When I saw that 343 was giving extra credit bonuses to the team who won team objective games, I quickly got on and started playing the playlist. I’ve always been a big fan of objective games, but the credits were never the best. So this made me excited to start this playlist up again. But there is a HUGE problem that I cannot stand with this playlist, and that’s the fact that I get matched up against teams of 5 over and over again when I go in by myself. It makes those games completely one sided, with the team of 5 spawn killing for the whole time limit without trying to finish the game.
I would REALLY appreciate it if you’d require teams of 5 to match up against other teams of 5. Or any other batch of players that go in. I like to go into the playlist with a friend of mine, and I think it is only fair that we go up against other teams of 2. We occasionally get a good game where there are teams of 2, 3, or lone wolves which turn out to be good games, but then we get matched up against ANOTHER team of 5 right after. I hope that someone can fix this system. I think it will make everything more fair, and much more competitive.
Thank you

They could put big team matching on like Super Slayer, but I don’t see if happening, when playing, try and befriend those on the other team, see if in the future, you can run some lobbies with them, I’ve tried it in the past, it does work.
The real problem is the sheer lack of people playing in parties. There are few actual parties of 5 searching, so they would float around in matchmaking forever waiting to play with another party of 5. The system has no choice but to pit you against them for no other reason than convenience and speed. This is why Reach’s ranking and matchmaking system needs a huge overhaul. Even though its WAY too late for that. One could hope though!

I don’t think that is the case because I run into teams of 5 every other game. It’s not like this is a random occurrence.
And I’ve started doing that, The Little Moa. It’s hard though when I’m against a team of 5 and my team has a guy with a guest who isn’t very good. But I am making progress. Just picked up a guy who helped beat a full team with me. Thank you 
I mean all you really can do is play with more friends or people that you know are good. I can’t really say too much because I run Team Objective with a party of 5 lol. If you want someone to play with then add me, I’ll help ya out.
Objective doesn’t have the population to support party restrictions. All it would end up doing is punishing teams with incredibly long search times just because they chose to play with friends.
It’s pretty easy to find people to play with online. If you don’t want to deal with randoms then you don’t have to.
Yes its should look for teams of similar size first but not limited to Teams …
IE — teams vs. teams when available but not if the wait time is longer then regular.
I agree with you 100% Funzbob
