After the big 1.4GB update for Halo, I can personally say that the matchmaking process has been going much “smooth-er”, sort of. Teams are not always balanced, but it seems as if an attempt is being made to help balance the teams. The lobby is still sometimes being split up after backing out, and I still have times where I am kicked from the lobby for “failure to connect to host.” My search times are much, much faster than they have been, but still not perfect. Overall, I’d say the update was a success for matchmaking, but we definitely have a long way to go. With all of the negative things being said here, is there anyone else out there with any positive things coming out of this update?
It wasn’t working for me after the patch. I power-cycled the Xbox and now it’s match after match…like you said still issues but it’s working overall. We’ll see if it lasts, but 7 so far!
I restarted mine immediately after, since it was such a large update. I just assumed it would need a restart to take effect
its a bit better than day one yes
takes 45 mins to get a game as opposed to a hour
after searching since the patch came out I am on my first game of the night guise!!!@$##$$!#$
aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnd im disconnected.
Yeah I’m still getting disconnected here and there, but I feel like it is still much more responsive now
