even though taking out BTB skirmish was bad, there are a whole lot more things that i can think of that bungie shouldn't have done.

1. Putting maps in matchmaking
I don't see what is wrong with this. The new maps should be in matchmaking.

2. Taking out BTB
Yes, taking out BTB did suck, but I didn't play it anyway. Bungie knows best, so live with it or leave.

3. Not making new maps free
I'm not a cheap -blam!- so I can afford the maps. It's $4.50 people!

4. Making matches 15 minutes now
I didn't even know they did this until now. Personaly, I think they should have left it at 10 minutes.

I vote number 4, for obvious reasons.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Putting new maps in matchmaking: The new maps wern't a mistake, they're some of the best maps I've played.

Taking out BTB Skirmish: Ya, that really sucked. I used to have games all the time with my clan, and it was all out fun. One gametype where you needed teamwork to rank up.

Not making the new maps free: Um, they are in July. And when they came out, they obviously wouldn't be free, they worked hard on them, and Certain Affinity needs money in order to fund future products.

Making Matches 15 minutes now: How is this even a bad thing? I didn't even notice.

I agree it toke skill too, but it didn't center around team work as much as everyone had a better weapon so they didn't have to rely on eachother as much. Also I find BTB funner because of the bigger maps.

Matchmaking lists come and go, and sometimes come back.... They have the numbers to look at. They're not removing things to torture people.

I don't think that the options above were mistakes. Their mistake was the lack of communication in the beginning on why they hadn't integrated the new maps into matchmaking when they said that they would. Obviously it was the download problem and the invisible walls on Tombstone, but they cleared up the download problems (or at least claimed to, I never had a problem in the first place with download) and still didn't implement the maps. Obviously there was a problem and they refused to talk about it until the last minute. That was their mistake. They could have prevented a lot of complaining if they had said from the beginning that they wanted to make sure about the downloading AND wanted to fix the bugs on Tombstone.

I hated BTB, I dont know why everybody loved it so much. I mean, it was laggy, there were quitters, it was just garbage.

their biggest misake was making the games 15 mins long.

and as far mistakes go its a small one! bungie do things that are going to be suitable for the majority of players.. i am one so think bungie are doing a great job!

stop being a -blam!- and play the game for the fun it is

What about making Rumble Pit unranked? That's the only thing that's really pissed me off about the update.
