New Search Preference (Matchmaking)

Since Halo:Reach’s launch we’ve learned some interesting and new changes within the community and of its dark secrets.The Matchmaking arena has become less and less friendlier and it’s not going to get any better.By which I mean all the vulgar Pre-made lobbies and such.

So to this, I introduce an idea to unravel the circumstance.

The “Lone Wolf” preference.
Basically when you have this preference selected you will only match make with 1 player lobbies, thus reducing any illogical match makes with such groups.
If you have the preference unselected or have a Pre-made lobby of your own the system, If it upgrades to such degree, will give you a higher probability of matching with other Pre-made lobbies.

Giving a slight fairness to the battlefield.

Though the name doesn’t necessarily have to be “Lone Wolf” any other cool name should be fine. Same difference.

I think this is a nice idea! Also, I love those little red hearts. :slight_smile:

This would be great. I play by myself 90% of the time, so this would eliminate getting grouped with parties of 80 people.

How about it’s always set so when you go in as a full team, you pair against a full team, and when when you go in with 2 people you only get groups of 2 people, etc etc

It should try and, to this, to an extent.

The only search preference I want is a regional filter.

That said I have nothing against youre idea for people who complain about matching parties.

I suggest newer matchmaking filters so players can detail every:

  1. Toggle On/Off Gametypes.

  2. Toggle On/Off Maps.

It would help matching and return player choice. See I love CTF/Flag & Assault but I don’t like King of the Hill or Oddball. I’d like to filter my choices so I’m not stuck with what other players vote for.

After all I bought the game why can’t I choose to play what I want?

I really like this idea. As Procelyte said, I play alone the majority of the time, as well. It would be nice to have an even-leveled playing field for once. No longer would I have to be in a 4v4 against a full party that utilizes communication while my team is mic-less…
