High ping and Desync

So i thought the ping and desync was sorted, turns out i cant get in a game today with out one or the other to the point ive given up on playing today.
with the swat event there is no way to do well or go 1…0 with these issues.

is anyone else still getting these’s issues?

I haven’t stopped having problems since the beta.
I also had to leave the event because the lag and desync were completely ridiculous. It is much more noticeable than in any other game mode. Of course, I play from that “remote place” that is Europe.

Are you both on pc? I’m in the UK on series x and don’t seem to have a problem. I wonder if it’s the pc game code or something.

I’m on pc and have been having these problems for a while. It wasn’t like this during the beta for me but for some weird reason after the patch to add in swat and team slayer modes the issues started and progressively get worse. My internet is stable and infinite is the ONLY game I see these problems in. I even went as far as to connect my pc to my phones hotspot on a 5g network and it still lagged out and rubberbanded me everywhere

series x, austria, desync in 80% of my games. Ping is usually good, it just isn’t a criteria with this netcode.

Its gotta be something with this game on the 343i side. My ping usually runs anywhere in game between 35-45 ms. There should be no lag or desync at all

I play pc mainly, but i never got these issues till the last patch. Im wired aswell so its not my connection as ive tested so mainly times

I’m not 100% sure what desync is, but I have not felt any online problems with this game. Other than the extended problem of getting into a BTB game. That was fixed.

Was doing the event and I got put in High Latency matches where I just immediately quit, sorted my backside

Lol, welcome to Halo Infinite.


343i, bring back open lobbies and open communication.

Im in the us the game says my ping is 20-38 but its defiantly closer/feels like i have 90-120

I have actually lowered my ping from roughly 60~ to now being roughly 40-50, and there are games where I could swear to you I have to have 200+ ping. So I think they changed what it claims on your screen, rather than actually fixing anything.

High ping and desync was never “sorted.” There has been zero official word from 343 since February so I doubt it’ll ever get fixed at this point.

I can’t imagine what your ping is like. I live on the west coast USA about two and half hours from 343 and I get 100+ ping games consistently. Thankfully I have fiber optic so it’s not absolutely unplayable but it’s still a huge problem.

Are you from SEA? The servers you get out into if you are from that region is beyond garbage most of the time. Most people who say they get good servers are from Western or EU countries.

I’d average 200-250 “unstable latency” back when I used to play compet, it was pure agony. SBMM would often expect me to hard carry 3 make a wish Foundation kids too with that ping and that just turned me off compet after the last reset. I mostly just mess around with friends in social now or play while I VC in discord

80% of my matches I have 250+ ms ping times. 20% are ~ 30 ms ping times. I get so few games at 30 ms I can’t tell if De-Synch is an issue or not.

From playing Halo MCC/H5 and being able to select my server, I know that the 250 ms ping times are because Halo Infinite is connecting me to a Server in Europe and that the 30 ms ping time is from a NW USA Server in Seattle. I’m in Alberta Canada (MDT) and I’m playing solo usually later afternoon or early evening.

Until they implement manual server Selection, Halo Infinite will remain uninstalled on my Xbox. It doesn’t matter if there is Co-Op Campaign or Forge, the game infrastructure is badly broken and makes it unplayable.

From Seattle? No. But I leave about 3 hours south of Seattle. And yea for some reason the servers in Washington state are god awful. Despite Microsoft/Xbox being from Seattle.
