I’ve been searching the past 20 minutes in several different playlist and I have yet to find a match…This is pathetic…Is it because my lvl is too high?
Its pretty ded on PC, its because so many are having FPS issues with MP on systems that would have no problems otherwise,
not to mention how slow the patch is taking.
Are you playing on PC or Xbox? and how is your connection?
because i’m playing on xbox and I get games pretty well instantly.
Ofc its dead !!!
Its 3 weeks after release and still unplayable.
Seem’s like microsoft has to much money they don’t even care !!
I’m on Xbox right now in a party were all but 1 having issues connecting to the servers.8

Xbox. 20mps
I finally found a match but the game went out of sync near the end. Now I’m currently waiting for another match and it’s already been 10 minutes. I really think it’s because my lvl is 26 and the game is constantly trying to match me with similar levels which is really screwed up considering how low the population is.

Have you already downloaded the new update (released in the last hour) or were you playing before that and are yet to download it (that might be something to do with it).
I always find games pretty instantly on Xbox One. This may be a given, but make sure you have an Open NAT. If it’s Moderate or Restricted it can severely impact matchmaking, as you have to find a lobby with up to 5 other people who have compatible NAT’s.
Pretty sure Level doesn’t have much (if any) impact on matchmaking. Been in games with a level difference of 20/30 on more than one occasion (Blitz)
Actually, have just downloaded the update and it’s taken a good five minutes to find my first Blitz game, (normally it’s around 20 seconds). I think the update may be the reason - people are still updating perhaps?

Most likely. Unless 343i screwed up the match making algorithm, it shouldn’t take that long.

Second and third games were much faster to find (20-40 sec) - seems back to normal now

y’all blowing it out of proportion, on the console master race 
it’s doing just fine, i’ve had no issues with matchmaking or time to find people since it came out pre-order release date, i think people just need to download the pretty big patch for most people internet, but if matchmaking is broken, then yall have every right to complain
y’all blowing it out of proportion <------- u kidding me ?
Look the multiplayer is not dead it’s on your side
Plus it’s was 4 am what were you expecting
Whats that kinda bs ?
U need to get games 24/7 with new games (good games)
Game is more or less dead on PC. Even disregarding the crashing issues, the gameplay is just objectively poor and stale. There are dozens of much better RTS games on PC, for a fraction of the cost. Most of the best players have refunded already.
On console, this game will cling on for a while, mostly because there is literally no other decent console RTS, and Xbox players are loyal to the Halo brand. As far as competition goes, console HW2 is dead as well. Strategic depth is just as nonexistent as the PC version, with the additional fact that micromanagement isn’t a thing with a controller. Barely qualifies as an RTS game tbh.

Its a little early to be putting the last nail in the coffin of a game two weeks old. In my experience this game is fresh, fun, and engaging. Console players just need to get used to RTS gameplay, have a few balance tweaks, and we’re good!
this game needs more than a few balance tweaks its ridiculous
