Why ordnances in FFA ?

Ordnances are random wich bring luck in the game wich is not something we (I) want in Halo. They can make the paylists they want in a social matchmaking but in ranked, competitive playlists, it needs to be fair. Either split the matchmaking in half with socials and ranked, or call the game a social fest and dont put CSR.

Halo is a esport, get ready to lose all your competitive fans or deal with it.

I like ordinance in FFA.

I dont hate it, it can be a lot of fun in many playlists, I just think it doesnt have his place in any ranked, competitive, playlist.

I’m pretty competitive and don’t mind it.

you’ve done any tournaments ? Do you play MLG ? there is no chance in the world that ordnances ever show up in a MLG playlist unless they are not random… why ? because the less luck there is, the more skill is involved and the better it is. Imagine a MLG final with a 1 million dollars price ending 50-48 because one team got an incineration cannon in their ordnance twice in a row at the end… Most MLG players will agree with me on that.

I’m not saying all playlists should be replaced with MLG, but ranked playlists should at least be as fair as possible, right now, there is no social, only ranked playlists, so, like I said, they either need to split the matchmaking in half or they will lose a ton of players like me, who like to play competitively.

So tournaments and MLG are the only form of competition in gaming?

In Free-for-all, it’s fine. It’s a mess to begin with. In teams however, you’re right, it should go. I haven’t played a tournament, but i’ll admit the MLG gametypes in all games but Halo Reach were fun.

Yeah man, do you even lift? If you don’t lift, MLG, or tourney, then you best get outta here! :wink:

I dont think you get my point, you can play competitive in social games and action sack if you want, but if its ranked, it should be as fair as possible and the same rules apply in tournaments and MLG. But since there no social playlist in halo 4, we can consider everything both ranked and social and both competitive and layback I guess. FFA was the gametype i’ve been waiting for since the release, but it goes straight in the social part of the game since for me.

Ordinance is fine in FFA. Random Ordinance is not. The game should have been setup with Ordinance Tiers going from weak to strong with rewards consistent thereto.
