Ping vs Wait Time

Since the update, I’m jumping into matches extremely quickly regardless of ping. I was under the impression that this had been changed to focus on better quality matches?

I don’t want to the game to try and find me a game for all of 5 seconds just to jump in at a ping of 170. That doesn’t improve my experience even if 343i think it may do.

How about this as a basic rule - if the ping is likely to be higher than the wait in seconds based on server location - don’t put us in that game.

The ping means nothing to me, the 27ms means nothing. Even when it says i have the best connection i see lag and Dsync.

Oh, it’s still bad either way. But at least if I get a high ping I’m prepared for it and can adjust…
