HALOWARS mATCHMAKING *buG*

Hello
players of Halo Wars, aswell community members of halo waypoint. Most players are already very aware of the issues of connecting to other players during the matchmaking process, it happens on various occasions but the other day was by far the worst. We aren’t sure of what is causing this, but it can’t be everyones connections being bad, it must be from the halowars match-making system.

Yesterday Sunday afternoon, Aprill 1st, 2012; i was playing with my 3s team and we searched for 30minutes at a time to get matches. One annoying incident is that we would find 3 players and then lose them over-over, and over again. The far more inferiating incident is when we finally found a game and the count down 3-2-1-0, then back’d out of the connection and went back to searching. So after a long time of searching we finnally got a game, against randoms. So after all that, we decided to just do scrimages and our connection to the other players were fine. This incident happened all over the game and im sure in almost every playlist. I’m certain of it being in 3v3 so i cant speak for all playlists.

Does anyone know of why, or what has caused this? Is the system breaking down? Is halowars becoming obselete? What is the future of HaloWars?

thanks,
K5P

Everyone had that problem (there’s even another thread about this). No one knows for sure what caused it, but it appears to have affected other halo games as well. All we know is that it was only temporary. Hope this helps.

System seems to be giving up connecting the groups too soon. That or one of the people in either group has restrictive NAT. You checked that you and both your friends could see All three found players?
