Seriously, I played 5 matches of slayer. One had over 200 ping and another had 144 ping. I dont even like going above 50 ping. There needs to be a ping limiter in the options.

Yeah fr, I only really have two glaring complaints with this game which is the Scorpion controlling poorly and being put into high ping servers when I KNOW there are oceanic servers. Donāt care so much in quickplay but in Ranked itās pretty disheartening to do worse, then potentially lose progress to my next rank because I was put in a 150ms+ game. Literally came to the forums to have a rant after I was put in to a 230ms game at Diamond III level.
The foundation of this game is so solid, but these issues are glaring and have been present since launch 2 months ago
Quick follow up. I quit that game immediately and Iāve now been dropped a third of a rank. Love that for me
@DarthYoda117, Under ācontrolsā there is an opinion called āmovement assisted steeringā check that box in the settings to turn vehicles the direction you are pushing the left joystick.
Doesnāt seem to do anything for the Scorpion from what I can tell sadly. Miss the proper tank controls
Yes, even with that enabled, the āScorpionā does have really wacky steering, Iāll agree with you there! The āmovement assisted steeringā does help a bit though, at least it did for me.
This is my normal
Most of matches with ping 180ms
On Gears 5 I can play 55ms matches
The best ive got in halo infinite is 75ms to 100ms (supposedly on the same place of gears 5 servers)
And sometimes I get 230ms, even 450ms
Matchmaking is a joke

Go to Google and type: āNO MORE LAG Halo infiniteā (without quotes)
There is a post on Reddit explaining how to ādisableā the regions you donāt want. Works like a charm for me. 5ms ping every single match in Australia. Bear in mind this will likely get you in some unbalanced matches depending on your skill level, but so far so good for me. Iām low Onyx.

The matchmaking tries to balance wait times. If there is not suitable game within a certain timeframe it will put you on overseas servers instead.
I agree that the tradeoff there is pretty bad right now. They really should give people some control over it. Be that through region selection or at least like in H5 where you could specify a preference (prioritize short wait times vs. prioritize connection quality).

Matchmaking should have the option to set the own priority like āfind as fast as possibleā or āsearch for best connectionā.
Should also have the option āwhat should be more wheightedā the āthe connection (low ping)ā or āsbmmā.
See I would, but Iā;ve heard that this can get you flagged for cheating and Iām not keen on getting banned either lol
Unless the game is completely dead there is no reason EVER to match me on anything other that EUW server.
itās so simpleā¦
why would it match me on a 250ping AUS server, I just donāt understand.
EXACTLY, Iām in the opposite boat being in NZ. If I see you out there at least weāll know that one of us has a decent connection hahaha
I really canāt see how this will flag you for cheating. worst scenario it will take longer to find matches, that is it. Iāve been using this for a month now. No issues.
