Arena population 0.

The way to fix that, add the full five AA loadouts. Seriously 343, this is a no-brainer and most likely a really simple fix.

You have a top 20 most played XboX live game that has close to no people playing the ranked version while at least a hundred thousand players (maybe more) are playing the game a day.

Reward those that actually like Reach and the gameplay it offers now that the people that hated it have left despite everything you gave them.

Nobody plays super slayer either.

> Nobody plays super slayer either.

I honestly have wondered if 343 has seen the population of playlist like Arena and Super Slayer and thought to themselves;

“We might have wasted our time.”

Or they might have thought to themselves “sh*t it seems people don’t like TU, maybe we didn’t know better than Bungie”.

I doubt anyone at 343 has looked at Reach since their ahem game came out.

As far as your topic goes, I’d like to see Evade in more game types.

The Reach population counter is frozen at the moment so the figure is not accurate. Arena is a fairly low populated playlist but I’m confident there’s more than 0 as I played a couple of games awhile ago.

Yep, they listened to a very vocal minority and implemented changes the majority of players really did not want.

This (i believe) then had a negative impact on H4, as all competitiveness was eradicated from the new title.

I don’t think that 5 loadouts will help Arena.

I don’t even search Arena because I can’t find anybody, but I do find games from time to time in Super Slayer.

Sprint only arena plays so much better but honestly… If there is no one to play then there is no discussion here. It’s gotta become a little less competitive and ad in more AA.

TU armor lock is still abusable but tolerable

What do all y’all feel about TU active camo?

Remove everything that has to do with the TU from reach and remove super slayer. Arena was at its best whne all the armour abilities were working together.

Armor Lock didn’t really need to be in playlists with no vehicles. Camo is more of a nuisance to teammates than helping anything out.

Armor abilities are a pain in the -Yoink- as of now, armor lock, active camo, and jetpack have really pissed me off since day 1.
Better yet, include strategic ones like hologram and sprint, maybe evade.
However, I wouldn’t expect a patch anytime soon, because it appears that 343 is too lazy to apply a simple fix for the player counter, much less a whole patch.

More people have voted in this poll then are currently playing Arena LOL!

Ranked Reach gameplay should have the very thing that makes Reach Reach, AA. MLG has what is considered “competitive” settings, so if people are looking for those settings, that where they should go.

People that actually like playing with AA deserve to have an Arena with the AA they like to play with. That 343 removed AA from ranked Reach was a giant mistake and considering the population of Arena currently, there is really no valid argument otherwise.

Two things that could have helped out with Arena is 1) Cedits you get for winning should be the highest payout in the game. 2) Should take more than 12 games to get a rank.

More credits and longer seasons for me. The fact that more credits are given out in griffball and firefight… Pretty insulting. Then whatever shinny rank you earn in Arena… Poof, gone after a few weeks. I know this was down to be “less attractive to cheaters” but your business model shouldn’t be to make your customers care less about the game.

There’s a gametype I created I want you to look at. I think it may still be in my File Share. Try that out with 7 other players.

Get rid of super slayer and bring in Noble and defiant map pack playlist. Seriously, I have been waiting to play the DLC maps again in such a long time.

I personally like Super Slayer. I agree, though, they should replace it because I like the dlc maps and Super Slayer is dead anyway.

Just make super slayer require All DLC to enter. Two problem, one fix.
