Or a server selection page? Nobody wants these vague options.
I want to know 100% that I’m not playing on a server with a ping over 50.
I’m falling out of love with Halo due to the arrogance of 343 and the disrespect with which they treat their community.
I agree with server selection, why this was not in at launch is a strange one.
I still get some questionable moments, but overall the hit registration is pretty good on Halo. It’s definitely improved since a few months back.
Still I agree that having an option to lock the region would be far better than the dumb options we currently have. Why join skill and connection together? I don’t care who I play, as long as they die when I shoot them. I just want a good connection.
The new matchmaking preferences work fine. It’s a good solution to the problem. I don’t want to have to scroll through endless lists of servers!

They work, but its not the best solution. Choosing a server region would be far better, and knowing your ping to the server you are connecting to is basic information we should have available in an fps shooter.
why are we forced to a narrower skill search when we want a stable server?
So they unlocked region lock again?

they removed it a while back, they after massive protest make these new matchmaking search options, which seems to lock regions if you search using the focused option. But while searching focused you will also have a more strict skill search, so teams are more balanced. We still miss actually knowing/choosing where to connect, ping and remove these weird stricter skill based search options <— nobody asked for those.

I use focused and it still doesn’t work right for skill search. Time to use old school search options.

Going by posts in this forum they are far from being fine. As for lists of servers, there’s usually about 5 to choose from, no endless lists at all.
Deliberately vague options to hide behind…it’s so sad
