I know I’m not the only one who misses the way it used to be.
6 teams of 2. It was a lot more fun than 4 teams of 3.
It was a lot more competitive than it is now.
Plus, idk about anyone else but I’m never playing with just 2 friends. There’s usually 4 of us. Which now now provides us no opportunity to play MT because there’ll be that one person stuck on another team. May not be a big deal for some but I personally hate being that one guy left in the dust.
What’s worse than that is when I only have 1 friend I’m playin with and end up with a third person we can’t communicate with. I’ve had idlers. I’ve had people who leave at the start of a game, or mid game. I’ve had betrayers, etc.
How much sense do teams of 3 make in an FPS anyways? It feels so off…
I’ll also point out, in my humble opinion, Rocket Race (with mongooses) was 100x more fun than Rocket Hog Race. Hog Race get’s annoying and redundant, I think. The rockets from the hog dont bounce you up or away, they usually repeatedly spin you in 1 place or within a small area. Mongoose’ are more ‘flexible’, if you will, they bounce easier, up in the air, or off walls. Ya know? Too add, I’m sick of playing on Hemorrhage. Paradiso comes up every once in a while but it sucks navigating a hog around that terrain.
I miss having Boneyard. I miss paradiso being fun, the old rocket race would’ve probably worked well on some of the community maps as well. Abridged to name one I’ve played custom rocket races on, works very well.
Point is, teams of 3 are awkward. The hog is too bulky for anything but Hemorrhage. And Hemorrhage is a boring map.
I think 343i should either change it back to the old multi-team, or add the old version as a second playlist.
Speak your mind on the old and new of this playlist.
