Unbalanced skill level

It looks like this is not talked about enough. Games are constantly one sided. I just played a game with a team of rank 30, 23, 25, 17, and 3 against a team of 1, 1, 5, 14, and 6… Its not like high ranks are partying with low ranks to try and boost. The game just puts together terrible teams. This needs to be fixed. Way to many steaktaculars going on.

search times are better. But the games are mostly not fun when they are so one sided.

Matchmaking is broken in general and, believe me, it’s talked about enough.

You make a strong point. 343 promised too much and they were not able to deliver. So sad as they have most likely completely eradicated the Halo series with this game.

oh, I understand there is a lot more wrong with this game. They could easily make it less painful if at least the H2A playlist worked near correctly. People can actually start having fun if the teams are close to balanced.

And recently (a few days as far as i know) when I find a good player on my team I want to join, the search doesn’t work when we party up. I have to join solo and hope for a competent/balanced team. I don’t know whats up with that either.

I see this a lot as well. They do need to figure something out with it, I like games that end 50-49 not 50-9.

Yeah, until 50’s match other 50’s instead of 1’s this ranking system is a failure. If they can fix it I will be surprised

You couldn’t be any more correct. Until we get both an intuitive matchmaking system that teams players of equal ability together against players of that same ability AND we have a ranking system that accurately ranks us, (one that analyzes kills, deaths, and assists along with wins and loses) we won’t be able to truly know who is better. A crappy player can be teamed up with great players for a few games in which they win and see his rank go up and a great player can be teamed up with crappy players and when they lose see his rank go down even if he has a 3.0 k/d for the game. If each team for every match had one crappy player and one great player to equal effect than i suppose it would be a fair match, but that is not what has been happening, hence the reason you see players with terrible k/d’s with a high rank and vice versa. This continues to ring true in the Halo 5 beta in which many silver players have excellent kda’s and many gold and onyx players have terrible kda’s. It just doesn’t make sense. In first to 50 slayer especially, you are doing you team a disservice if you can’t get more kills than deaths and therefore you don’t deserve to increase rank even if by happenstance you win the match.
