Voting

You guys need to take swatnums out or make it a voting system again because magnums in swat is dumb. DMRs and BRs only. MAKE VOTING POSSIBLE AGAIN

Voting for maps / gametypes is not a feature of Halo 5 and isn’t something that is going to be added 4 years after its release.

This would have been nice years ago but like the previous poster said there’s no chance this is happening this late in its life cycle.

Hasn’t swat with magnums been around in past games?

Just Halo 4.

Almost positive Reach had it too.

Goes back further than that. If I recall h2 swat had a pistols variant.

They aren’t going to put in a voting system/veto system because you don’t like a specific game type, nor are they going to remove a variant because one person doesn’t like it.

They aren’t going to make significant changes to h5 at this point. And personally voting should never return. I’ll crib from myself; Voting is awful. Having to play on the same maps over and over again either because they are popular or someone thinks they have an exploit or having that team of four decide what you play because you’re playing with randoms.
Veto isn’t much better as when something different comes up you not only have it vetoed and end up playing on the same map over and over again you also have somebody screaming ‘veto map or game mode x’ Having a map rotation system is the best imo. Ideally I would alter it so that the same map never got chosen twice in a row provided you stayed in the lobby, but overall it’s the best system.

Again your personal disdain for a game type isn’t a reason to change it. I’m sure a simple search would turn up quite a lot of people who prefer the pistol variants.

You’d have a better chance by making your case in the MM Feedback thread for having Swatnums at a lower weighting so it doesn’t come up as often.

Thank you for your excellent post. You took the words right out of my mouth.

Disagree pretty badly with the voting debacle, cause I’ve seen people get the same map and sometimes same mode 5 (or more) times in a row on MCC, WAY more than what usually happens on the voting or vetoing side of things, sure that may be pretty far and between but the fact it still happens isn’t exactly what I would call a system with less of the same maps. On the flip-side though, it does allow for more rare maps and modes to pop up, so in some ways its good but in some ways its pretty bad, so calling it the best is a bit of a stretch. I’d say veto was the best personally since it was a choice rather than being stuck with something that you may’ve already played, it might not get veto’d by everyone but its still worth a try, it’s more just the weighting of certain maps and modes that needs to be a bit more balanced if those were the issues with vetoing and especially with the no voting we have now, it doesn’t happen multiple times in a row to me usually on this game, but some maps do pop up more than others after a few number of games.

Repeats rarely occur in H5 though. Responding to the post above mine…
