The Lobby is terrible

  • You told us we would have visible ranks at once, they were in beta, but now gone.
  • You can’t see who’s on your team in pre game lobby - Cant click on their Spartan Card in lobby and completely different UI from beta, but very limited - I hear people talk before and after game, but there is no icon before nor after, also after game all the players aren’t showing up

I just want them to straight up copy Reach’s menu. It was literally perfect. It was elegant, unintrusive, but would still give you all the information you needed.

Agreed, it had the best lobby

yeah its crap, hope they update it.

Agreed. It would be nice to see some names and maybe ranks while in the lobby.

This is a legitimate problem at the moment and they really need to fix it, I am not sure if I have seen a worse pre game lobby.

I was disgusted when I first saw it. How can I judge my team or the opposing team pre game? Why can I not even look through their stats? I always love checking out K/D and W/L.

As mentioned earlier, a Reach style UI would be perfect.

Its total and utter bullcrap. The lobby is such a big disappointment. :frowning:

Also makes me wonder what the point in stances are if you cant view a player card.

Its…awful.

Hahaha, good point! I think I only saw my own stance once clicking on the after game stats. Reach’s UI was a natural evolution of Halo 3’s. The lobby system in this game is even worse than the Halo 4 one. Why can’t we even see gamertags!?

What gets me the most is how I can still here the players after the match right up until I join the new lobby.

Exactly, I keep hearing people, but I don’t see any of them. Worse than MCC lobby lol, which could actually show real people and their Service record

Good to know I’m not the only one irritated with this! The pregame lobby was very important, being able to just see how others stand in the rankings against you before a game is what makes the rank meaningful. With the current set up, it’s intrinsically motivated, who the hell plays a video game to make themselves feel better? Hell no, it’s all about destroying others and showing you’re the best, claiming dominance, hence the longing need everyone has had for the ranking system. Please bring back the pregame lobby from the past.

P.S. Don’t psychoanalyze my post, just being funny/serious.

I really hope they fix this eventually. It’s a huge problem with the game I’m pretty surprised they didn’t address (especially considering how Multiplayer-focused this one is).

I agree that Reach’s was the best since then it seems like they keep taking a step in the wrong direction when it comes tot he pre game lobbie, the one in beta was better than his one.

I agree, I dislike it. When you’re with a party you can see other people SR rank and only see their Arena rank in the stats report after the game. Whats the point of having a rank if you can’t show it off? :b

This one has a legit gripe. I was wondering if I needed to get to a certain level to actually see everyone. I too hear people talking, don’t know their levels, don’t know who is talking, no votes on maps. Its a bizarre scene…or lack of a scene. I actually didn’t post this because I thought I just needed to get to a certain level or I was doing something wrong.

Wait so it is different than it was in the beta? Now you can not see the other player cards, stances, or stats? I wonder if they did that to prevent people from quitting in the lobby. I cant even count the amount of times in the beta someone would judge their team or the other team stats, and leave. Happened MANY times.

i like looking at peoples sparbies! It’s nice to see what armor people are using, stats, commendations progess, armory completion, etc…
