Region Lock?

I Don’t agree in this topic. (Specially in MCC)
But what do you guys think about this in Halo: Infinite?

I assume you dont agree with region locks given that half of the post seems to be in topic.

But definitely no in a sense of preserving a live multiplayer even when population starts to drop. There could definitely be a search engine that preferences more local players but definitely not a region lock.

Yeah there should be no lock. I believe they took it off for MCC so i dont see why they would put it in infinite

I think it’d be okay as an option. If you want to play on solid servers you can turn it on, if you want to play with a buddy in a different region or don’t care about server quality you can turn it off.

I live in Australia and honestly just like the current settings we have for Halo 5 where I can search focused, balanced and expanded. Even if focused is dead at least I have the option.

I don’t want to see region lock. I have family all over the world and it’s good to play together. If Halo Infinite used the server choice like Titanfall it would be a step in the right direction imo.

I think having a ping filter for ranked (at the very least) would be a better way to go. There are plenty of players on the same continent (head over to the Gears forums to see which country I’m referring to) that have pings above 500ms that completely wreck games. Meanwhile, I can play perfectly fine with most Brits and Aussies. I don’t play ranked nor do I play PvP a whole lot in Gears, but high pings ruin the experience for so many players who do. High pings have for sure ruined many a Warzone and Arena match for me. It doesn’t matter too much in Firefight but a filter is pretty much required for PvP modes.

I don’t think it will have region lock uppon release and really hope it doesn’t come to that. Halo fans are worldwide.
