Worse than halo 2 and that game was crap too.
Whoever programmed the spawning system is a complete tool, and the new beatdown system is -blam!- -blam!-, i dunno if this was to try and compensate for the host advantage issues but if it was Bungie did a terrible job, the person with the most health wins the beat-down apparently which is -blam!- why not just have the person that presses the B button first win the melee like Halo 2, fair enough there will be host advantage issues but it worked a hell of a lot better than the new halo 3 beatdown system. another thing bungie should add a 'report cheating' feature in which you have to provide evendence that you were cheated on to get the game anulled, because the halo series has always been full of immature ten year olds who think cheating to get the highest rank is cool, its crap
my conclusion is that this game is more frustrating than fun, and an overrated piece of -blam!-

Despite of this being in the totally wrong forum I have to agree with you on the spawn issue. Ive always been a big fan of pre-set spawns like the ones in R6V for example so I thought it was bad in H2 but H3 just takes it one step further in the wrong direction. Ive finally reached my officer rank though and being the achievment whore that ive turned into lately i can now stop playing MM and move on. Its what ive been saying the entire time, Halo (in all its versions) is the main FPS when it comes to narrowing down the gap between good and bad players and it does so through insane stuff like the spawn system. It doesnt matter how good a player is his or her k/d ratio is going to be affected by people they just killed spawning 3 feet behind them before the shield is up and in the end its affecting the outcome of games.

Another thing im having, or had since im never going to play the game again, a big problem with is the host-selection. Numerous games are laggy to the extent where it isnt possible to play and this in a system that Bungie is claiming to pick the best host. I bet that several of these hosts that are selected doesnt have the connection to keep their own game running smoothly on someone elses host. Thats not the worst part because there im sitting with a great connection in the country that is currently no 2 in the world after Japan when it comes to the fastest connections and im never getting host. I just dont get it. In R6V for example where the host is the one setting up the lobby im usually hosting my american friends becasue they think my connection is better than if any of the other americans in the lobby should host,,,does that make sense,
