I have had a horrible experience with Halo 5. I bought 3 xbones for my Halo Room, and I was looking forward to retiring the xbox 360s or relegate them to media sharing/guitar hero duty. After trying to play Halo 5 online, my friends/family and I frequently go back to playing games on the 360s BECAUSE THEY WORK. I purchased the xbones for MCC and Halo 5 exclusively, and I don't have any other games for them, nor do I intend to buy any. I have dropped thousands of dollars to be able to play a game and Halo 5 just doesn't work. The lag makes the game unplayable (even in campaign sometimes). Maybe I need to check my setup or forward ports...not so much. I've had a bit of experience with multiple console support on my network. 7 years of experience. Halo 5 is the first game in which multiplayer is unusable for me.
Bright House Road Runner Lightning, Central FL (speedtest 86 down, 6 up, 11ms to Orlando)
Open NAT on all consoles
Netgear Nighthawk wireless router (best stock firmware I've found, no need for DD-WRT)
Netgear GS108 switch
Motorola SB6121 Modem
CAT6 cable, no wireless for gaming
This setup has served me faithfully for years and continues to do so when I'm not playing Halo 5.
Here's a pic of this setup working perfectly for Destiny for the 360, the only non-Halo game I play.
WTF, 343?
