Subject: I've played on foreign host EVERY game today

I ma not complaining I suck I am complaining you suck becuase you can't win a game against a team without some strategy rather than just having fun with random mayhem. I'll stick with rumble oit.

Except for one - my host.

Discuss how much of a joke this game's host selection is.


I am one of the few and proud who stuck with halo 3.

I play on Mexican host, which is far worse than any other host I've played on, 3 to 4/5 out of my games. I feel your pain.

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Halo: Reach host selection seems to give host to the worst connection out of the bunch. I don't understand how this works, shouldn't it go to the strongest and most reliable connection?

Maybe you should use the filter and search under "Good Connection" LOL that will do it!

Italian host = holy -blam!-

How would you know if you pulled host?

"In Halo 3 not all 50's were good players, but all good players were 50's."

Your opinion is invalid.

Connection is noticeably bad for me in 1 out 25 games or so.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

How do you know if you've been selected to be host?

OT: I have most likely never been host, to my knowledge, so yeah, it is awful.

Your reticle will reset when you spawn/respawn. Example.

I've only gotten host once on reach and that was when I was having a 1v1 with a spectator and I had a moderate NAT type so dont complain until you know what I've been through with connection.

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

Host selection and inconsistent internet is making Skyrim look better an better.

Realy bad, just played a few games on red-yellow bar US Host. Seriously how the -blam!- can the kid with dial up get host, resulting in a lagg fest for all players and no migration. I always play on BS US host and moste of them have realy bad connection, sure i live 5000 miles away but ad the bad host selection in this game and it results in BS random gameplay.

Be thankful you've never played a game full of Japs. I did once during Halo: 3 and I think it's safe to say that was the worst game ever.

  • 04.12.2012 3:46 PM PDT

Lol, that's cute. As of now, I have ~75 games of arena with 1 of them on Aussie host and all the others on foreign host (predominantly Euro host).

So basically my whole Arena experience is on a 500-1000ms ping, yay : )

Bungie use a system developed by MS. Its a so called host history system, your Xbox records the average connection for your xbox host history and from there the game selects a host. Say a player with 8Mb up have recorded say 100 games as host with some what good connection, then he/she will most likely get host over a player with 70Mb up and only few games recorded as host. I wish Halo would select host just as CoD whitch is always the player with best upload and not this host history crap.
