It would be nice of 343 to add in a searching system/algorithm when players search for arena team based games, so that random players don’t have to play against full teams of 4. This kind of experience right now, when it happens, annoys everybody and I don’t think, even though I clearly am not a programmer, not that much resources are needed to code such an algorithm and bring out for the next update. It will improve the experience of many solo searches so much. By the way, teams of 4 want to play against other teams of 4 as well to find out who is better, to duke it out, to have an intense competitive match in ranked games. When randoms play against teams of 4, neither of the teams will enjoy the most out of those kind of matchups. It will be a win-win situation for the solo searches and the team searchers when, 343 could put in this searching algorithm in the next patch.

Totally agree with having both of these. As a primarily solo player, it is frustrating for the match to start and realise that your team is against a pre made team, nothing quite like being 30 - 5 down and having your team lose a player or 2 making it damn near impossible. Also chances are their lag is pretty similar to one another, unlike a rag tag team thrown together for that 1 match with a massive variation in ping values amongst the teams
Yup, you are

> I agree 100%; I don’t know how many times I have entered into a Team Arena match to see the other team having the same clan tag in their gamertag, etc. However right now I think 343 have their hands full on trying to implement proper region matchmaking seeing that many people outside the US cannot join a match or when they do it becomes a lag filled mess.
Yup you are right RealKocho. I forgot about it, that they may have to focus all their resources with that region matchmaking. In advance, I don’t know how it is with other players around the world but I actually have no connection/lag/ping problems when i play on american servers (I base that opinion on, the team arena games where i think 4/8 people were Americans, which i could hear through their callouts. Thats totally invalid but who knows). Maybe this problem is fixed for the majority of players. But I really think this lagging out issue should be addressed very soon, BECAUSE I FORGOT TO ADD, that I’ve seen that happening to other players too. I remember once how I got into a 1v1 pistol duel against a guy and he he lagged out, although he was moving = no time to open the menu and hit the quit button. I see that happening to players like roughly once every 3-4 games (thats just my gut feeling because I didnt pay that much attention to it, but still). That’s how i would cope with bugs : Gamebreaking things should be fixed before the ones which just lower gameplay quality
oopps, i posted something in the wrong subject. this post was for a lagging out issue and receiving a ban afterwards. But still my points with how 343 should manage their resources remain. I’m aware that they might not know about this problem yet, so It would be great if you just go onto my subject : Fix the Lagging out Issue, or something similar and spread the word because i hate gamebreaking things and it ultimately hurts, depending on how big it is, a relatively big chunk of the community
