It’s been said a million times, but the matchmaking is still horrendous. When matchmaking solo, it tends to work decently at best, but if you throw anybody else into the mix, things get crazy.
My report:
Matchmaking with a two-person party: constant connection issues. Xbox party tends to go haywire. We constantly get disconnected from matches, and then we can no longer even party up until completely restarting our consoles. Fixes the problem for a few minutes, then it happens again. Only got a couple matches in before becoming completely frustrated and rage quitting.
Matchmaking with three: Good luck, bro.
Matchmaking with five and six: Entirely impossible. We never got a single match. Resorted to playing with ourselves. Thanks 343.
I long for the day when this game works and my friends no longer hate me for encouraging them to buy and Xbox One.
