This forum is to help improve the multiplayer experience and give ideas on (kind of) new content. I will leave my advise onto a poll and hopefully you will vote. When it comes to Halo matchmaking, it’s an obvious problem that there is a massive lack of playlists and content in the multiplayer side of the game. It has come to my attention that there is no community social playlists in matchmaking, which is strange, since they have existed in both Halo 3, Reach, and 4. These playlists such as Infection, Grifball, Action Sack, and many others were the playlists that always kept me coming back to Halo for even more. With none of these game modes in matchmaking, online multiplayer feels the same around every corner. No matter what you choose, you will being doing the same things with the same objectives. The overall experience gets repetitive quickly and very boring. We need playlists that will break away and stand out from these playlists. We need a playlists of unusual community made content. This will ultimately add days, maybe even weeks of content into the online experience and these modes will never die. Infection is one of the most played playlists on Halo Reach, and I feel it might be the same way on here. These maps and gametypes could range from games like Halo 2 Classic, Halo 2 Anniversary, and Halo 3. Possibly even Halo 1 if such crazy unique game mods exist. Something good that they have done is that they have added SWAT and Team Snipers, some of my favorite playlists, but they have removed both and are sticking to a cycle that seems like one social playlists PER MONTH, which I think is absolute -Yoink-. I don’t play Halo MCC too much, but when I hop on, I want to be able to play the game modes I want to play so I can have fun and unwind. I always had the right to do so in previous Halo titles, so why am I not allowed to do so in this? I shouldn’t have to wait 4 to 5 weeks just to play a different game mode and not be able to return to the other. When you can only play one social playlist at a time, you will eventually get bored of it because at that time, it is the only thing you can play. Why limit the only unique content killing off population due to repetition, when you could keep adding more content and grow the population? This is a good chance for Halo to get more fans. WE NEED VARIETY! I’m sick and tired of the same old formula. WE NEED SOMETHING NEW!
I added options limiting the # of playlists that can be added so it won’t be to much for 343 to handle (I guess we don’t want to be asking for “too much”), so choose the option you would like the best.
Action Sack could consist of Grifball and Infection game modes. I would personally prefer a entire playlist dedicated to infection.
