so no one knows if the new maps are going to be in Team Hardcore? They better. Harcore is the best playlist.

I think they should have 1v1 and clans matches. otherwise whats the point of even having clans?

That sucks, everything in that update was bad, especially the playlists. Why the hell are you making BTB and Rumble Pit unranked?! That not only leaves us with just 5 ranked playlists but also cuts off a large amount of the halo population.

Also, why did you even bother saying that the new maps would be for hardcore fans too, if you won't even bother putting them into Team Hardcore why say that? You just said it to increase the hype which is NOT COOL! Whoever came up with these ideas BLOWS!

i have talked to a lot of peolpe on halo 2 xbl. I have come to the conclusion that many think SWAT should come back as a ranked game. Me and others are also wondering why it was changed to unrank.

I'm sorry I have to say this, I like you guys really, but you have to wonder, 'Are you folks at Bungie actually listening to any of us at the moment?' Anyone can look at the forums and see that this new playlist thing sucks, in the views of the entire halo community you're trying to help, this idea sucks!

It's very upsetting to hear about the new matchmaling playlist. I really liked btb and now that you guys are making it unranked it's not going to be taken as seriously anymore. You guys should reconsider making btb unranked because I have been reading the posts on this and it looks like there is alot of other people that are pissed off and not just me. I doubt that I am really going to be listened by you guys, but im just putting in my 2 cents.

If there's one thing I have learned in working with you, it's that there is always margin for error.

You guys should reconsider making btb unranked

when you say btb, i assume you mean BTB Skirmish, correct? BTB slayer is already unranked. i think thats what has Mr. Zero a tad confused. basic text can make covnversations difficult to say the least, lol.

I usually don't post but I wanted to at least let my vote be heard that I WANT BUNGIE TO KEEP BTB RANKED!

It's a really fun playlist especially when it is ranked, its a place where you can go after fine-tuning/warming up in Slayer/Rumble Pit/Hardcore. You can really see how effective you are in the game when you do this. Now I probably wont play BTB anymore, lots of quitters and people won't play seriously.


THANK you. every vote, if we can rally them together, counts.

What are you going to do with those huge maps for BTB now? Playing 3/4 vs 3/4 Slayer on Headlong will definitely suck and will have scores of like 24-20 because it will take forever to find someone to kill... "THIS IS HALO, NOT GEARS OF WAR"
nice Gears ref.

dude, its just 4 bucks. i hope that if you have Halo 2, an Xbox 360, an online connection, and a room w/ electricty to play it in (plus Halo 3), you can squeeze out 4 more bucks. i think that flippin bout the new (gonna be awesome) maps pricetag is missing the bigger issue here.
oh well. i guess ur sig and random use of foul language gives us a little insight on your present merchandise-aquiring beliefs/morals, anyways.

I like the fact there is no cheating now and also the new maps are sweet! Awesome update although we could use a little bit of spice in the matchmaking playlists. Maybe Clan match/1v1 back? =D lol

F-that, I'd rather have all the old maps, and no dled maps, while still retaining BTB skirmish in its proper ranked self! F bungie, F those idiots who made the maps, F microsoft for pressuring bungie into this. This is how games die a quiet death, when their life was so rich. Goodbye Halo 2, it was fun while it lasted.

  • 04.16.2007 10:26 PM PDT

well i agree with u, but the main thing is my mom wont pay at all for the update, even the $4.this should be free if it is requiered for matchmaking

im going to have to agree with the guys on this thread and say that bungie or whoever is in charge of all this is seriously killing the game for the veterans


just because they want hype for halo 3 they are obviously trying to attract first time gamers and nubbs by making everything unranked... reseting the ranks.... just seems harder to take anything seriously anymore....

it was fun though...


too bad everybody quits out of unranked stuff

RP unranked?

What are you thinking?

First you take out 1v1...

Now RP?

Bad idea...

Some people cant get a team together to get high lvl's in team game types...

you just took away the one thing kids without teams have...

that was a bad bad bad idea...

seriously, think about it.

The only thing i was looking forward to do was play RP right when the lvl's reset...

now i can't do that!

unranked = no skill lvl match up and no rewards for being good at it...

people quit unranked games! and sometimes just don't play...

bring back the rank or a lot of kids that don't have teams will stop playing...

seriously.

Three things:
-Play custom games of any size.
-Playlists can change again for the better.
-And whining like babies won't get you to be taken seriously.
