anybody else think it kinda sucks to not see other players gamertags or ranks in the pre game lobby? i really wish they would change that … it was always fun in other games to trash talk your opponents right before the match also.
yup
T3hee I totally agree!! I was really hoping they would add that feature too.
I agree and have the ability to mute while in the lobby, would be big for me.
This has been a huge issue for Halo players since the game released, but 343 seem reluctant to address it. There’s absolutely no point in having ranks and customisable armour if other players can’t view these in the lobby.
Please adress this issue 343i… This was the worst decision wich I believe was done to make it more casual and children friendly. I never heard people grief new player’s over rank in Halo like I have in Gears of War 
I like a visual representation of how much my fellow Spartan’s have played
We need ranks beside our names again.

This.
Well it might turn a few people off when they see who they are up against as well. I just matched with almost a full lobby of Unranked in Slayer before and I’m a Plat. Probably still quite a few Unranked since reset though I guess.
You obviously didn’t play the BETA. The matching system will often put a team of high ranks against a team of low ranks, probably because of other factors like connection, population, etc. In those cases in the BETA people would quit in the pre-game lobby before the match started, or quit after it started. I saw gold ranks go up against Onyx and Semi-Pro ranks and those matches are just a slaughter. To “encourage” people to finish games they took that out of the pre-game lobby, but really it’s a problem with the matching system itself if it was so prevalent that such unbalanced teams would be put together.
Even I did it. No way in Hewl am I going to go up against someone a whole 3 divisions above me. That’s just ludicrous. But nope, we gotta play nice because we should just resign ourselves to cannon fodder and finish games like good children and see our stats and w/l ratios tank into oblivion.
youre right i did not play the beta… and in ranked i dont really care as much about this feature but in social??? cmon now … we should be able to see every players rank and gamertags and armor etc…
This also the Reason, why you don’t see the Rank in Counter-Strike. Because most Gamers are way too much over this ranking, so if you’re a lower rank, they bash you or even leave the Game, because they don’t want to play with such lowrankings. They did the right thing, rank should only been shown after Match…
Seeing ranks is one thing but can we get a mute or be able to see their armor? I don’t care about seeing theiron rank. I never used to look at the rank anyways. I’d look at k/d but not their rank
People are more likely to leave the lobby if they see they will be going up against a high ranked player. I think they made the right choice by not revealing that type of information right before the match starts. I do think they need to update the post game carnage reports to show a bit more info like your nemesis and medals so forth and so on.
This is still an issue. (Mostly not being able to see other Spartans’ armor)
