A workaround now would be to either rename the profile (I would hate to do this on Windows) or create a new profile. I think it’s a shame that this doesn’t seem to work for a triple-A title. Actually, the bug should be able to be fixed with a simple fix as well, at least that’s what I claim with my beginner programming knowledge. It would be nice if this problem can be fixed for me and also other players. Especially if it is about such easy to implement things that a game MUST be able to do.
I would be very happy about a feedback!

You’ll be much better off just changing your name slightly. No need to create a new account but having to check and edit your settings every time is ridiculous if you know there’s a simple fix to prevent you doing this. Don’t waste your time requesting and waiting for 343i to fix it…if and when they do then just change your name back again.
I’m not the one being disrespectful. Seeing as though you just joined 2 mins ago, I now see no reason to value your opinion.
Will you see any update on servers? Otherwise I uninstall the game and I don’t worry anymore.-
it is impossible to play in LATAM, at less than 160ping, and that is if you find a ranked game
