Make it to where a single person cant be matched against a full team and have their team completely of single individuals who are searching by themself.
Also make it to where the “RANKED” playlist in the game dont allow for guest while the “SOCIAL” playlist does.
Yes there is a Ranked and Social playlist. The playlist that use individual scoring is social and Team scoring aka Winning is Ranked.
That is all
Now I’m only saying this because i like to search alone most of the time and I like to be able to play a game without getting dominated by the other team because they are a full team.
I’m all for throwing one guy into a team of 3 searching.
Look at the way H3 did the search most games were well balanced for the most part but half the time ill find myself in a game with people that dont know what they are doing and the other team is communicating very well, No hate towards them thats what you need to do but when i search alone i want to get matched up with other people searching alone not a full team.
There were a couple of different areas that bungie just had nailed down perfectly that never needed to change. The menu UI was one of them. Another was the way playlists were set up. A ranked and social split worked pretty much perfectly. Yet another thing that 343i changed just for the sake of change.

Bungie took away Halo Reach’s ranked social split very early on, unless you count 1 ranked playlist vs the rest social.
Also, I think single gametype playlists for Objectives can work really well with refinement. Player choice is a really underrated thing. If you add up the populations of the Oddball, KOTH, and Team Regicide playlists before they got merged, there were way more people. This is especially apparent now, even when you factor in the game’s decline in popularity since then.
