If you want people to enjoy your game, the ranking system should not being doing crap like this.
Like this is seriously a joke, I literally created a second account to try to warm up with because the teams have not been balanced in my favor for the better part of a week and this is still happening. Your ranking system is massively flawed if this is happening, and though this is a Beta I had to share this picture because it literally sums up my largest gripe with Halo 5.
Lol I love how all these flaws are visible in the game but this backwards community tries so hard to ignore it.
All good man, same bull happens to me.

yeah its a wonder why this is happening… I’m mean its not like this is a beta or anything.
Team balancing leaves much to be desired with the Beta. I’d expect it to be better in release, but with how MCC is still broken after so many patches…

there is a difference between having a ranking system and using a ranking system. as far as i can tell the ranking system isn’t being used in the matching process during the beta, and if it is, then that’s most definitely a bug so deal with it
I’m not saying I don’t like the Beta but this is something I think needed to be shared, I want the full release to improve upon this.
for people saying ‘deal with it’ I clearly am, I understand it’s a Beta, I mentioned that in my first post, but this is an issue, and it’s good to share issues so they can be fixed.
Total incompetence. Halo IS NOT FUN when a bad team pays a good one.
Instead of implementing a working matchmaking system, 343 chose to decrease skill gap so that anyone can kill a skilled player. So annoying.
It’s a beta a year away from launch.
These things are most likely a work-in-progress at this point. Heck, even the ranking system isn’t finished yet.
It’s probably related to the fact that the population in the Beta is dwindling and it’s having to mismatch people.
Folks are getting bored already. 
Behold the party advantage! Where it basically comes down to “well search with a party or it’s your fault hurrrrr”
Yea what happened to the Halo 3 system again?
Did you not read the work-in-progress disclaimer that pops up every time you log in? It’s a BETA!

Exactly! You could be a rank 1 in H3 and party with 50s and then be put against low ranks that are nowhere near a rank 50 and making the match unbalanced. People are putting the previous halos on a pedastal, but they had flaws too.

because I clearly didn’t mention that in both of my posts. Read some more.
Hopefully it’s just because it’s a beta so they threw out competitive match finding in order to increase the number of games to gather feedback on.
I love it when people make threads to cite an issue on ranking when this is a beta and they even say to expect issues…
Seriously guys, its a beta, what do ranks matter right now? Cannot believe people go out of their way for stuff like this…
This is like crying because your ice cream melts… your rank doesn’t matter in a few days
What do you expect, there are going to be issues in a beta
Yeah, the matchups certainly don’t seem to be balanced at all right now.
Granted, this is a beta and a new game that people are still getting used to, so proper skill matchups aren’t really possible right now, but almost all games I play are SUPER one-sided. I think I’ve only played 3 or 4 games that ended up with the scores being close.

Halo 3 at least tried to split the difference though. My entire point is that if you searched solo in Halo 3 you normally didn’t get boned with parties everywhere.
as soon as I hit gold 2 I began only finding full onyx/semipro/pro parties to play against. needless to say, I’ve gotten my -Yoink- handed to me pretty much the last 2 days. shorter kill times were thought to help lower the skill gap, but in actuality, the skill gap widens. rarely does anyone play a 1v1 in this game. instadeath reigns. I’m also thinking this flinch deal that 343 calls a glitch and won’t own up to is factorin into some people’s aiming
issues (including my own).
id love to get it figured out in customs, but it’s a beta so that ain’t happening. some people can aim through flinch, it appears that I am not one of those people. there’s no way to turn impulse triggers off either, is there?
I don’t really see what the problem is. The matchmaking system in H5 seems to work just fine for me. All of the matches I have been in have had pretty well balanced teams. I don’t think they need to change anything in this respect. (there are other respects I think are far more important/ actual game balance issues) Maybe I’m just crazy lucky (which I doubt considering the low probability that I would have this luck every game for every single game I have played) but it seems to work just fine.
