Unplayable for Australian/New Zealand Players

So I was champion in swat like I do every season I won 25 games in a row the night the ranks reset. After that I cannot find a swat game on balanced/focused at any other time I can even make a smurf and search swat and find nothing. I rarely find team Arena games now, infection doesn’t work anymore no other arena playlists find games. (Btb hasn’t in 5 months) and before all this warzone assault died out for us like early December. Now it’s almost impossible to find normal warzone games at the time when EVERYONE is on (4 pm-10 pm) even like a Friday night I hop on and sit and wait to find a game, nothing happens so now everytime we search… We search expanded which gives us some American or Mexican server where we lag… You could have the best internet in Australia and go onto expanded and you will teleport 7 times going on a man cannon. Whoever is in charge of the servers at 343i is a moron we go to expanded arena and I play swat with 4 champions and we lose to platinums because we can not react to them shooting us through walls and you shoot them 4 times I the head with a br and nothing happens. A lot of people I know sit in matchmaking for up to 45 minutes hoping to find just one balanced game this deticated Oceania servers things 343i has done is a failure to all of us in Oceania. I have played/versed people all across the world in previous halos and there was pretty much no delay. I play this game 6+ hours a day everyday I am getting fed up with losing every game because I’m not getting out gunned out strafed or anything. It’s just simply the servers. My kd was always going up and up it was at almost 2.0 now it’s dropped a ton. Seriously I have almost given up on this game all my friends are close to giving up if not already given up. I’m pretty sure you guys at 343i do not care slightly about the Oceania region and all you care about is America and only America I play this game I play it give me the same experience everyone else gets its so frustrating. I don’t think I have rage quit often in this game maybe twice but I just did because of the lag it’s insane. Please do something about our lag. I don’t care what you do just improve it please :frowning: it’s so frustrating all I do is die arena is like a 20% chance to win in expanded and even if your with a 12 man in warzone on expanded we lag and die a ton and our bullets do not register. On everyone else’s screen we are missing all our shots and on our screen they shoot 2 bursts of the br and kill us before we can even react. Please if you are going to say the servers are fine or something like that don’t say anything. I’m sick and tired of this every day I just want to play the game like everyone else.

Trust me , I feel your pain… I also lag a lot even when I find a Balanced server, or sometimes even on Focused… Last season I almost won about 6 FFA games and lagged out of them ALL. Trying to get an ONYX in Team Arena in the Oceania??? Forget it, lag is a common factor in losing… Im Diamond 5 currently, but knowing the servers; it’ll lag.

343 you say the servers are fine… tell that to the Millions that play Halo 5 each day and lag…
Finding games on Balanced is almost unheard of…

Im losing interest to even play Xbox in general…

343 I LOVE HALO, LET ME PLAY IT
Let’s be honest, even if you were to read this Forum, you wouldn’t do anything about it,

…Would you?

In the past 10 months since the game has come out 343 have never tried to improve servers in the Oceania… It’ll never happen sadly…
