Ranking/Matchmaking is still garbage

I’m tired of being a Diamond for days because I get the worst teammates every game or get stuck with platinums or low diamonds against onyx and champion players. Twhen I did run with a team last night we won 13 games in a row and I still didn’t rank up but then I lost 1 game and ranked down. Can someone please explain this to me. It seems like a lot of people hate the ranking system but of course 343 doesn’t listen and won’t fix it.

Not to hop on the bandwagon… After the May Season reset, all of the games have been filled with Lag and cause slow character movement… They just play slower… And they are definitely not matched well… It feels like the lag players get advantages and then there is the additional rubber-band of 5 seconds or so. Go for the kill and the next thing the spartan is killing me from a new position… This season sucks with whatever changes they snuck in at May reset…
I hope at least during the Focused Matchmaking it takes Connection speed into account… (Fiber 40/5) And just maybe even CSR ranking and Teams… That would be great… The only games playable at normal speeds now are custom games… ugh

It seems like 343 finally listened to everyone and fix the ranking system. I was able to move through the rankings quicker than ever yesterday and it’s nice to finally see a progress bar for the playlists. Now it would seem they have messed up Warzone though. I played 2 matches yesterday in which I couldn’t use any REQs including loadouts.

It hasnt helped me much using focused matchmaking. I still get put on us servers when i am a uk player. Once again the eu players are blammed over by 343 when really we need an option of choosing region lock or not. Thats what is really needed more than anything else. But 343 dont give the impression of caring mch about the non north american players…

Good job, here you go!
