Something Halo 3 did was make ranked and social playlists have a good working radar. 343, to be blunt, your radar is trash and putting a damper on my playing experience. It’s infuriating to get Spartan charged from behind and have they appear on radar at the last second, when your thrusters won’t save you. It’s bad when your enemy is in the same room as you, but can walk around you the entire time without being caught.
This radar is such a tease; you might as well not give us one. The competitive crowd always loved to preach for no radar. Just like H3 or Reach MLG/Slayer Pro, give them no radar. The “Team Arena” playlist is modeled after HCS, so have no radar for them. The rest of the ranked playlists in Arena should have 25m. Ranked has never been fun for me, ever since it became no radar or useless radar. The game suffers from being “no chill” friendly. Can’t expect all your players to hop in a game and callout. H3 was still very much competitive with a functional radar.
I’m loving that ffa is 6 players now, but it’s frustrating getting shot in the back by someone next to you. You’re fan base is not mlg, but you apparently thought so according to what we got at launch and how useless radar is.
