4K updates but no basic lobby fixes?

Great that we are still getting updates. But why hasn’t the lobby been fixed. Every Halo game previously was laid out similarly. You could see everyone’s gamer tag and most importantly who was talking in the lobby. Any arguments against it like “people will quit if they see someone who dominated the last match” is bull because if that’s the case then they’re just gonna quit during the game and then we have lopsided teams. I just want to know who to mute when I hear feedback or obnoxious music being played without muting the whole team. I like to talk to teammates to coordinate and win games. Is that such a foreign concept? And I know you can do it during gameplay but just make it also available in the lobby, right?

Im sure if 343 can release a major 4K update then surely this would be a menial task for them. I’ve seen several forums with this same complaint but still nothing. Is anyone from 343 even listening? This is so obvious it’s frustrating.

Anyone agree? Can we do something about this?

I agree with everything you said here. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s likely they will add this in Halo 5, but hopefully we get fully functional pre-game lobbies in Halo 6. I mean, there’s not much of a point to unlocking stylish armor and stances if other players can only see them in the post-game carnage report
