Game and Map weighting

Games Other Halo
1

Note to 343i: it is NOT awesome to get Meltdown CTF in all three voting slots, even if one is infinity. Let alone get the same map in two slots. Should NEVER happen.

All Map/GameType combination should have their own rankings based on total times played and separated into 3 even ranks. Unpopular, Neutral and Popular. And when its time to vote, voting options should be as follows

  1. random selection from the unpopular rank of maps/gametypes
  2. random selection from the neutral rank
  3. random selection from the popular rank

This why in the case of a tie the maps that aren’t played often get played, but popular maps can still win by just getting one more vote than the other two options.

I agree, a different map should always appear in each slot regardless of the gametype.

I went into the Team Slayer playlist once, and all three voting options were Pro…

I love that we can have both. We can have Infinity and Pro. It makes both parties happy. This is very me gusta.

But when I love Infinity, and could care less for Pro, and my only three options to vote for are Pro…

This is how it should go, gametype-wise:
Voting Slot 1: Infinity
Voting Slot 2: Pro
Voting Slot 3: Random

Map-wise, the same map can appear in both the first slots, but can never be the same map from either of the slots in the third voting slot. Like, for example:
Voting Slot 1: Solace
Voting Slot 2: Abandon
Voting Slot 3: Complex
The third slot can never be Solace or Abandon. It has to be something else. But the first two slots could both be Solace.

That’s how it should be, if you ask me.

I noticed that tonight in CTF that Meltdown took up two of the voting slots in one game. There was no difference between them either.

Be ok if one was Infinity but they were just two of the same choice?

It’s a known issue and is going to be fixed in the future.

It’s been going on for… ever I guess. So when you say it will be fixed do you mean in Halo 5?
