Back in the good old days with Halo 3, there were alot of factors which increased replay value for alot of people. One of these was the group function on Bungie.net. I was one of the leaders of a group called the Clan of Elites. At one point, we had nearly 3000 members. The group function added another demension to halo. It gave people a way to easily create clans/groups or whatever else you want to call them. It had a forum for the members to talk, share experiences, and share maps/gametypes. It had a customizable ranking system which gave people the desire to contribute in order to obtain higher positions. it had a news feed on the homepage. It had a customizable home page. And it had much more to offer as well.
I believe that the group function needs to make a return in order to give Halo for Xbox One a special trait that Halo 3 had. I believe that if this is included, the Halo community would become a little stronger, and that the group function would tremendously help with replay value by making it easier to find groups of people to hang out with. The group function also helped with recruiting players for custom game matches, which is something I don’t get to experience often enough anymore.
So please 343, bring this unique feature back to Halo!
