Well, I’ve tried so many times to convey this in a productive light but 343i are allergic to good decision making so why bother? Why is the matchmaking system absolutely unable to balance teams in a manner that makes sense? I’m either searching with a friend and getting 25 points each out of the 50 with the opponents being literally brand new to playing MCC, or I’m having to solo carry 3 players without functioning hands (or from this thread https://forums.halowaypoint.com/t/getting-absolutely-destroyed-in-every-match-on-halo-3/510467/28) against a team of 4 people that know how to play.
I understand that 343i has a fetishisation about dismantling Halo, but if there is at least one person employed there that actually wants this game to maintain a population, then I suggest implementing the basic training playlist from OG Halo 3 or actually allowing players to search focused. I’m more than happy to wait 5 minutes to have a match where everyone in the lobby is decent.
As it’s a good idea, I know that this goes against the philosophy of the company so I don’t expect it to be implemented but I still suggest being bold and actually doing something good for the franchise for the first time in a decade. It’s a subject a little less trivial than someone with Halo posters in their bedroom talking about elite armour or whatever, but please try.
