Would that still be the case with the Geo-Filter disabled though? I've had it disabled since I downgraded. Given that parties are moving to servers instead of P2P, is it possible there is a server whitelist issue of some kind?

I'm still on 1.03.6j as per my post in the issues thread on the beta forum. It worked for me initially but I'm now getting 0x8923103D errors again when joining party chats.

Any chance I could get access @Netduma Fraser? Been eager to test since June.

Ahh, that's unfortunate! I was hoping it would work better with 3.0 and I just had to wait for my beta email. I'm well aware that the team loves Halo, I've been matched against Iain on Halo 5 before, and was watching one of his Halo 5 livestreams where he let everyone in the chat get an upgrade early because someone donated £100 😀 Here's hoping it isn't too complex to fix!

I've been experimenting with my settings for the past 2 days and I'm at my wits' end. These experiments include: Ping filtering Various distances (600km - 2000km) Various distances + Ping Assist (30 - 50) The Halo profile Launching the game with Filtering Mode enabled Launching the game with Spectating Mode enabled, then enabling Filtering Mode The game refuses to search for a match whilst Filtering Mode is enabled. I thought I had figured it out the other day when I launched the game in Spectating Mode, enabled Filtering Mode and then immediately searched for a match and was placed on the North Europe server, I was then away from my console for about 10 minutes afterwards and my hopes and dreams were shattered by the aforementioned refusal to search for a match. I noticed Fraser mention testing in this thread for a similar issue: Was this testing conducted? What were the results?

That's odd, I have my Halo 5 service on 2,000km between France and the UK and I've found games first time.

Where do you have your home location set to?

Is your geo radius on 1,500-2,000km?
