I am a living poison. A soul so black and withered and tainted by pain and hatred that it consumes my very being. Do not test me; If I strike, my venom will surely kill you before you can open your mouth to cry for help.
And to all the complainers: If you bothered to read the update details, you could likely reason why the playlists are not exactly as you might want them. It is clearly explained that the reason for BTB being temporarily downsized is to give the matchmaking system time to map out good hosts. This in turn makes it clear that Bungie expects matchmaking to behave as it always does, meaning: Any time matchmaking goes through any sort of reset or major update or maintenance, the entire process gets kinda rough for a bit. You can imagine then, that a couple thousand people online becoming a couple hundred thousand people online over the course of just a mere day or so would put a big strain on the system. Clearly this means that big team, having the most players, will have the most problems. Just as they are giving it time to settle before making it full-scale, they are likely doing the same before bothering to rank it, in order to help balance the initial ranking of new players as much as possible, among other reasons. If you pay attention to Bungie's history during Halo 2's reign, you will see that they have constantly changed rankings, playlists, and various other things to suit what the statistics tell them people want. if you honestly think Bungie cannot see that a lot of people want a lot of changes, you might want to reconsider your position. As a few other people have said already, JUST GIVE IT SOME TIME. TRY the new list before you judge it. Give Bungie your opinion POLITELY- AFTER you try things out. This is a different game. New gametypes. New weapons. If you want more of the exact same, then keep playing Halo 2. Otherwise, try out the new list and let Bungie know what you think accordingly. I promise all of you, that if you give it time, and everyone gives Bungie proper feedbak, that in a short time, the playlists will begin to shape themselves to public demand, courtesy of Bungie. If you really dislike it all so much, then shut up and don't buy the game. It's that simple. For the rest of you.....see you in 26 hours.
