Honestly everyone i play with agrees on why BTB is slow or low in population..Weekend seems to be when population gets high...which is also the same time Double EXP comes out. and that alone sucks Huge chunks of population from all playlists. Im a 48, pretty much if i can get matches everyone can. I love Ranked Big Team if they removed this i dont know if i would enjoy halo near as much...if they reduced the amount of time Double EXP was out this would increase BTB alot. BTB population used to be 4,000+ occasionally when Double is out i havent seen it over 2,000. I havent seen any problems with NAT or anything the only thing that stops me from getting matches if lack of players at certain levels. and alot of players want to get there rank up, so Double EXP does that fast. wants the ranks up they will come back to whatever it is including BTB. Also i've been seening names in BTB getting past 40 that i havent seen before so there are more players getting up there. Big team social is in my opinion a mess, i cant play it...why...since there are huge differences in peoples skill level the only thing i get to do in social btb is kill for about 3-4 minutes and the other team quits. Ranked....people dont quit near as often and i get to play people my own skill, not level 30s and down with 3 guests, no offense to them but it's there way to easy to beat over and over. making it well boring...i assume it is for them also. So when they go to Ranked they play people like themselves.
reducing the Double EXP by a day or changing it to a weekend special that isnt double EXP it would increase population greatly.
