I’ve been looking forward to these cea maps for a long long time now. I really feel that the maps bungie loaded us with are grey and stale feeling especialy as time has gone on, and many of them had poor map flow to begin with. I realize not everybody has cea or the dlc and so these maps are still needed, but I’ve none the less been counting on this to refresh reach multiplayer. now as I play CEA I’m realizing Reach multiplayer is all but excluded from every list but anniversary FFA and even there it is limited. This must frustrate players who cared more for CEA campaign and a new reach experience, and also those that own reach and simply bought the anniversary map pack with little interest in the Ce like multiplayer. I love Reach and didnt need a different feeling halo. I didn’t want the comunity devided, but it seems to be now, there are those that want to play CE multiplayer, and those that play reach multiplayer. I’m feeling left out along with my family and fellow gamers. I expected at least one playlist to have reach gametype settings with aa and all but on the new maps. i guess what I mean is there ought to be some middle ground playlist until enough players get it to start seeing it in the reach playlists same as the other dlc packs had. i had looked forward to a double team match on battle canyon, or a swat match. and plenty of team slayer games in all the maps, with a reach map option to break it up some and a possibility of defiant if players in the playlist all have those map packs. me and my brother in law both feel this way and there must be more out there who do. I know eventually these maps will make it into regular playlists but until they do show some love, anybody else feel this way or am I odd man out right now.
btw I dont mean to say I wont play these playlists i just mean these gametypes are radically different and should be seperated, not force ffa cea players to go back to reach style if they are unwilling and not force reach players to endure matches they dont care for until a reach gametype gets the vote, its not worth it to endure the cea experience when you dont want to just for the slayer dmrs gametype u wanted once every hour and a half on the map pack u paid for and deserve to be able to play the reach way if you choose when you choose to do so. and that rough time estimate is if your lucky in the vote maybe longer if your not so fortunate. yes i realize custom games can accomodate my desire but thats painstaking efort as well when you have a short people you know personally friendslist like mine, i’m not overly social while gaming. every other dlc has had a playlist, if a temporary one, for reach gametypes. this one should too. just a simple team slayer with objective all reach style games on each new map and variant that apply to 8 player games. this would do fine, nothing has to be fancy and require noble defiant or any of that though reach maps would be nice but even those might be too complicated to maintain a population. just simple reach style on anni maps.
