In Multiplayer Matchmaking, if you have more than just one team’s worth of players in your party, the system randomly chooses which players to put on which team (it does this for incomplete parties as well but the “group” stays together).
In Custom Games you have only two options… play on teams of player choosing or don’t have teams. I’d like to see a third option added if possible… a Randomizer (just like in Multiplayer Matchmaking) with a choice for number of teams to fill in for (like the party size limiter in the lobby).
I doubt it would be too difficult to add into the game since most of the code is already written to accomplish these tasks, but as someone who hosts the Forum Custom Games Nights from the Microsoft XBoxLIVE Forums this is an option I’d really get a lof of use out of.
crosses fingers (Here’s hoping to 343i doing this for me and all the rest of us Custom Gamers…)
