Again. Us SWAT players get to suffer some more. Personally, I do really hope they remove all of these updates when the new Halo 4 come’s out. Seriously, I just want Reach to go back to the way it was before 343i stepped into the picture. Move all these update’s to the new Halo 4 and put Reach back to the original form. Oh, and one more thing 343i, get yourself a new Ban Hammer like what Bungie used to have. Your killing Reach. Between the Spawn Killer’s and the A-hole’s who think its awesome to shoot through walls, floors, and ceilings, its pretty much becoming more and more unbearable to play anymore. You took out Uncaged and Pinnacle, yet left in Asylum? The least you could do is maybe throw in Cliffhanger and Atom. And when we were all complaining about the spawn killings, we were mainly asking if you could possibly take a little time out of your busy days to rearrange the spawn points and maybe even add a few extra things in the maps to help prevent spawn killing? Sure, there’s a few of us that are glad to see them maps gone, but now we have to deal with Asylum over, and over, and over again. You guys completely ignore Swat and Snipers.There’s no Super Jackpot, no new maps, no new game types, no new nothing, whatsoever! I’m Begin to think you people HATE Swat and Snipers. If you need someone to build you Swat/Sniper maps, my Fiance and I are more than happy to take on that challenge. He’s been building Swat maps for quite sometime now. All we need is just a little bit of a chance for it. It’s really not that much to ask. And please, please, please put Rumble Pit back the way it once was. Seriously, there’s no need to change Slayer Pro to just DMR’s and Frag’s. That used to be one of my favorite gametypes and favorite playlist until you had to screw it up as well. Enough with the T.U. And I agree with Santanic Script, its the least you could do. Make two separate categories. One with all your T.U. and the other with the ORIGINAL playlist’s without T.U. So I leave you now to think about what I said. Start paying attention to your costumer’s or your not going to last very long with Halo.
“shooting though walls” that’s a slow connection. Nothing to be fixed by game developers.
> “shooting though walls” that’s a slow connection. Nothing to be fixed by game developers.
Agreed but could EASILY be fixed by XBL.

How exactly? XBL and people’s ISPs often have zero interaction between one another. Lag lays primarily in the domain of the quality of one’s ISP. The people at XBL could do next to nothing about it.

That is absolutely wrong. Easiest solution is to get rid of all overseas matchmaking. Get rid of all South American MM EXCEPT in South America. We all know that’s absolutely horrid to begin with. Do the same with Cali, ridiculous host, and confine all MM to within 1500 miles, also dictate the bandwidth allowed for MM so that no one has overbearing advantages over opponents.
It really is that simple to get the quality into it. Took me all of 3 mins. Wow. And yes, that can be done. Takes about oh, say, less time than it took me to type this.

As simple as that is supposed to be, you are asking for longer wait time to be matched with opponents. Also, that’s why you select “good connection”

Lemme explain something to you. When you select “good connection” it simply means that you prefer OTHER players who are also looking for good connection. It’s a BS stunt meant to confuse people into thinking that’s actually what’s going to happen. It’s absolutely un-ethical the way they operate.

The majority of the players I play with now are either from the west coast, or England. Being in the east coast United States, how would not having overseas matchmaking work? I mean, I hate Italian an Mexican slumber parties as much as the next guy, but removing overseas matchmaking is not the option.
Preferring “good connection” does not only match you with others who have, too. You’re confusing the Psyche Profile with Search Restrictions.

Exactly how much do you want to bet? I’ll go 7 digits.

On what? Search restrictions?
I’m just taking TF2 hats at the moment, thanks.

Ask one of the mods exactly what that means for MM. When you tell me exactly what I just told you what it means, say “Yes sir, you were right”

Considering moderators are just forum kids with special privileges, and don’t really control matchmaking, nor are 343 employees.

Not that easy son, do your research and then come back and say “Yes sir, you were right”. Next time you try to question me, know what youre talking about.

lol
Show me where it says “search restrictions only work with other players using the same selections.” Maybe then I’ll believe you.

Spawnkilling and lag are not bannable offences.
> Start paying attention to your costumer’s or your not going to last very long with Halo.
Paying attention to their customers is why they released the TU in the first place.

Hi Irish Elf I agree with you 1000% 343I seems to not treat Swat well. Except to make a boneheaded decision to remove two very popular maps with giving us Swat players anything new to play. I’ve been arguing this for over a month now that we need more maps. Whether it be the return of Pinnacle and Uncaged, new community generated maps, or whatever, Swat desperately needs new maps. I used to play 4-5 times a week, but I’ve played about once in the last month. I have better things to waste my time on than playing the same 2 maps (usually Reflection and Asylum) over and over again.
Irish Elf there are a number of threads on this section concerning this issue, can you please comment on those as well? It would be much appreciated!

I live on the West Coast of the US, and I play with friends from all around the world. The point of matchmaking is to do just that: allow people to play with other people from all across the world.
> Do the same with Cali, ridiculous host
Gee, thanks…

Whats your issue ese? Gonna need a source on your assertions. The most we know about it is that it was stated that for halo 3 “prefer good connection” limited your search to a 200ms radius from yourself. I cant imagine it would be any different in reach. The mechanism you describe would be stupid and wouldnt even work to limit latency.
You seem awfully worked up dont you chum? Have a seat for a minute and contemplate life. You might have an epiphany. And i never thought id say this, but leave sitristhal alone ¬_¬
Why would you want Asylum removed over Uncaged and Pinnacle?
